[Comprehensive British and American] My Neighbor Mr. Holmes

Gradually, Christmas is coming.

After class, as soon as William walked out of the lounge with his hand, he saw Tom Riddle appearing in front of his lounge, and Abraxas Malfoy followed him.

"Come in."

As William said, he opened the room and let the two of them in. After they sat down, they prepared a cup of black tea for each of them.

Since the last punishment, Slytherin's "Little Snake" has become much better. As long as it is the homework he ordered, all the members will help each other to complete it together. On the surface, it looks harmonious. , fights, noise, etc., are under the control of the senior, Abraxas Malfoy, who can always solve them in the first time, saving William a lot of energy.

Of course, the most unbelievable thing is that since the last match, Tom Riddle and Abraxas Malfoy have mixed together every day for some unknown reason. Refused.

Therefore, William was not surprised that the two appeared in front of William's lounge together, but was surprised why they were looking for him at this time.

"what happened?"

William sat down, took a sip from his teacup, and said.

"We want to go to Hollywood."

After Tom Riddle finished speaking, he looked at William firmly.

"'us'?"

William was taken aback, and his eyes shifted from Tom Riddle to Abraxas Malfoy. William didn't know much about Abraxas Malfoy, but William knew that Abraxas Malfoy Fu is not at all like someone who would make such a willful decision.

"It's us, Professor Stocker, and I want to be Tom's agent."

Abraxas Malfoy said, smiling reservedly at William, and then shifted his gaze to Tom Riddle.

William was taken aback when he saw this, and he looked back and forth between Tom Riddle and Abraxas Malfoy for a while, as if he suddenly discovered something.

"If that's what you want, then I agree, but the same request, Tom."

After William finished speaking, he put down his teacup and repeated to the two of them, "As long as your studies and growth are not delayed, I will support you whatever you like."

"We won't let you down, Professor Stoke," Abraxas Malfoy finished, hesitated for a moment, and said to William, "I don't need to tell my father about my going to Hollywood, I I know he won't be able to take it."

"Of course," William nodded, "I can keep it secret for you, but you have to promise me that you will protect yourself. After all, you are all underage now, aren't you?"

"We know that," said Abraxas Malfoy, seeing William's agreement, with a wider smile on his face.

"But what exactly are you going to do?" William asked.

"I plan to invest in a movie and let Tom play the leading role," Abraxas Malfoy said richly. "My mother left me a private fund, and the money there is enough for me to invest in the movie."

"It's a good idea," William nodded, and said, "If you encounter difficulties, you can come to me."

"We know." Abraxas Malfoy nodded to William.

Seeing that the two were so well-behaved in front of him, William sighed. William was still clear about Slytherin's character. From the very beginning, William didn't want to restrain Tom Riddle, and wanted him to spend his time happily. In his childhood, now he doesn't have the grief and indignation in the original book, he doesn't want to destroy the world, and he doesn't divide himself, which is already very good.

Therefore, William has never objected to what Tom Riddle wants to do. However, William is still a little worried about the matter that they use the Transfiguration Curse to develop in Hollywood. After all, he does not know many friends in the United States, and It's not good to involve more people.

"I will find a guardian for you there so that I can take care of you. Then I will communicate with the fireplaces on both sides, so that you can go back and forth between the two places in an instant."

When William said this, he turned his attention to Tom Riddle again, "Christmas is coming, Aunt Hudson misses you very much, remember to go back and see him then."

"I know, I will definitely go then."

Tom Riddle assured.

In this regard, William nodded.

The three talked about specific things for a while, before Tom Riddle and Abraxas Malfoy left, while William sat on the sofa alone thinking about the presents he would give everyone for Christmas.

According to the past Christmas, the Stoke family would always invite relatives and friends, large and small, to celebrate Christmas together. At that time, there would be not only all kinds of delicacies, but also endless gifts.

