The whistle of the "tutu-tuk-tuk" train sounded, and Ning An carried his luggage bag alone, exploring the narrow train aisle to see if he could find an empty seat.

It turns out that if you go to bed late, you must get up late, maybe you thought too much in bed last night, and Ning An woke up and realized that he was probably getting up late. By the time he hurried to King's Cross Station, crossing Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, the train was almost gone.

Wiping the sweat oozing from his forehead, Ning An finally found a box with seats.

"It's not easy, next time you have to go to bed early, huh...... Go to bed early. Secretly swearing in his heart, Ning An carried the duffel bag and entered the box.

However, after entering the box, he realized that the atmosphere here was a little strange. The box for only four people could be seated, and at this time it was already full of three girls, and the only vacant seat was next to a girl with an arrogant face, no one in her eyes, looking up at the scenery outside the window.

Ning An was slightly embarrassed, he faintly felt the arrogant girl's disdain for him, but he didn't care very much, and sat down gently after putting down his luggage.

As he sat down, Ning An seemed to hear the girl directly opposite him, a breath full of relaxation, this girl let out a sigh, it seemed that Ning An's arrival relieved the embarrassment she faced alone.

Then the girl looked at Ning An, stretched out her hand and said, "Ah...... Hello, my name is Megan? Jones, you're also going to Hogwarts as a student? …… Oh...... Your face is rare, is it Oriental? The girl with brown hair and a few small freckles on her face said hello generously.

"Hmm...... Hello, my name is Ning An...... Yes...... I'm Chinese......" Ning An touched his nose and replied, as Megan spoke, the awkward atmosphere in the carriage seemed to have finally eased.

At this time, the girl sitting next to Megan unexpectedly said, "China? …… I've heard that it's an ancient and mysterious country......"

Ning An turned her head to look at her, this was a blonde white girl, with snow-white skin, with a pair of blue eyes, which looked very clear, she saw Ning An looking over, nodded at him slightly and said, "Daphne? Greengrass, from the Greengrass family. ”

Ning An didn't know much about the family in the wizarding world, and when he saw that the other party said hello, he also nodded and said, "Ning An, it's nice to meet you." ”

Perhaps because Daphne also joined in the chat, the atmosphere in the carriage gradually became relaxed and cheerful. Except for the girl sitting next to Ning An, she still looked out the window as if the other three did not exist, and never spoke. The other three were already chatting enthusiastically.

"What! Ning An, you haven't seen Quidditch? Megan Jones exclaimed, "You should really watch the Karfiri Ballista game, they're fantastic!" ”

"I think the Falmouth Falcons are much better than them, and this team is made up of strong wizards." Daphne stepped in.

"Hmm...... The strength of the ballista team is not bad! ”

"The Falcon is made up of pure-blood wizards."

"Hmph, anyway, the Ballista team is stronger than the Falcon team, and our family supports the Ballista team."

"Uh-huh, whatever you want, but the Ballista haven't won a Quidditch league in twenty-three years."

Just as the argument between the two was heating up, the box door was opened, and the woman pushing the snack cart reached in and asked, "Do you want something?" ”

"Ah, I'm going to have some chocolate frogs...... "Megan stopped arguing with Daphne and picked out her own snacks.

As soon as he saw the food, Ning An remembered that he was in a hurry to leave this morning and didn't even eat anything, so he also stood up and took a few pot-shaped cakes and some Bibi flavored beans from the dining car.

In the chat, time flies, and Ning An discovers that Meghan Jones is a very talkative little girl, and Daphne next to her? Greengrass, although a few pure-blood, mixed-race and other words pop up from time to time, but in general it is not difficult to get along with, especially after eating a multi-flavored bean with the smell of cow that Ning An gave her, Ning An thought she was going to lose her temper, who knew that she actually laughed, and said that she had never eaten cow.

Ning Anxin said: "If you have eaten it, it will be feces in your head." However, this also made Ning An realize that this person was not as mean as he looked, so except for the girl sitting next to him, the three of them chatted happily all the way.

In fact, Ning An saw that although the girl was facing out of the window, she seemed to be listening to their conversation curiously, and Ning An felt that her ears had fluttered lightly a few times many times, and felt that maybe she just couldn't wipe her face and inserted their conversation halfway, so she took the initiative to say hello to her.

However, the girl just turned around, looked at him arrogantly, and asked, "Which family are you from?" I've never heard of a pure-blood family of Orientals......"

