Snakes in Hogwarts

Hermione Granger is in a good mood.

After being assigned to Ravenclaw College, she quickly made her first friend in life, a mature, generous, and intellectually beautiful Sister Penello.

The latter is a sixth grader at Hogwarts and the prefect of Ravenclaw.

She seemed to be very optimistic about herself, not only enthusiastically answered her own question, even when the magical eagle beak knocker asked, she also hoped that she could answer that question.

Yes, that magical eagle beak door knocker!

The girl's thoughts floated until last night. After the dinner, she and the new students walked up the ever-changing stairs under the leadership of Penello.

Their lounge is located at the highest point of the school, above the Ravenclaw Tower.

I have to say that this is definitely a physical exercise. For the students of Ravenclaw and Gryffindor, it takes a long time to climb the stairs every day.

Not to mention, the stairs in the castle are constantly changing. They vary in width or narrowness, and operate between the castles according to a certain pattern.

Even sometimes, the stairs you walked through yesterday will disappear as soon as you wake up today, or you may disappear abruptly when you walk along.

"As for the changing laws of these stairs, you can also find them on the bookshelves of the library in the lounge. There are notes on the movement rules of the stairs in the castle recorded by Ravenclaw students in previous years.

Unlike other colleges that will tell you the answers directly, Ravenclaw prefers that you get answers from books."While walking, Sister Penello was also telling the freshmen about the college where they will live for seven years.

Like Slytherin, Ravenclaw or the other two colleges each have a unique set of welcome messages.

"Ravenclaw appreciates those savvy, wise and knowledgeable students. Since you can be assigned to this college by the Sorting Hat, I believe you must have qualities that Ravenclaw agrees with." Sister Penello stopped. , I took a closer look at this group of young eagles.

"The logo of our academy is an eagle flying in the sky, symbolizing wisdom that is difficult for others to match. Our representative colors are blue and bronze. Ms. Ravenclaw believes that this is the color of wisdom.

Just as the eagle should perch on the top of the mountain, the lounge of our college is also located at the highest point of the castle. Believe me, it is definitely the best place in Hogwarts.

Whether it is the vast Black Lake or the Quidditch stadium, you can have a panoramic view."

Merlin is here!This is so cool!

Hermione fell in love with this college all at once.

It's a pity that it would be nice if Ande also came here, the girl thought with some regret.·

Under the leadership of Penello, they came to the eighth floor of the castle under a high tower with a spire. After walking along the spiraling stairs for a long time, they finally reached the top of Ravenclaw Tower. .

"Next, I want to show you how to enter the Ravenclaw lounge. Unlike other colleges, the Ravenclaw lounge does not have a fixed password.

I think you have also noticed that there is also no handle here, only an enchanted olecranon knocker."Standing in front of a door at the end of the corridor, Penello stopped.

"If you want to enter the lounge, you just have to knock on the door gently, and the eagle-beaked door knocker will ask you a question. If you can answer correctly, you can enter the Ravenclaw lounge. How, who Want to try it?"

Unlike the freshmen who were still hesitating, Hermione was the first to raise her little hand. The girl couldn't wait.

"Very good. Come here, Hermione, the question asked by the knocker is not difficult, but it may be a little confusing, like those Muggles' brain teasers."

Hermione nodded gently, then reached out her hand and knocked on the door in front of her.

"Why do people sleep? (whydopeoplegotobed?)" An ethereal voice reminded of the eagle beak door knocker.

Why do people sleep?

What is the problem?

Hermione's face wrinkled suddenly, and she understood that this problem must not be explained by the scientific theory of Muggle World.

So what is the answer?

(Do you want to guess? I will post the answer tomorrow.)

................................................. ...................

"Recovered!" Penello's voice brought the girl back to reality.

"What did you just think? You were so ecstatic? I told you not to agree for many times. What I must remind you is that every morning when the owl delivers the letter, you can’t be in a daze like just now, otherwise, you might be like Those guys suffered the same."

Looking at a few unlucky people who were hit in their heads by packages or smashed into a robe by splashed porridge or jam, Senior Sister Penello said.

"Ah~ I'm sorry, Senior Sister Penello, I just lost my mind, I'm still thinking about yesterday, that knocker~"

"Hey, your performance yesterday was already great, do you know that when I first entered school, I couldn't answer the question about the door knocker. At that time I would stand outside the door of the lounge every day when I went back, waiting for others Go back to the lounge, or someone happens to come out of it."

"I could only say that I was lucky to answer yesterday. Why did the knocker ask such strange questions?"

"Well, according to my understanding, door knockers always make us think about problems from a different perspective, which prevents us from becoming nerds who only know how to read books."

What Ravenclaw appreciates is wisdom, the desire for knowledge, and the resulting extraordinary creativity.

Especially creativity, which is what Hermione in the original book lacks. Although she has memorized every book and memorized how to release every spell, in many cases, she will fall into not knowing what to use. In the confusion of spells to solve the problem.

Ravenclaw does not approve of such wisdom.

"Stop talking about this, I suggest you eat more in the morning, and you will go to the underground classroom for class in a while."

"Thank you, Senior Sister Penello. Why are you taking care of me like this?"

"Because I appreciate your curiosity, Hermione, and your inquisitive spirit. This is the quality that a qualified Ravenclaw needs."

"Okay, Hermione, don't think about it, look over there, your little boyfriend is coming over here." Seeing Andros walking towards this side, Penello raised his mouth, laughing and joking Tao.

She found that she liked to molest Hermione very much, and felt happy every time she saw her blushing cheeks.

"Yeah~ he~ he is not my little boyfriend~ we~ we just have a better relationship." Hermione's face flushed suddenly

"How was it yesterday, Hermione?" Andros was surprised to find that Hermione's face was flushed, like a big red apple.

This made him a little confused again.

Why is Hermione's face so red?

Obviously it was okay just now?
