Harry of the Sherlock Holmes

Chapter 24: Nick Flamel's Invitation

Yet it is a sad fact that all students have to face—no matter how much interest they may have in anything else, exams are always a hurdle they cannot get over.Before Harry could collect more information, Hermione dragged him to the library to review.

"Don't try to escape!" The little witch grabbed the boy who wanted to escape, "Don't think I don't know what you did in History of Magic and Astronomy class." She stuffed a thick stack of papers into Harry's mouth. In his arms, "Recite them all for me!"

Ron gloated at the side: "Haha, Harry, you'd better be obedient." He made a face at Hermione, "Oh, Hermione, you are finally being fair, and you don't spoil Harry anymore."

His words were echoed immediately - as a show of absolute fairness to his friends, Hermione gave him a thicker review outline than Harry's. "Harry is just partial, and most of his grades are nothing to worry about. You have a lot more to do than him."

Although most people seem to complain about Hermione's pressure on them to study, they are actually very grateful for it in their hearts - those very targeted review outlines and review materials can fully reflect Hermione's thoughtfulness .Gore and Crabbe thought they secretly gave the little witch a lot of snacks. Some of their practical classes were generally good, but they had a headache when it came to details and theory.

But this kind of high intensity still needs to be moderately relaxed-Harry thought that Hermione might be trying to use the exam to divert his attention from the worrying events that happened in school (he didn't really care about grades, but he not wanting to disappoint his friend), she tried to fill all his spare time (after the "accident" of the first match, Harry wasn't even allowed to play Quidditch, Gryffindor and none of the captains of Slytherin can earn more than the Queen of Gryffindor).So when they received an invitation from Nick Flamel to visit his office, almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

This is an untidy but very functional office - all materials are carefully labeled and placed regularly to prevent misuse and accidents (never expect Sherlock's The laboratory also has such a guarantee—sometimes certain patterns can be found in his collection, for example, certain parts of the human body can always be found in the refrigerator; It was probably hydrochloric acid, John didn't know how many times he had yelled at Sherlock for this kind of thing, but Sherlock always put on an innocent face and insisted that he couldn't tell what was in the bottle because people didn't pay attention for the sake of).At the other end of the room is a large experimental table, on which you can see many different styles of instruments.

Harry shifted his body uneasily, trying to find a more suitable position to sit.Flamel's invitation was too sudden, which made everyone feel both surprised and nervous. At the beginning of the school year, the principal mentioned that there might be some lucky ones who would receive the attention of the master alchemist and receive special instructions. Basically, he is bored in the office and cannot come out. This serious research posture makes the students dare not even disturb him with questions easily.Even the twins restrained their temper and looked at it with a serious face-a specially shaped lamp in Nick's office.

Flamel obviously noticed their gazes, and smiled and said, "Are you looking at this?" He handed the things to the children so that they could observe carefully, "This is a magic blowtorch I like very much, it can be heated freely temperature."

He opened the drawer, took out a shell-shaped bottle with exquisite workmanship, and poured some golden liquid from it into the lamp.The blue flames rushed up, and a scorching sensation hit the face.Harry saw the flames and easily melted a silver bar - it must have been heated to over a thousand degrees Celsius (1).

"It's so cool," Fred exclaimed.

"That's right, with this thing, many materials don't need to be refined in special furnaces at all." George added that many processes can be simplified. "In the process of making their various self-made products, many times they have to find substitutes because the materials cannot be processed properly, which is really not an easy task.

Nick Flamel is worthy of being a true master, and Harry also sighed in his heart - a person who really loves his work will guarantee himself the conditions to work under any circumstances.Wizards can simulate the conditions for most items to be produced through magic, but Mailer’s tools reflect his strict requirements for alchemy production (there is no clear evidence to point out the impact of different magic environments on the production of alchemy products , but everyone believes that the difference between each alchemist's products is not only in their production techniques and methods, but also closely related to the origin of the creator's magic power).

After introducing his props, Flamel finally explained the reason for inviting them: "I saw the result of your communicator, and I must say, it is very creative and well-made. You have done a lot about the sound information and magic transformation. is excellent."

All are extremely honored to receive this commendation, which is the fruit of their collective labor.

"However, I heard from Albus that you have encountered a little trouble in the production process?"

"Uh... yes, but it has been resolved. The one you are holding should be our previous experiment." Harry explained.The encryption of the communicator has always been a difficult point in their work, but later they got inspiration from Muggle cryptography and decided to match the transmission of special information with human magic power (they still cannot distinguish all the magic power connections open, so the method of storing the owner's magic power in the device for a short period of time is adopted to maintain contact).However, just after they completed this step, the communicator was transferred to a monitor to monitor Quirrell. In order to prevent news from leaking, the new results were not introduced to the professors.

"Oh, the progress is kept secret?" Flamel smiled understandingly.He was just amazed at the creativity of this group of children - for hundreds of years, the research level of alchemy in the magic world has become deeper and deeper, and the research direction has become more and more obscure. Few people can apply technology so well in practice went. "So when you guys are actually done, can I have a look?"

"That's our pleasure," Harry replied, "actually if you're not busy we'd like to ask you a lot of questions." They had a list of questions for several pages.

"Oh, I'd be happy to answer your questions."

After some wonderful explanations, Harry couldn't help fiddling with the pages of the list, and everyone else held their breath-only one last question remained.

"Dear Master Flamel, are you the only holder of the Philosopher's Stone in the world?"

Unexpectedly, they would ask so directly, LeMay froze for a moment, then nodded and admitted: "Yes, the Philosopher's Stone is here." He got up and walked towards a tall black solid wood cabinet in the room, from which He took out a small box and lifted the lid, "It's actually not as magical as you think, remember, I mentioned it..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted - Quirrell suddenly barged in.

"Mr. Le-Mr. Le May, I'm sorry-I'm sorry to bother you, I-I didn't know you had-we have guests." His eyes skipped the bright red stone, and he stammered and explained.
