Chapter 13: Dinner II

When everyone had their fill, all the food left on the table disappeared from the plates, and the plates were as clean as ever. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After a while, the pudding and other desserts came up, and just like the food before it, they suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Ice cream comes in a variety of flavors, including apple pies, syrup cakes, chocolate muffins, jam doughnuts, wine jam puddings, strawberries, jelly, rice pudding, and countless other desserts.

Al had eaten too much staple food just now, and now he really couldn't eat it, but looking at the so much delicious food in front of him, he still took some pudding and put it on the plate.

At this point, the conversation at the dinner table shifted to their respective families.

"I'm half and half. "My dad was a Muggle, and my mom didn't tell me he was a witch until after he got married, and that scared him a lot. ”

Everyone laughed.

"What about you? Neville. Ron asked, looking at Neville.

"Oh, I was brought up by my grandmother, who was a witch. "But for so many years our family had treated me like a Muggle, and my uncle was always trying to show me some wizarding skills by taking advantage of the unpreparedness, and once he pushed me into the lake and nearly drowned me." ”

Al laughs as everyone laughs, and he realizes that Neville's uncle is a strange man, and in order to show Neville's magical talents, he actually pushed him into the lake!

But Al got a little carried away with his laughter, and he had barely laughed before his foot was stomped on.

Then, Al saw Hermione's unkind gaze. His mind instantly echoed what Hermione had said before: Don't laugh at your friends.

Al smiled wryly, and was about to explain the difference between teasing and joking, when he suddenly saw Hermione's slightly narrowed eyes, and he hurriedly closed his mouth.

Faced with Hermione's beautiful and cute face, Al chose to compromise and back down for no reason.

Ay!

Al sighed, and then secretly scolded himself for not making a sound.

Eventually, the pudding on the table was gone.

Dumbledore stood up again, and the dining room was silent.

"Oh, now that you're all well fed and drunk, I'd like to say a few more words to you, and I'd like to give you a few more notes before the semester begins. ”

"First-year students should note that the forest on campus is off-limits to students, and some of our old classmates should also remember this. ”

Al noticed that Dumbledore was saying the latter sentence as his shining gaze lingered for a moment on the faces of the Weasley twin brothers at the Gryffindor table.

Well?

With this flash of detail alone, Al's clever brain already understood that the twin brothers were definitely naughty and mischievous.

"Also, Mr. Filch, the administrator, wants me to remind everyone not to do magic in the hallway between classes. ”

"The Quidditch player review will take place in the second week of the term, so students who wish to join the House team should contact Madame Hooch. ”

"Finally, I must tell you that anyone who does not want to suffer an accident and die a painful and tragic death should not enter the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor. ”

Al looked at Percy strangely, and he asked in a low voice, "Percy, what's on the fourth floor?"

Hermione, Harry, and many others around Al were concerned about the issue, and they all looked at Percy.

Percy frowned, he looked in Dumbledore's direction, and said, "I don't know, I haven't heard about this before. It's really strange, but wherever the students are not allowed to go, he will make it clear to us prefects in advance, for example, there are many dangerous beasts in the forest, everyone knows this, but this time he didn't, he didn't reveal anything. ”

"Now, before you go to bed, let's sing the school song!" Dumbledore said aloud, and when he finished speaking, Al was surprised to find that the smiles on the faces of many of the teachers in the teacher's table suddenly froze.

Dumbledore flicked his wand, and a long ribbon of gold flew out of the wand, and lines of text twisted like a snake over the high dining table.

"Everyone chooses their favorite tune. Dumbledore said, "Ready, sing!"

All the teachers and students sang loudly:

"Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hogwarts, please give us the knowledge, whether we are old people who have lost our heads or children who have broken our knees, our minds can accept some interesting things. ”

"Because now our minds are empty, full of air, dead flies and trivialities, please give us some valuable knowledge, give us back what we have forgotten, you just do your best, leave the rest to ourselves, we will study hard until we turn into dung!"

Al moved his mouth, too embarrassed to sing.

Regardless of whether the lyrics of this school song are good or bad, just the singing, Al has already heard more than 20 tones from the surroundings, and everyone's five tones are incomplete, and the scattered voices are really not good.

No wonder the faces of several teachers have changed just now, this is really a torture!

Everyone had finished singing the song, except for the twin brothers of Gryffindor, who continued to sing to the melody of a funeral march, and Dumbledore used his wand to direct the last few bars for the two of them, and when they were finished, he took the lead in applauding, and it was he who applauded the loudest.

"Ah, the music!" Dumbledore wiped his eyes, and he said, "It's more glamorous than anything we've done here!" ”

This is the official end of the banquet.

Percy said to Al, Hermione, Harry, and the other first-year Gryffindor students, "Alright, you all come with me now, and I'll take you to the Gryffindor dormitory." ”

Al and the others followed Percy through the noisy crowd and out of the dining room before ascending the marble staircase.

On the walls of the wide corridor hung many beautiful portraits of men, women and children, some of them nodding to the new students, while others pointed and whispered to the new students.

Percy led the group up and down many stairs and through several corridors.

At this moment, the team suddenly stopped.

Just as Al thought they had arrived at the dormitory, Percy's voice came from the front.

"It's Peeves!"

Al looked over to Percy, and saw a bundle of canes floating in the air in front of them, but nothing else.

Percy whispered to the freshmen, "Peeves loves to play pranks, and if you stumble upon him on the road, you should be careful." ”
