The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave
Chapter 265: The New School Year Begins
When he returned to Hogwarts on the Nightmares again, Sun Zhu was already unusually calm.
The saying "the first time is unfamiliar, the second time is familiar" is exactly this principle.
After returning to school after more than two months away, she first went to the dormitory to pack her luggage, and then ran to the auditorium impatiently.
It is the venue for the annual opening ceremony, and the division ceremony and freshman welcome ceremony will be held soon.
The senior students arrived much earlier than the freshmen due to different modes of transportation. By then, quite a few people had already arrived at the Hufflepuff table.
Many people from the other three colleges also arrived. Apart from greetings, there was only one topic of discussion: the famous Harry Potter was enrolling in Hogwarts this year.
"Which house will he go to?" Carina tilted her head with a curious look on her face. "If he has good vision, he will definitely choose Hufflepuff after knowing that the double cup winners last semester were both Hufflepuffs."
"You still like recruiting people for Hufflepuff." Duke yawned. "I don't think so. And even though he is very famous, there is no need to look forward to his coming. He is just a freshman."
"You talk weirdly." Daisy glanced at him and said, "Are you jealous that he's younger than you and has a better reputation than you? Come on, he's super cool for being able to survive the killing curse!"
"So, how did he do this?" Fina was also a little curious and glanced at Sun Zhu. "You are familiar with him, have you asked him?"
"Well, how could it be possible? I mean, this is someone's sad story, why would I bring it up? Even if I did ask him, he was only one year old at the time, what could he know?"
Fina held her face and nodded.
Sun Zhu sighed. Although Harry himself didn't know, she knew. But that didn't mean she should tell everyone about it. This was a serious secret and also Harry's pain.
"He's very cool, but also very difficult." The boy with black hair and gray eyes came over with a roll of newspaper. "Today's Daily Prophet re-introduced what happened ten years ago. I wonder if our special attention will have an effect on Mr. Potter that makes him... uncomfortable."
Sun Zhu held out her hand, and the newspaper fell into her hands as she wished. She unfolded it and found that in the page introducing the first day of school at Hogwarts - the Daily Prophet would open such a large section for Hogwarts every year on this day - in addition to Harry himself and his story, the new professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts was also mentioned, although it was only half the size of a palm.
"That's right, so don't discuss it so loudly. It would be bad if it causes trouble to him." Senior Michelle passed behind them and nodded at them.
Sun Zhu's eyes were cast towards the teacher's seat, where a new professor had already sat down. Qi Luo, who had wrapped his head in a thick cloth, making himself look like a combination of Mongolian and Middle Eastern, was looking very quiet and low-key with his head down.
In addition to him, those who were already seated included Astronomy Professor Sinistra, Charms Professor Flitwick, Care of Magical Creatures Professor Kettleburn, Muggle Studies Professor Burbage, Arithmancy Professor Victor, Ancient Runes Professor Babbling, and Flying Professor Hooch.
Professors McGonagall, Snape and Sprout had not yet taken their seats, and Newt, who was also the professor of Care of Magical Creatures, was nowhere to be found.
"Zhu, what are you reading?" Karina leaned over, "Is there anything in the newspaper?"
"Nothing, I was just wondering when they will all arrive."
The freshmen were said to have finished rowing, and Professor McGonagall had already led them to the waiting room, so where were the others? Although it was not time yet, she was bored and simply counted the number of people.
"Did you notice?" Cedric suddenly walked behind her, turned the newspaper in her hand over, and pointed to a certain place: "Look here."
Sun Zhu turned his head to look at him, then quickly lowered his head to look at the place he mentioned.
Still not a big page, there is an introduction to the personnel changes at the Ministry of Magic. At the beginning of August, Director Bones has become the new Minister, and the new Director of the Legal Department is a taciturn middle-aged man, Alan Smith. It is worth mentioning that the newly established Director of the Magical Finance Department is Minister Bones' confidant, Danny Abbott. This is all news that was announced today.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Sun Zhu's brain was a little slow, and she hadn't yet taken her attention away from the back of Qi Luo's head.
"Director Smith is said to have been transferred from the Department of International Magical Cooperation. She previously worked at the Office of International Magical Law and is a man of his word. Director Abbott was also from the Department of Law, but she was just a clerk before. It is said that everyone thought that Henry Davis from the Office of International Magical Trade would take the position, but in the end, Ms. Abbott was chosen as the director." He frowned slightly and whispered, "And this year, the children of Minister Bones and Director Abbott will both enter Hogwarts, and with Mr. Potter..."
"Do you think there are many big shots among the freshmen this year, uh, second-generation officials and rich people?" Sun Zhu guessed, "But there are only so many wizards in total. Who doesn't have a few relatives working in the Ministry of Magic? This is normal."
"It may be that my father always talks about these things. Many of his colleagues in the Department of Magical Creatures have been transferred away, and many new people have come. He is not used to it." He sat down next to her. "I always feel that something is going to happen. This semester is really unusual."
"Young man, you are very perceptive." Sun Zhu smiled and patted his shoulder. "Relax, even if something really happens, it won't happen so quickly."
Cedric raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "Zhu, you seem to be in a good mood today, are you expecting someone?"
"Yes, the new students will be here soon." She saw Snape, Sprout, Trelawney and Pomfrey walk in together. Divination professor Sybill Trelawney seemed to be feeling a little uncomfortable. She kept covering her head and muttering something, while Madam Pomfrey lowered her head and talked to her.
Professor Snape sat down with a cold face and said nothing, while Professor Sprout waved towards the Hufflepuff table as a greeting.
Only Dumbledore and Newt have not arrived yet. Hagrid and Professor McGonagall should still be with the freshmen, but I don't know what these two big guys are busy with.
"Oh, is that Mr. Potter?" he asked casually.
"Ah? Of course not." Sun Zhu shook his head and looked at him and said, "Harry and I are already very familiar with each other. Only those who don't know him would look forward to getting to know him. I just want to see if there are any freshmen in this class who can do great things at first glance."
"What's the big deal?"
"For example, overthrowing the Ministry of Magic, defeating the mysterious man, etc." Sun Zhu pretended to be deep and said: "In fact, I have the same feeling as you. This class of freshmen must be regarded as the most dazzling generation of students in Hogwarts in recent years, commonly known as the golden generation."
Cedric laughed and covered his eyes.
