The fleet rowed across the mirror-flat lake, carrying the little wizards through the ivy tent covering the front of the cliff, all the way down a dark tunnel, and finally arrived at a place similar to an underground dock.

Everyone got off the boat, and Neville also found his lost toad.

Hagrid continued to lead the way with the lantern, but this time he did the opposite and started to climb up.

Fish was too lazy to waste his energy. He rolled onto Hagrid's shoulders again and swayed his calves comfortably.

"Why can he ride on that stupid big guy, but I need to go on my own."

Draco Malfoy muttered unhappily, even with the help of Goyle and Crabbe, the journey still made him a little embarrassed.

Fish, who had sharp ears, heard Malfoy's complaints. He turned to look at the light-blond haired boy and remembered Minerva's instructions to him...

Get along well with other little wizards.

So Fish moved his buttocks and turned his body around.

He sat down on Hagrid's shoulders and waved his arms towards Malfoy, "Hey! Do you want to sit on it too?"

Malfoy, who was suddenly called by Fish, was stunned for a moment. He felt the strange looks from around him, and his pale cheeks couldn't help but turn red.

"No, no need."

Malfoy waved his hands quickly, then lowered his head proactively.

"Are you okay? Malfoy."

Crabbe asked with some worry. As one of Malfoy's followers, it was the first time for Crabbe to see him looking so talkative.

Although Crabbe himself had an inexplicable affection for the little boy, with his limited IQ, he could not figure out the relationship between the two.

"What can I do?"

Facing his follower, Malfoy immediately returned to his original behavior. He raised his head proudly and pointed his nostrils at Crabbe.

In fact, Malfoy himself was a little puzzled. Originally, he wanted to mock the little wizard, but he didn't know why the words came to his lips, but he couldn't say them out, and then he was fooled by it inexplicably.

However, before Malfoy could recover, the freshmen, led by Hagrid, had arrived at a huge oak door.

"Is everyone here? Look, is your toad still there?"

Hagrid checked the number of people one last time and paid attention to Neville's toad. Then he raised his huge fist and knocked on the castle door three times.

The door in front of them opened immediately, and a tall witch wearing emerald green robes stood behind the door. Her black hair was pulled up high. Her expression was serious, which made the already nervous little wizards even more nervous.

Just then, a voice broke the tense atmosphere.

"Minerva! I'm hungry. When can I get some food?"

Fish, who was sitting on Hagrid's shoulder, looked relaxed. After he saw Professor McGonagall, he immediately waved his arms excitedly and shouted to her.

Professor McGonagall looked at Fish, who was sitting on Hagrid's shoulder. Her original serious expression immediately softened, but the words in her mouth were still harsh.

"Get off Hagrid! Also, call me Professor McGonagall in school."

"Okay, Minerva, no problem, Minerva."

Fish jumped off Hagrid's shoulder and replied with a smile.

Professor McGonagall did not continue talking to Fish. She nodded to Hagrid, "Thank you, Hagrid. Leave it to me to pick you up when you get here."

A group of young wizards followed Professor McGonagall into the castle gate, and they all consciously kept a short distance from her.

Only the restless Fish ran to Professor McGonagall and reached out to pull her sleeve, but Professor McGonagall hit him on the head with a backhand.

"Get back to the team."

The corners of Professor McGonagall's mouth moved slightly, and she whispered instructions to Fei Xu.

"Oh--"

Fish covered his head with both hands, pouted and returned to the crowd. His aggrieved expression caused the little witches to exclaim "so cute" and "I really want to hug him".

Even among the boys, Harry vaguely heard similar sighs.

Professor McGonagall brought the first-year students into a small empty room, and then briefly mentioned the sorting ceremony that would be held later and the four houses of Hogwarts.

"What about dinner?"

It didn't matter what the sorting ceremony was, Fish's focus was still on food.

"After the sorting ceremony is over, dinner will naturally be arranged for you."

Professor McGonagall glared at Fish, but still answered his question seriously.

Without the temptation of food, it is wishful thinking to let this kid Fei Xu stay here peacefully.

"I will pick you up when the other side is ready." Professor McGonagall looked at Fish with a warning look, "Please keep quiet while waiting."

After saying that, Professor McGonagall left the room, and a group of young wizards immediately started whispering to each other.

What they talked about most, apart from the sorting ceremony, was Fish, a student who was obviously very special. Harry Potter, the famous savior, had scars hidden by his hair, so only a limited number of people knew that he was there. several.

After Professor McGonagall left, Fish ran to the door as if no one else was around and looked out through the crack in the door.

"Do you know what happened to him?"

After chatting with Ron about the Sorting Ceremony and making himself even more nervous, Harry thought it would be better to change the topic to ease his mood.

"I don't know. He is probably the child of Professor McGonagall just now?"

Ron shook his head and made a guess that everyone could see at a glance.

"Minerva McGonagall, head of Gryffindor House, master of transfiguration, one of the seven Animagus in this century, she has no children."

Hermione Granger, who was still reciting the spell quietly, suddenly interrupted.

"I saw an introduction about her in "Important Magical Events of the Twentieth Century"."

"That's a nephew or something." Ron's cheeks twitched twice, as if he felt a little embarrassed that his knowledge was not as good as that of a witch from a Muggle family. He interrupted impatiently: "That's not the point at all."

"Excuse me...what is an Animagus?"

Before Ron and Hermione could argue, Harry raised his question.

"Animagus is a very, very difficult magic," Hermione seemed particularly excited when mentioning this. "This spell can turn a wizard into an animal that is most suitable for him. It usually takes several years. Become an Animagus. Since the 20th century, there have only been seven Animagus registered with the Ministry of Magic!"

Hermione's words were full of admiration for Professor McGonagall.

"It should be eight now." Ron disliked Hermione's "good student" attitude very much, which reminded him of his outstanding brothers, so he choked out without hesitation, "I remember Two or three years ago, the Daily Prophet published a piece of news saying that a natural Animagus had been discovered."

And very coincidentally, not far away, Draco Malfoy also talked about this matter.

"I think I know who he is," Malfoy said to the people around him in his slow tone: "He is the little wizard adopted by Minerva McGonagall a few years ago, a natural born wizard. Nemagus.”
