Study Days at Hogwarts

The freshmen didn't have to wait long before Professor McGonagall came back. She asked the freshmen to line up in single file and then led them into the auditorium.

The college's auditorium is large, with four long tables filled with students. Hundreds of candles floated above everyone's heads, and the candlelight illuminated the entire auditorium.

The candle flame is also some kind of magic fire, otherwise the picture of the candles dripping wax above the head would not be too beautiful.

While all kinds of weird thoughts were pouring out of Albert's head, the team had already arrived at a stool with a dirty and torn hat on it.

It is said that this is Gryffindor's hat.

"I really hope they can clean the Sorting Hat properly." Albert disliked the Sorting Hat a little because it was so dirty. Maybe it was because it had been there for a thousand years, or maybe no one had ever cleaned the hat.

It's really unbearable.

When Albert came to his senses, the Sorting Hat had finished its customary opening song amidst the applause of everyone.

Professor McGonagall held a roll of parchment and began to roll the names and sort them into different schools.

Of course, Albert was the first to be named. Who told him that the first letter of his last name was "a".

In full view of everyone, Albert stepped forward, sat on the chair, and let Professor McGonagall put the hat on his head.

"Not going to Slytherin, not going to Slytherin."

Although he knew that the possibility of going to Slytherin was slim, he still whispered a few words to prevent himself from accidentally falling into the pit.

"Well, it's difficult. I can see that you have courage, a good heart, talent, and wisdom." The Sorting Hat asked softly, "Besides Slytherin, where do you want to go?"

Albert was speechless. Did the Sorting Hat mean that he was suitable for any house except Slytherin?

"Oh, I think you have made your choice, then..."

"Gryffindor." When the Sorting Hat called out Gryffindor, Albert knew what its so-called choice was.

If the people he met in the carriage were not the twins and Lee Jordan, but students from two other colleges, he would probably go to another college.

The Sorting Hat finally helped him make his choice.

After all, Albert will stay in the academy for another seven years. He doesn't want to be the original Hermione, without a single friend. How tragic that would be.

Of course, there are also night outings, and twins are undoubtedly the best night outing companions.

After the Sorting Hat called Gryffindor, the table on the far left erupted in cheers.

However, the twins and Lee Jordan in the team couldn't help but talk loudly. They didn't expect that Albert would be sorted into Gryffindor.

What about Ravenclaw?

After Professor McGonagall took away the hat, Albert walked in the direction of the cheers. The front row of the long table was vacated, obviously for freshmen.

When Albert passed by, several people stood up and shook hands with him. The other person still had a badge on his chest. He was probably a prefect or the president of the student union.

He shook hands with several people one by one and responded with a smile and nod.

The sorting ceremony was still going on. After the Sorting Hat called out Slytherin, Albert turned his attention back to the Sorting Hat. When Professor McGonagall read Cedric Diggory, he looked at the novelist curiously. The cannon fodder inside.

The other party is still a handsome boy, no wonder he is called a naughty boy, but I don’t know if the other party will become a tragedy. After all, this time I have my little butterfly fanning the flames.

As expected, the Weasley twins were indeed sorted into Gryffindor. A red-haired man was very happy about this and waved to the twins. Albert also took a closer look and saw that it should be the legendary Perseus. West Weasley.

By the way, the Weasley twins were at the bottom. After they were sorted into Gryffindor, the sorting ceremony ended. Professor McGonagall rolled up the parchment and left with the sorting hat, as well as the bench. Disappeared.

"Wow! We thought you would be assigned to Ravenclaw." Both the twins and Li Jordan stared at Albert with exaggerated expressions, as if they were looking at some rare animal.

This person was not sorted into Ravenclaw. Is the Sorting Hat broken?

"Is it weird?" Albert disagreed, "By the way, I just discovered a secret about the Sorting Hat."

"What secret?" Li Qiaodan asked curiously.

"If you tell me, it won't be called a secret." Albert didn't plan to tell them, "This is also the reason why I was sorted into Gryffindor."

Albert's eyes swept across everyone's faces and he couldn't help but shake his head, "I made it so clear, but no one guessed it. Should I say that I really deserve to be a Gryffindor?"

However, everyone no longer paid attention to this so-called secret. After the sorting was over, it was Dumbledore's turn to give a speech, and then they had a feast.

"Welcome..." Dumbledore looked at the students with a smile and stretched out his arms to them, "Welcome to Hogwarts, the new semester has begun! Before the banquet begins, I would like to say a few words. That is: "Idiot, cry-noser, scrap, screw." thank you all!"

It’s really just a few words.

The gap, this is the gap!

Compared to those guys who talk a lot of nonsense, Dumbledore understands the minds of freshmen and knows that they don't have the patience to listen to nonsense.

"Do you know the meaning of those sentences?" Albert turned his head and asked the prefect beside him.

The prefect who was asked by Albert had a stiff expression, and obviously didn't know how to answer this question.

At this moment, the prefect suddenly felt that the Weasley just said was right. This guy should go to Ravenclaw instead of staying in Gryffindor.

"It seems that no one knows this anymore, so we can only ask him himself?" Albert murmured. These sentences can be regarded as unsolved mysteries in the Harry Potter novels.

The mouth corners of the people nearby twitched when they heard this, and they didn't know what to say. Is this person planning to ask Dumbledore directly?

No Ravenclaw student is as eager for knowledge as you are!

This is definitely an eagle hiding among the lions.

Hey, someone, hurry up and throw this guy onto the table next door!

Ignoring the strange looks from others, Albert fell into deep thought.

In a previous life, there were several interpretations of these sentences on the Internet:

Rumor has it that the Latin meaning of those words is: May Merlin bless you.

Of course, some people think that it is the different attitudes of the four colleges towards people.

Ravenclaw students think that anyone who does not enter Ravenclaw is an idiot.

Gryffindor students think that others are less brave than they are.

Slytherin students consider half-bloods or mudbloods to be useless scraps.

Hufflepuff students hope students from other houses will adjust their behavior.

As for what the truth is, Albert doesn't know. Maybe he will have a chance to know the truth and learn it from Dumbledore.

boom!

Lightning suddenly struck the roof of the castle, and the climate magic that was cast suddenly failed.

This scene really shocked everyone.

Dumbledore pulled out his wand and used magic on the top of his head. The lightning and thunder disappeared, the heavy rain also disappeared, and everyone's heads turned into a starry night sky again.

"Okay, the banquet begins." Dumbledore raised his spoon, tapped the cup, and announced that the banquet had begun. As if by magic, the plates on the table were instantly filled with food.
