The sickly iron fist beauty in Harry Potter

Hermione didn't speak loudly or even disrespectfully.

But while speaking, Hermione kept staring at Dolly and didn't even look at Anthony, which obviously made Anthony feel offended.

But everyone was very happy. Anthony didn't say much and moved a little to the outside.

It wasn't until Hermione sat down and turned to thank him that Anthony's expression looked better.

Seeing this scene, Dolly understood that if Hermione wanted to let go of her proud character, she would have to suffer some setbacks.

But this also means that the proud little Hermione has entered the limited countdown, and Dolly must cherish her.

So before Hermione could speak, Dolly had already opened her arms and said to Hermione in a soft voice, "To celebrate our long-awaited reunion, won't you give me a hug?"

"Reunion after a long separation?"

"We've only been apart for ten minutes!"

Hermione was still a little dissatisfied, but was amused by Dolly's next words: "But this is the longest time we have been apart today, isn't it?"

"Hmph... Let's celebrate the fact that we're in the same academy. Prayer really does work!"

Hermione also lazily opened her arms, and Dolly hugged her as she wished, holding Hermione's neck with one hand and Hermione's waist with the other.

Their cheeks came close together and rubbed gently, and the gentle touch made Dolly smile even more happily.

This scene also attracted a lot of people's attention. After all, when three cute girls gathered together, their attraction naturally increased exponentially.

However, Hermione immediately let go of Dolly and turned to look at Qiu Zhang. She took the initiative and generously extended her hand: "I'm Hermione Granger, just call me Hermione from now on."

"I'm Qiu Zhang, you can just call me Qiu."

"With that name, are you Asian?"

"Yes."

"Then do you know Chinese Kung Fu?"

"puff……"

Dolly couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Hermione's words weren't completely unreasonable, but they were indeed a rather stereotypical impression. At that time, the most popular Eastern films were martial arts action films.

However, Qiu Zhang's answer surprised Duoli even more: "I learned Tai Chi from my grandfather, but I don't have any ability to fight with fists and feet."

"Compared to Dolly, I'm far behind."

Dolly looked at Qiu Zhang in surprise, because whether Qiu Zhang was from the Eastern power was actually an unknown.

Because Qiu Zhang's name in the book is Cho Chang, the word Qiu is just a transliteration, and Cho can actually be found in the pronunciation of Japanese, Korean and even Southeast Asian languages.

But now Qiu Zhang's ancestral home seems to be certain.

Just when Dolly wanted to ask another question, Hermione took Dolly's hand and pulled her back, saying, "I thought you wanted to learn Chinese Kung Fu from her."

This sentence was just a seemingly meaningless complaint, but Dolly seemed to smell a sour taste.

Since Dolly is not looking for Qiu Zhang to learn Chinese Kung Fu, does that mean that Dolly really wants to make friends with Qiu Zhang?

This immediately made Hermione feel a sense of crisis.

Hermione wasn't surprised at all that Dolly had made friends.

During a ride on the Hogwarts Express, not only Ron and Neville became Dolly's friends, but even Slytherin's prefect Farley became Dolly's acquaintance.

If Dolly went to Slytherin, she would probably become friends with the prefect who was five or six years older than her in a few days.

But what about Hermione Granger?

In addition to being confident in her studies, she is also confident that she can do a great job in making friends.

After all, Hermione is used to using pride as a protective color, and it is difficult for such a proud person to make friends.

Now she desperately needs Dolly's comfort.

And how could Dolly possibly make Hermione truly angry?

Although Qiu Zhang is a beautiful and kind-hearted elder sister who helps Dolly to be familiar with the national atmosphere, Hermione is Dolly's little cotton-padded jacket!

So Duoli said, "Qiu Zhang is the one who helped us, and she is also very good at studying."

"With her guidance, you will definitely get better grades. If I can't keep up, I'll have to rely on you to help me with my homework."

Hearing this, Hermione straightened her back proudly.

Qiu Zhang was also a considerate person, and he immediately said, "Although the questions in each exam are different, there are some tips I can teach you."

This brought a smile to Hermione's tense face, and her eyes looking at Qiu Zhang became more sincere.

The few of them didn't talk much more because the sorting ceremony was still going on.

First it was Neville. After he was sorted into Gryffindor, he himself was filled with disbelief.

Next came the name Potter, whose name starts with the letter P. When the name Harry Potter was heard, the whole hall was filled with heated discussions.

The boy who lived, the famous Harry Potter, is really not just talk.

However, Harry looked in Dolly's direction with a slightly resentful look.

He was so nervous that his heart almost jumped out of his chest, and he really wanted to get even a glance of encouragement.

However, from beginning to end, his sister never looked at him.

It turns out that the affection between siblings cannot compare to the smile of a new girl they meet?

Even Hermione noticed the resentment. She laughed and said, "Do you think Harry will come over too? What will he say to you if he comes?"

"No, he certainly can't come."

Dolly said firmly, "Just based on how fearless he was when he confronted Malfoy today, it would be absurd for him not to go to Gryffindor."

Sure enough, not long after, the Sorting Hat called out "Gryffindor".

The entire Gryffindor College immediately turned into a sea of joy.

The red-haired twins jumped up excitedly and shouted, "We have Potter!"

Harry then walked towards the Gryffindor seat with a sense of relief. He wanted to seek some comfort from his sister again, but was immediately overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the people around him.

At this moment, Harry felt that it was a good thing that he was not assigned to the same group as his sister.

At least when Dolly was here, he certainly wouldn't have dared to enjoy so much applause at ease.

