Solim removed his chest from the shelf, and pressed the ring on his right hand to the card slot on the box. "Click" Then Solim's right hand spun like a lock, and the lid of the box was flipped.

"It's ...... Stairs?" Hermione stared at the scene in front of her with wide eyes, she couldn't understand why Solim opened the box and there was a staircase going down. It was clear that this little witch who had just come into contact with the wizarding world could not yet comprehend the scene in front of her.

"Come on, Neville, and ...... Well, Hermione. Solim looked at Hermione as she was fussing, and almost called out the nickname she had given her.

Solim then took the lead and stepped over the box and down the stairs.

"Oh my God, what is this? How is this done? Why is there such a big space in your box? God, that's a bookshelf, so many books!, and there's a door there. Miss Fuss looked at everything in front of her and was stunned.

Standing on the stairs reveals everything below: a space of at least eighty square meters, and four rows of tall bookshelves filled with books on the left side of the staircase. Near the corner of the wall there is a place that is clearly used to read books. On the right side of the staircase is a four-poster bed with a gauze tent, and a closed door not far away.

"A permanent Traceless Stretching Charm, alright, don't talk about that yet," Solim interrupted Hermione's question, "Hermione, please don't tell anyone about my chest." "

Solim led the two down the stairs to the bookshelf area on the left, as it was the only place with tables and chairs.

"Alright, sit down," Solim beckoned them to sit down, "you're welcome, good black tea." "

There were just three cups of black tea on the table in front of the three of them.

A good house-elf should be like this: prepare everything beforehand.

"Neville, I know your grandmother wants you to Gryffindor, but what do you think?" Solim looked at Neville.

"I ...... I want to be like my parents. Neville wrung his hands - Solim told Neville to put the toad in the box, and the door was locked for Solim to lock up, and he couldn't get out anyway.

"Neville, I hope it's your own thoughts, not the pressure your grandmother put on you to make this choice, you know?"

"I know, but ...... But I, I mean...... I'm afraid I won't be able to get into Gryffindor, I know I'm cowardly, I'm worried ......" Neville looked like he was about to cry.

Hermione looked at Solim and Neville, not understanding what the two were saying.

"You can decide that you want to go to Gryffindor, and when the time comes, just tell the Sorting Hat that you want to go to Gryffindor. Solim took a sip of his tea, "Don't worry, you'll be in Gryffindor, after all, you meet the requirements." "

"Excuse me, Solim, what are you talking about by the Sorting Hat?" Hermione felt that if she didn't speak any more, Neville was going to suffocate herself.

"Sorting hat, what else can you do, for the little wizard to sort out. Solim looked at Hermione with a look of course, "Bring it with you at the sorting ceremony, and it will tell you which house you're sorted into." "

"Tell that the Sorting Hat to be sorted into the house you want?" Hermione was a little puzzled, if the Sorting Hat was divided according to her own wishes, then what did the Sorting Hat do. Isn't that redundant?

"Not exactly, the Sorting Hat will assign young wizards to the best house for them. Solim began to explain to Hermione and Neville.

Neville is not smart, timid and a little cowardly, and it looks like Hufflepuff is where he belongs. What about the facts? Neville's hidden courage led the Sorting Hat to put him in Gryffindor. But don't forget, Neville is also a full-blood, so Slytherin is okay - after all, Goyle and Crabbe can do it. It's just that Neville himself never thought about Slytherin. So the houses Neville can go to are Gryffindor and Hufflepuff and Slytherin. At this time, the personal wishes of the little wizard are very important. That's why Solim told Neville to tell the Sorting Hat to go to Gryffindor.

"I see, that is, if a young wizard can choose his own academy when he has a choice, right?".

"Yes, that's the way it is, and Hogwarts A History doesn't make it all clear. Solim said with a glance at an excited Hermione.

"And what house are you going to go to? Ravenclaw?" Hermione thought it must be a Ravenclaw based on the few hands Solim showed in the box.

"No, I'll go into Slytherin. Solim knew that Hermione would be yelling next, but he said it anyway.

"Slytherin, I've heard that there are evil dark wizards out there, why do you want to go there?" Hermione's eyes changed when she heard that Solim was going to Slytherin.

"Seriously, Hermione, I'm really curious to know where you, a little Muggle-born witch, heard all this nonsense. Solim knew Hermione would say that, but he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Indeed, Voldemort was just as famous, just as Dumbledore was. When people think of Gryffindor, the first thing that comes to mind is the famous and well-known head of the International Federation of Wizards, the chief wizard of the Wizengamot, the recipient of the Order of Merlin, and the headmaster of Hogwarts: Albus Percival, Woolfrick, Brian Dumbledore. But when it comes to Slytherin, what wizards are there in Slytherin? Voldemort, the mystery man, the most terrifying dark wizard of all time. Of course, the word "ever" can be removed, as can the word "most terrifying". As a ...... of this special pure-blood family of Selwyn As an illegitimate child, Solim was able to learn a lot of history that ordinary wizards didn't know, as well as historical figures. He could be sure that Voldemort was neither the most terrifying Dark wizard of all time.

Solim knew a number of wizards who were more powerful, if not greater, than Voldemort. These wizards were almost all killed—once they had breached some kind of line, or were ready to break through some kind of line. As for those that are not easy to kill or inconvenient to kill, they are also sealed, and there is a special wizarding organization in charge of guarding. This is one of the reasons for the establishment of the Sculler school: to train and supply personnel for this wizarding organization.

