Harry of the Sherlock Holmes

"Can you be more anxious?" Draco looked at his friend with a depressed face.Harry just told him on the communicator that he was going to visit Malfoy Manor, and the next second he appeared in the living room of his house with a group of people. He didn't even have time to change his clothes when he saw the guests.

Harry's face was paralyzed, unmoved: "I can't." In fact, his advance notice is already very rare—the men in the family, Sirius, are very concerned about breaking into Malfoy Manor in an abnormal way and giving Lucius Stan is eager to bring some trouble; Uncle Mike likes to talk to people in unexpected scenes, increasing the pressure on the other party and gaining the initiative in negotiations; father, well, Sherlock Holmes did not exist when the investigation was conducted. Willingness and the concept of illegal intrusion; as for rational or normal thinking people like Lupine, John, and Lestrade, it is really not easy to stop the group of "abnormal".

Then he rolled his eyes and took a closer look at his friend: "Uncle Lucius must appreciate your attire." Draco's peacock costume is still very good.

"Father would appreciate it if you came with your cat ears." Draco answered him through gritted teeth.It wasn't that his father really had a problem with that image, but it still made him uncomfortable to be joked about by Harry.

"It's not the right occasion." Harry spread his hands.Peter's news can be said to have interrupted all the original Christmas plans in the family, and the mouse had better pray to Merlin that it would not fall into their hands.

"Forget it, I don't care about you. Come to discuss with your father about Peter?" Draco raised his eyebrows at his answer.For those fugitives from Azkaban, the Malfoy family paid no less attention than Harry and the others.You must know that according to the initial investigation, Lucius Malfoy should also be one of them, but he escaped with an excuse and greatly preserved the family power.Not to mention that Bellatrix was also among the fugitives, and her fascination with the Dark Lord has always been very famous among Death Eaters. Lucius didn't think she would let the Malfoys go because of Narcissa question.

"You know?" Harry was a little surprised.What Mr. Malfoy did before the holiday was always kept secret by Draco, how could Draco know everything now.

The little platinum noble raised his chin slightly, and smiled at Harry: "You are not the only one who can speak in front of parents." Children like Harry's family can ask their parents questions at any time, and even loudly declare that I don't agree with you. I plan to go according to your arrangement, and the atmosphere of listening to my plan makes him envious.This Christmas holiday, he was finally able to discuss with his father face-to-face his views and knowledge on some issues.Lucius may be a bit doting on children's education, but he is definitely a person who knows how to do better, so apart from the visits of some (former) Death Eaters who don't let him around, he no longer shy away from telling Draco Those things are gone.

"That's really nice." Harry was happy for him too.It is true that adults hide from children out of protection, but the feeling of being excluded is not good.

"I will definitely not disappoint my father's expectations." Draco said, he looked at his mother who was leading Sirius and his party while nodding to him, and pulled Harry to his father's study.

Lucius Malfoy leaned halfway on the large black wooden bookshelf in a posture that didn't quite fit his usual image of aristocrats, and looked at Sirius and Remus with a half-smile: "You two don't know that Huo What’s so special about Gwartz’s eighth floor? The robbery group that once dominated the school?” The movement of the James Four at Hogwarts was not small at all, and many Slytherins have never been able to see it. The reason for Dumbledore - under the favor of the headmaster, the hijackers avoided a lot of punishment.

"Malfoy, we did a lot of things that were unethical back then." Sirius did not continue to quarrel with him, but began to self-criticize.He patted his godson's head and looked back at him and continued, "Isn't it more important to solve the current situation first? You are still stuck in it." He had vowed to protect Harry well, so in order to achieve this Goal, bowing your head at the right time is not so uncomfortable.Solve Voldemort, they will have a long time to come.

Lucius paused, looked at Blake who had calmed down in surprise, and said sternly: "The Room of Requirement is located opposite the tapestry of Barnabas, the troll bat on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle. First, concentrate on thinking What you need and walk through that section of the wall three times and you will get a room that meets the requirements." He explained it sincerely and carefully, and Sirius was right in one thing - although he was now determined to get rid of the Dark Lord , but the Malfoy family has been involved too deeply after all. It is easy to clear it up in the investigation of the Ministry of Magic, but it is difficult to make all actions no longer under the control of the Dark Lord.What's more, the forces of the several Death Eaters are also in constant turmoil. The "that person" who summoned them last time unknowingly lost more than half of them, and some of them are still loyal. "Subordinates" are even more difficult to handle.

