[Comprehensive] Sherlock's Secret
Chapter 71 7777777
Harry and Hermione asked at the same time: "What is it?"
Su Fu laughed and said, "It's just that the feeling after smelling it is not very good. If I insist on describing it, it's probably like mixing mustard and ginger and pouring it into the nose..."
Harry and Hermione: "..."
Su Fu explained again: "However, it has not been processed. If it is processed properly, the smell of chi-ki fruit has a very good effect on improving memory—"
……
Night fell quickly.
The secret door under the Whomping Willow opened, and Sirius and Lupine came out pointing at Peter with their wands, followed by Harry, Hermione, and Ron with a broken leg. Suddenly spread out, revealing a huge and bright full moon.
Then Lupine began to transform.
Harry in the Forbidden Forest hesitated and said, "If we go out and catch Peter at this time—"
"No!" Hermione interrupted him immediately, "We must abide by the rules of time."
Suddenly there was a long wolf howl in the distance.
The sound of fighting and the sound of the wind echoed in the silent air. The huge black dog chased the werewolf and ran away. After a while, the howling of the wolf gradually became quieter, and someone seemed to be speaking farther away——
"what happened?"
"...Go back to school first."
Su Fu shook his head and sighed, "Going back to what school, going back is the pill!"
She shook her magic, turned her head and told Harry and Hermione: "Stay here and don't move, I'll be right back!"
As she spoke, she walked out two steps, then turned back and picked up all the chichi fruits on the ground, and threw them towards the lake while running - after running for a long distance, she saw herself and Sif holding the wand Les, the two of them were rushing towards the school gate.
Su Fu floated a chichi fruit with his wand and threw it - hitting Severus on the back of the head.
The footsteps of the two people in front stopped, but they didn't seem to intend to turn back.
Su Fu threw another one - hitting Severus again.
At this time, she found the scattered fruits on the ground, and hurriedly pulled Severus towards the lake.
When she walked halfway back to the Forbidden Forest, the dementors began to gather, and after a few more steps, a silver-blue arc of light rose from the depths of the Forbidden Forest, crossed the dark lake, and reached the opposite bank in an instant.
This time, she was closer, and she could see clearly that it was a tall and elegant herding deer.
……
Twenty minutes later, when she walked back, Hermione was still blaming Harry, saying that she would be seen by others, and Su Fu realized that it was Harry's patron saint.
Harry was still immersed in the wonderful joy that he had summoned the Patronus to save him.
Su Fu patted him on the shoulder to signal him not to be intoxicated, it's time for the time-travel rescue team to act.
Hermione stared nervously at the Time Turner and said, "We only have 15 minutes..."
Su Fu helped her onto the Hippogriff's back, climbed up himself, pulled the reins and said, "Enough!"
Buckbeak spread his broad wings in two violent whirlwinds, and as he gradually rose several hundred feet into the air, he appeared as a gigantic shadow against the background of night.
In just a few minutes, the towering top of the west tower was already in sight. The No. 13 window was Professor Flitwick's office. Harry helped Su Fu pull the reins and pull Buckbeak to fly in that direction, steadily It landed on the roof next to the tower.
The windows were brightly lit, and the scene inside could not be seen clearly.
"Alohomora (Alohomora open)!"
Hermione chanted the Unlocking Charm to the window, and Harry immediately approached cautiously, and whispered, "Sirius—"
No one answered.
He called out again—
The windows were open, and the room was indeed brightly lit, but it was empty.
Su Fu suddenly realized that after Sirius was taken away, none of them saw him locked up here. The reason why Dumbledore knew was because Severus told him, but this cannot be ruled out. After Les left, Fudge moved Sirius to a different place to be imprisoned——
No, it won't be Fudge, he can't think of such a long-term, then it can only be one person... Lucius Malfoy!
Facing the empty room, Harry and Hermione froze. Hermione's wand was still hanging in the air. She parted her lips and said, "Where are people..."
Harry said angrily, "They didn't keep Sirius here - Snape was lying!"
"No, he doesn't need to do that at all," Su Fu replied hastily, and suddenly recalled the direction of Lucius Malfoy when he came to the school hospital, and the Auror McNee who was looking for the dementor. Well, on the back of his hand - there are marks of being scratched by a cat!
