gray eye to gray eye

……

I stumbled into the crowd and walked towards a not very bright lamp. I could smell the fresh water in the air. It seemed that there was a big lake nearby.

The road is not very smooth, and there are little fur kids squeezing around.

I try to follow the platinum head ahead that shines even in the dimness of night.

"Can't you hurry up?" Draco yelled after turning sharply and following several people.

"I tried my best!" I pushed forward with all my strength.

After Draco waited for me to catch up, he grabbed my arm and strode forward.

Somehow, it was less crowded!

"First year! First year come this way! Harry, come this way, how are you?"

With a big, tangled beard, he was an absolute giant, perfect for a freshman job, because no one could fail to see such a huge target.

"What did he eat to grow up?" I asked in surprise.

Draco hummed impatiently, "You can't read more books!"

"Me too!" I said angrily.

"He's a half-breed of a wizard and a giant." Draco's gloomy face suddenly improved, and he explained lazily.

"Oh." I nodded.

"Come on, come with me, there are still first-year freshmen? Watch out for your feet, okay! First-year freshmen come with me!" The man who was three or four times our height shouted loudly while holding a lamp.

There was another burst of crowds.

I was dragged by Draco to follow the giant, slipping, stumbling, and seemed to be going down a steep and narrow path.It was pitch black on both sides of the path, and only the shadowy shadows of trees could be seen vaguely.

Someone sniffed from time to time, and whenever this sound came, Draco would frown vigorously, and step faster and faster.

"Turning this corner, you will soon see Hogwarts for the first time." The leading giant shouted back.

Then there was a loud "Oh—!" from the crowd.

I looked up, and at the end of the narrow path, a black lake suddenly opened up, with a fleet of small boats moored on the shore of the lake.On the high hillside on the other side of the lake stands a majestic castle with many spiers and windows twinkling under the starry sky...

"No more than four people in each boat!" The giant reminded loudly, pointing to a group of small boats moored on the shore.

Draco immediately pulled me onto the nearest boat.

Pansy and Blaise followed.

Crabbe and Goyle had to board a nearby boat with two children they didn't know.

"When did you catch up?" I asked slightly out of breath.

"Honey, but we're always behind you!" Pansy exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Seriously, dear Sharon, you should take your eyes off Draco once in a while!"

"Nothing like that!" I cried.

Blaise laughed "chichi", "Pansy, baby Sharon is just a little innocent..."

"Can we sit down?" I ignored this incomprehensible topic, looked around, and asked back, "I'm a little tired!"

"I can't believe it, you have to exercise more!" Draco said, crossing his arms, "Look at the bottom of this boat, how dirty it is!"

I have nothing to say, regardless of past life or present life, I am not a person who likes to move. Practicing spells with Draco in the past almost a year is probably the time when I move the most.

"Is everyone on board?"

The crowd was in a hurry for a long time before they heard the leader shout.

He was in a boat all by himself, I gotta say it was a must!

"That's good... let's go!"

Immediately a fleet of small boats moved forward automatically across the glass-flat surface of the lake.

Everyone was silent, staring at the huge castle soaring into the sky.As we approached the cliff on which the castle stood, it seemed to tower over us.

"Heads down!" cried the leader as the first boats we were in approached the cliff.

I wondered how the tall body of the guide passed by, I wonder if he had to lie on the bottom of the boat...

Heads bowed, all, the boat carried us through the curtain of ivy covering the face of the cliff to the hidden open entrance.We followed a dark tunnel that seemed to be underground under the castle, and finally arrived at a place that resembled an underground dock.

"Going down... oh, I can't believe it, you're in a daze again!" Draco said, poking my arm hard.

"Eh..." My face was slightly hot, and I jumped ashore in a hurry.

Draco quickly reached out and grabbed me.

"Thank you!" I secretly moved my sore ankle and said awkwardly.

Draco raised his neck, which clearly showed his disdain for answering me, and strode forward on a road paved with gravel and small cobblestones.

I was a little ashamed and chased after him.

"Hey, look! Is this your toad?" The students got off the boat one after another, and the guide shouted when he checked the empty boat.

"Thank God!" exclaimed a chubby boy ecstatically with his arms outstretched.

Draco frowned again in disgust.

In other words, I have never been able to accept that someone would be willing to raise a toad with a strange color!

Then they climbed a long tunnel in the rock, and finally came to a flat, wet meadow in the shadow of the castle.

Then there is a flight of stone steps, and a huge oak door appears in front of you.

This journey is really not easy!

I'm starting to regret missing lunch in order to sleep!

In the last part of the way, I was almost dragged by Draco and walked up.

At this time, the leading giant yelled something, raised a huge fist, and knocked three times on the castle gate.

The door opened immediately.

A tall dark-haired witch in emerald green robes stood in front of the gate.

She looked quite serious, the most standard dean of students look!

"Thank you, Hagrid. I'll pick you up here." She opened the door wide.

The foyer was very large, with blazing torches surrounding the stone walls.The ceiling is so high you can barely see the top.On the front is a luxurious marble staircase leading directly to the upper floor.

We followed the man known as Professor McGonagall along the stone-paved floor to a small vacant room at the far end of the hall, and from the side door came the humming of several hundred people.

Everyone crowded into this small room, huddled shoulder to shoulder, and stared nervously at everything around them.

"Welcome to Hogwarts," said Professor McGonagall. "The opening banquet is about to begin, but before you go to the dining hall, you must first confirm which college you have entered. Classification is a This is an important ceremony, because the college is like your home at Hogwarts while you are at school. You will attend classes with other students in the college, live in the college dormitory together, and spend time together in the college common room After school time.

"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 the teachers and students of the whole school. I suggest that you tidy up yourselves and be more energetic while waiting."

Her eyes swept over us.

I nervously raised my hand and ran through my hair.

"Put it down, idiot, your hair is fine!" Draco smacked my arm, his voice lowered.

Well, I no longer have the extravagant hope that I can put on airs as an adult!He honestly put his hands down and stood upright.

"I'll pick you up when it's ready over there," said Professor McGonagall. "Please keep quiet while you wait."

She left the room, and several people let out a breath at the same time.

I clutched my slightly aching stomach and whispered, "When can we have dinner!"

"You can't calm down for a while!" Draco raised his eyebrows and said, secretly stuffing something in his hand.

It's a piece of milk chocolate exuding an alluring sweet aroma!
