Sherlock Holmes at Hogwarts.

Chapter 67 A Heartfelt Gift

Led by Hagrid, Sherlock and his three friends came to the auditorium.

Professors McGonagall and Flitwick were already putting up the Christmas decorations.

Seeing them coming, Professor Flitwick immediately greeted them warmly:

"Ah, here's the last tree, Hagrid. Could you put it in that corner over there, please?"

When the decoration was completed, the walls were covered with hanging ribbons of holly and mistletoe, and twelve towering Christmas trees stood around.

Some trees are hung with sparkling little icicles, some trees are flickering with hundreds of candles, and some trees do not need any additional decoration and are extremely ornamental in themselves.

All in all, the entire auditorium was even more beautiful and spectacular than it was during Halloween.

"Tomorrow is the official day off."

Hagrid, who was watching this, turned to Harry and said, "I heard you were going to Sherlock's?"

"Yes, Hagrid."

Harry's face lit up with a happy smile, "Sherlock invited Ron and me."

“It’s wonderful!”

Hagrid was genuinely happy that Harry had found a friend like Sherlock.

He placed his hands on Sherlock's and Harry's shoulders, "I bet this is the best Christmas you've ever had."

Harry nodded, he felt the same way.

However, since the news that Sherlock was going home for the holidays spread, many little wizards came to see him during this period.

The scene gave people the feeling that they were trying to hurry up and tell another fortune.

In this situation, Harry, Hermione and Ron met in an empty classroom.

"Ron, are you sure Sherlock didn't follow us?"

"Probably not. He was stopped by that girl from Ravenclaw."

"That's good. We must finalize this matter before leaving school, Harry, you..."

Hermione was about to speak to Harry when she noticed that he was still staring behind him. "Don't look. Sherlock won't be here for a while."

"Uh...ok."

Harry blushed and quickly looked away.

"Now let's discuss what Christmas gift we should get Sherlock."

"Actually, I think it's better to just ask Sherlock directly."

Ron muttered, but when two cold eyes turned towards him, he shut up decisively.

One is a savior, the other is a top student.

Can't be bothered.

"I recently took advantage of my free time to compile some information. Please take a look and see if there is anything you want to add."

As Hermione spoke, she pushed a piece of paper in front of the two of them. On it was written in neat handwriting:

Sherlock Holmes's knowledge:

1. Literary knowledge, philosophical knowledge - none
2. Astronomy knowledge: None, slightly improved after taking astronomy classes

3. Political Science Knowledge – Shallow

4. Botanical knowledge - one-sided, no knowledge of practical horticulture, but good knowledge of poisons and dangerous magical creatures

5. Geographical knowledge - limited to practical use, able to distinguish different soil types at a glance, and to determine where on campus a mud spot splashed onto one's robe while walking outside based on its color and hardness.

6. Deep knowledge of chemistry

7. Anatomy knowledge—accurate, but unsystematic
8. Thriller Literature - Very extensive, familiar with almost all horror events that have occurred in the past century

9. Have rich and practical knowledge of British law.

10. Magical Knowledge - More practical, familiar with Transfiguration, Spells, Potions, Herbology theory and practice. Only familiar with the areas of magical history that interest him. Defense Against the Dark Arts ability is unknown.

11. I play the violin very well, but I never play it properly.

After reading Hermione's summary, Harry and Ron looked at each other in confusion.

"You know Sherlock so well?"

Harry asked first, he really thought Hermione was amazing.

He had been with Sherlock for so long, but he had never been able to summarize it so thoroughly. "Don't worry about the details!" Hermione said impatiently. "Anything else you want to add?"

"Have!"

Harry said decisively, "Sherlock is good with a stick and skilled in swords and fists."

(o〃)
Hermione and Ron both looked at Harry.

"Look at what I'm doing."

Harry felt a little embarrassed by the burning gazes of the two men.

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me how you knew!"

Ron punched Harry.

Although Hermione didn't say anything, her eyes clearly showed that she meant the same thing.

Harry cleared his throat. "Since the first day of school, I've been doing morning exercises with Sherlock every morning..."

Ron's eyes were as big as copper bells: "Oh my god, why didn't you call me?"

Harry glared back immediately: "I called you on the first day, and you said you couldn't get up!"

"Uh……"

Ron felt a little embarrassed, but he quickly stiffened his neck and tried to argue.

"Then why didn't you call me later? Just because I didn't go on the first day doesn't mean I won't go in the future!"

"you……"

Harry was so angry that he was jumping up and down. Just as he was about to retort, Hermione interrupted, "You two should be quiet for a moment - Harry, did you know Sherlock was good with sticks and swords during your morning exercises with him?"

"Yes."

Harry nodded. "Actually, before school started, Sherlock had already said that he had learned boxing and fencing, just like when he fought against Malfoy and the other two in the carriage..."

"Okay, so he told me that he 'convinced' them! So that's how he convinced them?"

Hermione's eyebrows immediately raised.

Seeing this situation, Harry and Ron immediately cried out that something was wrong.

Harry said quickly, "Well... let's first discuss what gift we should give him!"

Hermione snorted, business being the most important thing, so she stopped discussing what had already happened.

After some discussion, the three finally decided on a gift for Sherlock.

Harry's gift was a magic magnifying glass.

In addition to the functions of an ordinary magnifying glass, it can also detect traces of magic and discover special runes and magical fluctuations on magical items.

If there is ever a theft of magical items or sighting of magical creatures at Hogwarts, this magnifying glass can help Sherlock observe the scene more closely.

This was also inspired by the Hannah Abbott incident.

Not long ago, Hannah Abbott made a special trip to find and thank Sherlock.

Her father was finally cleared of suspicion and his reputation was restored.

The process is a bit tortuous.

Even with new evidence, the Ministry of Magic is still unwilling to re-examine the case.

As Sherlock had expected, they only needed one result.

They don't care whether this result is true or not.

Fortunately, Aibo's mother found someone.

In this case, what awaits Wright Black will be legal sanctions.

This incident made Sherlock's reputation at Hogwarts even higher, and more people came to him for advice.

Ron plans to give Sherlock invisible ink and a special quill.

This ink can only be revealed under specific magic spells or reagents, which makes it convenient for him to hide important information. It is also a good helper for reconnaissance.

As for Hermione, she planned to give Sherlock a book.

　Everyone is busy celebrating the New Year these days and may not have time to read.

　　During the Chinese New Year period, we will still ensure that two chapters are updated every day, and the time will still be 10 am and 5 pm every day.
