Harry Potter’s Natural Villain
Chapter 8 Branch
It was getting dark, and Malfoy glanced out the window inadvertently, only to see mountains and woods under the deep purple sky. The train gradually slowed down.
The train will arrive at Hogwarts in five minutes. Please leave your luggage on the train and we will take you to school. ' the voice echoed on the train.
It's finally here. Hearing this voice, a strange emotion rose from Malfoy's heart, and there was a little confusion in the excitement, perhaps the most realistic portrayal of his heart.
The train slowed down and finally stopped. Pushing and shoving, the passengers rushed to the door and descended to a dark and small platform. Malfoy put the book back in the suitcase and joined the crowd.
Hiss. Malfoy couldn't help taking a breath. The temperature outside the car is not high.
First-year freshmen! First-year freshmen come here, be careful of your feet. An unusually tall man was maintaining order, with a bushy beard on his face.
I guess he really has giant blood. Malfoy looked at Hagrid silently.
Then the freshmen followed Hagrid slipping and stumbling, seemingly down a steep, narrow path. It was pitch black on both sides of the road.
Cut this corner and you're about to see Hogwarts for the first time, Hagrid called back. Then there was a loud Oh--! A black lake suddenly opened at the end of the narrow path. On the high hillside on the other side of the lake stands a majestic castle with spires and windows twinkling under the stars.
This is Hogwarts. Malfoy looked at the scene in front of him and was a little stunned. Different from the somewhat gloomy atmosphere of the Malfoy family's private manor, Hogwarts shows a sense of history. The ancient bricks and mottled stone walls all reflect the long history of the school.
No more than four people per boat! cried Hagrid, pointing to a line of boats moored on the shore.
Pancy! Malfoy saw Pansy in the crowd and couldn't help shouting. Better to go on a boat with Pansy than some strangers.
Humph! Pansy showed a dissatisfied look on her face when she saw Malfoy, and boarded another boat without looking back.
Where did I offend her again? Malfoy shook his head, still wondering why Pansy's attitude towards him had changed again.
Ask her later, Malfoy thought, stepping onto a small boat at will.
Are they all on board? cried Hagrid, who was in a boat by himself. That's good to move forward! A group of boats immediately sailed forward across the lake with waves as flat as a mirror. Everyone was silent, staring at the huge castle soaring into the sky. As they approached the cliff where the castle stood, the castle seemed to rise above them. Head down! Hagrid shouted as the first boats approached the cliff. All bowed their heads, and the boat carried them through the ivy curtain that covered the face of the cliff to the hidden open entrance. They followed what seemed to be a dark tunnel to the base of the castle, eventually reaching what looked like a subterranean pier, and then climbing up a ground of rubble and small pebbles.
Malfoy and a group of students disembarked one after another.
Thanks Merlin! Neville suddenly shouted with outstretched arms ecstatically, and Neville found his Ralph on an empty boat.
I think you've found your toad, Malfoy said, standing behind Neville.
Really, thank you so much. Neville stuttered a little with excitement, although there might be some in normal times.
Now that we've found it, let's go. Ma Erfu looked around again, but unfortunately he didn't see Pan Xi.
Under the light of the Hagrid's lamp, the freshmen climbed a tunnel in the rock and finally reached a flat, damp meadow in the shadow of the castle.
Climb up some stone steps,
Gathered in front of a huge oak door. Hagrid raised a huge fist and knocked three times on the castle gate.
The door opened immediately.
Thank you, Hagrid. A tall, dark-haired witch in an emerald green robe stood in front of the gate with a serious expression.
After that, Professor McGonagall first brought the freshmen to a small room. The room was very small. As soon as people rushed in, the already small room became even more crowded.
Welcome to Hogwarts, said Professor McGonagall. The opening feast is about to begin, but before you enter the dining room, you must first determine which house you are going to. Classification is a It's an important ceremony because the house is like your home at Hogwarts while you're at school. You're going to class with the rest of the house, living in the house's dorms together, and spending time in the house's common room together. After school time.
Later, Professor McGonagall introduced the four colleges, some matters of the branch and some rules of the school to the freshmen, such as the addition and deduction of points between the colleges, and the acquisition of the College Cup.
