The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

"First-year freshman! Please go here!"

Along with Link's voice, a group of Hufflepuff freshmen walked over the aisle in front of the Hufflepuff table and the wall very shy.

All of them stayed behind as much as possible, not daring to stand out, looking weak and shy.

Cedric and the others didn't rush away either, but stood not far away and watched.

They all felt that Link's sudden takeover of the freshman guidance job must be quite meaningful.

Link didn’t care about the onlookers of these people. He took Hufflepuff's freshmen through the noisy crowd, walked out of the auditorium, got into the downward winding corridor, and finally stood in Hufflepuff to rest. Stop before the entrance of the room.

The entrance to the Hufflepuff common room is on the same corridor as the Hogwarts kitchen.

Among them, the entrance of Hogwarts's kitchen is hung with huge still life statues, and further inside are the entrances to the lounge-a stack of wooden barrels placed on a dark stone trough.

This is not a secret in the eyes of the old students, but for the new students, this corridor is just a dead end with the other side's wooden barrel and hanging portraits, and there is no passage at all.

Confusion appeared in the eyes of many freshmen, they began to whisper, but they didn't dare to ask the leader Link and the two prefects who were obviously attendants.

There is no alternative.

Link, who looked like a big man at first glance, puts too much pressure on them.

Upon seeing this, Link chuckled and came to the kitchen entrance and explained:

"Now I want to introduce you to the Hogwarts kitchen and the working place of the house elves. The food you just enjoyed is the result of their hard work.

As for the house elves?

Regarding this issue, I believe that many people from wizard families have already known in advance. But I still have to solemnly inform you again. "

Link's expression became serious. "The house elves are our Hufflepuff's neighbors and the staff who worked hard for the entire Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. They are not slaves! I don't care if you were in the past. How to treat house elves, but starting from today, if someone dares to insult and call house elves in the kitchen, then you will definitely suffer the most severe punishment! For example-drop out of school!"

Link's warning made everyone who stood in front of Link pale, and some even started to tremble with fright.

Upon seeing this, Link nodded in satisfaction, stretched out his hand and scratched the pear pattern on the huge still life, and a green handle suddenly appeared.

Linkla moved his handle, and the huge still life was opened like a door, and a hot air mixed with the smell of food and detergent suddenly spread over the surface.

Many Muggle-born little wizards were stunned by this scene, and couldn't help but poke their necks to look inside the door.

At this moment, a house elf wearing a pillowcase with the Hogwarts school badge suddenly ran out of the kitchen.

He slammed the brakes, barely stopped in a posture of almost falling, and then panted and saluted Link:

"Oh! Mr. Foley! What brought you here? Is there anything you need an old clothes hanger to do?"

The house elf who claimed to be the old clothes hanger shocked many new students, but Link didn't care at all, and smiled at the old clothes hanger:

"Nothing else, I just want to thank you guys, the food tonight is amazing! Of course, by the way, I also want to introduce to you, these are our new students in Hufflepuff."

"Oh! Oh! It's...it's such an honor! The old hanger is really...really..." The house elf old hanger started to wipe his tears with excitement, but it's a pity that his big eyes have too much water. Big, because his little arms and legs can't be cleaned at all, "Another group of new little Hufflepuffs, if Ms. Hufflepuff can see it, she will be very happy!"

The old hanger finally adjusted his mood, and barely squeezed out a smile and said to the new students, "Master Hufflepuffs, if you have anything to do in the future, please tell the old hanger! No matter what it is, the old hanger and his colleagues will do it. Help! This is a gratitude to Ms. Hufflepuff!"

Link also turned to look at the new students.

These new students had just been warned by Link, and now they were stared at by Link again, and they immediately reacted, and they began to thank you in a mess, and the old clothes hanger started to cry again with excitement.

Afterwards, Link took the new students and the old clothes hanger and waited for a group of house elves to greet for a while, and then closed the kitchen door after harvesting a lot of supper.

"What a group of kind house elves!"

Many freshmen have expressed sincere sighs. The contrast is too great. Who would have thought that the strange-looking house elves would be such a group of extremely enthusiastic creatures?

On the other hand, the expressions of a small number of freshmen from wizard families are a bit complicated and weird. Naturally, there are not many of them who are rich and have house elves at home, but they still feel that their three views and perceptions have been distorted. .

Obviously, the house elves are a group of slaves.

Whenever they thought of this, the freshmen would instinctively look at Link, and then lower their heads at a faster speed, without daring to say anything.

At this time, Link walked to the stacked barrels and said to the freshmen again:

"The next thing I want to introduce is the entrance to the Hufflepuff common room. Like the other three colleges, the entrance to the Hufflepuff common room naturally has a secret order mechanism."

As Link spoke, he took out his magic wand and leaned it against one of the wooden barrels. "If you want to successfully open the entrance of the Hufflepuff Common Room, then you need to count from the bottom to the middle of the second row. The second barrel strikes a specific melody. Just like me."

咚咚咚——

After a rhythm of percussions, the lid of the wooden barrel suddenly opened, revealing a section of uphill dirt road on one side.

The bosses of the Hufflepuff freshmen were staring, and they didn't know what to say.

Of course, it wasn't that the scene before him was too surprising, but that Link knocked it so fast that most of them didn't remember.

"You should all have learned it?" Link said with a smile, "You should have learned it, or else, if you strike in the wrong order..."

Link did not continue, but the freshmen began to make up for various killing organs, and their faces instantly paled.

There were a few courageous freshmen who immediately seemed to ask questions, but Link didn't give them a chance to speak, and directly called everyone and got into the barrel tunnel.

