[hp] That Slytherin I've seen

The communication between the three freshmen was very pleasant, at least Penelope and Sirius felt so, so only the world where James was injured appeared.

After getting off the train, they took a boat again and crossed the river to the castle of Hogwarts. Penelope raised her head, and she could see the pointed top of the castle and the pale yellow light through the windows.

The warm color has a magical effect, it makes Penelope feel very warm, after getting off the boat, a group of children followed behind a tall, thin witch, Penelope stood at the front of the line The location, thanks to James and Sirius, otherwise she would have been caught in a meatloaf.

"The schools will be separated later." Sirius whispered in Penelope's ear, "The professor calls your name, and then you go up and sit on the chair, and she will put a hat on your head." A talking hat."

"A talking hat?" Penelope expressed surprise and couldn't wait to see its magic.

"Yes, the hat will decide where you go, but you can also bargain with it!"

James leaned over and blinked, "For example, tell it firmly that you want to come to Gryffindor!"

Penelope shook her head and told James, "I'm in Hufflepuff, and I can secretly bring you delicious food. After all, Hufflepuff's common room is next to the kitchen."

James seemed to be convinced by this reason, he nodded firmly, and patted Penelope on the shoulder, "This difficult task is entrusted to you!"

Penelope laughed out loud, she really didn't expect James to love food so much.

At this time, the tall door opened, and the professor said loudly: "Line up, don't be crowded!"

At the moment when the crowd entered the auditorium, Penelope dared to swear that she would never forget this scene in her life.

The ceiling was a deep dark blue at night, and a candle was floating in the air, which made Penelope wonder if it was because of the silk thread tied to the candle.

Four long tables occupy most of the auditorium. At the front, there is a horizontal table. In the middle sits an old man who looks very kind. Penelope also saw Professor Splet, the chubby The fat lady seemed to recognize her too, and waved at her.

All this shocked Penelope. The students on the long table were very enthusiastic about the new students, and some people were whistling. She was suddenly glad that she was a witch, otherwise she might regret it for the rest of her life if she didn't see such a scene!

The sorting ceremony soon began, and the tall, thin lady, Professor McGonagall, held a long roll of parchment in her hand and began to call the students by their names.

The first familiar name Penelope heard was Lily Evans, the red-haired girl. James was very excited. He stood on tiptoe and said in a cheerful tone: "Look Sirius, isn't she very nice?" pretty!"

"As long as you like it." Sirius didn't have much interest in Lily, but he started counting the new students this year. Compared with the girls, he obviously wanted to know if he could go to Gryffindor.

"Gryffindor!"

The sound of the Sorting Hat made the Gryffindor table boil for a moment, James whistled, he seemed to notice that Sirius was absent-minded, and started talking to Penelope, "Guess how long it took me to catch her! "

This childish question successfully made the corners of Penelope's mouth twitch. While listening to Professor McGonagall, she replied to James, "I find it difficult."

According to Penny's letter, Lily had a childhood friend, and both of them were wizards. Penelope thought about it and felt that James was basically hopeless.

James, who was shocked by Penelope, did not give up hope. Hearing his name, he stepped onto the stage with arrogance. Penelope saw the brim of the sorting hat just touching his hair, and shouted out loudly. "Gryffindor".

Perhaps traditional wizarding families have a way to calculate in advance which college they will be assigned to.

Penelope remembered that James had always sworn that he was a Gryffindor, and guessed wildly.

James, who was assigned to Gryffindor, first clenched his fist at Sirius as a cheering gesture, and then winked at Penelope, which made her a little nervous.

What if it wasn't Hufflepuff?

She remembered what James had said.

"You can bargain with the Sorting Hat."

While she was thinking wildly, Professor McGonagall finally called her name.Penelope went up, she felt her legs were trembling, sat on the chair, a big hat was put on her head.

Penelope closed her eyes tightly, she was as nervous as a criminal waiting to be sentenced, when a deep voice rang in her ear.

"Little girl, don't be nervous..."

"Okay, sir, I'll try my best."

Penelope answered silently in her heart.

"Merlin must have added a lot of kindness and loyalty potions when he created you. I think you are very suitable for Hufflepuff. What do you think?"

"We agree!"

Penelope's hanging heart finally let go at the moment when the Sorting Hat called out "Hufflepuff". She showed a big smile and thanked Professor McGonagall. James on the long table in Fendor was trying to gesture with her, while Sirius standing in the line just smiled, obviously he was still worried about the sorting.

Welcomed by her Hufflepuff classmates, Penelope sat on the long table and was almost at Sirius. She was still a little nervous. After all, James and Sirius were the first ones she met in Hogwarts. Friends, she hoped they could get what they wanted.

