Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

"First-year students, please come this way."

Next to the stop of the express train, the huge Hagrid stood in the center greeting him. He was holding the pink umbrella in his hand, which was what he used as a wand.

"You want to go over there Natasha." Astoria pointed in the direction of Hagrid. Little Natasha looked at Hagrid and hid in Astoria's arms with some fear.

"It's okay, don't be afraid. Even if you look at Hagrid's physique, he is actually very gentle." Astoria said with a smile, "He is also one of the teachers at Hogwarts."

"Really?" Little Natasha was doubtful and walked to Hagrid under Astoria's guidance.

"That's right, little girl, just come over to my place." Hagrid greeted, and then he saw Louis and Astoria, "Hey, it's you two, how was your summer vacation?"

"Too bad, Hagrid." Louis shook his head. They did not stay here for long. The heavy rain forced them both to speed up their pace.

Following the flow of people, they finally arrived at the carriage that picked them up. However, due to the bad weather, the students were all crowded together and it was impossible to see where there were free carriages.

"Louis, here!"

Not far away, Harry waved to the two of them, and they walked hand in hand through the crowd, and finally got on the carriage before it started.

The car swayed back and forth on the muddy road, and within a few minutes, the appearance of Hogwarts Castle appeared in front of them.

"what happened?"

In front of Hogwarts Castle, there were more people than before. They seemed a little panicked and wanted to flee the scene.

"It's Peeves." Seamus, who was standing in front of Louis, pointed at the ghost in the sky holding a water ball and smashing it down.

"Peeves, get down here!" Professor McGonagall shouted angrily from below.

"They're already soaked, aren't they, Professor." Peeves chuckled, and without stopping, he smashed the red water ball at a group of sophomores who were moving forward cautiously.

"I'm going to tell the Headmaster if you do this again," said Professor McGonagall. "I'm warning you, Peeves."

Peeves stuck out his tongue, smashed the last water ball against the wall, and disappeared with a pop.

"Hey, keep going." Professor McGonagall directed the remaining students, "Quickly enter the auditorium."

"Why don't you think Professor McGonagall didn't do anything to Peeves?" Ron asked curiously. At this moment, they had arrived in the Great Hall of Hogwarts.

"Maybe she thinks Peeves is just an ignorant child." Hermione spread her hands and said, "When have you ever seen Professor McGonagall use magic on students?"

Although Minerva McGonagall is usually a bit strict, in the final analysis she is a good teacher with great principles and bottom line.

"see you later."

After entering the auditorium, Astoria and Louis' tight little hands loosened, and then she walked quickly towards the long table in the direction of Slytherin.

"Ahem, when did your relationship with Miss Greengrass become so good?" This scene was noticed by Ron, and he approached Louis with ill intentions.

"Stop chewing your tongue, Ron, be careful your tongue gets rotten." Louis scratched his ears and took the lead in sitting in the Gryffindor seat.

"Tch, if you don't want to say it, don't say it." Ron muttered and walked over, sitting next to Lewis. Their position was not too far back, and they could just see the teachers on the main stage.

"Hey, who do you think the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher will be this year?" Harry asked his friends curiously.

"I don't know, maybe they can't find the next one." Hermione's tone was a little anxious, because she also discovered that there was an empty seat on the teacher's bench.

"It will happen, Hermione, don't worry." Louis said from the side, he was using his wand to absorb the rainwater from his body, "And the new one this year is probably very powerful."

"how do you know?"

Before Louis could answer, a figure from behind excitedly joined their seat. That was Colin Creevey, who was in the same grade as Louis.

"Hey Harry, Louis, I'm so excited, guess who's here?"

"What? Colin?" Harry was confused, but Louis on the side answered calmly and without raising his head:

"It's your brother Dennis who is going to be sorted, Colin."

"Yeah, eh? How do you know?" Colin was a little surprised. He didn't seem to tell Louis his brother's name.

"You can tell by your excitement. You have to observe everything carefully, Colin."

"I hope he gets sorted into Gryffindor." Colin jumped up and down in his seat. "Pray for him, Harry."

"Okay," Harry said, turning to look at his friends, "Brothers and sisters are usually sorted into the same college, right?"

"Not necessarily, although the seven of us are all in Gryffindor." Ron pointed at Ginny and then pointed at Fred and George not far away.

