End of exam.

It was the most unscrupulous time for the little wizards, and the OWLS exams had to be before the final exams, and while the other little wizards were preparing for the final exams, the laughter of the fifth-year little wizards filled every corner of the castle.

Sirius's idea of surfing came to fruition after all.

He took the little wizards to play happily until the end of the semester.

School Year Dinner.

Hogwarts is brightly lit, and the Great Hall is filled with yellow and black decorations.

The students were making a lot of noise.

The Year 7 wizards lit the fireworks, and this was their last time in Hogwarts, and they were led by George and Fred, and they were lively and energetic, with fireworks, pranks, and other items on the forbidden list, one after another.

But all tolerate them.

Even Professor McGonagall and Filch didn't stop it.

Dumbledore stood up slowly with a cloud of fireworks coming at him, and with a slight wave of his palm, those things that flicked the colorful tail flames melted into the ceiling, bursting into transparent and gorgeous fireworks, one of which turned into Dumbledore's smiling face, holding a large jar of cockroaches in his hand.

"Thanks to George and Fred, it's not easy to make fireworks like this." He smiled and applauded the two brothers.

George and Fred also stood up and bowed politely to Dumbledore.

He picked up the cup and tapped it with a spoon: "I can understand your feelings. ”

"Especially this year, there are Weasley brothers, but for now, I ask you to be quiet and listen to me, an old man."

The auditorium fell silent.

"I'm glad that I'll be with you for another year." Dumbledore whispered, "I saw another group of outstanding students grow up and leave Hogwarts to find their own life." ”

"This school year is a long-lost peace."

"There are no dark wizards, no evil creatures of the dark arts, and no machination."

The students burst into laughter.

Dumbledore paused for a moment to finish laughing, "Although something unpleasant happened, a man that everyone hates. ”

"But I have to say, maybe her arrival is one thing, I've never seen Hogwarts so united, not even during the time when the mystery man was raging."

He pulled out his wand and waved it gently.

In the center of the Great Hall, magic converged, and the wands of the four prefects, Harry and Cedric, trembled slightly, and golden light poured out, converging together to form the Hogwarts school crest.

"I think it's something that can be etched in the history of Hogwarts, and it should even be made into a statue and placed in the middle of the courtyard, and nothing is more important to Hogwarts."

Dumbledore drew his wand back.

There is no magic to maintain, but the school crest is still not gone, it just hangs high under the ceiling of the Great Hall - it has existed, it is, and it will always exist, Hogwarts Castle does not hold back history, but it can carve traces of history.

Godric's portrait floated out from behind Dumbledore, his eyes in mourning.

He was thinking about something, and he was lamenting something.

"Although we are united this year, at the last minute, let's take a look at the academy standings."

With a wave of his hand, the golden text appeared in front of everyone.

"First place, Hufflepuff, 467 points."

"Second place, Gryffindor, 384 points."

"Third place, Ravenclaw, 378 points."

"Fourth, Slytherin, 289 points."

Slytherin had the lowest score, Snape's face was a little unpleasant, they weren't united this year, there were fights almost every week, and the prefects were involved, Professor McGonagall broke her heart for the little snakes, and there were still more than two hundred and nearly three hundred points at the end of the school year, which was already counting her very restrained in deducting points.

Gryffindor was originally the first, but after Umbridge came, she deducted Gryffindor's points in one go, even if the follow-up professors were a little partial to Gryffindor, but Professor Snape from time to time "Potter, deduct points!" After dragging his feet, he still failed to return to the first throne.

Ravenclaw and Gryffindor have similar reasons.

The Eaglets are very independent, they don't like Umbridge, so they speak out boldly and are deducted points by Umbridge's retaliation.

The Hufflepuffs were gentle, and while Cedric and Umbridge were at arm's edge, they were the ones who deducted the fewest points.

Dumbledore looked at the score and smiled slightly, "I'm afraid I have something to say before the rankings are officially determined." ”

The Hufflepuffs chuckled inwardly.

Bad memories and the horror of being ruled by Harry and Dumbledore loomed over me again.

"This year, the castle is coveted by some ill-intentioned people." Dumbledore smiled and continued, "But I'm glad that you have done so much to protect your own rights. ”

"First of all, Mr. Harry Potter."

"Let us thank him for his leadership, so that Hogwarts can unite as one, and the four houses can be united into one."

There was a boo at the Slytherin table.

