16. Go home and be punished
Sherlock wakes up early on Saturday morning half an hour earlier than the others, after all, Hogwarts students have the same good habit of lying in bed on Saturdays and weekends as Muggle students.
But Sherlock prefers to get up earlier to experience the cool and refreshing natural breath that doesn't take long in the morning, after all, morning is the beginning of the day.
But he had to get up earlier anyway today, after all, he had received a roaring letter from his mother, ordering him to go home this Saturday, and for those who had learned the shapeshifting charm, there was no need to wait for the Hogwarts train that was fixed every week.
You only need to leave the magic protection range of Hogwarts to use the shapeshifter at will, but when he was leaving Hogwarts Castle, Sherlock also considered whether he had time to study the magic protection mechanism of Hogwarts to see if he could find a loophole in it.
Originally, Camilla strongly refused to go back to Mephisto Cottage with her master this morning, because Camilla felt that it was better for her, as a pet snake, not to suffer as a pet snake when her master was going home to be punished.
Even when Pyros returned, he explained to Camilla how Mrs. Ellie had rudely dragged it over after writing the letter, and then took the yelling letter and threw it out of the window.
At that time, the terrible scene was that Pelos was about to fall to the ground before he realized that he was a bird, so he quickly flew away and saved his life in time.
"At that time, I was so scared that I almost forgot what the skill of a bird was, and when I was thrown out of the window, I seemed to see my grandparents who had passed away."
At that time, Pelos had an unforgettable expression, and the bluffing Camilla was stunned, so this time she followed Sherlock to return to Mephisto Castle, she originally refused, but she couldn't resist her master.
Changing his image to Mephisto Mansion, the house-elf Shogg seems to have received an order to wait in front of the gate of Mephisto Mansion, waiting for Sherlock's return.
"Young master, the master arranged for me to wait for you here in advance...... Madame's temper has not been very good these days, and the lord does not dare to sleep in the same bed with her, and the most important thing is that a distant guest came to the house yesterday. ”
"A guest from afar?"
"Yes...... From a place where politics was very chaotic...... In the cold country of the far north, the other party is your uncle. ”
"My uncle?"
Sherlock was stunned, because he had never heard much about his mother's family since he was a child, and to be precise, his father and mother had never discussed this in front of Sherlock and Asinsha.
But yesterday an uncle who had never heard of him came to visit, and who was still living in Mephisto Estate, Sherlock did not doubt his uncle's true identity at all, but he felt a little puzzled by the sudden news.
"What's his name?"
Shog said softly, "Your uncle's name is 'Waglie Anguyuvs-Belaviv'!" ”
"Damn! The other party turned out to be from the USSR! I didn't even know that my mother was Soviet. ”
"After all, everyone calls Lady Ellie's current name, Ellie Mephisto."
Shylock felt a little depressed, after all, based on his previous life, he knew that the Soviet Union in 91 was a mess and a bad mess, and the Soviet Union was about to collapse in half a year, and at that time, Russia, the largest country after the disintegration, would enter a real economic depression.
Although Sherlock's prestige in the European wizarding world is unparalleled for a while, after all, who doesn't know the famous Prince of Spells, but he doesn't know much about the situation on the Soviet side, maybe the entire European wizarding world still doesn't know that the Muggle world Europe is in the United States-led NATO and the Soviet Union-led Warsaw Pact is in a crazy Cold War.
That's a careless thing, any little fuse could trigger a third world war, and maybe even nuclear bombs flying all over the sky!
Shog returned to the castle of Mephisto Manor.
It was the first time he had seen his mother look so angry and worried.
"Uh...... Mother I ......"
"Come here, he's your uncle, 'Waglie Anguyovs Belavev.'"
Sherlock met the uncle from the Soviet Union in the north, who was really burly, tall but thin.
"I've been following your news all along, and if it weren't for the country's political situation, I should have come over to see you and Asin Sha earlier."
"Uh...... Is it. ”
Sherlock didn't know what to say, and at this time, Fumond stood beside Sherlock and whispered, "The magical world in the Soviet Union is different from most places in Europe, if you go over there, you will understand that the magical regime in the Soviet Union is completely a bunch of crazy people." ”
Sherlock was tempted to explain that the Soviets, who were now on the verge of collapse, were insane, but he didn't say it given that his uncle was still in front of him.
Because Sherlock came back very early, not yet seven o'clock in the morning, Fourmond arranged for the house-elves to prepare a good breakfast, in the process of dining, Sherlock saw that his mother Ellie and his uncle were obviously each with their own thoughts, but his father Holmmond had a completely heartless expression, and after eating there easily, he hurried to say that he was going to France to deal with some official business.
While the other three were at the dinner table, Sherlock was interested in asking his mother and uncle about his mother's Soviet origins.
"Could it be that there were no magic schools in the Soviet Union? Mother, why did you go to Hogwarts in the first place? ”
"Of course there were magic schools in the USSR...... But you also have to know that the Soviet Union belongs to a special union country composed of fifteen union republics, although the main body is in Russia, but in fact, a magic school composed of more than ten national forms, the level of education in it is still very mixed, and at the beginning of this century, when the Russian emperor was not overthrown by Lenin, the Russian magic community has actually had a very deep cooperation with the Russian imperial power. ”
"Even in the heyday of the Soviet Union, which was completely under the orders of Lenin and later Stalin, in fact, the internal magical power was still divided between the member states, which made the Soviet Union a monolith during the Lenin and Stalin years of the Muggles, but the wizarding world at that time was at war within the Soviet Union."
"At that time, in the middle and late Soviet Union, when the wizarding world was already very serious, your mother, my youngest sister, had to be sent to Hogwarts, which was known as the safest school in Europe at the time."
