HP in the name of Slytherin

Chapter 17 Officially Certified Slytherin

The applause and discussion in the auditorium lasted for a long time, but the sorting was still going on. Catherine looked at the sorting hat. She originally planned to go up directly, but she didn't expect that the hat suddenly sang a song.

With an ancient melodious tune, the voice instantly overwhelmed everyone: "I will never hurt you, because I am a thinking magic hat. My old master told me thousands of years ago that I will meet you again in the future." Catherine Slytherin, your appearance has changed with time, but the brilliance of magic will always be with you. Slytherin gives you flesh, soul and life, Gryffindor gives you the courage to move forward, Ravenclaw blessings You are of great wisdom, and Hufflepuff wishes nothing but peace and justice for you. So dear Catherine, which house are you going to?"

During the song, the ghosts of Hogwarts appeared from all corners, and the oldest ghosts saluted her, including the always proud Slytherin ghost Bloody Barrow and the rarely seen Ravenclaw ghost. Ms. Grey.

If Catherine wasn't at the front and the sorting wasn't over yet, they looked like they would approach her immediately.

The Sorting Hat's singing ended, and an inappropriate voice came from Gryffindor: "This hat can actually sing seriously?"

Professor McGonagall immediately flew over with a glare, fearing that the situation would get out of control again.

But this is the first time in so many years that the Sorting Hat has sung such a normal song. With this kind of accent, the students will not secretly cover their ears every time.

Because of it and the unusual behavior of the ghosts, no one dares to doubt Catherine's identity now.

Under the spotlight, Catherine did not show any shyness, and said openly to the Sorting Hat winking at her: "I choose Slytherin."

It was said to the Sorting Hat, and also to Principal Dumbledore sitting behind the Sorting Hat.

The Sorting Hat immediately shouted: "Slytherin!"

Slytherin, who had become a little depressed because the heir of the Black family chose Gryffindor and a low-class half-blood joined the camp, rarely burst into warm applause.

"We have Slytherin!" the little wizard with Slytherin shouted happily.

This is the officially certified biological daughter of Salazar Slytherin. Who can match her influence in terms of blood relationship?

The dinner party hasn't even started yet, but many people have already planned to send letters home about this legendary event!

There were still young wizards waiting for sorting behind them. Catherine received the reply from the Sorting Hat and without wasting any time, she immediately walked towards the Slytherin table.

There was a sudden commotion in the new area where the position had been fixed, and the little wizards dispersed spontaneously, wanting to give her the central position.

This almost left the isolated Snape with nowhere to go.

Catherine just said "no need", as if she was too lazy to take a few more steps, and casually sat down diagonally across from Snape.

No one dared to come over and talk to Catherine immediately, and even the movement of changing positions stopped, because the long-awaited Bloody Barrow came to Catherine after she sat down, bowed and said hello to her: "Long time no see, Miss Catherine."

He was in his thirties, with blood stains all over his body, soaked in the aristocratic dress. His voice was cold and his eyes were hollow. He was doing very polite things, but he still couldn't conceal his gloominess.

Catherine actually didn't remember who he was, but fortunately she had read "Hogwarts: A History of the School". She smiled and greeted the thin ghost: "Hello, Mr. Barrow."

"I have forgotten many things in the past, but your father and my teacher, I always remember him," Barrow tried to make his voice lively, "I was also the head of Slytherin House... Before you After my father...well, it's nice to meet you again now, I mean, if you need anything, you can call me."

The lively atmosphere was not very successful, Barrow's cold face became more gloomy, Catherine accepted his favor and thanked him warmly.

Barrow raised his eyes and quickly glanced at Ms. Gray on the other side of Catherine, and said with a stiff face, "Then I will take my leave now. I wish you a pleasant meal later."

"Okay." As soon as Catherine finished speaking, Barrow disappeared.

The book said that he was a very rare ghost that could become invisible. It was indeed true. It was impossible to tell whether he had left or not.