Someone was insulting Draco Malfoy.

"Let's add a hundred points to Harry Potter!"

There was a bit of a commotion at the Hufflepuff long table, plus this percent, Hufflepuff was not the first, they looked at Cedric, their eyes were unwilling, this was the last year that Hufflepuff they admired the most stayed in the castle.

Dumbledore continued, "Of course, we also have to add a hundred points to Gryffindor who responded positively to Mr. Potter. ”

Even Professor McGonagall's face turned ugly.

Too partial to Gryffindor?

The House Cup isn't that important.

The Hufflepuff table was getting louder.

Dumbledore took a deep breath and waited for them to make a fuss before speaking, "Then is Mr. Diggory." ”

The Hufflepuffs froze and looked up at him.

"I don't like some of the talk out there." Dumbledore shook his head, "In my heart, Hufflepuff is a great house, as great as Gryffindor, loyal, resilient, fearless, and Mr. Diggory embodies all the Hufflepuff virtues that are supposed to be. ”

"I'm really happy."

Godric couldn't help but interject: "Helga likes students like you very much, damn it, if it weren't for that Voldemort, you would definitely be the heir to Hufflepuff." ”

Cedric stood up, raised his hand, clenched it into a fist, and pressed it against his chest, with a holy expression and a solemn tone: "I am already the heir of Hufflepuff." ”

Godric was stunned.

Different body types, different heights, different genders

But it was as if I had crossed a thousand years and seen Helga Hufflepuff again.

Those material inheritances are never important, what matters is the spirit, which will never be erased in the inheritance from generation to generation.

"Yes, Mr. Diggory is already Hufflepuff's heir, and Hogwarts acknowledges it." Dumbledore raised his hand and nudged his glasses lightly, "Let's cheer for such a good Hufflepuff, and then add a hundred points to our dear Mr. Cedric!" ”

"Of course, the Hufflepuff who responds positively is no exception, courage and faith are not only 100 points, but I don't favor anyone, Hufflepuff also adds 100 points!"

Dumbledore looked at Ravenclaw.

"Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest glory of mankind."

"This is not to say that you are good at learning and bravely doing the right thing at the right time, even if there is an obstacle, this is also extraordinary wisdom."

"Let's add a hundred points to Ravenclaw's prefect Goldstein, who, under his leadership, insisted on his own wisdom."

"And, add a hundred points to Ravenclaw!"

He looked at Slytherin one last time, his eyes were complicated, and after a long silence, he slowly spoke: "Draco Malfoy, you may be the most special prefect since the founding of Hogwarts. ”

As a prefect, he is not recognized by the students of his own house.

But he can represent Slytherin.

"I can't tell you anything, whether it's at Hogwarts or in life, you make the hardest choice yourself, of course, I'm willing"

Draco Malfoy stood up, raised his head in arrogance, and bowed to the Headmaster meticulously, "Thank you, dear Professor Dumbledore, but I have made my choice. ”

He straightened up, pointing at his chest.

Silvery-green badge with shimmering sheen.

"Slytherin is always like this, assert yourself." Dumbledore sighed, "But as a headmaster, I still have to praise your performance, as a prefect you are excellent, as a student of Hogwarts, you are also excellent." ”

"Let me be a little biased now, and add two hundred points to Mr. Draco Malfoy, and the students who have been united by Mr. Draco!"

With that, he looked away, no longer adding points to Slytherin.

He took a sip of pumpkin juice, looked at Hufflepuff, and smiled, "Is Hufflepuff scared by me?" ”

"Yes!" The little badgers answered in unison and simply.

Dumbledore laughed heartily.

"Let's congratulate Hufflepuff on winning this year's House Cup!" He held the golden cup aloft.

Gryffindor's seven-year life was a bit of a loss.

However, when I think about it, this year's competition is Cedric, who has been recognized by Mr. Gryffindor himself as an excellent student who is qualified to be the heir to Hufflepuff - the heir of Gryffindor is in the fifth year and did not get the House Cup, and it is difficult for them to put the blame on Harry.

All this is because he has no ability in these seven-year years and can't compete with Cedric.

George and Fred happily pulled out the fireworks.

Then, it exploded in the auditorium, and a lively, silly little badger crawled on the ceiling.

"We're not that cute!" Some of the badgers were dissatisfied, "We are fierce!" ”

"That's it, that's it!"

It's lively and cheerful - except at the Slytherin table.
