The sickly iron fist beauty in Harry Potter

After everyone entered the hall, McGonagall said loudly, "Welcome to Hogwarts. The opening banquet will begin soon."

"But before you enter the restaurant, you need to go through a very important sorting ceremony to decide which house you will join next."

"During the years you live at Hogwarts, the college is your home. You will attend classes with other students in the college, live in the college dormitory together, and spend your spare time together in the college common room."

"The names of the four houses are: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin."

"Each house has its own glorious history and has produced outstanding witches and wizards."

"During your time at Hogwarts, your outstanding performance will earn your house extra points, while any violations will cause your house to lose points."

"At the end of the year, the house with the highest score will receive the House Cup. This is a great honor. I hope that no matter which house you are assigned to, you will bring honor to your house."

"Now, there are still a few minutes until the Sorting Ceremony begins. I suggest you tidy yourselves and make yourself more alert."

48 The 4th more appointed feeling, Ravenclaw

A few minutes seemed as long as several years to these little wizards.

Dolly and her companions were in a pretty good state, as they had been discussing the matter on the train for the entire afternoon.

But even so, Hermione was frantically reciting every spell she knew, Ron was praying for Merlin's blessing, and Neville seemed to be suffocating.

The remaining people are also in danger, and everyone is waiting for the judgment of fate.

And then, a huge army of ghosts appeared just like in the original book.

These pearly white, translucent ghosts glided across the room, whispering to each other and paying little attention to the first-year students.

Only occasionally a few elves would chat with the students, because for them, they had seen such scenes hundreds of times and there was no interest at all.

But for the students, watching the ghost appear up close, and even feeling the cold sensation of the ghost passing through their bodies, can confirm that they are really in Hogwarts.

Dolly really wanted to reach out and feel the ghosts' bodies, but the ghosts didn't pass through the area where she was.

Hermione took a rare moment to glance at Dolly, gaining a better understanding of Dolly's so-called personality change.

"Now, form a single file," Mag finally said, ending the psychological warfare. "Follow me."

A group of people haphazardly formed a straight line, but Dolly and five others insisted on staying together.

Even though they knew there was no point in getting close to each other at this time, they still did it instinctively.

They walked out of the room and across the porch, and then a pair of double doors opened, revealing a magnificent dining room.

Students from other classes in the academy were already sitting around four long tables, illuminated by thousands of candles floating in the air above the tables.

There were four tables with glittering gold plates and high-footed wine glasses. There was another long table on the table at the top of the restaurant, which was the seat for the teachers.

Professor McGonagall led the first years over there and lined them up facing the senior class, with the teachers behind them.

The candlelight flickered, and the hundreds of faces staring at them were like pale lanterns. Ghosts also mixed in among the students, flashing hazy silver light.

Dolly and Harry looked up at the same time and saw stars twinkling on the velvety black ceiling.

At this time, Hermione stood on tiptoe, put her hands on Dolly's shoulders, and whispered in Dolly's ear: "There's a spell here, it looks like the sky outside. I read about it in "Hogwarts, A History of the School"

The warm wind brushed Dolly's earlobes, adding an unnatural blush to her face.

Fortunately, there were many people here and no one could see it.

But Dolly still noticed that she attracted a lot of people's attention.

First graders are only 11 years old. In fact, most children, both boys and girls, are still difficult to describe as beautiful.

But Dolly is an exception. Even though Dolly does not take care of her appearance on purpose, her emerald green eyes are as eye-catching as gems.

Fortunately, Professor McGonagall made a new move at this time, attracting everyone's attention.

She gently placed a four-legged stool in front of the first-year student, and then placed a patched, dirty, worn, pointed wizard's hat on the stool.

This is the famous Sorting Hat.

Everyone stared at the hat, and it began to twist slowly.

A wide crack appeared on the brim of the hat, like a mouth, and began to sing a long ballad.

"You may not think I'm pretty, but don't judge a person by their appearance. If you can find a hat prettier than mine, I can eat myself."

"..."

"Come and put me on! Don't be afraid! Don't panic! In my hands, you are absolutely safe because I am a thinking magic hat!"

At this point, even if no one explained it, everyone knew what the sorting ceremony was all about.

It’s actually very simple, just put on this hat.

The audience burst into applause. As experienced seniors, they were very happy to watch this show.

Because they can see with their own eyes what different characters have come to their college.

Especially this year, there was a Boy-Who-Lived coming to Hogwarts.

"Whoever's name I call now will put on his hat, sit on the stool, and wait for sorting."

Professor McGonagall said slowly: "Hannah Abbott!"

Dolly pumped her fist violently. After hearing the name, she felt relaxed all over, as if the pressure from her fight with Snape just now had been released.

She had witnessed this scene countless times in movies and other novels, and this time it was finally her turn to witness it.

It’s a pity that her golden finger is not a famous scene sign-in system, otherwise she would get at least an SSR reward for seeing this scene.

Hermione looked at Dolly as if she were a weirdo, and Dolly didn't say much. Anyway, everything now could be explained as excitement.

A rosy-cheeked little girl with two golden braids stumbled out of the line and put on a hat that just covered her eyes.

She sat down, and after a brief pause, the hat gave its answer: "Hufflepuff!"