Ning An said with a smile: "I want to ...... I don't think I'm from some pure-blood family, maybe only my grandmother is a wizard......" Ning An said nonsense.

When the girl had heard this, she looked at him with pity and cold eyes, and without saying a word, she turned her head to look out the window.

The train soon arrived at the station, and several people got off the train together, and as soon as they got off the train, they saw a tall figure carrying a lantern and shouting there, "First grade, first grade, this way!" Ning An guessed that it might be Hagrid.

At this time, Meghan next to her leaned over and whispered, "Oh, thank you, Ann, I really don't know how to spend this time if you don't come in......," she said with an exaggerated expression, "It's so hard to stay in the same carriage with Calydora and Daphne." ”

"The girl's name is Calidora, isn't she? …… However, didn't you have a good chat with Daphne......" Ning An said with a smile.

"Ah...... That's, I didn't expect her to be an easy-going person......" Meghan suddenly said with some embarrassment, "You must know that she and Calidora are both pure-blooded ...... of the Twenty-Eight Family"

"What are you talking about?" Daphne asked, with clear eyes.

"Meghan is complimenting you on being kind and easy to get along with." Ning An said casually.

"Ah, no, we're talking about Calidora......" Meghan hurriedly waved her hand, hastily shifting the subject.

"Oh...... Kalidora, she's been like that since a long time ago, just don't worry about it. Daphne said with a lighthearted smile.

"You know her?" Ning An asked suspiciously.

"Well, I know, she is the only daughter of the Shafiq family's generation, the Shafiq family is thin, and she is the only child in this generation, I have known her since I was very young." Daphne nodded and said as a matter of course.

"Don't talk about that...... Meghan interjected, "which house would you like to be sorted into?" She looked a little apprehensive.

"I don't care." Daphne shrugged her shoulders and said, "Although I'm almost certain I'll be sorted into Slytherin. ”

Ning An scratched his head and said in a relaxed tone, "I don't know either...... But I guess I might get sorted into Gryffindor. ”

Meghan was still immersed in her own distress, and she said with a bitter face, "Merlin forbid, put me in Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw, not Slytherin......" She continued despite Daphne's stiff face, "My mom is a Ravenclaw graduate, my dad is a Hufflepuff graduate, and they both want me to go to their former house......"

She sighed again and said, "Actually, I personally think Gryffindor is also very good...... Just don't go to Slytherin. ”

The three of them chatted like this, and after a while they followed Hagrid to an empty meadow in front of a tall castle, in front of which was a cave with a boulder, and when they arrived, the boulder slid to one side, and out came a dark-haired woman wearing square glasses and a long robe, and she said in a loud voice, "First-year freshmen come with me." ”

They followed her into the cave, and after a round and turn, they finally came to the tall castle, and they followed a stone-paved path into the castle, and followed the floor to the other end of the inner hall, in a small empty house.

Then the woman, Professor McGonagall, began to speak

"The opening party is about to begin, but before you get to the cafeteria and take your seats, first of all, you all need to decide which house you are going to...... The names of the four houses are: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin......"

Listening to Professor McGonagall talk about some of the requirements of the branch and the new semester, as well as things related to the House Cup, Ning An looked around.

Whether it was at the Leaky Cauldron or on the train, Ning An didn't deliberately wait or look for Harry. He felt that Harry had his own destiny and his own life, so there was no need to deliberately stick to Harry.

But now he wanted to see if Harry spotted him, and if not, he was sure that Harry would be surprised to see him at the sorting ceremony in a moment's time.

But he couldn't find it after looking around, and he thought maybe everyone was about the same height, so he blocked it. At this time, Meghan Jones, who was standing beside him, was already trembling a little.

She whispered to Ning An as if asking for help, "Oh my God...... How will they be divided...... What if I get sorted into Slytherin...... Oh my gosh......"

Looking at Megan's appearance, Daphne on the side couldn't help laughing, she squeezed her eyes narrowly at Ning An, as if to say, "Look at the scare her...... haha"

Ning Anxin said: "You're not nervous. Then he could only comfort Megan, saying that she must not be sorted into Slytherin, he had this instinct.

After waiting for a moment, everyone entered the hall in a panic, where the students of the other houses were already sitting around four long tables, countless candles fluttering above the tables, and gold plates and goblets filled the table.

In a clearing in front of the table was a lonely chair with a worn, badly worn and patched hat on it—it was the Sorting Hat.