Harry and Ron were whispering, looking a little nervous. He thought he was going to take a test on magic, and Hermione kept reciting the spells she had learned.
In contrast, Malfoy was a little absent-minded. In his eyes, it was more important to find Pansy now to find out what was going on.
Found you. Malfoy glanced around and finally saw Pansy's figure. She was talking and laughing with a few girls next to her.
The space was so cramped that Malfoy could only squeeze through the crowd one step at a time.
Ladies, can you interrupt your conversation? Malfoy walked up to Pansy and said, I think my friend and I have some misunderstandings that need to be clarified. Are you willing to help me with this? Then Malfoy slightly owe owe, an impeccable etiquette.
Pancy, I'm looking for you, the little boyfriend is very handsome. We won't bother you. A few girls next to him joked, obviously not believing Malfoy's misunderstanding.
I have nothing to say to him. Pansy said coldly.
I'm really angry, so I need to coax him even more. The girl next to him continued to joke, and then walked to the other side, creating conditions for Malfoy and Pansy to be alone.
I guess at least I should know where I'm wrong first, don't I, Malfoy asked first.
Pan Xi thought about it for a while and then said, You don't know how to come to me in the car, do you know how boring I am in the car?
Uh... Malfoy was at a loss for words, obviously he really didn't think much of it.
Look, you obviously forgot about me. Seeing Malfoy's unnatural expression, Pansy apparently guessed the truth.
I also went to other carriages to find you. Pansy's voice suddenly became quieter, but it could still be heard.
By the way, maybe you hide from me because you think I'm annoying, otherwise I won't be able to find you. Pansy's voice suddenly became louder as if she had thought of something.
Look, the retribution of privilege is here. Malfoy groaned in pain, apparently Pansy only found the normal compartment. The special ones were obviously ignored by her.
Then it's my dad's fault. Malfoy threw the pot away quickly. Approaching Pansy's side, he said; It's all the position my father arranged for me, and I didn't know you would come to me. Malfoy explained.
Even if you didn't hide from me, you must have forgotten me. Pan Xi was reluctant to forgive.
Right! Malfoy seemed to have thought of something.
I was helping Neville find Toad, the one from the Longbottom family, Malfoy said. You know, my father always wanted me to get on well with other people, and the Longbottom family was pure blood. , I can't ignore him.
That little fat man is a bit silly, but is that toad more important than me? Pansy asked again.
That's a harder question to answer, Malfoy thought, his face even more embarrassing.
A moment of silence.
No way, I really can't bear it anymore. Pansy, who had a frosty face just now, suddenly laughed.
Huh? Malfoy clearly didn't understand what was going on. I saw that the girl who was with Pansy before was also giggling.
I knew for a long time that you, a nerd, couldn't have imagined so much. The expression just now was very funny, much more fun than usual.
At this time, Malfoy didn't know that he was being teased by Pansy and her friends.
It's always been that little gentleman's appearance, it looks fake, and now I finally have a different expression.
Pansy suddenly approached Malfoy and said, Last time I threatened you, you were so calm, but today you're still in a hurry. It seems that I'm still very important to you. I'm very happy. This is a reward for you. After all, Pansy stood on tiptoe and kissed Malfoy on the forehead.
The girl next to him roared. Pansy's face was also covered with red clouds.
This is really... Malfoy could only sigh that he had provoked a little witch, although it wasn't a bad feeling.
Please keep quiet while waiting! McGonagall seemed to notice the commotion here, said solemnly, and then left the room.
Ah! The girls who were laughing just now suddenly screamed, mixed with the voices of many boys.
Malfoy looked back, only to see twenty or so ghosts suddenly jumping out of the wall. These pearly white, translucent ghosts slid across the room, whispering.
Incorporeal, thinking, translucent, and visually non-aggressive. It seems that this kind of creature probably has these characteristics. Unlike everyone's terrified reaction, Malfoy observed it carefully, and quickly became aware of what appeared now. The Spectre summed up several characteristics. Perhaps this is the characteristic of a scholar.
Professor McGonagall is back. The ghosts drifted in a file through the opposite wall and disappeared. Now, in a single line, Professor McGonagall said to the first-year students, follow me.
