HP calls me Queen

Chapter 6 The Sorting Hat

Hermione didn't have much contact with Harry and Ron. Although it was obvious that she wanted to talk to Harry more, she still wanted to help Neville find Toad.Harry wanted to help too, but Delphine reminded them that school was coming and they needed to change into their house robes in advance.

After searching around without finding anything, she returned to the box, and Delphine quietly released Toad Raffle's invisibility magic, and then pretended to find it under the chair.Neville was instantly overjoyed.Then the three of them also changed into their college robes, Hogwarts is coming soon! 
First-year freshmen need to take a boat across the lake in front of the castle, saying it is to commemorate the original four founders.

Delphine's face was ugly, and she found herself dizzy!Not seasick but watersick!In his previous life, in the magical world of high demons, he was the favored patron of the ice system, and he was innately close to water and ice.But in this life, she was afraid of water!Especially in the pitch-black lake, from time to time, a huge shadow can be faintly seen passing under the boat.

Mahler Gobi!This is Delphine's idea!I can only keep patting the cat to distract myself.Fortunately, Nicole is very obedient and cute enough to keep Delphine from focusing on the water.

On the same boat as Delphine were Neville and Hermione.Neville looked enviously at Nicole in Delphine's arms. Compared to her fat toad Raffle, Delphine's Nicole was not so cute!Hermione, on the other hand, was very excited, talking endlessly about some anecdotes she had read from books such as biographies and a piece of Hogwarts school history.

Delphine didn't go looking for Harry deliberately, but Hagrid's figure was so conspicuous that he could be spotted without looking for it.

There were no monster attacks and no boat capsizing.A group of freshmen arrived at the castle without any surprise or danger.According to the description in the original book, little Draco should have made a failed declaration of love to Harry.But obviously there is no chance now, the two had already met in Diagon Alley before, and the contact was not very friendly.

Several ghosts drifted past leisurely, and the rumored worst ghost, Peeves, hid in the armor and sang obscene songs, but was quickly driven away by Professor McGonagall who came to welcome the new students.Professor McGonagall is a tall, thin woman.Wearing a pair of glasses, her black hair was combed meticulously and tied into a dignified hairstyle.The expression is quite serious.

Professor McGonagall's speech was very simple and clear. In addition to the concise welcome speech, he introduced the four branches and the upcoming sorting ceremony.As head of Gryffindor, she showed no inclinations, which fit her role as vice head.

Harry didn't know when he came to Delphine, and asked in a low voice: "Do you know which branch you will be sorted into? I think I might be Hufflepuff. Ron said that children who are not wanted by other houses will be sorted." Get there!" Although he has attracted a lot of attention along the way, Harry is still not confident enough in his bones that he is a magician.

"I also think that I will enter Hufflepuff!" Neville also got involved, and he was even less confident than Harry: "My grandma also said that useless people enter Hufflepuff!"

"Please!" Delphine stroked her forehead: "You guys are definitely prejudiced. Hufflepuff houses just don't like high-profile people. They are amazing! In fact, the achievements of Hufflepuff's children are often lower than those of the original Their teachers were stunned!"

Delphine originally wanted to rectify Hufflepuff's name, but she didn't expect this move to make Neville and Harry even more frustrated.

"So, Hufflepuff is more difficult to get into, isn't it!" Neville said depressingly.

"Don't worry too much!" Delphine rolled her eyes, thought for a while and said, "So, which branch do you want to go to?"

"Gryffindor!" Harry and Neville said almost in unison.

"If you really want to, then you will go!" Daphne said, thinking in her heart, where should she go?In fact, Hufflepuff is very good, they are the real invisible owners of Hogwarts.Ravenclaw is also very good. It is said that Ravenclaw's library is the best in the British wizarding world.And Ravenclaw and Cho Chang!Forget about Gryffindor, getting too close to a pig's foot is not a good thing, and a group of brainless lion cubs are very annoying!So long Ravenclaw well!
Delphine thought so, according to the original book, the Sorting Hat can be bargained, Harry and Hermione seem to have done similar things.Delphine felt that she could let the Sorting Hat sort herself into Ravenclaw, and she felt that she still loved knowledge.

Delphine curled her lips as the freshmen walked into the dining hall while thinking wildly.There are seven grades in a school, and the four branches add up to only 600 students. Even in the Celestial Dynasty, there are not as many students as a grade.This is on the premise that there are only three magic schools in Europe, which shows how far magicians have withered.No wonder ordinary people can't discover the existence of magicians, there are so few people!

Hermione was chatting about the ceiling with the freshmen next to her again. Where the dining room should be the ceiling was a velvety dark night sky, even twinkling with stars!Countless candles float in the air.

Professor McGonagall gently placed a four-corner stool in front of the first-year students, and then placed a top-pointed wizard hat.That is naturally the famous sorting hat.I have to say that the thing is too broken, with patches and patches, and it is so dirty that it is unsightly.Daphne's scalp tingles at the thought of wearing this thing on her head for a while.

