Chapter 67: Chapter 67 The Start of School

The girl's features were quite refined, though she was smeared with dust, which along with her messy hair made her look like a poor girl living as a beggar on the street.

After being brought to this room, the girl remained silent and sat on the ground like the other students, without contacting anyone else.

Slowly, more and more students came to this basement, even exceeding the total number of all the students Jon had seen on the wagon, about seventy to eighty children gathered here, each of them dirty, wearing tattered linen robes, thin, pale skin, all appeared to be malnourished.

And just as the time approached seven o'clock, the door of the chamber, which had been closed tightly, was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

A male wizard with a crooked long face and a stout body walked in.

At the sight of this male wizard, most of the students sitting here subconsciously trembled, they were obviously terrified, afraid of this man who walked in the door.

Jon looked at the wizard calmly from the corner, he held a shackle in one hand and a whip in the other, and an excited grin appeared on his face after he entered the door.

There were two house elves in charge of picking up the "mudbloods" back to the castle, and when they saw the wizard enter, they immediately handed him the parchment respectfully, which was the "holiday work" assessment list of all the students present.

The two house elves addressed the male wizard as "Mr Dolohov".

Before dropping him, Dumbledore had given Jon all the information that the Order of the Phoenix now had about the faculty at Hogwarts Castle.

The "Mr Dolohov" full name should be "Antonin Dolohov", the current Hogwarts castle caretaker, once Voldemort's loyal lapdog, also an extreme pureblood supremacist.

He is keen on using whips and shackles to punish misbehaving students, whether they are mudbloods or half-bloods, and will simply turn a blind eye to any behaviour of pureblood students in the castle.

After receiving the sheet from the elf, Dolohov waved his hand, and the two house elves bowed, then disappeared from the chamber.

"Very well, after two months, we meet again children, I have missed you all after so long apart."

He used a cold tone to say these kind words, and the students in the chamber did not feel any warmth, and the younger children subconsciously shrank into the corners.

***

The Hogwarts great hall is brightly lit and the pureblood and half-blood students who have been away from school for two whole months have returned to the castle.

The great hall was beautifully decorated with hundreds of candelabra carrying lit candles floating in mid-air, and the ceiling featured a gorgeous starry sky overhead, which was not made of see-through glass but was magically enchanted to present the starry sky outside the castle.

There are a total of four long tables beneath, one of which is placed separately from the other three with clearly distinct boundaries at a closer distance from the high platform, while the other three long tables are placed evenly in the centre of the great hall.

The students sitting at the long table near the high platform were wearing more exquisite school robes, with a circle of gold trim embroidered on the cuffs and collar, and a dark green serpent coiled around the H emblem was embroidered on their chests.

Draco Malfoy is also sitting among them, he looked arrogantly at the half-blood freshmen who were being brought into the great hall by a professor, excited to sit down at the other three long tables.

"In the end, they're all just a bunch of ignorant half-breeds."

He sneered and talked in a low voice to the two burly boys beside him.

Goyle and Crabbe laughed along with him as if they had heard some funny joke.

Crabbe pointed to a handsome-looking boy with a gentle expression at one of the three long tables further back.

"I heard that guy is very appreciated by Professor Snape, he seems to be called what... Diggory?"

Malfoy saw the boy he was pointing at and said disdainfully.

"Cedric Diggory, his father is also an official in the Ministry of Magic, but what can a half-breed do even if he is talented, Snape is the only one who will take good care of his kind."

The last sentence of his voice was suppressed to a very low level, and while speaking, his eyes also unconsciously looked at the long table seated with Hogwarts faculty.

He was quietly relieved when he saw that the man dressed in black robes, like a large bat, was not paying attention to them here.

At the three long tables at the back, the students of the Half-Blood House welcomed their new students, and Seamus and Dean, who had already advanced to the second year, were enthusiastically briefing the new students on the process of this orientation dinner tonight.

"Later Sir Headmaster will come over, and this is the only time in an academic year that he will come to Hogwarts Castle, but during our orientation last year, he didn't make any long speeches, he just welcomed the new students and announced the start of the dinner. The food here is all splendid, and I highly recommend you all to try the roast pork chops later, the taste is really indulging."

"The students at that separate long table? Leave them alone, they're all privileged no matter where they are but don't mess with any of them either, the Professors won't be looking out for us. Other than that, Hogwarts is great in every aspect, it's a great school!"

***

Soon the door to the chamber was once again opened from the outside.

This time it was someone familiar to Jon who came in - Barty Crouch Jr. He still had that faint smile on his face as he walked in with a few boys and girls.

"These are the new students this year, remember to take good care of them, Dolohov."

"I certainly will, Professor Crouch."

Dolohov replied with a smile as he walked Barty Jr. out and then brought the new students into the chamber, among them a child who was bewildered by what was going on in front of him asked.

"Are you a professor, too? Sir, why don't we go to that big hall in the castle with the others? And Professor Crouch said he would provide us with war-"

"Snap!"

Before he could finish his question, the long, thick whip hit him!

The boy's whole face became distorted from the pain, and he cried out in the next second, not understanding what he had done wrong at all.

Dolohov, however, left him alone and herded the other already-shaken freshmen to find an open space to sit down.

"We still have a long time, children, there is nothing to fear if you don't know the rules, these seniors of yours in the back will give you a personal demonstration of what the rules of Mudblood in this castle really are!"

His eyes went to the assessment sheet in his hand, and as if he saw something that satisfied him, the corners of his mouth curled up with an increasing arc as he shouted out a name.

"Tyler Stebbins!"