Malfoy was about to leave when he realized that his sleeve was caught. I saw Pansy looking at him with tears in his eyes.
Stop pretending, I know I didn't scare you, and you have been to these places in my family before. Malfoy exposed Pansy mercilessly. Of course, the relationship between the two was not limited to Malfoy telling stories. Pansy, who was adventurous by nature, forced Malfoy to go to many secret rooms in the manor. Ghosts are naturally not uncommon. How can a family that has been passed down for so many years have few ghosts.
I was just saying that you were a little mean. It's the same again so soon, it's boring. Pansy pouted and returned to her normal expression, as if nothing had happened. Obviously not satisfied with Malfoy's reaction.
The two walked out of the room with the crowd and came to a luxurious restaurant.
The other classes in the academy were already sitting around four long tables, above which thousands of candles floating in the air illuminated the dining room. On four tables were gleaming gold plates and goblets. There is another long table on the upper table of the dining room, which is the seat of the teachers.
Professor McGonagall took the freshmen to the other side, lined up facing the seniors, with the teachers behind them. The candlelight flickered, and hundreds of faces stared at them like pale lanterns. Ghosts also shone dimly silver light among the students.
Malfoy looked up at the ceiling, only to see little stars twinkling in the velvety black ceiling.
It's hard to believe that there is a ceiling over there, and it's hard to believe that the roof of the restaurant is not open air
How can a spell be fixed within a certain range? Unlike the exclamations of others, Malfoy fell into deeper thinking.
Professor McGonagall gently placed a four-legged stool in front of the first-year students, and then placed a top wizard hat on the stool. The hat was patched, worn, and very dirty.
There was silence in the restaurant.
Then the hat twisted. The brim of the hat was split wide like a mouth - and the hat began to sing:
You may think I'm not pretty,
But don't judge people by their appearance.
If you can find a hat prettier than mine,
I can eat myself.
You can make your bowler hats black and shiny,
Keep your silk top hats sleek and crisp.
I'm the Hogwarts test hat,
Naturally, it is much taller than your hats.
any thoughts that are hidden in your mind,
Can't escape the golden eyes of the devil hat.
Put it on and try it out,
I will tell you which college you should go to.
You may belong to Gryffindor, where there is bravery buried deep inside,
Their daring, daring, and boldness make Gryffindors outstanding;
You may belong to Hufflepuff, where the people are upright and loyal,
Hufflepuff students are stoic and honest, not afraid of hard work;
If you're shrewd, you might get into wise old Ravenclaw,
Those who are wise and learned will always meet their fellows there;
Maybe you'll get into Slotlin, maybe you'll make true friends here,
But those cunning and insidious people will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
Come put me on! Don't be afraid! Don't panic!
In my hands (though I don't even have one) you're absolutely safe
Because I am a thinking hat!
After the hat finished singing, there was thunderous applause, and it bowed to the four tables one by one, then stood still.
At this point, Professor McGonagall took a few steps forward, holding a roll of parchment in her hand. Whoever name I call now will put on a hat, sit on a stool, and wait for the sorting. She said, Han Nayab!
A little girl with a ruddy face and two blond braids stumbled out of the queue and put on a hat that just covered her eyes. She sat down. A moment's pause - Hufflepuff! Hat shouted.
The people at the table to the right applauded Hannah and welcomed her to their table.
One by one, the freshmen stepped forward and put on their hats, accepting the decisions made by the Sorting Hat for them. Of course, this was not entirely correct. The Sorting Hat actually followed the wishes of their own hearts. The Sorting Hat can make its own suggestions, but if I insist on a certain house to death, the Sorting Hat will not go against my will.
For example, when Harry Potter was sorting, he always thought: Don't go to Slytherin, don't go to Slytherin. Although the Sorting Hat may prefer him to go to Slytherin, it still respects Harry's choice.
As for Neville, who may not seem to have any opinion, the Sorting Hat sees his inner qualities.
Obviously, the Sorting Hat is still very accurate. In the original world line, Neville showed the extraordinary courage of a Gryffindor.
Then Hermione and Neville were all assigned to Gryffindor one after another.
