79, Sorting Hat

Quirrell fell to the ground and passed out, unable to escape again, but he wasn't the crux of the matter, it was Voldemort.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, I suggest finding Voldemort's whereabouts first." Luo Xiudao.

Dumbledore nodded, then pointed his wand at Quirrell's head.

The turban wrapped around his head was instantly removed, revealing his large head.

It's not pretty, it's actually a bit disgusting.

The back of Quirrell's head was strangely swollen like a blue-gray mushroom, damp with pus, and emitting a pungent stench.

"Oh, that's disgusting, what's wrong with Quirrell's head? Is it flooded? Hagrid grinched, pinching his nose.

Dumbledore shook his head, "No, there was something parasitic here before. ”

As soon as he heard this, Hagrid suddenly realized: "That's right, I did hear Voldemort's voice just now, could it be that Voldemort was parasitic on Quirrell's head?" That's why Quirrell keeps wearing this big scarf? ”

"It looks like this." Dumbledore nodded.

For all this, Luo Xiu was not surprised, he had long known that Voldemort was parasitic on the back of Quirrell's head, turning Quirrell into a terrifying "two-faced man".

Now that Voldemort was gone, he must have escaped quickly before the Avada Curse hit Quirrell.

"Damn, you actually let him run away." Luo Xiu was rather depressed, then looked at Dumbledore and asked, "Headmaster, do we still have a chance to catch him?" ”

Dumbledore shook his head helplessly: "There is not much hope, there are too many creatures in the Forbidden Forest, he can possess any kind of mammal, and trying to catch him here is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack." ”

"That's a shame." Luo Xiu sighed.

"Don't say that, you've minimized the disaster Voldemort has wrought." Dumbledore said gratefully.

Hagrid also nodded: "That's right, I'll be patrolling the Forbidden Forest in this armor from now on, and once I meet this bad guy, I'll blast him to hell with one shot!" ”

"Let's deal with Quirrell first." Dumbledore waved his wand, and the vines around him immediately spread over and tied Quirrell firmly.

The wheelbarrow that had previously transported anti-magic armor came in handy, just in time to transport Quirrell.

After locking the fainting Quirrell in Hagrid's cabin, Dumbledore solemnly walked up to Rosho and extended his hand to Rothew.

"I, Albus Dumbledore, in my capacity as Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, cordially invite you, Rosho, to join Hogwarts."

Dumbledore did what he said, and since he promised Luo Xiu, he did not regret it.

At the same time, a hint came to Luo Xiu's mind.

"Congratulations to the host for completing Side Quest 3: Joining Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Rewards: 200 universal XP points, a random buff for one week. ”

"Random Buff Selected: Increases Memory by 50%."

"Side quest 4 released: Answer all the questions correctly in any of the exams. Reward: 200 universal XP points, a random buff for one week. ”

Looking at Dumbledore, Rosho smiled heartily, "Thank you, Headmaster, it's an honor to be able to enter Hogwarts to study magic. ”

Dumbledore smiled and pointed to Hogwarts Castle in the distance: "Let's go, my new student, I'll give you a sorting ceremony tonight." Hagrid, come along, there's got to be a guest, don't you? ”

"Okay, of course I'll come along." Hagrid said happily, and he strode after Rosho towards the castle.

——————

Following Dumbledore, Rosho cautiously walked up the steps of Hogwarts.

In fact, he should have come here a long time ago, but unfortunately fate confiscated his admission letter.

Pushing open the grand gate, there is a spacious and bright foyer in front of you, and the stone walls on both sides are filled with blazing torches, illuminating the castle in splendor.

"Let's go, kid, go ahead."

Dumbledore beckoned to Rosho and led him towards the dining room.

The Sorting Hat had been waiting in the cafeteria for a long time, and this was the first time it had appeared alone for a student.

Hagrid followed, gazing fondly at the bricks and tiles of the castle - despite his expulsion from Hogwarts, he still had an unforgettable affection for the place.

Soon, they came to the splendid restaurant, the spacious venue and elegant decoration, which made Luo Xiu couldn't help but admire.

"What a wonderful place, so spectacular, so beautiful!"

"It's a nice place to be." Dumbledore said with a smile, then gestured not far away.

"Go, kid, the Sorting Hat has been waiting for a long time."

Luo Xiu looked up and finally saw the sorting hat.

It was an old, dirty, patched peaked wizard hat that seemed to have just been picked up from the trash, and when Luo Xiu walked up to it, the wizard hat immediately moved.

"Oh, you're finally here, I'm going to see which noble boy is actually going to let me run alone!"

The Sorting Hat was curious about Rosho.

Luo Xiu was not surprised to hear the Sorting Hat speak, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry, respected Senior of the Sorting Hat, I disturbed your rest." ”

"Oh, a polite little fellow, well, my first impression of you wasn't bad." The Sorting Hat said kindly, "Now, put me on." ”

Dumbledore, who was standing not far away, also nodded and urged: "Put on the Sorting Hat, Xiu." ”

Luo Xiu respectfully picked up the sorting hat and buckled it on his head - this hat was indeed not small, and when it was fastened on his head, it directly engulfed Luo Xiu's entire head and covered half of his eyes.

"Oh! You are ......"

The moment he put on the Sorting Hat, Luo Xiu heard the Sorting Hat exclaim in a low voice.

"I'm ...... What the? Luo Xiu asked curiously, shouldn't this sorting hat see that he is a traverser?

At this time, I only heard the Sorting Hat continue, "...... You are a young man with talent and perseverance, and you will build a career, and your future is limitless......"

Hearing this, Luo Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, and sure enough, these were these meaningless compliments.

"So, I'm going to make a decision, young man, do you have any wishes of your own?" The Sorting Hat asked in a low voice.

Luo Xiu shook his head: "It's all about learning knowledge, and it's the same in any academy." ”

"In that case......," the Sorting Hat whispered, then immediately raised his voice and shouted, "Slytherin!" ”

"What?!"

Hearing this, Hagrid was very shocked, among the four houses, what he hated the most was Slytherin, but he didn't expect Rosho to be sorted into Slytherin!

"Hey! Isn't it said that Slytherin only recruits descendants of pure-blood wizards? Xiu was obviously from Muggle background, why was he sorted into Slytherin? Hagrid asked aloud, he really didn't want Rosho to be part of Slytherin.

Dumbledore looked at Hagrid with a smile, "Alright, Hagrid, don't dwell on this kind of thing, the Sorting Hat has his own judgment. In addition, the current Slytherin is no longer the Slytherin of the original, and the descendants of pure-blood wizards are no longer a requirement for admission to this house, and I think that under the teaching of Snape (the head of the Slytherin Academy), this child will become a very good wizard. ”