"The stairs on the west can only lead to the basement, and the basement only needs a room where prisoners can be held... plus the cat, that cat must be Mrs. Norris, so—Sirius must be locked in Filch in the office!"
Harry subconsciously asked, "Really...really?"
Hermione glanced at the time again and moaned, "Whether it's true or not, we only have 10 minutes left..."
"Take a shortcut, hurry up!" Su Fu directly stuffed the two of them into the window of Professor Flitwick's office, got in himself, then opened the door, and flew all the way from the thirteenth floor to the basement—it took 5 minute.
There were torches burning on both sides of the dark corridor in the basement, and the three of them quickly and cautiously reached Filch's office, only to find that the door was locked tightly. Hermione tried the Alahoo hole spell but couldn't open it——
"Stand back." Su Fu whispered.
Harry and Hermione hurriedly took a step back, at the same time Su Fu raised his wand, and after a bang, the seemingly indestructible door bounced open with a "touch", and Sirius Black, who was sitting on the chair by the window, turned his head suddenly, There was a look of surprise on his thin, sunken cheeks.
At the same moment, Filch's obnoxious voice and a soft meow sounded in the hallway.
Hermione's face was pale, looking left and right as if she was looking for a place to hide - Sirius growled, "Su, take them away quickly -"
Su Fu cursed in a low voice, and casually took out something from his pocket. The magic wand shook a few times in a very complicated trajectory. Before he could react, Su Fu waved his wand again, his hand grabbed the parchment uncontrollably, and then disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Hermione and Harry opened their mouths in surprise.
But at this time, Filch's voice was getting closer and closer, and Su Fu could even hear what he was saying. His tone was as excited and vicious as before, as if he was about to grab something important.
Su Fu casually took it out from his pocket again, no matter what he took out, with a few movements of his magic wand, he made that thing into a portkey again.
"Put your hands up!"
Before Hermione and Harry could see what she was throwing over, they stretched out their hands unconsciously, a faint blue light enveloped them, and then they also disappeared out of thin air.
At the last moment of leaving, Su Fu glanced away - Filch pushed the door open and entered, facing the empty room, his expression of excitement froze immediately on his face.
"What about people—"
Before Filch's roar could completely dissipate in his ears, Su Fu and Harry and Hermione landed staggeringly in the ward of the school hospital. Dumbledore just got up, and Harry and Hermione were supposed to be lying on the hospital bed. Min's place was empty.
There was some loud commotion outside.
"Hurry up and lie down on the bed!" Su Fu pushed the two children over, she said and looked at Dumbledore, he frowned slightly, and said, "Why, things are not going well?"
"They changed the place where Sirius was held—but it should have succeeded, he escaped." Su Fu explained briefly, then turned around and jumped out of the window.
"What's going on here!" Fudge yelled furiously from outside the door, "How could you escape? There are obviously many confinement spells!"
The door of the ward was knocked open. When Fudge walked in, he saw the three children lying on the hospital bed, so he quickly lowered his voice: "Dumbledore, I want to search the school!"
"You don't have such power." Dumbledore replied indifferently.
"It's just—" Fudge gasped, "Blake was locked up in the basement a second ago, and he was gone in a blink of an eye?"
Harry and Hermione on the hospital bed looked at each other and let out a sigh of relief.
"This time you are guarding, it has nothing to do with the school."
"There is a magic prison near the school, so he won't be able to escape very far!" Fudge said indignantly, "As long as you allow me to search the entire school, I will definitely be able to catch him again!"
"I can't promise you, Connelly, school is where children study, and you're going to scare them—Severus?"
Severus came in from the outside in a hurry, his expression as cold as ice.
Before he even had time to speak, a slow voice came from outside the door: "Minister, McNeil has been found, he was put on a tree not far from Hogsmeade with a stun spell, of course, Miss Frank is gone."
Severus's already tightly frowned brows deepened, and he looked at Dumbledore sharply, but Dumbledore seemed to have no time to care about him, and turned towards the door, while the expression on Fudge's face became a little distorted Get up: "Frank—she must have let Blake go, and that makes sense...Only she can do it."
He blocked Dumbledore's way and asked aggressively, "Where is Sue Frank?"
"Su followed your request and went to Hogsmeade to look for the Dementor," Dumbledore said. "Until we find her, no one can make her bear unwarranted charges."
