Chapter 15： Azkaban!

Under the stunned gazes of the freshmen, twenty or so pearl-white, translucent ghosts emerged from the walls and slid across the room. They didn't pay much attention to the first-year freshmen: there were freshmen year after year, and they didn't know they had seen it before. Hundreds of times. However, a chubby monk-like ghost greeted everyone.

"Hope you can get a Hufflepuff!" said the fat friar, "I used to go to that college."

Someone asked him about the process of the sorting ceremony, but he floated away as if he hadn't heard.

Professor McGonagall also returned. The moment she entered, Harry even had the illusion that she was about to take him to face destruction. Professor McGonagall arranged the freshmen in a single line and led them into the auditorium.

The auditorium at Hogwarts is also a dining room. It is extremely luxuriously furnished. The students are all sitting around four long tables. There are thousands of candles floating above the tables, and the tableware and wine glasses on the table are shining with gold. There is also a long table on the table at the top of the dining room, which is the teacher's seat. The freshmen were brought to the table by Professor McGonagall and told them to line up facing the entire school, with the other faculty members behind them.

Professor McGonagall placed a four-legged stool in front of the first-year students, with a tattered pointed wizard hat on the stool. The hat was patched and looked dirty.

After being placed on the stool, the hat twisted, a slit like a mouth was split at the brim, and then the hat began to sing. No one knows what it sings, it's not the Hogwarts school song. After singing the song, Professor McGonagall took a few steps forward with a roll of parchment in hand. The students whose names are called by her will put on their hats and sit on the stools to accept the sorting of the hats.

Hearing that the sorting method is so simple, the few students who were alarmist in the hut just now blushed, but no one cared about them at this time.

"Hannah Abbott!" Professor McGonagall called out the name of the first freshman.

Hearing this name, Tom was inexplicably relieved, and he watched a little girl with two blond braids, walk out of the queue, put on her hat, and after a while the hat shouted - "Hufflepuff!"

The people at the Hufflepuff table applauded her, and even the Fat Friar Ghost waved happily to her.

Next, Professor McGonagall called the little wizards up one by one: Susan Burns, Justin Felicity, Ernie McMillan and others entered Hufflepuff, Terry Boot , Mandy Blohe went to Ravenclaw, Millisenberg was the first freshman to enter Slytherin, and Lavender Brown became the first freshman to Gryffindor...

It was Hermione's turn. She ran to the stool and hurriedly put her hat on her head.

Hat hesitated for a while, but still shouted: "Ravenclaw!"

Hermione stood up from the small stool in relief, smiled at Tom, and walked to the Ravenclaw table to receive the welcome from the seniors.

Tom was the last of the divisions, not because he was special, but because his surname was Y, so he was at the bottom of the line. When Bryce Shabini was sorted into Slytherin, he was called by Professor McGonagall. Go ahead.

He buckled the hat on his head, the hat was a bit big, and it slid down to block his sight.

A small voice appeared in his ear, "Well, you are really a good seed of Slytherin..."

"I will never go to Slytherin," Tom thought to himself.

"Oh? But you are really suitable there. Slytherin can help you to achieve greatness, there is no doubt about it..."

"I don't think Tom from the orphanage is very suitable for this college..." Tom retorted in his heart.

"My duty is to assign the little wizard to the academy that suits him, so—"

"I swear, if I'm assigned to Slytherin today, my magic will tear you to shreds," Tom tore off the mask of kindness and threatened viciously in his heart, "Use your brain! I'm born like this What will happen to the wizard who goes to Slytherin? If you don't make me feel better, I will make it worse for you!"

The Sorting Hat fell silent.

"Azkaban." It muttered in the softest voice, and Professor McGonagall next to him felt as if there was a problem with his hearing.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing..." The Sorting Hat twisted and finally gave up the idea of ​​shouting "Slytherin" or "Azkaban".

"Since you're not happy with Slytherin, that's fine, then do what you want - Ravenclaw!"

Along with these words, there was a burst of applause from the Ravenclaw table, and students from other colleges also applauded, but more because the sorting ceremony was finally over, and it was time for dinner.

In addition to applause, Tom's system has also changed.

The first is the character column. Tom Yodell's name has become [Tom Yodell (Wind)]. Because he joined Ravenclaw, he has become a character of the wind attribute. UU Reading

Then the main quest was also swiped. He took on a quest called [The Stranger Who Catches the Wind], and he decided to go back to the dormitory at night to do research.

"If I'm assigned to Gryffindor, will the main quest be Fire Passer?" he thought to himself.

When the dust settled, Tom breathed a sigh of relief. He took off his hat and ran quickly to the Ravenclaw table. There was a vacant seat next to Hermione, and when he got to the vacant seat, Professor McGonagall also rolled up the parchment, picked up the sorting hat, and left.

At this time, Professor Dumbledore also stood up. Like all the principals, he must stand up and speak at the last moment, but fortunately, he really only spoke a little.

"Welcome everyone! Welcome to Hogwarts for the start of the new school year! Before the banquet, I want to say a few words. That's it: Idiot! Cry nose! Scum! Screw! Thank you!" , he sat down again. "Looks a little crazy, doesn't it?" A Ravenclaw senior sitting across from Tom smiled.

Since the magic world itself is a small circle, coupled with the special atmosphere of Hogwarts, the seniors here are very friendly and enthusiastic to the freshmen of this school, even Slytherin Academy is no exception.

"Robert Hilliard." He introduced himself.

"Tom Yoder."

"Actually, that sentence has a unique meaning," Robert patiently explained to the new students. "This sentence is actually describing the four colleges: Ravenclaw always thinks everyone else is stupid, Griffin Most people think everyone is cowards, Slytherin thinks those colleges with non-pure blood wizards are scum, and the Hufflepuffs are screwed."

The freshmen showed their original expressions.
