[HP] Leader's Exclusive Rose

"Huh~" After hearing the sorting results, Rosalind let out a long breath, "Thank you, Mr. Sorting Hat." After speaking, Professor McGonagall picked up the Sorting Hat again, and Rosalind briskly passed on the Hufflepuff long table. He ran to Cedric amidst the applause.

Seeing the girl running towards him, Cedric subconsciously opened his arms to support her: "Be careful not to fall."

"It's all right." The girl waved her hand at him: "Hi, I'm Rosalind Shen. Please give me your advice in the future." She greeted the people around her with a smile, and sat down next to Cedric .

"You stayed up there for so long just now, I feel like time has stood still." Cedric's gray eyes met Rosa's dark brown eyes, and there was a trace of curiosity in the clear gray—he didn't Trust that nothing happened during the few minutes of silence.

"It was so dangerous just now! The Sorting Hat said that I was suitable for the three houses except Hufflepuff! It said that I could go to Ravenclaw and Gryffindor, and even said that I was in Slater It may be easier for Lin to get what he wants!"

Rosalind hurriedly and quietly talked about the experience just now - she didn't want to be misunderstood by people that she looked down on the Badger Yard just after she was assigned to Hufflepuff.

Cedric's eyes became a little lonely when he heard the words, and even the hand tightly held by the girl became a little stiff.

"And then?" He asked softly, but there was obvious anxiety in his tone.

"Then I was scared to death! Because you were assigned to Hufflepuff!" Rosalind put down the cup in her hand, but still held it, "so I begged immediately before it finished speaking. It let it sort me into Hufflepuff and I said my friend was there and I wanted to stay with him! Thankfully! It finally respected my choice!"

Following the girl's rapid output of information, Cedric's ears turned pink, and he sighed softly under her gaze, his eyes suddenly filled with indescribable affection.

"Thank you for choosing the same academy as me." After a pause, he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he spoke again, but omitted a word from the girl's words——

"Of course we'll be together."

When the last of the new students had found his house, Albus Dumbledore stood up.He looked at the students with a smile on his face, and stretched out his arms to them. Nothing seemed to make him happier than seeing the students gathered together.

"Welcome!" he said. "Welcome to Hogwarts for the new school year! Before the banquet begins, I want to say a few words. It's: idiots! Cry noses! Scum! Screw! Thank you!"

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, roast beef, roast chicken, pork chops, lamb chops, sausages, steaks, boiled potatoes, baked potatoes, French chips, Yorkshire pudding, pea shoots, carrots, and gravy appeared on the table , tomato sauce, etc. full of delicacies.

"A lot of food!" Rosalind couldn't help sighing in a low voice, and instantly got a response from another girl beside her: "Yes, yes! I have never seen so much food appearing at the same time before."

"Hello, my name is Rosalind Shen, you can call me Rosalind." She stretched out her hand to the girl with blond hair beside her, and immediately got a response: "Nelia Rivka, nice to meet you you!"

"Are you Asian? You look beautiful." Nelia praised sincerely. This was the first time she had seen an oriental face. To be honest, she found it very novel.

"Thank you, because my father is Chinese." Rosalind smiled kindly at her,

Cedric also greeted the people around him, especially the boy who greeted Rosalind - Ezel Drey.

Now he was trying to strike up a conversation with Rosalind, across from Cedric.

"Hello, hello! Nice to meet you! I'm Azel Drey, you can call me Azel! I can call you Rosalind, right?"

Cedric felt a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth - but he didn't show it.

"Uh... hello, Ezel." Rosalind was a little overwhelmed by his enthusiasm, but she still shook the hand he extended to her from behind Cedric.

"Rosa, do you want some of this pudding?" Cedric turned around and grabbed their holding hands calmly, and then put a fresh fruit pudding in her hand.

Rosalind hurried to catch it with both hands to prevent it from falling: "Ah yes, thank you Seid."

"Yeah, the pudding is very delicious, and this cake, you should try it too." Ezel pushed the cake in front of her towards her.

"Thank you Ezel." Rosalind smiled politely at him.He didn't notice Cedric's cold eyes at all.

Even before the first day of school was over, his little Rose was already missed.

Cedric knew he shouldn't feel that way, but possessiveness wasn't something a 12-year-old boy could handle very well.

So the boy raised his hand and wiped the girl's chin, his face was as gentle as ever: "You ate too fast, you accidentally got something stuck on it."

