Days to grind friendship at Hogwarts

"How did you know he was Remus?"

Before Sirius could introduce him, Glenn had already revealed the identity of the other party, which inevitably made him a little surprised.

Glenn pouted towards the luggage rack. It was a small box that had obviously been used for many years. The buckles had long been loose and could only be tightened with ropes. His name tag was printed on one corner of the box, and the gold paint on the letters had peeled off.

It's almost done.

Although the box was old and worn, it was clean and the ropes used to secure it were tied into neat knots.

"Hello, Glenn, just call me Remus." Lupine stood up with a smile, shook hands with Glenn, and said gently.

"Woo~"

There was another long whistle, the train swayed slightly and began to move slowly. The scenery outside the window gradually receded, and several parents who were waving goodbye to their children disappeared out of the window.

If Glenn's butterfly effect hadn't changed the course of the plot, this journey would have encountered a violent storm and an army of dementors accompanying it.

But now, it is sunny and picturesque all the way.

The three little ones, plus a little Sirius, chatted with great interest all the way. Lupine rarely spoke, but listened quietly with a faint smile on his face, seeming to enjoy this time.

Due to last year's incident, Draco, who always liked to cause trouble on the train, naturally canceled his repertoire and just passed by the door alone, without his two former followers.

Seeing his desolate look, Ron couldn't help but whisper to Harry.

On the contrary, Crabbe and Goyle, for some unknown reason, were surrounded by many Slytherin wizards.

According to the information Glenn heard, the two families seemed to have divided up a lot of the property that originally belonged to Lucius Malfoy, becoming the hottest upstart in the current pure-blood circle.

While the train was moving, the two of them also came to the door of the compartment where Harry and others were, looking eager to try. They probably wanted to have a sense of presence. However, seeing Glenn and two adult wizards present, they hesitated.

After much deliberation, I finally didn't have enough courage.

Other than that, there were no twists and turns along the way, until dusk fell, the sun set, and the train stopped smoothly at the Hogwarts platform.

Everyone followed the flow of people and got out of the car. From a distance, they saw the tall and muscular Hagrid loudly calling for the first-year wizards to gather at his place. With his height, he could see Glenn and the others together at a glance.

He waved vigorously, showed a cheerful smile, and pointed in the direction of the castle, indicating that he would meet at the banquet later.

Everyone greeted him and came to the place where the carriage stopped from another road.

Harry and Ron drove directly to the Whomping Willow last year, so it was their first time to ride the Hogwarts carriage.

After Glenn became proficient in literacy again, he invited them to get in the car and set off, wandering all the way into the school gate and stopping in front of the castle gate.

The opening dinner was no different from usual. When the little wizards arrived one after another and sat down together, Professor McGonagall came to the teacher's table carrying a triangular stool and a sorting hat and announced the start of the sorting ceremony.

Under the watchful eyes of all the students, the Sorting Hat sang a new song that he had been polishing for a whole year.

After the singing, Professor McGonagall unfolded the parchment and asked the new students whose names were called to take the Sorting Hat's test one by one.

"Time flies so fast, we have all seen the four sorting ceremonies." The actor Marcos said with emotion.

"Yeah." Eddie nodded, "I remember you were more nervous than them back then!"

"Welcome!" After the sorting ceremony, Dumbledore stood up and said loudly: "Welcome everyone back to Hogwarts! I believe that you are more interested in the delicious food at the dinner than an old man's clichés.

.”

Except for the freshmen who had just entered school, all the young wizards were already accustomed to Dumbledore's humor and laughed together. When the laughter subsided, he spoke again: "In order not to be resented by you, I announce that the banquet has begun!"

Since there were no Dementors arriving this year, Dumbledore did not rush to deliver a speech, but instead let everyone fill their stomachs first.

The short cheers ended quickly, followed by the intensive clashing of knives, forks and dinner plates. Although the snacks on the train were delicious, they were not meals, and the little wizards were already ravenous.

After a storm, the leftovers on the table were cleared away by the elves and replaced with desserts.

Dumbledore waited for everyone to chat for a while, then stood up again and cleared his throat.

"I think if you don't speak quickly, your minds will be occupied by sleepyheads." He joked, with a kind smile on his face, "Okay, next, I want to announce some of the latest teachers.

appointment."

Everyone put down their knives and forks and focused on Dumbledore.

"I believe you all know that Professor Gilderoy Rohart, who directed your Defense Against the Dark Arts course last year, went to the Ministry of Magic due to job relocation, and this position naturally became vacant. Fortunately, I soon became the

Found the right person.”

He said, turning slightly sideways and pointing in the direction of Lupine and Sirius.

"First, Professor Remus Lupin!"

Lu Ping, who was dressed simply, stood up and bowed slightly to everyone.

There was a burst of polite applause, but it was not very enthusiastic. He did not have the opportunity to show off his superb skills in driving away dementors on the train, and his outfit was too ordinary, far inferior to the glamorous Lockhart last year.

"—and, Professor Sirius Black!"

This time, the reaction of the little wizards was obviously much more lively. As a recent topical figure, Sirius is quite popular.

After being wronged for more than ten years, the hero who fought against the mysterious man, the only one who escaped from Azkaban, refused the job invitation from the Ministry of Magic...

With the support of various labels, he is far more popular than Lupine.

"Everyone must be a little strange as to why I would introduce two new professors to you all at once." Dumbledore lowered his hands slightly, motioning for everyone to quiet down, and continued, "This is because the Defense Against the Dark Arts in the next year

The class will be taught by these two professors."

One course, two professors.

It was the first time for the little wizards here to encounter this situation, and they couldn't help but whisper and discuss it in low voices.

Dumbledore looked back at the two of them, watching everyone's discussion with interest.

Glenn quietly looked at Professor Snape who was sitting next to him. He once again missed out on the position he wanted, and fell into the hands of his sworn enemy during his student days. What was even more annoying was that there were two sworn enemies at once.

Sure enough, there was obvious anger on his already sallow face, and you could even see the undisguised hatred in it.
