Sherlock Holmes at Hogwarts.
Chapter 130 The Lion King and the Savior
Chapter 130 The Lion King and the Savior
When Dumbledore clearly pronounced the name Sherlock Holmes in a loud voice, the entire hall seemed to be frozen by an invisible magic.
The originally lively and noisy atmosphere seemed to be cast under a silencing spell and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Without Dumbledore's insistence, the people's celebrations came to an abrupt halt.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Dumbledore, their eyes full of curiosity and anticipation.
Dumbledore straightened his back and said passionately:
"He successfully made up for my personal mistakes by his extraordinary reasoning ability.
He fought alongside other students against Professor Quirrell... Well, now it seems that it is not appropriate to call him that...
In short, under the guidance of Sherlock, the Philosopher's Stone was safe and sound, and the evil people received the punishment they deserved.
Let us all give this brave and fearless little lion king an extra 50 points!"
"Wow——!"
Cheers, screams, and applause intertwined, and the auditorium was once again flooded with surging waves of sound.
Sherlock immediately turned to look at Snape.
Sure enough, the professor was glaring at Dumbledore fiercely, as if he was going to turn into a poisonous snake and bite him at any moment.
Unfortunately, I can't bite it.
Compared to Snape's anger, the cheers in the auditorium were deafening.
Sherlock the Lion!
Since Dumbledore is so sure, it is equivalent to the official recognition of this honorable title.
In addition, three consecutive 50-point scores made the Gryffindor lions excited and their blood boiled. Many of them even shouted their voices hoarse, but they still enjoyed it.
In this situation, someone, Little Lion, secretly took out a pen and paper and calculated the result:
299+50+50+50=449分。
Gryffindor's score soared like a rocket, and it jumped to second place, only 46 points behind Slytherin, which ranked first.
Although there seems to be still some distance, the little lions are not panicked at all. Instead, they are full of confidence and expectation.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were drawn to Harry as if by a powerful magnetic force.
This allowed him to once again enjoy the attention of the public.
Ron's complexion had already returned to normal, and his eyes revealed excitement and anticipation.
Hermione raised her head, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a relieved smile.
Even Sherlock, who was always calm and composed, couldn't help laughing at this moment:
"My dear Harry, now it's your turn."
Oliver Wood, who had been depressed because of the loss in the Quidditch match, was so excited that his face turned red.
He couldn't help shouting out loud:
"it's time!"
"This momentous occasion," said Fred Weasley.
"The moment we've all been waiting for," said George Weasley.
This time, no one, not just Wood, told the Weasley twins to shut up.
All the little lions' eyes sparkled - they were already on the verge of winning the Academy Cup.
Unless something unexpected happens.
Dumbledore did not deliberately create suspense, but announced straightforwardly:
"Harry Potter, he has shown great courage and bravery, and for this, I shall award Gryffindor House fifty points."
Unlike Sherlock, Hermione and Ron, Dumbledore did not say what Harry did specifically, but directly summarized it as "fearless courage and extraordinary courage."
This is normal. After all, Voldemort's affairs have not been made public yet, so Quirrell has to bear the blame alone.
Anyway, he doesn't have much time left, so he probably won't care about these things.
To others, it was even less important; they didn't care what Harry did.
With Dumbledore's previous preparations and the description just now, they have begun to use their imaginations to their heart's content, and have come up with wonderful scenes in their minds.
"Lion King!"
"Savior!"
"Lion King!"
"Savior!"
"The Lion King and the Savior!"
"The Lion King and the Savior!"
The shouts grew louder and louder, more and more uniform, as if they were about to break through the roof of the auditorium and soar into the sky.
If someone was standing outside the auditorium at this moment, they might have thought there was an explosion.
Especially at the Gryffindor table, the cheers were getting louder and louder.
Even the Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs cheered loudly for the little lions.
Harry, Hermione and Ron all stood up.
Only Sherlock sat there, steady as an old dog.
