The Plane Merchant of Hogwarts

Chapter 140 Arriving at Hogwarts

;

"We will be at Hogwarts in 10 minutes." After dealing with the problems on the train, Professor Lupine walked back to the box and said to Harry, who was surrounded by people, "Are you feeling better, Harry?" "

Harry didn't ask Professor Lupin how he knew his name, because he found that it was not a good thing that everyone in the wizarding world knew him. After all, he said he didn't know him, which was not a good feeling.

"Much better, thank you for your concern." He whispered, as if he felt embarrassed for causing other people to worry because of himself.

The noisy twins and Ginny were all driven back to their box by Professor Lupine. After all, they needed to change into wizard robes quickly, and there was not much time left for them.

During the rest of the journey, Harry's energy obviously hadn't recovered much, and they didn't have the energy to talk anymore. It seemed that the surprise just now frightened them all.

Of course, the exception was our rotten Mr. Malfoy, whose thoughts lingered throughout the box, annoying Ron to no end.

Finally, the train finally stopped at Hogwarts station. With the help of the lights in the carriage, the little wizards packed their things to avoid leaving anything on the train.

After all, those house elves don't know who a certain item belongs to, but Neville's toad should be an exception.

It was a hustle and bustle as we got off the bus: owls were hooting, cats were meowing, and Neville's pet toad was croaking under his hat.

The small platform of the station was already frozen, and cold rain was pouring down. "First graders, come here." A familiar voice came to Rolf and his friends' ears.

As if they had rehearsed, they all turned around and looked at Hagrid's burly figure at the other end of the platform.

He was beckoning a group of panicked new students to take them on a traditional trip across the lake.

Rolf secretly complained in his heart: These freshmen are really unlucky. They were frightened by dementors as soon as they entered school, but there will be more surprises in the future.

"Are you okay, you guys?" Hagrid shouted to them over the many shaking little heads.

They waved back to him, but had no chance to speak to him because the people around them were pushing them along the platform.

Rolf and the others followed the other students of the school onto a rough and muddy road, where at least a hundred carriages were waiting for the remaining students.

There was a faint smell of musty and straw inside the carriage, so they separated and Rolf and Malfoy went to look for another carriage.

They happened to see Justin waving to them in a carriage, so they walked over. After getting into the carriage, they discovered that there was another girl sitting inside.

"Hi, Luna, how was your vacation?" Rolf greeted her. As a friend who shares weal and woe, he thought he and Luna were already familiar with each other.

When Luna heard someone greeting her, she looked up from the upside down magazine. When she saw it was Rolf, she smiled and said "Not bad", and then immersed herself in her abnormal reading method again. .

"Puch!" Malfoy next to him looked at Rolf and couldn't help but want to laugh. Whose friend is this? Why is he so cold?

However, the carriage ignored Rolf's embarrassment and started driving on its own, heading towards Hogwarts Castle.

Malfoy felt better since eating the chocolate, but he still felt weak.It may be a sequelae of diarrhea

But if you ask him if he still eats crayfish, he will probably say "it tastes really good"

The carriage rolled forward. In front of it was a pair of magnificent cast iron doors, with many stone pillars on both sides and a winged wild boar on the top.

Rolf saw two tall, hooded dementors standing guard on both sides of the gate. The atmosphere looked very serious.

Everyone once again felt a cold wave coming towards him. They huddled into the uneven seats and crazily stuffed chocolates into their mouths.

These chocolates were naturally prepared by Rolf before getting in the car, but he felt that maybe Coca-Cola would have a better effect.

Rolf seriously doubted that after this semester, Harry and the others would get tooth decay, but in that case, it would be a good time for Hermione and her family to take over the work.

Rolf looked at Malfoy, who was sitting next to him and had his eyes closed tightly. He didn't dare to open them until they walked into the door and stopped stuffing chocolates.

The carriage increased speed on the long slope drive, and Justin leaned out of the window and watched the many turrets and towers gradually approaching them.

They drove until they reached a familiar castle before swaying to a stop. Rolf was really afraid that this carriage would collapse with the seats and people in who knows what year.

"Are you okay Harry?" After Rolf got out of the car, he saw Harry being supported by Ron, feeling a little inexplicably miserable.

Hermione also supported Harry behind him, and these people joined the crowd walking up the stone steps, walked through the huge oak door, and walked into the deep front hall.

The torches were still brightly lit in the anteroom, which had a magnificent marble staircase leading upstairs, and everything was as it had been before.

The door on the right leading to the auditorium was open, and they followed the crowd towards the hall, but before Harry had time to look at the dark and dark ceiling tonight, he heard a voice shouting:

"Potter Granger, I want to see you two." Harry and Hermione turned around quickly after hearing this, very surprised.

Professor McGonagall, the head of Gryffindor House, was greeting them from across the crowd.

She had always been a stern-looking witch, with her hair pulled into a tight bun and square glasses over sharp eyes.

Harry was weakly helped to stand in front of her, feeling like something bad was about to happen.

Because every time he saw Professor McGonagall, it was almost always after he made a mistake, so he always felt that he might have done something wrong again.

The remaining three looked at Professor McGonagall and led Harry and Hermione away from the chatting crowd.

With Hermione's continued support, Harry followed her through the front hall, up the marble stairs, and down the corridor.

Hermione was called there because of the Time-Turner, and Harry was called there probably to have Madam Pomfrey double-check it.

Rolf and the others were still standing there, but after just a few minutes of waiting, Hermione and Harry appeared again.

Hermione looked very happy about something. Behind her was Professor McGonagall, and the three of them walked down the stairs into the Great Hall.

The auditorium was a sea of ​​pointed black hats. Each long table was filled with students, their faces lit up by thousands of candles suspended in mid-air above the tables.

When they were about to enter the auditorium, Professor Flitwick was walking out of the auditorium holding an ancient hat and a three-legged stool.

"Oh," Hermione said softly, "we missed the sorting ceremony." But looking at her expression, there was no trace of frustration.
