[006] Different branch
When the little wizards ended their feelings and ghosts from various academies also appeared, the branch ceremony finally officially began.
After Professor McGonagall announced the branch method, a large number of freshmen had the idea of "parents/brothers and sisters are big liars" in their minds. The so-called branch ceremony did not have any assessment or examination, it was just to go to the public and then bring a dirty and singing hat!
(Carl didn't listen to the nagging songs of the branch hat here.)
Those little wizards who were nervous and were silently thinking about how to fight the dragon and how to face the monsters had already shouted in their hearts, "Give me my nervousness back."
As for the new generation of Muggle-born Hermione, they were relieved - for them, everything mysterious magic is unknown, and if possible, it would be better to have any other exams.
As the freshmen breathed a sigh of relief from their brothers and sisters, the branch ceremony officially began, and Professor McGonagall also held parchment paper and read out the name of the first student to participate in the branch.
"Hannah Aibo!"
The little girl wearing a hat was assigned to Hufflepuff after a moment. Although the whole process was a bit stumbling, it was still smooth overall.
Then, one freshman after another was called to the stage, and then yelled out of his academy by the dirty hat.
In this session, Carl focused his attention completely. After each student sat down, he had to silently calculate the branch time of the branch hat - for him, this was the best opportunity to tell who was an outsider.
The Breaking Wall System and the Super Player System have a thinking protection mechanism for participants. In a world below level 8, both the Breaking Wall System and the Super Player will not be watched by any external force.
That is to say, in the world of Harry Potter, the divine thoughts and any similar effects are ineffective for outsiders.
This is the protection of the super player and the broken wall system to your own world.
And it is precisely because of this that if an outsider wears a branch hat, he must take some time to construct an idea. In other words, his branch time will be extended - this extension may only be a few seconds, so Carl must focus on and observe everyone.
But unfortunately, until Hermione excitedly rushed to the stage, Carl could not find another suspected target.
Hermione got her way to Gryffindor.
Then, when Draco came onto the stage, the Sorting Hat normally assigned him to Slytherin.
However, compared to the original "the hat almost touches Malfoy's hair and screams Slytherin", Draco spent a little more time this time.
Obviously, the outsider was prepared.
And behind Draco, Carl McGon was also named.
When calling her adopted son's name, Professor McGonagall raised his head a rare sight. She glanced at Carl deeply, as if saying "Make your choice."
Dumbledore, who was in the seat, narrowed his eyes slightly - the half-moon glasses concealed his emotions well.
Carl sat calmly on the chair.
The segregation hat was put on, and the hat seemed to hesitate for two seconds before shouting at the top of his throat, "Gryffindor!"
After getting the desired result, Carl left the seat with a smile, came to Gryffindor's long table, and naturally sat next to Hermione.
"I'm really nervous." Hermione spoke impatiently until Carl sat down, "I'm really afraid of being assigned to another place-"
"I'm actually more nervous than you." Carl then grinned, "To be honest, I'm really afraid that I'll be assigned to another place, that would mean my mother was furious."
"Professor McGonagall?" Hermione seemed to think of something funny, "You are completely different from her...she looks serious."
"I can be very serious, too." Carl deliberately looked stern, "But this looks a little old..."
The conversation came to an abrupt end - because Harry was named.
Although those who knew Harry were prepared, when Harry Potter's name was pronounced, a low whisper rang out throughout the auditorium.
After all, it is really rare for a person who has been written into the history of magic before he can enter school, which gives students a feeling of witnessing history - for young people, this is a very rare experience.
The Savior branch took a bit too long.
The Sorting Hat seemed to hesitate for a long time, and then hesitated to shout out Gryffindor.
Gryffindor's long table burst out with amazing cheers. The Little Lions were the most lively groups, and the addition of Harry Potter completely ignited their enthusiasm. These guys shouted "We have Potter" regardless of grade, making a tsunami sound.
Harry himself had to accept the treatment of crowds again - even the ghost came over and patted his arm, making him fall into an ice cave.
Fortunately, with the baptism of rapid cooling, he felt that this coldness was still within an acceptable range.
The savior, who was blushing, squeezed through the crowd helplessly and came to Carl's side, and then he let out a long sigh.
After he sat down, the little lions in Gryffindor were also quiet for a moment and focused on the remaining freshmen.
The branch ceremony continued, and Carl was dedicated to it, chatting with Hermione, who was terriblely talking because of excitement, while silently calculating everyone's branch time.
Among the remaining people, only Ron had some minor problems.
Ron, who was supposed to be quick to branch, took a little longer - although it wasn't slow, but Carl and Draco knew it.
Ron Weasley, the first to confirm the identity of an outsider.
Carl didn't know who was outsiders besides Draco and Ron, but it was confirmed that this guy who returned to the back of the Gryffindor table with a look that looked exactly the same as Percy's expression.
This guy first revealed his identity.
As for whether he was deliberately exposed to the bait...
Most likely not.
The bait will reveal one's identity, but it will inevitably make some profits.
Ron's exposure would not have any possibility of any profit. No one who knows his identity would take the initiative to attack him. He would only exclude him from all plans and information, make him an isolated island, and then kick him out when he is foolproof.
Eighty percent of them are a rookie.
Carl quietly labeled him in his heart.
The real old bird should refer to Draco Malfoy. If Carl hadn't known the plot, he wouldn't have realized that he was an outsider. In his conversation and behavior, Draco's performance was really the same as a young master from a wizard family, without any flaws!
Just as Carl was thinking silently, the branch ceremony finally came.
Principal Albus Dumbledore finally stood up at this time, and he looked at the students with a smile and stretched his arms to them.
"Welcome everyone!" Dumbledore said loudly, "Welcome to Hogwarts to start the new school year! Before the banquet begins, I want to say a few words, that is: idiot! Crying nose! Scratch! Twist! Thank you everyone!"
Other students were thinking about the principal's words, and Carl immediately raised his fork and added a hot dog to his plate.
Chapter completed!
