Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 381: Abnormal admission process

"...If there is any new notice from the Greek Ministry of Magic for this batch of enrolled students, the Ministry will send a letter of notice to Hogwarts."

"Okay."

In the lobby of the atrium of the Ministry of Magic, Umbridge was handing over the person in charge assigned by the Ministry of Magic this time, while Maca was standing aside, behind him was a group of little wizards of all ages and sizes.

Most of these little wizards were silent, their eyes fluttering around the luxurious and wide atrium foyer. Whether it was the huge statue in the middle of the gate or the gleaming magic fountain, they all passed by one by one.

It can be seen that there is a trace of envy and expectation mixed in the vigilance they showed.

Although the Minoan School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Greece has been rebuilt, the lack of funds has made the school neglected to repair and manage. Obviously, it is impossible to compare with the increasingly complete British Ministry of Magic.

But even so, it was their alma mater, the place where they have been living.

Now that the school is destroyed, the former classmates are also dead, separated, and it’s uncomfortable to decide. Compared to the mind that has experienced terrible disasters and is on alert, that expectation for the future seems a little trivial.

While paying attention to the situation on Umbridge, Maca is also quietly observing the little wizards who are about to be incorporated into Hogwarts.

At least until now, no matter whether it’s the Umbridge side of the business, or the restless students side, there seems to be nothing unusual, and nothing is beyond reasonable scope.

It's as if this incident is simply the aftermath of a dispute in other magic circles, nothing more.

"...excuse me."

Maca was thinking about the specific circumstances of the Minoan disaster, when suddenly one of the oldest boys from the group of students came to him.

"What's the matter?" Maca faced the student who might be older than him.

"Excuse me...Are you a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?" The boy asked cautiously, speaking in unskilled but still understandable English.

Maca looked up at the group of students, and found that the other twenty or so students were watching the situation here a little nervously. It seemed that the boy in front of him seemed to be communicating on their behalf.

"It used to be, but now I am the professor of ancient magic at Hogwarts." Maca retracted his gaze, looked at him and said, "My name is Maca McLean, after you enroll in Hogwarts, If you are interested in ancient magic literature, you are welcome to take my course."

"Professor?" The boy seemed to be taken aback. He looked at Maca secretly with some hesitation, as if he was guessing whether Maca was a pure-blooded human.

"Don't worry about it," Maca smiled, "I am really young, but at Hogwarts, as long as there is enough ability, there will be no absolute bondage. If you can work hard To explore the mysteries of magic, you will also have the possibility of breaking the worldly conventions."

"Oh!" The boy froze for a moment, then nodded with surprise and admiration, "Then you must be very powerful—our school professor mentioned it many times, and he said Hogwarts is a A very good top magic school!"

When referring to the past professor, the boy's eyes flashed dim for a moment. It can be seen that the professor must have cared for him a lot, but now he has mostly been killed.

"Yes, Hogwarts is indeed excellent," Maca nodded. "But the best thing is not the school, but the teachers and students in the school. It is the'love' between people— —This is what the previous principal, Albus Dumbledore told me."

"Dumbledore! Oh—I know him, um...everyone knows him!" The other side nodded and said, "The greatest white wizard in the world, he saved the entire European magic world!"

When Grindelwald's power spread across the European continent, although the British magical world was not directly attacked, the Greek magical world was once one of the hardest hit areas. Speaking of Dumbledore, perhaps their ancestors, the wizarding family who had personally experienced the troubles of the year, are the ones most grateful for.

"Yes, that's right."

Maca is actually a little embarrassed in her heart, because Dumbledore is already "off the road" now. If the boy knew that Dumbledore had just passed away, he didn't know how he would feel.

These students will soon be enrolled in Hogwarts, and they will know about this sooner or later. Maca was considering whether or not to tell the matter first, but unexpectedly this time he was relieved by Umbridge.

"Professor McLean, come and sign the document, and we can go."

After completing the negotiations with the official in charge of the Ministry of Magic, Umbridge turned back solemnly and asked Maca to go over and hand over the final signature.

"Sorry, we can talk later."

After Maca said something to the boy, he walked to Umbridge, picked up the file and looked at it. After finding that there was no problem, he signed his name.