"Oh, okay." Little Rose didn't feel the faint smell of vinegar in the air, and naturally she didn't see his still clean fingertips.

He did it on purpose, but he did remind her to pay attention to the meal, didn't he?

After the meal, Dumbledore spoke again: "Oh, now that everyone is full and drunk, I want to say a few more words to you. At the beginning of the semester, I want to make a few points for everyone to pay attention to. Attention first-year freshmen, no students are allowed to enter the forest area on the school grounds. Some of our old class students should also remember this well.”

"Finally," he said, looking at the students from behind his pair of half-moon glasses, "Mr. Filch, the administrator, has also asked me to remind everyone not to cast spells in the corridors between classes. Quidditch players will be reviewed this term. It will be held in the second week of [-]. Anyone who is interested in participating in the college representative team, please contact Ms. Huo Qi.

"Now, before we all go to bed, let's sing the school song!" cried Dumbledore.Rosalind noticed at a glance that the smiles of the other teachers seemed to have froze.

Dumbledore flicked his wand lightly, and a long golden ribbon flew out of the wand, twisting and coiling lines of words high above the dining table like a snake.

"Each one chooses his own tune," said Dumbledore. "Get ready, sing!"

Then all the teachers and students sang loudly:

Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hogwarts,

Please teach us knowledge,

Whether we are bald old people

Or a child with a broken knee,

Our minds can accept

some fun stuff.

Because now our brains are empty, full of air,

dead flies and trifles,

teach us some valuable knowledge,

Give us back what we have forgotten,

You just do your best and leave the rest to us,

We will study hard until it turns into dung.

Everyone sang the school song in a hurry.Rosalind heard various tunes from it.

Dumbledore conducted the final bars for them both with his wand, and when they were done, he gave the loudest applause.

"Music," he said, wiping his eyes, "is more glamorous than anything we've done here! It's bedtime. Go back to your dorms, everyone."

At the head of the stairs, the four houses "split their ways" - the common rooms of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw are upstairs, while those of Hufflepuff and Slytherin are underground.

The Hufflepuff lounge is a bit higher than the Slytherins, though, and next to the kitchen.

When the little badgers came to a huge still life painting, the prefect Farshar even deliberately lowered his voice when introducing: "A little badger who hasn't gone to the kitchen to steal food can't be regarded as a qualified Hermit." Chippaqi student~"

The words successfully made everyone laugh, and the tension just now dissipated a lot.

On the right side of the corridor, there is a slightly darker stone trough with a pile of large barrels on it.

"Pay attention to my movements, if you make a mistake, you will stand outside smelling of jealousy—" As he said, Farshar pointed to the second bucket from the bottom up in the middle of the second row Knock five times quickly and then slowly.

The vat is connected to an earthen sloping passage. Walking up a short distance, you can see a very comfortable round low room, which reminds people of the shape of a slightly crouching badger.

The room is dotted with cheery honey-yellow and black - the Hufflepuff colors.The tables and round doors made of high-polished honey-coloured wood lead to the boys' and girls' dormitories on either side.

Rosalind and her companions stood in the lounge and looked around at the colorful plants and flowers that made the Hufflepuff common room feel alive: different varieties of cacti snaked along the walls in wooden circles. Shelves are lined up, some of them even swinging and dancing to the passing people, and curving ferns and vines hang from copper-bottomed planters from the ceiling.

"Ah, who touched my hair?" A girl's voice sounded, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Oh, by the way, forgot to introduce, these magical plants on top of our heads will help people comb their hair when they walk under them." Larry added softly.

Cedric and Rosalind quietly looked at the surrounding environment:

Rosalind thought it was very Hufflepuff, with decorative dancing badgers carved all over the wooden mantelpiece.

Above the wall is a portrait of Helga Hufflepuff, one of the four founders of Hogwarts, greeting her students with a small gold amphora.

“The small round windows are just level with the ground, and we can see the green grass at the foot of the castle rippled by the breeze, and the dandelions scattered around. Although these windows are located very low, the whole room is still full of sunshine all year round. So we Hedge Patch is the warmest and nicest house, isn't it?" Farmsher added, judging by her look, she liked Hufflepuff.

"If there's anything worse than Peeves, it's Administrator Argus Filch," Larry said at the right moment.

Farshar nodded: "However, he is also conscientious. His cat, Mrs. Norris, often helps him catch students who violate discipline, so be careful not to be caught."

"It's nothing, everyone go to the dormitory and have a good rest!" Fasher smiled and looked at the first-year freshmen in front of him.
