In this kind of atmosphere, even the most introverted children will sing along.
Although their singing may not be that beautiful, it is still very appropriate at this time.
Tom was keenly aware of some clues in this.
Why do all the new wizards start singing at the same time? This thing itself is not very reasonable...
He looked at the principal and professors on the high platform.
At this time, principal Dippet seemed to have noticed what he had discovered, but did not explain it. Instead, he motioned for him to sing along.
There was some hesitation, but Tom still didn't want to be too unconventional. Besides, no matter what, Hogwarts wouldn't attack a large number of young wizards.
So, he opened his mouth and sang along quietly.
The moment he opened his mouth, he seemed to feel an inexplicable connection.
He seems to have established a relationship with this castle.
It was not just an illusion. At the same time that this connection was established, the snake-shaped shadow in his mind disappeared. Moreover, Tom could feel that the little snake he had emerged from Meditation was wandering freely in Hogwarts, as if he had returned to the most familiar place, which was completely free.
Then when the song was about to end, the little snake came back to his mind again.
However, the snake's appearance is also much more vivid.
Tom's connection with this castle has gone one step further.
When Tom noticed the abnormality, Dippet was not surprised. There are always some young wizards with keen senses who will discover these things. It is not an unspeakable thing.
It's just the oath of protection left by Four Founders.
Originally, Four Founders was intended to give little wizards a place where they could grow up healthily. After crossing mountains and canyons, crossing oceans and lakes, Hogwarts was finally established.
Therefore, as long as there are young wizards who follow the path of their predecessors and come here to study, they will be protected by Four Founders while enrolling.
In Hogwarts, they will not be harmed by external forces, and they will not suffer fatal injuries.
The protection of the oath will gradually weaken over time until they graduate.
But what really shocked Dippet was that, as the principal of Hogwarts, he actually noticed a further connection between Tom and the castle.
If this kind of connection is to be said, it would even reach the level he has now.
In other words, Tom has become part of the owner of the castle after singing.
There is only one explanation for the current situation, and that is that he may be the heir of Four Founders...
Mr. Gryffindor's descendants have long since disappeared from history, and the descendants of the Grey Lady have become ghosts in the castle. As for Ms. Hufflepuff, she was the most philanthropic and did not leave any bloodline of her own, so now the most likely bloodline is the bloodline of Mr. Slytherin.
The bloodline of Mr. Slytherin in Wizarding World should be Gaunt family.
However, even for the older generation Gaunt, he did not cause such a reaction when he was in school. Now it can only be said that his descendants have more outstanding talents.
However, it is called Tom Riddle, which is obviously abnormal. It is impossible for the madman of that family to allow this bloodline to bear the name of others.
It seems that there is something going on here, and he will have to investigate some later...
After taking this matter to heart, he stopped thinking about it.
When the school song ended, all the little wizards gave the choir wizards their warmest applause.
After everyone had stepped down, Dippet said this to all the little wizards again.
"Welcome all little wizards to Hogwarts, and welcome everyone back. I hope everyone can gain something here this year..."
"Now let's have dinner!"
Finally, the hungry people were able to start eating.
A lot of delicacies appeared on the long table instantly, including Pumpkin Pasty, which the children loved to eat, puddings, steaks and breads that were filling, and so on.
At this time, Tom once again noticed some eyes staring at him.
This mentality is very simple. As a guy who entered Slytherin without a name, others also need to find how to deal with his attitude.
It is a very convenient way to judge from the details in various aspects of life.
If Tom is like those Gryffindor, just gobble it up and let some soup splash, then he will be a marginal existence here and will never be able to enter the core.
On the contrary, if he behaves as perfectly as before, then many young wizards will try to accept him and at the same time keep asking about his life experience until there are completely identifiable signs.
Tom responded very naturally. First, he put some vegetables on the plate, then tasted them bit by bit, then cut a piece of steak to eat. Finally, he used a spoon to scoop up some thick soup and drank it without any splashing on his body.
The whole movement looked extremely elegant, without any sense of artificiality at all.
This cast another layer of mystery around him. With this attitude, he was obviously the heir of some great nobles, rather than an ordinary wizard family.
Could it be that some foreign families entered Hogwarts's heirs to avoid the war?
Slytherin and Prefect men and women looked at each other and then made this judgment.
Although Tom showed no expression on his face, he expressed dissatisfaction with Hogwarts's food in his heart.
These things can be eaten and the ingredients are very good, even much better than the ingredients bought by Mo Fei, but the cooking skills are really difficult to evaluate...
Tom finally understood why every time Kyle returned to the orphanage, it was like a starving ghost reincarnated...
After discovering this, Tom chose natural dishes when eating. At least the ingredients themselves were not bad.
--
Just as Tom was chanting, Mo Fei among London couldn't help but sneeze, and Kyle next to him burst out laughing.
"It must be that little guy Tom who went to Hogwarts, and then complained that the food was not good... I knew..."
"Although he has never said it, he is the most picky child in the orphanage. As long as you don't make the food, he will eat to ensure that he does not starve to death and has enough nutrition... Now, he is going to suffer!"
Kyle is a little gloating.
But Mo Fei just rolled his eyes, "Okay, it's almost time for you to leave... Don't wait here. Didn't you already say that you would leave when Tom leaves for school?"
"After I receive the reply from Tom, I will also go out and see the outside world. It should be a very happy thing... I will come back when you are on vacation..."
Kyle had known the dean's plan for a long time and did not try to persuade him. He was also very considerate of the dean's difficulty.
He handed a sewn cloth bag to Mo Fei, "Dean, please take this. This is the amulet I made for you. Although I know that your strength is not simple, you are still in danger when encountering various things. Here are some niche means of protection. There is always one that can help you avoid danger..."
Mo Fei took the amulet and was very moved, "I know, I will carry it with me!"