"And Sirius, Harry, their whole family, including his younger brother, are all Slytherins, and he is the only one who is Gryffindor." Louis pointed out.

After all the arrangements were made, the teachers returned to their respective positions. In addition to Hagrid, who was taking care of the new students, and Professor McGonagall, who was preparing to sort the new students, there was another seat vacant waiting for Alastor Moody, who arrived late.

A few minutes later, the closed door in the auditorium was opened, and Mag led a row of freshmen to the front of the stage, where a tattered wizard hat was placed.

The freshmen were all wet and had some nervous expressions on their faces. Through the crowd, Louis saw Natasha, whom he had met on the train, timidly lining up in the middle of the line.

Professor McGonagall placed the broken hat on a four-legged stool, and then the wizard hat began to sing:

"That was a thousand years ago. At that time, I had just formed the organization. Four top magic wizards had a common dream and desire to establish Hogwarts and teach students..."

After the Sorting Hat finished singing, applause broke out in the auditorium, and Louis discovered that the Sorting Hat used a different song to explain this year.

"It's different every year, isn't it?" Harry said. "The song is a little different from the year before."

"Yes, it has a whole year to compose songs." Ron said. After a while, the auditorium became quiet, and Professor McGonagall rolled out a huge piece of parchment.

"As soon as I call the person's name, come up and sit on the stool, and Hat will sort you into different groups."

"Ackerley Stewart."

A boy stepped forward and the hat touched his head and said quickly:

"Ravenclaw!"

The long table in Ravenclaw House erupted in cheers, the joy of receiving a new student.

. . . . .

The sorting ceremony went more smoothly than Louis imagined. The Sorting Hat made the decision almost without thinking, which was completely different from Louis at the time.

"Dennis Creevey."

Little Dennis had the same handsome face as his brother. His little face was red and he looked particularly nervous. Professor McGonagall put the hat on his head, and the hat opened its mouth and cheered:

"Gryffindor!"

Colin, who was sitting next to Louis, breathed a sigh of relief, banged the table crazily, and ran to Gryffindor's side amidst everyone's cheers.

"Colin, I fell into the lake!" Dennis sat down on the empty seat. "It was so exciting. I felt like something in the lake pushed me up."

"That's great, Dennis, that's probably a giant squid." Colin was as excited as his brother.

"Wow!" Dennis yelled. This was an extremely amazing experience for a Muggle-born child who had never been exposed to the magical world.

"Hey, Dennis, did you see that the black-haired brother with glasses is the Harry Potter I told you."

Colin was introducing to his brother crazily, but Louis's focus was not on Dennis. He looked at Natasha in the team, and then found that over at Slytherin House, Astoria was also watching nervously. Sorting results.

"Natasha Romanoff."

The little girl heard Professor McGonagall calling her, stepped forward in small steps, and sat down in her seat.

However, a magical scene occurred. The Sorting Hat stayed for ten seconds, and it did not react at all during these ten seconds.

what happened? Is the Sorting Hat hesitating again? Louis frowned. This happened only twice in recent years. The first time was when Harry was sorted, and the second time was Louis.

Now the Sorting Hat's hesitation appears for the third time. You must know that the Sorting Hat is a magic hat jointly created by the four founders. It can peer into the soul and heart. In the final analysis, it was created with extremely profound soul magic. This is not as simple as today's Legilimency.

"Oh my gosh, it's hard, it's really hard."

"There seem to be two voices in your soul. These two voices lead in two different directions. I don't know why this happens."

"But there's one voice that dominates, well, let me see."

"Your soul is filled with hatred, and it represents shrewdness and desire for power, but in essence you are brave and kind. Well, I probably know where you are going."

The Sorting Hat struggled with it for almost a minute. This was probably the longest sorting session this year.

"If I were to make a decision, I hope the decision would not be wrong."

"Then you should go, Slytherin!"

"Slytherin? What? How could it be?" Louis frowned. Natasha went to a college she was least likely to go to, but Slytherin didn't accept Muggle-born students. Could it be that she had been there before? lie?

Louis couldn't imagine that such a young girl would choose to hide her life experience in order to gain his and Astoria's trust. Why on earth was this?

Just when he was thinking this, Natasha ran down. At the moment when the little girl stepped off the stage, her eyes looked at Louis, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. That look gave Louis a very familiar feeling. , as if I had seen it somewhere.
