Chapter 26 Purple Bald Head

Wright returned the hat to Professor McGonagall and gave her a very standard and extremely polite smile, trying to restore his image in the mind of the famously stern Head of Gryffindor.

But it's a pity that Professor McGonagall doesn't even want to look at Wright now. She impatiently stretched out her hand to signal Wright to return to the long table in Ravenclaw, and then Professor McGonagall quickly read out the name of the next child waiting to be sorted.

You know, in all the years Professor McGonagall has been teaching at Hogwarts, in her memory, the sorting ceremony has never lasted so long. This child named Wright stayed under the sorting hat for at least ten minutes!

Moreover, he covered the Sorting Hat's mouth!

Professor McGonagall tried her best not to think about anything about this child. Anyway, he has been sorted into Ravenclaw by the Sorting Hat, so let Professor Flitwick have the headache! Those little lions in the courtyard were enough to make her feel better!

Wright walked towards the Ravenclaw table second on the left, and was immediately pulled to sit next to her by Chang Chu who stood up from his seat. The students of Ravenclaw House, whether they were seniors or juniors, all stood up and came to Wright's side, hugging or shaking hands with him.

After a while, the surroundings of Wright became quiet, and the Ravenclaw students slowly returned to their seats.

But there were still noisy voices coming from Gryffindor.

"He should be in Gryffindor! Not Ravenclaw!"

“He accomplished something huge that no one had accomplished in thousands of years!”

"he……"

Then the noisy Weasley twins were instantly silenced by Professor McGonagall's exquisite silent and wandless Silence Charm.

Professor McGonagall showed an indifferent smile to everyone around, and then continued the sorting ceremony expressionlessly.

"Wright, I think you are simply the coolest person in the world!" Chang Chu waited for everyone around Wright to disperse before he whispered in Wright's ear, "I seem to like you even more!"

Wright reached behind Chang Chu, grabbed her collar, and then pulled her back to a normal sitting position.

"Now, please watch the sorting ceremony quietly." Wright did not look at Chang Chu, but looked at the sorting hat seriously. Now he wants to use this time to perform well, so as to slightly restore his image just now.

But obviously this is in vain.

Soon, Professor McGonagall read out the name of the last child.

"Terry Travers!"

There was a brief pause.

"Slytherin!"

When the pale little boy walked to the Slytherin table, Wright and Chang Chu clapped along with the people around him.

Professor McGonagall rolled up the piece of parchment with the names of the new students on it, then picked up the sorting hat and left. But Wright thought she gave him a hard look before leaving. Was it an illusion?

Albus Dumbledore stood up from his huge golden throne. He looked at the students with a smile on his face and stretched out his arms towards them.

"Welcome everyone to come to Hogwarts to start the new school year!" he said. "Before the banquet begins, I would like to say a few words. That is: 'Idiot! Cry! Residue! Screw!' Thank you everyone!"

Dumbledore sat back in his seat, and the students below applauded and cheered.

"What did the principal say just now?" Chang Chu asked the senior sitting next to him. Wright also set his sights on the beautiful senior. He was also very curious about this.

"Unfortunately, I don't know what he just said." The senior sister shrugged, "Maybe this is Dumbledore's unique sense of humor. He talks about it every year at the freshman banquet, but no one has ever said it. Know what that means."

At this time, the plates in front of me were full of food. Beef, chicken, pork, lamb; and boiled potatoes, fried potatoes, baked potatoes, fried potatoes; and a whole bunch of other random things. And for some weird reason, there were a bunch of green lollipops on the table.

"What is this?" Wright held up a green lollipop with a thick layer of sugar coating on its surface.

"Sour lollipops, a candy sold in Honeydukes. The one you are holding now may have been made by the chefs in our school kitchen. Maybe it was because Dumbledore loved eating this thing during this period, so he put it on it. "The beautiful senior introduced the two of them to Wright.

"Dumbledore occasionally shares his favorite things with us, but I advise you not to try this kind of candy. Someone once had a hole burned in his tongue when he ate a sour lollipop."

Wright hurriedly threw the sour candy cane into the plate, damn old bee!

After everyone was almost full, the remaining food disappeared from the plate.

Dumbledore stood up, "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 put forward a few things to pay attention to.

"Attention first-year students, students are prohibited from entering the woods on campus. Some of our classmates from the old class should also remember this." Dumbledore glanced at Gryffindor with his shining eyes and said vaguely He glanced towards Wright.

"Furthermore, the administrator, Mr. Filch, also asked me to remind everyone not to cast magic in the corridors between classes.

"The review of Quidditch players will be held in the second week of this semester. Students who are interested in participating in the college team please contact Mrs. Huo Qi.

"Finally, let me introduce to you your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for the new school year, but he is not available yet..."

Before Dumbledore could finish his words, at this moment, the door of the auditorium was slammed open.

A man stood in the doorway, wrapped in a black traveling cloak. Everyone in the auditorium turned to look at the stranger, and suddenly a faint blue light flashed across, illuminating the stranger.

He took off his black cloak and started walking toward the staff table.

"Sorry, Dumbledore." The stranger touched his big purple bald head and said in a low and hoarse voice, "You know, the crew is always very busy. Although the money they paid me is always Less than the other roles, but I really liked the job, but when you offered me the job, I immediately gave up on it. There's nothing more worthy of admiration than being a professor at Hogwarts. job?”

The purple figure walked up to Dumbledore, and he stretched out his left hand with a golden glove.

"You know, I was so busy! I didn't even have time to take off my costume."

Dumbledore shook hands with him and whispered a few more words. Then Dumbledore motioned for the man to sit in the only empty seat in the teacher's chair.

"Please allow me to introduce our new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher," Dumbledore happily broke the silence in the auditorium, "Professor Thanos."
