The train slowed down and finally stopped. People pushed and shoved and rushed to the car doors. Harry held Sally's hand tightly, fearing that the crowd would break them up (which is not impossible given the crowd of people). ）

Finally getting out of the car, the cold of the night made Sally shiver slightly, and she missed the heating in the cubicle a little. At that moment, a lamp flickered over the students' heads, and she heard a voice like thunder, "First-year students, come over here, Harry, come over here, how are you?"

Harry squeezed Sally to Hagrid's side. "I'm fine, Hagrid, it's my sister Sally. ”

Hagrid glanced at Sally, then blinked. "Of course, I can recognize it. ”

They stumbled down an extremely slippery and narrow path after Hagrid. On two occasions, Sally felt like she was on the verge of falling, but Harry was able to keep her by the hand so that she wouldn't make a fool of herself. Finally, she heard Hagrid say, "Blame this corner, you're about to see Hogwarts for the first time." ”

This was followed by a loud "Oh!"

Sally couldn't help but sigh, on the other side of the black lake, there was a towering castle standing on a high hillside, was that Hogwarts?

"No more than four people per boat!" Hagrid said.

Harry's movements were a little slower as he was pulling Sally, and he saw Ron waving at him from a boat, and he prepared to walk over. But before he could get there, he saw Hermione and Neville already on the boat.

"Hey, there's Harry and his sister here. Ron exclaimed.

"Their names aren't written here, and we came up first, are you going to let us go down?" Hermione said, looking up proudly.

"Are you all on the boat? Why are there any who haven't been on the boat, hurry up, we're going to be late." Hagrid made a boat of his own and said loudly.

Sally saw that there were only three people on a nearby boat, so he pulled Harry's hand and motioned for her to take the boat. Harry looked at Hermione and Neville, and had no choice but to let go.

Sally walked to the boat behind her, and there were three people on board, one of whom was so thin that his pale face could be seen even in the dark, and the other two were extremely stocky. Sally politely asked, "Is there one person left on this ship?"

"You can come up. Miss. The skinny boy said. Then he got up and gave way to her gentlemanly and gracefully. As soon as Sally boarded the ship, the team set off.

A pair of small boats immediately rowed across the mirror-like lake. No one spoke, everyone looked at the huge contract of the high people and clouds, and everyone thought about their own business.

When the boat reached the shore, they climbed the stone steps and came to a huge door. Hagrid knocked on the door three times with his huge fist.

The door immediately opened, and a tall dark-haired witch in an emerald green robe stood in front of it. She slammed the door open, and Harry was back to Sally, who smiled at her.

Sally smiled back, and the two walked into a small empty room together, and everyone rushed in.

The room was indeed small, and everyone was huddled together, and everyone was nervous and careful to stare at everything around them.

"Welcome to Hogwarts. Professor McGonagall then explained to each student the Sorting Ceremony and the House Cup, and then she left with a blank face, not saying how she was going to be sorted, let alone what to prepare.

Sally had also asked Mrs. Weasley about the Sorting House, and Mrs. Weasley just smiled and said not to be nervous, and she asked if she needed to prepare some skills, like an interview. She laughed and said no.

"I think you're going to Gryffindor," Mrs. Weasley said with a smile, "our whole family is Gryffindor, so family genetics is actually very important, and your parents, both of whom graduated from Gryffindor, are undoubtedly the best." ”

"Don't say that, Molly. Mr. Weasley, who was reading the newspaper in a chair next to him, said, and then he said to Sally, "You don't need to be nervous, you will be fairly parted from the house you should go to, as for the heredity, it's just because parents are such people, so the children they teach will have their qualities in some way, and they are deeply ingrained, but I have seen many families of three who graduated from different Hogwarts houses." It doesn't really matter which college you are in, what matters is whether you can stick to yourself, Sally. ”

When Sally thought of this, she felt a lot better. They didn't have to wait long for Professor McGonagall to return.

"Now, in a single row," Professor McGonagall said to them, "follow me." ”

Sally walked behind Harry, she keenly felt that her brother's legs were a little heavy, and the way he walked was a little strange, she wanted to ask, but there were ghosts and classmates everywhere, she hesitated, and finally did not speak.

Professor McGonagall placed a topped wizard's hat on the four-legged stool, which was extremely worn and dirty. Sally was lighting the hat, and the whole restaurant was silent, when suddenly, a crack cracked in the hat, and then a song was sung.

The song was good, but it was soon finished, and Professor McGonagall took a roll of parchment and began to read the names of the freshmen, and whoever said the name would go up and let the hat check your head.

Sally's nervous hands were sweating, she didn't know what she was nervous about, she didn't feel like Harry had to fight, she didn't have to go to Gryffindor like Ron, but she was nervous. She felt that her mind was blank now, and she was afraid that the Sorting Hat would not be able to read anything, so how could that be good.

There were fewer and fewer people, and at last it was just her, Harry, Ron, and an unrecognized, proud-looking boy.

Will she be forgotten, will she be mistaken? She went from a blank mind to a cranky one.

"Harry Potter. Professor McGonagall shouted, and Harry walked forward, and Sally felt the atmosphere change underneath, and she couldn't help but quietly turn her head to look behind her, only to see everyone muttering to everyone underground, and some even stood up to see him.

Once again, Sally felt that she had underestimated Harry's popularity.

The Sorting Hat hesitated for a long time, longer than the others, before finally it exclaimed, "Gryffindor." ”

Sally didn't have to turn her head to hear the loudest cheers from the table, Gryffindor's table, Harry trotting past her, hoping he would give her a look, but apparently her brother was frightened and ran to Gryffindor's seat and sat down.

Then Ron, the undoubted Gryffindor, made Sally think she might be a Gryffindor too, and then the haughty-looking boy, Blaise, was sorted into Slytherin. This made Sally think that Slytherin might be a good choice, as long as she could get in.

"Sally Potter. Professor McGonagall shouted, and the Great Hall was quiet again, and Sally, with her already stiff legs, stepped over to the stool and put on her hat, where she keenly saw Harry in the crowd, and then the hat covered her eyes.

She heard a voice ringing in her ears. "Another problem, do you have any colleges that you really want to go to? Oh, you don't, magical, so I'll see, um... It's a problem, IMHO Gryffindor may not be that good for you, you have courage, there's no doubt about it, but your courage only shows itself under certain circumstances. Well, I trust my judgment, after all, I never made a mistake, then. ”

"Slytherin. The Sorting Hat's voice was loud.
