A total of 34 freshmen entered Hogwarts this year, 2 more than last year.
But in fact, excluding the three Hermiones and Mera, who had no chance to enroll, the real number of freshmen is only 30, which is less than last year.
If the situation continues to deteriorate, there will only be fewer new students next year.
Dwayne-Gorsak put a three-legged stool in front of the freshman line, and a tattered, dirty, patched wizard hat on the stool.
The students of the four academies all turned their attention to the Sorting Hat, expecting it to sing like last year, but unfortunately, the Sorting Hat did not respond when Gosack took out the parchment and started to call.
"Whoever's name is called later puts a hat on his head and sits on a stool," Goshak told the first-year students. "When the hat announces the college, go and sit at the appropriate table."
"Hermione- Granger!
Hermione, who was first in line, stepped forward calmly and put the wizard hat on her head.
Just as he was about to turn to sit on the stool, the wizard hat suddenly opened his mouth and shouted the result.
"Gryffindor!"
Applause erupted from the Gryffindor table on the far left, and both Moody and Hagrid stood up excitedly, applauding as they went - welcoming Hermione.
Both of them knew that Hermione was a very powerful little girl. Although she came from a Muggle family, her magical talent and learning ability were no worse than El-Ra.
Hermione put down her Sorting Hat and ran flushed to the Gryffindor table.
Angelica, who was sitting on the long table on the left in the middle, glanced at Ella, who was sitting opposite a girl with glasses and two ponytails.
Although she was unhappy that Hermione and Dunn were assigned to the same academy, at this moment she believed that the person who was more unhappy than her was Ella.
Ella spends a vacation with Hermione, instilling in him the benefits of joining Ravenclaw.
In the end, the Sorting Hat still assigned Hermione to Gryffindor.
The students of Beauxbatons were startled by the sudden speaking of the Sorting Hat, and they sat at the table and whispered.
Fleur, Gabriel, and Maxim were all applauding, sincerely happy for Hermione.
Standing in the freshman queue, Harry looked back at Ronald, who was three people away from him.
The two have already discussed, this time the separation ceremony, they want to try different options.
The sorting ceremony continued.
Two girls were assigned to Hufflepuff, then one boy went to Ravenclaw.
Dwayne-Gorsak said aloud the name of the next freshman.
"Meera Hild!"
The little red-headed girl stepped forward, put on her hat, and sat down on the stool.
The Sorting Hat thought for a while, and it was possible that she was asking Mera about her own intentions, and finally announced the result.
"Slytherin!"
On the far right of Slytherin's long table, there was a sparse applause. This was because Tom and Abu both took the lead in applauding, and many people followed.
More Slytherin students were whispering about the surname Hilde.
Obviously, this is not any of the pureblood families that everyone is familiar with.
Not only the students of Slytherin, but also the students of the other three colleges were very curious.
Few students from non-pure blood families are assigned to Slytherin, and this year is even more special.
Several pure-blood families have delayed the school age of their children for various reasons.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that these pure-blooded families are all swingers.
Now the situation is clearly dominated by the Dark Lord Greenwald. Even though the British Ministry of Magic has stated that they will fight to the end, these pure-blooded families still have their own careful thoughts in private.
It is foreseeable that this class of Slytherin students will be the least.
There may even be an embarrassing situation that a freshman does not have.
In this case, Mera was assigned to Slytherin, which naturally aroused everyone's attention to her background.
Of course, that eye-catching red hair and pretty face are also one of the reasons why Mera is so striking.
After Mera, no new students were assigned to Slytherin.
Hufflepuff still maintains the lead in numbers, with Ravenclaw and Gryffindor taking the same number of freshmen this year.
Soon the freshman queue was empty, and Dunn's long-awaited name finally rang out from Dwayne-Gorsak's mouth.
"Harry Potter!
........for flowers....
Harry stepped forward and put the Sorting Hat on his head.
Putting on the Sorting Hat for the second time in his life, Harry was no longer nervous when the familiar voice sounded in his ears.
"Well, it looks like a lot of courage, not a bad heart, a talent. Oh my gosh, very good - you have a strong desire to prove yourself, or ambition... so I should put you Where does it go? 35
Harry's two hands on his knees clenched subconsciously, thinking to himself, "No Gryffindor! No Gryffindor!"
"Is it not going to Gryffindor? What an unexpected decision!" the small voices in my ears asked, "Have you made up your mind? Whether to follow the established path or choose an unprecedented path, no matter what, you Both will do great things - well, now that you've made up your mind, you'd better go to Slytherin!"5
Harry was relieved when he heard the hat call out the last name to the entire auditorium. He took off his hat and looked at Ronald, who was standing opposite the freshman, and both saw the excitement in the other's eyes.
That method works!
They made it!
On the Slytherin long table, the applause was much louder than the last time.
Although the Potter family is not among the 28 pure-blooded families in the United Kingdom, it is also a relatively famous wizard family, at least much more famous than the Hilde family that came out of nowhere.
On the faculty chair, Slughorn turned his head to Dumbledore to inquire about the Potter family, apparently surprised that Harry was assigned to Slytherin.
Dunn was rather calm.
In the normal timeline, Harry's assignment to Gryffindor was actually arranged. According to the standards of the Sorting Hat, he should have been assigned to Slytherin.
But then Ronald was also assigned to Slytherin, which surprised Dunn a little.
Isn't the Weasley family a shame for the British pureblood family? The Sorting Hat even assigned him to Slytherin.
Well, this is actually quite normal.
The Weasley family was poor, but in terms of the purity of blood, it was much higher than Harry's.
Harry can go to Slytherin, there's no reason Ronald can't go an inch.
