Chapter 452 Sorting Dinner

Looking at Ginny's big, pitiful eyes, Mike shook his head helplessly.

He originally wanted to continue watching for a while to observe Harry's progress during the summer vacation, but now it seemed that if he didn't take action, he might become enemies with Ginny and the others.

Taking a deep breath, Mike took out his wand and flicked it.

Immediately afterwards, a huge circle of magic power swept out with Mike as the center along with fierce air waves.

Whether it was the unified protection spell formed by Emma and the others or the safety protection spell released by Harry Navi, they were all vulnerable to this vast wave of magic, and were swept away the moment they came into contact with it.

The ensuing waves of air hit everyone hard, knocking both sides away.

The sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground were mixed with the pained cries of men and women. Mike did not hold back from this blow. Emma and the others dared to bully Harry so blatantly. He had to give them some punishment.

Emma and others who were thrown away originally wanted to stand up and continue fighting, but then Mike's magically blessed voice came over.

"Stop it, Harry is my friend."

As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately came to a standstill. Emma and others were obviously at a loss, while Harry and Neville were lying on the ground panting, and Ginny was groping Harry's body with a nervous look on her face. He stood and ignored Neville.

'Poor Neville. ’

Secretly mourning for Neville for less than a second, Mike then looked at Professor Slughorn beside him and said:

"Professor, I think it's getting late. Maybe our dinner party should end."

"ah?"

Slughorn woke up from his sluggish state after hearing this, and couldn't help but scream.

He was completely shocked by Mike's performance just now. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that there was a school student who could break all the protection spells and safety protection spells in one fell swoop.

Although these two high-level protection spells are just inferior goods released by the little wizard, they are high-level protection spells after all!

What's more, Mike didn't use any powerful magic spell at all just now. He just exploded the magic power in his body and did all this. Even he couldn't do this kind of thing!

But what surprised Slughorn the most was not Mike's strength, but Mike's prestige among students.

He could tell just from the fact that these students turned a blind eye to his words and even secretly ridiculed them, that these students were all arrogant and arrogant people.

But this group of naughty kids behaved like puppies in front of Mike, and they became quiet after being yelled at.

Slughorn's old brain is spinning rapidly, and he has secretly promoted Mike to the first echelon of his attention list, the same level as Dumbledore and Harry Potter.

"Oh! Is it already so late?" Professor Slughorn, who had come back to his senses, looked at the dim light outside the car window and said with some pretentiousness, "Everyone, please go back and change clothes quickly. We will arrive in Huolin soon. Gwartz."

Hearing this, Mike nodded. Slughorn was a smart man. He understood the meaning of his words and did not continue to pursue the matter. Instead, he let it go decisively, which made him very satisfied.

He smiled and bowed slightly to Slughorn, then looked at Emma and others who were lying on their backs expressionlessly and said:

"What are you still doing? Get moving!"

After saying this, Emma and others, who had been slumped on the ground and completely ignored Slughorn's orders, started to move quickly, and upon seeing this, Slughorn's smile became even more embarrassed. .

However, Mike obviously didn't care about him at this time. Mike quickly came to Harry's side, helped him up and asked:

"Are you okay? Harry."

"I...I'm okay, it's just...Neville..."

Harry avoided looking at Mike, but pointed his finger at Neville beside him.

At this time, Neville looked in a very embarrassed state. The safe guarding spells summoned by the two of them had a very small range and could not completely cover the two of them. This resulted in a lot of spilled spells hitting him and Harry. Li's body caused some damage to them.

"It's finished...my robe...grandma will definitely scold me to death!"

The scarred Neville looked at his school uniform robe that had become tattered with red eyes, and he was so aggrieved that he almost cried.

Seeing this, Mike shook his head, flicked his wand and cast a restoration spell.

Under the influence of magic, Neville's robe was rapidly restoring itself at a speed visible to the naked eye. Neville was startled when he saw this. He hurriedly got up from the ground and stammered to Mike:

"Merlin's beard! Uh...I mean...thank you, Mac!"

"You're welcome."

Mike responded, then looked at Harry again,

"Harry, we are going to school soon, you go change clothes first. In addition, I will solve the problem of those people's malice towards you, please believe me. But I will also need some time, so I will ask you for the time being. Try to be as low-key as possible.”

Harry said thank you in an imperceptible voice, and then limped out of the carriage with Ginny's help. Neville followed them step by step alone, smiling forcefully at Mike as he walked. Wave.

Shaking his head, Mike said goodbye to Professor Slughorn and walked out of the car under the latter's somewhat stiff smile.

"Mike, are you okay? I heard there was a fight here."

Outside the carriage, Franklin had been waiting early. When Mike appeared, he immediately leaned over and asked nervously.

"I'm fine. It's just that many people in Hogwarts are a bit hostile to Harry. Please make some arrangements. First, let our people calm down and stop them from causing trouble for Harry."

"Isn't this useless?" Franklin said with some embarrassment, "Even if they don't take action, others will..."

"Just take it one step at a time."

"Understood."

Mike walked forward expressionlessly, while Franklin walked towards other cars.

…

Half an hour later, Mike got off the Yeqi carriage and officially set foot on the land of Hogwarts.

Hagrid is taking care of those Ye Qi who have completed their tasks in this square.

Nowadays, the relationship between Mike and Hagrid has improved a lot, but Mike still doesn't like this sloppy half-giant with weird behavior.

So, Mike pretended not to see the other party and sneaked into the castle hall.

