Science students at Hogwarts

The train got slower and slower, and finally stopped.Passengers pushed and shoved until they arrived at a dark and small platform.

As soon as Elios got out of the car, he saw Pansy waving to them.They said goodbye to Justin and walked towards Pansy and the others.

"I want to go to your private room to play, but Theodore said you have guests." Pansy hurriedly came over and asked curiously, "Are those the students receiving financial aid this year? They don't look like anything special."

Elios looked at the little girl with short black ear-length hair in front of him and thought to himself: I'm afraid this is the only person here who doesn't know anything.

He took out a handful of candies and handed them to Pansy, and told a few interesting things that had just happened to make the little girl laugh.

The atmosphere on the sidelines was not so relaxed.Draco folded his arms, with a slight mockery on his face, and said softly: "Theodore, it's been a long time since you came to see us."

Theodore was calm as usual, "I want to preview the textbook before school starts."

Goyle and Crabbe stood not far away, saying nothing.

"First-year students! First-year students are here!" A loud voice broke the turbulent atmosphere.

It was a giant bearded man holding a lantern and shouting, "Come on, first-years, follow me!"

Pansy wrinkled her nose in disgust, "He looks so savage." Then she turned around and shouted impatiently at Goyle and Crabbe: "How long are you two going to stand there stupidly? We have to leave. .”

After passing through a steep and narrow path, a black lake appeared in front of us.On the high hillside on the other side of the lake stands a tall castle that reaches into the sky, with windows twinkling under the stars.

"Come on board, no more than four people in each boat."

Dozens of small boats rowed across the mirror-flat lake. Everyone was silent, and the starlight in the sky gently shone on everyone.

When they arrived at the small room in front of the auditorium, Professor McGonagall told them that the sorting ceremony was about to take place, and asked everyone to tidy up before leaving the room.

"I heard Fred say the Sorting Ceremony hurt us a lot. But I think he was joking."

"Is that so?" Justin stood aside at some point and looked at Elios anxiously.

Elios smiled and calmed him gently: "I think it's just a small test. No matter what happens, Hogwarts will not kick us out."

"Tsk" a chuckle suddenly sounded.

"What are you laughing at?" Draco looked at him dissatisfied.

"The noble pure-blood family also started to mix with Muggles?" The red-haired boy glanced at Justin first, and then mocked in that slow tone.

"You don't need to tell me, I know who you are. My father said that the Weasley family all have red hair, and..."

Elios interrupted Draco, "Mr. Weasley, I heard that your brother is going to Romania to raise dragons. A kid who has just graduated is going to be so far away from home. You must be worried, right?"

He spoke in a gentle tone, "It just so happens that the Black family has a good relationship with the McFasty family. I can introduce him to a dragon farm in Scotland."

Pansy heard the subtext of Elios, and she immediately smiled and continued: "Yes, Weasley, Scotland is much better than Romania, and Elios is kind enough to help your brother."

Ron's face turned red and he shouted: "You don't need to be so kind!"

Draco glanced at him contemptuously, ignored him and said to the young wizard: "The Malfoy and Black families provide jobs for many marrow wizards every year, and we welcome every wizard."

Pansy had always known that they had a good attitude towards marrow wizards, but he didn't expect that he would say it in front of so many people.

She has always been educated in purebloodism, but she obviously cares more about her friends than pureblood supremacy.She looked at the two brothers worriedly, and then glanced at the pure-blood families, fearing that they would cause trouble.

Theodore just sneered, while the others remained silent.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and more than 20 translucent ghosts popped out from the wall behind them. Several young wizards screamed. Fortunately, Professor McGonagall came back soon, and she announced that the sorting ceremony would begin immediately.

"Whoever's name I call now will put on his hat and sit on the stool to wait for the sorting." Professor McGonagall said, holding a piece of parchment.

"Hannah Abbott!"

A little girl with a rosy complexion and two golden braids stumbled out of the queue and put on her hat.

"Hufflepuffs!"

Next was Elrios. Not surprisingly, he was sorted into Slytherin. He sat down at the Slytherin long table and waited boredly for food.

