The castle door opened, and Professor McGonagall, wearing an emerald green robe, came out.
Her expression was very serious and her eyes were sharp. Harry turned to Charles and said: "She is very powerful and difficult to deal with."
As a result, Harry discovered that Charles had an innocent smile on his face and looked like a good boy.
Charles has to be a good boy. The old man said that if he makes Professor McGonagall angry, he will consciously go to Azka Benya and stay there.
Besides, the old man ordered a broomstick for himself and asked the manufacturer to finish it and send it directly to Professor McGonagall for safekeeping.
Professor McGonagall led the students into the castle and came to the small room on the left side of the foyer.
She told the freshmen that the sorting ceremony would be held later and asked them to tidy up their appearance.
Charles was a little distracted until Harry asked him if he had a comb.
On the sidelines, several students discussed what the sorting ceremony would be like.
Hermione felt a little nervous and reached out to tug on Charles' sleeve to ask him if he knew what it was.
Charles whispered mysteriously: "I asked Mr. Ollivander, and he said that the test is related to each person's wand. The core of the wand is made of which animal it fights with."<
/p>
"Really...really?" Hermione asked tremblingly, "My wand...the core...is from a dragon..."
She was so frightened that she could not finish her sentence.
The students next to me were also frightened. They had all seen Ollivander, and if he said that, he would definitely not have run away.
"Dragon... is very powerful... I have read it in a book." Hermione was about to cry, "What should I do? I will be refused to learn!"
Harry also said nervously: "I...I can't fly, what should I do?"
Charles ignored Harry, but comforted Hermione: "It doesn't matter, the dragon's weak point is in its abdomen. When it pounces, you slide the shovel under it and attack its abdomen with your wand."
Then Ron on the side saw what an instant change of expressions meant. Harry and Hermione, who had been extremely nervous, suddenly relaxed. One gave Charles an elbow and the other gave him a kick.
Harry has known his neighbor Charles since he was a child, and Hermione has been this guy's elementary school classmate, and has been teased by him like this for many years.
Harry: "Ouch!"
Hermione: "Ouch!"
Charles: "This is the Iron Armor Curse. I want to learn to read by myself."
The old man said that Hogwarts is very dangerous and will kill 10 people on the way to class, so you must protect yourself anytime and anywhere, and the Iron Armor Curse must be on all day long.
At this time, a group of ghosts passed through the wall, and the fat monk greeted everyone.
The ghosts distracted everyone's attention, but the pressure caused by the Sorting Ceremony would not disappear so easily. If Professor McGonagall hadn't reminded him, Harry would have been holding the comb tightly until he saw the Sorting Hat.
The freshmen breathed a sigh of relief after Hannah Abbott demonstrated how to sort into different schools.
Charles saw that the sorting result was the same as in his memory. When Professor McGonagall read out his name, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
The dirty Sorting Hat was placed on Charles' head, and he immediately shouted: "Azkaban!"
Everyone thought the Sorting Hat was playing a prank, and the whole cafeteria burst into laughter. Even Dumbledore laughed.
Harry asked George Weasley standing aside: "What does Azkaban mean?"
George replied: "That's the wizard's prison."
Fred continued what he said: "Mom always worried about where we would go in the future."
"Oh..." Harry nodded, "I think it wouldn't be a joke if Dudley came."
Over there, Charles asked the Sorting Hat in a low voice: "I didn't offend you, did I?"
The Sorting Hat shook its tip and said: "Life is so boring, why not have some fun."
"I can feel that you are enduring great pain. This is such a powerful courage and courage. You are the most suitable for Gryffindor!"
"Gryffindor!"
After taking off his hat, Charles calmly put down his hat and walked towards the Gryffindor table with a smile.
As soon as Charles approached the table, the fourth and fifth children of the Weasley family pulled him over and asked him to sit between them.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Smith."
"Oh, your name is also Charles, just like our second brother. I believe we can get along very happily."
"Charlie is now a Romanian dragon trainer. He used to be the captain of the Gryffindor House Quidditch team. Do you know Quidditch? We are members of the house team. If you want to learn, we can teach you."
"Would you like some dessert? How about a chocolate frog?"
……
The two Weasleys, who looked exactly the same, were chatting with Charles and talking to each other. The atmosphere seemed harmonious, which made Prefect Weasley quite pleased.
It’s just that although Charles agreed on the surface, alarm bells were ringing in his heart, worried that they were playing some trick.
Seeing that the atmosphere was up, the twins felt that their favorability had been increased enough and started to get down to business.
Fred asked Charles: "I heard you have a bag?"
George said: "Just now you brought a comb to Potter."
Charles understood and remembered that Ron mentioned on the train that the two of them had studied holding bags, but gave up because they could not afford the materials.
"There is one." He never thought of hiding it, since he couldn't.
Fred immediately said: "Can you show us?"
George then said: "We can help you with your homework."
Charles replied: "No problem, you don't need to do your homework. This is not the place. Let's go back to the dormitory."
When the twins saw that he had agreed, they were so happy that they shared with him that they had made prank props.
Charles was also convinced by them, and it was clear that these two people's mastery of magic spells was far beyond that of their peers.
As the three of them talked and laughed, the sorting ceremony ended. Wayne walked to the Gryffindor table. After Dumbledore finished speaking, a sumptuous dinner appeared on the table.
Hogwarts maintains a very old tradition, and the advantage is that the food remains at the level before Archduke Ferdinand was assassinated.

Charles ordered a large piece of roast beef, two pork chops and three boiled potatoes. He also ordered some pea shoots and carrots, and finally poured tomato sauce on top of the potatoes.
George looked at the full plate in front of him and asked in surprise: "Can you eat so much?"
Harry, who was sitting next to George, said: "He has eaten more than others since he was a child."
Hermione, who was sitting opposite, also chimed in: "When he was in elementary school, he had to pay for the food of three people."
Charles raised his head and glared at Hermione, looked at her plate, and said with a sneer: "I will write and tell Mr. Granger that you asked for a lot of mints."
Hermione was so scared that she tried to eat as few sweet snacks as possible in order to protect her teeth.
Charles glanced at the plate in front of Harry again and said coldly: "Remember to eat more vegetables."
Harry was equally frightened.
At this time, a ghost came over. Nick, who was almost headless, originally wanted to remind Charles that points would be deducted for leaving too much food, but just seeing him feasting there, it might not be enough.
"There will be pudding later." Nick reminded him.
"Thanks for the reminder." Charles took a sip of pumpkin juice, "I eat in a measured way."
He started chatting with Nick while he was eating, and Nick reluctantly showed them the relationship between his head and neck.
Charles saw this unlucky ghost in the old man's memory and helped him at first, but Nick was unable to join the Headless Horseman Club due to his own problems.
It's just that the old man deliberately concealed some things and skipped many places.
Nick left shortly after, when the pudding appeared on the table.
Charles chatted with everyone about his family and ate two pieces of apple pie.
Dumbledore had been secretly observing Harry, and by the way saw Charles who was still talking, and wondered if Hogwarts was going to charge him for food?
