Circe made a solemn determination before the start of school, she must act in a low-key manner. Her experience in the previous life showed that high-profile people die quickly. In order to live longer in this life, she swore to Merlin that she would never seek trouble.

But she forgot that things in this world often backfire.

Circe found an unoccupied compartment, put his luggage away, and then took a copy of "The Encyclopedia of Alchemy" to study carefully.Probably because of the enchantment, after entering three-quarters of the station, she found that modern communication tools could not be used here. If she wanted to communicate with her family, she had to use an owl, but Circe didn't believe it, Huo Gewartz doesn't know how to check letters. In order to make the contact more convenient and safe, Circe decided to learn more about alchemy and make communication tools by himself.

Just when she was fascinated by it, a toad slipped in through the crack of the door and quickly jumped onto the book.Before she could recover, she saw a group of people squeezed in.

Please be alone for a while! ! !

Standing at the front was her newly acquainted little friend Hermione. She happily said to the sad round-faced boy standing behind her, "Here is your toad, Neville! Don't be sad, I'll just say I will help you find it."

Following them was the scarred boy and one of the red-headed children that Circe had seen at the station, also relieved that Neville had found Toad.

Before they had time to celebrate, the last three boys standing in the middle sneered, "It's just an ugly toad, and it's worth all the trouble! Huh, the Longbottom family, a bunch of idiots!" Neville's face twitched. The child is red.

"How? Am I wrong?"

"Shut up, Malfoy, you're not allowed to say that about Neville!" Hermione immediately stood up to defend her friend.

"Hmph, Mudbloods don't deserve to talk to me!" Malfoy turned to the Scared Boy, "Everyone on the train was buzzing that Harry Potter was in this compartment.So, that's you.Right"

"Yes," replied the scarred boy who was the famous Harry Potter.

"Oh! I think I need to introduce myself, my name is Malfoy, Draco-Malfoy. This is Crabbe, and this is Goyle," Malfoy pointed to the two boys standing beside him, all present They all held back so as not to laugh out loud.Draco Malfoy looked at them. "Think my name is ridiculous, don't you need to ask who you are. My father told me that the Weasleys are all red-haired, freckled, and have too many children to support. And that one over there, you You're a Mudblood too! Why are you laughing?"

Before Circe realized that she was actually talking about her, Hermione jumped, "Why do you say she's a mudblood! Don't you ask for names before talking to others? She's Circe, you'd better remember. You have to learn how to be polite!"

"Circe?" Malfoy laughed, "How dare you call him Circe, do you know who Circe is?"

Hermione was obviously taken aback. The red-haired boy happened to be holding a picture of the Chocolate Frog in his hand, and he showed Hermione the picture about Circe inside.

"So what? My name is Circe, so what?" Circe closed the book and stood up. She felt that if she was still low-key at this time, she should not be called Circe-Holmes, but Circe - Our Lady - Sherlock Holmes is gone.They were all slapped in the face by name, it was unbearable.

"It's none of your business what my name is. You don't care, now, get out!" Circe stepped forward and said to Malfoy,

As soon as the words fell, Malfoy felt as if something was pushing him, and took a few steps back, standing on the aisle of the carriage.

He gave Crabbe and Goyle a hard look, blaming them for not holding him back.He didn't dare to look at Circe again, but said to that Mr. Potter: "You will soon find out that some wizarding families are much better than others, Potter. You don't want to make friends with strange people, do you?" .I can help you with that.”

Harry Potter replied coldly: "I think I can tell that Huai is different, thank you."

A faint blush appeared on Draco Malfoy's pale cheeks.

"If I were you, Potter, I'd be extra careful," he said slowly. "You should be polite, or you'll end up going the same way as your parents. They don't know what to do. If you hang out with dubious people like the Weasleys or the Mudbloods, you'll be affected. Yes." After speaking, he took his two followers and left.

"One day I'm going to punch him in the face." Ron Weasley stared at Malfoy's back.

"Okay, don't be angry," Hermione handed the toad to Neville, "Hurry up and go back to your compartments and put on your wizard robes, the train will be at Hogwarts soon. Oh, by the way, Ron, you've got a mess on your nose."

Circe glanced out the car window.Only then did I realize that it was already dark.The sky outside the window was a deep purple, and mountains and trees flew by.After a while, the train seemed to slow down.

"The train will arrive at Hogwarts in 5 minutes. Please leave your luggage on the train, and we will send you to school." The voice echoed on the train.The students all came out of the carriages, and the aisle was full of people.

The train slowed down and finally stopped.Passengers pushed and shoved, rushed to the door, and descended onto a dark and small platform.On the platform there was only one lamp bobbing over the students' heads, and a voice shouted, "FIRST YEARS! FIRST YEARS HERE!"

On top of the crowd of thousands of people, a giant with a big beard smiled. "Come on, come with me, there are still first-year freshmen? Watch out for your feet, okay! First-year freshmen come with me!"

They followed the bearded giant down a steep and narrow path.It was pitch black on both sides of the path, and no one spoke.Circe heard only the occasional sniff or two from the boy named Neville, as if he'd lost his toad again.

"Turn this corner, and you will soon see Hogwarts for the first time." The bearded giant shouted back.He was answered with a loud "Whoah!" A black lake suddenly appeared at the end of the narrow path.On the high hillside on the other side of the lake stood a towering castle in Sercy's eyes. There were many spiers on the castle, and the lights shone brightly under the night sky, all of a sudden dispelling the unhappiness of the journey.They need to cross the lake by boat to get there.