Draco Malfoy, said Professor McGonagall.
The soul is no longer a person, will the result change? Malfoy's heart was no longer as calm as it appeared at this time, but fell into thinking.
Malfoy slowly walked out of the queue while thinking, and put on the sorting hat.
And no longer like the original: As soon as the hat touched his head he screamed: Slytherin!
The Sorting Hat was lost in thought, and soon a voice came into Malfoy's ear.
Ravenclaw, absolutely Ravenclaw, I have never seen a child with such a strong appetite for knowledge in my long career. I think the knowledge you have now will allow you to graduate directly. Ravenclaw Crowe is a good fit for you, isn't it?
Oh, no! Malfoy felt the hat dangle over his head.
A deeply buried ambition, what a fiery ambition is hidden beneath the thirst for knowledge? Knowledge is only the means necessary to the end you pursue. Your end is not knowledge itself. After so many years, I almost saw it this time. Gone.
Slytherin! The Sorting Hat finally gave his answer.
Is this fate? Malfoy smiled, then walked to the Slytherin table and sat beside Pansy.
He didn't notice Hermione's complicated expressions in the crowd.
Ron is right, he is really a Slytherin, no, so what if he is really, can we judge him to be a villain? Hermione struggled in her heart, obviously what Malfoy said before. gave her a great touch.
To be honest, I thought you nerd was going to Ravenclaw, Pansy said.
Then my parents won't have to strip me alive, Malfoy said exaggeratedly.
That's really funny. Pansy seemed to think of that scene and couldn't help giggling.
Suddenly, a tidal wave of cheers resounded throughout the restaurant. The Weasley twins shouted, We have Potter! We have Potter!
It seems that our Savior classmate is really charming. Malfoy couldn't help sighing when he saw this.
It's just good luck. Pansy pouted, obviously dissatisfied that the so-called Savior went to the Lion House. In her eyes, this kind of glory should only appear in Slytherin.
With the last Bryce Sabini being sorted into Slytherin. Professor McGonagall rolled up the parchment, picked up the sorting hat, and left.
A tall, thin old man stood up.
Malfoy watched the old man silently in the crowd.
He has a long hooked nose that has been interrupted at least twice, wears half-moon glasses, a pair of sharp blue eyes, a long silver-white beard, and silver-white waist-length hair. This is the greatest wizard of our time - Dumbledore!
Dumbledore said, Welcome to Hogwarts for the new school year! Before the banquet begins, I want to say a few words. That is: Idiot! Crying nose! Scum! Screw! Thank you all! He reiterated Sit down. Everyone applauds and cheers.
Then all the students started to enjoy the food in front of them.
Who eats mints at dinner! Malfoy couldn't help but be speechless. Apparently Hogwarts has once again pushed the boundaries of British cuisine.
After a difficult end to the dinner, Malfoy heard various versions of the school anthems of the various academies. You can sing the school anthem with a variety of tunes if you want. The Weasley twins even used the Funeral March, with Dumbledore conducting the final bars for them with his wand.
Follow me the freshmen of Slytherin. After the party, the prefect will take the freshmen to their respective dormitories.
Following the prefect, the Slytherin freshmen descended many flights of stairs and finally came to the common room.
Behind an empty, damp stone wall is a long, narrow, low basement, with walls and ceiling of rough stone, with round, green-glowing lamps chained from the ceiling hang down.
The giant snake sculpture on the door hissed: Password?
Pure blood, replied the prefect. Then he said to the freshman behind: Remember this password, I don't want anyone sleeping in the aisle, of course I'm not worried that you will catch a cold, but if I think no one will be willing to let the college be deducted points.
Yes. The team answered neatly.
It seems that the bundle of honor can make a Slytherin obey more than an order. Malfoy thought silently.
Entering the room, Malfoy glanced at the fireplace here, and unconsciously compared it with the one at home, and came to a conclusion: It seems that there is a shortage of educational funds at Hogwarts.
Of course, this is just a joke.
Then nothing happened, Malfoy found his dormitory, set up the luggage he had brought, and went to bed. End of a day's trip.
The long-awaited college life is finally about to begin. This was Malfoy's last consciousness before bed.
