Sherlock Holmes at Hogwarts.

Chapter 68 Need for Speed
The book Hermione was going to give Sherlock was "Casebook of Magical Crimes".

This book collects various criminal cases in the magical world, including black magic crimes, smuggling of magic items, etc. It was written by some magical law scholars based on research and practical experience.

Hermione felt that this was a very suitable reference book for Sherlock, which would allow him to understand the characteristics of magical crimes and learn investigation techniques from previous cases.

After finalizing the matter, the three of them pretended nothing had happened and returned, only to see Sherlock still with the little witch from Ravenclaw.

Hermione was in a hurry to leave and didn't pay attention. At this moment, she suddenly discovered that the girl with Sherlock was unexpectedly beautiful.

She has long black hair like a waterfall and a pretty face. She is the kind of girl who leaves a deep impression on people at first sight.

When she saw Harry and the other two coming over, she smiled at them politely and then waved goodbye to Sherlock.

For some reason, Harry's heart skipped a beat.

"What a nice girl, don't you think, old sport?"

When the girl left, Ron whistled and nudged Harry with his elbow.

"Uh…yeah…I guess."

Hermione glanced at the two and snorted.

She vaguely understood why Harry had blushed before.

"Sherlock, is she here to consult you too?"

"It's just a minor inconvenience."

Sherlock said calmly.

On the morning of the holiday, the direct train to Hogwarts arrived as scheduled.

Sherlock, Harry, Hermione and Ron just happened to occupy one box.

This scene made Sherlock feel a little dazed.

Four months ago, he took the Hogwarts direct train and opened the door to the wizarding world.

Four months later, he and his friends from the magical world took the same train back to the science world.

Coming and going, it feels like a lifetime ago.

There is not much to say about the journey. After all, at this time, everyone is eager to go home for the New Year.

As for the Malfoy trio, although they were on the same train, they did not come to provoke like they did at the beginning of the school year.

This made Ron feel a little regretful.

He originally wanted to prove to his three friends that he would not lose to Malfoy in a one-on-one fight.

That afternoon, the train stopped at Platform 9 and 3/4 at King's Station.

A wizened old guard was manning the ticket gate.

His task was to allow only two or three people through at a time.

Obviously, this way there wouldn't be a whole bunch of people popping out of the walls at once, attracting the Muggles' attention.

During this process, people kept greeting Sherlock and Harry.

"Bye, Holmes!"

"Goodbye, Potter!"

"You are all famous people!"

Ron couldn't help but laugh.

Harry shook his head. "Not where I'm going, I assure you."

Sherlock didn't comment on this. He and Hermione were in front, followed by Harry and Ron, and the four of them went through the exit in batches.

Because Harry did not tell the Dursleys that he was going back to London, only Sherlock and Hermione's parents came to pick him up.

Arriving at the exit, Sherlock saw the target at a glance.

His mother and Mrs. Granger were looking anxiously into the crowd.

The two fathers were talking about something a little further back.

Soon, the two pairs of parents met their children.

"These two are Harry and Ron, right?"

Mrs. Holmes was very enthusiastic. After giving Sherlock a big hug, she turned her attention to Harry and Ron.

This made both of them feel flattered.

The same went for Hermione's parents. Even after learning that the two were going to live in Sherlock's house, they still warmly invited them to their home.

"Dear Jane, let the children go to my place first. Tanan and I will bring them to visit you in a few days."

After hearing what Mrs. Holmes said, Mrs. Granger thought about it and agreed.

She pulled Sherlock aside and asked him some detailed questions before parting with Sherlock and his family.

Before leaving, Hermione made a phone call gesture to Sherlock. Seeing this, Mrs. Holmes and Mrs. Granger both smiled knowingly.

Mr. Granger frowned slightly.

"Hey, isn't this a car?"

Just then, Ron pointed at a car behind Mr. Holmes in surprise and asked.

He found the car to be sleek and elegant, with clean, flowing lines along the long sides.

The rear of the car has a simple design and the taillights are uniquely shaped, echoing the overall style of the car body, giving people a calm yet fashionable feeling.

In the center of the front of the car is a logo with the bow and sail of a ship. The word "ROVER" is written in gold above the sail, which looks quite light.

When Ron saw the exquisite dashboard and soft seats on the driver's seat, he couldn't help but exclaim, "This is much cooler than my old car!"

Mr. Holmes couldn't help but feel curious when he saw Ron's surprised look.

After talking to Ron, I became even more curious.

Because Ron said his father, Mr. Weasley, also had a car.

Although that car is not as exquisite and beautiful as the one I own, it can fly!

A flying car, wouldn’t that be Knight Rider’s car KITT?

No, according to Ron, his father's car can fly long distances like an airplane.

That's even more powerful than KITT!
Because of his love for cars, Ron sat in the passenger seat on the way home.

He and Mr. Holmes got along particularly well.

The two had even agreed that when the Weasleys returned from Romania during the summer vacation, Mr. Holmes would also visit Ron's house.

Mainly to see that Need for Speed ​​car.

Mrs. Holmes, who was sitting in the back row, looked at her excited husband with a knowing smile on her face.

She turned her head and said to Harry, who was sitting next to Sherlock, looking a little reserved:

"Harry, you don't have to be so restrained. Just think of it as going home."

Harry: '(°ー°〃)
What! Then I have to live in the cupboard?
But he quickly realized that Mrs. Holmes didn't mean that.

Mrs. Holmes is a very gentle British woman, in whom Harry seems to see the shadow of his mother.

The two chatted for a few more minutes, and Harry finally stopped being as reserved as he was when they first met.

This made Mrs. Holmes very happy.

A wise child is better than his mother.

She had been worried that Sherlock would behave at Hogwarts like he had at school.

Being lonely, unsociable, and even being bullied.

Although in the end it was the bullies who suffered.

But this is not what she wants to see after all.

This was also the reason why she was reluctant to let Sherlock go to Scotland to study at first.

She knew that feeling all too well.

Far away from home, filled with sorrow, transformed into autumn leaves.

I didn't expect Sherlock to be so happy at Hogwarts.

In addition to the little girl from the Granger family whom he had known before school started, he actually made other friends.

This was an unexpected surprise.

Because of this, when she learned that Harry and Ron planned to stay at school, she immediately asked Sherlock to invite them to her home for the New Year.

Through her observation of Harry and Ron along the way, she found that the two young wizards trusted and even admired Sherlock very much.

For Mrs. Holmes, this is what makes her happiest.

As for whether Sherlock can become a great wizard in the future, that doesn't matter.

Back at King's Road, Mrs. Holmes went to prepare dinner while Sherlock led Harry and Ron to the second floor.

"Both houses are empty, you can choose."

"You mean... one room per person?"

Harry and Ron's eyes widened in surprise.
