Chapter 38 Gryffindor?no i belong to everyone
Following Hagrid, they walked down a steep path to a black lake with many small boats floating on it.

"Every four people take a boat, okay?" Hagrid said, and then he looked in David's direction again, "David, do you want to sit with me?"

It seemed that he still hadn't given up on Newt's dragon, David shook his head hastily, and boarded a boat with Hermione.

A little girl was sitting on the boat, who looked like a wizard born in a Muggle family. She was sitting on the boat, clutching the hem of her school uniform nervously.

After Hermione and the others sat on it, there was still a seat vacant on the boat.

"David!" A surprised voice came from the shore.

David looked back, and Neville was trotting towards them. David saw that his clothes hadn't been adjusted properly, and one collar was tucked into his clothes.

"I didn't find my compartment until the end." Neville said out of breath after he got on the boat and sat down, "After I changed my clothes and got out of the car, everyone started to go down. I caught up with you."

Neville looked delighted.

After David helped him straighten his collar, he chatted with Hermione for a while, and all the little wizards on the shore sat on the boat.

"Are you all seated?" Hagrid yelled loudly while sitting in a boat, and several people around responded to him, "Okay then, let's go."

As soon as Hagrid finished speaking, the boat started to move by itself, and slowly rowed towards the castle.

"Hi, my name is Hermione Granger." Seeing that the little witch sitting next to her became more nervous, Hermione asked her to relax a bit.

"My name is Kelly Lopez." After Kelly finished speaking, she pursed her lips tightly and stopped talking.

Hermione asked a few more questions later, but Kelly didn't speak again, so Hermione turned to the other side and said. "David, what are you looking at?"

David had been lying on the side of the boat looking down while she and Kelly were talking.

"Oh, my grandpa said that there are mermaids and Grindylows below, I want to see if I can see them." David continued to look down.

Suddenly he felt someone hitting him from behind, David got up suspiciously, turned his head to look, and saw Hermione winking at him all the time.

Kelly next to her became even more nervous after David said that there were mermaids in the lake, and her fingertip joints turned white from her pinching.

"Oh, I'm very sorry. I just checked carefully. There is nothing in the lake. It seems that they dare not approach the location of the castle." David comforted.

But Kelly was still not much better, but fortunately the boat docked quickly, and they followed Hagrid through a tunnel, up a flight of steps, and came to a gate.

Hagrid knocked three times, the door opened slowly, and a witch in emerald green robes appeared in front of the little wizards. She was Professor McGonagall.

After Professor McGonagall thanked Hagrid, she led everyone to a hut, and she began to introduce the following matters to everyone.

"Do you know how the schools are sorted? Do the test questions?" Hermione asked in a low voice, she was also a little nervous now.

Just as David was about to speak, he heard Professor McGonagall's stern voice: "Please listen to me now, please?"

David quickly stood up obediently, and Hermione was also afraid to speak.

After Professor McGonagall finished speaking, he led them into the hall. The senior students were divided into two sides of the hall, and the professors sat on the high platform.

What attracts the most attention is the constantly twinkling stars above.

At this time, Hermione showed her mastery of learning, and she began to keep introducing the origin of these things to David, and added the source, as if she was writing an academic paper.

Professor McGonagall put a pointed wizard's hat on the bench in front of them. It looked so dirty that David felt as if he could pat it and the whole room would be filled with dust.

Worst of all, it began to sing, perhaps read, for David could hear no rhythm in its voice.

David couldn't help but think of the lyrics: "Long yellow dress, fluffy hair"

After the Sorting Hat sang, Professor McGonagall began to ask people to put on the hat and sort them.

"David Scamander," called Professor McGonagall, who smiled at him as David went up.

David picked up the sorting hat with a bit of disgust, and put it on his head.

"Oh, it's another little wizard from the Scamander family." David heard a slightly low voice, a bit like the one he heard on the train in front of him, and they were all speaking under the pressure of their throats.

"I didn't say that on purpose." The Sorting Hat's voice became lighter, even a little childish, "Look, look, as long as I speak in my original voice, everyone will think I'm like a child, obviously I'm already a thousand years old."

