"Ding! Detected that the host caused minor mental damage to the bad kid, Malfoy, rewarding the host with 5 merit points."
"Ding… …"
"Ding! Detected that the host caused massive mental damage to the evil little devil, Tom, rewarding the host with 200 merit points."
Li Weide listened to the series of system notifications in his ear, his heart unmoved.
There was no way around it; this system was too useless. Besides the things that were refreshed at the beginning, almost nothing good came out later.
Those magic potion ingredients and alchemy materials, Li Weide could directly buy with gold Galleons; there was no need to spend merit points at all.
Couldn't you at least refresh something like phoenix tears for me?
Li Weide was so annoyed by this system that he almost wanted to drink a mouthful of Felix Felicis and then wait for it to refresh.
Later, because he was busy studying with his senior every night, he didn't pay much attention to the system shop refreshing at midnight, only taking a look during the day.
… … Speaking of the system, before, when he bullied Tom, he didn't get many merit points at all. He even thought this kid had learned his lesson.
He didn't expect that today, he would give himself such a big wave… He really could endure it.
This was actually very reasonable; how could a guy like Tom always be well-behaved?
However, the Nightmare Charm was unexpectedly useful… Thanks, Senior!
… …
The Hogwarts Express had already started, and the scenery outside the window was rapidly receding… …
Tom sat opposite Li Weide with his head lowered.
Now, he was a little afraid to meet Li Weide's eyes, fearing that Li Weide would seek him out right now.
Although Li Weide said he believed his explanation, but… Tom couldn't believe Li Weide's words!
Tom had a premonition that Li Weide would definitely retaliate, just not knowing when… …
Thinking of this, Tom became uneasy again.
Suddenly, a few knocks came from the compartment door, breaking the silence that made Tom restless.
Li Weide shifted his gaze from the book and looked towards the door.
The compartment door was pulled open, and a very beautiful girl leaned against the compartment door, politely asking, "Can I come in and sit? There are no seats outside anymore."
Li Weide looked at this girl, feeling that she looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember for a moment.
"Of course, there are still seats here," Li Weide said, moving the books on the table to the side.
"Thank you. The other carriages are full!" The girl happily walked in, carrying a trunk.
"Tom, don't just sit there like an idiot… …"
Upon hearing this, Tom understood and stood up, took the trunk from the girl's hand, and put it on the luggage rack.
There was no way around it; he had just caused trouble, only hoping that his current well-behavedness would make Li Weide's revenge less violent… …
Alas, who could be more miserable than me… …
Tom sat back down sadly.
"Thank you… …" The girl seemed a little embarrassed as she said.
"Sit wherever you like," Li Weide said with a smile.
"Okay… …" The girl looked at the expressionless Tom and finally sat next to the smiling and gentle Li Weide.
Li Weide said with a smile, "I am Weide Li, you can call me Weide. He is Tom, Tom Riddle. Don't be fooled by his silence; he's actually a surprisingly good person. We are both first-year students who just enrolled this year."
Tom raised his head, forced a smile, looking like the corner of his mouth twitched… …
"You… Hello, I'm Annie Rosier, also a first-year student. You can also just call me Annie. Nice to meet you," Annie said with a smile.
"Rosier… …" Li Weide's eyes lit up; he finally remembered who Annie resembled.
The woman standing next to Grindelwald… Vinda Rosier.
Back in Godric's Hollow, that woman was with Grindelwald.
It was just that at the time, all of Li Weide's energy was focused on Grindelwald, while Vinda was busy saving people, so he didn't pay much attention to Vinda.
Therefore, now when he saw Annie, he only remembered who she resembled when he heard her last name.
"Hmm? What's wrong?" Annie seemed a little curious about Li Weide's reaction.
"Oh, it's nothing, just suddenly remembered that the Rosier family seems to be one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight," Li Weide explained.
"Yes, the Rosier family is recognized as one of the purest of the twenty-eight pure-blood families," Annie said with some pride. "By the way, are you pure-blood wizards?"
"Yes, very pure… …" Li Weide said decisively.
In fact, Li Weide wanted to go to Slytherin.
And Tom, as a descendant of Slytherin, would of course be sorted into Slytherin.
In this era, non-pure-blood wizards would have a lot of trouble after being sorted into Slytherin.
Being isolated and bullied were commonplace.
Although Li Weide wasn't afraid of bullying, he didn't want to make things so troublesome.
