Whether it was Harry's subconscious choice or not, Harry and the others, who were waiting for the Sorting Ceremony, stood very close to Wentworth's seat. Harry and Draco even greeted Wentworth with a slightly nervous expression.
As the Sorting Ceremony proceeded, Hermione was first sorted into Gryffindor, followed by Draco into Slytherin. As Draco walked towards the Slytherin table, he specifically came over to Harry and said:
"Harry, I still hope you can join Slytherin!"
After saying that, Draco patted Harry on the shoulder in a very friendly manner.
Just then, Harry suddenly let out a soft cry.
"Harry, what's wrong?"
Ron asked with concern.
Wentworth, who witnessed all of this from a short distance away, whispered excitedly:
"here we go!"
"What started?"
Standing next to Wentworth, Green, who had overheard Wentworth speaking, asked a question out of curiosity.
Wentworth, watching Harry and Snape exchanging glances, smiled and asked Grimm:
"Green, if one day, a long time from now, you saw your first love and your nemesis's son, how would you greet them?"
I would say to him: Come on, call me Dad!
Wentworth: ...
At this moment, after Ron was sorted into Gryffindor by the Sorting Hat, it was finally Harry's turn. When Professor McGonagall uttered Harry Potter's name, the entire Hogwarts Great Hall fell silent for a moment, but it seemed that everyone was whispering among themselves.
Even the Hogwarts professors, who had been whispering among themselves, stopped and turned their attention to Harry Potter.
As Harry walked step by step toward the Sorting Hat, Green beside Wentworth whispered a prayer:
"Please don't let it be Slytherin! Please don't let it be Slytherin!"
Hearing Green's prayer, Wentworth asked curiously:
"Why absolutely not Slytherin?"
Green answered with his eyes closed:
"Because I want to win the House Cup again! If Harry Potter goes to Slytherin, he'll definitely be a huge asset to Slytherin! Please, no Slytherin!"
Looking at the incredibly devout Green beside him, Wentworth couldn't help but say:
"Believe me, if you want to win the House Cup again, pray that Harry Potter gets into Slytherin!"
Green: ? ? ?
On the other side of Wentworth, Cedric said regretfully:
"It's a pity that Harry Potter probably won't be able to come to Hufflepuff. Harry Potter is so pitiful, losing his parents at such a young age."
Upon hearing Cedric's words, Wentworth couldn't help but look at him with a strange expression, thinking to himself:
If you knew that less than a year after you left, your sweetheart would fall into Harry Potter's arms, would you still think this way?
On stage, as the Sorting Hat was placed on Harry Potter's head, Harry closed his eyes and murmured:
"It absolutely cannot be Slytherin! It absolutely cannot be Slytherin!"
Hearing Harry's inner thoughts, even the Sorting Hat couldn't help but ask:
"Why not Slytherin? Slytherin can make you a great wizard!"
Harry Potter paused for a moment, but finally said firmly:
"Because I don't want to be in the same college as the murderer who killed my parents!"
Hearing Harry Potter's words, the Sorting Hat was taken aback, but it had to be said that the reason was sufficient. The Sorting Hat then loudly proclaimed:
"Harry Potter, Gryffindor!"
Upon hearing the Sorting Hat's words, cheers erupted from the Gryffindor table, with Ron's cheers being the loudest.
At the same time, at the Slytherin table, Draco clapped his hands in frustration, watching Harry walk towards Gryffindor, and whispered:
"Don't worry, Harry, I won't let those filthy idiots corrupt you!"
As the Sorting Ceremony continued, two more new Slytherin freshmen sat down next to Draco. One of them, a very large Slytherin, extended his hand to Draco and said:
“Hello, Draco Malfoy, my name is Gregory Goyle. My father and your father, Mr. Lucius, had some dealings. It’s a pleasure to meet you. This is Vincent Crabbe, the man beside me!”
As Gregory Gore introduced Draco, Vincent Crabbe, who was standing nearby, also extended his hand to Draco.
In fact, their thinking was very simple: as heirs to the Malfoy family, pleasing Draco would definitely bring them huge benefits.
However, to their surprise, Draco merely glanced at them before asking a question:
"Do either of you know the Repair Charm?"
Hearing Draco's question, the two exchanged a glance, somewhat puzzled. Finally, Vincent spoke up:
"I'm sorry, Draco, neither of us knows how to use the Repair Charm. Is something broken? Just buy another one. With the Malfoy family's wealth, is there anything they can't buy!"
After speaking, Vincent even gave a deliberately ingratiating smile, but Vincent's smile did not elicit a response from Draco, so Vincent eventually had to resort to an awkward laugh.
Draco frowned and asked again:
"What spells do you two know?"
Seeing that the two of them still shook their heads, Draco said impatiently:
"Get away from me! You two don't deserve to sit with me!"
Chapter 171 Thomas Reiwer Returns to the Ministry of Magic
Just as the Hogwarts Sorting Ceremony was underway, Cassandra's father, Thomas Revol, the former Head of the Auror Office at the British Ministry of Magic, was walking out of the Minister's office. The dim light in the corridor illuminated Thomas's unpredictable face.