With the last new student being sorted into Slytherin, the sorting ceremony finally came to an end.

"Welcome to Hogwarts!" Dumbledore stood up, looked at the students with a smile on his face, and opened his arms, "I only have two words to say, eat!"

The food at Hogwarts was indeed good, but not as delicious as Kreacher's. Elios began to miss the elf.

With the plates clean again, the feast came to an end.

Dumbledore stood up again. He looked at everyone with a smile and said, "Now that everyone is full, I want to make a few announcements."

"Attention first-year students, no students are allowed to enter the forest area of ​​the school forest farm. Some of our senior students should also pay attention to this..."

Elios drowsily listened to Dumbledore's fishing speech, and glanced at Professor Quirrell, thinking: Socket, oh socket, there is a way to heaven if you don't take it, and there is no door to hell if you come by yourself, come on. You have to give the savior a good sparring session.

"In addition, I have two more things to announce."

Elios sat up straight, ready to witness this historic moment, but why were they two different things?

"First of all, Professor Snape and his team received the Order of Merlin, First Class this year in recognition of their outstanding contribution to the identification of potions. Now all members of this team are in Hogwarts. They are Sif Professor Les Snape, Assistant Professor George Black and—"

Dumbledore drawled his voice and looked at the Slytherin table. Discussions arose in the auditorium.

"And our little snakes Elios Black and Draco Malfoy."

"This must be another pure-blood family's trick. Who believes that such a young child can understand potions." Ron muttered to others, and many people nodded in agreement.

"Silence!" Dumbledore said seriously, "Their contribution has been strictly reviewed and the Ministry of Magic can confirm it. The Ministry of Magic will send someone to conduct the investiture ceremony in a week. Now let us congratulate them!"

Slytherin burst into astonishing cheers, and Draco raised his head slightly reservedly, nodding to those who came to congratulate him.

Only then did Elios think that before getting in the car, Lucius said he wanted to give them a school gift. He didn't expect it to be such a surprise.

Their family members knew about their own affairs, and the professor was afraid that something might happen to them, so he usually just let them watch from the sidelines. Therefore, they basically did not do much except in the early stages. Unexpectedly, Snape also applied for medals for them in the name of the team.

He looked at the professors on the teacher's bench. The professors clapped gently and looked at them gently. He secretly made up his mind: he had to work harder to be worthy of this honor. He hoped that next time he would win the Medal of Merlin independently!

"Let's announce the second thing. Hogwarts will cancel the Quidditch competition between different houses!" Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Why?!" The louder voice almost overturned the ceiling of the auditorium.

"Quiet!" Dumbledore had to reiterate again, "I believe many students have received a notice that Hogwarts will exchange students with Durmstrang for friendly academic exchanges this school year. The two schools will Each Quidditch team was fielded for the match. So, the teams were reduced to two."

He ignored the comments from the students below and said, "Students who are applying for exchange students, please go to the offices of the deans of each college. I guarantee you will have a lot of fun."

"By the way, exchange students are limited to grades three to five. The OWL for fifth grade students will be held in Durmstrang. I hope everyone will consider it carefully." Some sixth grade students protested angrily.

"At the same time, this year is the 1th anniversary of the first rugby match that Angus participated in. The England rugby match was held between various colleges." His eyes glanced at all the teachers and students, a pair of blue eyes shining with meaning.

"The exchange students will go to Durmstrang on September [-]th, and the same goes for Durmstrang students. I believe that you will be warm and friendly to these foreign guests during their stay here, exchange students It can also show the style of Hogwarts students in a foreign country. Okay, it’s getting late now, and it’s important for you to walk into class tomorrow with a fresh mind and a clear mind. Go to bed! Hurry!”

The students were led by their prefects back to the lounges of different houses.

The little snakes were talking in the lounge, and the prefect simply joined the discussion after several attempts to drive them away had no effect.

Pansy said to Elios with some envy: "Thanks to you today, Slytherin can win back a favor." She was very proud, "So what if Gryffindor has Potter? We have the best Young Medal of Merlin recipient.”

