dumb wizard

September [-]st.

Hugh White got up early, earlier than usual.After running in the morning, taking a shower, and eating breakfast, he began to count the items he was going to bring to Hogwarts. He had packed them up a few days ago.

The Chinese restaurant where Xiu works has opened several branches because of his existence. Later, he seldom cooks himself, and only occasionally goes to the restaurant to guide other chefs.

Not long after he decided to go to Hogwarts, he resigned from his boss on the grounds that he was going to a fully enclosed school, and although his boss was reluctant, he could do nothing about it.

After confirming that everything was in place, Xiu walked out of the house with his luggage and hailed a taxi to King's Cross Station.

He came early and there were not many people at the station.Seeing that there was no one there, he followed Snape's instructions through the ticket gates of platforms nine and ten and entered platform nine and three-quarters.

A crimson steam train was parked beside the platform, and there were only a few little wizards and their parents on the platform.

Xiu dragged his luggage onto the train, and there were still a lot of empty compartments, so he chose a compartment at the rear of the train, and barely put the suitcase on the pedal.

Depressed by his height again for two seconds, Xiu took out the coffee osmanthus cake wrapped in a cloth and put it on the table, then opened "Hogwarts, a School History" and read it.

On the second day after returning from Diagon Alley, Xiu found this book and several other basic books that were not in the book list from the pile of books, and couldn't help but be moved by Snape's thoughtfulness.

He has read all the textbooks several times these days, and his photographic memory has completely imprinted all the contents in his mind.It's a pity that all the magic mentioned in the book requires reciting spells, and he has no concept of silent magic. He has tried several times and failed, so so far he only has theoretical knowledge.

As time went on, the Hogwarts Express became buzzing.

The laughter and shouts of the little wizards, the sounds of various pets and the sound of bumping into something, the aisle was extremely crowded.

The carriage where Xiu was in was at the back, and no one opened the door of the carriage until it was about to depart, and three heads poked in, which startled him.

"I'm sorry, may I ask..." He was interrupted just after he said a few words.

"Oh! What a sweet boy! What if," said a cheerful voice, in a strange tune.

"Can you, if you don't mind," said another voice, whose hair was the same insane fiery red as the other man's, and whose face had been carved out of the same mold.

"Let's share this cubicle with you, you know,"

"We came too late!"

Xiu immediately recognized them as the famous Gryffindor twins, who are involved in more than 90.00% of Hogwarts' pranks, but few people can really hate them.

Xiu smiled at them, indicating that they had no problem.

Three boys squeezed in and put their luggage away quickly.

"Lovely boy, I think you must be,"

"Freshmen at Hogwarts, otherwise,"

"Beautiful child like you, we,"

“Absolutely impressed!”

The twins sang in unison, "Hi, I'm George Weasley and this is my twin brother,"

"Fred Weasley, it has been a great pleasure meeting you, did you?"

"Is it an honor to know your name?"

Xiu nodded, and under their puzzled gazes, he took out the pen and paper that never left him, and wrote: "Hi, I'm Xiu White, please forgive me for not being able to talk to you, I can't speak."

The three of them looked at the notebook in turn, all with surprise in their eyes.

"Oh! How unfair Merlin is! He,"

"To deprive such a lovely child of the right to speak, we shall,"

"Curse him sparingly, Merlin's,"

"Stinky socks that haven't been washed for 1 years!" Fred concluded with an exclamation.

Xiu smiled happily, the twins are really cute.

At this time, the tall boy next to him who only said two words when he opened the door introduced himself with a hearty smile, "Hi, White, I'm Lee Jordan."

Hugh nodded at him, Gryffindor's Quidditch docent, his explanations were always so crazy, it was hard not to be impressed.

Xiu bowed his head and wrote in his notebook: "Nice to meet you, you can call me Xiu."

George grinned and said, "We're happy too, Xiu, you can call us by our Christian names."

"I'm Muggle-born, maybe you guys would like to tell me about Hogwarts?" wrote Hugh.

Li Fei nodded quickly, "Of course. Xiu, Hogwarts is the cradle of most British wizards. You know, it has existed for thousands of years."

……

The time passed quickly in the pleasant conversation, during which Xiu invited them to share his coffee flower cake. The three boys thought it was delicious and expressed their great gratitude when Xiu wrote that it was his craft. wonder and admiration.

The sky was getting dark, and the four of them changed into robes under Xiu's reminder.

The train slowed down, "The train will arrive at Hogwarts in 5 minutes, please leave your luggage on the train, and the house elf will send you to school for you." A gloomy voice came from the train reverberate.

