Sherlock Holmes at Hogwarts.

Chapter 81 Faster, Higher, Stronger
"Sherlock, I was wrong. I shouldn't have indulged in fantasies."

Harry was very embarrassed, and he didn't know what happened to him before.

If Voldemort really gets the Philosopher's Stone, he will definitely cause trouble after regaining his strength.

Not to mention whether he would rule the British wizarding world again, just because of that prophecy, he would never let himself go!
But why did I feel it didn’t matter at that time?
He is really possessed by the devil!
"The distinction between fantasy and reality is not that clear, and not everyone can tell the difference, especially at this age."

Harry: (o__)

While he was wondering, Sherlock told him a piece of news that made him very excited: "There are many ways to miss your family, and indulging in fantasy is the most foolish.

This summer, let’s go to where your parents live.”

Harry was instantly enraged when he heard Sherlock say this.

"Before that, you have to learn stealth and fencing from me."

"it is good!"

Harry agreed confidently.

As long as I follow Sherlock, I'm not afraid of anything!
After being taught by Sherlock and Dumbledore, Harry was finally persuaded to stop thinking about the Mirror of Erised and soon fell asleep.

Sherlock was still lost in thought.

Obviously, Dumbledore deliberately placed the Mirror of Erised in the abandoned classroom to lure himself and Harry there.

Of course, he had no ill intentions, he just wanted to check his and Harry's character.

It can be said that he really wants to train a savior with his own hands.

As for myself.

All I can say is... although this old man has no ill will towards me, he is used to keeping everything in his own hands.

This was clearly demonstrated in his previous desire to let Harry face Voldemort alone.

If you were a child, and you looked in the mirror, you would most likely see yourself sailing out to sea.

but now……

Eternal puzzles, endless reasoning, I enjoy all of this.

Sure enough, I am not a normal person.

As for whether Dumbledore could understand his answer, that was up to him.

After school resumed, Harry completely let go of the matter of the magic mirror and trained with Sherlock every day.

Although Sherlock really wanted to teach Harry boxing and fencing, given Harry's current physical condition, he still had to make his body stronger first, that is, practice the basic skills well.

First, Sherlock began to increase the intensity of his daily morning exercises.

Wake up early and go for a brisk walk and jog around Black Lake.

The scenery around Black Lake is beautiful and the air is fresh. Walking and running around the lake can exercise the body's coordination and endurance.

After aerobic exercise, do some simple stretching exercises on the flat grass by the lake to improve your body's flexibility.

It is perfect for someone like Harry who is malnourished and lacks exercise.

After finishing a day's classes and waiting for his roommates to fall asleep, Sherlock took Harry out of the common room quietly, and continued their night tour of the Hogwarts campus, moving between Filch, Mrs. Norris, and Peeves.

In order to ensure enough sleep, the night tours are not long, but they are thrilling and exciting.

With the help of the Invisibility Cloak and Sherlock's guidance, Harry made rapid progress and became more and more proficient.

At the same time, I admire Sherlock more and more.

You know, Sherlock and I were touring Hogwarts at night without the invisibility cloak covering us.

But even in such circumstances, he was almost discovered by Mrs. Norris several times.

On the other hand, Sherlock was as steady as an old dog, without any flaws.

Maybe this is talent.

Harry thought so.

In this way, except for the Forbidden Forest and the room and corridor that Dumbledore specifically reminded him of, Sherlock took Harry to complete a comprehensive exploration of Hogwarts without anyone noticing.

Of course, when we say it is a comprehensive exploration, we are actually only talking about the macro level.

After all, this school hides too many secrets. In addition to the roads on the surface, there are many unknown secret passages.

But only Filch and the Weasley twins knew this.

In any case, after training with Sherlock for a while, Harry's entire mental outlook began to change.

He originally gave people a thin impression, but his body gradually became well-proportioned and he was no longer the smallest among his peers.

He got faster, taller, and stronger.

During this period, professors who received Christmas gifts also gave gifts in return.

Professor Snape is worth mentioning.

What he gave Harry was a bottle of expensive and practical high-level potion.

This also changed Harry's opinion of Snape again.

but.

Every time in Potions class, Snape would deduct points from Harry as usual.

Harry's Christmas gift didn't slow him down.

But this time not only Harry, but even the little lions have gotten used to it.

Everyone knows that when it comes to Potions class, a Gryffindor becomes a Gryffindor.

Time passes by quietly without us noticing.

Just as Sherlock was about to start increasing Harry's intensity, Quidditch training began again.