As in previous years, there are four long tables neatly arranged in the Hogwarts hall. Countless lit candles are floating in the air, illuminating the huge auditorium while also covering up the magic ceiling above. The starlight made it look dark like an ordinary black ceiling.

At this moment, there were many people sitting sparsely in the auditorium. The people at the Ravenclaw table spotted Mike immediately, and surrounded him and brought him to the head of the Ravenclaw table. above.

This is a very symbolic act. The person sitting in this position in every college is almost the uncrowned king of the college, or the most respected person.

In previous years, this position could only be occupied by the seventh-grade prefect of Ravenclaw House, but this year the seventh-grade prefect sat under Mike. Not only did he not feel dissatisfied at all, he even happily told Mike about his summer vacation. interesting anecdotes and expressed congratulations on Mike Owls' high score in the exam.

Mike responded calmly, but his eyes kept drifting to the staff seat. He wanted to confirm the current status of Dumbledore's injury, which was closely related to his next plan.

Finally, about ten minutes before the sorting ceremony began, Dumbledore and the professors arrived at their seats, and the Sorting Hat and its big chair also arrived at their seats.

There was no need for Dumbledore to direct. The originally noisy hall suddenly became quiet. Everyone was familiar with the next process, and they all turned their attention to the door of the auditorium.

With Dumbledore's slight cough, the door to the auditorium finally opened.

Professor McGonagall, who was wearing a slim lace robe, raised his head, and like a big rooster leading the chickens to move, he quickly walked into the auditorium with the excited freshmen behind him, and finally stopped. Next to the Sorting Hat.

At this time, the eyes of all the old students in the auditorium were also focused on them. They were all silent and had serious expressions. This was a welcome ceremony they held every year for new students to satisfy their desire to see The funny expression on the nervous expression of the new student.

Facts have proved that they succeeded every time. Just like now, the freshmen were so nervous and scared that they almost started to tremble.

After a period of staring at each other, the Sorting Hat began to sing the weird song it had been preparing for a year.

Like last year, it's a song that encourages everyone to come together and get through this, and that's not saying much.

After he finished singing, the sorting ceremony finally got down to business - Professor McGonagall began to roll call.

Seeing the boys and girls sitting on the high chair with confused and nervous expressions, everyone felt quite touched in their hearts.

"Hey, Mike, do you think we were as stupid as them back then?"

Franklin asked without looking back, but after hearing his voice, Mike was startled.

"When did you come? You scared me!"

"Oh, really? I was already here."

"Is the mission accomplished?"

"Of course, there's nothing I can't accomplish personally." Franklin muttered, but the next moment he suddenly poked Mike with his arm and said slightly excitedly, "Look, this year's No. A Ravenclaw has appeared! Mike, get ready, as the leader, you have to greet her!"

Mike also came to his senses after hearing this. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the Sorting Hat, and saw a girl wearing a pair of thick glasses walking timidly towards this side.

Seeing Mike looking at her, her timid steps stopped immediately, with a look of fear on her face.

Seeing this, Mike quickly showed a kind smile and stepped forward to welcome the girl back.

At this time, other Ravenclaws also stood up. They smiled and clapped, welcoming the arrival of the new members.

Perhaps because of shyness, the girl's originally lowered head dropped even lower, and Mike, who was holding her hand, could clearly feel the stiffness of her body.

Mike placed her in the seat reserved for new students in the middle of the long table. As soon as she sat down, the Ravenclaws gathered around her and comforted the little girl with words.

And Mike returned to the first position to welcome the next new student.

This scene was repeated on the long tables in other houses, but the situation on Gryffindor's side was obviously even more different.

Perhaps they had already heard the legend about Harry on the train. Regardless of whether they were born in the wizarding world or not, all the new students in Gryffindor gathered around Harry as soon as they arrived at the Gryffindor table. People around him greeted him excitedly.

However, Harry was obviously not in a good mood at the moment, and the injuries all over his body were not healed yet, so he could only deal with these little brats with a smile on his face.

This scene caught the attention of many people. Except for a small number of Harry's buddies in Gryffindor, almost everyone was snickering, especially the Slytherin side. Draco almost died from laughter. It's past.

The sharp laughter made Harry's face become even more gloomy. If he could, he wanted to rush up and punch Draco in the face that didn't deserve a punch!

"Harry,"

Hermione looked at Harry worriedly and reached out to gently pat Harry's shoulder.

But the latter pushed her hand away and looked at the bare dinner plate in front of him without saying a word.

The Gryffindor freshmen around him dispersed after seeing Harry's dark face.

Twenty minutes later, the sorting ceremony finally ended.

Mike sat back in his chair and breathed a sigh of relief.

Receiving new students is really not an easy job for him. Those naughty kids are really difficult to deal with.

At this time, Dumbledore stood up on the faculty bench. He looked around at the students sitting in the audience with a smile on his face. His eyes were as gentle as a hard-working farmer looking at his thriving crops.

"Uh-huh." Dumbledore covered his mouth and coughed lightly. The raised hand was tied with a thick layer of silk cloth, making it difficult for people to see the true condition of the hand. But despite this, Everyone can still see that the hand wrapped in cloth has shrunk significantly compared to the other hand, and it looks very weird.

Everyone in the audience turned to look at Dumbledore after hearing the cough. Upon seeing this, Dumbledore said:

"Welcome! New friends and old friends, welcome home! Do you know? In my heart at this moment, I have countless things to say to you. But since you are all hungry now, so... let's start eating Bar!"
