Golden glitter

The commotion on the night of the World Cup was judged by the Ministry of Magic as the evil deeds of some petty thieves trying to survive, taking risks and pretending to be powerful. The true identities of those "little thieves" were also announced in the "Daily Prophet" the next day.The ostentatious Dark Mark was defined as a nasty little wizard's nasty prank, but no one was mentioned.

Minister Fudge said: We should strengthen discipline for those naughty little wizards, but don't ruin that child's future for this, a little joke-yes, the Ministry of Magic has found out who put the mark- .For children, we should be tolerant.At the end, Fudge also specially reminded the public: Beware of theft.

Because of the clarification from the government department, most people quickly put aside the uneasiness that night, and they still have to be busy with their ordinary lives.Only those who were really keen and intuitively exposed to that dark war smelled something different.The peace of just a dozen years is about to be broken.

In the presidential suite of a five-star hotel in London, England, Lucius threw aside the newspaper he had scanned. The "Daily Prophet" is controlled by the Ministry of Magic, and the information that can be disclosed is limited. With just one glance, all the information that should be known has been grasped.Without the news of Crouch, this year's Ministry of Magic is really stupid.The uneasiness in his heart continued to expand, and with Narcissa's consent, Lucius decided on the last stop of the trip - Black's old house, Narcissa Malfoy's natal home, and Sirius Black has been reluctant to go back. His real Home.

The house numbers in Grimmauld Square are very strange. No. 11 is followed by No. 13. Someone tried to build No. 12, but for some reason, it disappeared.It has been weird for a long time, but people have become accustomed to it.Nothing happened anyway, did it?But everyone who lives here doesn't know that No. 12, Grimmauld Place, exists, right between No. 11 and No. 13, which are separated by a wall.

In the evening, No. 11 and No. 13 were squeezed apart, and an old-fashioned house appeared in front of Narcissa.As the former Miss Black, Narcissa, with the blood of the Black family, was allowed to enter this old house surrounded by layers of magic without the owner's objection.

The last owner of the house, her aunt, had passed away many years ago.She has given birth to two heirs, but she can only arrange the funeral by her niece who has been married and transformed.

Narcissa came to the portrait of the old lady in black mourning, on the wall directly opposite the gate, where she could see the position of the children and grandchildren who came back to this family for the first time.She hung it with her own hands, and she can only do this for her.Greetings, greetings, with Mrs. Walburga's consent, the door opened, and the existing Malfoy family visited this family famous for black magic.In the dim but clean big house, it seemed to be injected with life again.

No one knew what they talked about that day, but the Floo network had been restored again in Black's old house, which had been silent for ten years.Another line has been added to the intricate civilian Floo network system, and the ordinary Floo network administrators will not notice its significance.

The four members of the Malfoy family went back to their manor that afternoon. After all, if a Slytherin family stays in another declining family for too long, it will still provoke those "just people" to gossip.Instead, Draco and Minato were free. After obtaining permission, they would often fly from the fireplace in the other village to the place where their mother grew up.Narcissa will also come to take care of the old house and accompany her lonely aunt.

Yes, the one that passes through the fireplace of the old house is: Blake's blood within three generations.This is also the basic condition for those who are eligible to inherit the Black family.Although, no one thought about it except Mrs. Walburga.

Until the beginning of school, Lucius did not find out anything about the Crouch family. Should it be said that he was born in Slytherin?It's really impeccable in doing things!But another piece of news that was suppressed by the Ministry of Magic made Lucius have to raise his vigilance, and he was glad that he had made arrangements a year in advance: Azkaban Prison Break, Peter Pettigrew, Bellatrix Lester The Lankeys and the three Death Eaters escape.

On September 9st, it was not the first time to take the Hogwarts Express. For the first time, Watergate completely completed the process of starting school-boarding-getoff--it was carried down because of an attack last year-- — It can only be said that he also has the physique to cause trouble.Minato, who is already in the second grade, has no chance to take the small road and take the boat again, and her elders and friends often complain about it.After getting out of the car, several people went together to the place where the carriage was parked.

