"Cockroach pile."

"Hey, man, meet again."

At the door of the principal's office, the dripping stone beast on the right greeted warmly.

"Well, Ciri, school starts today, and I want to see if there's anything I can help with at the sorting ceremony."

"Come on, man," the dripping stone beast on the left began, "Come to the principal's office as soon as you have time these days, everyone knows whose favor you want to grab." ”

"Not necessarily, Rittdu," Ricardo patted on the head, "Dumbledore may know, but the others certainly don't. ”

"Well," Ritdu pouted, "good luck anyway." ”

He walked in, and Dumbledore was standing in front of the fireplace, not knowing what to think.

"Headmaster," Ricardo said to break the silence, "is there anything I can do to help?" ”

"Oh, Ricciardo, don't be so restrained," Dumbledore reassured, "help Minerva bring the Sorting Hat to the halls, I know, you've always wanted to do this." ”

Ricardo smiled embarrassedly and changed the subject: "By the way, Headmaster, what do you think of Chino?" I don't mean to make a small report, just to remind you. ”

"Of course I know," said Dumbledore, "rest assured, I never do anything that I am not sure of. ”

"But chances are, he'll get out of your grasp." Ricardo noted.

"How about coming here to talk when you're done?" Dumbledore gestured to the stool in his office, "Maybe my old thinking needs your advice. ”

"You're serious, Headmaster," Ricardo said seriously, "I just think, let one ...... Letting Chino stay at Hogwarts requires a bottom line, and as professors, we'd better not risk students' lives. ”

"Of course, if you already have a plan, don't let me say it."

"Don't worry, Ricardo," Dumbledore said with great interest, "Come here tonight, I'd like to hear what you think." ”

……

"Are you ready, man?"

"Of course, Ricardo, the lyrics you provided are really interesting! I think it's concise and clear, and it's much better than the script I repeated to introduce the four colleges, and the tune is much lighter. ”

"Of course, but it might be a little weird for this tune to come out of your mouth......"

"What did you say, man?"

"It's nothing, by the way, you promised to stay with me for a while, right?"

"No problem, as long as you convince Dumbledore, I will tell you everything about that era, such as Godric's wand never used a wand in fights, or only used to illuminate ......"

"There's no need to be too detailed, just talk about ancient magic......"

……

Students from the four faculties were already sitting around four long tables, above which thousands of candles fluttered in the air lit up the cafeteria. Four tables were lined with glittering gold plates and goblets, and on the top of the dining room was a long table where the teachers were seated.

Professor McGonagall brought the first-year students over there and had them line up in front of the entire upper class, with the teachers behind them.

The candlelight flickered, and the ghosts mingled among the students, shimmering with a hazy silver light, and when they looked up, they saw the stars twinkling on the velvety black ceiling.

The freshmen whispered, most of them writhing restlessly, even for those of the pure-blood family, only a tall blonde girl with her hands crossed in front of her, standing there gracefully, out of step with the noise around her.

Ricardo heard a lion-headed girl whisper, "There is a spell here, and it looks like the sky outside, I read about it in Hogwarts, a school history." ”

The girl who memorizes the school history is the cutest, because she can help you prepare the speech under the national flag...... No, we're all out of the muggles, and we're not in the middle of the Celestial Empire......

Ricardo complained aimlessly, but his heart fell on a stool.

"Ricardo? Ricardo? What's going on with you? Flitwick patted him on the shoulder and asked, "You look like you're in a state of spoilt for choice, staring at our Sorting Hat?" ”

After a month of getting along, they were familiar with calling the religion by its name.

"It's all right, Filius," replied Ricardo, suddenly sobering up, "as for the reason...... Please let me keep it a little confidential. ”

"Oh, interesting," Flitwick was not a man of curiosity, "then, how many eaglets do you think Ravenclaw will greet?" ”

"There is never too little wisdom." Ricarciar replied more.

Flitwick was stunned, then laughed and smacked Ricciardo: "You're a natural Ravenclaw, Ricciardo!" ”

Ricardo's words have two meanings, one of which is that "wise" refers to intelligent people, which means that there are never too few intelligent people; The other layer of "wise man" refers to Flitwick, who tactfully dissuades him by saying that you should not be too few students.

"I'm also honored to be told by a dean that I was born in this school, which is a great encouragement."

McGonagall coughed lightly, and the room changed from the cafeteria back to the hall, silent.

The people in the restaurant were staring at the hat. Then the hat twisted, and the edge was torn open by a wide slit like a mouth—and the hat began to sing:

"Once upon a time there was a Magic Castle, and Hogwarts was amazing.

The eagle snake and badger are guided by it, hoping that the world will be a better place,

Have the courage to feel wonderful, have the ambition to gain glory,

Wisdom and integrity are also very important~

I have a good proposal,

Just agreed together,

To explore the mysteries of the world,

As soon as I saw the delicious drops,

Especially in the kitchen,

I know there's nothing I can do~

Lala Gryffindor come and run together to find the treasures of the world,

Lala La Slytherin's vision is high, to be the pride of the family,

Come to Ravenclaw, you have a brilliant brain,

Kind, loyal and hardworking, Hufflepuff is also very good~~"

"Boom-"

Ricardo pointed to the sky, and the fireworks exploded on the night-sky canopy, which turned into a smiling face.

Amid the sound of firecrackers, the Sorting Hat shouted:

"Welcome to Hogwarts! Welcome back to Hogwarts! ”

The students were shocked, then amazed, and finally applauded, and Flitwick applauded and praised loudly:

"Great melody! Wonderful welcome method! ”

Ricardo looked up at the center, and Dumbledore looked at him with a smile and blinked his right eye.

As the creator of the "Lost Staff Three-Stage Bomb" tactic, Ricciardo immediately recognized the usefulness of this spell after Dumbledore raised his staff to welcome him, and immediately searched the library to find this fireworks charm, and then used it at this time.

As for the lyrics that Pi Na wrote? Who cares?

Although, perhaps, maybe this lightness with a playful tone sings out of the Sorting Hat's husky male voice is really a bit ...... It's magical, but the beauty of the lyrics can't be stopped...... Probably......

Oh, and Professor McGonagall's crow's feet have deepened again...... If you hadn't laughed, I'd be mad at you.

In the midst of the cheers, Ricardo smiled contentedly and drew a red tick for himself in his heart.

Well, kidnap the Sorting Hat and learn about ancient magic with the first step complete!
