Snakes in Hogwarts

Chapter 23

It is said that the location and name of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry were chosen by Ravenclaw. At that time, the lady dreamed of a warthog and took her to a cliff by the lake.

Through the projection of the lake, the lady thought of the school's name, Hogwarts.

The origin of the name Hogwarts is precisely because the warthogs turned upside down with the help of the lake.

Similarly, the lady also drew the ever-changing floor plan of the castle, those unpredictable stairs, and the ceiling that can map the weather outside in real time, all of which were designed by Roina Ravenclaw.

"Am I really not dreaming?"

"You have asked this question for the fourth time, Miss Granger, and the answer I can give you is still that one. Yes, you have no dreams." Sitting on the boat that automatically slides on the water, Andros patiently Answered Hermione's questions over and over again.

"The lake in front of you, the castle not far away, even this boat, and Neville sitting opposite you, these are real, not what you imagined in your mind."

"I know, I~I just~ haven't recovered yet." Hermione still looked forward blankly. Under the quiet starry sky, a towering castle was quietly located on the high slope opposite the Black Lake.

The dazzling stars and the bright lights in the castle cast an unusually beautiful reflection on the lake, just like coming to the fairyland on earth described in the fairy tale of Shion Bidou.

"I can't help thinking, what if this is a dream? I mean, there have never been any wizards or schools of magic. These are just imaginary fantasy in my mind. I'm still the Hermione. Granger, the arrogant devil hated by everyone."

Hermione's voice gradually lowered, and if it hadn't been for Andros who was sitting next to her, she really couldn't hear what the girl said last.

"Even if this is really a dream, it is an unprecedented one, enough to remember a lifetime dream. Also, not everyone hates you, at least I don't.

I think Neville is too, right?Those people are just jealous of your smart beauty."

"Ander is right." Neville nodded hurriedly when Andros mentioned himself.

"I also think you are good." The boy didn't know it, and his toad slipped away from his palm again unconsciously, and made a new attempt to regain freedom.

Rifle may not know that every pet sold in a magical animal store or a babbling owl store has been given a spell to ensure that the pet will not betray their owner.

It is a kind of spell similar to spiritual hints, and can be simply understood as a low-profile version of Imperius Curse that can only be effective on animals.

Unless with the permission of the master, they generally cannot be too far away from their master, otherwise they will return to their master under the effect of the spell.

"Thank you, Ender, it's nice to meet you." Hermione rubbed her eyes, and a strong thought came to the girl's heart.

Maybe, I really should go to Ravenclaw, if I'm with him, I should have a very happy time.

"Head down!"

In Hagrid's shouts, they lowered their heads and passed through the ivy man covering the front of the cliff. There was a hidden hole behind it. Following the dark river, they came to a place similar to an underground dock.

"Whose toad is this?" After all the new students got off the ship, Hagrid began to check the empty ship.

"My~my, Merlin, I don’t know when he escaped."

It’s better for Ivar. I don’t like to exercise after eating. Seeing this scene, Andros quietly put his hand into his robe and touched Ivar’s little head.

"Don't touch me! You interrupted me to sleep! Hiss~"

Accompanied by a sting like a needle, Andros took out his hand in a jealousy.

Gan!

This guy is no better.

Dare to bite me!

Led by Hagrid, they continued to climb along an upward tunnel dug in the rock, and soon came to a flat and wet grass under the castle.

Not far away, on a few stone steps, a huge oak door decorated with patterns was tightly closed there.

boom!boom!boom!

After confirming that no one had been lost, Hagrid stretched out his sandbag-sized fist and slammed it heavily on the oak door in front of him, making a crash sound similar to that of an ancient siege hammer hitting the city gate.

"If it is placed in ancient times, it must be a general."

"Shh~ don't be poor, Professor McGonagall is out." Hermione kicked Andros gently.

The latter discovered that the one who came out of the slowly opened wooden door was Professor McGonagall who accompanied them to Diagon Alley to purchase school supplies.

The witch still wore the emerald green cloak, with a top-pointed wizard hat on her head, and her face was so serious that no one should get close.

"First-year freshman, Professor McGonagall."

"Thanks for your hard work, Hagrid. Everyone, follow me." Professor McGonagall's voice was not loud, but he had a feeling of inconsistency that easily shook the group of freshmen.

She naturally saw Andros and Hermione, but Professor McGonagall didn't say anything, just nodded imperceptibly.

Led by the witch, they passed through the porch and walked forward along the stone floor. This is a spacious and bright hall. The stone walls on both sides are full of burning torches, and the ceiling is high. Not at the top.

A small Quidditch match can be held here alone.

Oncoming is a section of luxurious marble, and on the left and right of the stairs is a connecting corridor.

There should be the auditorium on the right, and Andros looked at the surrounding environment silently.

This is actually pretty good judgment.

Because, even on a heavy wall, the hum of hundreds of people talking at the same time cannot be blocked.

Under the leadership of Professor McGonagall, the freshmen came to the first empty room on the left. The room was small, and after everyone had entered, there was only a little space left at the door.

"First of all, welcome everyone to Hogwarts." After everyone entered the room, Professor McGonagall came in and said.

"Before the opening banquet, we need to determine which college you each enter. This is a very important thing, because for the next seven years, the college will be your home at Hogwarts.

You will go to classes with other colleges in the college, eat and live together, or spend your leisure time together."

"You said, what methods will they use to ensure that we will be assigned to the correct college?" Hermione poked Andros lightly. They are relatively low in the freshmen, so there is no need to worry about being assigned to Professor McGonagall. Found in a whisper.

"I don't know, I haven't read the Hogwarts Sorting Ceremony in a book."

"I know, I mean, what if I am not assigned to Ravenclaw?"

So I was worried about this.

"No, you just need to be firm in your mind, so that no matter how you sort the hospital, there will be no problem."

What can Andros say?

He could not tell Hermione that the so-called sorting house was just wearing a talking wizard hat in full view. I don’t know how many years he hadn’t had a bath. Now, all the freshmen, as well as the teachers and students in the auditorium, Waiting for the hat to take a seat.

"Are you not worried at all?"

"There is nothing to worry about, Hermione, even if Ravenclaw is not assigned, so what? This school is so big, we have the opportunity to meet."

"Hmph, who wants to see you every day." Hermione replied duplicity.

"The sorting ceremony will begin in a few minutes. During these few minutes, I suggest that you tidy up your appearance." Professor McGonagall moved his gaze over Neville and the red-haired Weasley. Finally put it on Andros and Hermione.

"Also, Mr. Lobach, Miss Granger, I hope you can stop talking about love when I talk next time."

Hermione's face flushed, like a seductive red apple.

"I promise there won't be another time, Professor McGonagall." Andros slightly blocked Hermione's signature to prevent her shyness from being seen by others.

Is Professor McGonagall a cat?

Can you hear clearly from such a distance?

Will Animagus still inherit part of the hearing of cats?

"Blame you, I have to talk to me." After Professor McGonagall left, Hermione looked at Andros a bit complaining.

???

Didn't you tell me first?