The carriage was a four-person carriage, and when it reached Shuimen and the others, there was already one person in the carriage.The blue collar flower and the copper eagle on the chest showed that she was a Ravenclaw. Several people who didn't see the lion got into the car without stopping.The girl opposite had long light blond hair, and her light gray pupils were dilated very large, making her look a little lifeless and chattering.

Minato sat down next to the girl, opposite Draco and Blaise.Looking up, he was stunned by the creature he saw in front of him.Right in front of the carriage, there is a horse-shaped skeleton, and the black skeleton is carrying a pair of wide bat wings.As if noticing Minato's gaze, the creature turned its head, its white eyes without pupils looked at Minato, then turned back quietly.

"That's thestrals," an ethereal female voice sounded in his ears, Minato turned his head, it was the Ravenclaw girl, "Only those who have witnessed death can see them."

Minato noticed that the girl was still looking ahead when she spoke, and the black creature was clearly reflected in her big light-colored eyes. "You can see it too." Minato's tone was declarative, and he used "also".The girl nodded. There was nothing wrong with admitting it, although many people thought it was ominous.

Draco and Blaise looked back, but they saw nothing, no matter how hard they tried to keep their eyes open.

"Minato Malfoy, my name. May I know you?" Minato asked the girl politely.

"Luna, Luna Lovegood, Ravenclaw third year. Of course." The Ravenclaw girl, no, Luna, continued in her erratic voice, "I know you, S A sophomore in Raitlin, the person who assisted Professor Snape in capturing Pedilu last semester." Minato said silently in his heart, "That guy has already run away", without showing it at all on the surface.

"Yo, I didn't expect our little Minato to be so famous. I even know the beauties in Ravenclaw. I'm almost catching up with me!" Blaise never missed a chance to tease Minato. It's a mature and calm look.

"I also know you, fourth year Slytherin, playboy, female public enemy recognized by all four houses." Luna's erratic voice hit the Black Prince like a prophecy.

Draco snorted, he wasn't worried at all, this level couldn't hurt his friend's face. "Draco Malfoy, nice to meet you, beautiful and wise lady."

"Thank you. I'm also glad to meet you, Mr. Malfoy. Although there are already two of you here." The girl smiled mischievously, making Minato miss the convenience of being called by first name again.

"By the way, let's talk about the Thestrals. I've only heard about them in some books. What does the real thing look like?" Sure enough, Bryce was resurrected with full blood, and everyone cut in just after the introduction, "Della Ke, you can’t see it either!” He also pulled his comrades.

"But I should have." Draco didn't cooperate with him.His unreasonable words attracted the two people's attention, "When Minato picked up the wand, it ran out of the wand, which looked like a black horse skeleton with wings."

"Yes," Minato said, taking out his own wand. The body of the wand was white, and laymen would not be able to see anything. "The core of the wand contains bone meal of thestrals."

"Thestrals are made of materials. They are rare. The only known material is the Elder Wand. Besides, white wands are also rare. Is it yew or elderberry?"

"Yew."

"Then there are other materials, yew and thestral are both of dark attribute!" Ravenclaw seemed to know everything, even this kind of thing.

"Hey, there's also Phoenix blood."

This is the end of the discussion about wands or thestrals, and there will be more people who don't understand.The topic of boys and girls was quickly led by Blaise to other places, such as the "Triwizard Tournament" that will be reopened at Hogwarts this semester.

Minato looked at the skeleton-only creature in front of him, raised his feet, lowered it, and pulled the carriage forward. Almost all the children believed that the carriage was powered by magic.Thestral, also known as the black magic star, is a legendary creature that guides the dead to the underworld.Until, "Watergate!"

"What?" Minato smiled and apologized after being recalled by the sudden roll call, "Sorry, I was distracted just now."

"Really, it's really strange that you can be distracted by hearing such exciting things." Draco complained half-truthfully, "We were just talking about the Triwizard Tournament, what do you have? view?"

"It's the Triwizard Tournament," Lucius had already brought back the news during the summer vacation.In Minato's eyes, this is of the same nature as the Chunin Exam - the epitome of war between countries.That's what he said, "The three magic schools represent the three systems in the current European magic world. The so-called 'Triwizard Tournament' is the competition between the three magic forces. I am afraid that these areas were hostile to each other... In other words, the so-called Triwizard Tournament is the epitome of war in the magic world."

