Sherlock Holmes at Hogwarts

"You stayed in the headmaster's office for so long, just to discuss the inheritance Harry's parents left him?"

Sherlock met with Harry and Hermione again the next day.

When they heard Sherlock talking about his discussion with Dumbledore, they were both stunned.

Oh, right, and Ron too.

This book is first published on 𝕥𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞.

He expressed strong dissatisfaction with Sherlock's actions yesterday.

It would have been one thing if Sherlock had faced Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, and the other bigwigs alone.

But you specifically included Harry and Hermione, so why did you leave him out?

What does that mean?

Was it on purpose?

Sherlock really did do it on purpose.

In his opinion, Ron's role in the whole incident was to make Hermione run to the girls' bathroom alone.

After that, he accompanied Harry the entire time.

So there was no need for him to retell what Harry had already said from a different perspective.

In fact, if it weren't for this interlude, Sherlock's investigation into the troll incident would have been even easier.

It was just adding difficulty for no reason.

In that case, it was better not to call this partner.

Of course, there are two sides to everything.

This incident also taught Hermione a lesson, making her aware of her own problems.

Now she gets along much better with her classmates than before.

This can barely be considered Ron's contribution.

Ignoring Ron's complaints, Sherlock turned to Harry: "Harry, you might not believe it, but your parents really left you a lot of inheritance."

"Yes, I already saw it at Gringotts."

Harry's emotions were inevitably low when his parents were mentioned.

Sherlock seemed completely unaware of this and continued, "No, that's just part of it—in fact, your parents left you many other things, and they're all at the Potter family's old house."

Harry raised his head in surprise.

The latter looked at him and said, word by word:

"In addition to that, the Potter family also owns a very effective hair growth potion.

Because its effect is so good, even the staff in charge of promotion used 'There isn't a single bald person in the wizarding world' as a core selling point, and widely advertised it.

According to the agreement, you will receive a patent fee for every bottle of this hair growth potion sold on the market.

It's just that these families haven't paid for ten years.

Although Dumbledore said he was willing to help, I personally suggest that you should handle debt collection yourself."

Speaking of this, Sherlock's eyes sparkled, and his eyes flickered with excitement.

Looking at Sherlock giving him advice with a serious face, Harry didn't know what to say for a moment.

You say he's doing it for your own good, but bringing up this topic at this time is a bit inappropriate after all.

You say he's stirring up trouble, but based on his understanding of Sherlock, he also knows that the other party is indeed sincerely doing it for his own good.

That's why he's even more speechless.

"Speaking of which, I don't seem to have ever seen a bald wizard. So it turns out that this is all thanks to the Potter family!"

Ron couldn't help but interject.

Sherlock nodded.

Just as Ron said, he had long discovered that all wizards, regardless of gender or age, had a head of thick hair.

Originally, he thought this was a benefit that wizards naturally had compared to Muggles.

But after listening to Dumbledore's introduction, he realized that the Potter family had made such outstanding contributions to the wizarding world.

Sherlock was immediately filled with respect.

You must know that baldness is a man's greatest enemy.

"But what if, what if someone used Harry's family's hair growth potion and it didn't work? What would happen?"

Ron couldn't help but ask again.

"Normally it's unlikely, but if it really happens, then it's troublesome."

Sherlock stared at Harry and said with a serious face:

"The other party will definitely think that the Potter family's hair growth potion is just a sham, and may even come to Harry to settle the score in a fit of anger.

If he's narrow-minded, it's not impossible for him to take revenge on Harry for this kind of thing."

Harry: O__O

"Um, let's not talk about this for now."

Sherlock and Ron were drifting further and further away from the topic, so Hermione quickly interrupted them and looked at Sherlock and asked:

"Did Professor Dumbledore kick us all out just to tell you this?"

Is the headmaster so idle?

"No, I brought it up myself."

Harry: ━━∑(￣□￣*|||━━

Sherlock said, then looked at Harry again: "Dear Harry, this is what you deserve, don't feel embarrassed."

Harry's expression was complicated: "Thank you."

Ron: "You're actually pretty nice."

"Who asked you about that!"

Hermione finally couldn't help it, she lowered her voice and roared: "What's going on with Quirrell?"

"So that's what you wanted to know…"

"What else?"

Hermione looked helpless, who would care about hair growth potions!

"There's not enough evidence, so it can't be determined yet that Quirrell is Voldemort's minion."

Hearing this name, Ron couldn't help but shudder.

"Not enough evidence?"

Hermione was a little excited, "Sherlock, haven't you already made a deduction?"

"You said it yourself, it's just a deduction."

Sherlock said calmly, "Although I'm almost certain that the troll and the blood writing were Quirrell's doing, but without solid evidence, Dumbledore won't attack a professor."

"How could this be…"

Hermione's emotions were a little low, "That's Voldemort! Knowing that such a dangerous person is coveting Harry, how can we just ignore it?"

Because she found the prophecy about Harry and Voldemort in the library, Hermione knew very well why Voldemort wanted to deal with Harry.

Because of this, she was more aware of Harry's situation than Ron.

It couldn't really be because someone used the hair growth potion and it didn't work, right?

"Dumbledore promised that he would protect Harry."

Sherlock wasn't lying.

He just didn't finish his sentence.

Sherlock knew very well that without him, under Dumbledore's encouragement, or rather, instigation, even if Harry didn't know the truth, he would get a rush of blood to the head and rush forward, yelling.

Perhaps under the protection of Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, and others, Harry could really turn bad luck into good.

But Sherlock didn't think this was good.

He felt that a person shouldn't be manipulated like a puppet in the name of "This is all for your own good."

Struggles require strategy.

That's why he strongly demanded that Dumbledore tell the truth.

Even so, Sherlock still felt that he was hiding something from him.

But it doesn't matter, he won't be able to hide it for long.

"Is there a possibility."

Just then, Ron whispered, "That Snape is actually the bad guy? I always feel that Professor Quirrell doesn't seem like the kind of person who would do such a thing."

Hermione glanced at Ron, and rarely didn't refute.

Indeed, compared to Professor Quirrell, Snape seemed more like a bad guy.

"You guys have too many misunderstandings about Professor Snape."

Sherlock looked at Harry and gave a serious suggestion.

"Although he's annoying, he's the one who least wants anything to happen to you.

On the contrary, if you feel like you're in danger, you can ask him for help at any time."

"Okay."

Harry currently has unconditional trust in Sherlock.

Seeing Harry like this, Ron couldn't say anything.

He could tell that even if Sherlock said the sun was square now, Harry would believe it.

Seeing this, he simply asked another question that he cared about:

"Since the blood writing was written in German, why don't you think the mastermind is a German?"
