The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

The hat twisted, a gap like a mouth was split in the brim, and it began to sing:

[I was wearing a new hat a long time ago, before Hogwarts was built;

The four founders of Hogwarts wanted to build the best wizarding school in the world.

At that time, the wizards were not in a good situation. The noose of the church, the guillotine of the king!

Hardships cannot be chains, and Hogwarts is quickly built.

Friendship is sincere and firm, teaching is pleasant and harmonious;

The goblin's war was quelled, and the enemy's tentacles were mercilessly cut off.

The singing and dancing in the auditorium cannot stop for a while, and there will always be inexhaustible delicacies on the table!

The fire of wisdom is burning in the classroom, and the song of courage resounds in the sky!

Pure blood, wise mind, extraordinary courage, equal thought.

It is difficult to have both noble qualities, and differences lead to small quarrels.

Disputes are intensifying, and the school is about to collapse.

Countless quarrels, endless strife,

The good friends of the past turned against each other, and the old enemies returned.

Blood and Fire, Soldiers and Ge.

The dispute finally subsided, but Slytherin chose to leave.

Live in harmony, unite as one, fight against differences, and fight against each other.

The age of wizards is over, and a new age has yet to come.

The storm is coming, can the house with broken pillars shelter from the wind and rain?

Know the danger, read the signs, and the lessons of history warn us!

The enemy outside the school is eyeing the tiger, but the students inside are ignorant;

Great and mighty predecessors will hold the last shelter for us,

We still have time for the last feast, or to sharpen our knives and guns.

I have spoken to you, and I have raised the alarm for you.

Remember the motto of the Big Four:

courage! wisdom! Proud! tolerate!

The sun sets in the west, the moon rises in the east, the sun and the moon alternate, and the new and the old Lunheng.

Come on, come put me on! Don't be afraid! Don't panic!

Leave everything to me, because I am a thinking hat!]

The hat stood still again, and after a moment of silence there was applause mingled with murmurs in the auditorium.

In the auditorium, the classmates were whispering to the people around them. Tom clapped like the others, but he had something to say in his stomach.

"There seems to be something wrong with this year's song?" Hermione raised her eyebrows. Generally speaking, the Sorting Hat is only responsible for describing the qualities that the four colleges focus on and the style of the colleges, and finally indicates that it is the one who sorts the students for the students. It is not the Sorting Hat's job to advise schools.

Hermione's voice revealed a hint of unease, "There have been too many strange things this year. I wonder if this hat has issued a similar warning before?" Hermione looked at LaVine who had just floated in and was sitting beside Tom. The ghost of Crowe, Lady Grey.

"Well, it did," she said coldly. "When the Sorting Hat feels it's his duty to warn the school, it does so—"

She stopped because Professor McGonagall took out a roll of parchment and glared sternly at the chattering classmates in the audience, and everyone shut their mouths knowingly - Headmaster Dumbledore is not here, Professor McGonagall is The first person in the school.

Tom sat quietly under the stage, listening to Professor McGonagall calling the freshmen to the stage, putting sorting hats on their heads, and assigning them to the most suitable colleges for them.

His hands started to get restless, first slipping under the table and then climbing up Hermione's lap - where he wanted to write and draw, but Hermione's hand held it. He could only do the next best thing, and wrote in Hermione's palm: Soldiers come to block, water to earth cover (Note)

Hermione felt an itch in her palm, but she understood Tom's words, so she replied: We can always trust Dumbledore.

Ms. Gray noticed the small movements of the two, glanced at Tom who was enjoying it, rolled her eyes, turned her head and ignored them.

When the last freshman also learned of his college, the sorting ceremony ended.

Professor McGonagall put away the Sorting Hat, moved the four-cornered stool aside, and stood again at the podium where Dumbledore usually spoke.

"Before everyone has a sumptuous dinner, I want to say a few words briefly," Professor McGonagall cleared her throat and waited for the noise in the auditorium to disappear before she spoke: "I saw many students because of Dumbledore I feel puzzled by the absence of the professor. I think this kind of thing needs to be said, so that everyone will not be suspicious. Professor Dumbledore is very busy, and there are many important things in the magical world that need to be decided by him. Today, he has an important meeting and cannot escape. , so let me officiate the opening ceremony for him, and tomorrow you'll see Headmaster Dumbledore enjoying his breakfast pudding."

Hearing that it was a temporary matter, the little wizards felt relieved, and a little doubt flashed in their hearts: What kind of meeting would make Professor Dumbledore want to attend the opening ceremony instead?

After giving the little wizards a reassurance, Professor McGonagall continued: "As you must already know, the Dementors of Azkaban searched the Hogwarts Express this afternoon. I'm very sorry. Let me tell you, the school will be hosting a number of Dementors on Ministry of Magic duties this school year."

Speaking of this, Professor McGonagall's face darkened. Dumbledore and her and the school's professors were actually very unhappy about the dementors guarding the school, but they couldn't get away.

"Every passage in and out of the school will be guarded by dementors. I must make it clear to you in advance that no one is allowed to leave the school without permission~www.wuxiamtl.com~ All kinds of tricks or disguise cannot deceive the dementor. Weird - not even the Invisibility Cloak." Professor McGonagall didn't look at anyone when he said this, but Harry and Ron knew it was for them.

"Dementors are different from wizards in that they cannot understand requests or excuses, they have their own way of behaving. So I warn you: don't give them any opportunity or reason to hurt you. Prefects of the Houses and newly appointed male and female student councils It is up to the chairperson to ensure that no student conflicts with the Dementors."

Percy, who was sitting at the Gryffindor headmaster's table, puffed out his chest and looked around seriously. At this time, no one in the entire auditorium made a sound, and everyone fell into silence.

"The following are two pieces of good news," Professor McGonagall adjusted his mood and continued, "This year, our teaching team has welcomed two new members. I am very happy to welcome two new colleagues."

"Two?" The little wizards in the audience were taken aback, and it's no surprise that a new professor came, because the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts was cast every year, but who is the second professor?

Their eyes wandered over the faculty chair, and finally locked on a vacancy.