"I didn't wrong her this time," Lucius Malfoy at the door smiled, "The Aurors found her near the Forbidden Forest, thanks to Hogwarts' magical confinement, otherwise no one would be able to find her... ..."
Severus stepped out immediately.
Dumbledore gave Malfoy an unusually calm look, and walked out of the school hospital.
Only Fudge stood in the ward, looking at Harry and Hermione who were pretending to be asleep on the bed, whispered their lips twice, and was finally kicked out by Madam Pomfrey who rushed into the ward.
==
Su Fu knew that she knew something bad was going to happen from the moment they locked Sirius in a different place, so she was not surprised when four Aurors besieged her with their magic wands on the way to Hogsmeade .
She hung down her wand smoothly, and asked one of the red-haired Aurors with a smile, "Have you found McNeill?"
The female Auror glanced at her and couldn't help but said, "You're hiding too high—"
Su Fu shrugged, indifferently said: "No way, the floating spell is too good."
other people:"……"
Dumbledore and his party arrived 10 minutes later.
Su Fu caught sight of Lucius Malfoy in the crowd, narrowed his eyes dangerously, and moved his fingers hidden between his sleeves.
Fudge called out, "Sue Frank, you let Sirius Black go!"
Su Fu smiled lazily, and agreed: "Minister, you have to be responsible for what you said—"
"Then Miss Frank, how do you explain it?" Malfoy said suddenly, "The Auror who was put on a tree with a stun spell and had his wand taken away, and who was supposed to go to Hogsmeade to bring the dementor What about you, but you showed up at Hogwarts?"
Su Fu began to talk nonsense: "We were attacked by others, I want to go back and get rescuers."
The corners of the eyes of all the people present twitched. If you tell a lie, take some time off.
"Take her away!"
"stop!"
Dumbledore interrupted Fudge, and said coldly: "Minister, you don't have any evidence to prove that Sue Frank is guilty!"
Lucius Malfoy chuckled, and said, "But how does Miss Frank explain her behavior? Mr. McNeill is still in a coma, and his wand is gone."
Su Fu said innocently: "As I said, we were attacked, and I couldn't beat him. I want to go back and find someone to save him. As for his wand, how would I know?"
She really didn't know this, she just gave that Mr. Auror a spell that could make him dream but was difficult to break... black magic.
"Stop talking nonsense, where are the people who attacked you!"
Su Fu shrugged: "How do I know?"
"I don't think anyone can do anything about it without definite evidence—"
"Dumbledore, you'd better not mind your own business," Malfoy reminded, "Miss Frank is no longer your student."
"Every young man who graduates from Hogwarts is my student—including you, Lucius." Dumbledore said calmly, "And I have already issued a letter of appointment to Sue Frank, hiring her As the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts, it was only due to her personal reasons that she postponed her appointment, and as her headmaster, of course I have the responsibility to clear her of nonexistent crimes."
"Non-existent guilt—it's best not to draw a conclusion too early," Malfoy said sharply, and he looked at Fudge. "Of course, there is no evidence to prove that Miss Frank is guilty, but there is also no evidence to prove her innocence, so it's best now." Wait for Mr. McNeill to wake up first, but Miss Frank needs to be guarded, after all, the current situation..."
He sneered: "—it's not very beneficial to Miss Frank."
Severus suddenly said: "She did not commit a crime!"
"Let's do this first," Fudge looked at the confronting Dumbledore and Malfoy and said with some headaches, "We need to investigate to prove whether Black was let go by her..."
Su Fu smiled teasingly, and let the Auror take her wand away, and then she was taken away.
Both Malfoy and Fudge followed, and Malfoy could still be heard suggesting in the distance: "Let the Aurors look at her face to face this time, so as not to make any mistakes..."
Dumbledore frowned, and when he was about to turn around, Severus suddenly said in a gloomy voice: "Potter, Granger—you two ran out of school in the middle of the night, and you want Gryffindor Have you been deducted points?"
There was a rustling sound from the bushes on the side of the road. Harry and Hermione came out one after the other. The expressions on their faces were very anxious. Harry glanced in the direction where Su Fu was taken away from time to time. , without any hesitation about Severus' knife-like eyes.
