Hogwarts Card System.

Chapter 119 Roller Coaster
Time waits for no one, and soon the time came for the Hogwarts Express to depart.

Although Ted and Hermione also went to find the prefect and said that there were still students who had not boarded the bus.

Harry, Neville, Ron: I haven't gotten in the car yet, we haven't gotten in the car yet~
At that time, Penelope Clearwater was chatting with Ron's sister Paige in the prefect's compartment. She was not nervous when she heard this:
"Don't worry. Even if you missed the train, you can still go directly to Hogsmeade Village or Professor McGonagall's office via the Floo Network. In fact, there are always a few people who miss the train every year, so don't worry~"

Peggy also comforted him, "It's okay, mom and dad will send them over when the time comes. Maybe it'll be faster than us! After all, the express train is just fast in name~" She shrugged happily.

Ted: I'm afraid you overestimate your brothers' IQ and underestimate their ability to cause trouble!
Other people don’t have flying cars.

Ted and Hermione had no choice but to return to the carriage and continue chatting and eating snacks.

Jerry wasn't too worried: they were wizards, so this kind of thing wouldn't be a problem for them.

Soon an hour passed and there was a knock on the window glass.

Ted let Ansu in and asked, "Why did you come back so soon today? Is the weather outside bad?"

Hermione and Jerry looked out the window. The sky was clear with few clouds.

An Su tilted his head and shouted, "There's something strange in the sky! Haha~"

"Weird thing?!" Ted looked out the window curiously.

Suddenly he thought of something and leaned half of his body out of the window. The wind hit his face and blew his hair back.

Hermione quickly grabbed his clothes, fearing that he would fall out, "What are you doing? Come back quickly! It's dangerous!"

Ted tried his best to observe the sky above his head, and indeed he found a big black spot.

"Oh my god~" He stretched his hand out of the window, waved his arms vigorously, and turned a napkin into a red cloth and waved it.

Sure enough, after a few seconds the "black spot" seemed to move, but it was not clear.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Hermione and Jerry in the carriage kept asking.

Ted pulled back, "It seems like it was Mr. Weasley's flying car... It's terrible, they seem to be in the sky. It seemed like someone was waving his arms just now, but I couldn't see who it was."

Hermione's eyes widened: "It's no good for anyone!"

Jerry suddenly felt that the sausage in his mouth was no longer fragrant: They must have a way! If I had known, I would have come later~
……

Time goes back to an hour ago. It was time for the train to depart, but the three people were still at a loss on the platform.

Ron murmured, "We're late. We'll definitely get points deducted. Will we get detention?"

Harley shrugged, "I have a plan... I think we can go in this car!"

"Ah?!" Ron opened his mouth wide.

Neville was scared at that time: "You might as well let me drop out of school and go home!"

Harry persuaded, "Don't worry, we should at least try. If Dumbledore really doesn't want us, it won't be too late to go home."

When the two heard that Harley had a plan, they got a chill.

Over the past year, Harley's plans haven't worked.

How should I put it, the Harley in this world is a little wild!

Finally, three second-year wizard students who had neither a driver's license nor a pilot's license drove their flying cars to catch up with the Hogwarts Express and followed the train to Hogwarts.

The strange thing Anzu felt in the sky was the Weasley Speeder.

There was nothing unusual on the train. It rattled along until the evening, when we finally arrived at the Scottish Highlands, which was very close to Hogwarts.

At this time, the sky was beginning to get dark, and the three people in the sky had been driving for half a day and were already exhausted.

Fortunately, there was only one car in the sky and no buildings, so no traffic accidents occurred.

But the problem is, there is no perpetual motion machine in this world, not even in the magic world.

So, Mr. Weasley's car also has its limits.

After driving from morning till dusk, the car seemed to have reached its limit. It would shake a few times every one or two minutes.

Now the three people in the car are extremely nervous.

Neville almost bit his finger and wrote a suicide note on his wizard robe.

Ron was gently stroking the dashboard, trying to encourage his own car, "Come on! You can do it! Think about the roads you have walked, now it is just an insignificant section! Hang in there! For Weasley~"

Harley, on the other hand, gripped the steering wheel tightly with sweat on her forehead, looking dignified and fearless, as if she was determined to fight the speeding car to the end.

At this time, the speed of the car has dropped a lot, and it is even a little behind the train.

So when Ted and the others arrived at the school gate, Harley and the others were not there yet.

Fortunately, we are not far away and are heading in the right direction.

……

When school started, Ted and his friends were taken to the main gate of the school by a Thestral carriage and then continued into the school.

At this time, the afterglow in the west had already fallen below the mountain, and the school street lights had been lit.