"But I will forgive you. I like the children of the Scamander family. You are all kind." The Sorting Hat continued: "I hope you won't be expelled like Newt Scamander."

Grandpa was expelled from school?

David was surprised to think that he had never heard Newt talk about it.

"What? Didn't he tell you?" The Sorting Hat said, "Maybe he's embarrassed, but that's a hero's story."

The Sorting Hat's tone became high, but before it could say a few words, Professor McGonagall coughed twice and interrupted it, making it hurry up.

"Okay, okay, don't let me say a few more words, usually no one talks with me, just a silly bird screaming beside me." The Sorting Hat seemed a little less interested.

I can come to chat with you later!

Mainly, David thought, interested in Newt's heroic story after all.

"Really?" The Sorting Hat became happy, "I knew that the children of the Scamander family are kind people! After you come, I can tell you the story of Newt's hero. I can tell you the story of Dumbledore, I watched them grow up."

"Okay, now it's time to sort you, where do you want to go?" the sorting hat said.

This can also be chosen by yourself?
David thought.

"It was originally impossible, but I can give you privileges, but they don't know." The Sorting Hat was a little proud.

Well then I want to go to Ravenclaw!

David thought, Xueba should go where Xueba should go!
"Okay, no problem!" David felt that it was about to open its mouth and shout out, but it seemed to remember something, so it didn't say it.

"I suddenly remembered, you can't go to Ravenclaw." The Sorting Hat's tone was a little awkward.

why?
David was a little confused. Could it be that I am not strong enough to be a school bully?
"It's not that reason, you are very suitable to go to Ravenclaw, but someone sorted you in advance and let you go to Gryffindor." The Sorting Hat muttered in a low voice.

Professor Dumbledore?

"Hmm." The Sorting Hat replied in a super low voice, Dumbledore didn't want it to say it.

It seems that he is going to tie me aboard the boat!

David sighed.

"What ship?" said the Sorting Hat.

It's okay, it's okay, can you do me a favor?
"Of course, I can take it as your compensation." The Sorting Hat said.

You... can pronounce the names of four houses, and finally say that I go to Gryffindor.

David thought.

"Ha, of course no problem." The Sorting Hat also seemed to find this very interesting. He cleared his throat, coughed, and the hall suddenly fell silent. David had been sorted for too long.

"The house that David Scamander is going to is" David heard the Sorting Hat shout, "Hufflepuff!"

There was applause from across the Hufflepuff table, as they celebrated having another Scamander.

Dumbledore on the high platform looked surprised, a lot of wine in the glass was spilled, he didn't know what went wrong, and he even wanted to pull the Sorting Hat up now and ask what it was doing!
But before he could take action, the voice of the Sorting Hat sounded again: "Ravenclaw!"

The hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at the Sorting Hat, not knowing what it was doing.

The student of Raquel Rao raised his hand, wondering if the palm should be slapped down.

Professor McGonagall's hand to get the Sorting Hat was also hanging in the air.

"Slytherin." The Sorting Hat shouted even more emotionally.

Now everyone in the auditorium is dumbfounded, everyone is wondering if the sorting hat is broken
"None of the above houses!" The Sorting Hat's voice resounded throughout the hall, "The house he went to should be Gryffindor!"

You are amazing!

David thought.

"It's all trivial!" The Sorting Hat said happily: "Remember to come and chat with me in the future. I'll be in the principal's office."

sure no problem!
David took off his hat and put it on the bench. Professor McGonagall hadn't reacted yet, and so did the others. The entire auditorium was dead silent. This may be the quietest time in Hogwarts' history.

David bowed to everyone and walked towards the Gryffindor table. When passing the high platform, David smiled and winked at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore had already reacted, he smiled and raised his glass to David.

After David found a seat at the Gryffindor table, everyone in Gryffindor realized that their cheers almost lifted the roof of the auditorium. cool.

There were two red-haired students clamoring whether they could go up to be sorted again.

Seeing their excitement, David felt that if Professor McGonagall was not still standing next to the Sorting Hat, the two of them would have already run up.

　Sorted!Please recommend, please collect, thank you all, hope to have a good time!
