Chapter 25: Roommates
"In short, there are so many things to pay attention to, as long as everyone pays more attention to them, they will not be deducted from the academy points.
But even if you are occasionally negligent and get deducted points, we Hufflepuffs don't value that, as long as everyone is happy at Hogwarts. ”
Prefect Harris chatted in the crowd, while Kyle sat on the outermost side, his head bowed without saying a word.
"Kyle, why are you here, I've been looking for you for a long time."
At this time, Cedric walked over, handed him a glass of juice and said, "Fresh orange juice, a glass before going to bed is definitely a good choice." ”
Kyle didn't answer, didn't even lift his head, just waved his hand at Cedric, indicating that he didn't need to.
"What's wrong with you, not feeling well?"
"No, I just feel a little sleepy." Kyle still didn't look up, and said in a slightly hurried tone, "And I don't like to drink before I go to bed, so you can take it and ask the others." ”
This unusual behavior naturally aroused Cedric's curiosity, and he tentatively took two steps to the left, only to find that Kyle had turned in the opposite direction almost at the same time.
Something is wrong, 12 points out of 12 is wrong.
"Okay, then I'll ask the other freshmen." Cedric walked briskly to the side, then held his breath, put his steps to the lightest, and circled in front of Kyle again, estimating his position, and quickly lay down on the ground.
Kyle was still thinking about when he would be able to go back to his dorm room when a hairy head popped up in front of him.
The two looked at each other......
"Kyle, what's wrong with your eyes, why do you have such a big dark circle."
"Nothing!"
Kyle quickly raised his hand to cover the position of his left eye, and said solemnly, "I accidentally bumped into the table just now, and it's normal to be bruised and purple." ”
"Can a fall be that round?" Cedric sat on the ground, touched his chin and said, "It looks like he's been punched." ”
"No way, you're thinking too much!" Kyle said solemnly, "Even if you don't believe me, don't you believe in Hufflepuff?" This is the warmest big family in the whole of Hogwarts, how can there be such a violent person. ”
"That's right, is it really a fall?" Cedric nodded approvingly.
He also didn't believe that Hufflepuffs would beat up new students on the first day of school, as that usually only happens in Slytherin.
But he still doesn't understand, if it really falls, how can the "black circles" be so round.
Talented?
Just when Cedric was puzzled, Prefect Harris's side was just over.
"From today onwards, we will be classmates, so if there is anything we need help with, just say it, and don't feel embarrassed.
Hufflepuff is a warm family, including me, and every senior will help you.
You should be sleepy now, now I'll take you to your respective dorms, Patty, you take care of the girls' side. ”
Kyle quickly got up from the couch and followed behind the group. He didn't even say hello to Cedric before leaving.
Led by Harris, Kyle soon arrives in his dorm room.
As in the common room, the main colors here are yellow and black.
The brass lamp casts a warm light on the four-poster bed in the dormitory, and a copper bed warmer hangs on the wall, which keeps the little wizard's bed at the most comfortable temperature at all times.
There were two other people in the same dormitory as him.
Mikel Drake is a skinny brunette boy.
The other is blonde and relatively muscular, called Ryan Baggins.
Well, both are unknown passers-by.
As for the remaining bed, it is empty, so I guess there are not enough new students.
Kyle tilted his head sideways, said hello to the two of them briefly, and climbed into bed.
"Hey, that's amazing, isn't it, I'm a wizard." Mikel sat on the edge of the bed and said excitedly: "Our family doesn't know magic, my dad sells drilling rigs, and my mom works in a bank, so when I thought the letter was just a prank, I didn't expect it to be true."
Haha, Hogwarts...... I still think I'm dreaming. ”
"I'm half and half, what wizards often call a half-blood."
Ryan, who has blond hair, chimed in, "My dad is a wizard and my mom is a Muggle, and she's scared enough when she finds out the truth. ”
"Of course, anyone who hasn't been exposed to magic is like that." "You might not have imagined that my parents almost called the police when the professor named Quirrell showed up at our house," Mikel said.
He was just like that, and all of a sudden, he was standing in front of us, and he said what was that called...... Move? ”
"Apparitions." Kyle whispered a reminder from the side.
"Yes, that's right, it's the apparition."
Mikel looked over and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "Hey, I remember you, you're the Kyle Chopper who finished the sorting in twenty minutes, right?" ”
"That's right, nice to meet you." Kyle replied.
"Well, can you tell us what's going on?" Mikel asked curiously, "Why is your sorting time so long, twenty minutes, longer than all the freshmen combined." ”
"It's nothing." Kyle thought for a moment and said, "It's just that the Sorting Hat is always struggling with where to divide me, and he hasn't made up his mind." ”
"I see." Mikel sighed: "You must be excellent to make that hat think about it for so long." ”
Kyle just smiled and didn't speak.
He's good, that's for sure, but the Sorting Hat doesn't matter.
And if Mikel had known the real reason for the Sorting Hat's struggle, he probably wouldn't have said that.
For the next period of time, Mikel kept talking as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.
From Diagon Alley to Gringotts, and from Gringotts to picking wands, there was no pause in between.
It seems that being a wizard does make him very happy.
At first, Kyle and Ryan could still talk a few words, but gradually, only Mikel's voice remained in the dorm room.
I can't help it, I can't stand it.
I was sleepy when I was full, and I took the train for more than ten hours before, so it was not easy to hold on to it until now.
Kyle also wants to talk to his roommate to strengthen his friendship or something, but the bed is so comfortable that he falls into a deep sleep before he knows it.
Ryan next to him slept faster, and there was no movement five minutes ago.
