Parents of Hogwarts

The sorting ceremony of new students always attracts attention, and in this case, the one who receives the most attention, apart from the first little wizard, is the last one.

The first one means the official start of the sorting ceremony, which is exciting for any college.

And the last little wizard means it’s over quickly, we’re all going to starve to death.

So Karan didn't hesitate at all. He walked forward quickly and thoughtfully, attracting many kind looks.

But not all students think this way. Compared to being hungry, which college Karan will be assigned to is obviously more important.

Lucius squinted his eyes and realized that Karan was the freshman in the box he first checked. He looked at Snape beside him and asked him, "You are friends."

Snape nodded silently.

Lucius thought thoughtfully and said, "Speaking of which, among the people in your box before, apart from you, three of them have been sorted into Gryffindor."

Although he only had a brief glance at it, Lucius still remembered the appearance of those new students.

Snape sighed softly: "That's right."

Lucius saw his disappointment, so he comforted him and said: "Be happy, Snape, this is Slytherin. Sooner or later, they will know what they missed."

Snape nodded silently and said nothing.

In fact, except when facing Karan and Lily, he was always silent in front of unfamiliar people and rarely spoke.

Of course, there is an exception to ridiculing those who are annoying.

Lily is facing this situation now.

Sirius lazily leaned on his seat and asked Lily: "He should be the leader of you guys, right?"

"We are friends." Lily gave him a disgusted look, obviously not liking this title: "I advise you to be more careful when speaking, Karan is not the only one who can use magic."

Sirius was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Lily to be so strong even when she was alone. James on the side laughed mercilessly, and Sirius spread his hands helplessly.

"McDonald, let's change positions."

Mary McDonald, who was secretly glancing at Sirius, was stunned, and then she was pushed by Lily to the seat next to Sirius, while Lily sat directly on the other side of her.

She finally glared angrily at James who was making noises, and then looked nervously at Karan who had already put on the sorting hat, hoping that he would be sorted into the same house as her.

But at this moment, Karan, who had just put on the sorting hat, was a little shocked.

"What do you mean I was born..."

The voice of the Sorting Hat rang in his ears: "Being born with an occluded brain, like being born with Legilimency and Metamorphosis Magus, are very rare situations. This is what Dumbledore told me, so Mc Professor Ge deliberately arranged you in the last order. Why, didn't he tell you about this?"

"No." Karan thought carefully: "He took a bag of wine and left without saying anything during his home visit."

"Oh, you gave him those wines. They taste really good." The Sorting Hat praised.

"You can still drink?" Karan was shocked again.

"Hey, I'm the great Sorting Hat. Although I don't have a belly, at least I can taste it." The Sorting Hat muttered dissatisfiedly.

"Sorry." Karan noticed that he had been wearing the sorting hat for too long, so he quickly reminded: "Please sort me quickly."

"I can't do that," said the Sorting Hat.

"What" Karan asked.

"I can't do it, child." The Sorting Hat repeated again: "You are born with a closed brain, and my way of sorting is to use an ability similar to Legilimency to identify. Of course, it is not a complete Legilimency. Kamilien, after all, no wizard would want to reveal all his secrets just because his children are enrolled in school."

"What should we do?" Karan asked anxiously. The students in the lobby clearly saw that Karan had been sitting for too long.

"If you are willing, I can tell you the characteristics of the four colleges again, and then it is up to you to choose."

Karan couldn't help frowning: "This is too time-consuming."

"That's why I put you in the last one." The Sorting Hat said: "Of course, if you think it's too much trouble, how about Slytherin?"

Karan's frown deepened. He even wanted to look back at Dumbledore and ask if this was his deliberate arrangement. But fortunately, he held back and silently replied: "No."

"Really not?" the Sorting Hat asked: "Although I can't make an accurate arrangement for you like other little wizards, I can feel that you will be suitable for Slytherin, and you can even be said to be the most suitable. "

"I am a Muggle-born, what they call a Mudblood." Karan said helplessly.

"Hey kid, pay attention to the language." The Sorting Hat looked very excited: "There is no need to look down on yourself like this. In Slytherin, you are destined to be brilliant and achieve something. I can see that those little wizards are not yours at all." opponent."

"I know." Karan said suddenly.

"You know" the Sorting Hat was stunned.

"Yes, I know." Karan repeated: "My magic talent is higher than theirs, and my willingness to learn magic is stronger than theirs. Most importantly, I am more handsome than every one of their boys. Only Sirius can compare with me, the second freshman."

"You are right about that." The Sorting Hat agreed: "Even if it is a hat, it is more likely to be worn on the heads of the most handsome people."

"But." Karan changed his tone: "To be honest, after listening to the history of Hogwarts, I doubt that if it weren't for the persistence of the founder, a little wizard like me from a Muggle family would be No chance of getting into Hogwarts."

"Yes, that's right, that's right." The Sorting Hat seemed to be lost in memories, and said in a leisurely tone: "The quarrel was really fierce. It's hard to imagine that such a gentle lady could suddenly become so strong."

"I have a lot of people to teach," Karan said.

"And treat them all equally." The Sorting Hat completed Ms. Helga's point of view when selecting students.

"Well, it looks like you've made your choice, kid."

"It seems so." Karan said: "And."

"Purebloods make me sick."

The Sorting Hat was stunned for a moment, and then it shouted loudly in front of all the teachers and students in the school:

"Hufflepuff"

All the students were whispering because the time for Karan's sorting was inevitably extended. They didn't even react after the Sorting Hat called out the decision. Instead, they were all stunned.

After all, Hufflepuff doesn't seem like a hard-to-choose destination.

"Applause, kids."

The Sorting Hat kindly shouted again to avoid Karan's embarrassment.

But Karan didn't think so. He seized the last opportunity and quickly asked the Sorting Hat amidst the continuous applause: "Did Professor Dumbledore tell you to do this? Let me go to Slytherin."

"Of course not." The Sorting Hat looked very indignant: "This is a great sorting ceremony. It can only be decided by my great Sorting Hat. No principal has the right to interfere."

"What would you say to Principal Dumbledore about our conversation just now?" Karan looked at Professor McGonagall with a flattering look and bought a little more time, because the applause had begun to fade away.

"Maybe." The Sorting Hat seemed to realize that there was not much time left, so he said quickly: "After all, he is the principal of Hogwarts, and the great Sorting Hat also needs to serve him. What else is there? Are you asking, kid, you better hurry up, Professor McGonagall is very scary when she is angry."

"No more." Karan stood up, handed the sorting hat to Professor McGonagall, who was glaring at him, and whispered to it at the end.

"Thank you, the most beautiful Mr. Hat."

The Sorting Hat seemed very happy. It bowed slightly towards Callan and watched him run towards Hufflepuff House.
