Chapter 32: Caramel Macchiato

The Sorting Hat had apparently forgotten that it was still in the Sorting House, where a group of professors and students were waiting for dinner.

It continued to ramble as if no one was around, "How did Luna know about the Sorting House?" ”

"I'm not telling you."

"Actually, if you don't say it, I can know." The Sorting Hat boasted. "Let me take a look."

"Aha, it turns out that the little girl also took the mind and saw it from her father."

"Regents? I still thought it was mind reading, but how could you? Anne immediately got some information from the Sorting Hat's words.

"Of course, Ravenclaw is also a natural dementor, and she uses magic to give me the same ability."

The Sorting Hat smirked, "So I know a lot of secrets, the most well-informed hat in the world, and knows a lot about magic. ”

"Not necessarily." Anne blinked slyly, "Have you ever seen a two-cornered hat?" ”

"Well, no."

"Where's the green beret?"

"I didn't ...... Yes. ”

"Turkish felt hats?"

"Nope!"

"Bowler hats, top hats, hard hats?"

"You're not done!" The Sorting Hat said angrily. "Why are you more talkative than me?"

"I haven't seen it yet, but would you like to see it?" Anne held her chin and smiled sweetly.

"It must be boring to be stuck in the principal's office all day, right? Dumbledore said that he was a little bored. ”

"It's not boring at all, I can think of new lyrics, that's the most rewarding thing."

"My brother said that people can't always do one thing, and occasionally change their brains, so that talent will spurt out like milking a cow."

"Oh, that makes sense." The Sorting Hat suddenly realized, "I said that the lyrics of the past few years have been a little dry. ”

"I overheard my dad and Uncle Aerys saying that next summer, they will go to Paris together for a vacation, will you go, by the way, change your mind and find some inspiration?"

"Paris? Isn't it beautiful? ”

"I don't know, but I heard from my brother that there is a very beautiful white satin there, the most beautiful in the world.

Can I take you to have a look, help you change the materials, and introduce you to a few beautiful women's hats by the way? ”

silent

There was a long silence.

"Continue to stay in the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts for a thousand years, or...... Come with me, I'll take you to see the world? ”

The Sorting Hat didn't know what to say, it was just suddenly in this moment, and it missed Godric Gryffindor very much.

The boy who loves to take him on adventures everywhere.

"I haven't been out for a long time, it's still the same style from a thousand years ago......"

"Retro style is trending now!"

"I'm shabby......"

"The more shabby it is, the more it shows history!"

"...... the headmaster"

"It's just a summer vacation, Professor Dumbledore, I'll fix it."

"Oh oh, good!" The Sorting Hat's voice trembled a little, and it admonished. "Don't forget, next summer, it's agreed, don't forget!"

Anne snapped her fingers.

Abduct the legendary wizard hat, plan through!

"By the way, Annie, which house are you going to?"

"Can you choose for yourself?"

"Well, no...... Well, there's always a privilege. ”

The Sorting Hat had long forgotten what Dumbledore had told him.

"I can decide which academy you want to go to."

"Let's do what you think." Anne held her chin.

"Not really...... Gryffindor? The Sorting Hat finally remembered Dumbledore's explanation.

"Isn't it Ravenclaw?"

"Ravenclaw isn't impossible."

"Forget it, just Gryffindor, I heard from my brother that Hermione was isolated by her classmates in Gryffindor, so I reluctantly went over to accompany her.

She is usually fierce, except for my brother, who loves to take care of her, and she doesn't have many friends. ”

"That'...... Gryffindor! ”

"Goodbye, Mr. Hat, I'll go see you at Dumbledore.

Do you have a name? ”

"Nope."

"Or would it be called a caramel macchiato?"

"What's that?"

"My favorite milk coffee."

"Forget it, it's a weird name."

"All right, Mr. Macchiato."

“……”

"Goodbye, Mister Macchiato."

Anne took off her hat and gave it back to Professor Flitwick.

At this time, the two sides had been chatting for twenty minutes, breaking the longest separation time.

Anne walked towards the cheering Gryffindors, but she glanced back at her brother William with a helpless smile on her face.

It seems that she was forced to go to Gryffindor.

Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief and applauded enthusiastically.

The twin brothers shouted, "We've got Stark!" We've got Stark! ”

William glared at Dumbledore, this bad old man was definitely secretly operating.

You know, the Starks have been Ravenclaw students since two years ago.

He protested!

Hermione shifted around the bench, humming to make room for Annie.

Anne sat down next to her.

Soon, the Sorting was over.

Professor Dumbledore stood up. Although he is very old, he always gives the impression of being energetic. His hair and beard were several feet long, he wore semicircular glasses, and his nose was heavily hooked.

"Welcome!" Professor Dumbledore said, his beard glistening with the light of the candles, "Welcome to Hogwarts for the new school year!" ”

Dumbledore opened his arms and said, "Let's start eating." ”

The golden plates and goblets in front of the students were suddenly filled with food and drink.

It was another sumptuous meal, and the auditorium reverberated with laughter and the clashing of knives and forks.

Dumbledore didn't eat, but left his seat and headed outside. Apparently dealing with Harry and Ron.

Five minutes later, he returned with Professors Snape and McGonagall.

Professor Snape's face was gloomy and he looked very unhappy.

Seeing that everyone was finally together, Lockhart tapped the golden cup in front of him and stood up with a smile on his face.

Everyone gradually fell silent, looking at the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

The hall was finally completely silent, and Lockhart coughed and said, "I, Gilderoy Lockhart, a third-class member of the Order of Merlin, an honorary member of the Defence Against the Dark Arts, and a five-time winner of Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award - but I don't talk about that, I don't beat werewolves with a smile!" ”

"As a former student, I returned to my alma mater after many years of absence, at the invitation of Professor Dumbledore and my dear friend, William Stark, the 'youngest Merlin Medalist'.

Everything is so beautiful. ”

"Here, I have prepared a few small gifts for the professors."

Oh hey, start giving gifts as soon as we meet, Lockhart is quite good at it?