So, since no one else knew, when asked, he would directly say he was pure-blood.
This way, he could at least solve eighty percent of the trouble.
"I knew it!" Annie said excitedly.
In her opinion, people with temperament like Li Weide and Tom were definitely pure-blood wizards!
"Eh? You even have a snake as a pet?" Annie noticed Nagini, who was coiled in front of the book. "You will definitely be sorted into Slytherin."
Of course, Slytherins play with snakes, and now Li Weide too… …
"What about you? Which house do you want to be sorted into?" Li Weide casually asked.
"Of course, Slytherin! Our family is all Slytherins, without exception!" Annie said excitedly.
"Ah… Is that so… …"
Although Li Weide chatted with Annie casually, appearing very amiable,
In fact, the vigilance in his heart had reached its peak.
Vinda Rosier was Grindelwald's most trusted follower.
And not long after he and Tom were targeted by Grindelwald, a Rosier proactively approached them.
He would never believe that there was nothing fishy about this.
Li Weide felt that Annie was likely sent by them to investigate him and Tom.
However, he didn't know if this was Grindelwald's intention or that of Vinda Rosier.
Sure enough, not long after chatting, Annie's topic began to lead towards Li Weide and Tom's families.
However, Tom remained silent, and Li Weide was a shrewd person, always going around in circles with her, refusing to take the bait.
Li Weide felt that this was much more interesting than reading.
Later, even when Tom noticed that something was wrong with Annie, the announcement that the train was about to arrive at the station rang out on the Hogwarts Express.
Annie felt very frustrated.
Li Weide seemed to have talked a lot with her, but it also seemed that they hadn't talked about anything!
A full six hours! Annie was a little parched, but she still didn't get any useful information!
"Annie, you should change your clothes first."
Li Weide said, and together with Tom, he walked out of the compartment.
For a moment, only Annie was left in the entire compartment.
She silently pulled the curtain on the compartment door.
When she turned around, there was no longer any smile on her face.
"I don't believe it… …"
Annie frowned, muttering to herself in a low voice.
What she didn't realize was that on the table, Nagini was staring intently at her… …
… …
"I am Ogg, the gamekeeper and key keeper of Hogwarts! Please get off the train in an orderly manner! First-year students, follow me! Leave your luggage on the train, don't worry about it!"
A bald wizard was holding a lamp and shouting loudly from a high place.
The students got off the train one after another, and the station suddenly became crowded.
While Annie was squeezed to the other side by the crowd, Tom quietly said to Li Weide, "That woman is trouble."
“I know,” Leif nodded.
“You know?” Tom looked at Leif in surprise.
“Grindelwald’s most trusted person… is called Vita Rosier.”
Tom was even more surprised, “So, this is… sent by that man?”
Leif shrugged, “Not sure, probably.”
“You… since you knew she was suspicious, why did you let her stay in our compartment just now?” Tom asked, puzzled.
Leif grinned, “In many cases, this kind of person can be surprisingly useful… We don’t need to expose her.”
Tom wanted to say something, but Annie had already squeezed through the crowd again and came to their side. Tom had no choice but to shut his mouth and return to his taciturn demeanor.
The first-year students followed Hagrid for a long distance and arrived at the edge of the Black Lake.
Leif looked at the silhouette of Hogwarts Castle in the distance and couldn’t help but feel a little emotional.
“Attention, four people per boat.” Hagrid said, and began to direct the first-year students to board the boats.
Leif and Tom took the lead and stepped into a small boat, followed closely by Annie.
Soon, another boy stepped into their boat, occupying the last spot.
The boy raised his head with a smile, intending to greet the people in the boat.
However, after seeing Leif, his expression instantly froze.
No mistakes, first release, first content, first look!
At this time, Leif and Tom also recognized him as the younger brother of the Black family siblings.
The boat had already begun to move slowly, and even if the boy wanted to change boats, it was already too late. He had no choice but to awkwardly sit back down.
“Hey, Black family, what’s your name?” Leif suddenly asked.
“Me?” The boy pointed to his nose in surprise.
“Of course, are there any other Blacks on this boat?”
“Oh, oh… I… I’m Alphard Black…”
“Hello, Alphard, nice to meet you.” Leif warmly shook Alphard’s hand.
This familiar manner made Alphard less nervous.
“Hello… I remember your name is Leif Li, right?”
