Chapter 683 Crooked Nut Kernel

In the little wizards' joyful or troubled thoughts, Hogwarts Castle appeared in front of them.

After tidying up for a while, everyone gathered in the auditorium to wait for the sorting ceremony to begin.

"I wonder what's delicious tonight." Stebbins looked forward to the food tonight, "I'm so hungry."

Summers pushed up his glasses, "Are you still in the mood to eat?"

Stebbins rubbed his eyes, a little confused, "Why can't you eat? Of course, if you can let me go back and take a nap."

Summers was speechless, "Don't you know you have an exam tomorrow?"

"Oh, this." Stebbins leaned on the dining table. "Someone sneaked into the prefects' car and overheard the quarrel among the prefects. The news spread very fast."

Summers was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Robert, "You don't even lock the door when discussing important school matters?"

Robert looked at him innocently, and that expression made Summers couldn't help but shudder.

"We will still lock the door." Robert shrugged, "But whether we can eavesdrop on important information does not depend on whether we lock the door, right?"

Summers glared at him angrily, "If you lock the door, who can eavesdrop?"

"It's telescopic ears." Robert shrugged, "Fred did a good job."

"It was Fred who was eavesdropping?" Summers laughed. "Then he must be doomed."

"Then you really underestimate him." Robert cast a sympathetic look at the Gryffindor table, "He gave things to the little lions."

Summers was shocked, "He, he, he..." He looked at Fred, "He asked the little lions to gather information?"

Indeed... so.

But this matter was initiated by Li. As a professional Quidditch commentator, he wanted to ask his friends if there were any hot topics among the little wizards this year.

However, Fred took advantage of the little wizards' love of new things to get the information he wanted.

Well, even if he is caught, he can use the excuse of "asking classmates to test new products" to excuse himself.

As expected, it was Fred who had a quick mind.

After winning the prize for the little wizard's frightened emoticon, which was very popular, the sorting ended quickly.

The number of Hufflepuffs has increased again. Although a large number of senior students graduate every year, there are never fewer people at the Hufflepuff dining table.

Instead, they gave away more.

In comparison, the number of Slytherins decreased again.

They generally only want pure blood, and the occasional mixed blood will be rejected by them, so the number has never been large.

Robert looked at Hermione again and saw that she and Parvati were talking and laughing. Both of them seemed to have a badge on. They were pointing at each other's badge and discussing something in a low voice. Hermione also took out a badge. I got a pen and paper and started writing and drawing.

After everyone had eaten and drank, Principal Dumbledore began his opening speech again.

First of all, it is natural to give face to the administrator. After all, he has been guarding the school for many years, even if he is a squib.

"Mr. Filch, the administrator, would like me to tell you that this year, there are several more prohibited items in the castle. They are - Screaming Balls, Wolf Fang Flying Saucers and Combo Boomerangs." It seemed like he thought of it. What? Principal Dumbledore's mouth twitched.

At this time, he saw Mr. Filch at the door, looking at the situation in the auditorium through the gap, then he coughed dryly and continued.

"So far, there are 437 items on the prohibited use list in the castle. You can see it in Mr. Filch's office. Anyone who is interested can check it..."

He continued: "As before, the Forbidden Forest is not allowed to enter, and in Hogsmeade, students in grade 3 and above must have a guardian's signature before they can go there."

These are commonplace things, and the little wizards feel drowsy after hearing them, until——

"I would also like to inform you with great regret that the school will not hold the College Cup Quidditch Tournament this year."

"Why?"

"Huh?"

"What?"

"No!"

"This is impossible!"

"This is because a large-scale event will start in October and last throughout the school year." Principal Dumbledore said cheerfully, "I guarantee you that you will all have more fun than Quidditch."

"Triwizard Tournament?" Hermione looked up from the parchment, her face full of doubts, "Is it still the same two schools?"

"Triwizard Tournament?" Harry heard her words and looked at her doubtfully, "What is that?"

"It's a grand event for wizards to exchange and learn." Hermione lowered her head again and continued writing and drawing, "But it shouldn't have anything to do with us."

"Since it's an exchange and learning, how come it has nothing to do with us?" Ron was being fed a piece of steak by Lavender. When he heard her words, he couldn't help but snarled.

Lavender said with a smile, "Because Miss Granger can only do test questions, and this kind of communication competition focuses on communication skills."

Hermione curled her lips and said nothing. She also knew that her communication skills were a bit poor, so naturally she wouldn't say much.

"The most famous of the large-scale events related to Hogwarts is the Triwizard Tournament. Here, I need to explain it to those of you who don't know much about this competition."

He cleared his throat and continued, "The Triwizard Tournament was founded about 700 years ago. It is a friendly competition between the three largest magic schools in Europe." Principal Dumbledore said a line that everyone knew. , paused before continuing, "However, our competition this time is not just about exchanges and cooperation among the three countries."

The little wizards were stunned for a moment, then looked up at Principal Dumbledore in astonishment.

"Because the Institute of Magic has suffered an unimaginable disaster, Hogwarts has decided that before the dust settles, the wizard students of the Institute will continue their studies at Hogwarts... I would like to thank the school directors for their efforts. support."

Robert raised his head. He thought this was just a proposal, but he didn't expect it to be passed?

Speaking of which, what would Hogwarts be like with the Neon People?

I'm inexplicably looking forward to it!

Principal Dumbledore said with a smile, "Furthermore, I intend to introduce Neon's advanced wizarding system to Hogwarts, so I have hired several teachers from the Institute of Magic as assistant professors. I hope that in the future, everyone can be peaceful get along."

The little wizards started communicating one after another.

Are wizards from other countries entering the school?

Isn't this amazing?

I just don’t know what foreigners are like!

Those students who participated in vacation study trips were relatively calm.

We have been watching Waiguoren all summer, are we still surprised? !

Calm down, they are just foreigners from three countries. What we saw during the holiday were from more than ten or twenty countries!
