Ronald was assigned to Slytherin, and there was only sparse applause at the scene
Dunn was among those who applauded, and then heard Hermione whisper, "This is what Harry and Ronald discussed, they admire Tom and have always wanted to join Slytherin.
While applauding, Dunn said, "It's a pity, but I'm still happy for them.35
Hermione was acutely aware of the subtext in Dunn's words.
"Pity?"
"I could have invited them to the Lionheart if they were assigned the same Gryffindor as you, I think you should have heard from Moody, Hagrid?"
"Is the school ready to resume student club activities?"
Hermione's cleverness drew Dunn's attention.
He nodded and said: "That's right, after the final exam of last semester, Professor Dumbledore "Nine Seventy-Three" announced publicly that this school year will resume student club activities and Quidditch competitions. His original words are that the more tense the situation is, the more The more we should be optimistic."
Hermione immediately asked, "But what does this have to do with Harry and Ronald being assigned to Slytherin? Does Lionheart admit students from other academies like Ella and Angelica?"
"Accurately, Lionheart only admits students from the other three colleges except Slytherin."
"why?"
"Because Tom also set up a student organization similar to the Lionheart called Hydra, we had an agreement that the Lionheart would only recruit Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students, and Hydra would only recruit Slytherin students. "
This result was a bit unexpected by Hermione. Before she asked if she could discuss it with Tom and make an exception for Harry and Ronald, Dunn said directly: "It's not a bad thing for Harry and Ronald to go to Slytherin, I can recommend them to join Hydra. , If you perform well, you can become a backbone member even in the first grade."
Although it was a little different from the previous plan of the three, Hermione felt that it was not the case.
She joined the Lionheart, Harry and Ronald joined the Hydra, so that they could be close to both Dunn and Tom at the same time.
Ronald stood at the end of the freshman queue. After him, a boy was assigned to Gryffindor, a girl to Hufflepuff, and the last boy with a round face was assigned to Ravenclaw.
Slytherin, which has consistently ranked second among the four colleges, has the lowest number of freshmen this year.
This made Tom, who was sitting at the long Slytherin table, look a little ugly.
When Dunn explained to him last year why he didn't go to Slytherin, he said that Slytherin is a group of teammates who are only suitable for playing tailwinds. If the situation is dominant, they will definitely play all kinds of excellent cooperation.
But once the situation is passive, then various operations to sell teammates will emerge one after another.
This year's Slytherin enrollment numbers have proven Dunn's words.
As the main source of Slytherin students, the British pure-blood wizard family has not yet started to sell teammates, but all kinds of careful thoughts have reached the level of not covering it up at all.
Although disappointing, Tom did not lose his confidence.
Dunn has already strode forward, how could he be willing to fall behind?
The sorting ceremony was over, and Dumbledore rose from his seat again.
The buzzing voices in the hall suddenly stopped, and everyone looked at the faculty seats.
"Before the dinner begins, I must ask everyone's attention again, and I have a few announcements to make!"
"Mr. Sam, the gatekeeper of the castle, wants me to tell everyone that this year, the timetable for prohibiting random walks in the castle has changed again. Walking in the castle within the non-permissible time will be punished. The specific timetable can be found in the castle. on the bulletin board at the gate."5
"As before, the gamekeeper asked me to remind everyone that the forbidden forest on the other side of the field does not allow any students to enter, no matter what the method is.
Speaking of which, Dumbledore glanced over at the Gryffindor table.
It made Moody and Hagrid feel like this was meant for the two of them.
Dumbledore's mouth twitched.
He continued: "The above two points are equally valid for Beauxbatons students, so I hope you take them seriously."
"What I'm going to say next, which Hogwarts students should pay special attention to, is good news of course!
"First of all, we welcome two new professors this year, Professor Newt Scamander, who will be in charge of teaching the Conservation of Magical Creatures class and serving as the Dean of Hufflepuff!95
Newt rose from his seat and bowed to everyone.
There were applause from all four long tables, among which the Hufflepuff long table was the most enthusiastic.
"There is also a new professor, Professor Tina Goldstein, a graduate of Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in North America, who was a distinguished Auror at the North American Council of Magic, and will replace the Ministry of Magic's Auror, become the teacher of our new Defence Against the Dark Arts class.39
Applause broke out again, and some bold students even whistled.
Everyone has seen that Tina and Newt have an unusual relationship.
Tina greeted everyone generously.
Dumbledore squeezed his hands, and the auditorium immediately returned to silence.
"The next thing I want to announce is related to everyone here. At the end of last semester, I said that all student club activities and Quidditch competitions will resume at the beginning of this semester-"
Before he finished speaking, the four long tables erupted into warm applause and cheers.
It's a pity that Dumbledore poured cold water on everyone immediately.
"It is with great regret that I would like to inform you that the activities of the student associations are back to normal, but this year's House Cup Quidditch competition has been cancelled!
Buzz.
The auditorium immediately exploded.
The little wizards, who had been in the castle for a year, began to slap the table and protested loudly 3.1.
"Quiet!"
The voice of Deputy Principal Dwayne Gorshak casting a loudspeaker spell resounded through the auditorium.
Everyone stopped talking and stared at Dumbledore, hoping for a reasonable explanation.
"The reason for the cancellation of the Quidditch competition is not what everyone thinks, but this year there will be a large-scale event starting in December and continuing throughout the school year. The ditch game - yes, this year Hogwarts is going to have a very exciting event that goes back over 600 years, but there's more than a century in between, I think Someone has guessed the answer, and yes, the Triwizard Tournament will resume at Hogwarts this year!