Ms. Gray on the other side of Catherine probably couldn't tell. She frowned. After a moment of silence, she leaned over and said in Catherine's ear, "Welcome back, Catherine. I am Helena, Helena Ravenclaw. If If you need anything, you can find me in the courtyard above Ravenclaw Tower."

After saying that, her tall figure also disappeared.

When the two ghosts spoke one after another, the sorting on the stage was completely over. Principal Dumbledore's speech was very brief, and Catherine only had time to hear him announce the start of the dinner.

As his words fell, Catherine noticed a wave of ancient magic power, and then a large amount of food appeared instantly, filling all the long tables in the hall.

【Owner! ! ! 】Where there is a lot of food, Haierbo is naturally indispensable.

There was only one and a half of the little basilisk's candy bar left when Catherine sat down. It licked it hard and slowly, but to no avail. The moment the aroma of the food spread, it couldn't help but swallow the whole piece in one bite.

Catherine looked around the long Slytherin table, ignoring the glances that seemed to fall on her, and said to Helbo: ​​[Get bigger, Helbo, until it is as thick as my wrist. 】

She used Parseltongue to talk to Haierbo, and her hoarse voice immediately attracted the attention of the little wizard opposite.

Since Slytherin now rejects mixed-bloods, Snape was pushed to the front of the long table when everyone moved seats for Catherine. There was no one next to him. The opposite side was occupied by Bloody Barro just now, diagonally opposite to Catherine, and on the other side of Catherine. That was Ms. Grey.

Now that both ghosts have disappeared, there is a large vacuum zone here between Catherine and Snape.

So by coincidence, Haierbo met Snape as soon as he appeared.

In the eyes of the little basilisk, there was no human being that the owner would not allow him to eat. It bit the chicken leg in front of Catherine and swallowed it with two clicks.

It wasn't until Halbo ate the second chicken drumstick that the little Slytherin wizards next to him realized what was happening on the table.

"Don't go there, Helpo," Catherine stopped Helpo who wanted to go over to eat the mutton chops, and got one for him, "Just eat one, you can only eat what's in front of me." 】

"Don't pass by" was still a human word, followed by hissing snake language.

The little wizard next to Catherine was considered a pure-blood, but his family background was very ordinary. After a series of levels, he was better than the half-blood Snape. At this moment, he saw a snake crawling up. The snake looked very strange. He was so frightened that he fell down.

"Wingardium Leviosa." Catherine chose to use wandless magic to prevent this unlucky little guy from falling into the hospital wing without even eating a few bites of dinner.

"Why, how come there are snakes?" The little wizard cried with a sad face, struggled to get up, and at the same time moved a little away from Catherine.

The little wizard opposite him said with a cry: "This, this is not a snake, it is a basilisk!"

As he spoke, he covered his eyes with his greasy hands.

Because it is said that anyone who sees the eyes of the basilisk will die immediately.

"Don't worry, this is a pet snake allowed by the school. Although it is also a basilisk, it will not harm the students." Catherine comforted her gently.

The voice was gentle, but he just didn't take it back.

With the appearance of Haierbo, all the little wizards who peeked at Catherine and secretly wanted to come up to talk became more honest.

Although the hybrid opposite Catherine was safe and sound, the basilisk was a basilisk after all, and who knew when it might explode and hurt someone.

Snape was also worried, but he had looked at Halbo when he first appeared. At least judging from the fact that he was still alive, this basilisk was indeed different from the basilisk species mentioned in the book.

I just don’t know what the feathers and black gems on its head do, or whether its saliva counts as venom, and whether it can be used to brew potions instead of the basilisk’s venom...

Well, this was not mentioned at all in the potions book Snape had read.

Between this outrageous basilisk and the owner of an even more outrageous basilisk, the hybrid is basically invisible.

"Mr. Snape, can I feed Helbo the remaining food here? Don't worry, he won't touch your food."

One of the great things about sitting in this awkward vacuum is that all the food in this area is divided between the two of them!

Snape looked at the smiling Catherine and accepted Miss Slytherin's kindness, "As you wish."
