Hogwarts behind-the-scenes big boss

Chapter 38 The Slytherin Code of Conduct

Moriarty gestured to the new students at the end of the long table, "First-year Slytherin students, follow me."

Pansy and the other three immediately stood up and followed him. When Harry saw Neville standing up, he hurriedly swallowed the last bite of cake and followed him. The other freshmen followed behind them.

"Wow, sir, you are taking the new students to the Slytherin dungeons yourself?" Jericho whistled when he saw this scene.

"On this grand occasion today, you shouldn't do anything frivolous," Lilith scolded: "Don't forget, we are Slytherin, you will bring bad luck to the new students."

Jericho shrugged nonchalantly: "Okay, okay, it looks like there are good talents among the freshmen that Moriarty thinks are worth cultivating."

Lilith looked at Moriarty leading the freshmen out of the auditorium and turning onto the ladder. "It's rare to see him take action personally. The last freshman he valued was Soldaya Selwyn."

Soldaya smiled and said: "Let's go and see which new student can win the favor of sir - don't forget the rule of hidden prefects, I hope it will be a battle between dragons and tigers."

Lilith's face darkened. The hidden prefect rule has not been revoked yet, and Moriarty still has a private dormitory. It's really an advantage for him.

Old students also began to leave one after another.

On the other side, Moriarty led the new student inside the castle, learning the way and taking a tour at the same time.

When Moriarty was explaining to the new students how the floating ladder would float up and down and where the various corridors lead, he recalled the scene in his first grade. Time flew by so fast.

The memory flashed by, Moriarty squeezed his right hand gently, and the Slytherin staff appeared in his hand.

"Although these floating ladders may not be what you want, but I just need this -"

Moriarty knocked the end of his staff against the ground of the floating ladder.

The floating ladders are like building blocks, linked together step by step to build a road leading to the Slytherin dungeon.

"Wow~"

The new students roared with adoration.

"This is the authority of Slytherin," Moriarty slowly glanced at the first-year snake, "In Hogwarts, you will become the best wizard, and in Slytherin, you will get what you want.

That self.”

Then Moriarty strode up, followed by the new students, some of whom didn't quite understand the meaning of this passage, and Harry was one of them.

As they approached the Slytherin dungeon, Moriarty talked about the rules of hidden prefects again. The new students couldn't help but panic when they heard that a duel was about to break out between them.

"But sir, I don't know magic!" Harry suddenly asked: "I haven't learned any spells!"

It was difficult for Harry to describe his mood at this time. He tried his best to become a wizard like Moriarty and Marcus, but he found that he was getting further and further away from them.

Moriarty didn't reply and stared at Harry expressionlessly.

A thin smile came from the side, and Harry rolled his eyes. He knew it was Pansy without even looking.

Sure enough, Pansy made no secret of her ridicule towards Harry: "No way? The famous savior can't know a single spell?"

Nott spoke glibly: "No one forces you to be a hidden prefect, Potter. Maybe you will become the first student in Slytherin to give up challenging the hidden prefect because you don't know magic? Who knows."

Some of the little snakes chuckled, and Harry noticed that Moriarty turned his head away and lowered his head in disappointment.

At this time they came to a room similar to a basement, with a thick stone wall at the end.

Moriarty stopped and said, "You saw the entrance to the Slytherin common room. You need a password to enter."

"I know the previous password was pure blood!" Pansy raised her hand high and said loudly.

"Yes, yes," Moriarty smiled faintly: "Not only pure blood, but also glory, they are all broken passwords. Last year I made a new set of passwords, snake fetus, this is the first

One, I will change one every week from now on, remember it."

"There is a stone door hidden in the stone wall. Behind the stone door is our common room. Of course, we prefer to call it its old name - Slytherin Dungeon."

After saying this, Moriarty read the command to the stone wall, and the stone wall opened from the middle. Moriarty walked in first, and the little snakes followed and swarmed in.

When Harry walked in, he was really shocked by the luxurious facilities inside. He also saw the octopus at the bottom of the lake through the large glass screen.

The old students had returned, and Moriarty walked back among them and cleared his throat to the new students.

"Now I'm going to tell you something about Slytherin."

The freshman raised his head, his eyes blank.

"You may not be surprised why you were sorted into Slytherin because of your bloodline! Yes, most of you have wizard blood."

"But you must be wondering about the new students who weren't sorted into Slytherin - what happened to them? Don't they have blood? Don't they have a wizarding father or mother?"

Pansy and the three of them all thought of Draco, yes, why were the Malfoy children not sorted in?

"That's because the advantages of Slytherin in you are greater than the advantages of the other three houses."

"You may be as brave as a knight, you may be as smart as a wise man, you may be kind-hearted, but the desire for magic in your heart and the nobility in your soul far exceed these, so you are here."

