Additionally, I have many new works readers may be interested in. Go look, if you wish!
It has been a long tradition for all wizards to intimidate newly admitted wizards during the sorting ceremony. Even a young wizard born into a wizarding family won't get any real information before then. I had been caught in the rain, so I chose to tear up my children's umbrellas as well.
With silent understanding, this fine tradition is said to have been preserved for hundreds of years, and no one has broken the unspoken rules to this day. Obviously, the twins' current plan is to scare Wayne.
"Ahem!" George cleared his throat and quickly got into character. His solemn and slightly frightened expression made Wayne wonder why he was a wizard instead of an actor. Wouldn't it be fun to go to Hollywood and make a lot of money?
"I really don't want to think about what I experienced... it was too scary," Fred sighed in agreement. "Our class requires young wizards to persist under the hands of trolls for ten minutes, and they will be assigned to different houses based on their performance."
"By the way, do you know what a troll is?"
Wayne nodded cooperatively and showed a scared expression. "I know, I bought a copy of 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.'"
"That's good!" George felt happy, and his story felt more real now. "Charge at the front, and the bravest will be assigned to Gryffindor. The one who uses strategy will be assigned to Ravenclaw, and the one who persists in practice will be assigned to Hufflepuff."
"What about Slytherin?" Wayne asked curiously.
"They," Fred rolled his eyes, "they used the back door."
Cedric, although mentally complaining about the twins' nonsense, nodded seriously. "Yes, that's it."
The twins looked at him in surprise. They didn't expect Cedric to cooperate with them. As long as they didn't cause trouble, but Cedric actually took the initiative to help.
Good boy, it turns out that you, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, are also full of mischief. Cedric blinked innocently. What's wrong? Is there any problem? I'm just continuing the tradition of Hogwarts, why are you looking at me like that?
Wayne still looked scared but was sneering inside. It's pretty good. If he hadn't traveled through time, he might have been deceived by these guys.
"Then what should I do? If it doesn't work, I can go home. I don't know a single magic spell at the moment," Wayne showed his 'panic' so vividly that the three of them almost had stomach cramps from laughing. They still pretended to give him advice.
After a while, the three finally speculated that their entrance test this semester should be to defeat a ghoul before the end of the journey. If they weren't afraid of scaring Wayne to tears, the twins and Cedric would probably wait until the train stopped.
The train drove through the golden wheat fields and gradually penetrated into the vast no-man's land. The train was traveling extremely fast, estimated to cover one hundred kilometers an hour.
For a 'classic car' that has been in service since the last century, it's pretty good. Wayne took out a compass from his pocket and then took out parchment and a quill to write and draw.
"Wayne, what are you doing?" the twins asked curiously.
"Oh, I'm calculating the exact location of Hogwarts."
"We will be in Scotland in about two hours."
The twins looked at each other and said in unison, "Why are you calculating this?"
"Idle time is still idle. You should always find something to do," Wayne replied as he noted down some angles from his compass.
"Since you're bored, let's play crackling cards," Fred smiled and took out a set of red playing cards.
These cards looked no different from Muggle cards, but they could explode. When you throw out four 2s and shout "Bomb!" boldly, you'll see why.
"Aren't you going to do your homework?" Cedric asked, feeling a bit helpless. He was reading "Dark Force: Self-Defense" to pass the time. If they played cards, it would be too noisy to read.
Fred shrugged, "We still have one night left. What's the rush? Join us."
Soon, the sound of crackling and explosions filled the room. Every time the cards exploded in the twins' hands, they almost hit George's eyebrows. The twins wondered why the cards were safe in Wayne's hands but turned into a powder keg when they held them.
Cedric also looked at Wayne suspiciously. He felt that Wayne had a trick, like senior wizards who could sense when the cards would explode.
But Wayne? Impossible. He was just a little wizard who had not yet entered school. Shaking his head, Cedric dismissed the thought.
Boom, boom, boom! The knock on the door rang again. George, whose face was a bit gray, quickly put the cards on the table and opened the door.
"Have you seen Laifu? Oh, that's a toad. Eh, Wayne?"
Outside stood a girl with a little fat boy. The girl was Hermione. After she spoke, she saw Wayne sitting by the window and looked surprised.
After returning the book to Wayne, she went to Diagon Alley a few more times but never ran into him. After boarding the train, she searched everywhere but couldn't find him, so she finally found another compartment.
"Hermione, long time no see." Wayne smiled and waved to the little witch. Today's Hermione looked cuter than before. Her hair had clearly been cared for and wasn't allowed to spread wildly.
"I looked for you after I boarded, but I couldn't find you," Hermione said quickly, but then she saw the fat boy hiding behind her. "Did you see a toad?"
Several people shook their heads. Cedric tried to comfort him, "Don't worry. Toads are very intelligent. Your Laifu may just be bored and went out to play. He'll come back to you."
"I hope so," Neville said, almost crying. "If Grandma finds out I lost him before school started, she'll definitely scold me."
Hermione told Neville to keep looking and continued to check each carriage with him.
After they left, Fred looked at Wayne. "Do you know that little witch?"
"We met in Diagon Alley. Why?" Wayne replied, puzzled.
"Nothing," Fred shook his head. Then he and George said in unison, "Seeing that little witch is like seeing a young Professor McGonagall!"
Wayne: "..."