They were taken to the castle hall, where a sumptuous dinner was prepared to welcome new and old students. The freshmen got off the bus earlier and took a boat, so they arrived much later.

This year's branch will soon begin.

The Sorting Hat sings a new song, and it could be a song in the works all year.

But apparently, the Big Four forgot to inject some artistic talent into their hats.

This song makes people want to start the division as soon as possible.

It seems that there are a few more freshmen this year than Ted and his classmates in the previous class.

Among Gryffindor’s members is Ginny, the youngest member of the Weasley family, and another familiar name is Colin Creevey, who is a die-hard fan of Harry Potter in the original book.

There is only one acquaintance in Ravenclaw - Luna, who has light golden hair, very fair skin, and always has a dazed look in her eyes.

Her dad is the editor-in-chief of The Quibbler.

Even niche magazines have their own fans.

After all, sometimes people are just weird, just like the idiot forums in Baidu Tieba. People just like this~
But once you accept the absurdity of this setting, you realize, hey, this is pretty absurd. I like it!

In addition to the characters in the original book, Gryffindor also accepted two subhuman students.

Chimaha, the dog-eared boy, and Caitlin, the cat-eared girl. Congratulations to Gryffindor for having both a cat and a dog~
The style of Hogwarts is gradually collapsing!
Looking at the freshmen who were so excited after being sorted into the new houses, Ted felt like he was being looked down upon by his seniors.
As the saying goes: The first graders jump high when they are hit. These little bean buns look quite interesting~
Did the seniors feel the same way about us last year?

Then Dumbledore introduced the new Dark Arts professor, Lockhart.

Although the Defense Against the Dark Arts class has always been very poor in previous years, this year's Lockhart was like a sponge squeezed out of water.

This guy is very showy, wearing a fancy dress, with a sleek haircut that reflects light, and a narcissistic face. He brags about himself all the time and promotes his own books, talking endlessly.

If Ron was here, he would definitely scold him for being such a jerk that almost bankrupted his family.

Then it was time to sing the school song. Everyone chose their favorite tune.
However, no one spoke - but everyone looked at Ted.

Ted looked confused: Why are you looking at me?
Everyone looked expectant: Ted, the whole job is depending on you!

Ted: No!

Everyone: Just sing when I ask you to. It's not nice to be shy.
No one spoke for more than ten seconds. Everyone was staring at Ted!

The baton in Dumbledore's hand froze there for a long time, and he felt very embarrassed.

There is no other way. Although there is no more mission, I still have to take on the responsibility of leading the singing of the school song.

Ted originally wanted to save his image, but now... there's no way, really no way.

Then use...the one made with Chinese cabbage.

"Hogwarts (little cabbage)~Hogwarts (the ground is yellow)~Hogwarts (two or three years old)~Hogwarts (no mother)~"

Ted opened his mouth, and a melodious child's voice began to echo in the auditorium. A strange emotion floated in the sound, lingering in everyone's heart, and as the song continued, the entire auditorium seemed to be immersed in an unspeakable sadness.

Many of the little wizards who had lost their mothers couldn't help but have tears in their eyes. They missed their mothers.

Like Luna, she just covered her mouth and shed tears silently.

Even the professors had a look of sadness on their faces, as if they saw an orphan struggling to face the world.

That kind of emotion can even make people unable to extricate themselves from it.

Among all the teachers and students present, only two were not affected.

Snape looked at Dumbledore in great surprise - this was a very high level of charm!

If it weren't for the double agent master Snape, who was used to protecting his brain at all times, he might have fallen into the trap.

Dumbledore also looked at Snape, shook his head slightly, and sang the lyrics of the school song.

Masters of Legilimency like Snape and Dumbledore can tell whether you are lying and some of the superficial thoughts in your mind just by looking into their eyes.

But Ted's singing voice actually became a kind of spellcasting medium similar to eye contact, which could greatly stimulate their emotions!
If the brain occlumency technique had not reached an extremely high level, it would be basically impossible to discover the clues.

This is a bit similar to the charm of a Veela, which is not magic but is better than magic, but not so obvious. Instead, it is this subtle influence that makes it more dangerous.

This is the special effect of the talent [Voice of Heartbeat (Red)].

In fact, Ted also tried to use this talent to develop some sound magic, sonic attacks, the ability to influence the mind or bless teammates...

By the time dinner started, many students had not yet recovered.

Some senior students looked at Ted with maternal eyes.

Hermione also held Ted's hand tightly, as if to pass on some strength to him.

Ted felt a little regretful that he shouldn't sing such a sad song on this "happy day".

It’s good to recite the King of Poetry!

It seems that my condition has improved. After being stuck for several days, I finally started writing today.