"So if two people have the same requirements, will they enter a room?" Sherlock asked further, and everyone could see that his enthusiasm for that magical room was high.

"I'm afraid so. I thought it would be different. Because if you ask for a special training room or a rest room, the style of the room will be greatly adjusted according to the individual, but I always thought that the 'hidden room' The debris is just to provide a more concealed environment..." Lucius mused, "That's why little Crouch took advantage of the loophole, I didn't expect him to see it there too. Is there any problem?"

"We think Voldemort may have hidden another part of him there, and Lockhart was possessed by 'him' at school." Harry stood up and explained.

"It's quite possible." Lucius nodded to Harry, who was very used to discussing dangerous issues with adults. Thinking of his influence on his son, he couldn't help but sigh that this "savior" might really be able to "save the world". Maybe.He also remembered that the image of the Dark Lord when he summoned them recently was really unflattering, but he also remembered the image of the Dark Lord when he was in high spirits at first.Regardless of whether they were restrained and afraid of that kind of power in the future, they also chose to follow him because they saw a kind of hope in the Dark Lord. "The Dark Lord used to have many supporters at school, and if he hadn't discovered the secret of the Room of Requirement himself, someone would have been happy to tell him."

"But since the things have been taken away, why did Crouch let him go back to the original place?" Narcissa, who had been quietly listening to their discussion, asked, she slightly turned her head to her husband, "When you He told the Dark Lord that he put it in a safe place for the safety of the things, but he couldn't get it back for a while. Could it be that Crouch kept fighting for it, so that the elf who became him had to take care of the things with Dobby, and finally Are you saying that he was taken away by your lord's order?"

"That's because the one you mentioned didn't expect the other part to become conscious so soon." Sirius explained their analysis results in Grimmauld Place to his cousin, "He wanted to make the other part Absorption, but fusion is not an easy task. If you don't handle it properly, it will damage your own strength. So he accepted your decision to protect and take care of things, but Crouch was really dissatisfied with the vacillating attitude of the Malfoy family, so He decided to better protect the honor of 'Master' by himself."

"But what I didn't expect is that the diary has self-awareness so quickly." Lucius unconsciously took over the conversation.Crouch, who vowed to defend his master's honor with his life, has not heard from him for several days. The Dark Lord was furious about this, and he also received several Cruciatus Curse for it.It now appears that Crouch may already have a new owner.And to evade detection—"What place is safer than Hogwarts?"

"Didn't you see Peter when you were summoned?" Lupine interjected, even if he wanted to quit Lucius, he was still a powerful figure among the Death Eaters, and he should be able to meet them.

"No." Lucius frowned. This was what he had been worrying about all along. Ever since he refused to directly participate in Azkaban's escape plan, he could no longer hear any news about it. His son Still at Hogwarts. "The Dark Lord seems to be planning to use them as dark pawns."

"It doesn't look like it's all about Harry now," John said aside.Judging from the movements of the Hogwarts rats, it seemed that those jailbreakers were prepared to deal with "themselves".

"It is true that they will share a lot of danger for Harry if they fight themselves, but the situation is also more complicated." Mycroft showed a cruel smile. The Daily Prophet, which had been left aside for more urgent matters such as the appearance of the human body and the location of the Horcruxes, flipped casually.

"What's the matter, Mike?" Lestrade was wondering from the very beginning. As a person who can manipulate newspapers, Mycroft never took the initiative to read those few words except when he needed to verify the effect of public opinion he created. Newspaper with useful words.When discussing the problem, he should have checked with Sherlock who had the smarter mind.

The pages of the newspaper were spread out, and apart from some routine reports on the work of the Ministry of Magic and special Christmas stories, a very delicate advertising poster printed in gold fell out—"Come and pay attention! Jed Roy Lockhart's new book "Top of the World" will lead you to know what makes an excellent wizarding world!"