Hermione trotted over anxiously, held up a cube-shaped object in front of Dumbledore, and said nervously, "This, Miss Frank—the professor's mobile phone, a gentleman named Sherlock Holmes called just now and said, He can find proof of Sirius' innocence!"
==
Back in time to the moment when Dumbledore chased Severus out the door of the ward, and Fudge was kicked out by Madam Pomfrey—
Of course, Lucius Malfoy was also unceremoniously invited out. Madame Pomfrey smashed a rock-like piece of chocolate with a hammer very violently, and took a piece and stuffed it into the two halves very ungentlely. Harry and Hermione muttered something like "these people don't treat the ward as a ward and make a lot of noise", closed the curtains again, and closed the door in satisfaction after confirming that no one would disturb her patients.
So the only sound left in the darkness was the sound of Harry and Hermione chewing chocolate hard.
"Lumos!"
Harry whispered a spell, swallowed the last bit of chocolate, and said to Hermione, "They're going to catch Frank, she'll be taken away by them—"
"My God—" Hermione hiccupped softly, clutching her chest, "They're just... always wronging good people!"
"Let's go and see?" Harry suggested. "If they really want to arrest Frank, we can testify to her, just say, just say she came back to see us, and she was in the ward before..."
As he spoke, his already low voice became even lower, and even he himself felt that this reason was not credible.
And Hermione sat up suddenly, with a resolute look on Lan Yingying's face illuminated by the Fluorescent Curse in the darkness: "The secret passage behind the one-eyed wizard can lead to Hogsmeade, right?"
Harry nodded.
Hermione rolled over and got out of bed, opened the window quietly, and turned around, "Shall we go?"
Harry smiled happily, got out of bed and followed.
So the two of them turned out of the window in a dignified manner. The end of the secret road was in the warehouse of the Honeydukes Candy Store. They didn't wear invisibility cloaks, but luckily it was night and Hermione's skillful Hearing Curse, they went all the way. Unimpeded out of the shop, to the path of the Hogsmeade village.
In the stillness of the night, the full moon in the sky was fading away, and was covered by floating clouds. Harry and Hermione walked carefully on the road, as if the whole world was filled with the sound of their hearts beating and their footsteps.
They walked for a distance following the sound that appeared and disappeared in the distance, and Hermione suddenly said, "Harry, did you hear any sound?"
"what sound--"
"It's buzzing buzzing... very low, listen carefully—"
Harry approached her slightly, frowning for a while and said, "It seems...it's in your pocket——"
Hermione was startled, and hurriedly went to take out her pocket, and then took out a vibrating mobile phone.
"Mobile phone?" Harry asked in surprise, "Where did you get it?"
Apparently he was used to staying in the wizarding world, and he couldn't accept the sudden sight of Muggle electronic products.
"It belongs to Miss Frank," Hermione suddenly realized. "She just used her mobile phone as a door key to take us back to the ward..."
"What is a Portkey—"
"I have a call, can I answer it..."
The phone vibrated for two seconds and then rang again indomitably. Hermione caught a glimpse of a caller named Sherlock on the lit screen, and finally gritted her teeth and answered it.
"Hello—" she said bravely.
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then a man's voice sounded like a melodious piano legato: "Why is Sue Frank's cell phone here?"
Hermione said immediately, "I know Frank—I'm Hermione Granger, her... er, student—"
"Answer my previous question."
Hermione was stunned for a second, and then said calmly: "May I ask you and Miss Frank—"
"I know she's a wizard," he said with some impatience in his voice, "Now tell me, why are you holding Su's cell phone?"
"I—Miss Frank was taken away by Aurors," Hermione took a deep breath, "They said she let Sirius go, and we're going to find Professor Dumbledore now..."
The voice on the phone became a bit blurred, he seemed to take the phone away from his ear, and his unusually cold voice came faintly: "...she was taken away, you..."
There was a sound of "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping-pong, someone else cursed in a low voice, followed by a conversation that was spoken at a very fast pace and could not be heard clearly. Hermione was holding the phone tightly, not knowing what to say." She shouldn't have hung up the phone call, and in the gap of her hesitation, the man on the other end of the phone suddenly said: "If Sirius Black is proved not guilty, Su can also be acquitted."