The long table of Hufflepuff House erupted in enthusiastic cheers. Even the Hufflepuffs, who loved to eat, were not stingy with their applause.

"Susan Burns!" "Hufflepuff!"

"Terry Boot!" "Ravenclaw!"

The Sorting Hat began its work, and at the beginning the efficiency of sorting was very high.

For the Sorting Hat, which has powerful mind-reading abilities, ordinary little wizards don't need to communicate at all.

Dolly's last name is Dursley, which starts with the letter D. She is the first of the five little ones.

Soon, McGonagall read out the name "Dolly Dursley".

Pairs of eyes all drifted over at once, with a clear difference from before.

Especially when Snape and Dumbledore also turned their attention, the pressure created by these gazes seemed tangible.

Despite this pressure, Dolly remained calm.

He took small, cheerful steps, sat down on the chair, and put on the Sorting Hat.

The reason why she was so calm was that she added the two remaining attribute points to willpower.

Dolly's willpower is now 2 points.

This willpower most likely does not refer to Dolly's self-discipline, otherwise Dolly, as a second life as a human, would definitely have more than 2 points of willpower... er, okay.

Considering Dolly's tendency to always give up, maybe her willpower is really limited.

Dolly took a deep breath and slowly put on the Sorting Hat.

Countless thoughts popped up in her mind, like a girl dazzled by the sights in a flower shop, and she was reluctant to leave each of the four colleges.

Because she wanted to have the opportunity to communicate with the Sorting Hat, so that she could rely on her own preferences to fight for the opportunity to go to the college of her choice.

However, to Dolly's surprise, her protagonist template seemed to fail at this moment.

The Sorting Hat spoke without hesitation: "Ravenclaw!"

Just like those little wizards who were seen through by the Sorting Hat in an instant, there is no difference.

49 Chapter 1 Hello, Qiu Zhang Xuejie

There was a loud clatter, and the sound of the silver cup falling to the ground was extremely crisp.

The Ravenclaw students who were about to clap their hands immediately looked in the direction of the sound.

What they didn't expect was that the person who made the sound was Snape.

Snape stood up, as if he wanted to do something, but he froze in place, and finally turned to look at Quirrell.

Quirrell stood up shakily and said, "I'm sorry, Professor Snape, I knocked over the cup."

As he said this, he took out his wand and used it to clean up. Then Snape sat down with a gloomy expression and scanned the students in the entire school.

One person vs. hundreds of people, Snape successfully suppressed everyone with his aura. Everyone quickly turned their heads back to the stage and looked at Dolly who had not yet stood up.

The students of Ravenclaw finally came to their senses and gave Dolly a warm round of applause.

A black-haired girl even waved to Dolly, but what surprised her was that Dolly did not stand up.

Dolly still had something to say to the Sorting Hat. What had just happened was completely different from what she had imagined.

She thought she would have a fight with the Sorting Hat, but in the end, under her repeated requests, the Sorting Hat sent her to Gryffindor.

This is actually not a special treatment. Similar situations have occurred before. After all, some people's personalities are not distinct enough.

Or if their personalities deviate from their own expectations, the Sorting Hat will refer to their opinions. This is a dialogue spanning thousands of years.

It is the founders of Hogwarts who use their wisdom and beautiful expectations to guide generations of young wizards.

But when it came to Dolly, she wasn't even sure where she should go, the Sorting Hat was so sure that she should go to Ravenclaw.

"Okay, little girl, go down."

"There are still many children waiting for me."

The Sorting Hat finally spoke at this time, but it was not the answer Dolly wanted.

"Wait, I have a question..."

The Sorting Hat spoke again, answering Dolly's question.

"Wisdom is never limited to magical knowledge and academic performance. Embarking on a beautiful life path is also a kind of wisdom."

"This is something that even Ravenclaw ladies haven't done, and Ravenclaw is also the most tolerant house in Hogwarts."

"Here, you don't even have to be good at magic."

Dolly wanted to say something, but Mag had already taken the hat off her head.

Mag smiled at Dolly and said, "Go, kid, your classmates are waiting for you."

Dolly could only stand up and force a formal smile.

Fortunately, in her previous life, she had worked as a salesperson in a chain fried chicken restaurant and had practiced a professional fake smile for a while, so she was more than capable of handling this kind of situation.

But when she came to Hermione, Dolly couldn't help but lip-sync to Hermione.

"I'm waiting for you."

After saying that, he immediately walked towards the Ravenclaw table.

This was all she could do, but she didn't know if she could bring Hermione with her.

In her opinion, the possibility is not high.

Because Dolly felt that it was strange that she was sorted into Ravenclaw.

The tone in which the Sorting Hat spoke to her was not like the Sorting Hat she remembered.

The most crucial evidence was the moment Snape stood up. He clearly looked beyond expectations.

On the contrary, Qi Luo's timid look, saying that he knocked over the cup, seems to be very consistent with his character.

But Dolly, who knew the entire plot of the first film, understood that Quirrell was just pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger, because he had a facehugger on the back of his head.

So who was it that influenced the Sorting Hat's will, had the motive to do such a thing, and was able to shock Snape?

After thinking about it, there is only one person.
