Hogwarts Melting Ice Journey

After passing a few more people, we finally arrived at Stephen. He stepped forward and placed the Sorting Hat on his head.

"Your brother must be Jacob Tony." The Sorting Hat began to ramble. "Like him, you make it difficult for me to see what you are thinking. It makes the Hat worry me so much, for fear of sorting you into the wrong place." .”

"Can't see clearly" Stephen asked curiously.

"Yes, it's like there is a blank space in the brain that cannot be detected at all. I have not seen many people like you over the years. However, I can see knowledge in you, um, and the ability to solve questions. .”

The Sorting Hat continued its babble: "It's really strange why your mind is filled with five-year college entrance examinations, three-year simulations, Golden Sun simulation papers, and introduction to systems methods papers. Oh, and a lot of Muggle laws, It's still from the East. Why are all these weird things in your mind? What are Wusan and Golden Sun? Are they new O.W.L. review materials?"

"Maybe, I don't know." Stephen obviously didn't expect that the Sorting Hat didn't know his identity as a time traveler, but that's good. "I think the pile of laws in my mind are the work of my father. He gives me advice every day. I say these things.”

"Oh, no wonder, but why would an Englishman study Eastern law?"

"His hobby."

...Omit the nonsense of the two people chatting in the middle, if hats count as people.

One person and one hat were chatting like this, but the people below obviously didn't expect that the sorting hat would take so long this time. They were still waiting for dinner.

Dumbledore smiled, as if looking at Stephen or the Sorting Hat. He seemed to be very interested in what they were talking about.

"I suggest you hurry up, or I will throw you into that dusty cabinet again." Professor McGonagall couldn't wait any longer and threatened.

"Oh, well, well, since it's filled with strange knowledge and someone who makes me feel strange, I think Ravenclaw is a good fit for you."

The Sorting Hat finished chattering and shouted: "Ravenclaw" Stephen walked to the long table of Ravenclaw. Rowan clapped his hands happily, not expecting that the two of them would actually be assigned to the same academy.

There weren't many people left after Stephen, and it didn't take as long as he did, and it was all over quickly.

Albus Dumbledore stood up.He looked at the students with a smile on his face, and stretched out his arms to them. Nothing seemed to make him happier than seeing the students gathered together.

"Welcome," he said, "Welcome to Hogwarts to start the new school year. Before the banquet begins, I would like to say a few words. That is: Idiots cry and the residue is screwed. Thank you all." He sat down again. Everyone applauded and cheered.

Dumbledore waved his hand again, and a wealth of food appeared on the long table: roast beef, roast chicken, pork chops, lamb chops, sausages, steaks, boiled potatoes, baked potatoes, potato chips, Yorkshire pudding, pea shoots, carrots , gravy, tomato sauce, basically all the British dishes that can be made are available; of course, there are also the essential mint hard candies.

After enjoying the dinner, we went through the indispensable part of singing the school song. The prefects took the freshmen of their respective colleges back to the common room of their respective colleges.

Ravenclaw's prefect of boys is Chester Shafiq, while prefect of girls is Mikel Lindsay, both fifth-year students.

"Follow me, little eagles. Our emblem is a raven, and the representative colors of the house are sky blue and bronze. The Ravenclaw common room is located at the top of the Ravenclaw Tower, hidden behind a magical door. Behind the door with the knocker. If you want to enter the academy, you must first answer the question of the eagle-shaped knocker, which I think you will see later." Mikel led the new students while introducing Ravenclaw to them.

"The ghost of our college is Ms. Helena. She did not appear in the hall today because she does not like too lively environments, but you should see her when you enter the common room. As for our dean, he is Filius Professor Flitwick..."

As he spoke, the prefect led the eaglets to the common room. The eagle-shaped door knocker opened the door and asked today's question: "What are the rules of time?"

The freshmen were dumbfounded. They did not expect such a problem to arise, while the two prefects were lost in thought.

"Rowan, do you know?" Stephen asked Rowan in a low voice. In his opinion, Rowan had read a lot of books and might know the answer.

"Well, let me think about it, even the Muggle books didn't mention this. Wizards can only explore ways to use time." Rowan put his chin on his hand as if thinking. It seemed that this question also made him think. I feel embarrassed.

Stephen remembered what the old man said in his previous dream, thought about it, and stepped forward: "There is no end to time. The general direction of time will always remain the same, but small changes are allowed."

"Barely," the eagle-shaped door knocker said, and at the same time the door opened.

The freshmen looked at Stephen with grateful eyes. They almost thought they had to sleep outside today and hurried into the common room, fearing that they would be blocked by the knocker again.

"Stephen, how did you come up with this answer?" Rowan followed Stephen closely.

"Because of some previous experiences, this sentence was told to me by an old man."

"Oh, that's it. Does experience affect the application of knowledge? It seems that I still lack a lot."

Entering the lounge, one is greeted by arched windows and walls draped in blue and bronze silks. Stars are painted on the dome ceiling, and the dark blue carpet below is also dotted with stars. The floor was lined with tables, chairs and bookshelves.

A white marble statue of Rowena Ravenclaw stands in an alcove opposite the door to the dormitories.

The two of them originally wanted to go back to the dormitory directly. After all, they had done a lot today and they needed to take a good rest and calm down their excited emotions.

But unfortunately, it would inevitably backfire, and Stephen was stopped by Chester.

"Listen, Stephen. You'd better pay attention to your behavior and don't look for some cursed treasure trove like your brother. I don't want the college to lose points because of you." Chester warned Stephen a few words, and then left.

"Stephen, don't pay too much attention to what Chester said. He just cares about the college." Mikel came over to comfort Stephen, "You guys go back and rest quickly."

"Stephen, what is the cursed treasure house that Chester said?" Rowan was very curious because he didn't know there was such a secret place in Hogwarts.

Stephen shook his head: "I don't know, my brother has never mentioned it to me. I think we should go to bed early. The first period tomorrow morning is Potions class."

After a while, it was time to go to bed. Stephen lay in bed thinking about Jacob.

"When Jacob said that he wanted me to complete some of the work for him, could he be referring to the cursed treasure house?" Stephen felt as if he had been involved in something big, but he also felt that he had vaguely grasped some clues.

"Aspenwood, a Death Eater, very accomplished in Charms, treasure house of curses...and this pocket watch." He took out the pocket watch from the lining of his robe and looked at it, "Maybe he is really a second generation Snape."

After thinking about it, Stephen fell asleep. Staying up late is just a small thing for the soul of a college student, but the problem is that he is still an eleven-year-old child now, and he is really powerless.

And when he fell asleep, the pocket watch in his hand showed a pattern of snowflakes.
