"It's hard, it's very hard!"

A shrill voice rang in Jon's ears:

"I can see that I have a lot of courage, my heart is not bad, and my talent is not bad......"

"I want to go to Hufflepuff!" Jon said to himself

"What?" said the Sorting Hat's shrill voice, as if there was something unbelievable.

"I want to go to Hufflepuff!"

"There's no doubt that while you meet all the requirements to be a Hufflepuff student, I don't think that's a great choice......"

"I want to go to Hufflepuff!"

"Have you made up your mind, if you go to Gryffindor, there is no doubt that it will lead you to glory......"

"I want to go to Hufflepuff!"

"Don't you have any other ideas?" roared the Sorting Hat impatiently

"I want to go to Hufflepuff!"

"Are you only going to repeat that?" the Sorting Hat seemed a little angry.

"I want to go to Hufflepuff!"

When Jon repeated the phrase for the sixth time, the Sorting Hat couldn't stand it anymore, and wanted to call out the name throughout the dining room:

"Hufflepuff!"

The crowd at the right-hand table began to applaud and cheer at him, and the fat friar waved at him.

At the table on the far right, Astoria let out a slight sigh when she heard the voice for some reason.

Jon breathed a sigh of relief that he finally didn't have to go to Gryffindor and be with the protagonists.

"Honestly, you're the second student of the century to offer to go to Hufflepuff!" the Sorting Hat's voice rang in Jon's ears again.

"Oh, and who's the first one?"

"Newt Scamander, I hope you can be as good as he is!" The Sorting Hat sent it a good wish: "Mr. Scamander was expelled from Hogwarts when he was in his fifth year......"

Before he could talk to the Sorting Hat, Professor McGonagall had already walked over and pulled the hat off his head roughly.

"Luna-Lovegood!" shouted Professor McGonagall.

The strange girl, who had been rowing in the same boat with Jon before, hurried over.

Jon had reached the table to his right, and a tall boy walked up, "Welcome to Hufflepuff, Jon...... My Hufflepuff prefect, Gabriel Truman!"

"Hello, Gabriel!"

"Come, Jon, sit here!"

A ruddy-faced little girl with two blonde braids pulled Jon to where she had been.

The sorting ceremony continues.

Luna Lovegood was sorted into Ravenclaw...... Steven Lucas, like Jon, became a new Hufflepuff student......

Applause rang out in the hall again and again, and one freshman after another became members of the various colleges.

The last two, Ginny Weasley went to Gryffindor and Madeleine Yaxley ended up going to Slytherin.

The sorting ceremony is over.

Professor McGonagall picked up the Sorting Hat and was about to put it away...... The door to the hall opened, and Professors Snape and Flitwick returned, Daphne Greengrass following behind them, their heads bowed and tears on their faces.

Professor Snape ordered his students back to the Slytherin table, and he leaned over to Professor McGonagall and whispered a few words.

The expression on Professor McGonagall's face seemed to be a little rich, and she didn't even have time to put away her sorting hat, and hurriedly followed Professor Snape out of the hall.

Professor Flitwick walked to the top of the podium and whispered something to Professor Dumbledore......

Dumbledore's face changed as well, and he quickly left the hall...... Even the classic quote "Stupid, crying nose, dregs, screwing!" I didn't even have time to say it.

The Headmaster and Deputy Headmaster were absent, and finally Ravenclaw Headmaster Filius Flitwick stood on Dumbledore's plate: welcoming new students to campus, introducing the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, Gilderoy Lockhart, and reminding everyone of the ban on entry into the Forbidden Forest and the review times for Quidditch players.

......

The dinner has begun!

"Would you like some steak?" the girl with two blonde braids enthusiastically recommended Jon, "Hogwarts steak is great!"

"Thank you......" Jon quickly cut off a steak, "By the way, I don't know your name yet!"

"Hannah, Hannah-Abbott...... I'm a sophomore!"

"I'm Cao!" Jon solemnly put down his knife and fork, and then shook Hannah's hand, "It's an honor to meet you, Hannah, oh no, Miss Abbott!"

Hannah messes with Jon about Hogwarts...... For example, the school is very safe, Dumbledore is the most powerful wizard in the world, the Hufflepuff students are very united, Professor Pomona Sprout is very good to them, and the school must not wander around at night, last year Gryffindor had three bad nights wandering around the school, and they were deducted 150 points......

"By the way, do you know Harry Potter?" said Hannah with a sudden and mysterious expression.

"Harry Potter, you mean the boy who didn't die?" Jon made a surprised look as he cooperated.

"Yes!" Hannah said proudly, pleased with Jon's performance, "Harry Potter is our student, and he is in Gryffindor House...... My grandfather always wanted me to go to Gryffindor, and he graduated from Gryffindor, but unfortunately the Sorting Hat didn't think I had enough courage ......"

As she spoke, Hannah's tone became a little lost, and she began to look at the Gryffindor table, intending to find Harry's trail and point it out to Jon.

It's a pity that Hannah doesn't know that Harry Potter and Ron Weasley are supposed to be in Professor McGonagall's office now, and they have just caused a catastrophe...... McGonagall, Dumbledore, and even Snape had already run over to wipe their butts.

"By the way, there may be one thing you don't know outside of Hogwarts......" After searching for a long time, Hannah continued: "At the end of last semester, Harry once again succeeded in stopping the mystery man's plot, and Professor Dumbledore specially added 160 points to Harry and Harry's friends, and helped Gryffindor take the House Cup in Slytherin's hands!"

"Wow......" Jon nodded repeatedly.

For the first time, Jon knew that the legendary iron-beaten Hannah Abbott was actually Harry's little fan girl.

But he didn't accept the Academy Cup...... This kind of trophy that is set a year in advance, how many points is the difference at the end of the semester, and how many points Dumbledore makes up, how do you tell others to play?

"By the way, how long has it been since Hufflepuff won the House Cup?" Jon asked curiously.

"This ......" Hannah seemed a little embarrassed.

"Seventy-nine years!" a slender, handsome boy turned his head and said solemnly, "The last time Hufflepuff won the House Cup was in 1913!"

"Uh......" This time is longer than Jon imagined.

At this moment, Jon suddenly had the idea of helping Hufflepuff win the House Cup...... However, this difficulty even surpassed the unrealistic idea of tearing Voldemort by hand, and he quickly put it behind him.

"Jon Hart, I remembered your name during the sorting ceremony just now!" the handsome boy smiled and said, "I'm Cedric, Cedric Diggory!"

"Cedric is the captain of the Hufflepuff Quidditch team...... The only person in this century to captain the Quidditch team in the fourth year!" Hannah behind him had an adoring expression on her face and reminded in a low voice: "His grades have always been the first in the fourth grade. ”

It seems that Jon misjudged that Hannah was not just a little fan sister of the savior Harry.

"Hello, Cedric!" Jon smiled and shook Cedric's hand.

He exchanged a few more words with Cedric, and the dinner gradually ended...... Dumbledore, McGonagall, and Snape are back, too!

Dumbledore introduced Gilderoy Lockhart to everyone again, and then began to direct everyone to sing the school song:

Hogwarts, Hogwarts,

Hogwarts, Hogwarts,

Teach us knowledge,

Whether we are old people who have lost our heads or children who have broken our knees,

Our minds can accept some interesting things,

......
