Sherlock Holmes at Hogwarts.

Chapter 85 The Birth of a King
Hermione felt incomprehensible at the grand occasion in the Gryffindor common room.

Didn't Sherlock just deduct sixty points from Gryffindor?

And he'll be put in solitary confinement!

Why does everyone look so indifferent?

She even spotted Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students in the crowd.

Now she understood where the Weasley brothers got their food from.

The Hufflepuffs are here, are you still worried that there won’t be anything delicious to eat?

"Slytherin is so despicable!"

"They always do tricks on the field behind the referee's back!"

"There was a flagrant foul in the last game, and our chaser was nearly knocked off by them!"

"That's right, I heard that Marcus Flint has Korean ancestry!"

"Really? No wonder!"

At this time, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff could be said to have shared a common hatred for the enemy and were angry at Serpents.

A tall and handsome Hufflepuff student raised the butterbeer in his hand high:
"That's right. Cheers to Holmes for defeating the despicable Slytherin!"

"What, you guys still want to drink?"

Hermione was even more surprised when she heard this.

"Please, Miss Granger! You grew up in Muggle society!"

George Weasley said with a smile.

Fred Weasley spoke up next: "It's just some wine, isn't it? Why do you look so frightened?"

Hermione: (ω)彡☆

The Weasley twins had a reason for saying that.

Although the legal drinking age in the UK is 18, the law also stipulates that children over the age of 5 can legally drink alcohol as long as they are under the guidance of their parents.

So for a young wizard like Sherlock who grew up in the Muggle world, it is almost certain that he had been exposed to alcohol a long time ago.

"But, but..."

Before Hermione could say anything else, George Weasley shouted:
"Everyone, Holmes is our king!"

"Cheers to the Lion King!"

Fred Weasley immediately cooperated.

Harry and Ron looked at each other and roared, "Holmes the Lion, Holmes is our king!"

Neville, Seamus, Dean and others naturally followed.

The students from Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff also joined in the booing.

The voices of the young wizards who usually consulted Sherlock were particularly loud.

Hermione was completely numb.

She really couldn't understand how things could turn out like this.

She was still worried before...

Not to mention Hermione, even Sherlock himself was a little surprised.

In fact, before today's game started, he and Hagrid were still in the principal's office.

Under the shadow of Sherlock's "making dragon eggs into potions", Hagrid finally honestly confessed to Dumbledore how he got the dragon egg.

Once the words were made clear, Quirrell would naturally be exposed.

As Sherlock said, dealing with a dragon egg was nothing for someone like Dumbledore.

But Quirrell's intention to approach Hagrid and ask him questions attracted Dumbledore's attention.

In addition to this incident, there was another reason why Hagrid came to see Dumbledore.

The Forbidden Forest has been a little uneasy lately.

So Hagrid came to report to Dumbledore as soon as possible.

When Dumbledore asked Hagrid for his opinion, he recommended Sherlock without hesitation.

"Sir, you may not believe this—oh, Merlin's beard!

Every time I mention this incident, I feel it’s magical. Do you know what that little guy did?

He told me my past the moment he saw me, and he even knew that I had retrieved the Philosopher's Stone from Gringotts for you...

Also, this time, before I even said anything, he knew I got a dragon egg!
It's amazing!
I even suspect that he can see through people's hearts just like you!"

Dumbledore: (;Д`A
"Calm down, Rubeus, I've never had that ability, and neither has Sherlock."

Dumbledore looked at Hagrid with excitement and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed to speak.

Even a wise elder like him didn't know whether he should tell Hagrid the truth now.

Not to mention Sherlock, even the little wizard from the Weasley family could get the truth out of him with a little bit of brainpower.

Dumbledore said nothing in the end.

The truth is so hurtful.

However, Dumbledore was very interested in Hagrid's strong suggestion that Sherlock investigate the Forbidden Forest, and decided to listen to Sherlock's opinion.

When Sherlock arrived at the principal's office and saw Hagrid there, he immediately understood what had happened.

"Mr. Sherlock, Rubeus has already told me about the dragon eggs."

Dumbledore gave Sherlock a warm smile, "It seems Voldemort can no longer bear it."

"It's obvious."

Sherlock clasped his hands together and rested his chin on them, staring intently at Dumbledore. "So, Headmaster, when are you going to do it?"

"Not yet," Dumbledore and Sherlock looked at each other, "I need your help."

"My help, or Harry's help?"

"To be exact, it was your help."

Dumbledore paused and said with emotion:
"Sherlock, you know, every time I see you, I can't help but think of an old friend."

Dumbledore's sentiment immediately reminded Sherlock of something.