The questioning sentence pattern used a calm and calm narrative tone. Hermione was infected by his calmness, and her fluctuating mood gradually calmed down. She thought about it: "Theoretically, this is the case, but—— "
"Then please tell Dumbledore," he interrupted Hermione again, but still in a calm tone, "I can find evidence to prove Sirius Black's innocence."
Hermione's eyes widened in surprise and she looked at Harry who was listening to the phone with the same expression as hers.
She took a deep breath and stammered: "... But, but I, I don't know that you—"
"Sherlock Holmes," he briefly introduced, and just a second before Hermione was about to hang up in a daze, his low and clear voice came from the receiver again, "Go to your headmaster immediately, little witch. "
After the phone was hung up, the surprised expressions on Harry and Hermione's faces lasted for a full two seconds, and then the two started talking like pouring beans.
"Are you going to Dumbledore as he asked -" Harry asked.
"Of course!" Hermione carefully stuffed Su Fu's cell phone into the pocket of her robe, "If there is any hope of saving Miss Frank and Sirius, we should all try... Hurry up, I just saw a spell over there." light."
The two hurried out along the path, and Harry continued panting while running: "——but...that, that person who called just now, who is he?"
Hermione combed her hair that was messed up by running with her fingers, showing a thoughtful expression: "He knows Frank is a wizard—"
She took it for granted and said firmly: "It must be her boyfriend!"
Harry asked breathlessly: "Is he a wizard... He said he could prove Sirius' innocence—"
"Oh no Harry," Hermione groaned, "When you encounter something, you can seriously think about it—this gentleman must not be a wizard, otherwise why does he have to call when he doesn't use the wizard's contact method?"
"But he knows about Dumbledore and Sirius..."
"What's so strange about this?" Hermione said impatiently, "My parents are both Muggles, and they also know that if he—Mr. Aren't things more than normal?"
Harry nodded: "You're right..."
Just as Hermione was about to agree, he suddenly stretched out his hand and dragged Hermione into the bushes. Not far away, two or three wizards in uniform walked by. Not long after, they heard Frank's voice, followed by Fudge and Dumbledore , and Draco's father.
They took Sue Frank away in a few words. Harry, who was hiding behind the bushes, clenched his fists. Hermione looked at the phone anxiously several times. Finally, only Dumbledore and Professor Snape were left in place. Before Snape's threat of deducting points was finished, Hermione pulled Harry and ran out.
"Here, Miss Frank—the professor's mobile phone. A man named Sherlock Holmes called just now and said that he can find evidence to prove Sirius' innocence!"
The author has something to say: Mr. Jiageng sends his greetings to you.
It took me less than 10 minutes to eat dinner yesterday for codewords. I have never eaten so fast since I graduated from high school, and I was shocked.
I feel sorry for myself, I don’t have time to TAT if I want to watch a movie, so do you leave a message?
Su Fu laughed and said, "It's just that the feeling after smelling it is not very good. If I insist on describing it, it's probably like mixing mustard and ginger and pouring it into the nose..."
Harry and Hermione: "..."
Su Fu explained again: "However, it has not been processed. If it is processed properly, the smell of chi-ki fruit has a very good effect on improving memory—"

She shook her magic, turned her head and told Harry and Hermione: "Stay here and don't move, I'll be right back!"
As she spoke, she walked out two steps, then turned back and picked up all the chichi fruits on the ground, and threw them towards the lake while running - after running for a long distance, she saw herself and Sif holding the wand Les, the two of them were rushing towards the school gate.

Lucius Malfoy chuckled, and said, "But how does Miss Frank explain her behavior? Mr. McNeill is still in a coma, and his wand is gone."
Su Fu said innocently: "As I said, we were attacked, and I couldn't beat him. I want to go back and find someone to save him. As for his wand, how would I know?"
She really didn't know this, she just gave that Mr. Auror a spell that could make him dream but was difficult to break... black magic.
"Stop talking nonsense, where are the people who attacked you!"
Su Fu shrugged: "How do I know?"
"I don't think anyone can do anything about it without definite evidence—"
"Dumbledore, you'd better not mind your own business," Malfoy reminded, "Miss Frank is no longer your student."
"Every young man who graduates from Hogwarts is my student—including you, Lucius." Dumbledore said calmly, "And I have already issued a letter of appointment to Sue Frank, hiring her As the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts, it was only due to her personal reasons that she postponed her appointment, and as her headmaster, of course I have the responsibility to clear her of nonexistent crimes."
