Chapter 260 3 Schools
While everyone else in Hogwarts was attracted by Madam Maxime, Sherlock, who had already met the Beauxbatons principal, did not express too much about her appearance like others. surprise.
So when the little girl hiding behind Madame Maxime waved to him, Sherlock noticed it immediately.
He and Fleur, who had not seen each other for more than a year, looked at each other.
During this period, the little girl would write him a letter almost every one or two months, telling him about her recent experiences in school and some interesting things, as if she wanted to develop Sherlock into a pen pal.
But Sherlock's replies to her were few and far between, and she could count them on the palm of her hand. Under such circumstances, when the real owner came to her door, Sherlock felt a little guilty, so he showed an awkward smile on his face, and also faced Fleur. He waved and responded to her.
Silk, who had always stood beside Sherlock and seemed to be ignoring him, but in fact had always focused on Sherlock, was naturally keenly aware of this scene.
There was no change in the expression on her face, except that the light golden eyes hidden under the black ribbon saw the beautiful face of Madame Maxime in the huge shadow.
"Do you know the Beauxbatons students?"
she asked abruptly.
Sherlock did not shy away from this. He shrugged and whispered in agreement with Dumbledore, who applauded the Beauxbatons students and the principal who had just arrived.
"Didn't I tell you before that I took Harry on a trip to France during the summer vacation when I met you? That's when I met her."
"She knows you well?"
"Fortunately, haven't you seen before that an exhausted owl will send me letters every once in a while? Those are all written by this Miss Delacour to me."
Speaking of this, Sherlock tilted his head and looked at Silk, who had never spoken to him more than tonight's two sentences in the past few days, and asked suspiciously.
"Why are you asking me this?"
At this moment, Silk pursed his lips again and said nothing, leaving Sherlock to ask a lonely question.
But Sherlock didn't care. This girl's temper was weird for more than a day or two.
After saying hello to Sherlock from afar, Fleur followed Beauxbatons' group into the castle.
The students and teachers of Hogwarts will continue to welcome Durmstrang's guests here.
Not long after they sent the Beauxbatons students into the castle, this magic school located in the northernmost part of Europe also gave the young wizards of Hogwarts an extremely shocking appearance.
They emerged from the bottom of the Black Lake on a ghost-like sailing ship!
The big ship anchored in the shallow waters of the Black Lake, and then set up a plank towards the shore. Under the leadership of a middle-aged wizard wearing black robes and a goatee on his chin, Durmstrang's Guests arrive at Hogwarts.
Before the group of people could get closer, everyone heard an enthusiastic voice.
"Dumbledore! How are you, my old man?"
Dumbledore, who was standing not far from Sherlock, was also smiling. He turned his head and glanced at Sherlock imperceptibly, and then stepped forward to meet the man with the goatee. The middle-aged wizard shook hands.
"Great, thank you, Professor Karkaroff." He replied enthusiastically.
The conversation between the two was like a pair of old friends reunited today after not seeing each other for many years.
But Sherlock, who had been staring at Karkaroff since he appeared, did not see any real enthusiasm and excitement in his eyes, but instead they were full of coldness and sharpness.
More than ten years later, Karkaroff looked very different from the one he saw in the Leaky Cauldron. Now he has a tact and cunning that he could not show before.
Karkaroff pretended to be nostalgic for Hogwarts Castle, and then called a Durmstrang student to his side in a showy manner.
At this time, the entire Hogwarts students also discovered who this student was.
Viktor Krum, the Seeker of the Bulgarian national team, performed exceptionally well despite his failure in the Quidditch World Cup that just ended.
Dumbledore walked into Hogwarts Castle with the last guests, followed by the chattering Hogwarts students who kept whispering that they wanted Krum to sign their robes. Entered the auditorium.
"Oh my God! Oh my God! It's Krum! Harry, I can't believe that such a great Quidditch player is still a student!"
Hermione rolled her eyes unsatisfied with Ron's now fussy reaction.
"Isn't he just a Quidditch player? Why are you so excited?"
She held her head high and passed by three sixth-grade girls who were chatting excitedly, asking Krum to sign their robes and whether they would agree.
And Ron was also in disbelief at Hermione's lackluster reaction at the moment.
"Isn't that right? Didn't we watch the Quidditch World Cup together? Didn't you see his wonderful performance in the game?"
Hermione was impatient with Ron's current performance as a fanboy. She no longer paid attention to him, but turned to Harry and asked.
"You told us before, where is that friend you met while traveling in France with Professor Forrester? Has she come over today?"
Harry shook his head. Fleur had been covering her head with a scarf because she was not used to the cold air in England, and she didn't specifically greet him, so Harry didn't see her.
"She may not be qualified. She didn't come to Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com, right?"
While they were chatting, they also walked into the auditorium.
Although the entire auditorium was decorated today for the arrival of guests from two other magic schools, in order to allow students from the three schools to communicate better, two more tables were not added to the auditorium.
When Harry and the others walked in, Beauxbatons' little wizards had already chosen the long table in Ravenclaw to sit down.
After hesitating for a moment, Durmstrang's students also sat on the long table of Slytherin House.
Ron, who had turned into a crazy fan, was full of disappointment. He stared at Malfoy who was chatting with Krum, and followed Hermione and Harry to complain for a long time like an abandoned wife.
Dumbledore stood on the high platform and welcomed the guests of the two schools.
While he was making a welcome speech, among the Beauxbatons students at the Ravenclaw table, a girl whose face was covered with a scarf and couldn't see clearly caught Hermione's attention.
