When the discussion among the young wizards subsided, Dumbledore made his next decision.
"Now, before we all go to bed, let's sing the school song!”said Dumbledore loudly. The other teachers 'smiles seemed to have frozen.
Dumbledore flicked his wand, and a long golden ribbon flew out of it. It twisted like a snake over the high dining table, forming lines of text. Ye Ting could see that it was the lyrics of the Hogwarts school song.
"Everyone choose the tune they like.”said Dumbledore."Ready, sing!”
So the whole school burst into song.
The sound was extremely unpleasant. Fei Ju, who was sleeping soundly in her backpack, was woken up by the chorus. She covered her ears and meowed.
Everyone finished singing the school song. Only the Weasley twins continued to sing along to the slow tune of the Funeral March. Dumbledore directed the last few bars of the song for both of them with his wand, and when they had finished, he clapped loudest.
"Music," he said, wiping his eyes,"is more charming than anything we do here! It was time for bed. Everyone, go back to the dormitory."
The new students followed the prefects out of the hall and through the corridors.
Ye Ting recognized the female prefect of Ravenclaw. Her name was Penelope Clearwater. She had long curly brown hair, and her beautiful appearance was elegant and intellectual. To Ye Ting, her charm far exceeded that of Hermione and Zhang Qiu, who were still little lolis.
Ye Ting was very interested in this girl who was a minor character in the original novel but appeared frequently in Doujin novels.
She and another prefect led the eagles to the west tower of the castle, at the very top of Ravenclaw Tower, in front of an old, bare plank with a bronze knocker shaped like an eagle.
"Unlike other Houses, the Ravenclaw lounge has no password, and you can only enter it by answering a question on the door ring and getting permission.”Penelope explained, and she knocked on the door. The eagle's beak opened at once, but it did not make a sound. Instead, it spoke in a soft, musical voice.
"What can be broken as soon as you say it?”（What_will_you_break_once_you_say_it?）
"Then, is there anyone willing to give it a try?”She looked at the freshmen with anticipation, especially Ye Ting. In terms of appearance, he had surpassed all the freshmen, including the girls. So even if Penelope was more interested in his inner qualities, she still had a very high initial impression of him.
Meeting the long-term gaze of the female, Ye Ting stood up happily.
"Silence."（Silence.）he replied.
"Well said." The eagle knocker expressed its approval, and the door swung open.
Wasn't this a brain teaser?
Ye Ting was a little speechless. The problem with this door was too easy to solve.
But in fact, due to the lack of basic education, most young wizards lacked logical reasoning skills, so for the smart Ravenclaw, riddles were often safer than passwords.
Penelope nodded to Ye Ting appreciatively, and her good impression of him increased greatly--this was because he not only had a charming appearance, but also had a good intelligence--and then introduced him to the freshmen: "Congratulations! I am prefect Penelope Clearwater, and I am pleased to welcome you to Ravenclaw. Our emblem is an eagle, soaring high above the unattainable peak; Our colors are sky blue and bronze…"
Then came a long introduction of Ravenclaw, including its achievements, its characteristics, its evaluation of other Houses, and so on. Finally, she mentioned the ghost of Ravenclaw, Lady Gray, Ravenclaw's own daughter. She would be of help to the Ravenclaws.
The Ravenclaw common room was a large circular room with elegant arched windows draped in blue and bronze silk, from which the Ravenclaws had a beautiful view. The ceiling was a dome with stars on it, and the dark blue carpet below was also decorated with stars. There were tables, chairs, bookshelves, and a white marble bust of Rowena Ravenclaw in a niche opposite the door, next to which was a door leading to the dormitory above.
The two prefects led the new students to their respective dormitories.
The dormitory was a four-person room, with four four-poster beds and dark red flannel curtains hanging from the top.
Ye Ting opened the box and packed his belongings before carrying Fei Ju to the bed.
At night, Fei Ju was full of energy, rolling on the velvet quilt excitedly.
The names of his three roommates were Anthony Goldstein, a blonde, and a young man. Terry Burt had brown hair. And the black-haired Michael Corner. They were all famous supporting roles in the original novel.
They, Ye Ting, Kevin Entwistle and Stephen Kornford, who were in the other dormitory, were the only six boys in Ravenclaw this year. They couldn't even fit into two dormitories.
But in fact, Ravenclaw had always been dominated by girls, and in terms of the number of boys, this year's freshmen was far more than the previous years.
After greeting their new roommates, everyone changed into their pajamas and fell asleep. The journey to school was indeed exhausting.