This plan can only be delayed.

The main reason was Oliver Wood, Captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team.

He was very strict with all team members, even during the continuous rainy days after the heavy snow.

The Weasley twins complained directly that Wood was becoming a training maniac, but Harry stood firmly on Wood's side.

On the one hand, if they can win the next game against Hufflepuff, they will be able to defeat Slytherin in the House Cup.

This means Gryffindor will complete its first victory in seven years.

On the other hand, after getting used to Sherlock's special training, he suddenly found that Quidditch training was nothing.

This led Wood to be full of praise for Harry.

The opposite of this is the Weasley twins.

Watching the two men dive-bombing one after another and pretending to fall off their brooms, Wood said angrily:

"If you keep messing around like this, we're definitely going to lose the game!

Snape is the referee this time, and he will definitely find every excuse to deduct points from the Gryffindor team!"

When the twin brothers heard this, their faces changed drastically and they actually fell off their brooms, landing flat on their faces.

Snape's decision to referee the Quidditch match sparked heated discussion within the Gryffindor team.

As soon as the training ended, the team members immediately started a heated discussion.

Harry ran away without saying a word.

He wanted to share this matter with his friends as soon as possible.

Arriving at the Gryffindor common room, he was not surprised to see Ron playing chess with Hermione.

Only in this case would Hermione lose to Ron.

Both of them enjoy it.

One is to win.

One is to see the other person lose.

Harry moved closer to the two of them and, in a low voice, told them that Snape wanted to be a Quidditch referee.

"Don't participate," Hermione said immediately, looking up. "Pretend to break your leg."

Ron was even more ruthless: "Really break your leg."

"I can't do this. There's no backup Seeker on the team. If I quit, Gryffindor won't be able to play."

Harry shook his head and said, "Sherlock also said last time that Professor Snape is actually a good person. He protected me in the Quidditch match before, and he even gave me a gift in return..."

Wait, where's Sherlock?"

At this point, he realized Sherlock wasn't in the common room.

After starting Quidditch training, Sherlock temporarily stopped the night tour of Hogwarts.

Otherwise, with Harry's current physical strength, he would sleep too late every day and would have no energy to participate in other activities.

Of course, the aerobic exercise every morning is still maintained, but the intensity is slightly reduced.

When Harry went to Quidditch training, Sherlock would often do his magic homework in the common room.

Hermione had spoken to Sherlock about this more than once.

Because every time Sherlock finished his homework, Ron would put it in the common room for the other little lions to circulate.

Sherlock made no comment.

Hermione felt that Sherlock spoiled others too much.

If it weren't for the previous giant monster incident, she would probably express her dissatisfaction publicly.

Even so, many little lions secretly grumbled:

"I advise you not to be nosy!"

"How can something a scholar does be called plagiarism?"

But sometimes Sherlock's homework cannot be copied - because for some courses he is not interested in, he simply does not write, or just throws in an answer.

In this situation, Harry and Ron can only rely on Hermione.

Unlike Sherlock, she refused to let others copy her homework.

However, she would also help the two check their homework, and after her checking, they would get the correct answers.

"Watson brought a letter," Ron explained when Harry asked about Sherlock. "Hagrid wants him to come to the cabin to discuss something."

"We were planning to wait for you to arrive and then discuss whether we should go there as well," Hermione added.

Harry couldn't help but be stunned.

What does Hagrid want from Sherlock?
Could it be that some magical creature has gone missing and Sherlock needs help finding it?

While he was hesitating, Neville Longbottom stumbled into the common room.

When he saw that even though he was lying on the ground, his legs were still stuck together, Harry stood up and rushed over.

"This is a leg-locking spell!"

Hermione whispered, then stepped forward to remove the spell from Neville, who had been helped up by Harry.

Ron, Dean, Seamus, and other young wizards who were close to Neville immediately came forward and asked:

"Oh my god, what the hell happened?"

Sherlock knew nothing about what happened in the Gryffindor common room. At this moment, he was drinking the strong tea that Hagrid had brewed specially for him.

In the cold winter, this thing is more effective than a warming spell.

It not only keeps you warm but also relieves fatigue and boosts your spirits.

The disadvantage is that you will easily go to the toilet if you drink too much.

"Thank you, Hagrid."

Sherlock looked at the giant in front of him, who seemed a little embarrassed and didn't know how to speak, and sighed:
"Let me be frank. There are three ways to solve the dilemma you are facing."

　It's the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and there are still two days until the end of the holiday. I will still try my best to ensure two updates a day~
