Chapter 15: Rest
At this time, all the teachers and students stood up, the professor had left, and the students of each house also dispersed, and the first-year freshmen were led by the prefects of each house to leave.
Unlike Hermione, who was engrossed in memorizing the journey.
Li Lin thought about how to become the eagle that ruled Ravenclaw in the next seven years of his student career, and even thought about the name of the organization in the future, just like the Order of the Phoenix founded by Dumbledore. Li Lin plans to call the organization of Ravencrowan students the Ravens.
At this point, however, the team stopped.
It turned out to be to the west of the castle, where the Ravenclaw common room and dormitory were located.
And the prefect who led them, a beautiful looking female senior sister, turned around. Look at their group of first-year freshmen. He said a welcome speech.
"Congratulations! I'm Prefect Penelope. Crivat, I am delighted to welcome you to Ravenclaw College.
Our emblem is an eagle, soaring high above the pinnacle that no one can reach; Our colors are sky blue and bronze; Our common room is located at the top of the Ravenclaw Tower, tucked away behind a door with a magic knocker. The arched windows of the circular common room offer a panoramic view of the Hogwarts campus: the Great Lake, the Forbidden Forest, the Quidditch Pitch and the Conservatory. No other college is blessed with this view.
I don't mean to be pompous, this is where the smartest witches and wizards live. Like our founder, Rowena Ravenclaw, we make learning a priority. We don't need to have hidden common room entrances like other colleges. Our common room door sits at the top of a long, curved staircase with no handles and features a enchanted eagle-shaped bronze knocker. When you knock on the door, the Eagle Ring will ask you questions, and if you can answer correctly, you will be allowed to enter. For nearly a thousand years, no one but Ravenclaw could pass through this simple barrier.
Some first-year students are afraid of Eagle Ring's questions, so don't worry. Ravenclaw is a good learner, and you'll soon learn to enjoy the challenges set by the Eagle Ring. It's not uncommon for 20 people to stand at the door of the common room, trying to answer questions for the day together. It's a great opportunity to meet Ravenclaw students from other grade levels and learn from them – but when you forget about your Quidditch suits and need to rush in and out, it's a little annoying. Therefore, I recommend that you double-check your bag before leaving Ravenclawa.
This sentence is more accurate and should be -
Ravenclaw has another cool element: our people are very egos – some would even call them quirky. But geniuses are usually at a different pace than ordinary people, unlike some academies, where we think you can wear whatever you like, believe in whatever you want, and say whatever you like. We don't resent alternative people; On the contrary, we appreciate them!
Speaking of eccentricity, you'll love our Dean, Professor Filius Flitwick. People often underestimate him because he's really small, (we think he's of elven blood, but we've never asked him rudely) and his voice is high-pitched, but he's the best and most knowledgeable spell professor alive in the world. His office door is always open to any problematic Ravenclaw, and if you're not happy, he'll let out those delicious pocket cakes hidden in a tin in your desk drawer and let them dance in front of you. Actually, you can pretend to be unhappy so that you can see the cakes dancing the cowboys, and it's really worth a try.
Ravenclaw has an illustrious history. Most of the great wizard-inventors and innovators came from our Academy, including Perpetua Fancourt, inventor of the moon mirror, Laverne de Montmorency, the great love potions pioneer, and Ignatia Wildsmith, inventor of Floo powder. Notable Ravenclaw ministers of magic include Millicent Bagnold, who happened to be in office on the night Harry Potter escaped from the Dark Lord's death curse, and defended the celebration of wizards throughout England in his own words: "I insist that the celebration is our inalienable right. ”; There's also Minister Lorcan McLaird, who is a fairly intelligent wizard, but prefers to inhale smoke from the tip of his wand to communicate with people. Of course, I said earlier that we produce eccentric people. In fact, we've also contributed to the wizarding world the jellyfish hat the weirdo Yurick, a classic punchline from many wizard jokes.
As for our relationship with the other three houses: you've most likely heard of Slytherin. They aren't all bad guys, but you should be vigilant before getting to know them. Their long-standing house tradition is to win at all costs – so keep an eye out, especially in Quidditch matches and exams.