However, gifts are always given and received. Since William has received a gift, he must give it out. In the past years, except for some of his own friends, the rest of the gifts were prepared by the servants, but now he may need to prepare them himself. However, compared to previous years, this year, there are only a few people who have to prepare gifts, so it is not troublesome.

In a blink of an eye, it was almost noon, William returned to his room, and then went downstairs to prepare lunch, because Watson was on duty in the hospital today, so he and Sherlock only needed to prepare.

By the time William finished the lunch, Sherlock had already come down. He was wearing blue pajamas and reading the newspaper.

"You have to go out in a while."

Sherlock glanced at William, then moved his gaze to the newspaper, and said.

"Yes, Christmas is coming, I want to prepare some presents," William said here, suddenly seemed to realize something, looked at Sherlock and said, "Sherlock, do you want to go together?"

"No, this thing is boring."

Sherlock said, took a sip from the teacup, and continued to look at the newspaper.

"That's it," William nodded, and said solemnly, "I wanted to take you to Diagon Alley, you know, it's the favorite place for wizards to hang out."

"Diagon Alley?"

Sherlock was obviously attracted by William's words. He put the newspaper aside and said, "I don't think it's a big deal to go once."

Seeing that Sherlock didn't feel self-conscious at all, William smiled.

After the two finished their lunch, Sherlock went to William's room in his coat.

"You need to dress up," William said, handing a wizard robe to Sherlock, and said, "Wizards are not here, welcome Muggles... Fortunately, we are about the same size, you can wear my robe .”

Sherlock nodded, expressing his understanding. He looked at the black robe for a while before putting it on.

Seeing Sherlock put on his robe, William held it up and looked it back and forth several times. Brown curly hair, gray eyes, and black robe, no matter how weird he looked, he was still a handsome man!

Thinking of this, William smiled and pulled Sherlock past him and rushed into the fireplace.

……

Christmas was approaching, and there were many wizards in Diagon Alley. William took Sherlock to Gringotts first.

They passed through the shiny bronze gate, and Sherlock watched the elf guards bow to them, smiled, and remained silent.

After they entered the hall, William exchanged some gold coins with the elves, and pulled Sherlock to leave Gringotts together.

"this is for you."

William said, and handed a money bag in his hand to Sherlock, and said kindly, "How about my apology to you, I didn't want to scare you."

"It's not because of that."

Sherlock glanced at William, pointed to his face half covered by the hood, "Your doing so will affect my image."

"But only in this way can your safety be guaranteed." William explained.

"But your smiling face tells me you're lying," Sherlock said.

"Then, why not." William touched his face and shook his head solemnly, "I don't have it."

Regarding this, Sherlock looked at William for a long time and knew that William's face was a little red, so he said lightly, "I just tried it out, and it turned out to be true before I said it."

Speaking of this, Sherlock took out a gold coin from the money bag and looked at it, "The style is a bit old, similar to the smelting method in the Elizabethan period, and the ingredients in it are probably..."

Listening to Sherlock chanting a bunch of formulas that he didn't understand, William felt his head was getting bigger, he turned his head suddenly, and smacked Sherlock's lips hard.

Finally, the world is quiet.

Eyes met, Sherlock's silver-gray eyes looked at William, and William was a little nervous.

It wasn't because of Sherlock's gaze, but because this was Diagon Alley, and the wizards around were all dumbfounded at the two of them, and the embarrassing William hurriedly dragged Sherlock into a nearby shop.

After they entered, William realized that this might be Madam Malkin's gown store.

"Good afternoon, gentlemen," Mrs. Malkin came over, looked at Sherlock and William, and then said with a smile to William, "Professor Stoke, this is your first visit to my shop, I'll give you a half discount on everything you buy this time."

"Mrs. Malkin, do you know me?"

William was taken aback. It was indeed his first time in Diagon Alley. He had never seen Mrs. Malkin, but Mrs. Malkin could tell who he was by just looking at him. It was really surprising.

