There was silence in the auditorium, and everyone was staring at the hat.
Then the wizard's hat writhed on its own, and cracked a wide slit like a big mouthβand began to sing:
You may think I'm not pretty,
But don't judge people by their appearance,
If you can find a more beautiful hat than mine,
I can eat myself.
You can make your bowler hat jet black and shiny,
Make your high-capped caps smooth and crisp,
I'm the Sorting Hat of Hogwarts,
Naturally, they are taller than your hats.
Any thought hidden in your mind,
can't escape the golden eyes of the Sorting Hat,
Put it on and try it, and I'll tell you,
Which college should you be assigned to?
You may belong to Gryffindor,
There is courage buried in the bottom of my heart,
Their courage, their courage and chivalry,
Make Gryffindor outstanding;
You may belong to Hufflepuff,
The people there are upright and faithful,
Hufflepuff students are stoic and honest,
Not afraid of hard labor;
If you are shrewd,
Perhaps the Ravenclaw of wisdom,
Those who are wise and learned,
There will always be their fellow believers;
Maybe you'll get into Slytherin,
Make sincere friends here,
But those who are cunning and insidious will stop at nothing,
to achieve their purpose.
Come put me on! Don't be afraid!
Don't panic!
in my hands (though I don't even have a hand),
You are absolutely safe,
Because I'm a magic hat that thinks!
After the wizard hat finished singing, the audience applauded.
The hat bowed to each of the four tables, and then stood still.
β¦β¦
Professor McGonagall took a few steps forward, a roll of parchment in her hand.
"Whoever I call by name now puts on his hat and sits on a stool and waits for the Sorting House." She said.
"Hannah Abbott!"
A ruddy-faced little girl with two blonde braids stumbled out of the queue, put on her wizard's hat, which just covered her eyes, and sat down.
A moment laterβ
"Hufflepuff!" The hat shouted.
The students at the table on the right applauded and welcomed her to their seats. The Fat Friar's ghost waved happily at her.
"Susan Bones!"
"Hufflepuff!" The hat shouted again.
Susan Bones sped over to Hannah Abbott and sat down.
"Terry Bout!"
"Ravenclaw!"
This time, it was the students at the second table on the left clapping.
When Terry Bout joined them, several Ravenclaw students stood up and shook his hand.
β¦β¦
Everything is going according to plan.
"Elizabeth Fitzroy!"
Hearing Professor McGonagall pronounce her name, Nan Jiayu, who had always seemed calm, finally showed an uneasy expression on her face, and she slowly stepped forward, put on her wizard hat, and sat down on a stool.
ββ¦β¦ Slytherin! β
Nan Jiayu took off his hat and put it away, turned around and waved his hand to Lin Xiao'an slightly, and walked towards the Slytherin long table.
Lin Xiaoan saw that there were a few pig-like seniors on Slytherin's side with smiles on their faces, and they hurriedly stood up to greet Nanjiayu, and said something earnestly.
"Hermione Granger!"
Hermione Granger almost ran to the stool and hurriedly buttoned her hat to her head.
"Gryffindor!"
β¦β¦
After a few more names, I finally got to ......
"Sean Lim!"
Lin Xiaoan stepped forward, buttoned his hat to his head, and sat down.
"Oh, kid, your brain is like a bottomless black hole...... I can't see your mind...... So, which college do you want to go to? What about Slytherin? A subtle voice came from Lin Xiaoan's ears.
Lin Xiaoan said sincerely in his heart: "I want to go to Hufflepuff, Mr. Sorting Hat, please assign me to Hufflepuff, please!" β
"Why is that, child? Of course, it's not that Hufflepuffs are bad...... But, in general, no one would think of going to Hufflepuff in the first place...... "I didn't expect the Sorting Hat to get to the bottom of it."
Lin Xiaoan said bitterly in his heart: "Because it's better to eat melons in Hufflepuff...... No, I mean, Mr. Sorting Hat, even if you split me into Ravenclaw, I really, really don't want to go to Slytherin, my teacher, Professor Snape, is the most abusive of-"
"What?!" The Sorting Hat almost screamed, writhing violently, "So you're Professor Snape's apprentice, Lin Xiao'an!" O Merlin! O Merlin! I should have thought of it a long time ago! You are Lin Xiaoan! β
Lin Xiaoan: "......" doesn't need to be so exaggerated.
The Sorting Hat excitedly said, "Oh my God! Oh, my God! Child! You're still alive! I've heard that you volunteered (Ann Lin: T_T) to be Professor Snape's apprentice! What an extraordinary bravery! What courage! For your extraordinary heart of braveryβ"
As soon as Lin Xiaoan heard the sorting hat, he began to say "brave", "courageous", and "brave...... And so on: "No, please, don't-"
β¦β¦
It's a pity...... Too late.
"Grid! Orchid! Fragrance! Many! β
The Sorting Hat used the loudest voice to shout out Lin Xiao'an's burial place!
ββ¦β¦β
The sad tears in the corners of his eyes slowly slid down Lin Xiaoan's cheeks.
