As a well-equipped space battleship, even though it is now regarded as a sightseeing ship, it still has the necessary facilities, such as a medical cabin that is relatively confidential and has good sound insulation.
At this time, in the medical cabin, Gandalf and Sherlock were sitting across a desk from each other, as if professional psychologists were treating teenagers with psychological problems.
In a sense, this seems to be true.
"'Why are you so serious?'"
Gandalf looked seriously into Sherlock's eyes:
"Is this really what the 'other self' you dreamed about said?"
"That's indeed what I said, Mr. Principal," Sherlock pursed his lips: "But I think that's not 'another me', but 'myself'."
"Then, why do you think so?" Gandalf leaned back slightly, folded his hands on the table, and then asked.
"..." Sherlock looked confused, his eyes flashed, and he hesitated to speak.
Gandalf didn't rush him, he just sat there and thought about his experiences before coming.
————
The Wizard Tower he was previously assigned to at Hogwarts went through the entry procedures for a new professor who sometimes calls himself "Ulysses Crow" and sometimes calls himself "Gulu". According to the arrangement of "White Yinluvita", he should be allowed to take over the teaching "
"Molecular influence", but this kind of nagging performance seems to be more suitable for "divination".
After all, when "Ulysses Crow" is the dominant personality, he is just an uninteresting materials scientist, but when "Gulu" is the dominant personality, he will tell some truths about the world in a confusing way.
For example, he would point at the "Scarlet Witch" who was dozing in a high-back chair and shout: "Fish! What a big fish! Tiger shark!"
Then he was hit on the head by the book she threw at him.
Later, the Avengers who were originally planning to play as a family and friends group at the end of the third game hurriedly contacted him and said that Sherlock was "possessed".
Is it a tradition to use Madam Vice-Chancellor's words indiscriminately?
The conventional usage of this word refers to a person who is possessed by demons and monsters and behaves abnormally. In a sense, "Gulu" is now considered "possessed", but Sherlock?
Anyone with a little bit of discernment knows how much "White Yin Luvita" values this child. Not only did he pick him up in person when he enrolled, but he also took the initiative to bring him into the "Magic Dimension" to buy things. After enrolling, in order to avoid other students being dissatisfied, he not only gave away time stones but also gave him time stones.
There was no special care, but the things and abilities that her followers voluntarily gave her... If it were announced, little James' teeth would be sore.
This kind of treatment must not be because this child has shown some kind of ability similar to "space-time guidance". There are many children with strong talents in other fields, but no one has received such great preferential treatment.
Even if he is not as skilled in reasoning as Sherlock, Gandalf can guess that this is obviously paving the way for him to take over as the principal of Hogwarts or even the "Supreme Wizard" in the future.
After all, he was only on "secondment" and would have to leave sooner or later, and the "White Yinluvita", who had a higher status, had no reason to stay in this world.
Based on previous experience, she will take away many people from every world she experiences. The standard is a mystery, and Sherlock Holmes is obviously not one of them.
When he received the message from "Second Form", Gandalf happened to be discussing the problem with Professor Drizzt Do'Urden in the wizard's tower, so he went directly upstairs to ask what happened to "Sherlock's evil".
The answer given by "Scarlet Witch" is: "Huh?"
OK, I understand, this is either a purely spiritual issue or an influence from "subspace".
The other "Universe Demon Gods" are either trying to make their believers die for them, or they are busy opening up territories and expanding dimensions. Only the alien "Ocean Demon God White Star", while sticking to the earth and not going anywhere, also doesn't want to go anywhere.
Intended to interfere with human thought.
So, how did the ridiculous purpose of "eliminating the 'wall of heart' between all humans and creating a 'sea of soul'" be recognized by other universe demons? Are they all fools?
"Well, wait..." Scarlet Witch tapped the armrest of the high-backed chair with her wand and spoke again: "Because he has destroyed the 'Eye of Sauron', which is the big eyeball made of flames.
The two have established a connection. When space and dimensions are unstable, they can occasionally see what the other party sees simultaneously. Because they are all things in 'subspace', it is normal for them to go a little crazy after seeing too much."
"Establish a connection?" Gandalf expressed doubts. If it was indeed the "Eye of Sauron" that followed him into this world, Sherlock would have had his spirit interfered with in reverse no matter what he thought.
"Using the concepts from Middle-earth," the Scarlet Witch pressed the brim of her hat: "Sauron can indeed influence the mortals who wear the ring, but can he control 'Smaug'?"
I see.
But isn't that dragon a girl?
No, wait, just like he is "Gandalf" and also "Magneto", but not all versions of "Magneto" are "Gandalf".
So, "Sherlock Holmes" is actually some version of "Smaug"? But he doesn't realize it himself?
This is what the Hogwarts motto "Don't wake the sleeping dragon" actually means?
"Tell Sherlock that he is not 'possessed' and just keep playing. I have other things to do, so let's do this first." The "Scarlet Witch" lowered the brim of her hat, and her whole body stood still like a doll, and stopped talking.
Although there were some other detailed questions, Gandalf, who was not in a hurry to get answers for the moment, bowed slightly to her, then turned and left the tower.
————
Time returns to the present.
Gandalf couldn't help but feel a little amused as he watched Sherlock thinking hard.
There is no doubt that the guy wearing a spiked eye patch and a clown mask is real, and will probably appear in the third game. It may be related, but it is definitely not Sherlock himself, and the sentence "Why are you so serious?"
"I didn't say it to him either.
If, as Sherlock conjectures, there is an evil consciousness that wants to invade his body, what is the purpose of proactively reminding him? Isn't it challenging enough?
Gandalf stroked his beard and began to think about how to convince him not to care about the dream and just go to the game.
"I..." Sherlock finally said after hesitating for a while: "I thought that in the final stage of the Triwizard Tournament, it would be the same as the qualifiers, with everyone participating independently and fighting each other to win the final spot..."
"...So?" Gandalf stopped stroking his beard.
"I have actually made a plan on how to defeat other students if I want to fight them," Sherlock scratched his hair: "The way they died in the dream all corresponded to the plan I made... Well,
The kind that doesn’t hold back.”
"hiss--!"
Gandalf accidentally pulled out several of his beards.