"Of course, you must know that you are the man of this issue. The Lihen Bookstore next door to me has books about you," Mrs. Mojin explained with a smile, "I came here this time to buy gifts for Christmas. Yes, I have newly made a lot of beautiful and practical clothes, you can take a look."

Saying that, four robes of different colors and styles came out of the room, without turning around William, allowing William and Sherlock to see the styles and characteristics of the four robes more clearly.

"The silk of the magic-eyed spider is added to the first one, so it can not only be ironed and repaired automatically, but also can resist the burning of the flame; the second one has the fur of the long-haired red rabbit on the edge, which not only keeps the Constant temperature, but also ornamental and collectible; the third model..."

Every time Mrs. Malkin mentioned a style of clothing, Sherlock's eyes brightened a little. He reached out his hand curiously and touched a piece of clothing that happened to pass by him. Behind him, he was still trembling. If it hadn't been unable to speak, it might have yelled "molest".

"It's a little shy, it's fine," Mrs. Malkin saw Sherlock staring blankly at his hand, then at the trembling clothes shrunk behind her, and explained with a smile, "You can try to hug it." In vain, it likes to hug people very much."

Following Madam Malkin's line of sight, Sherlock looked at Baibai, it was the first magic robe, it seemed to understand the conversation of several people, stretched out its two sleeves excitedly, and rushed towards Sherlock.

"Bang"!

William stretched out his hand to block it, causing Bai Bai to dodge immediately as if "the mouse has seen the cat".

"Sorry, he's mine, so I can't give you a hug."

After William finished speaking with a smile, Mrs. Malkin covered her lips and smiled.

"No wonder everyone says that magical creatures and non-living things don't like being with you. This time I finally saw it."

"what?"

William was a little puzzled.

"Have you been at Hogwarts for so long, have you never been pranked by Peeves and other ghosts?" Mrs. Malkin explained, "You know, Peeves dares to play tricks on the face of Headmaster Dippet. "

Having said that, William was really aware of the problem.

Not to mention, Earl D said at the beginning that it was not liked by animals, and later even at Hogwarts, he almost never encountered any non-creatures except for the immovable portraits, even Ben who taught the history of magic Professor Si has never spoken a word to him, and almost never appeared in front of his eyes.

"Maybe I'm not naturally liked by them, maybe it is." William shrugged and said.

"Maybe."

After the two finished talking, William saw that Sherlock was still looking around happily, and couldn't help but said, "Sherlock, do you want to make a robe? You should know that Madam Malkin's robe shop is the best in Diagon Alley." of."

Sherlock's eyes lit up and he nodded.

"I'll get a ruler to measure your size. I don't have your size here," Mrs. Malkin finished, glanced at Sherlock, and winked at William again, "Professor Stoke is here too." Either way, you may need a new robe."

"Oh, of course."

William nodded with a smile.

Sherlock and William chose the style together, and the ruler in Madam Malkin's hand rushed over, and when it was about to hit William's chest, William stretched out his hand, and a wind blade sent it flying back, hitting Bai Bai's body, Instantly fell to the ground.

Looking at the ruler and clothes that hadn't been flying, William said with a smile, "It seems that I accidentally used too much force."

"No, it's fine."

Madam Malkin looked at the half-dead ruler and twitched her lips, believing in the rumor that William possessed great magical power.

You know, back then, even Severus Snape, known as the genius of the previous class, was taken advantage of for being unguarded for the first time.

After measuring the size normally, William made an appointment with Madam Malkin, paid the money, and came out with Sherlock.

"Next, let's go to Florin's Cold Drink Shop to have some cold drinks and take a break by the way?"

William said, asking Sherlock.

"Let's go next door." Sherlock said, shifting his gaze to the Lihen Bookstore next door.

"To the next door?" William froze for a moment, "Sherlock, are you interested in magic?"

"Of course not, this kind of thing that has no scientific basis at all is like a nightmare," Sherlock said, and glanced at William.

"then you……"

When William said this, he suddenly remembered what Mrs. Malkin said just now, "Are you reading my magazine?"