Just as Daphne struggled, the Sorting Hat began to sing.Delphine couldn't remember what was sung in the original book.In short, it is a matter of branching.After the end, there was thunderous applause, and the hat actually bowed to all around.

"Looks like we'll just have to wear this hat," Ron whispered to Harry, "I'm going to kill Fred, he sounds like he's going to fight a troll!"

It would be easy if it was dueling with the trolls!Delphine thought so.

Afterwards, Professor McGonagall took out the list and began to ask the students whose names were read to put on their hats.The order is alphabetical by last name.Both Harry and Weasley were farther back, at least in front of Delphine.

The sorting ceremony began, and the first few students were mostly Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws.Delphine took a closer look, and was embarrassed to find that Hufflepuff's house was really that kind of uncharacteristic student.The first Gryffindor student was Lavender Brown, a rather beautiful girl.Delphine had some impressions of this name, and vaguely remembered that it was Ron's first love girlfriend later, and she was after Ron!

Lavender's arrival elicited a round of cheers from Gryffindor, especially from Ron's twin brother.I don't know whether they are purely welcoming new students or cute and beautiful girls.

While Delphine was thinking wildly, Professor McGonagall called Hermione's name.

"Hermione Granger!"

Hermione was obviously a little nervous, trotting all the way to the stool, and hastily put the hat on her head.

"Gryffindor!" The Sorting Hat seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then shouted out loudly.Hermione happily joined the Gryffindor camp, and looked at Delphine proudly, with a provocative look in her eyes.

Delphine pouted, but didn't take it to heart.A moment later, Professor McGonagall called her name.

Delphine walked up slowly, thinking about how to bargain with the Sorting Hat while walking, but before the hat was fully settled, she yelled loudly: "Slytherin!"

"Nimal Gobi!" Daphne watched Professor McGonagall take off the sorting hat with a dull expression. I bought a hiking bag last year. I can get it if I agree, ask for it if I agree, ask for it if I agree. Bargaining, Nima's old lady is Slytherin before she speaks!My old lady doesn't want to be a villain!Being a villain is easy to die young!A cheating sorting hat!
However, no matter how many alpacas gallop past in Delphine's heart, and no matter how upset Delphine is, the result of the sorting cannot be changed.Delphine had no choice but to meet Slytherin's cheers and came to Slytherin's long table.

Well, in fact, seeing real people, the members of Slytherin are not as gloomy and vicious as in the books and movies.On the contrary, each of them greeted themselves enthusiastically.

Immediately after Delphine was Neville.Neville didn't seem to have reacted to the shock that Delphine was assigned to Slytherin. Professor McGonagall called his name three times before reacting under Harry's reminder, and ran up in a hurry. I accidentally fell down.

This time the Sorting Hat had the longest thought and hesitation of the day, and when it finally called out Gryffindor, Delphine instinctively let out a sigh of relief when she saw Neville.But he glanced in Daphne's direction again, and seemed to have some other emotions.However, at this distance, even if Delphine's Legilimency is quite proficient, it is difficult to perceive his emotions.Besides... Delphine glanced at Albus Dumbledore in the center of the podium.That is a super master of Legilimency!Delphine didn't want to do anything inappropriate in front of him!

Draco after Neville, who was in a similar situation to Delphine, shouted Slytherin almost as soon as the hat touched his head.His two little followers, Gore and Crabbe, were a step ahead of him and were applauding enthusiastically.In fact, many people applauded, more than Daphne.After all, Draco, whose parents are both influential in the wizarding world, is more valued than Delphine, who has no father or mother and almost no one cares about her.Most of the people in the Slytherin branch are children from big families, so they naturally awakened to this aspect earlier.

There were only six to seventy students in this class, and it was already halfway through. During the period, except for sister Hua Patil, who had a slightly bigger response, the rest basically received little response.After all, most people have heard that there is an extremely important person coming today.

"Harry Potter! (Harry Potter)"

Finally, the name was pronounced from Professor McGonagall, and the audience fell silent.Then there was a buzzing whisper: "Did you hear that, Potter, it's really Potter!"

"Is she calling Potter, is that Potter?"

"That's the one, that Harry Potter?"

Harry's house was longer than the others, but only a little bit, and much shorter than Neville's.But in the end there was no surprise, the Sorting Hat called Gryffindor's name.

Harry, who took off the sorting hat, didn't seem particularly excited.This is probably the same as this time, because of the influence of Delphine and the fact that Draco didn't die many times, he didn't particularly dislike Slytherin.Of course, due to the existence of Big Mouth Ron, it is estimated that he still has some ideas about Slytherin.

Ron was the No.2 student from the bottom, and the Sorting Hat only hesitated for a moment before sorting him into Gryffindor.After the last Blaise Zabini was assigned to Slytherin, Professor McGonagall put away the parchment on which his name was recorded, picked up the sorting hat and left.
