Sherlock Holmes at Hogwarts
#67 - Need for Speed
Hermione planned to give Sherlock the book "Magical Crime Case Files."
This book collects various criminal cases from the magical world, including dark magic crimes and smuggling of magical items. It was compiled by magical law scholars based on research and practical experience.
Hermione thought this was a very suitable reference book for Sherlock, allowing him to understand the characteristics of magical crimes and learn investigation techniques from past cases.
After settling on this, the three pretended to be nonchalant and returned, only to see Sherlock still with that Ravenclaw witch.
Previously, they were in a hurry to leave and didn't pay attention, but now Hermione suddenly noticed that the girl with Sherlock was surprisingly beautiful.
She had waterfall-like black hair and a pretty face, the kind of girl who would leave a deep impression at first glance.
When she saw Harry and the others coming over, she politely gave them a smile, then waved goodbye to Sherlock.

For some reason, Harry's heart skipped a beat.
"She's a nice girl, don't you think, mate?"
After the girl left, Ron whistled and nudged Harry with his elbow.
"Uh... yes... I think."
Hermione glanced at the two and snorted.
She vaguely understood why Harry had blushed earlier.
"Sherlock, was she also here to consult you about a problem?"
"Just a trivial little trouble."
Sherlock said calmly.
On the morning of the holiday, the Hogwarts Express arrived as scheduled.
Sherlock, Harry, Hermione, and Ron happened to occupy a compartment.
This scene made Sherlock feel a little恍惚 (huǎnghū - dazed/in a trance).
Four months ago, he took the Hogwarts Express and knocked on the door to the magical world.
Four months later, he was riding the same train with friends from the magical world, returning to the scientific world.
Going back and forth, it felt like a lifetime ago.
There's 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 didn't come to provoke them like they did at the beginning of the school year.
This made Ron a little regretful.
He originally wanted to prove to his three friends that he wouldn't lose to Malfoy in a one-on-one fight.
That afternoon, the train stopped at Platform 9 and 3/4 at King's Cross Station.
A wizened old security guard stood at the ticket gate.
His task was to only allow two or three people to pass at a time.
Obviously, this would prevent a large group of people from popping out of the wall at the same time and attracting the attention of Muggles.
During this process, people kept greeting Sherlock and Harry.
"Bye, Holmes!"
"Goodbye, Potter!"
"You're both big celebrities!"
Ron couldn't help but laugh.
Harry shook his head: "That's not the case where I'm going, I assure you."
Sherlock didn't comment on this. He and Hermione were in the front, and Harry and Ron were in the back. The four of them passed through the exit in batches.
Because Harry hadn't told the Dursleys that he was returning to London, only Sherlock and Hermione's parents came to pick them up.
Coming to the exit, Sherlock saw his targets at a glance.
His mother and Mrs. Granger were anxiously looking into the crowd.
The two fathers were talking about something slightly behind them.
Soon, the two pairs of parents met their children.
"These two must be Harry and Ron?"
Mrs. Holmes was very enthusiastic. After giving Sherlock a big hug, she turned her attention to Harry and Ron.
This made the two of them feel flattered.
Hermione's parents were the same. Even after learning that the two would be staying at Sherlock's house, they still warmly invited them to visit their home.
"Dear Jane, let the children come to my place first. In a few days, Tannen and I will take them to visit you."
Hearing Mrs. Holmes say this, Mrs. Granger thought about it and agreed.
She pulled Sherlock aside and asked him in detail before saying goodbye to the Holmes family.
Hermione made a phone call gesture towards Sherlock before leaving.
Seeing this scene, Mrs. Holmes and Mrs. Granger both smiled knowingly.
Mr. Granger frowned slightly.
"Eh, is this... is this a car?"
Just then, Ron pointed to a car behind Mr. Holmes and asked in surprise.
He found that the car had a smooth and elegant shape, and the slender body had simple and smooth side lines.
The rear design was simple, and the taillights had a unique shape, echoing the overall style of the car, giving people a sense of calm and fashion.
In the center of the front of the car was a logo with the bow and sail of a sea ship. The word "ROVER" was written in gold above the sail, which looked quite light.
When he saw the delicate dashboard and soft seats in the driver's seat, Ron couldn't help but exclaim, "This is much cooler than my family's broken car!"
Mr. Holmes couldn't help but be curious when he saw Ron's surprised look.
As a result, he became even more curious after chatting with Ron.
Because Ron said that his father, Mr. Weasley, also had a car.
Although that car wasn't as exquisite and beautiful as his own, it could fly!
A flying car, wasn't that KITT, the car from Knight Rider?
No, according to Ron, his father's car could fly long distances like an airplane.
That was even more amazing than KITT!
Because of his love for cars, Ron sat in the passenger seat on the way home.
He chatted with Mr. Holmes very enthusiastically.
The two had even agreed that when the Weasley family returned from Romania during the summer vacation, Mr. Holmes would visit Ron's house.
Mainly to see that ultimate flying car.
Sitting in the back seat, Mrs. Holmes looked at her excited husband and smiled knowingly.
She turned her head and said to Harry, who was sitting next to Sherlock and looked a little restrained:
"Harry, you don't have to be so restrained, just think of it as going to your own home."
Harry: ’(°ー°〃)
What! Am I going to live in the cupboard?
But he quickly realized that Mrs. Holmes didn't mean that.
Mrs. Holmes was a very gentle English woman, and Harry seemed to see the shadow of his own mother in her.
The two chatted a few more words, and Harry was finally no longer as restrained as he was when they first met.
This made Mrs. Holmes very happy.
A mother knows her son best.
She was originally worried that Sherlock would be like he was at school before at Hogwarts.
Lonely, unsociable, and even bullied.
Although in the end, those bullies were the ones who suffered.
But that wasn't what she wanted to see after all.
This was also the reason why she was initially unwilling to let Sherlock study in Scotland.
She knew that feeling too well.
Far from home, full of sighs, transformed into autumn leaves.
She didn't expect Sherlock to be so happy at Hogwarts.
In addition to the Granger girl he knew before school started, he actually made other friends.
This was simply 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 house for the New Year.
Through this observation of Harry and Ron along the way, she found that these two young wizards trusted and even admired Sherlock very much.
For Mrs. Holmes, this was the thing that made her the happiest.
As for whether Sherlock could become a great wizard in the future, that didn't matter.
Back on King's Road, Mrs. Holmes went to prepare dinner, and Sherlock led Harry and Ron to the second floor.
"Both rooms are empty, you can choose yourselves."
"You mean... one room for each of us?"
Harry and Ron widened their eyes in surprise.