The train finally stopped, Xiu heard the noise outside and the occasional curse, and sat still in place.The other three boys did not rush out first as usual but stayed with Xiu, they thought they had to take care of this boy.

The four of them finally got off the train, the platform was small and dark, and it was very cold at night, Xiu thanked himself for adding a sweater.

A lamp was shaking in the dark night, and Xiu heard a loud and rude voice shouting: "First-year freshmen! First-year freshmen!" He followed the voice and looked over, and there was an unusually tall half-giant with a beard not far away. waving.

Rubeus Hagrid.

Xiu smiled at his new friends, and his friends gave some instructions in a cheerful tone, and then they separated.Non-fresh students will travel to Hogwarts Castle in a carriage pulled by Thestrals.

Xiu Jia walked bumpily among the crowd, the road was very steep, and he bumped into raised stones on the ground from time to time.

Turning a corner, all eyes were blank, and at the end of the path, a black lake suddenly opened up. On the hillside opposite the lake stood a majestic and majestic castle. There were many spiers on the castle, and the windows reflected light.

Xiu heard the surprise and exclamation of many people around him.

Hagrid pointed to a row of small boats moored on the shore of the lake and yelled, "No more than four people in each boat!"

Xiu boarded an empty boat, and was soon joined by three other young wizards, who obviously knew each other and chatted happily.Some of them tried to talk to Xiu, but Xiu ignored them.

Except for some characters in the original book that he doesn't dislike or even like, Xiu doesn't want to have too much interaction with other people, not to mention that he can't speak, and he can't respond in this darkness.

Xiu heard the girl among the three little wizards complaining about her indifference to the other two, "Damn guy! No manners!"

Xiu smiled slightly in the darkness.

After disembarking, they climbed a flight of steps to a huge oaken door.Hagrid knocked hard on the door three times with his huge fist and said, "Is everything here?"

The door opened, and a black-haired witch in an emerald green robe came out. She was tall and had a very serious expression. She looked like a powerful character.

Without a doubt, Minerva McGonagall.

Hugh White thought.

Hagrid handed them over to Professor McGonagall, and walked aside.

Professor McGonagall opened the door completely, and everyone looked in.

The hall is very spacious, Xiu thought it could fit his house in, the ceiling is so high that you can't see the top at a glance.

Professor McGonagall turned to look at them, and then said: "Welcome to Hogwarts. The opening banquet is about to begin, but before you enter the auditorium, you must first confirm which college you have entered. Classification It is a very important ceremony, because when you are in school, the college is like your home in Hogwarts. You will have classes with other students in the college, live together in the college dormitory, and live in the college common room together Spend spare time in the room."

"The names of the four houses are: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Each house has its own glorious history and has produced outstanding wizards and wizards. You are in Huo During Gewartz's studies, your excellent performance will earn your house points, and any violations will make your house lose points.At the end of the year, the house with the highest score will win the house cup, which is very high Honor. I hope that no matter which house you are assigned to, you will bring honor to the house.

"In a few minutes, the sorting ceremony will be held in front of all the teachers and students of the school. I suggest that you tidy up yourselves and be more energetic while waiting." (From the original work)

Xiu heard someone whispering about the issue of sorting, because almost no freshmen knew how to sort, and several young wizards were trembling with fright, which made him laugh.

Suddenly, a strange coldness made him tremble, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head, and more than a dozen sharp shouts rang in his ears.

Xiu immediately realized what it was.

Twenty or so pearly white, translucent ghosts floated to and fro, reminding him of his long days as a spirit.

The panic didn't last long, and Professor McGonagall made them line up and follow her.

They entered the restaurant.

This is really unimaginably wonderful!

No matter how vivid the description in the book is, people who have not seen it with their own eyes will never be able to appreciate this shock!

There are four long tables in the auditorium, and students from other grades have already taken their seats.Thousands of candles floated in mid-air to illuminate the Great Hall, and four long tables were set with exquisitely gleaming gold plates and goblets.There is another long table at the head of the dining table, where the professors are at that time.

The ceiling is dark, with stars shining, exactly the same as the night sky outside, extremely beautiful.

Hugh White heard a proud voice say: "I know this, the ceiling of the Hogwarts auditorium has been enchanted, permanently, it looks exactly like the sky outside, and it will change with the weather."

Xiu suddenly felt a line of sight resting on him, he looked up and met a pair of empty, indifferent black eyes.

Professor Snape!

Xiu smiled gently at him across the crowd, but the man quickly looked away.
