Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

[Dear Mom and Dad:

Although I just left home, I already miss you. I hope you are in good health and happy.

Yesterday we took a crimson steam train to Hogwarts. The school is a majestic castle with meadows, forests and lakes nearby. I have to say that the scenery here in the morning is very charming.

It was already evening when we arrived at the school, and the first thing was the sorting. I think you also know that Hogwarts is divided into four colleges-the brave and generous Gryffindor, the upright and loyal Hufflepuff, the wise and knowledgeable Ravenclaw, and the ambitious Slytherin...]

Wade paused slightly when writing here.

He suddenly thought that among the four colleges, the other three colleges valued the quality of students when enrolling, but Ravenclaw only required ability.

So... smart and brave people may go to Gryffindor, such as Dumbledore and Hermione; smart and loyal people are admitted to Hufflepuff, such as Scamander (the protagonist of the "Fantastic Beasts" series) and Cedric; smart and ambitious people are in Slytherin, such as Voldemort and Snape.

So what about the "smart people" who stay in Ravenclaw? Maybe they are smart and quick-witted, but smart people are often better at seeking benefits and avoiding harm, and are more likely to retreat in the face of difficulties and dangers, choosing a more relaxed and beneficial way for themselves.

In order to achieve something, in addition to the mind, spiritual qualities are the core of the driving force - either to move forward courageously, or to be tenacious, or to be ambitious. Smart people who are immersed in their own world and do their own thing often become weirdos in the eyes of others.

So in the plot, Ravenclaw has the least presence among the four colleges of Hogwarts. The Ravenclaw members who appeared - whether they are studying or have graduated, except Qiu Zhang, are more or less neurotic.

Thinking of the Sorting Hat saying that he was the most suitable for Ravenclaw, Wade frowned somewhat unhappily. Then he thought again - what kind of person he was was not something that a hat could decide. Moreover, the Sorting Hat had made mistakes more than once or twice, such as when it sorted the cowardly Peter Pettigrew into Gryffindor.

Wade paused for a moment and continued to write -

[A talking hat sorted me into Ravenclaw, which I think is the best recognition of my mind. I do intend to learn as much as possible during the seven years of studying, because I heard that there is no place in the whole of Britain with a richer collection of books than Hogwarts. It must be said that the wizarding world is far less far-sighted than the Muggle government in this regard. There is no so-called public library here. The precious books are either hidden in the school or in the private study of some aristocratic families.

Headmaster Albus Dumbledore is a somewhat strange person. He has long silver-white hair and a silver-white beard. His temperament is exactly the same as the mysterious wizard that people imagine, just like a living Merlin. Can you imagine it? His speech at the opening ceremony was: "Idiot! Crybaby! Scum! Twist!" No one probably knew what it meant. But even though I didn't understand it, it was much better than the long and boring speech. Because after he finished his speech, many delicacies appeared on our table (yes, they appeared suddenly, magic is really magical), and we were all very hungry at that time.

While being a little weird, this professor is also very humorous, kind, and gentle. He is also the greatest wizard of the contemporary era. A classmate from a wizard family told me that because of Dumbledore, Hogwarts is also recognized as the safest place in the world. So you don't have to worry about me encountering any danger in school. The students here will not curse others for no reason. They are no different from children in ordinary schools.

In addition, my college, Ravenclaw, has a separate tower located on the west side of the castle. After dinner, the college prefect led us to the tower. We had to answer the door knocker questions correctly to enter the lounge. The lounge is a very wide round room, with many stars painted on the dark blue dome and the thick carpet covered with stars, which looks quiet and elegant. There are many arched windows around, with bronze silk hanging down. Through the windows, you can see the mountains and wilderness in the distance, as well as the Quidditch field in the school.

The dormitory is in the corner building next to the tower - I have to say, it really takes a lot of stairs to go back to the dormitory. However, the old students said that the school's stairs are often more friendly to Ravenclaw students, and they will not move around to tease us. Sometimes they will make a shortcut, which can save at least half of the journey - perhaps because the ever-changing stairs in the castle are designed by the founder of the college, Ms. Ravenclaw.

Ravenclaw students have the least number of students among the four colleges. The dormitory is a double room, and there is just one more male student, so... you should have guessed it. I seized the opportunity to quickly apply for it, and finally luckily got a single room.

There are warm beds, wardrobes, desks and bookshelves in the dormitory, as well as a separate bathroom, and all daily necessities are prepared. We didn't need to do laundry or clean the room. There was a group of invisible helpers in the castle. When we woke up, everything was in perfect order. They probably sent my suitcase to the dormitory. Thank God, I didn't have to carry it up the spiral staircase by myself.

Students in the college are easy to get along with, and West takes good care of the freshmen. Because he was worried that some students would get lost, he waited in the lounge early this morning and took us to the hall for breakfast. At the same time, he also gave us the schedule for this semester - I have to say that the schedule is very easy, which is the least worrying part.

After breakfast, West took us around the school and told us where to go for each class, which places are prohibited from entering the school, and shortcuts to places such as the library, the school clinic, and the Quidditch field.

We will have flying lessons soon, and I will ride a flying broom for the first time - it's exciting, isn't it? In the past, I never thought that we humans could fly in the sky like birds - of course, I will follow the professor's instructions, pay attention to safety, and avoid injuries.

Finally, I want to say that Hogwarts is a great school! I like it here.

Love you -

As a human being in two lives, Ved is not as heartless as ordinary children. He knows very well how worried parents who love their children will be when their children leave home. Therefore, Wade took advantage of the free time before class to write down everything that happened when he came to school, and even hand-painted a simple diagram of the school layout and put it in the letter paper. After writing the letter, Wade reviewed it again and changed the "ambitious" Slytherin to "shrewd and proud".

It's not that he wanted to praise Slytherin College, but he didn't want his parents to find out the possible conflicts between colleges from the wording and sentence structure, and then start to worry about his situation - because the Gray couple's impression of the wizarding world is still at the stage when the Dark Lord is rampant. After Wade received the Hogwarts admission letter, they have been secretly feeling guilty and worried about their identity as a Squib.

Wade wanted to tell them - it's okay, the war is over, the bloodline theory is not the mainstream, everything is good in Hogwarts now, his origin is not an obstacle to him, and his parents are not a burden to him.

He was always grateful to be their child.
