Ancient wizards return to Hogwarts

"Who knows? They are so Gryffindor." Hermione didn't have a deep impression of Harry and Ron. She only knew that the two of them were very good at breaking school rules.

The four of them separated at the entrance of the auditorium and went to sit down at the long table in their academy.

After sitting down at the Slytherin House table, Rice glanced towards the Gryffindor House, and indeed did not find the shadows of Harry and Ron in the crowd.

What were they doing?

There happened to be nothing at hand, so Les simply put his hand on his chin and thought about what might happen to Harry and Ron. Then he saw a car passing by the window of the castle.

Les:…

He probably understood what Ron and Harry had done. Hermione summed up the two of them very well: they were too Gryffindor.

The sorting ceremony was not postponed due to the absence of the two young wizards. Professor McGonagall led a group of young wizards in as usual. Les saw Astoria standing at the front of the line, behind her a girl with shaggy waist-length dirty blond hair.

The blonde girl caught Les' attention because she was wearing some unusual jewelry and had her wand stuck behind her ear. Her gray eyes seemed trance-like, and there was an obvious madness about her whole person.

He had an intuition that this girl would be sorted into Ravenclaw, because - although saying this would definitely make Ravenclaw furious - he felt that those crazy little wizards fit the profile of Ravenclaw very well. College temperament.

Under the auspices of Professor McGonagall, the sorting ceremony began.

Since her last name was "G" and her first name was "A", Astoria was quickly called up.

When she saw the sorting hat, she was really relieved - before that, she had said everything about the school's sorting method. The most exaggerated version is that everyone must work together to defeat a giant monster, and then be assigned to a college based on their performance in the battle.

With strange thoughts flashing in her mind, Astoria sat on the small square stool.

She could feel the gaze of nearly a thousand eyes, which made her nervous: in public, once the results of the sorting were announced, there would probably be no room for maneuver.

I don’t want to go to Gryffindor or Hufflepuff!

As the hat was placed on her head, she remembered what Les had said to her.

[Recite my name silently, and your wishes will definitely come true]

Although she didn't really believe it, she still silently read Les's name several times in her heart.

At the same time, a voice also sounded in her ears: "Funny little girl, your soul... wait, you just mentioned Les? Do you know Les - I mean Les Lint?"

"Yes." Astoria was also quite surprised. She didn't expect that the Sorting Hat actually responded to Rice's name!

The Sorting Hat said "Oh" and then fell silent.

After hearing the name Les, the Sorting Hat immediately understood that Lord Slytherin had his own plans for the girl in front of him. It tried to follow the contract and put the trace on the little wizard of the Greengrass family in front of it. As a result, as soon as the contract magic was activated, the Sorting Hat felt a slight resistance, as if there was a force resisting its release. Traces of silk.

Perhaps increasing the output can forcibly add traces, but the Sorting Hat dare not do this because it clearly senses that this is a curse imposed by Lord Slytherin to prevent it from placing traces on this girl. Silk.

This time it didn't dare to act rashly.

At this time, Astoria was confused. She didn't understand why the Sorting Hat suddenly stopped talking.

Fortunately, the Sorting Hat's silence did not last long. After a few seconds, it opened its mouth again and asked: "Did Les say anything?"

Astoria:? ? ?

what's the situation? Why does it feel like the Sorting Hat attaches great importance to Rice's ideas?

Astoria's feeling was correct, and the Sorting Hat now feared that it had misjudged Rice's thoughts. According to its judgment, it planned to assign Astoria to Slytherin, but now that it learned that Master Slytherin was paying close attention to this girl, it did not dare to act rashly, lest one accidentally destroy it. The Lord's plan.

What the Sorting Hat didn't know was that Rice didn't have any plans, he just wanted Astoria to go to the college he wanted to go to.

"He said I can definitely go to the college I want to go to." Astoria didn't know exactly what happened, but she still told the truth what Rice said.

"Oh, then which college do you want to go to?"

"It must be Slytherin!"

Sorting Hat:…

After a moment, it yelled with all its strength: "Slytherin!"

The sorting ceremony continued, and no one knew the twists and turns the Sorting Hat had gone through.

Today's opening banquet was slightly different from previous ones. There was always a lack of people at the teachers' table. Snape was not there when the sorting ceremony began, and Professor McGonagall also disappeared after presiding over the sorting ceremony. Later, Dumbledore announced the start of the banquet and left the auditorium, which caused a lot of discussion among the students.

This made Lockhart quite unhappy. He had carefully written a speech for today's opening dinner and paired it with a set of corresponding body postures. In the end, Dumbledore didn't show it to him at all. Time, after he introduced his name, he actually announced that dinner was ready!

That set of actions and that manuscript are all invalid!

But just like no one knew about the Sorting Hat's mental activities, no one noticed Professor Lockhart's dissatisfaction.

It was not until the end of the banquet that a rather explosive news slowly spread: Harry and Ron did not board the Hogwarts Express, but drove over in a flying car.

This sparked a lively discussion, with the Gryffindor wizards thinking this was too cool, and the Slytherin students feeling that such a serious breach of the law of secrecy should be punished. The Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students didn't have any special opinions on this. They were either discussing what kind of spell was cast on the flying car, or they were regretting that Harry and Ron missed such a sumptuous feast.

Lockhart beat his chest and lamented that he had missed an opportunity to make headlines.

But this had nothing to do with Les. He returned to the dormitory early, lay on the bed and fell asleep.

…

Generally speaking, few little wizards choose to go to the library to study on the first day of school - they often haven't gotten over the laziness of the holidays.

But there was one exception. On the first day of school, Miss Hermione Granger opened the door to the library.