When you see the new students, you look at me, and I look at you, each face is ashamed, and in the end you can only keep up.

The old students who had been behind the freshmen team were a little gloating when they saw it.

What will happen if the strike sequence is wrong?

The answer is that the lid of another wooden barrel will explode, drenching uninvited guests with vinegar!

This kind of old vinegar can acidify people's teeth, and the pungent smell will not dissipate for a full week!

They couldn't know this better!

Because almost everyone of them has been drenched in vinegar, this is also one of the welcome (entrap) rituals for the newcomers!

After being led by Link across the dirt road into the circular common room, the tight nerves of the freshmen gradually eased.

The entire common room is decorated with lively, bee-like black and yellow colors, and decorated with honey-colored wooden tables and round wooden doors.

The colorful plants and flowers inside make the lounge more warm.

Link first let the freshmen look around the lounge, and then stood in front of the fireplace full of dancing badgers, that is, directly below the portrait of Ms. Helga Hufflepuff, and said to everyone:

"First of all, I would like to welcome you once again to be a member of Hufflepuff.

I know that before this, you may have heard bad rumors about Hufflepuff from many places. But what I tell you is that Hufflepuff is no worse than other colleges!

Take a look at Slytherin, they are now gradually declining, who are proud to be noble! They talk to each other and never know what unity is!

Look at Gryffindor again! The bravery qualities they are proud of are more reckless in their daily lives! Since the establishment of the college, they have always been the most troublesome existence for professors!

As for Ravenclaw, ha! ‘Extraordinary ingenuity is the greatest wealth of mankind’, this Ms. Ravenclaw’s motto has been implemented by them until now. The smarter people are, the more they will want to take shortcuts when encountering difficulties! Their ingenuity always allows them to pass the level more easily and calmly than others! This makes them extremely proud, and it also makes them develop the habit of taking shortcuts and avoiding danger!

But what they don't know is that there are no shortcuts to many things in this world!

If you want to achieve a big cause, your ingenuity is just a bonus!

Tenacity, self-reliance, unity, and fear of hardship are the most important qualities!

And these are the most basic of our Hufflepuff people!

With these qualities, the number of our alumni in Hufflepuff exceeds the sum of the other three colleges! All over all walks of life, and have made great achievements!

When you encounter difficulties outside, you can always ask the people around you for help!

Because at that time, the waiter, the shopkeeper, and the official of the Ministry of Magic who stood in front of you were very likely to be from Hufflepuff!

And as a united and loyal Hufflepuff! We will never abandon our companions!

Here I must emphasize again that Hufflepuff is no worse than other colleges!

Please don't blame yourself, joining Hufflepuff is not your shame, but your luck!

We are not their food buckets, on the contrary, we are gritty dog ​​badgers! We are united ferret badgers! We are strong and invincible wolverines! We are the honey badger that thousands of people go to! We are Hufflepuff! ~"

Link's hoarse voice echoed in the circular Hufflepuff common room.

Everyone standing in front of Link looked at Link blankly. After a while, thunderous applause and cheers rang out.

"We are Hufflepuff!"

"We are the invincible Hufflepuff!"

"Though thousands of people are coming!"

...

"That's great Link!"

Cedric also stood up.

His eyes were red and his body was trembling. He was very excited.

But he still roared in a trembling voice:

"Students, don't blame yourself! We are ourselves, we are Hufflepuff, we don't need to compare with anything!"

Now the old students are all crazy!

No one understands the bitterness of being underestimated as a Hufflepuff better than them.

For so many years, Slytherin despised them and Ravenclaw ignored them.

As for Gryffindor.

Indeed, the people of Gryffindor are indeed friendlier and more compassionate to them.

But in many cases, this kindness actually causes more harm to the Hufflepuffs than simply contempt!

Many of the old students are used to it, at least on the surface they don’t seem to care.

But after listening to Link’s speech today, the fire that had been extinguished in their hearts finally burned again!

Yes, how are we worse than you?

Can you not see what your own college is doing?

The most perfect student at Hogwarts (Cedric) is our person, and the most powerful student at Hogwarts (Link) is also our person!

Why do you look down on us! ?

The old students were all blushing. Although the new students were a bit at a loss, their emotions were finally moved.

Looking at the fanatical crowd, Link nodded in satisfaction.

He never thought Hufflepuff was a bad college.

As he said before, those Hufflepuffs who were treated as eateries in school directly occupied the vast majority of the magical world in the whole country by virtue of their tenacity, unity and large number of advantages after graduation. .

This is a huge force, but they don't know it.

Link felt that it was necessary for him to use this power as Hufflepuff.

This was not only to fight Voldemort, but also to help the Hufflepuffs.

Let the world see their power!

Of course ~www.readwn.com~ this is something he only needs to do later.

And now Hufflepuff, the target that the flame he ignited is about to burn and swallow, will be the other three academies!

The excited crowd started a new round of carnival. The ‘night snack’ just received from the house elves became the best prize for the students. Everyone gathered around Link and Cedric, cheering and screaming.

Driven by this kind of enthusiasm, and pulled by Cedric and others, Link's face also showed a sincere smile.

Suddenly, he raised his head with feeling and looked at the wall behind him.

I saw Helga Hufflepuff in the huge portrait silently watching the students below who he loved and gave everything for.

I don't know if it was an illusion. Under the light of the flickering fire in the fireplace, Link always felt that Helga Hufflepuff seemed to be smiling at him, smiling very happy and proud.