Finally, Sirius put on the hat. He should be bargaining with the Sorting Hat just like James said. Penelope looked at the Sorting Hat intently, and he called out "Gryffindor!"

This is really good!

Penelope and Sirius smiled at each other, it was a lucky day for all three of them to get their wish.

There was no one she was familiar with among the freshmen. Penelope turned around and looked curiously at the tableware on the long table, which seemed to be made of silver.

"Hi, your name is Penelope, right?"

"That's right!"

She turned her head, and the girl sitting next to her was greeting her, "My name is Bobby, Bobby Nuoen."

Looking at the robe on Bobby, Penelope knew that the other party was also a freshman. Bobby seemed to see that Penelope was very curious about the tableware, so he leaned into her ear and said, "We only need a spell later, these The utensils will be filled with delicious food!"

Penelope admitted that she wanted to see the sudden appearance of food, and she also leaned into Bobby's ear and asked, "When will the food suddenly appear?"

"Wait until the sorting ceremony is over."

Wait, that voice doesn't belong to Poppy!

Penelope looked up, and it was the girl on the other side who said it. She looked a little serious and tilted her head, as if she didn't understand why the two of them had to get together and talk in a low voice. Her long black hair was braided and hung down on her chest. , "Actually, you can speak louder."

"..."

Penelope and Bobby looked at each other and burst out laughing.

"Hello, my name is Penelope." Penelope held out her hand to the braided girl. "Could you please be my friend?"

The serious girl just now seemed a little shy. She cleared her throat and smiled at Penelope, "My name is Locke, does it sound like a boy?"

"That's true, but the names of the three of us don't seem to be very gentle?"

Poppy took the conversation and blinked, which made Penelope agree. "I used to pester my parents to change my name to Alice when I was a kid."

The topic of girls is easy to establish. Both Bobby and Locke come from wizarding families. Penelope introduced them to things in the Muggle world, such as telephones, televisions and cars, which surprised the two girls, like Penelope who is new to the wizarding world.

While talking, Penelope did not forget to pay attention to the sorting ceremony. She really wanted to hear the name she had been saying for several years from Professor McGonagall.

Although he never answered a letter.

At this moment, Merlin seemed to hear what Penelope was thinking.

"Severus Snape."

Penelope raised her head sharply, and Bobby was still talking about how naughty she had received a yelling letter from her mother who was on a business trip to South Africa, and she had no time to listen to the story.

On the stage, with shoulder-length black hair, was a thin figure wrapped in a robe.

Well, it was Sev.

"Slytherin!"

The Sorting Hat seemed to decide where Severus would go at once, and Severus didn't seem to bargain, he walked towards the Slytherin table with a smile on his face.

It seems that he is very happy.

This result made Penelope a little hard to accept. She felt that Severus should go to Ravenclaw, because he was smart and could remember the winding road in Spider's End.

Poppy seemed to see Penelope's absent-mindedness, poked her with his elbow, and asked, "Do you know that boy?"

Penelope hesitated, but nodded anyway.

"Then remember not to go to him casually," Bobby said seriously, "Slytherin doesn't like Muggle-born wizards, they only like pure-blood families, your friend will be very sad if he is not a pure-blood in Slytherin .”

"That's right." Locke also came over, "Slytherin is the academy that is most likely to produce dark wizards."

Penelope knows about dark wizards. It is written in books that dark wizards are evil and like to use the most tortured people.The most powerful black magic.

"I will remember, and stay away from them."

Penelope nodded, grateful to Poppy and Locke, it was the fourth time she had heard such words, stay away from Slytherin, because she was Muggle-born.

What about Severus?He also lived in the Muggle world.

James had said that Slytherin would not accept Muggle-born students, which meant that someone in his family was a wizard, but his father was obviously not, and no wizard would be knocked down by a plank.

Thinking of this, Penelope's thoughts were interrupted by a ding, and the old man sitting in the middle knocked on the cup and said something, because Locke pulled her to draw her attention to the table.

At this time, something miraculous happened. In an instant, the tableware on the table was filled with food. Buttered bread, milk, toast, bacon, and various foods were placed on the table. Penelope was so shocked that her mouth opened wide. .

Bobby took the opportunity to stuff a strawberry into her mouth, and sandwiched a piece of delicious buttered toast, "My mother said that Hogwarts house elves are best at buttered toast."

"Cherry pie is it!"

Locke retorted.

“Butter toast!”

"Cherry Pie!"

……

Two people are arguing about eating, and Penelope... She has a piece of buttered toast, another piece of cherry pie, and the fork in her hand is reaching for the cheese spaghetti...

The world is big, the food is the biggest!
