Chapter 10: Almost Late for Potions Class (Please Read and Recommend)
Of course, not today, after all, so many people are watching.
Unlike the common rooms of other colleges, where passwords are generally fixed, the answers to many questions of the Eagle Ring are changeable. As long as you can convince the knocker logically, it will be happy to open the door for you.
So if no one plays a prank on the first-year wizards, the first-year students of Ravenclaw don't have to spend the first night in the sleeping bags in the corridor.
The common room of Ravenclaw has the most gorgeous decoration in the whole Hogwarts. The main color presents a charming royal blue, and then it is embellished with rich bronze, which looks gentle and luxurious.
The first thing that everyone who enters the common room sees is the statue of Rowena Ravenclaw, but the statue without the crown is somewhat imperfect. Many students who graduate from Ravenclaw have an obsession in their hearts to find the crown of Ravenclaw.
Behind the statue are several huge bookshelves connected to the dome. As a representative of wisdom, Ravenclaw, even if the bookshelves are placed in the common room, it is obviously impossible to be idle, because from the crowded books, you can find many books that have been borrowed many times.
Even though it is almost break time, you can still see many senior students borrowing books in an orderly manner, and then taking books to the fireplace with satisfaction to take notes attentively.
On both sides of the bookshelf are the arched windows of the common room, which is the best viewing point in the whole Hogwarts. Looking out of the window, you can see the continuous mountains, the greenhouse with many magical plants, the charming black lake like a black pearl, the mysterious forbidden forest and the spacious Quidditch field.
When you are tired of reading, admiring the scenery from the window is also a good way to relieve stress.
Looking up, a wonderful starry sky painting is shining on the dome, mysterious and charming.
The dark blue carpet is also covered with stars, corresponding to the starry sky painting on the dome.
In a way, the Ravenclaw lounge is more luxurious than the decoration of the opening banquet. No wonder the Ravenclaws are the calmest at the opening banquet.
Before the young wizard recovered from the shock, the Ravenclaw prefect who had just come in a step ahead had already come to greet him, and some leisurely seniors followed.
They raised their wands together, spraying sky blue or dark blue ribbons to express their welcome to the younger students.
In the bright eyes of the young wizards, the Ravenclaw prefect read out the welcome speech prepared in advance.
The welcome speech introduced Ravenclaw in almost every detail, including its history, past achievements, and outstanding students in history...
Professor Filius Flitwick mentioned by the prefect enriched Gretel's understanding. He knew that Professor Flitwick welcomed Ravenclaw students to disturb him at any time, and that there were delicious dancing pocket cakes hidden in the drawer of the professor's office.
He also learned the tricks of playing pitiful that the seniors taught them. Usually at this time, Professor Flitwick would command the cakes to dance the cowboy dance to help the young wizard get out of the gloom.
Similarly, from the prefect, Grett also learned about the relationship between Ravenclaw and the other three colleges.
To some extent, Ravenclaw may be the most popular college in Hogwarts. Even the mean Slytherin will always be more tolerant when treating Ravenclaw.
Of course, the prefect also said that if the badgers and lions were not too close, Hufflepuff would be the most popular in the whole school. After all, the badgers are the friendliest group of people in Hogwarts.
In terms of compatibility, the lions may be the group of people who are most incompatible with Ravenclaw, because most lions can't understand the mysterious little eagles, and even often call the little eagles weird.
However, Ravenclaw doesn't care. Instead of caring about other people's opinions, it's better to sit in the lounge and crack eggs and make predictions based on the way the yolk falls.
With the prefect's good night blessings, the little wizards returned to the dormitory. The smell of the sun on the sky blue velvet quilt was extremely warm. With the sound of the wind blowing on the windowsill, Grett fell asleep.
——
The next morning, Gret saw his own schedule next to his pillow.
When Gret saw what his first class was at Hogwarts, he shuddered and woke up completely.
Potions class, the class of Snape, the greasy, sharp-tongued man who looked like he had never washed his hair.
He had to finish his meal before nine o'clock and then rush to the Potions classroom in the basement.
But it was almost half past eight now, because the Ravenclaw bed was so comfortable, all the little wizards, including him, seemed to have taken the water of life and death, and no one got up before eight o'clock.
After a period of chaos, the little wizards finally finished packing, although they were somewhat disheveled.
At this time, Gret was very grateful that he was in the magical world, and cleaned up together, saving him and other little wizards a lot of time to wash up.
In the common room, Gret cleaned up the little wizards in the girls' dormitory who had just woken up.
"For a first-year wizard, your cleaning is really good." A senior who was taking notes praised with her chin propped up.
"Thank you for your praise, but we have to rush to the potion class now. I don't know if we can still bring a piece of pie to the restaurant to fill our stomachs."
"Potions class, then I advise you to act quickly. Professor Snape is not a good person to talk to. But your class is really miserable. At that time, the first class was Professor Binns' History of Magic. Although it was a bit hypnotic, at least he didn't curse.
Don't go to the restaurant. If you go to the restaurant first and then go to the Potions classroom, you will definitely be too late."
When the little wizards thought about going to Potions class on an empty stomach all morning, they couldn't help but regret not packing some things back last night.
"However, I do have some snacks here. If you don't mind, fill your stomach first. This is a small cake that I have saved up after asking the dean many times." After saying that, he waved a spell and shouted "Cakes fly."
The small cakes flew from the girls' dormitory like soldiers in a long line to the table in the common room.
The others were still hesitating, but Gretel had already nodded and thanked him, grabbed a cake and prepared to go out.
With the leader, the others naturally followed, thanked one by one and ran out in a hurry.
Only the voice of the senior sister echoed behind them, "Little wizards, I have a piece of advice for you. It's best to eat the small cakes on the way, otherwise you may not have an appetite. Also, remember to be careful of the stairs under your feet..."
——
Thanks to the help and advice of the senior sister, the stairs that missed were also covered by Grete's floating spell.
They hurried and arrived at the Potions classroom before Snape.
Many young wizards were impressed by the dining etiquette and brought the cakes to the Potions classroom. They also understood the senior sister's words that they might not have an appetite.
The Potions classroom is located underground, and it has a lingering cold and moldy smell, plus there are many glass jars with animal specimens placed against the wall.
These little wizards who ran out of breath had to put the senior sister's kindness in their pockets. Now they only pray that these small cakes will not have a dance party in their pockets when they go to class later.
As for the Hufflepuffs who were taking classes together, they were not so embarrassed. The Hufflepuff common room was on the first floor underground. They could get to the Potions classroom by following the underground passage.
Moreover, the kitchen of Hogwarts was right next to their common room. As long as they were willing to look for it, there was always something to eat.
For example, now, Gretel saw a few Hufflepuff badgers, ignoring the smell of the Potions classroom and the specimens around them, and were eating happily.
Book friends, can you please give me some follow-up reading and recommendation votes? I will let Gretel secretly take you to the common room to play. Thank you. Thank you.