In the minister's office, Fudge was sitting behind his desk, while Umbridge stood in front of him and began to speak:
"Minister Fudge, don't you dislike Rufus Scrimgeour? Why not take this opportunity to bring Thomas Revol back into the Auror office?"
Fudge gave Umbridge a cold look, and only after Umbridge lowered his head did Fudge slowly say:
“Even if Rufus Scrimgeour did a terrible job, he was still the one I chose, but Thomas Revol was not!”
"I understand, Your Excellency!"
Umbridge responded very respectfully.
After passing through the Ministry of Magic's staircase, Thomas Revol arrived at the sixth basement level of the Ministry of Magic, finally stopping in front of a dilapidated door with a label that read: Department of Magical Transportation - Floo Network Management Department.
Thomas Revol sighed, pushed open the door and went inside. He found the room in complete disarray, with only two gray-haired wizards sitting idly at a table not far away, playing wizard chess.
Hearing the door open, the two old wizards looked up and, seeing Thomas Revol, quickly said:
"Welcome to the new manager of the FiluNet Management Department!"
Although they said "welcome," the two old wizards didn't even get up.
Indeed, after returning to the British Ministry of Magic, Thomas Revol fabricated a story, passed the Ministry's brief review, and was finally able to return to his post at the Ministry of Magic.
However, Fudge used the excuse that during the time Thomas Revol was missing, Rufus Scrimgeour had taken over the Auror office, and in order to maintain the stability of the Auror office, he transferred Thomas Revol to the Floo Network Management Department as its head.
From head of the Auror office under the Department of Magical Law Enforcement to head of the Floo Network Management Department under the Department of Magical Transportation, Thomas Revol's transfer may seem like a lateral one, but in reality, all wizards know that Thomas Revol's political life has come to an end in Fudge's hands!
Seemingly oblivious to the other person's rudeness, Thomas Revol walked step by step to his seat, sat down, and stared blankly ahead.
Meanwhile, in another corner of the room, the two old wizards continued playing wizard chess, showing no intention of getting up to show off.
After an unknown amount of time, when the two old wizards set up the chessboard again, intending to play another game, Thomas Revo seemed to have thought of something, and the corners of his mouth kept curving up. Finally, Thomas Revo burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha!"
Thomas Revol's laughter echoed throughout the room, and the two old wizards looked at him with astonishment, exchanging bewildered glances.
Then, Thomas Revol stood up calmly and began tidying up the room. Seeing this, the two old wizards exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of contempt in each other's eyes, before continuing their game of chess.
But what neither of them noticed was that behind them, Thomas Revol's gaze was gradually hardening, as if he had made some kind of decision.
Meanwhile, after the Sorting Ceremony concluded and Wentworth, Cedric, and the others enjoyed a sumptuous opening dinner, Dumbledore instructed the prefects to take all the students back to their dormitories and then declared the dinner over.
Just as the prefects were getting up to greet the new students and warn them not to get separated, Wentworth greeted Green and then walked straight to the professors' table, coming up to Dumbledore.
Wentworth first greeted the professors he was familiar with. Except for Snape, who still had a cold expression, the other professors all asked Wentworth a few questions with smiles on their faces. After all, teachers have always been particularly fond of students who are good at studying and obedient.
Then, Wentworth spoke up without any pretense, saying to Dumbledore:
"Headmaster Dumbledore, I have something I'd like to ask you. Would it be convenient for you?"
Dumbledore, with a kind smile, answered:
“Of course, Wentworth, come with me!”
Then, led by Dumbledore, the two returned to the headmaster's office at Hogwarts. Dumbledore casually waved his hand and brought Wentworth a vanilla pudding, then sat back down in his seat and quietly watched Wentworth enjoy the pudding.
Wentworth said as he ate his vanilla pudding:
"Headmaster Dumbledore, my mission is complete. Harry Potter has been safely delivered to Hogwarts!"
Dumbledore smiled and nodded, then said:
“Thank you very much, Wentworth. You know, Harry’s childhood wasn’t easy. I think that letting him meet his classmates at Hogwarts beforehand will help him integrate into Hogwarts better!”
Wentworth nodded dismissively, continuing to eat his vanilla pudding while asking:
"Headmaster Dumbledore, you really do care for Harry!"
Upon hearing Wentworth's words, Dumbledore let out a long sigh and said:
"Yes, Harry's parents left us forever while fighting that person, leaving Harry all alone! But their sacrifice was worthwhile, and justice ultimately prevailed."
Upon hearing Dumbledore's words, Wentworth suddenly laughed. After a moment, Wentworth looked up at Dumbledore and slowly said:
"Justice will ultimately prevail? Of course! Only the victor is justice!"
Upon hearing Wentworth's words, Dumbledore fell silent for a moment, while on the walls of the Hogwarts Headmaster's office, countless portraits of the Hogwarts Headmaster began to whisper among themselves.
Wentworth watched Dumbledore quietly. Wentworth noticed that ever since he saw Quirrell still appearing at Hogwarts, he seemed to have become bolder.
Wentworth was not worried at all that Dumbledore hadn't noticed Quirrell's unusual behavior. After all, in the original story, Snape's memories included a scene where Dumbledore warned him to be careful of Quirrell.