But he soon lost his balance because the fanatical little lions rushed over and hugged him tightly.
The four were quickly overwhelmed by the excited crowd.
In stark contrast to the cheerful Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff houses, almost everyone at the Slytherin table had a gloomy face.
The more high-profile you were just now, the lower you are now.
The elation was long gone, replaced by endless frustration and regret.
The first-year students, in particular, were all filled with shock and panic, looking like they were under a full-body binding spell.
Only a few people, such as the prefect Gemma Farley, who had not been arrogant just now, still maintained their previous calm appearance.
At least Slytherin managed to maintain some face.
In short, after Dumbledore used his authority as headmaster to add a full 200 points to Gryffindor, Gryffindor suddenly went from last to first.
This is not finished.
"This means..."
Even Dumbledore had to cast an amplification spell on himself to muffle the huge cheers.
His booming voice carried throughout the auditorium: "...we need to make some small changes to the decor here."
The next moment, as he waved his wand, the decoration of the entire hall changed instantly.
The green and silver draping ribbons turned red and gold in an instant.
The giant Slytherin snake disappeared, replaced by a majestic Gryffindor lion.
The students of Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff gathered together excitedly, cheering and dancing.
For them, it is definitely a welcome thing that Slytherin, who is about to win the championship for the seventh consecutive time, suffers such a dramatic reversal at a critical moment.
The little lions, little eagles, and little badgers released their inner joy and excitement to the fullest, as if they wanted to vent all the depressed emotions that had been suppressed by Slytherin for many years.
Sherlock, who originally didn't care much about these things, also laughed.
how to say?
Compared to green and silver, red and gold are indeed more beautiful.
He looked at Professor Snape again and found that Professor Snape was shaking hands with Professor McGonagall.
Compared to Professor McGonagall's genuine smile, Professor Snape's smile seemed a little awkward.
But no one cares about this anymore.
People sang, danced and made noises, turning the auditorium into a sea of joy.
Especially for the Gryffindor students, Dumbledore's last-minute move directly turned the graduation ceremony into a place of joy for the little lions.
The seventh years were particularly excited, as this was their last large group activity at Hogwarts.
Although some students may have been busy with graduation exams, job hunting or other personal matters, most of them took time out to attend the ceremony without hesitation.
This is because they know very well that this will be their last chance to leave complete and beautiful memories at Hogwarts, and they don't want to leave any regrets about their school life.
They were not disappointed.
After six consecutive years of being suppressed by Slytherin, he was finally able to hold his head high at the last moment before leaving school and fully experience the feeling of being a liberated serf singing.
As they left school, the story of the "Lion King and the Savior" quickly spread among Hogwarts alumni.
The seventh-grade students who were unable to attend the graduation ceremony expressed regret upon hearing the news.
But the rice has been cooked, there is nothing more to say.
Life has to go on, and they can only devote themselves to their careers and lives with their blessings to the two little wizards.
Shortly after the graduation banquet, the final exam results were announced.
Without any suspense, Hermione took first place in the grade.
Harry and Ron also passed the exam with high scores, and both were surprised to be at the top of their grade.
They all thought they would fail in one or two courses.
Seamus and Dean, who are usually close to them, also performed poorly.
Only Neville managed to escape.
Mainly because he lost a lot of marks in Potions.
However, her excellent performance in herbal medicine made up for this shortcoming.
But the most surprising one is Sherlock.
His grades in Transfiguration, Charms, Potions, and Herbology were all "O" (Outstanding), which means excellent.
If it were just that, it would be fine, after all, Hermione got "O" grades in all her courses.
but.
According to rumors circulating among students, Sherlock actually scored higher than Hermione in these courses.
As we all know, rumors are often more reliable than official news.
This is very exaggerated.
It's hard to say about other subjects, but Professor Flitwick once secretly told Hermione that she got A hundred and twelve percent in the Charms exam.
Those twelve points were obtained as additional points.
It seems that Hermione's grades in other courses will not be too bad.
But now Sherlock is stronger than her?