“Just call me Leif,” Leif said.
“I’m Tom, Tom Marvolo Riddle.” Tom said with a cool expression.
To be honest, after experiencing so much today, Tom had already let go of his beautiful filter for pure-blood families.
“I’m Annie Rosier.” Annie also introduced herself.
“Um, um… hello everyone.” Alphard seemed a little flustered.
Before long, the boat successfully docked.
Hagrid led the first-year students off the boat, across the long stone steps, and to the front of the castle gate.
At this time, several first-year students in the group, after seeing Leif, immediately hid to the side in horror.
Leif glanced at them and immediately laughed, “Tom, aren’t those your good friends?”
“No, no, don’t talk nonsense…” Tom quickly denied three times in a row.
… …
Ten minutes later.
The first-year students lined up and entered the noisy Great Hall, then stood in front of a tattered hat placed on a short stool.
Leif glanced at the professors on the teachers’ seats and immediately saw several familiar faces.
Dumbledore was sitting next to a white-bearded old man, smiling at Leif.
Leif guessed that the white-bearded old man was the current headmaster of Hogwarts, Armando Dippet.
And on the other side of Dumbledore was Professor Hicks.
As for the other professors, besides the young Professor McGonagall and the obese Professor Slughorn, Leif didn’t recognize any of them.
However, this was also the first time Leif had seen the young version of Professor McGonagall.
Just as Leif was thinking wildly, the Sorting Hat suddenly opened its mouth and sang a somewhat strange song, introducing the characteristics of the four houses.
When the song ended, Dumbledore stood up, took a roll of parchment, and came to the short stool.
In this era, Dumbledore was still doing this job.
“First-year students whose names I call, sit here and put on the Sorting Hat…”
“Henry Avery!”
As the first boy walked up nervously, he was sorted into Slytherin.
The sorting ceremony officially began.
As the list shortened, Leif felt Alphard beside him become more and more nervous.
Tom was calm, but Leif also noticed his clenched fists.
After all, he was still just an eleven-year-old kid…
“Leif Li!”
Dumbledore’s voice pulled Leif back from his thoughts.
“So fast…” Leif was also a little surprised that it was his turn so quickly.
He quickly stepped forward and sat on the short stool.
“Don’t be nervous, Leif. Relax.” Dumbledore smiled and placed the Sorting Hat on Leif’s head.
The hat was still too big for Leif.
As soon as it was placed on his head, it covered his eyes.
Then, Leif felt a faint voice speaking in his mind.
“Hmm… that’s strange. You don’t seem to have a particular place you want to go? How is that possible?”
Hearing this, Leif felt that his Occlumency must be too strong.
So, he quickly activated Occlumency and forged some images in his mind.
Sure enough, the voice sounded again.
“Ah! I see… so that’s how it is… Brave, shrewd, and ambitious… Ah, and a heart that sincerely treats friends!”
Dumbledore, who had been waiting beside him, couldn’t help but smile when he heard this.
Leif was indeed a good boy…
“Oh dear, this is difficult. It seems that all four houses are very suitable for you! So… where do you want to go?”
Faced with the memories and thoughts that Leif had deliberately created, the Sorting Hat was also a little troubled.
“Then go to Slytherin,” Leif silently recited in his heart.
Only in Slytherin could he earn merit points, even though this system was a bit useless…
“Ah, I see, in that case, as you wish… SLYTHERIN!”
When Dumbledore heard that Leif seemed to voluntarily be sorted into Slytherin, he couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.
He hadn’t expected Leif to choose Slytherin.
However, when he saw Tom in the line behind Leif, Dumbledore suddenly understood, it was for Tom.
Dumbledore didn’t even need the Sorting Hat. After learning about Tom’s actions in the orphanage, he knew that he was definitely a Slytherin.
That’s right, Leif valued friendship so much, of course he wanted to be in the same house as his good friend… That made sense.
Leif smiled, returned the Sorting Hat to Dumbledore, and walked towards the applauding Slytherin table.
But no one noticed that a faint white light flashed across his fingers that had just held the Sorting Hat…
After a while.
“Tom Riddle!”
Tom walked up nervously and put the Sorting Hat on his head.
For students with such obvious personalities as Tom, the Sorting Hat had nothing to hesitate about.
However, when loudly announcing the result, the word Slytherin that came to his lips turned into…
“AZKABAN!”
Tom: ! ! !
