Harry of the Sherlock Holmes

There is a basilisk in Hogwarts, which of course is very important and amazing news.But Snape calmed down quickly after being excited for a while, and looked sternly at Harry who was [hissing] chatting happily with the little snake: "Why don't you go to class?" I was a little dizzy from the excitement, even ignoring that it was long past school time and the boy was still hanging out.

"This..." Harry dodged behind John, "This class is Defense Against the Dark Arts." If it wasn't for Lockhart not seeing him in class, he would become more attached to him, and he would have given up on that class a long time ago. It turned into a performing arts class (and even if it taught acting, the class sucks. Harry decided to go home and show his friends the video of their graduation performance from their elementary school drama club, and laugh at them in class various stiff poses on the screen).But now that his parents are here, there is no need to worry about that idiot.

"Hmph." After glancing at Harry, Snape turned around and left, "Where is that basilisk now?" He had also heard about the farce of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course, so if he didn't go to it... that's all.As for the news that there is a basilisk in Hogwarts, do you want to tell Dumbledore?Didn't that sweet-loving old bee say that she is solely responsible for the life of the "special adviser" at school this time?Then let him continue to sit in the office and slowly get in touch with the moths in his teeth. Anyway, he will not provide him with any more dental medicines.

"This way, this way." Harry dragged his fathers to follow.

Under Harry's leadership, they walked through the long corridors of Hogwoods with twists and turns until the boy's pace slowed down.

"What's the matter, Harry?" John asked worriedly.

"This is the girls' bathroom," Snape said. "Are you sure that stupid pet of yours can really tell which is which?"

Harry didn't pay attention to the poisonous tongue of the Potions professor, and calmly explained: "This is what the tape says, the place of the Moaning Myrtle." He ignored the big sign that said "Malfunction" and was about to push it away. Door.

"Wait a minute!" Sherlock jumped up suddenly, grabbing the strap.

Harry looked at Sherlock puzzled: "Uh...Father?" He completely ignored the little snake's hissing cry for help, anyway, this wasn't the first time the tape had been treated like this.If you get used to it, it will definitely grow into a very good snake.

"We missed something." Sherlock stared at the brass knob on the door, "Mrs. Potter has lived with the castle for thousands of years if she doesn't stay here often, and she doesn't even know that the basilisk is still here." News, indicating that it has indeed come out recently. A basilisk, a basilisk that can be counted among magical creatures, if it can move freely, it will certainly not be without news for so long. Salazar Slytherin left , but the other Big Three did not express anything special about the pets he left behind. It must not be because they didn’t want to, but because they couldn’t. So the basilisk was left by Slytherin in a place that could only be entered by passing him. What did he have? Famous gift? Ha, Parseltongue. Harry is Parseltongue, but he was brought on the tape, so—”

"There's still a Parseltongue hidden in Hogwarts," Snape said sullenly.What they thought before was too careless.Although according to Adela Potter's description, Slytherin himself has no intention of harming anyone in Hogwarts; but this does not mean that those who think they are his "descendants of the will" are also the same Thought.Instead, they let the Basilisk out after Harry blew himself up about the "Parstongue" question during the Sorting Ceremony...

[What are you all doing here?Can't even open a door, how stupid. ] The belt finally escaped Sherlock's clutches and slipped out to the ground.Under the surprised eyes of everyone, he knocked on the pattern under the washbasin door with his tail, and crawled in through the small hole that suddenly opened above, [I'm still waiting to see my friends. ]

Then they heard a shrill female voice coming from inside, and before they could think about it, John and Lestrade rushed in.

They ran across the wet floor, past a large, stained and cracked mirror, and a row of sinks of chipped stone, to the innermost single room.A ghost girl is shivering in the toilet.Beside her, two little snakes were entangled side by side.

"Is this - a basilisk?" John asked Harry in disbelief.Although the other snake in front of him is green all over, and at the same time glowing with the unique brilliance of poisonous snakes, it is far different from the giant in his mind (its body is not very thick, nor long, and it is even bigger than the snake on closer inspection). straps are even smaller).Although he doesn't have a deep thirst for knowledge about the wizarding world like Sherlock does, more often he reads what happens in this magical world as a pastime.But you can also feel the horror of the basilisk from a few words in some legends. Could it be this little snake?