52 No. 1 More Enviable Physique

There were not many people left after Harry, and the Sorting Ceremony soon officially ended.

Dolly, who was already familiar with Qiu Zhang, listened to Qiu Zhang introduce some basic common sense.

For example, food will appear from the dinner plate in a while, and the house-elves are responsible for providing food to everyone.

Hermione was also comforted by Dolly and felt a little happier. After all, she was just worried that her friend was taken away and she felt a little emotional.

Seeing that Dolly was willing to hug her eagerly, while Qiu Zhang could only get a handshake, she naturally had nothing to worry about.

Dumbledore stood up at this time, tapped the cup lightly with a spoon, and after a crisp and pleasant collision sound, began to tell his crazy jokes.

"Welcome everyone to Hogwarts to start a new school year! Before the banquet begins, I want to say a few words. They are: Idiot! Crybaby! Scum! Screw!

"thank you all!"

After he finished speaking, he sat down and the students applauded, although few of them understood what he said.

Hermione was also stunned, frowning, trying to think of a solution, but then gave up.

Turning to Dolly, he said, "What the hell is he talking about?"

However, looking at her expression, Dolly knew that what she actually wanted to ask was why our principal was like this?

Isn’t he the greatest white wizard, the one that even Voldemort feared, a legend who lived for over a hundred years?

In her previous life, Dolly did not understand the meaning of these four words at all. It was only after reading other people’s explanations that she finally had a rough idea of what they meant.

These four words actually represent the mentality of students from the four colleges when they look at others.

Idiots, naturally referring to Ravenclaw, look at other people and think they are all idiots.

The crybaby naturally refers to the Gryffindors. Such brave Gryffindors must think that other houses are a bunch of crybaby cowards.

The dregs, of course, refer to the Slytherins. With their arrogant pure-blood mentality, they regard half-blood and Muggle-born wizards as scum.

As for the word "twist", it is a bit difficult to understand. It would be more appropriate to translate it as "adjust".

This refers to the remaining Hufflepuffs. As good guys, they can often become mediators between the other three colleges.

Of course, Dolly knew it but she wouldn't say anything.

He even exaggerated, saying, "In fact, Dumbledore came to see me when I was seriously ill. Maybe he thought I was going to die."

Dolly's words made Hermione's heart hang in the air immediately, and she subconsciously grabbed Dolly's wrist.

Qiu Zhang also looked at Dolly in surprise, realizing how seriously ill Dolly had been before.

The concern in his eyes was genuine.

Dolly smiled and said that she was fine. She said, "You don't know, at that time Dumbledore appeared in a Muggle hospital wearing wizard robes."

"I was so scared that I rang the alarm bell, and then Dumbledore was frightened by the crowd rushing over and disappeared."

"I even thought I was hallucinating. How could someone like Dumbledore appear?"

"Later I realized it was the principal who came to visit me."

Dolly finished speaking and saw that the two men, apart from being concerned, didn't really understand her.

Then he added: "So maybe it's just that we don't understand him. After all, he was born in the 19th century."

“Can you imagine communicating seamlessly with Charles Dickens, Oscar Wilde, and others?”

"Besides, he's a wizard."

Hermione showed a relieved expression. It was not that she couldn't keep up, but simply that Dumbledore was too old-fashioned.

Qiu Zhang also added, "Actually, the principal is a very kind person. Perhaps it's just because of the huge age gap that there are some things we can't understand each other."

The three were chatting when the food finally appeared.

Everyone's plate was filled with food: roast beef, roast chicken, pork chops, lamb chops, sausages, steak, boiled potatoes, roast potatoes, chips, Yorkshire puddings, pea shoots, carrots, gravy, ketchup, and, for some odd reason, mint candies.

There is no doubt that in the food desert of Britain - perhaps the word desert is a bit of an insult - this is already an absolute feast.

Although there are a wide variety of ingredients, the cooking techniques are actually very monotonous. Basically, there are only roasting and boiling. Frying is very rare in Hogwarts.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that these dishes are bad.

After all, it is produced by house-elves, and the processing and cooking of the raw materials are just right. Every bite is full of the fragrance of meat and fat, which makes people unable to stop eating.

At first, everyone ate like crazy, even Qiu Zhang was no exception.

After all, this is the opening dinner of the school year, and Hogwarts doesn't usually have such luxurious meals, otherwise the school funding would not be able to sustain itself.

But after a few minutes of eating, Qiu Zhang and Hermione slowed down, purely because the meat was too filling.

But Dolly was different. Not only did she not show any signs of slowing down, she started to speed up instead.

With lamb chops in one hand and pudding in the other, his eyes were fixed on the pea sprouts - this was a habit brought over from the previous life, a desire for green vegetables.

This made Qiu Zhang stunned, and he even wanted to stop Dolly, fearing that Dolly would hurt her stomach.

After all, Dolly is so small and weighs even less than Hermione, but she eats more than the average boy.

"Don't worry, she's fine."

Hermione, however, smiled knowingly and said, "She has lost a lot of weight due to her serious illness and is in urgent need of nutrition. She seems to be unable to gain weight no matter how much she eats."

"If she didn't eat so much, I'd be worried she'd lose weight even more and be blown away by the wind."

Qiu Zhang felt relieved and continued chatting with Hermione. At Hermione's request, he also introduced the courses they were going to study.

As Dolly listened, she also looked towards the faculty and staff seats following Qiu Zhang's introduction, but she was secretly looking at a few people.

One is naturally Dumbledore.

Dolly always felt that her sorting ceremony was not normal. Of course, she had no evidence for this, and she was not dissatisfied with the result. As long as she was with Hermione, it was fine.