The Gryffindors are not bad. If I have any problem with them, it's that Gryffindor is too fond of showing off. They are also much less tolerant of heterogeneity than we are; The truth is that they even joke about some of those who are interested in Ascension, or the magical properties of mountain monster eggs, or egg divination - a method of divination using eggs, as you probably already know. Curious Ravenclaw. Gryffindor doesn't have our intellectual curiosity, and for us, if you're willing to sit in the corner of the common room all night and knock eggs and record your predictions based on how the yolks landed, that's not a problem at all, and you're likely to find someone willing to help you.
As for Hufflepuffs, no one would say they weren't friendly people. They are arguably the friendliest group of people in the school. Let's just say that when it comes to competition in exams, you don't have to worry too much about them. Again, they are mostly lined up with our classes, so if there's one house that has the easiest rapencil to reap Ravenclaw friendships, it's Hufflepuff.
I guess that's all. Oh yes, the ghost of our house is Ms. Gray. Others thought she never spoke, but she would talk to Ravenclaw. She's especially useful when you're lost or can't find something.
I'm sure you're going to have a great night. Our dormitories are in the corner tower next to the main tower; Our four-legged bed was covered with a sky-blue silk quilt, and the sound of the wind blowing in front of the window was very pleasant.
I'll say it again: congratulations on being one of the smartest, most agile and funniest Hogwarts houses. ”
After these words, the freshmen applauded. Li Lin didn't have time to analyze the hidden information in the welcome speech, so he passively poured into the lounge with the excited little wizards.
Hermione had been by Li Lin's side, and it was already night, and the other little wizards were all finding their dormitories and going to rest, so Li Lin waved goodbye to Hermione and turned around and walked to his dormitory.
The boys' and girls' dormitories are connected to the common room, which means that you can meet in the common room if you have classes in the future.
Li Lin entered the men's dormitory and found that the students' name tags were posted on the doors of each dormitory, and the freshmen were naturally in the same area, Li Lin searched one by one, and there were four students' names on the doors of each dormitory, which showed that the dormitory was a four-person room.
However, when Li Lin walked to the door of the dormitory with his name written on it, he was stunned by the lonely name.
"Just me?!"
He looked back, and there were empty dormitories, and when he looked ahead, they were all dormitories full of four people, which meant that he was the one who had been extra up.
Such special treatment made Li Lin feel very uncomfortable. He even wondered if he had fallen into Dumbledore's sights.
Pushing open the door, he walked into his dormitory. The area is large, but there is only a bed, a table, and a chair, which seems a little empty.
Li Lin looked at the storage box the size of his briefcase on the bed, and reached out to take it down.
Opening the storage box, Li Lin wanted to take out the books inside. But looking at the number of books that could hold at least four large bookshelves, I still fell silent.
Although there are bookshelves in the box, Li Lin feels that he may not be able to move with his thin body, not to mention that there are so many books.
I can only put it on hold for now, and wait until tomorrow after the Charms class, and then see if education can save my bad talent.
If you really can't do it, let's wait for Godot to help.
So, Li Lin still left the book in the box, but took out other things first.
Like the cauldron, like the robe he washed, like the standard potions material in Potions class.
The most important thing is the textbooks, when the necessary textbooks for first-year freshmen were picked out from the mountains of books, Li Lin suddenly found that the reading notes given to him by his mother were not in the box.
Li Lin recalled.
That's to leave it to Hermione.
Placing the new book on the table, Li Lin found the class schedule posted on the table, and at this time he discovered a problem, Hogwarts banned the operation of electronic devices. So the electronic alarm clock he carries is useless, as for the magic alarm clock, because it comes with some mandatory functions, such as it has reached the time it has scheduled, if you don't get up yet, it will conjure up clear water and splash it on the top of your head, or directly make your quilt fly directly to your quilt.
As far as the wake-up effect is concerned, it is top-notch, and it is generally given to children by parents. But if Li Lin chooses, he will never bring such a thing to the school to suffer!
Now that I live alone and don't have an alarm clock, how can I guarantee that I will get up on time tomorrow?
Li Lin thought for a moment, then came out of the dormitory, and he knocked on the door next door.
"Hello, hello, I'm Sole Lin Lovegood, you can call me Lin."
"Well, yes, I'm just one person."
"Yes, yes. Well, thank you. ”
Then, with a satisfied smile, he returned to his dormitory.
Then tomorrow you can enjoy the human alarm clock.
