Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 649: The choice of sorting hat
"Oh, yes...Gryffindor!"
The sorting ceremony has already begun. Whether it is the freshmen in front of the stage or the veterans under the stage, they are all looking forward to it at this moment. You know, for every more outstanding student in the college, the college is likely to get more college points.
Beside the high stool, Maca looked at every freshman who sat on the stool with a smile, and sincerely wished them a good school life. In front of him, a scroll of parchment was floating leisurely, and the list of new students for this school year was registered on it.
Receiving the sorting hat from the little girl who was sorted into Gryffindor College, Maca nodded at her, and then glanced at the parchment.
"Next," he said aloud, "Sarah Hornheim."
As Maca reported her name, Sarah immediately walked out of the freshmen queue in front of the faculty seat. I have to say that her petite and lovely appearance is enough to make everyone concentrate on it. If she can always maintain the well-behaved reservedness she is today, she will definitely not be afraid of not following the male classmates behind her **** in the future.
"...Please sit down!"
When Sarah walked to the high stool, Maca reached out and gestured.
"Thank you."
Sarah leaned slightly towards Maca, then turned around and sat on the stool, so Maca quickly buckled the sorting hat on top of her head. As soon as the hat fell on her head, there was a sudden whisper.
"Huh?" The Sorting Hat murmured in a confused voice, "Excellent wisdom and knowledge, and the mental will that surprises the Hat... There is a little bookworm? Huh... Talent! Excellent talent! It's a pity... Talent is not a talent, it really makes the hat feel a pity..."
The muttering of the Sorting Hat is very soft, but others may not be able to hear it clearly, but Sarah herself can obviously hear it. When she heard the phrase "talent is not a talent", her eyes moved instantly.
"Where should I be assigned?" She suddenly spoke, interrupting the whisper of the Sorting Hat.
"Oh, do you still need to talk about it?" The sorting hat twisted its tip and shouted happily, "Ravenclaw!"
Anyway, Ravenclaw naturally has another little beauty. This is undoubtedly the happiest thing for the Kitty Hawks today. In a heated and restrained applause, Sarah handed back the hat on her head to Maca, and then went to the Ravenclaw table without hurries.
"'A talent is not a talent'?" Maca looked at her leaving back, and said casually, "What do you mean? Do you mean her alchemy?"
"Yes!" The Sorting Hat twisted again in his hand, "It's a rare outstanding...it's a pity... it's a pity...her talent won't be able to grow...oh..."
"So that's it," Maca said thoughtfully, "Because the alchemy is over, do you want to find the way from another direction?"
In a sense, Maca’s guess at this time is actually not wrong. It's just that, for some things, the so-called "truth" can't be drawn only by the slightest clue.
"Hmm..." He pressed his mind for a while, glanced at the names on the list, and then said loudly, "Next, Natalie Johnson!"
This year's freshmen are not too few, but the sorting ceremony is sometimes very fast. Especially for those students with bright personality, the sorting hat can always react as soon as it falls, and then yell at its strange tone to shout out a college name that matches the student.
Alexander waited nervously in the team. The classmates who were called to sit on the stools one by one, and then a torn hat decided the college that was destined to accompany them until they reached adulthood. If placed in the original world, this kind of ceremony would definitely make people laugh, but now it is impossible for anyone to laugh.
It's all because of that broken hat... it can talk!
After several wonderful experiences, Alexander thought he would no longer be surprised. But when he saw the hat speak, or even sing, he was still deeply shocked.
"Ensi, aren't you surprised at all? The hat can speak..." He stared at the classmate who was receiving the branch, and subconsciously raised his hand to touch the only boy he knew.
"What's the matter?" Ensi replied indifferently, but his gaze stayed on the ceiling of the auditorium all the time, looking at the illusory starry sky, "have you never seen it more wonderful Of...Ah, is this the magical world my mother used to live in?"
He looked up at the ceiling and whispered softly, but his thoughts had already flown to the ice cave in the ice and snow that day...Of course, there was also the huge stone temple in the deepest part of the cave.
At this moment, a voice awakened him in a trance.
"...the next one, Ens Tavon."
"Hey, it's you..." Alexander poked him again.
"I heard it!"
