HP: What if a time traveler went to Hogwarts?

Chapter 25 Returning to Hogwarts (beginning of second grade)

The day that Tom Riddle and Shimeier dragged their boxes out of the Wu Orphanage was undoubtedly the happiest day for the people in the orphanage every year, because it meant that they had another year before they could see this terrifying creature. The boy and the weird girl who always follows him.

King's Cross Station is still busy, with people from all directions passing by in an endless stream. Shimael is closely following Tom. Although they have changed into black plain wizard robes, they are only dragging a small suitcase. Compared with It's too low-key for students with owl cages on their luggage trolleys.

"You go up first." Tom handed his suitcase to Shimaier. "I'm going to sit in Avery and Lestrange's box." "Aren't we going with them?" Shimaier didn't want to. There is a space for people who are disgusted and annoying. Anyway, she can just pretend to be dead. "There's Lucretia and Walburga, are you coming?" Tom said, Shimeier waved his hands repeatedly, "If you don't come, don't come. Hahaha, you have fun. Then you can come to me. Hahahahaha. Goodbye. Goodbye. I'm leaving now. Goodbye!" After saying that, he rushed towards the door of the Hogwarts Express.

On the way to Hogwarts, Shimael was finally able to be in the same carriage with Alphard and Caroline.

"I went to the United States during the summer vacation and sneaked into a Muggle shopping street." Caroline secretly said to Alphard and Shimeier. Alphard's eyes lit up, "How was it? Is it fun?" "Honestly. , a bit boring." Caroline frowned and said something else, "It's not as lively as Diagon Alley, but I still brought you gifts. After thinking about it, I chose to give them to you in person, because I know the Black family doesn't allow it. Something Muggle appears." Caroline took out two document bags from her pocket and placed them in the hands of Shimael and Alphard respectively.

Shimael was a little embarrassed because she didn't contribute as much as Alphard and Caroline in this friendship. Caroline seemed to see her concerns and urged, "Open it quickly, open it, see if you like it." ." Shimaier opened the seal of the document bag and inside was a copy of "101 Ways to Prank" and Alphard got a copy of "Free Life". "These Muggle books are really interesting. I have never seen the same type of books in Flourish and Blotts." Caroline said sheepishly.

"I like it very much." Alphard was the first to express his opinion after reading the introduction. "I have always wanted to read this kind of book." "I like it too!" Shimaier followed up and said, "I will give you a copy of 1001 Types of Pranks I wrote in the future. Method!" Caroline was instantly amused by Shimaier's words. "That's great. I thought you wouldn't like a gift like a book. I have one myself." She took out another book from her backpack. , the title of the book is "Where Does Philosophy Come From?" "I find Muggle thoughts very interesting, and I think I will choose Muggle Studies as an elective course in my third grade."

"Elective courses, oh, for the second graders this year, they can take elective courses next year." Shimaier reacted belatedly, "Then have you decided what to choose?" Shimaier asked Alphard, and Alphard He also gave a very Alphard answer, "I will choose what I like, what about you?" "I don't know." Shimaier suddenly realized that he was actually living a confused life, without a clear direction, and living in a hazy state.

"Anyway, there is still one school year for you to think about." Caroline comforted Shimeier, "If you really don't know what to choose, come and accompany me to take Muggle Studies in the end." "This is also an elective course, and that is also an elective course. Class, they are equal, who is nobler than the other." Shimaier made Caroline laugh again. Alphard suddenly sat upright. Caroline, who was still playing with Shimaier, asked, "What's wrong?" Alphard walked toward the door to calm down, "No, I must have read it wrong." Shimaier nodded and said He didn't pay attention and continued to fight with Caroline.

The train kept passing by wheat fields and crossing viaducts. Shimaier suddenly felt that it was wonderful to have friends to accompany him on such a boring journey.

Tom didn't come to this box until the end. "Is our seat very far away?" Shimeier asked Caroline angrily when she got off the train. Caroline looked confused, "No." "Do I look like a servant? "Simael turned around and asked Alphard. Alphard didn't understand what was wrong, so he could only say "No." Probably Alphard and Caroline will never know why Shimael became even more angry after hearing these words.

Ogg, the gamekeeper of Hogwarts, is calling the first-year students to gather at his place. The first-year students have to ferry across the river, and since the second-year students, they have been riding in what appears to be a horseless carriage.

"It's amazing, there is no horse-drawn carriage." Caroline stepped on the carriage and suddenly saw Tom behind them. "Alphad, come up quickly. Shimaier, please take a seat." After saying this, he grabbed Alpha. Pulling it up, the carriage's wheels immediately started turning. "What?" Before Shimaier could react, the next carriage had already stopped in front of her.

"Hey, all your friends have abandoned you?" Walburga's voice came from behind Shimaier. "That's your brother." Shimaier's face suddenly sank when he saw the two sisters. "Shut up, little trash, we don't regard him as our brother now." Lucretia said.