Doesn't that mean that every course he takes is like this?
It's so scary!
But then again, although Sherlock's performance in this course was so exaggerated, he only received an "A" (Acceptable) evaluation in the courses of Defense Against the Dark Arts, History of Magic, and Astronomy.
Just passed.
The precise score seemed as if it had been calculated in advance.
Because of this, he was ranked behind Hermione.
But just relying on the courses in which he got an "O", his overall score still ranks among the top in the grade.
This also made the professors at Hogwarts feel very regretful.
The professor in charge of these courses also wanted to have a special talk with Sherlock to ask whether it was because of his poor teaching or some other reason that caused Sherlock to be so biased in his studies.
But they were stopped by Dumbledore, who gave them some sincere advice:
"My advice is that it's best not to go—if you don't want to get angry."
Of course, there was no need to persuade Quirrell, the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts.
Because he has left and will never come back.
The professors listened to the advice and did not go to Sherlock again.
At this point, the 1991-1992 academic year finally ended.
Even the Lion King and the Savior have to return to a world without magic at this time.
On the last day of school.
[Magic is not allowed during holidays]
"I keep hoping they forget to send this to us."
Fred, one of the Weasley twins, said with regret as he held the notice that had just been handed to him.
"Even if they forget, Percy will stop us – don't forget, he's a prefect... Ouch!"
Just as the two were choreographing unscrupulously, Percy appeared from nowhere and kicked George to the ground.
"I'm not only the prefect, I'm also your brother!"
After saying this, he lowered his head to look at the prefect badge on his chest and found that it had become more colorful.
Looking at Percy's figure walking with his head held high and chest puffed out, George sat on the ground, rubbed his butt, and complained:
"I don't know what's going on, but this guy is becoming more and more like an old bat, appearing and disappearing mysteriously day by day..."
Fred reached out and pulled his good brother up: "It's okay, summer vacation is long, you have plenty of time."
Summer vacation in the UK is different from winter vacation. It lasts from June to September, so it seems particularly long.
When they returned home, the twin brothers' playful nature would always allow them to find opportunities to deal with Percy.
So what if I’m your brother?
So what if I'm a prefect?
The one I hit was my brother (the class monitor)!
The two brothers looked at each other, a cunning glint in their eyes.
Harry and Ron were standing nearby, and they laughed to themselves when they saw this.
Not far away, Neville held Sherlock's hand and said with tears in his eyes:
"Sherlock, I can't find Leif again. You have to help me!"
"Neville, this is the nth time..."
Before Sherlock could speak, Hermione couldn't help but stroke her face with her hand. "Every time you come to Sherlock crying, it's as if he took your toad away from you."
"But, but... Sherlock is the only one in the whole school who can help me find Leif."
Neville hung his head, and there was a hint of crying in his voice.
Hermione: (╬◣д◢)
"Yes, yes, after all, he is the great detective Sherlock Holmes of Hogwarts!"
Looking at Neville who looked aggrieved, Hermione looked at Sherlock helplessly, "Detective, where is Neville's toad this time?"
Sherlock looked Neville over and went straight into the questioning: "When did you notice the toad was missing this time?"
"It was still with me when the test results came out..." Neville stammered as he recalled.
Sherlock nodded and was about to start the procedure as usual when a girl's clear voice suddenly came from not far away:
"Hey, Granger!"
Hermione turned her head and saw her roommate, Parvati Patil, and her Ravenclaw twin sister, Padma Patil.
The beautiful pair of sisters walked towards them hand in hand and shoulder to shoulder.
"Granger, I heard Mr. Longbottom's toad is missing?"
Parvati Patil glanced at Neville, who was anxiously standing beside her, as she spoke.
"Looking at the situation, does he intend to ask Mr. Holmes for help?
Hermione nodded helplessly. What should she say?
She had become numb to Neville throwing the toad.
Seeing this, Padma Patil's eyes lit up and she immediately raised her hand high:
"Look!"
