[Shen Xia + HP] The Magical Girl of Sherlock Holmes

. "

"Hermione, call me Hermione, sir."

Mycroft raised his eyebrows, and responded in a friendly manner: "Alright Hermione, then you don't need to call me Mr., you are not my subordinate. Just call me Mycroft."

"Mycroft, there is one thing I want to ask for your help this time."

"Don't rush and don't ask. I'm happy to offer some small help, I think we have enough time to communicate. Now let's order first. This French restaurant has a lot of history. The main thing is that the dishes are very good. Authentic and delicious, worth tasting.”

McCoff recommended several dishes, and it was obvious that he was familiar with them, and the meals he wanted to come here really suited his taste.

"Would you like some wine? I think you're over 16."

"Actually I'm over 17, a grown-up in the wizarding world. I'd love to have a drink, but don't know much about it."

“Then ask for a bottle of dry Almentia sherry, which is delicious and drinkable, and goes well with cheese and game.”

After ordering, Mycroft habitually played with the ring on his hand, which also made Hermione notice the familiar red.

"I solidified an armor body on this ring, which is a defensive spell. I think since it involves the magic world, no matter how useful it is, some protection is always needed. And this gem can be made into a portkey , this kind of magic can quickly transform people from one space to another. You can set up a safe house first, and then I will cast this magic on you."

Hermione explained the specific function of this ring. She wanted to explain it last Christmas, but it's not too late now.It's just that the casting of the magic of the Portkey made Hermione hesitate for a long time, until now she finally made up her mind.The situation is too dangerous, and an armor protection is really insignificant at a critical moment.

"Is this magic troublesome? Tell me what the price is?" Mycroft always knew what he wanted to know, and the questioning sentence expressed a positive tone.

Hermione sighed as if giving up, "It's nothing, it's just that the Portkey Office of the Ministry of Magic has very strict restrictions on its use. Before making this Portkey, you must apply for registration with the Ministry of Magic. The consequences of using an unapproved Portkey It would be very serious. Maybe Azkaban? But who cares? Neither the Dark Lord nor the White Wizard use it without saying hello."

Speaking of the turbulent negative emotions in Principal Dumbledore's heart, Principal Dumbledore is the beacon in everyone's heart, and everyone loses their direction without him.The whole heart was being pulled by invisible hands, unable to break free at all.Hermione looked down at the plate of seared scallops and clam minestrone, seemingly concentrating on savoring the food.

For the first time, Mycroft felt protected.Due to his outstanding personal ability and strong personality, he has always been the one who helps and protects in the group.No one had ever thought of or had the ability to protect him, and for a moment a strange and warm power filled his chest.

Mycroft made no attempt to comfort her, for comfort seemed to him the most useless and the weakest of things. "You, you and the savior are going to leave the school to find something that is the key to defeating the Dark Lord. But you have no clue, no clue, and no help, because Headmaster Dumbledore needs you to keep it secret .”

"What did Principal Dumbledore tell you? How much do you know?" Hermione raised her head excitedly. Principal Dumbledore left too suddenly, and there was no time to explain anything.But thinking of the conversation they had had, maybe the headmaster had told him.

"No, I don't know more than you." It's a pity that Mycroft shook his head and said regretfully: "Principal Dumbledore is one of the very few people I have ever met who can keep secrets best, and is also the best at keeping secrets. He didn't Reveal to me more secrets about the Dark Lord, these are only deductions.

The death of Principal Dumbledore means that the school is no longer safe for the savior, and leaving the school is the best choice.At the same time, the information about the Dark Lord was collected by my people, so of course I have analyzed these materials more than once.The Dark Lord is a person who longs for immortality. He enjoys bringing death to others and fears his own death.Originally, he was quite charismatic as a leader, but then gradually changed.This change is a bit abrupt, so I guess it should be caused by the power of magic. In order to live forever, he cast some unknown magic.Maybe the magic failed, no, if it failed, he would not be able to come back from the dead. I think this kind of ability is also rare among wizards.That is the flaw in magic itself. "

Hermione watched the captivating look in his blue eyes, and listened quietly to Mycroft's performance. "Since magic is flawed, this is its Achilles' heel. As much power as this magic brings, so is its weakness. Mr. Principal discovered it and told you, but you didn't take it right away. Effective action means you don't have a clue about this. So tell me, what help do you need from me?"