"Then, the asylum students from Minos will be handed over to you two-you can take these students from the fireplace over there, the Floo network emergency line in the Hogwarts foyer has already been provided for you It's activated."

"Okay, trouble." Maca nodded to the person in charge, then turned around and waved to the students, "Keep up...there are more people here, be careful not to fall behind, we have to start moving Up!"

At the moment, the staff of the Ministry of Magic are still at work. Although the flow of people is not as high as when commuting, it is actually quite a lot. Umbridge and Maca one after another, watching these little wizards walk towards the entrance passage on the other side of the atrium.

Maca, who was walking behind, was still observing these students carefully. He looked at each one carefully, but until they lined up through the fireplace, there was still nothing worth paying attention to.

Finally, it was Maca's turn. He grabbed a handful of Floo fans, grinned to himself, and then disappeared into the fireplace accompanied by an exuberant emerald flame.

"Hey! What is going on?"

In the corner of the Hogwarts foyer, two figures rushed out at the same time from the large fireplace which was the emergency connection point of the few Floo networks in the school, followed by a muffled complaint.

Maca looked back and couldn't help rolling her eyes.

"Well, this kind of thing finally happened—" He muttered a low voice, and then hurriedly said with a smile, "Oh, is there something wrong with the fireplace at the Ministry of Magic? Quickly, take advantage of the emergency connection here. It hasn't been closed yet, let's go back again!"

Probably because he didn't use Floo Net to move for a long time. Although he thought that his demon flame reaction when using Floo powder was different from that of ordinary people, he still forgot that there were people lined up behind him!

Because the black-robed wizard behind him was too close to the fireplace, the magic flame rushed out and brought the opponent to Hogwarts.

"Ah...emergency connection point? Where is this?"

The black robe wizard looked around and seemed to finally understand the situation. He immediately grabbed a handful of Floo powder, complaining and went back into the fireplace again.

When Maca turned around, he found that Umbridge was staring at him with his mouth closed, but did not ask any questions about the commotion that had just occurred.

When she saw Maca looking towards her, she even turned her head away from Maca's sight.

It's the students from Minos who are looking back and forth between Maca and the fireplace with some curiosity, seeming to guess what happened just now.

"Okay, then... come with me!" Maca didn't give any explanation, just greeted everyone, "Go this way, you can rest in the small hall first, and by the way The ghosts of Hogwarts chat-this can be regarded as one of the compulsory courses that all students enrolling in Hogwarts must go through!"

As he talked, he took the lead to the corridor in the hall. Behind him, the enrolled students of Minos glanced at each other a few times, and then followed with hula la la.

In the hall, Umbridge, who was left aside by Maca, watched their backs, still with a greasy smirk on his face~IndoMTL.com~ I don't know what I was thinking.

……

"...Twenty-seven enrolled students, please enter the auditorium!"

Maca standing at the door of the side corridor, after hearing the faint call from the auditorium, immediately reached out and pushed open the door in front of him. Immediately afterwards, in the sight of the different eyes in the auditorium, he stepped forward and walked in generously.

Behind him, twenty-seven students from the Minos Institute of Magic and Magic followed his footsteps closely, and silently followed him to the faculty desk table.

"Facing all the students, stand in a row."

Maca directed these little wizards who are about to become new students, and personally reproduced the Hogwarts welcome process that he had been watching.

Although these "freshmen" are all different in age and height, and the number is only a mere 27, this is the first time that he has performed this freshmen entrance ceremony with his own hands.

When he arranged the students to line up, Filch had already placed the four-legged stool in front of the students.

In the auditorium, the little wizards at the four long tables were all looking at the appearance of these "new students", and the subtle buzzing sound quietly echoed in the auditorium.

"The Sorting Hat is here!"

Professor McGonagall, standing in the middle of the faculty seat, waved his magic wand, and not long after, the shabby pointed wizard hat that had just been "shown in a shower" a while ago flew in through the side door that had not yet been closed, and fell into her hand.

The Maca Sorting Hat did not put it on the four-legged stool, but started the sorting process directly under the sign of Professor McGonagall.

"I went to the queue by name, sat on the stool, put on my hat and waited for the sorting house--" Maca took out the parchment roll, unfolded it and read it according to the name above, "Helen Schon!" Download the free reader!!
