Everyone finished singing the school song.

Only the Weasley twins continued to sing along with the slow melody of the”Funeral March.” Dumbledore conducted the last few bars for them both, and when they finished, he applauded the loudest.

“Music,” said Dumbledore, wiping his eyes,”is more charming than anything we do here! It’s bedtime now. Let’s go back to the dormitory.”

Everyone stood up.

The new students of Ravenclaw, led by the male prefect Robert Hilliard and the female prefect Penello Crevat, climbed the marble stairs and headed towards the Ravenclaw Tower. Let’s go.

Penello has long curly brown hair and is very beautiful. She softly introduced the new students:”The emblem of our college is an eagle. Do you know why?”

The freshmen replied in a neat and long voice:”I don’t know~”

There was an illusion that kindergarten children answered questions, Ives thought with a smile.

A smile appeared on Penello’s face,”Although Ravenclaw The meaning is raven’s talon, but our founder Rowena Ravenclaw chose the eagle as our emblem. This is because the eagle is not only a smart animal, but also very strong and powerful, capable of soaring to unreachable heights.”

“So I wish you can be like an eagle, show your extraordinary talents in study, and have a good body in life.”

Everyone applauded her sincere words.

After everyone climbed up another steep step, the male prefect Robert introduced:”Our common room is located at the top of the Ravenclaw Tower, which is the center of the entire Hall. The tallest tower in Gwarts. Through the windows of the common room, you can have a panoramic view of Hogwarts Castle.

There was a proud smile on his face. Terry Butt, who was at the end of the queue, had a tired face, and he couldn’t help but complain:”It is also the common room that requires the longest distance.””

Robert was suddenly embarrassed, and did not finish what he was going to say for a long time.

A burst of good-natured laughter broke out in the team.

In the whispers of the portrait, everyone climbed up one step after another. Until Ives felt a little dizzy, They stopped in front of a huge wooden door.

The wooden door was bare except for a rusty bronze eagle-head knocker on the doorknob.

“This is the entrance to the Ravenclaw common room,” Penello said,”Unlike other colleges, our college has a very special way of entering the common room. We didn’t have a password, we just had to answer a question on the door knocker to get into the common room.”

“answer the questions?”Padma Patil raised her own questions

“That’s right,” Penello said seriously,”As thinking Ravenclaws, the way we enter the common room is so unique. For nearly a thousand years, no one except Ravenclaw could pass this simple barrier.”

She had pride on her face

“Some new students are afraid of knocker questions, but don’t worry, Ravenclaws are good at learning and you will soon learn to enjoy the challenge of knocker setting. It’s not unusual to see 20 people standing outside the common room trying to answer the day’s questions together.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Robert cooperated and pulled the door knocker and knocked twice. The bronze eagle head came to life, opened its mouth, and an ethereal female voice came:”Betty, John and William are good friends. Among the three of them,.

.. , one of them is doing business in Diagon Alley, one is working as a dragon tamer in Romania, and one is working as an Auror in the Ministry of Magic. We already know: William is older than the Aurors; the Dragon Tamer is younger than John; Betty’s age is different from the Dragon Tamer’s age”

“Excuse me, who among these three people is the businessman? Who is the Dragon Tamer? Who are Aurors?

Penello looked at the freshmen with a smile,”Who wants to give it a try?””

Everyone was lost in thought.

Ives got the answer to a simple logic question after a little thought. He looked at Hermione.

The girl was frowning at the moment, muttering something in her mouth, and raising her right hand in the air to point. Click.

After a short while, Ivis and Hermione raised their hands at the same time.

“Very good, Avis. Penello said with satisfaction. During the sorting ceremony, this polite boy left a deep impression on her.

Hermione pouted, a little unhappy.

“We already know that William is older than the Auror and the Dragon Tamer is younger than John. So we deduce that the middle age among the three is William the Dragon Tamer”

“John is the oldest and Auror is the youngest. So John is the businessman and Betty is the Auror. Ives talked confidently.

The bronze door knocker was very happy,”That’s the right answer.””

“Very cool.”The two prefects applauded and expressed their appreciation. Among the freshmen in previous years, very few could answer the door knocker question correctly for the first time. Being able to come up with the answer in such a short time, Ives’s thinking ability is worthy of recognition. Aiweis’s thinking ability is worthy of recognition. Weiss politely bowed to thank him.

With a creak, the wooden door opened, revealing the common room inside.

Everyone followed the prefect and filed into the common room.

The Ravenclaw common room is a large round room. It is a shaped room with elegant arched windows on the walls. Many sky-blue silks are hung on the windows, and Ravenclaw students can have an unobstructed view of Hogwarts Castle from here. The ceiling is dome-shaped and decorated with bright lights. There are twinkling stars, and the same stars are dotted on the dark blue carpet on the white marble floor.

There are many tables, chairs, bookshelves, and even sofas in the lounge. A huge fireplace is surrounded in the middle, because it is summer , so there was no fire in the fireplace.

Directly opposite the wooden door, there was a huge white marble statue of Rowena Ravenclaw. The marble statue was carved lifelike, and Ravenclaw’s sapphire blue pupils seemed to She was thinking about something. There was a teasing smile on her face, and following her gaze, there was a large floor-to-ceiling window, and it was dark outside.

There was a delicate ring made of marble on top of her head. Engraved with small words – Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind.

Two doors opened next to the statue leading to the male and female dormitories above.

Robert said loudly:”Welcome to Ravenclaw Academy again!” Our emblem is an eagle, soaring high at the unreachable peak; our colors are sky blue and bronze”

“I hope you will have a happy student career in Ravenclaw!”The two prefects said in unison.

There was warm applause in the lounge.