Seeing that her allies were going the opposite direction from Dumbledore's efforts to unite the four academies, Elios had to remind her.

"This honor belongs to Hogwarts. Whenever the youngest recipients of the Order of Merlin are mentioned, they will be said to be from Hogwarts! Then there is Slytherin, Pansy, and the exchange students are coming soon. We are going to Always uphold the honor of Hogwarts."

Pansy looked at him with admiration, "Yes, only Slytherin can defend this honor."

What he just said was in vain, and Elios was speechless.

The Parkinson family fully protects their friends, even if they violate their principles. They are very mean and mean to those they despise, and they are always looking for trouble.

That's exactly what happened to Pansy.

Most pure-blood families start considering marriage partners around the age of ten. The little girl still firmly believes that the brothers are her best friends, and her protection and care are all out of pure friendship.

Elios cherishes this friendship very much, and he also tries his best to help the Parkinson family, but the old Parkinson is almost the same as Pansy, and their slowness often makes Elios feel tired.

This time Elios felt the same suffocation again.He said nothing more, saying that he was tired and planned to go back and rest first.

Slytherin's dormitories are all two-person rooms with private bathrooms.The two brothers were naturally assigned together.

After cleaning up briefly, they took out the double-sided mirror they bought from Diagon Alley, or the upgraded version of the double-sided mirror, the polygonal mirror. Elios still remembers the scene at that time.

"This multi-faceted mirror is the masterpiece of the most famous alchemist in France. There are five of them, just one for each member of your family. Just read the number and you can communicate at any time. It is 20.00% smaller than the original model, which is more convenient. carry."

At that time, Narcissa was a little moved. When the saleswoman said, "Buy now and enjoy a [-]% discount," "Exclusive customized patterns show nobility," and "Free seven-year warranty to spend years together," the family fell into a consumption trap. , purchased a set.

Lucius obviously still had some unfinished ideas, and he took them for a walk for half a street, allowing Elios to realize what a true overlord was.

Elios is still immersed in his uncle's "Tianliang Wang Po" style of domination, and Draco has already contacted his parents.

After expressing that he had arrived at school, had dinner, everything was getting used to, and that everything was fine so far, he brought his younger brother into the picture. Elios told them that he was very happy to have won the Order of Merlin, and after a few brief greetings, Narcissa urged him to go to bed. .

Principal's office

Dumbledore asked the Sorting Hat cheerfully, "What's new this year?"

Unexpectedly, the Sorting Hat really gave him big news, "Dumbledore, there is a little Slytherin who knows the whereabouts of the Horcruxes."

Dumbledore's eyes became dangerous and sharp as he waited for the Sorting Hat's next words.

"He told me that there are more than a dozen Horcruxes. Some are Slytherin heritage, some are old things from that person's student days, some are priceless jewelry and works of art, and some are just ordinary gold galleons. They hide them in Gringotts, Hogwarts, Bermuda, the man's home, the pyramids, hundreds of locations."

Dumbledore relaxed slightly, "You still don't know what happened recently. Hundreds of dark wizards are frantically searching for that person's treasure. The source of the information is actually a child. It sounds really ridiculous."

"What if he is telling the truth or happens to be right?"

"I have deployed people at all the places where stolen goods are sold, and Malfoy also contributed a little, and asked the Ministry of Magic of various countries to keep an eye on the smuggling case. Whenever they want to sell that person's inheritance, they will be noticed."

"Of course, I prefer that the Death Eaters leave their own Horcruxes to resurrect that person. In that case, Severus can be of great help. I wish them good luck, that person's legacy often costs his life."

"Compared to these, what kind of people are Malfoy and Black?"

"Well, typical Slytherin, not much to say." The hat twirled.

"But they all have some weird fantasies. Black hopes that everyone will live on different planets, and he keeps traveling to other planets. Malfoy is even weirder. He thinks that if he is a cat, he will definitely be able to catch mice. Beat it up."

Dumbledore was stunned. He laughed, then took off his glasses and wiped his eyes. He lowered his head and said nothing for a while.