"..." There was no sound, and for a while, the whole carriage only echoed with the "squeaky" sound of the wheels turning.

Draco was the first to come to his senses, and slapped his forehead. Didn't he already get used to his brother's serious and alternative way of thinking?It's normal not to understand, and it's strange to understand yourself. "Forget it, let's discuss it among ourselves. According to Slytherin's rules, don't put yourself in danger, so the Tournament is a grand show for us."

Blaise also came back to his senses after throwing Minato's remarks out of his head: "Second." Both of them obviously said it to Luna.

The speeches of the two boys finally awakened the contemplative Luna: "From your analysis, it seems that there is really nothing to participate in the final match." The Ravenclaw girl obviously thought of more, and she will Will think more.

The carriage quickly drove to the castle, and in front of the oak gate, after making an appointment to contact her later, Luna bid farewell to the three Slytherins and went to her own college.She now has a lot of topics that she wants to study with her classmates, the so-called top three competitions, the so-called Slytherin, about the four houses, about... Ravenclaw, see with their eyes, think with their brains, use their With the verification of their knowledge, they have been looking at the truth of history, and they can keep looking at it.

=================================================================== ==========================

That was more than 1000 years ago, I was just woven into shape,

There are four famous wizards whose names survive today:

Brave Gryffindor, from the barren swamp;

Fair Ravenclaw, from the quiet riverside;

Kind Hufflepuff, from the open valley;

The shrewd Slytherin came from that quagmire.

They share a dream, a wish,

At the same time, there is a bold plan to cultivate young wizards into talents, and Hogwarts School was founded in this way.

These four great wizards each founded their own houses, and they had different ideas about the talents they valued in the students they taught:

Gryffindor believes that the bravest should receive the highest reward;

Ravenclaw feels that those with the brightest minds are always the most promising;

Hufflepuff felt that those who worked hardest were the most qualified to enter the house;

The power-hungry Slytherin likes ambitious teenagers most.

The four wizards personally selected their favorite students when they were alive, but when they were buried in Jiuquan, how to select the talents among the students?

It was Gryffindor who figured out a way, he took me off his head, and the Big Four injected me with ideas, and I will choose and evaluate from then on!

Well, put me on the head well, I've never looked past, I'm going to take a look at your mind and decide which academy you belong to!

- "The Sorting Hat Song"

The sharp and piercing singing made most people choose to "close their ears and listen".Because of the tradition of wizards, the only unprepared freshman was stunned by the moment the Sorting Hat opened its mouth.As the only witness of the thousand-year history, many truths revealed by the Sorting Hat have been missed.

Minato listened to the veteran's lyrics the whole time—this level of "magic sound" couldn't shake him at all. Thinking back to the time when everyone went to the izakaya together, Kay and the others howled after being drunk was much more terrifying than this.Why did you remember the past again?But I really miss it, minna (everyone).

"Never seen it before"?Minato looked at Dumbledore on the professor's chair, half-moon glasses concealed too sharp vision.Thinking of the old wizard's hobby of poking around other people's heads, and looking at the Sorting Hat, maybe this is his Gryffindor trait?

At the beginning of the separation, the old students broke their spells one after another.Draco looked at Minato with a calm face, poked him, and asked slightly twisted: "Don't tell me, you like the 'singing' of the Sorting Hat."

Minato cast a reassuring look at his brother who might be frightened, meaning how is it possible, and then explained: "The Sorting Hat's song is really ugly, but there are a lot of information in the lyrics, "A Piece of Hogwarts School History" "There is no record."

"for example?"

"For example, the sorting hat is actually Gryffindor's broken hat."

"Oh, how can there be a 'hat' with such unacceptable taste!"

What Minato didn't say is that Gryffindor himself probably likes to peek into other people's minds.

At the end of the dinner, the principal announced the holding of the "Triwizard Tournament", and the little animals went back to their dormitories with excitement.Maybe there are still a few people who are a little bit dissatisfied?Those seniors who love Quidditch and are determined to drag the water into the water.