"No more than four people per boat!" said the bearded giant, pointing to a fleet of small boats moored on the shore.The newborn little wizards consciously obeyed his words. "Is it all aboard?" cried the bearded giant, who filled a boat by himself.

"Go ahead!" A group of small boats drove forward across the calm lake at once.Circe guessed that the ships might have been enchanted beforehand.

"Heads down!" cried the bearded giant as the first boats approached the cliff where the castle stood.All bowed their heads, and the boat carried them through the curtain of ivy that covered the face of the cliff, and into a secret open entrance.The boat passed through a dark tunnel before arriving at a place that resembled an underground pier,

"Hey, look! Is this your toad?" Hagrid said as the students disembarked, as he checked the empties. "Thanks Merlin!" Neville called ecstatically, arms outstretched.

Then they climbed up a tunnel in the rock, and finally reached the grass in front of the castle after coming out of the tunnel.There was a huge oaken door in the castle, and when everyone was standing, the bearded giant raised his enormous fist and knocked three times on the oaken door.Circe worried about whether he would knock on the door.

The door opened almost immediately.A tall dark-haired witch in emerald green robes stood in front of the gate.She looked very serious.

"Freshman, Professor McGonagall," said the bearded giant.

"Thank you, Hagrid. Just leave it to me here."

She pulls the whole door open.In the hall, on both sides of the stone walls are blazing torches.The ceiling was enchanted and seemed so high that it was almost impossible to see the top.The freshmen followed the serious Professor McGonagall to the stairs. There was a door on the right at the end of the stairs. Even in the hall where there was no Circe, everyone could hear the buzzing voice from the door. Other classes in the school His classmates must have arrived—they should be at the other end of the hall by now, Circe thought.

"Welcome to Hogwarts," said Professor McGonagall. "The opening banquet is about to begin, but before you go to the dining hall, you must first confirm which college you have entered. Classification is a This is an important ceremony, because the college is like your home at Hogwarts while you are at school. You will attend classes with other students in the college, live in the college dormitory together, and spend time together in the college common room Spend spare time." The names of the four houses are: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin.Each house has its own glorious history and has produced outstanding wizards and wizards.During your time at Hogwarts, your good performance will earn your house points, while any violations will cost your house points.At the end of the year, the House with the highest score wins the House Cup, a great honor.I hope that no matter which house you are assigned to, you can bring glory to the house.

"In a few minutes, the sorting ceremony will be held in front of all the teachers and students of the school. I suggest that you tidy up yourselves and be more energetic while you wait." She glanced past the little wizards, and Neville held his hands tightly. Ron rubbed his nose vigorously.The other young wizards were also very nervous, and even Malfoy didn't have time to make trouble for others.Of course, these people did not include Circe, who now regretted not buying something to eat on the train, and her stomach was about to growl.

"I'll pick you up when it's ready over there." Professor McGonagall said, "At that time, please keep quiet." As soon as the serious Professor McGonagall left the room.Circe heard large and small exhalations.While finding it funny, I also envied their innocence.No matter how much she pretended, she was different from a real child. Her heart had already fallen asleep in the wilderness, and she might never wake up.

Hermione next to her was chanting words, and Circe listened for a while and found that she was reciting the spells in the textbook. At this moment, a strange thing happened, and several students screamed loudly.

"That's—" The people around turned pale with fright.Circe turned to see a score or so ghosts popping out of the wall behind them.The ghosts, gliding across the room, whispered to each other, and a plump little monk-like ghost said, "Forgive, forget, I say, we should give him another chance—"

"My good friar, don't we give Peeves enough chances? But he's got us all ugly nicknames. You know, he can't even handle a basic ghost--I say, you What are you doing here?" A ghost in tights suddenly spots the freshman.No one answered. "New students!" said the chubby monk, smiling at them. "I think it's probably ready to take the test." Some students nodded silently. "Hope you get a Hufflepuff!" said the Friar. "I used to go to that house." "Move forward now," said a shrill voice. "The Sorting is about to begin."

Professor McGonagall returned, and the ghosts hurried through the opposite wall. "Now, stand in single file," Professor McGonagall said to the first-years, "follow me."

Walking through that door is another world.The senior students who had just whispered were divided into four rows and sat in the hall, with the principal and professors at the front.Professor McGonagall gently placed a four-legged stool in front of the first-year students, and placed a pointed wizard hat on the stool.The hat was patched, worn out, and very dirty.

Then the hat began to sing, hoarsely, and Circe couldn't help but quietly shut off her hearing, and she didn't open it again until the hat finished singing and bowed to everyone.

Professor McGonagall took a few steps forward, holding a roll of parchment in his hand. "Whoever's name I call now will put on a hat, sit on a stool, and wait for the sorting." She said,

The little wizards came forward one by one, and Circe noticed that Harry Potter was assigned to Gryffindor. The headmaster Dumbledore, who was sitting in the middle, seemed to bend the corner of his mouth, and his little friend, the red-haired Ron.Also sorted into the same house, Hermione got her wish and entered Gryffindor.

Circe's turn came, and she stepped forward gently to let Professor McGonagall put the old hat on her head, and then she heard the hoarse voice say, "Hey! Good points, you have strength, but you have no ambition, no fear, and you certainly don’t have the courage to move forward, so there are only Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw, where do you choose to go?”

"Ravenclaw" Circe replied firmly,

"Looks like you've figured it out, then—Ravenclaw!" the Sorting Hat shouted,

There were cheers in her ears, and it was the people of Ravenclaw who were applauding to welcome her to join.

Maybe I'll have a home again!Circe thought happily, and walked towards Ravenclaw...
