Hogwarts: Nagini captured at the start

Chapter 17 The Idiot Cries and Twists the Residue

"Great! We've been assigned to the same college! We can go to classes, eat together, and do homework together!"

Ron said excitedly after taking his seat.

"Are you sure you want to do homework together?" Robin asked, raising an eyebrow.

Ron is very smart; he can learn many things quickly, but only if he actually learns them!

"Well, occasionally. Sometimes I have to take a cue, Robin, you know, the thought of homework gives me a headache!"

"No, I don't know!"

Ron opened his mouth, still wanting to continue persuading and making amends, when suddenly the students stopped discussing, and the surroundings became quiet, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

He looked in the direction everyone was staring at towards the main guest table, where an elderly man with a white beard stood up!

That is—Headmaster Albus Dumbledore!

Albus opened his arms wide and said with a smile, "Welcome, welcome everyone from all over the world to Hogwarts to begin the new school year! Welcome!"

"Before the opening banquet begins, I want to say a few words: idiot, crybaby, trash, and stubborn! But I don't want to hear those four words from your mouths in the coming year!"

"Alright, that's enough from what this old man has to say. The banquet shall officially begin!"

Dumbledore flicked his wrist, and instantly the main table and the long dining table were filled with food!

Fried pork cutlet, pan-fried steak, grilled sausage, fried chicken cutlet, mashed potatoes, French fries, pudding, juice, cake.

Even the pickiest eater can find food that suits their taste!

"Robin, do you know what 'idiot,' 'crybaby,' 'trash,' and 'stubborn' mean?"

After dodging Nick's near-headless attack, Harry asked in confusion.

"I know, that's just inter-academic prejudice!"

"Most of the students who get into Ravenclaw are very intelligent; they think those who don't are fools, or idiots!"

"Gryffindor students are mostly very brave. They think that people from other houses are cowardly, physically weak, and prone to crying."

"Most Slytherin students come from pure-blood families and uphold the idea of ​​pure-blood supremacy. They believe that students from other houses are not pure-bloods, but useless scraps, or dregs."

"Hufflepuff students are mostly honest, hardworking, and down-to-earth. They hope that students from other houses should adjust themselves, that is, be more stubborn!"

"this"

Harry was a little confused; he hadn't expected that "idiot, crybaby, scumbag, twist" would mean this.

"However, these are all outdated ideas, and apart from Slytherin, very few people will inherit these entrenched prejudices!"

After answering Harry's questions, Robin began stuffing himself with meat. He had eaten quite a few snacks on the Hogwarts Express, but those things weren't very filling!

As he was eating, a muffled groan of pain suddenly came from beside him.

hiss!

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing!"

Harry covered his forehead and frowned.

Robin followed Harry's gaze toward the main seating area!

The tall, thin male wizard with slicked-back, shiny hair was staring thoughtfully at the short wizard's purple turban!

Oh ho!

It's Snape and Quirrell, and the parasite master—Voldemort!

We must protect our precious Nagini well, lest it be kidnapped by the village bully.

"Robin, do you know who the wizard standing face-to-face with Professor Quirrell is?"

Harry had a gut feeling that the wizard hated him, hated him so much that he wanted to kick him out of Hogwarts.

"I know, Severus Snape, the Potions teacher. I've heard he's quite knowledgeable about Dark Magic!"

"Dark magic?"

Harry gasped and silently turned away from the main seat.

"Harry, there's nothing to be afraid of. Professor Snape, aside from being a bit cold-faced, strict in his teaching, a bit protective of his students, a bit fond of punishing, and a bit petty, doesn't have any other flaws!"

"Robin, Harry, I heard from Fred that Professor Snape loves..."

With a large piece of chicken in his mouth, Luo Bin asked to join the discussion. As the three of them talked, all the pudding, juice, egg tarts, and other dishes on the long dining table disappeared!

This means the opening banquet is over!

Sure enough, the next second, Dumbledore, who was sitting in the main seat, stood up. After he mentioned four points of attention, he led the entire school in singing the Hogwarts school song. Finally, he announced the end of the opening banquet.

Robin, Harry, and Ron followed the Gryffindor group out of the Great Hall, up the marble staircase, and through corridor after corridor until they arrived at the portrait of the plump woman in pink!

"Password?"

"I asked the fat woman."

"Dragon scum!"

"Prefect Percy answered."

"Password correct!"

The plump woman yawned and swayed her body, causing the picture frame to swing forward with her, revealing a circular hole behind the frame!

"Don't push, one at a time!"

Under Percy's guidance, the group climbed over the hole one by one. It's worth mentioning that Neville, who was slightly overweight and clumsy, needed two people to help him climb over the hole.

Behind the entrance is a huge room that can accommodate a hundred or so people. It is filled with comfortable, soft armchairs and is undoubtedly the common lounge of the Giraffe Academy.

"Girls, go to that door! Boys, follow me!" Percy shouted.

Behind the door was a spiral staircase. Clearly, the Gryffindor boys' dormitory was located in a tower. Soon, Robin found the dormitory following the directions.

Inside the dormitory, there were three beds with four curtain posts, from which hung dark red velvet curtains. In the corner, there were suitcases that had been delivered by train.

However, Big Fat (Robin's snowy owl) and Hedwig are not here; they have been sent to the Owl House, where there will be people specifically responsible for taking care of the student snowy owls.

There were three beds. Two were by the window and one was against the wall. Ron chose the one against the wall, while Robin and Harry chose the beds by the left and right windows, respectively.

After a busy day, all three of them were exhausted. After washing up, they went straight to bed.

The next day, in the main auditorium on the first floor!

While everyone was having breakfast, the deans of the four colleges walked in from the entrance hall. After distributing the class schedules to the students, they left from the entrance hall.

Luo Bin held the timetable, carefully examining the course schedule.

[

Monday, morning: two periods of History of Magic; afternoon: Transfiguration.

Tuesday morning: Herbalism class, Charms class; afternoon: Herbalism class.

Wednesday morning: Defense Against the Dark Arts; afternoon: Transfiguration; evening: Astronomy and Stargazing.

Thursday morning: Charms class, Herbalism; afternoon: Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Friday, morning: Potions class (two periods)

]

Overall, the course schedule wasn't too packed!

"Hi, hello, my name is Hermione, Hermione Granger, and I'm a freshman in the same house as you!"

A girl with fluffy hair was holding several thick books in one hand.

"Hello, Harry, Harry Potter, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Harry felt the other person was a bit arrogant because she always spoke with her chin held high; if she were any higher, it would be like she was looking down on people!