"Non-existent guilt—it's best not to draw a conclusion too early," Malfoy said sharply, and he looked at Fudge. "Of course, there is no evidence to prove that Miss Frank is guilty, but there is also no evidence to prove her innocence, so it's best now." Wait for Mr. McNeill to wake up first, but Miss Frank needs to be guarded, after all, the current situation..."
He sneered: "—it's not very beneficial to Miss Frank."
Severus suddenly said: "She did not commit a crime!"
"Let's do this first," Fudge looked at the confronting Dumbledore and Malfoy and said with some headaches, "We need to investigate to prove whether Black was let go by her..."
Su Fu smiled teasingly, and let the Auror take her wand away, and then she was taken away.
Both Malfoy and Fudge followed, and Malfoy could still be heard suggesting in the distance: "Let the Aurors look at her face to face this time, so as not to make any mistakes..."
Dumbledore frowned, and when he was about to turn around, Severus suddenly said in a gloomy voice: "Potter, Granger—you two ran out of school in the middle of the night, and you want Gryffindor Have you been deducted points?"
There was a rustling sound from the bushes on the side of the road. Harry and Hermione came out one after the other. The expressions on their faces were very anxious. Harry glanced in the direction where Su Fu was taken away from time to time. , without any hesitation about Severus' knife-like eyes.
Hermione trotted over anxiously, held up a cube-shaped object in front of Dumbledore, and said nervously, "This, Miss Frank—the professor's mobile phone, a gentleman named Sherlock Holmes called just now and said, He can find proof of Sirius' innocence!"
==
Back in time to the moment when Dumbledore chased Severus out the door of the ward, and Fudge was kicked out by Madam Pomfrey—
Of course, Lucius Malfoy was also unceremoniously invited out. Madame Pomfrey smashed a rock-like piece of chocolate with a hammer very violently, and took a piece and stuffed it into the two halves very ungentlely. Harry and Hermione muttered something like "these people don't treat the ward as a ward and make a lot of noise", closed the curtains again, and closed the door in satisfaction after confirming that no one would disturb her patients.
So the only sound left in the darkness was the sound of Harry and Hermione chewing chocolate hard.
"Lumos!"
Harry whispered a spell, swallowed the last bit of chocolate, and said to Hermione, "They're going to catch Frank, she'll be taken away by them—"
"My God—" Hermione hiccupped softly, clutching her chest, "They're just... always wronging good people!"
"Let's go and see?" Harry suggested. "If they really want to arrest Frank, we can testify to her, just say, just say she came back to see us, and she was in the ward before..."
As he spoke, his already low voice became even lower, and even he himself felt that this reason was not credible.
And Hermione sat up suddenly, with a resolute look on Lan Yingying's face illuminated by the Fluorescent Curse in the darkness: "The secret passage behind the one-eyed wizard can lead to Hogsmeade, right?"
Harry nodded.
Hermione rolled over and got out of bed, opened the window quietly, and turned around, "Shall we go?"
Harry smiled happily, got out of bed and followed.
So the two of them turned out of the window in a dignified manner. The end of the secret road was in the warehouse of the Honeydukes Candy Store. They didn't wear invisibility cloaks, but luckily it was night and Hermione's skillful Hearing Curse, they went all the way. Unimpeded out of the shop, to the path of the Hogsmeade village.
In the stillness of the night, the full moon in the sky was fading away, and was covered by floating clouds. Harry and Hermione walked carefully on the road, as if the whole world was filled with the sound of their hearts beating and their footsteps.
They walked for a distance following the sound that appeared and disappeared in the distance, and Hermione suddenly said, "Harry, did you hear any sound?"
"what sound--"
"It's buzzing buzzing... very low, listen carefully—"
Harry approached her slightly, frowning for a while and said, "It seems...it's in your pocket——"
Hermione was startled, and hurriedly went to take out her pocket, and then took out a vibrating mobile phone.
"Mobile phone?" Harry asked in surprise, "Where did you get it?"
Apparently he was used to staying in the wizarding world, and he couldn't accept the sudden sight of Muggle electronic products.
