days at Hogwarts

Chapter 12 Reaching the Destination!
Loren swallowed the candy in his mouth, chocolate lemon sweet core, it tasted really good.

Hermione slowed down, wiped the corners of her eyes, and said to herself: Magic snacks, magic snacks...

Neville pushed open the door, wanting to scold Loren.At the end of the day, he committed a coward again and froze in place.The two people in the compartment also saw the little fat man who pushed the door in.

"What's the matter?" Loren asked.

Neville faltered a few times: "I, I thought you were bullying the freshmen, but it doesn't seem like you are."

Hermione blushed a little, but explained, "I was scared by that fun candy."

Neville froze for a moment, looking at the box on the table.

Loren invited: "Heap of cockroaches, do you want some?" He had a good impression of this little fat man who was timid but still stood up.

Neville quickly waved his hands: "It's nothing." Even wizards, only some people would like cockroaches.

Loren held out his hand, "Meet me, my name is Loren Morgan, a first-year freshman."

Neville shook hands and responded, "My name is Neville Longbottom, and I'm also a freshman."

Hermione also said, "I'm Hermione Granger."

After the three got to know each other, they sat down and started chatting and eating snacks.

Hermione was full of curiosity about Neville, who came from a wizarding family, but Neville was a little shy and not good at speaking. Loren adjusted it, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant.

After a while, Loren felt as if something was wrong, and he remembered the plot.He looked up at Neville, and at this moment Longbottom had completely forgotten about the pet, and was happily knocking on the strange-flavored beans.

Loren waited for a while, and couldn't help reminding: "Did you just look for something?"

Neville slapped his head and exclaimed, "I forgot that my pet was lost. I was looking for my pet just now."

Hermione was still sorting out the connotation of this sentence, Loren said, "Let's look for it together."

The three of them started to look for the toad in the carriage. There was no other way, and they planned to ask each compartment one by one.

There were some compartments Neville had already been in, and his expression grew more and more dejected during this time.The previous behavior of happily eating snacks seemed to make Neville feel more guilty and remorseful.

"Did any of you see a toad? Neville lost a toad." Hermione pushed open the door and spoke. She was already a little anxious. Hermione's mood was affected by Neville's state, and her tone was not friendly.

In the compartment were Harry and Ron.Black hair and green eyes, with some broken glasses: the person next to him has red hair and some small freckles on his face, which Loren recognized immediately.

"We've already told him, but we didn't see it." Ron's tone was also a little impatient, and he was holding up his wand to dye something yellow.

Hermione saw it too, "Oh. Are you casting magic? Then let's open our eyes." After speaking, she sat down directly.

Ron was stunned, "Oh... alright." He waved his wand awkwardly, and began to cast a spell.

【Daisies, Sweet Cream and Sunshine, Turn This Stupid Fat Mouse Yellow】

Nothing happened, the fat gray mouse was fast asleep.

Loren's eyes also fell on the gray mouse.

No one noticed that his blue pupils were getting lighter and shadows were floating in his eyes.Loren saw a layer of black and blood-red dim light floating on the mouse. This was the Pettigrew Peter.

Inexplicably, Loren thought of that sentence, Shushu me...

The strange vision dissipated quickly, and the others must not have seen such a sight.

Loren noticed something strange in his eyes, but he didn't know what it was, so he planned to wait until Hogwarts.

In the cubicle, Hermione had calmed down, fixed Harry's glasses, and introduced herself and Loren.

Almost at the destination, she reminded several people to change into their robes, and was about to say goodbye to Harry and Ron, and then went to look for Neville's toad.

Loren also couldn't remember where Neville's toad was found in the movie, but he had other plans.He took the two of them directly to the seniors for help.

The three of them walked not far away, and saw a boy with platinum blonde hair and a pale complexion leading two boys who were a little taller than him, and the group headed for Harry's cubicle.

Hermione continued the conversation in the cubicle, guessing which house she would be assigned to.She wants to go to Gryffindor, and Ravenclaw is fine, preferably not Slytherin.

Neville said his grandma wanted him to be sorted into Gryffindor and be brave.But he thought he would go to Hufflepuff.

The three of them walked towards the front compartment and finally saw the target.This person also has red hair and a shiny silver letter "P" pinned to his chest.

Loren stepped forward to say hello, "Hello, we are freshmen this year, are you a prefect?"

The red-haired boy looked a little smug, his eyebrows raised high, as if it was a proud thing to be recognized by a freshman as a prefect, but he quickly restrained himself and responded: "Yes, I am the prefect Percy Way Sly, can I help you?"

Hermione's crisp voice sounded: "This is Neville, his pet toad can't be found, can you help us find it?"

Neville flushed.

Percy Weasley relaxed, just looking for a pet, "Of course, it's not too difficult for a prefect."

He took out his wand, flicked and pointed.

【flying around】

As the spell sounded, an ugly toad flew out of Neville's pocket and landed on the ground where the wand was pointing.

"Oh! I had it in my pocket, I forgot!" Neville exclaimed, blushing.

Hermione exclaimed, "Is this the Flying Curse?"

Percy's smile grew warmer with the compliment, "You'll learn it, too."

The three bid farewell to the prefect and returned to their respective compartments.Loren changed into his robe, and Hermione shared the uneaten candies on the table.

"The train will arrive at Hogwarts in 5 minutes. Please leave your luggage on the train. We will send you to school." The voice of the announcement echoed on the train.

"What kind of magic is this? Is the voice loud?" Hermione asked. The little witch is full of enthusiasm and curiosity about everything in the wizarding world.

Several people flocked to the door while talking, and the people in the whole carriage squeezed to get off at the door, pushing and shoving.Neville was scattered, and Loren squeezed Hermione out.

After getting off the station, following Hagrid's call, they stumbled along a path, walked out of the woods, and came to a lake.

On the high hillside on the other side of the lake stands a majestic castle with many spiers, and the windows are shining with beautiful light, like stars.

There were four people in a boat, Loren and Hermione boarded the boat first, and Neville also came to find them, followed by a boy with light brown hair.

At first Loren didn't pay attention, but when the boy himself introduced him as Seamus Finnigan, Loren's eyes widened, it was you!Blasting ghosts!
The boats sailed across the calm lake and passed through the vines. The reflections on the lake rippled with the water waves, sparkling, and the stars swayed in the water.

Feeling this scene, Loren had a different mood.

On the boat, Hermione was still discussing the issue of house sorting. Loren opened his mouth and said, "I heard that there will be a test for admission, and those who fail will be expelled from Hogwarts."

Hermione turned pale with fright, and began to mutter to herself: "What to do, I still have a lot of knowledge I haven't memorized, and I haven't finished memorizing the textbooks, I will definitely be kicked out by Professor McGonagall..."

Neville and Seamus also started to panic. At this moment, Loren showed a cheap expression: "Hey, I made it up to scare you. Hogwarts hasn't expelled students for many years."

Hermione relaxed, and slapped Loren's thigh hard. Loren clutched his leg and began to act strange.Hermione felt a little guilty seeing him like this, and just about to speak, Loren owed again: "Hey, I'm pretending."

Hermione was out of breath and ignored him.Neville and Seamus started discussing some scary rumors about the separation again, putting pressure on each other.

The boat went ashore in this way, passed through the tunnel, walked across a meadow, and came to the gate of the castle, where Professor McGonagall was already waiting.
