After surviving the disaster, he patted his chest, looked at Professor McGonagall sincerely and said, "Thank you, Professor."

Perhaps because she had not expected that there was such a polite child in Hogwarts, Kyle's sudden action really caught Professor McGonagall off guard. It took her two or three seconds to react, and she shook her head and said, "This is my duty."

Despite this, Professor McGonagall's originally serious expression softened a lot. Before putting the Sorting Hat on Kyle's head, she even dusted it off.

"Such a polite child, it would be great if he could be sorted into Gryffindor."

Professor McGonagall was feeling somewhat excited, because this kind of model student was what Gryffindor lacked the most.

Last year, she dreamed of bringing Cedric to her own college, but unfortunately Sprout and Dumbledore disagreed.

It depends on how this year goes.

Professor McGonagall stared at Kyle with burning eyes and prayed in her heart that the Sorting Hat would be reliable for once.

…

"Strange, very strange."

When Kyle put on the Sorting Hat, he heard a small voice beside his ear saying, "You actually said thank you sincerely? This shouldn't be the case. I mean, are you really that kind of good kid?"

"Of course I am!" Kyle said seriously, "You can go and ask around. Both the Weasleys and Mr. Scamander have said that I am the most polite and good child they have ever seen.

So please don't slander me, or I will sue you even if you are just a hat."

“…”

The Sorting Hat fell into a rare silence, with the tip of the hat swinging back and forth unconsciously. It seemed to be at a loss for words, or as if it was struggling with something.

After a long pause, he continued, “Your shameless look makes me feel like I’ve returned to more than a thousand years ago, but at that time I was just an ordinary hat on Godric’s head.

So, how about Gryffindor? I feel like that place is... never mind, it's not the right place for you."

"I think..."

"Let me think about it." Kyle was about to speak when he was interrupted by the Sorting Hat: "Slytherin is better. You will be brilliant there, there is no doubt about that."

"that……"

"Wait, wait."

For the second time, the Sorting Hat interrupted Kyle again: "No, it's still not suitable. And if you go to Slytherin, Snape will definitely pour some weird potions on me in the future. Let me think about it again..."

Dumbledore has given me a big problem... It's a pity, it would be better if Azkaban also belonged to Hogwarts, or Nurmengard."

…

The Sorting Hat sounded like it was joking, but Kyle couldn't laugh at all... What was going on? He didn't seem to have done anything wrong. At most, he just scared Kanna. Could it be that he would be sorted to Nurmengard because of this? Is this unreasonable?

Besides, the entire magical world does this, and there are many people who do things even more exaggerated than what he said, so how come they are fine?

There is no such double standard.

Kyle felt that he should do something. If the Sorting Hat really called it out, he would be doomed.

Azkaban is fine, but it's under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic and you can't just go there whenever you want.

But Nurmengard is different. Dumbledore has connections there, so it is very easy to send someone there.

Although Kyle knew in his heart that the petty Sorting Hat said that probably because it was dissatisfied with what he had just said about complaining about it and wanted to get back at it, it was impossible for it to call out that place.

But what if...

A hat that has existed for more than a thousand years and has its own independent consciousness, no one knows what's going on in its mind. What if it suddenly wants to shout to liven up the atmosphere?

Both are possible.

Upon hearing this, the Sorting Hat immediately became interested: "You think it sounds good too, right? I told you, it took me a year to come up with it, how could it not be good? Only Dumbledore doesn't know how to appreciate it and even persuaded me to sing the school song, that old bee!"

Forehead……

Kyle didn't intend to say bad things about him under the principal's nose. That would be too suicidal, even if he couldn't hear it.

After coughing twice to get over it, Kyle continued, "Excuse me, your song sounds familiar to me. Is it a rap song?"

"Rap style..." The Sorting Hat asked curiously, "What does this mean?"

"You don't know! You learned it all by yourself, that's amazing." Kyle pretended to be shocked, then explained, "Rap is also called rap, it's a very popular Muggle music style."

"Muggle music..." The Sorting Hat became even more curious.

"Yes, I think you can give it a try, it should be suitable for you." Kyle said sincerely: "If you need, I can give you a gift in this regard at Christmas."

"Okay... No, I mean, let's sort the houses first. It's been a long time, and you must be hungry. It would be bad to delay the dinner." The Sorting Hat cleared its throat and said, "By the way, where were we just now?"

Kyle smiled and said, "You just said that I am a good and polite child, but you think Gryffindor, Slytherin and Ravenclaw are not suitable for me."

"Hmm? I mentioned Ravenc... Oh, I almost forgot. That's right. You are absolutely right.

In this case, the result is already obvious..."

"Hufflepuff!"

When Kyle's house placement was announced, the entire auditorium, including the teachers' seats, burst into thunderous applause.

It lasted a full twenty minutes. This sorting, which was considered the longest in the history of Hogwarts, was finally over.

They were really hungry. After all, the dinner would have already started at this time of year in previous years.

The Hufflepuff table was particularly lively. Cedric no longer cared about the Quidditch team and came over to give Kyle a hug enthusiastically.

"Great Kyle, I knew you would come to Hufflepuff."

Kyle smiled and said, "You have better taste than the Sorting Hat."

"Huh?" Cedric was stunned for a moment, not quite sure what this meant.

But Kyle just smiled and didn't explain.

Just at this moment, several seniors came over to shake hands with him. Judging from the badges on their bodies, they should be Hufflepuff prefects.

This is a common practice in every college. It not only expresses welcome, but also makes the students familiar to the new students.

Kyle greeted them with a smile and took the empty seat next to Cedric.

The person sitting here before was a prefect, but after finding out that Kyle and Cedric knew each other, he took the initiative to give up this seat.

After Kyle sat down, he turned his gaze to the Sorting Hat like everyone else.

He had originally planned to come to Hufflepuff. After all, Newt was a Hufflepuff, and his father Chris also graduated from Hufflepuff. As a wizard who also liked magical creatures, he naturally wanted to come here to experience it.

In addition, Kyle didn't want to think about Voldemort, the Dark Lord or anything like that now. He just wanted to fully enjoy the wonderful magic and the school life at Hogwarts. The enthusiastic and loyal Hufflepuff was undoubtedly the best choice.

This is important because the Hufflepuff dormitory is right next to the kitchen.