"I'm rubbish? Do you want to give it a try?" Shimaier was a little angry. It's understandable that Caroline dragged Alphard away because there were these two annoying Blakes behind her, but why did she stay here? She could sit on Caroline's lap. She was so skinny after starving for the whole summer that she wouldn't crush Caroline to death.

"I think we'd better get in the carriage first. The people behind can't wait any longer." Tom walked out from behind, and Shimeier seemed to realize why Caroline wanted to leave her here. "Riddle is right." Walburga blushed, but in the next second Shimaier rushed to Tom's side and hugged his arm, "I'm waiting for my friend, my friend Tom Riddle. "

Shimaier saw Tom's pupils dilated slightly and his body stiffened for a moment, but she did not shake Shimaier away, so she boldly dragged Tom into the carriage and sat side by side with her. Lestrange and Avery, who came from behind, also sat opposite Tom. Walburga looked a little ugly, and Lucretia covered her mouth with her hands and said something to Walburga.

Tom noticed Walburga's mood and politely stood up and walked to the side of the carriage. "The steps are so high, so unfriendly to an elegant lady. If Miss Black is afraid, please hold my hand." Lucretia smiled. Then she pushed Walburga, and a shy expression appeared on Walburga's gloomy face. She glanced at Shimeier proudly, then took Tom's hand and used his strength to get on the carriage.

Shimeier turned her head, not bothering to pay attention to Walburga's disgusting eyes. She just clenched her palms, recalling the words Tom wrote on her palms: "Don't worry."

When the people were full, the carriage started to move. They approached the castle from the edge of the Forbidden Forest along the winding path. No one spoke in the strange atmosphere. The sleeves of Tom and Shimaier's robes were hung casually, and the two of them looked at each other. Talking on the palms of their hands was their unspoken secret.

When the carriage came to the castle gate, they could enter the auditorium directly.

"It's so novel. Last year we were still sorting." Shimaier looked at Hogwarts, which he hadn't seen for a long time, and his heart was so excited that his steps became brisk. "Yeah, I never thought I could be in the same college with you for a year." Avery deliberately said in a weird voice, "I will never forget what happened last year." "Don't say that," Lester. Ranch bumped into Avery "At least we got to know the good Riddle."

Tom walked in front of them. He just smiled faintly, but paired with his deep eyes, it was enough to confuse people. "I am also very happy to meet you, my like-minded partners." Lestrange immediately smiled. Laughing, "Of course, I think we will create greater masterpieces in the future." Shimaier just continued to skip and walk, and she never interfered in these conversations.

A group of them entered the auditorium, and the two Black sisters went to find their classmates. Shimael looked at the Gryffindor table, and sure enough, he saw Caroline winking at him.

Alphard was sitting alone on the bench in the second-year area. Opposite him was Travers, another second-year Slytherin boy. Travers seemed to be here to hold a seat for them (although he didn't use it at all). Tom and his gang waved "Here!" with their hands. Shimer sat next to Alphard, and Tom sat next to Shimer.

As soon as Avery sat down, he loosened his tie. "Thanks, Ike. Riddle seemed to be a little motion sick, so we walked a little slower." Travers smiled ingratiatingly, "It's nothing, Riddle is so good." Can you use a wand if you get motion sickness?" Tom didn't answer. He glanced at Lestrange, who immediately said, "Is Riddle's wand used to perform these little tricks?" Then he pretended to be mysterious. "Actually, I don't know if I should say it, Riddle, can I say it?" Tom smiled and winked at him, "Of course, this is a secret I share with you, and you have the right to share it with everyone. "Partiality, Riddle, you didn't tell me." Avery looked at Tom accusingly, but his eyes were more unhappy. "Riddle can already cast silent spells." "Oh my God!" Travers exclaimed in a low voice, and even Shimael trembled slightly in his heart. He did not expect that Tom would progress so fast in the magic cave. "What's wrong?" Alphard noticed Shimaier's mood, but Shimaier just shook his head, and Alphard continued to count the number of candles on the ceiling.

"Silent magic is in sixth grade!" Avery said in surprise, "Riddle, you are really a genius." "So I told Riddle that maybe when we learn silent magic, he can already perform wandless magic. ." Lestrange said proudly, as if he was Tom's closest person. But Tom just shook his head and said humbly, "Lestrange told me that wandless magic requires very deep magic and very skilled skills to implement. I'm not sure if I can do it." His eyes were fixed on On Shimael.

Shimaier felt the eyes on him and couldn't help but shuddered. "Why are you looking at me? I don't know how." His face was full of guilt. Tom retracted his gaze and raised his head slightly, "Maybe so." Then he continued talking to Avery and the others, and the other people didn't notice this episode at all.