Ens, who recovered his senses, curled his lips, then quickly retracted his looking up gaze, and walked towards Maca.
"Hello!" Maca looked at him and said, "Sit down!"
For this boy who is also contacted by Maca, he is somewhat different from other children. Maca happened to be next door to his house when the little guy first went away with magic, so he almost saw him the first time.
But after that, when he wanted to talk to the father and son again after the holiday, he was somewhat unexpectedly rejected by Ens's irritable father at the door. At that time, the reason he got was very simple-the other party knew exactly where Hogwarts was, and they could prepare themselves for school and board the Hogwarts Express on the first day of school.
In this case, of course Maca has no reason to mix it up, right?
So it was the second time he saw this little boy named Ens Tavon until tonight. It is naturally impossible to say that Maca is not interested in the story of their family.
It's just that, no matter how curious he is, it's just a small matter. Maca didn't care too much, just greeted him first, and after he sat down, he prepared to put on the sorting hat for him.
But at the moment when the hat was about to fall on Little Enz's head, the main entrance of the auditorium was suddenly opened, and a voice rushed in without a word.
Maca's hand paused, and he looked at the other person suspiciously--that was Filch. Although he was a little rough on weekdays, he wouldn't be involved in important sorting ceremonies. Moth. It looks like something happened.
Not to mention Maca secretly, but saw Filch trot violently, all the way to the back of Professor McGonagall, and then he bent down and said something in her ear.
In the next moment, Professor McGonagall beckoned to Maca.
"The people from the Wizarding Union are here, please explain to them! The Sorting is an important ceremony of our Hogwarts. We have to ask them to wait a moment."
"Come here so late, obviously I'm here for dinner..." Maca shrugged and whispered, "I see... Professor Snape, I'll ask you for the branch call. I have to deal with it. !"
Since the end of last semester, he has been in contact with him over there. Obviously, it is not easy to change to someone else this time.
"Hmm."
Snape took the roster and sorting hat from him and nodded. After Maca left the auditorium, the front door slowly closed again, and Snape snapped the Sorting Hat on Ens's head.
"Does it start again? I see...well, it's difficult...really, it's a bit difficult," the hat began to hesitate again, "Slytherin? Slytherin? You must have enough He’s ambition, and he has good decisiveness...but, um...for courage, obviously there is also, and his head is pretty smart... By the way! Hey, little guy! You can tell, where do you want to go? "
Although he was in front of Alexander just now, he appeared to be indifferent to the Sorting Hat. But right now when it really fell on the top of his head, the kind of evaluation that pointed to the heart in every word made his scalp numb.
"You...you ask me?" Ensi felt that he didn't know how to answer, "Uh...don't know. I think...you just decide."
"Really? Hmm...then Slater...oh! No no no, wait a minute! I think we have another choice!" The sorting cap jumped up and turned around, screaming Said, "Hufflepuff!"
Ensi covered one eye by the sorting cap that he jumped up and fell back on top of his head, and hurriedly reached out and lifted the cap, but the doubt in his heart made him take it off immediately.
In fact, it was obvious--he didn't understand at all. Why did he always say the names of other colleges at first, but in the end a "Hufflepuff" appeared instead?
"Why... uh, Hufflepuff?" Ensi rolled his eyes and looked up at the top of his head, but only a large brim could be seen.
"Kaka! Because I think this is a good choice! Little guy~IndoMTL.com~you——"
The Sorting Hat laughed, as if he wanted to say something else, but Snape had already mentioned it and announced the next name.
This year, the number of students in Hufflepuff is still the most, at least for now. Although Ens didn't care about which college he went to, he was still quite depressed because of the number of points he was assigned.
Just when he walked to Hufflepuff's long table with a face full of incomprehension, another student following his name was quickly assigned to Slytherin. Not only that, but even the next name was pronounced by Snape.
"...Alexander Wolfe."
Ens heard the sound and looked back subconsciously. Alexander was running towards the high stool. And when Snape's hands fell together, the word "Gryffindor" rang straight out.
"Seriously, it's more comfortable without so much nonsense!"
Seeing Alexander looking this way, Ensi turned around decisively and scratched his scalp in dissatisfaction.