"It belongs to Miss Frank," Hermione suddenly realized. "She just used her mobile phone as a door key to take us back to the ward..."
"What is a Portkey—"
"I have a call, can I answer it..."
The phone vibrated for two seconds and then rang again indomitably. Hermione caught a glimpse of a caller named Sherlock on the lit screen, and finally gritted her teeth and answered it.
"Hello—" she said bravely.
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then a man's voice sounded like a melodious piano legato: "Why is Sue Frank's cell phone here?"
Hermione said immediately, "I know Frank—I'm Hermione Granger, her... er, student—"
"Answer my previous question."
Hermione was stunned for a second, and then said calmly: "May I ask you and Miss Frank—"
"I know she's a wizard," he said with some impatience in his voice, "Now tell me, why are you holding Su's cell phone?"
"I—Miss Frank was taken away by Aurors," Hermione took a deep breath, "They said she let Sirius go, and we're going to find Professor Dumbledore now..."
The voice on the phone became a bit blurred, he seemed to take the phone away from his ear, and his unusually cold voice came faintly: "...she was taken away, you..."
There was a sound of "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping-pong, someone else cursed in a low voice, followed by a conversation that was spoken at a very fast pace and could not be heard clearly. Hermione was holding the phone tightly, not knowing what to say." She shouldn't have hung up the phone call, and in the gap of her hesitation, the man on the other end of the phone suddenly said: "If Sirius Black is proved not guilty, Su can also be acquitted."
The questioning sentence pattern used a calm and calm narrative tone. Hermione was infected by his calmness, and her fluctuating mood gradually calmed down. She thought about it: "Theoretically, this is the case, but—— "
"Then please tell Dumbledore," he interrupted Hermione again, but still in a calm tone, "I can find evidence to prove Sirius Black's innocence."
Hermione's eyes widened in surprise and she looked at Harry who was listening to the phone with the same expression as hers.
She took a deep breath and stammered: "... But, but I, I don't know that you—"
"Sherlock Holmes," he briefly introduced, and just a second before Hermione was about to hang up in a daze, his low and clear voice came from the receiver again, "Go to your headmaster immediately, little witch. "
After the phone was hung up, the surprised expressions on Harry and Hermione's faces lasted for a full two seconds, and then the two started talking like pouring beans.
"Are you going to Dumbledore as he asked -" Harry asked.
"Of course!" Hermione carefully stuffed Su Fu's cell phone into the pocket of her robe, "If there is any hope of saving Miss Frank and Sirius, we should all try... Hurry up, I just saw a spell over there." light."
The two hurried out along the path, and Harry continued panting while running: "——but...that, that person who called just now, who is he?"
Hermione combed her hair that was messed up by running with her fingers, showing a thoughtful expression: "He knows Frank is a wizard—"
She took it for granted and said firmly: "It must be her boyfriend!"
Harry asked breathlessly: "Is he a wizard... He said he could prove Sirius' innocence—"
"Oh no Harry," Hermione groaned, "When you encounter something, you can seriously think about it—this gentleman must not be a wizard, otherwise why does he have to call when he doesn't use the wizard's contact method?"
"But he knows about Dumbledore and Sirius..."
"What's so strange about this?" Hermione said impatiently, "My parents are both Muggles, and they also know that if he—Mr. Aren't things more than normal?"
Harry nodded: "You're right..."
Just as Hermione was about to agree, he suddenly stretched out his hand and dragged Hermione into the bushes. Not far away, two or three wizards in uniform walked by. Not long after, they heard Frank's voice, followed by Fudge and Dumbledore , and Draco's father.
They took Sue Frank away in a few words. Harry, who was hiding behind the bushes, clenched his fists. Hermione looked at the phone anxiously several times. Finally, only Dumbledore and Professor Snape were left in place. Before Snape's threat of deducting points was finished, Hermione pulled Harry and ran out.
"Here, Miss Frank—the professor's mobile phone. A man named Sherlock Holmes called just now and said that he can find evidence to prove Sirius' innocence!"
The author has something to say: Mr. Jiageng sends his greetings to you.
It took me less than 10 minutes to eat dinner yesterday for codewords. I have never eaten so fast since I graduated from high school, and I was shocked.
I feel sorry for myself, I don’t have time to TAT if I want to watch a movie, so do you leave a message?