When the students came to the auditorium one after another, Principal Armando stood up on the teacher's bench, cleared his throat, put the wand on his throat and cast a voice amplification spell, "It's an honor to see you again in the new school year. Hey everyone, I received a letter of advice last school year, so let's get straight to the point, Albus!" Dumbledore stood up from next to Armando with the Sorting Hat and parchment in hand. "Go pick up the children! Let's start preparing for sorting!"

Shimaier was shocked by the speed of principal Armando. She had not had much contact with the principal. In her impression, he could make her sit until her butt hurt. "Is that you?" Shimaier asked Tom tentatively, and Tom nodded slightly, "I also have a butt, and it hurts too." When he finished saying this, Shimaier twisted his toes in order to suppress his laughter. Poke a hole in your socks.

Dumbledore led the first-year students in through the gate. The students looked around with curiosity and longing for Hogwarts in their eyes. Shimaier was suddenly very emotional. She whispered in Tom's ear, "I came here the same way. It's so emotional to see them like this." Tom nodded slightly and watched as he stood in front of the teacher's table.

Suddenly, Shimeier spotted familiar figures in the crowd. They were the weird-tempered brother and sister he met in Diagon Alley! She poked Alphard next to her and motioned for him to look in the direction of her eyes. Shimaier couldn't guarantee whether Caroline noticed it too. When he looked at Caroline, he also noticed that Caroline was looking at him. Then Caroline nodded. Shimaier knew that she had also seen it.

"Tom, look," Shimeier said quietly to Tom, "the brother and sister we met in Diagon Alley." Tom also stared at them closely, "They are very interesting siblings." "Yes, the replica of you and me with completely different personalities are so interesting." Shimaier said in Tom's ear with sharp teeth, how much she wanted to See Tom’s embarrassed expression! "Interesting." Tom nodded slightly in agreement, and Shimeier turned his head boredly.

Dumbledore waited for all the first-year students to stand up before taking out the long roll of parchment. Many of them had nervous emotions on their faces. Shimael thought it was so fun to watch other people sort themselves into different houses - for example There was a chubby boy who was short of breath, causing his tie to strangle his neck and blushing; there was a girl who kept taking deep breaths. Shimaier wanted to put a balloon on that girl's mouth, and she would definitely break the Guinness record. She stared intently at the freshmen with different shapes, completely forgetting that she was also one of the students who was sorted last year.

The freshmen walked up one after another, and their mechanical steps made Shimaier laugh softly regardless of the expressions of the people around him. It wasn't until Dumbledore read "Ellas Rozier" that Shimeier calmed down and looked at the teacher's chair with interest.

Shimaier moved forward, leaned into Tom's ear and said, "I bet he's coming to Slytherin." "I bet he's coming to Slytherin, too." Tom said, looking over his head, and their eyes met for a moment. But in just a moment, Shimael returned to his original position, "Huh, how can we bet if we both have the same answer?" At the same time, the Sorting Hat on Ailas' head shouted "Slytherin!" ".

The long Slytherin table applauded one after another. Shimael felt strange. He turned around and asked Alphard quietly, "Rozier is from a pure-blood family, right?" "Yes." Tom said first, "I'm in " I've read it in the book "Pure Blood Directory"." Shimaier nodded thoughtfully and returned to his original position. "Then why do they applaud so weakly? Don't they like purebloods the most?" Shimaier's They refer to Lestrange and Avery. "Because they are orphans," Alphard finally spoke. "The Roziers both died due to a magic explosion a few years ago. I heard it was related to black magic. But I was too young at that time. My father was That's what they said. Now they live off their parents' inheritance from Gringotts every year. Maybe they don't feel the need to make friends." Alphard naturally knew who Shimael was talking about.

"Orphans, so pitiful." Shimaier looked at Ailas with pitiful eyes. Ailas received Shimaier's disgusting look, stared at her fiercely, and then turned to look at the sorting ceremony of his sister Abby. .

When Tom heard Shimaier say this, he snorted almost inaudibly, "Aren't you the same?" Shimaier then realized how big a taboo she had committed, and for a moment she didn't know if she should continue talking. At this time, the Sorting Hat on Abby's head also shouted "Slytherin!" The little girl quickly ran to her brother Ailas and talked to Ailas excitedly.

The last student ran towards Ravenclaw House. Dumbledore was lucky with the parchment and nodded to Principal Armando. Principal Armando stood up and took out a long list of parchment. "What does he want to do? Sort teachers into different schools?" Shimaier said dissatisfiedly in Tom's ear. Principal Armando cleared his throat, "I reflected on it. I talked too much before and it was probably because I spoke too illogically. But this time I have summarized the following points. First," followed by endless chatter, Shimai When I saw Professor Mellors, the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher sitting on the teacher's bench, he shook his head slightly.