The little snakes were so excited that they nodded repeatedly.

"For this you need to know the Slytherin Code of Conduct." Moriarty's voice rose one degree.

Lilith whispered: "What? He won't be so rigid and dogmatic."

But then Moriarty said: "Many people must be thinking - oh, it's so long-winded. After listening to Professor Dumbledore's speech, you are here to speak again?"

The old students laughed, and Moriarty shook his head with emotion: "This is because several major events may happen this year - in fact, you should have heard that in recent years, Hogwarts has not happened every year.

A few big things, it seems like it’s not a magic school.”

"Hahaha..." Jericho and the others laughed loudest at the joke.

"Okay, let me make this short."

"The so-called Slytherin code of conduct is just the advantages of Slytherin students."

"1. Stay elegant at all times."

"2. Reject any form of insult. So stop talking about Muggle-born wizards. There are no students in Slytherin like that."

"3. Don't make a promise easily unless you can easily fulfill it."

"4. We are not obsessive-compulsive, but we strive to be perfect in everything we do - unless you do nothing. Of course, if anyone does nothing, I request that he be put in Azkaban."

"5. Adapt to the environment. If you can't adapt, then change the environment."

"6. Be proud of Hogwarts, be proud of Slytherin! Slytherin is an inseparable part of Hogwarts. I hope you can first think of yourself as a Hogwarts person, and then

That's the Slytherin."

"7. Honor is more important than anything else."

"This honor is not about how famous you are, classmate Potter. You are called the savior. Tell me, can you do magic?"

"I won't, sir." Harry replied resoundingly. Instead of feeling ashamed, he felt very proud.

Harry didn't like being called his savior.

Moriarty continued: "This honor is not about how much wealth you have. Classmate Parkinson, your family is very rich. Tell me, which one is richer compared to your family or mine? Your family is like a beggar compared to mine."

"

"This is also the reason why I abolished the passwords of Glory. Those are all false names."

"Then what is honor?" Moriarty said solemnly: "It is the breakthrough and discovery of wizards in the field of magic. This confidence derived from magic will make your soul exude deep pride. This kind of honor can

It’s Slytherin’s pursuit.”

"In other words, this is the real Slytherin."

"Gryffindor is the one who bravely possesses and impacts in magic! Ravenclaw is the one who uses wisdom to see, find and obtain in magic. Hufflepuff is the one who calmly accepts everything given by magic."

"Believe me, no one knows the Big Four better than me."

After Moriarty finished speaking, both old and new students applauded enthusiastically and excitedly.

"Okay, let's start the selection of hidden prefects."

Moriarty said and stepped back, leaving space for the first-year snake. Lilith whispered, "Listen to your tone, your favorite thing is not magic."

"Huh? Have you asked me this question before?"

While they were talking, the hidden prefect was chosen!

"Neville Longbottom!" Prefect Gemma clapped her hands: "Congratulations."

Neville smiled sheepishly. He felt that he had taken advantage. If Draco Malfoy were here, he might not be his opponent.

It was getting late, and when it was time to go to sleep, Harry sadly found that he had been assigned to a dormitory with Nott, Crabbe, and Goyle. Naturally, he had been made things difficult and crowded.

Lying on the soft and spacious bed, Harry tossed and turned.

Pansy's ridicule and Nott's difficulties all dragged Harry into the abyss of self-confidence.

Harry remembered the embarrassment of not being able to do magic. During the selection of hidden prefects, he could only watch from the side, and he was all alone.

But after Moriarty's words and Dumbledore's speech, Harry's desire to become an outstanding wizard became even stronger.

"What should I do?"

"Am I not suitable for Slytherin?"

Harry couldn't sleep and opened his eyes in a daze.

What Harry didn't know was that besides himself, there was another person who thought the same way tonight.

In Dumbledore's principal's office, Professor Snape shouted...

Also having trouble sleeping were the new students Draco and Ron.

The two were assigned to the same dormitory, and as expected they had a quarrel, which frightened the remaining two roommates: Seamus Finnegan and Dean Thomas into nightmares at night.

Ron lay on the bed, feeling numb. When Dumbledore went to check on him and said there was nothing he could do, Ron shed tears sadly.

When he thought that he would no longer have the rights and functions to be a man, Ron buried his face in the quilt and cried silently.

Draco, on the other hand, had not yet recovered from being sorted. He was out of tune with Gryffindor all night. He stared, sometimes sad and sometimes angry.

Moriarty didn't know all this, and he didn't have time to think about the mood of the three freshmen, because when he returned to his dormitory, Violet followed him.

She lifted up the wizard's robe, leaned against him, and kissed her lips affectionately: "Master, let's take a bath together, Master~"

Late at night, Tonks knocked on the bedroom door secretly again.
