MTL - Harry Potter and the Badger Who Can’t Magic-Chapter 20 Dinner and lounge
Auston, who was talking to Justin, narrowed his eyes and looked at Harry under the big hat.
Auston didn't know whether Harry said anything to the hat, but in the end he was assigned to Gryffindor as he wished. He raised his head and looked at Sissy happily. Sissy was also applauding him vigorously. Auston heard The Weasley twins exclaimed "We have Potter! We have Potter!"
Looking at Harry's gaze at Sissi, Auston felt itchy with hatred.
Afterwards, Lisa Dupin became the new student of Ravenclaw among the remaining three, and Ron entered Gryffindor without any accident. The last remaining Bryce Sabini was assigned to Slytherin. Professor McGonagall rolled up the parchment, picked up the sorting hat, and left.
Albus Dumbledore stood up. He looked at the students with a smile on his face and stretched out his arms to them, as if nothing made him happier than seeing them all together.
"Welcome!" he said. "Welcome to Hogwarts for the new school year! Before the feast, I want to say a few words. It's: idiots! Cry noses! Scum! Screw! Thank you!" sit down. Everyone applauded and cheered.
Sissi turned to Auston and asked
"'Idiot! Cry nose! Scum! Screw!' What does it mean, what does he want to say?"
Auston glanced ill-naturedly at Harry, who was beside him with burning eyes, and replied
"May, Merlin be with you."
The little girl suddenly realized, "Oh! It's really interesting!" she said.
Auston then whispered to her, "Remember, even if you are assigned to Gryffindor, you must not have too much involvement with Harry Potter. He is a dangerous person."
Qian Qian nodded with a puzzled look on her face. Auston's heart finally let go, but this little girl still can't make people feel completely relieved. It seems that she has to think of something. Auston thought to himself.
At this moment, the empty plate in front of him was instantly filled with food, which caused a burst of exclamations from the students.
While the people next to him were feasting, Auston also took some lamb chops and put them on his plate.
"Are you from a Muggle family too?" Ernie, who was also a freshman, took a syrup cookie from the plate in front of Auston and stuffed it into his mouth, asking vaguely.
"My mother is a wizard, and my father is a squib who can't use magic." Osto replied slowly while cutting the lamb chops.
Ernie retracted his hand that wanted to take another piece, as if asking something rude
"I'm so sorry, I didn't know..."
Auston gave him a reassuring smile
"It doesn't matter, it's nothing to be sorry for, it's just that everyone has their own talents. My dad lives well in the Muggle world!"
"Really! His father graduated from Cambridge University. After graduation, he entered one of the four most famous accounting firms in the Muggle world - KPMG. Of course, his father became the comparison object when my mother criticized my father. ." Justin said deflatedly, with a cut of beef still on his fork.
"How did you meet? What about you, does anyone in your family know magic?" Ernie then asked Justin.
"No, our family is all Muggles. After I received the notice, I thought it was a liar. You know there are a lot of tricks in the Muggle world now."
"I didn't expect Auston to be here too. We were classmates at the Muggle school and best friends."
Justin grabbed Auston's shoulder and rubbed the oil from his fork onto Auston's tattered robe.
Soon all the meals on the plate disappeared, and the plates were as clean as new, and then plates of fruit pudding came up. Although Auston was not very fond of sweets, he still took a little green pudding and put it on the plate. inside.
When they all finished eating, the pudding disappeared. Professor Dumbledore stood up again. The restaurant also returned to silence.
"Oh, now that everyone has eaten and drank enough, I want to say a few more words to everyone. At the beginning of the semester, I want to give you a few points to note."
"First-year freshmen, note that students are not allowed to enter the woods on campus. Some of our old classmates should also keep this in mind."
Dumbledore's shining eyes swept over the Weasley twins.
"Besides, Mr. Filch, the administrator, wants me to remind everyone not to use magic in the corridor between classes."
"The vetting of Quidditch players will be held in the second week of this term. Those who are interested in participating in the academy team, please contact Mrs. Hooch.
"Finally, I have to tell everyone that those who don't want to suffer an accident and die in pain, please don't enter the corridor on the right on the fourth floor."
There was an uproar off the field, and even Justin opened his mouth and widened his eyes.
"Is there still such a dangerous place in this school? Why didn't they eliminate the hidden dangers!" Justin wondered.
Auston didn't say anything. Isn't it obvious to seduce some daring past.
After singing the school anthem, they were led back to their common room by the Hufflepuff prefect.
Hufflepuff's common room and dormitory are on the ground floor, the entrance is hidden in a pile of vats in the right corner of the kitchen hallway, tap the middle two vats in the second row in the rhythm of 'Helga Hufflepuff' the bottom cover, the cover will automatically rotate open.

"If you knock on the wrong lid, or knock at the wrong rhythm, the trespasser will be doused in vinegar," said Prefect Gabrielle Truman.
Opening the barrel and slowly advancing along the passage, Auston and the others arrived at the common room of Hufflepuff, which is a round, low-ceilinged room with a faint earthy fragrance. It is very warm and pleasant. window to see the stars in the night sky. There are bright and shiny copper trim in many places, and there are many plants either hanging from the ceiling or placed on the window sill, thickly upholstered sofas and chairs are yellow and black, and the round door on the wall to the dormitory opens. , copper lamps cast warm light on the four-poster bed, and all the quilts are color-blocked quilts.
"If you feel cold, there is a copper bed warmer on the wall. You can use it as you like," said the prefect who brought Auston and the others to the dormitory.
Auston and Justin, Ernie, Owen, and Wayne were divided into a dormitory.
A few people were so tired that they didn't have the strength to talk much. After washing up, they climbed into bed early and fell asleep quickly.
In the days that followed, Auston ran around the classrooms and occasionally got lost, but he always got help from the fat monk.
Due to his honest and honest nature, none of Hufflepuff's classmates expressed any objection when he took out his second-hand textbooks and ill-fitting school uniforms.
Only in the class with Slytherin, Malfoy always took the lead in laughing at his old clothes and books, but Auston stared, and he died immediately.
Recently, Auston was too busy to talk to Sissy, so he could only meet in the dining room every day, Sissi was always sitting between Ron and Harry. This made Auston very annoyed, and apparently, Sissy didn't take his words to heart.
