Chapter 9 The Gryffindor Lounge

Under the leadership of Prefect Percy, the freshmen walked through the noisy crowd, walked out of the dining hall, and climbed the marble stairs. The people in the portraits on the roadside corridor whispered and pointed as they passed. Percy led him twice on the way.

They passed through doors hidden behind sliding panels and hanging drapes.

Ryan felt that it was true that the castle in the history of Hogwarts was a refuge in the dark ages. Only when the castle was built as a military fortification would there be so many inconveniences that were used to block invaders.

Barriers and concealed passages.

Everyone was yawning, even Ryan. It seemed that the 11-year-old body was still not fully developed. Otherwise, Ryan, who was good at cultivating immortals in his previous life, would not have been so sleepy just after nine o'clock.

After dragging heavy steps and climbing many more stairs, feeling as if the stairs were enchanted and might never be finished, the person in front suddenly stopped.

It turned out that Peeves was causing trouble in mid-air. Fortunately, Percy drove him away. They continued walking forward, and when they reached the end of the corridor, Percy told everyone that they were there.

There is a portrait hanging at the end of the corridor. In the portrait, a very rich woman is wearing pink clothes.

"Password?" she said.

"Dragon scum," Percy said. The painting moved forward unsteadily, revealing a circular hole in the wall. They all crawled through the wall hole, and Ryan pulled Neville in smoothly.

, they found that they had arrived at the Gryffindor common room. It was a comfortable circular room, decorated in gold and red tones, and filled with soft armchairs. Against the wall,

There is a roaring fireplace, which dissipates a lot of the cold feeling in the old castle.

It was obvious that the freshmen were very sleepy. The seniors also knew this, so they didn't say much. Percy guided the girls into one door, to their dormitories, and then took the boys into another door.

At the top of the spiral staircase, Ryan found his bedroom.

Fortunately, Harry and I were not in the same dormitory, otherwise in the third grade, there would have been a 1/5 chance of winning the lottery of a scary single elderly man staring at the bedside with a knife at two o'clock in the morning.

There were five four-poster beds in the bedroom, hung with dark red flannel curtains. The luggage had already been brought up. Everyone was exhausted after a day of train travel and dinner, and did not want to talk anymore, so they fell on the bed.

Fell into sleep.

Because of the habit he had formed before, Ryan woke up from his dream the next morning and found that he had woken up a little early and the sun had just risen. He was the first to wake up, while his roommates were still sleeping.

A first-grade class schedule was placed on the bedside. Ryan was a little surprised, because he had always been a light sleeper and would wake up when there was someone next to him. This class schedule could appear on the bedside without him responding.

It is said that house elves are indeed powerful.

After looking at the class schedule, there are a total of eight classes for the first grade. Basically, the class time is from Monday to Friday from 9 am to 12 am and from 2 pm to 3:30 pm. Only the astronomy class is from 8 pm to 9 pm.

To be honest, this study time is much shorter than that of Chinese junior high schools.

After washing up, thinking that there was no class in the morning, he gave up the plan of waking up his roommates and walked down the stairs to the common room.

Hermione was already sitting on a sofa, holding a book and reading.

"Good morning, Hermione." Ryan waved. Then he sat on a sofa next to Hermione and asked, "Although there are no classes this morning, you still need to have breakfast. Skipping breakfast is not a good idea.

"

Hermione turned the book in her hand to a certain page, then pointed to the content and said: "I learned from the book "A History of Hogwarts" that there are a total of one hundred and forty stairs in the castle.

Two places. Some of them are wide and big; some are narrow, small, and rickety; some lead to different places every Friday; some go up halfway, and a step will suddenly disappear."

"What's worse is that there are many doors that won't open if you ask them to open them politely or poke them in the right place; some doors aren't really doors at all, just doors.

A solid wall blocks what appears to be a door. It's difficult to remember what is where because everything seems to be constantly moving. The people in the portraits are constantly visiting each other, and it's certain that even

Even armor can walk."

Hermione closed the book and opened her hands: "So now I can only wait here to see if any senior can take me on the way... Now we are taking it to the restaurant."

Fortunately, before long, footsteps were heard on the stairs, and a girl with black hair and a braided ponytail came down the stairs.

Ryan immediately came forward for help. The senior who called herself Angelina Johnson enthusiastically extended a helping hand and asked Ryan and Hermione to follow her to the auditorium. Along the way, she kept explaining to Ryan and the others how to pass special stairs and secret doors.

method.

Finally arriving at the auditorium, she told Ryan and the others that these things change regularly, and if you pay attention, you can quickly remember the characteristics of these stairs.

While eating, Ryan couldn't help but envy Hufflepuff, because their dormitory was closest to the dining hall and next to the kitchen.

After dinner, Ryan originally planned to take a walk around the castle while there was no class in the morning. After all, as a Harry Potter fan in his previous life, he went to Hogwarts. How could he not visit the familiar places described in the book?

Woolen cloth?

Unfortunately, this plan was disrupted by Hermione. She believed that self-study before class was very important, so she decided to go to the library and sent an invitation to Ryan.

Thinking that if she didn't go to the library, she would probably be looked down upon by Hermione, who looked at her as a scumbag, and she would lose face. In addition, the library was also an important place in the original novel. Ryan gave up his original plan of wandering around the castle, and he and Hermione

Went to the library together.

The library is located on the second floor of Hogwarts Castle and has a high dome. There are thousands of bookshelves inside, storing thousands of books.

Maybe because it was morning, Ryan and the others found that there were not many students in the library. Hermione came to an empty table and sat down, opened the textbook and started reading, occasionally writing something down in the notebook next to her.

Ryan selected a few books that introduced the current situation of the magical world and read them. After all, the information he got before was not comprehensive, and the novels he read in his previous life could only bring some first-hand information, but these comprehensive introductions to the magical world are the key to this wonderful world.

The cornerstone of the world's existence.

More than an hour later, it was time for the morning classes to end at Hogwarts. A large group of students rushed into the library, busy looking up information and writing homework.

It was obvious that the crowded environment made Ryan feel a little irritated. Seeing that Hermione was immersed in her studies, he did not disturb her. After checking out the borrowing procedures for a few books from Mrs. Pince, Ryan left with the books under his arm.

library.

Ryan still couldn't remember the route upstairs. Fortunately, he met the almost headless Nick on the way, which made him successfully return to Gryffindor Tower.