"I don't deny the influence of that madman on Slytherin, but don't generalize. Looking into Hermione's eyes, Solim organized his words, "It's true that Slytherin has a lot of bad wizards under the influence of that madman, but to say that they are dark wizards? Solim glanced at Neville and continued, "Slytherin has had its fair share of Aurors, and many of them died in the most chaotic years of the year to deal with that madman. Besides, Gryffindor didn't have a Dark Wizard, and Hermione you can't just hear some hearsay and think that Slytherin is a Dark Wizard. Of course, I don't deny that many Slytherin wizards aren't good people, but don't generalize. Solim stood up and walked to the side of the cupboard, ignoring Hermione and Neville, who were stunned at the word "Auror".

"Neville, here you go" Solim retrieved a slender box from the cabinet and placed it in front of Neville, "open it and you'll use this later, cherry wood, unicorn tail hair, it should suit you." "

"I ...... I use Daddy's wand," Neville looked at the box in front of him, then looked up at Solim, "My grandma let me use it." "

"That's not for you, listen to me, use this root. Solim tapped his chin at the box with the wand on the table, and continued, "It's a complete waste of time to use a wand that doesn't suit you, I know what your grandmother means, and wants to use a wand that doesn't suit you to exercise your abilities, but I think what you need right now is not ability, but confidence." "

Neville shuddered as he opened the box, knowing that he had never confiscated any gifts since he was a child. His toad was one, one from his uncle to celebrate his magical riot, and every candy wrapper given by Mother St. Mungo's every time he went to St. Mungo's. And he has never received such a valuable item as a wand since he was a child, and he can really feel the care of the "little monster" in front of him in the mouth of his uncles and the reliable and responsible cousin in the mouth of his grandmother.

"Thanks, I'll use it well. Neville's eyes were red.

Hermione looked at Neville and then at Solim, not sure what to say.

"Come to me every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday after school starts, and I'll make sure you don't fall behind in school," Watching Neville accept his wand, Solim said, "I'll give you something 'extra' as long as you can keep up with the school on your own." "

Neville's submissive temperament looked at Solim smacking his lips, Solim was an illegitimate child, so the family wouldn't give him a monthly fee, he had to rely on himself. And Neville's grandmother saw this, so she gave Solim a lot of Galleons, asking for her grandson to train well. is the so-called short-handed, although they are relatives, but if Neville does not change at all in the future, it is not easy for him to account for Neville's grandmother. Thinking of this, Solim decided to give Neville a hard shot.

"Don't forget, Neville, the person who hurt your parents, the culprit who caused your family's current situation is still in Azkaban, that madman is not dead yet, your enemy will come out sooner or later, don't you want to avenge your parents with your own hands?" Solim felt that hatred was not a good thing, but it had to be said that hatred can definitely motivate a person.

Neville looked up, his eyes still red. If it was moved just now, it is anger now.

"That's it, remember, come to me every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday night. Since the things are given to you, let's go up. Solim stood up, "By the way, Hermione, if you want, you can take a book on the first row of shelves on the left hand side to relieve your boredom, and of course, you'll have to give it back to me when you're done." "

Solim's chest contained four rows of bookshelves, and only the books on the shelves pointed to Hermione did not contain magical spells, and there were no magical prohibitions on them.

"Really, that's great!" Hermione stood, scuffling to her feet, ready to run to the bookshelf.

"Alright Hermione, hurry up, we should go up. Solim picked up his teacup and drank it in one gulp.

Bring the people back to the box, put the boxes away, and then lift the lock spell. Solim looked at Hermione, who sat down and started reading, and ......

"Neville, what are you pouting for?" asked Solim as he watched Neville pout his ass and reach under his seat.

"Rai...... Levy is gone!" Neville slammed his head on the table.

"That toad of yours, no way, this door hasn't been opened," Solim glanced at the window again, "the window is closed too, look for it." "

Seriously, Solim doesn't understand what Neville's uncle means by giving a toad, you can send an owl, you don't want to spend money, you can send a few bags of candy, what does it mean to send a toad?

"Really...... It's really gone!" Neville scrambled to get up from the ground, "I've seen both the shelves and the floor." Solim, you help me. "

"Well, I locked the door first, you put the toad outside when we went down, and the window never opened, why didn't you have a toad?" Could this toad not be able to penetrate the wall?

"Alright, Neville, I'll go with you to your toad. Hermione spoke, realizing that Neville wouldn't want to read quietly without finding his toad. Besides, since everyone is friends, it's not a big deal to do a favor.

"Thank you, Hermione. Neville said with a red face.

Watching the two of them leave the box door, Solim shook his head and continued to rummage through his tome. "Speaking of which, it was the first meeting of the Iron Triangle. "

If Solim remembers correctly, Neville couldn't find his toad on the train, and he wouldn't find it until he got to school. It's not so much that he's been found, but that he's by Neville's side. After thinking about it, Solim could be sure that the toad was in the box when they entered the box, but the toad was missing when they came out. This made Solim a little intrigued, "When will you take it and study it?" Is it a special bloodline, or is it like ......" Solim narrowed his eyes, "...... It's the same as that mouse. "
