MTL - Harry Potter’s Book of Sin-Chapter 6 Hogwarts Express
的 The sunshine on September 1 was so bright that even God seems to be congratulating all the freshmen on their admission.
The sky above London is transparent, with a few faint clouds hanging on the blue sky wall. The refreshing breeze blew into everyone's ears, softly whispering and intoxicating.
Maca bought a new suitcase at Diagon Alley. This box was a second-hand item bought at a scrap shop. The invisible stretch spell inside it was a bit damaged and the space was a lot smaller, but fortunately the Ministry of Magic posted a sticker Also firmly attached to the inside flap.
After trying to downplay this box and chopping the price several times, she finally bought it with pain. At this moment, he was easily walking on the platform aisle of King's Cross Station, enjoying this happy mood bought with King Garonne-the luggage was only an owl, and a lightweight suitcase. Such a trip is How wonderful.
After a short while, he came between Platform 9 and Platform 10, but hesitated staring at the thick support pillar.
"Oh?" Maca stretched her hand over, and she passed through the wall of the stone and brick, with a surprised expression.
The first time is always a bit uncomfortable. Although I don't feel pain, there is still some tension. With a small step forward, he found that he had passed there and reached the real Hogwarts express platform.
The smoke of the steam locomotive lingered over the crowd of cats, and cats of various colors wore around people's feet. In the humming of the crowd and the noise of dragging the heavy luggage, the owl also screamed harshly, and you echoed me.
的 The owl standing on Maca's left shoulder looks larger than the others, and it's quiet, not babbled like those little guys. It blinked bright, big eyes and looked at the crowd in the aisle ahead, unmoved at all.
Yes, after getting along with each other, Maca found out that his pure black owl didn't seem to like staying in the cage. It has never been back since he released it.
"Malfa, let's go!" Makar gave it a very powerful name-Malfurion, of course, "Malfa" for short.
"Goo." Marfa screamed in agreement.
There were already a lot of people in the carriage. After passing several carriages, Maca didn't see anyone he knew, so he randomly chose a small compartment and walked in.
噢 "Oh, good morning!" Maca nodded toward the man standing in the doorway, "don't mind if I sit here?"
当然 "Of course, come in!" A dark-haired boy replied immediately.
男 This boy looks a bit restrained and doesn't seem to be very good at communicating with others. After answering a sentence, he shrinks back to his seat and doesn't speak.
"Don't mind introducing yourself?" Maca saw the atmosphere in the cubicle was a bit cold, so she had to start with a topic, "My name is Maca, Maca McLean, how about you?"
"... Anthony Goldstein." The dark-haired boy groaned, looking more nervous.
I don't seem to be very good at chatting. Maca nodded, and no longer communicated with each other, but he still had a lot to do! For example, endorsement, endorsement and endorsement.
Take out a copy of "Thousands of Amazing Herbs and Mushrooms" from the suitcase, and Maca read it carefully-this thing is a bit thick, and the plant species in it are quite diverse. After a short while.
I was just like that for a little while, and two more people came in one after another. It seems that because of more people, the black-haired Anthony has always been in an unnatural state from the beginning. He kept forcing himself to look out the window, pretending to be watching the scenery.
"Hello everyone! My name is Ernie McMillan and I'm glad to meet you." The blond boy who just came in looked very sunny. He looked at Maca sitting opposite him and said hello.
Maka nodded at him, introduced herself with a smile, and turned her head to look at the girl who came in last.
"Well, that ..." The girl was struggling with her long brown hair, and seemed to want to make them more conformable. It seemed that she was not satisfied with her natural, slightly curly hair.
"Lisa, Lisa Dupin ... oh!" She was talking, and suddenly she screamed in pain, probably pulling her hair a little because she was too hard.
"Hey, Maca! I said, what book are you reading?" Ernie was short and chubby, but his clothes were gorgeous and bright, and his family should look very good.
However, Maca did not find the arrogant temperament often found in noble children in his body, and seemed to be a friend worth making.
哦 "Oh, I'm reading the textbook!" Maca erected the book and showed Ernie the cover.