Hermione didn't know how much to reveal, but she really needed Mycroft's help.

"We're looking for something, and that's important. But I can't give specifics, sorry. I know you have some sources in the wizarding world, and I want you to provide important information about the wizarding world and Hogwarts. Because Harry and I are indeed leaving school, we need to keep abreast of what's going on outside. It would be great if we can get help from those people. Finally, it's my personal request, I would like you to arrange for my parents .send them to a faraway country of safety until the end of the war, or . . . ”

Hermione didn't say the last words, but they knew each other well.Mycroft picked up the glass and took a sip, but Hermione didn't urge her, she knew that this was something that needed careful consideration.Just when the main course came, it was lobster mousse with Aquitaine caviar and champagne butter sauce.The tender and smooth lobster meat is paired with rich and thick champagne butter sauce. The taste buds are distinct, and the lively taste of caviar is really a top enjoyment.

McCoff took off the silver ring he was wearing and handed it to her, "If you need help, you can use this ring. You can call me at any time. I think most places in the wizarding world cannot completely shield electronic signals. As for Your parents are just a little effort, I will arrange them properly, just how to explain to them you have to consider."

"I've already thought about it," Hermione held the ring tightly in her hand, "Thank you for your gift."

"Okay, I think we can concentrate on the delicious food in front of us. I will be abroad for the next week, and I'm afraid I won't be able to taste such delicious food." Mycroft sliced ​​the grilled Scotch beef Philip with wild mushroom red wine on the plate Onion juice, ready to end this heavy topic.

"I like these dishes very much, thank you for bringing me to this restaurant." Hermione obediently changed the subject, "Have you reconciled with your brother?"

"We've always been like that. There's been no reconciliation. But he does know where to stand, and I should be able to give him more credit. He recently went to the Baskerville area to investigate a case, and I hope he doesn't come back." Tell me what kind of mess it is." Mycroft looked dismissive and understated, but he could see that he was very relieved.

"Baskerville area? Is there really any mysterious biochemical research there?"

"I thought you were a witch!" Mycroft emphasized on "witch".

"When I was a child, before I received the Hogwarts notice at the age of 11, my parents always thought that I would become a scientist, a biologist or something in the future."

"I'm afraid that will disappoint you. There is indeed a military base there, and some secret research projects are carried out in it. But it is not some alien or magical creature-like modified animal."

Just as he was talking, Mycroft's cell phone rang. He glanced at it and sighed helplessly.

"Is it your brother?" Only the matter of his brother can make this man show such an expression.

"Yes, Sherlock stole my identity card and entered the military base in Baskerville to investigate the situation. I think I will find someone to check on him, maybe he can bring me some surprises."

Talking about their recent situation, Mycroft has never talked with anyone like this.He knew something was getting out of hand, but he unexpectedly didn't want to correct it.All he can do is to maintain the status quo, that is, not to let the relationship go back to the beginning, and not to go further out of control.

Placement

The month of July passed smoothly and quickly. Hermione not only spent a lot of time with her parents this month, but also needed to make preparations for future adventures.Fortunately, starting from this summer vacation, there will be no more notices that minors are not allowed to use magic outside of school.

Hermione watched her father sitting on the sofa and reading the newspaper leisurely, while her mother was busy in the kitchen, enjoying the last peace.

"Weng - Weng -" the phone vibrated in his pocket, and Hermione took it out twice before taking it out.

"Time's Up - MH"

Hermione pursed her lips, carefully concealed herself and walked to the back of the sofa, raised her wand and "swoon-".Dad lay unconscious on the sofa. Before mother noticed the movement in the living room, Hermione hurriedly cast a stun spell on Mrs. Granger.

Opening the door, Mycroft was already waiting at the door with his black umbrella that never left his body. "Please come in," Hermione stood hesitantly holding her wand tightly in the living room.

It felt like a long time passed, Mycroft didn't push, he didn't do anything, but Hermione knew he was watching her the whole time.Hermione knows can't
