He goes up to a bunch of people and says 嗨 hi as he is trying to seem normal, but he is obviously out of place. As he approaches the entrance, a 每 hitwoman comes out, says 嗨 hi, and starts attacking Harry. She has been hired by the muggle students to prevent him from going to a normal school, as they don't want him. Harry is so angry that he yells 嗨 HI and spit magic 氵 sprays from his 口 mouth and burns the 每 hitwoman who exclaims 嗨 HI in pain.