"Oh! I have this book at home, but I never thought of going to see it. It was too thick, and the title seemed mostly boring." Ernie scratched his head to make the original neat Blond hair becomes messy.
莎 Lisa sitting next to Maca looked at Ernie's hair and frowned, but didn't say anything, just turned her head to look at Maca.
Maka has always felt that maintaining a clean appearance is a necessary job, which can make others feel good about themselves. After all, most people still like a flat dress and a clean appearance, although Maca personally thinks that it is just as comfortable as it is.
Lisa looked at Maca secretly, then nodded with satisfaction.
Obviously, this cute-looking girl is not only very demanding on her appearance, but also on others.
After this, except for Anthony who basically didn't talk much, the other three had some preliminary exchanges, and said that they had a lot of exchanges in school. Of course, Lisa obviously prefers to talk to Maca, although Ernie, who is a bit rough-hearted, didn't realize this.
As for the harvest along the way, in addition to carrying dozens of herbs, the rest is probably "hurry to meet with Miss Hermione Granger"!
But her arrogant attitude, super fast speaking speed, and rushing rules of action really made Maca a little overwhelmed. After perfunctory, Hermione hurried away again.
By the way, she was looking for a toad for Neville—probably so. In fact, Maca didn't hear much, and at that time his attention was devoted to memorizing the name of the herbal medicine!
The Hogwarts express train traveled throughout the day, and it was getting dark as the speed slowed down.
The train's terminal is set across the lake from the back door of Hogwarts. The freshmen have to take a four-person boat to Hogwarts, which is probably one of Hogwarts' traditions. Of course, if you think you have seasickness problems in the future, maybe you can go around the lake to the front door, although it sounds a bit silly.
"Head down!" Shouted Hagrid, who was occupying a boat, as the first boats approached the cliff.
Everyone bowed their heads, and the boat carried them through the ivy tent covering the front of the cliff to the secret open entrance. They seemed to have reached the basement of the castle along a dark tunnel, and finally reached a place similar to an underground pier, and then climbed a piece of gravel and small pebbles.
新生 Under the light of the Haigti lamp, the freshmen climbed up a tunnel in the rock and finally reached a flat and moist meadow under the shadow of the castle.
Everyone climbed up a stone step and gathered in front of a huge oak door.
"Are you all here?" Hagrid raised his huge fist and knocked three times on the gate of the castle.
The door suddenly opened, and a tall black-haired witch in an emerald robe stood in front of the gate. She was serious, and apparently seemed a less confusing character.
"First-year freshman, Professor McGonagall," Hagrid said.
谢谢 "Thank you, Hagrid, and leave it to me to pick it up."
In the end is Hogwarts Castle, even the hall at the back door is scary. A row of flaming torches was inserted on the stone wall. uukanshu. The com ceiling is so high that the ceiling is almost invisible, and the front is a luxurious marble staircase that leads upstairs.
Noisy vocals came from the door on the right, and other senior students in Hogwarts must have arrived first. But Professor McGonagall did not take them directly inside, but led everyone to an empty house opposite the hall.
空 This empty room has little space, and the freshmen are rubbing their shoulders next to each other. Most of them are nervously and carefully watching everything around them.
Maca is no exception. He carried a suitcase and was crowded into the corner by the crowd. Even Owl Mafa reluctantly stood on top of his head.
"Welcome to Hogwarts," said Professor McGonagall. "The banquet is about to begin, but before you come to the restaurant, you first have to determine which college you each enter. The classification is An important ceremony, because during your stay, the college is like your home in Hogwarts ... "
Maca was crowded behind, and did not listen carefully to Professor McGonagall's interest, just waiting quietly for the beginning of everything.
…… "... I'll pick you up when it's ready there," Professor McGonagall said, "please keep quiet while you wait."
As soon as Professor McGonagall's voice fell, Maca suddenly heard a "mutter".
莱 "Lefford!" A boy shouted from the front, and Maca shook her head in tears.
"Please keep quiet!"
Professor Mi McGonagall repeated it in a stiff tone before leaving the room. Maca immediately heard the laughter of several people in front.
"Oh-!" Suddenly, several people screamed in front.
"What's the matter?" Maka murmured, tiptoeing forward, "Oh, that's--"