The pair of thick white wool socks in the Mirror of Erised.

Considering Dumbledore's expression at the moment, Sherlock answered without hesitation:
"I imagine this old friend must have had a close relationship with you, and has been entangled with you for most of your life, right?"

Dumbledore: (_ゝ`)⌒☆:
As expected, I was right.

This little wizard is so sharp!
"I need you to go to the Forbidden Forest," Dumbledore consciously avoided the topic and directly stated his request. "With your ability, you will definitely be able to find out the truth."

Sherlock didn't argue. He was more interested in Dumbledore's choice of words.

He leaned forward slightly, his eyes sparkling with excitement:

"the truth?"

"Hagrid will tell you what happened."

Dumbledore shook his head: "But Quidditch is about to start, you still have to watch Harry's game, right?
I'll try to get you grounded as soon as possible so Hagrid can take you with him on patrols of the Forbidden Forest."

"It's too deliberate."

"what?"

"I said your arrangement is too deliberate," Sherlock sighed, "I will find an opportunity to be put in solitary confinement myself."

Looking at Dumbledore, Sherlock silently added in his heart that he could beat up his classmates openly at the same time.

After finishing his reminiscence, Sherlock looked at the excited classmates around him and couldn't help shaking his head.

Even though he was good at reasoning, this scene still surprised him.

But if you think about it carefully, although this result is unexpected, it is also reasonable.

After all, for the little lions of Gryffindor, not winning the house cup is not a serious matter.

They had long since gotten used to finishing last in the Academy Cup.

Even if these things didn't happen, they would still be deducted points on a regular basis.

Anyway, you are the last one, so as long as you don’t get zero points, it doesn’t matter whether you get more or less points.

It’s just that Slytherin won six championships in a row, which is a bit unbearable.

but.

Now Sherlock led the first-year students to beat up Slytherin in public.

The key is that we won!
This is so exciting.

Even Percy, who was always old-fashioned and took breaking school rules and regulations as seriously as Hermione, was smiling.

"Holmes did a really good job this time, but I think he still has a better way..."

"Prefect Weasley, don't worry about the process at this time!"

Perhaps under the influence of alcohol, the tall and handsome Hufflepuff hugged Percy.

With a bright smile, she said to him, "This is an honor, a greater honor than the College Cup!"

"Cedric, you..."

Percy had just frowned when the Weasley twins led the stretcher team onto the field and carried him aside.

George Weasley even took advantage of his unpreparedness, grabbed his head and shook it left and right.

"Don't mind Percy, why are you saying such a depressing thing when you're so happy!"

"That's right, look, even Granger didn't say anything!"

Hermione: ((*)ゞ→→

I felt as if I had been offended.

That evening, the party in the Gryffindor common room lasted until late.

However, the aftermath of this incident is far from over.

"It's over there, look."

"Where where?"

"Between Harry Potter and the red-haired boy."

"The tall one?"

"Did you see his face?"

"See his big nose?"

The next day, after Sherlock walked out of the dormitory, these whispers kept following him.

The students lined up outside the classroom, each standing on tiptoe, wanting to see his true face.

In the corridor they walked past Sherlock and then back again, staring at him intently.

"This scene seems familiar..."

Ron couldn't help but complain.

Harry was delighted.

Especially when he heard "between Harry Potter and the red-haired boy", he almost laughed out loud.

When I first started school, I was also surrounded by such strong crowds. I remember that I was very distressed at that time.

Now, Sherlock finally enjoys the same treatment as himself.

I can finally become a background board!

Unlike him, Ron pouted and said, "Why are you Harry and I am the red-haired boy..."

Harry: ((*)ゞ→→

So... blame me?
Harry and Ron were having a heated discussion, but Sherlock, who was being watched and discussed, turned a deaf ear to it all.

Harry and Ron didn't know that Sherlock had already endured this kind of strong onlookers when he was attending a Muggle school.

Students at that age were more lively than they are now.

Shortly after starting school at the Muggle school, Sherlock showed his talent.

So everyone was interested in this classmate who could tell what you did today just by looking at you.

Of course, interest is interest, but it doesn’t mean that I will live in peace with him, and being friends with him is absolutely impossible.

The main reason is that this student is too sharp-tongued.

Everyone treated him as a freak, and the strong onlookers were not only curious but also mostly malicious.

If Sherlock wasn't so strong, he would probably have been bullied all the time.

So in this respect alone, Harry is actually much happier than Sherlock.

Because he has Sherlock, Ron, and Hermione by his side.

Sherlock is alone.

But that is now in the past.

Sherlock is no longer alone now.

　The holiday is over and it’s time to go back to work. I wonder if everyone has had a good rest?