"Hmm..." Harry was also very surprised, the tape kept telling him "a big guy".Do snakes have different criteria for judging size?

[Helbo is amazing, it can change size] Belt explained to Harry.It would be great if it could do the same. It can go anywhere without worrying about being bullied by those big guys.

The basilisk whose name was named shook its head, and said with a hiss that was deeper than the belt: [Are you Harry Potter?Hmm - Potter, the Potter boy.Sarah said—] It suddenly swallowed the second half of the sentence again.

[What did Lord Slytherin say? ] Harry couldn't help asking.From the moment Adela mentioned the prophecy vaguely, he felt as if he was involved in it.

But the basilisk did not answer this question, but raised its head high again: [The tape said, do you have a question for me? ]

[You can't always be active at Hogwarts, who opened the door for you? ] After some deliberation, Harry opted for the more respectful phrase of "open the door for you" instead of "let you out".

Haierbo was obviously also very satisfied with this statement. He wagged his tail happily and thought for a long time before answering: [The person who opened the door for me...you mean that handsome young man? ]

[Handsome...] Harry paused, the expression was too vague. [Do you have a more specific description, appearance, smell, whatever. ]

[Hmm... is it black hair or blond hair?Ah, he smelled of Slytherin blood. ] Haierbo's voice became even deeper and more terrifying.Its long letter swayed in the air. If the snake could sneer, it must have this expression: it has never paid special attention to the "intruder" because of its blood relationship.For thousands of years it put itself into a deep sleep to preserve its strength, until it was awakened by that cranky kid.Slytherin blood?Does it know few people in that family?Only Salazar can make it look good.What's more, what Sarah left behind was to let herself protect Hogwarts at a critical moment, instead of killing some kind of wizard.If it wasn't incapable of hurting Parseltongue, it would have torn the kid who didn't know what was going on—is it that hard to be quiet and listen to the old man tell a story?It stared at Harry carefully again: Children of the Potter family... It's almost time.

"Slytherin..." Harry and the elders carefully analyzed Haierbo's words, and couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat - that was the only descendant of Slytherin who had heard about it in recent years.And Snape knew very well how many pure-blood nobles that man had used his blood talent to sacrifice their lives—the Dark Lord was not dead after all.

[If I and he ordered you at the same time, who would you listen to? ] Harry suddenly thought of a question, the basilisk cannot disobey the orders of the Parseltongue, but if two people at the same time...

[If your orders are exactly the opposite, I can do as I wish. ] Hai Erbo replied, [But as long as you swear that you will do your best to protect Hogwarts, I agree to sign a contract with you and only obey your orders. ]

……

"Harry——" John looked at their son seriously, "Do you know what your choice means?" If the crises and battles Harry encountered before were driven by fate, then signing the contract now is his responsibility. It's up to you to choose.

"Father, Father, Uncle, Professor Snape," the man bowed deeply to them, "I am lucky in my life to have you elders, and I also hope to shoulder something and become your pride. "

"Heh," Snape couldn't help expressing emotion when he saw the brilliance that represented the establishment of the magic contract. Harry was really different from the arrogant and annoying James Potter he remembered. He was one--

"So, my dear father and professor, do you want to study Haierbo more carefully?" Harry, who had finished communicating with Haierbo, held the shrunken basilisk in front of their eyes, showing a dangerous smile—he It's not because Hai Erpo refuses to tell him what Slytherin said about the Potter family, so he is fussing about it.

Harry is a naughty but understanding boy.Eyeing the rare magical animal with an anatomical gaze, Snape added absently.

Sherlock has already stepped forward to pick up Hai Erbo, thought for a while, and then stopped: "Even if the basilisk can change its body shape at will, it must have chosen the most natural one after staying here for a thousand years. One way. Harry, ask where it usually lives. Snakes—but they shed their skin."
