Chapter 213 The Past Is the Past, the Present Is the Present

It seemed that only the two of them knew what was going on, and it sounded more like a flirting conversation to outsiders. The surprise in Mrs. Weasley and Mr. Weasley's eyes became more and more intense.

"Vera, can I call you that?"

Mrs. Weasley's voice trembled, tears welled up in her eyes, but her face was full of a relieved smile, and she stepped forward and held Silk's hand.

Silk was a little overwhelmed by her enthusiasm, but she also knew that this was an elder with whom Sherlock had a good relationship.

"Okay, Weasley..."

"No, just call me Aunt Weasley!"

Mrs. Weasley enthusiastically pulled Silk into the tent to chat about family matters. Mr. Weasley was outside and didn't have the mood to figure out how to use the lighter, so he quietly asked about Silk's information.

"What does she do?"

"She used to be a silent person in the Department of Mysteries of the German Ministry of Magic, and then she resigned and came to the UK. Now she has found a new job."

Sherlock said helplessly. He really wanted to correct Mr. Weasley's thoughts, but he didn't know where to start.

He really didn't have that intention towards Silk.

Maybe before he went back to the past, he had some different feelings when she hugged him in his office, but after meeting Amy in the past and knowing that Amy was Silk, he now felt very complicated and awkward about her.

But generally speaking, he still had more of an elder mentality. He and Eddie were close friends, and getting along with Amy was more like a family, like an uncle and a niece.

Although Silk was actually one year older than him after returning to normal time, Sherlock had always adjusted his mentality and had no other intentions.

Otherwise, if he attacked his friend's daughter, it would be considered that he had watched her grow up, which made Sherlock unable to get over the hurdle in his heart.

He always felt that he was a complete pervert.

Mr. Weasley could not understand Sherlock's complicated feelings, and just said with emotion.

"It's not common for ordinary people to be a silent person. This girl is very talented, but..." He hesitated when he said this, but finally couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with her eyes?"

Sherlock explained seriously.

"He's not blind, he just had some accidents, and he'll be able to get back to normal later."

After hearing him say this, Mr. Weasley nodded in relief, but he continued to ask.

"When did you meet? Why haven't I heard you talk about it before?"

"Last year, when Hogwarts just started."

While Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were asking Sherlock and Silk about the matter, Harry and the others were startled by the noise outside and walked out of their tents.

The Weasley brothers and sisters, plus Harry and Hermione, stood by the tent, watching the scene from afar.

"Sherlock's girlfriend is so beautiful." Charlie, the second child of the Weasley family, exclaimed.

He is a tall wizard who was the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team before graduation. Sherlock didn't teach him, but the two knew each other when they were in school.

The others also nodded in agreement. They had never seen a girl prettier than Silk.

"But why is her eyes covered? Doesn't it affect her walking?" Ginny, the youngest, who will be in the third grade at the start of school, asked in confusion.

Harry, who knew some inside information, guessed.

"This may be a special magic. Blindfolding has no effect on Sister Silk."

"Hey, I know you are very concerned about Professor Forrest's gossip." George covered his stomach with a frown, and there was a "gurgling" sound from there. "But looking at the way my parents are now, what should we do for lunch?"

Bill, as the eldest, said with a smile.

"Let's not disturb them for now. I have brought a lot of snacks here. Sharing them should solve the problem of lunch."

Harry and the others cheered and went to find snacks with Bill impatiently.

Mr. Weasley and Sherlock chatted until three o'clock in the afternoon before they came back to their senses. At this time, Mrs. Weasley also let Silk out of the tent reluctantly.

Several children barely solved their lunch with snacks. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley simply started to prepare dinner. It is estimated that by the time they are done, it will be dark.

At this time, Sherlock and the others had time to set up their own tents.

It is actually quite simple to set up a magic tent, just like a normal tent, but the traceless extension spell makes the space inside much larger than it looks from the outside.

"What did Mrs. Weasley say to you?" Sherlock asked Silk about what happened just now.

Silk shook her head with an inexplicable smile on her face.

"Nothing to talk about, just told me some things about your past."

Sherlock looked empty-eyed, fearing that his majestic image in her heart would collapse, and coughed lightly.

"The past is the past, and the present is the present. People always change, so they can't be confused."

For some reason, after hearing his words, Silk's face bloomed with an extremely bright smile, which made Sherlock lose his mind for a moment.

She said seriously.

"You are right, the past is the past, and the present is the present."

......

Sherlock and his family had dinner with the Weasley family.

Before dinner, Mr. Weasley met many acquaintances from the Ministry of Magic. Now standing in front of them were the two directors of the Ministry of Magic.

Director of the Department of Magical Sports and Magic - Ludo Balmain, Director of the Department of International Magical Cooperation - Barty Crouch.

Mr. Weasley wanted to pull Sherlock to introduce him to these officials of the Ministry of Magic at first, but Sherlock was obviously not very interested in these people. He found an excuse to watch Silk to prevent her from accidentally blowing up the only pot that could be used tonight when she was pulled up by Mrs. Weasley to help.

Although they did not meet in this incident, Sherlock naturally knew Barty Crouch.

Eddie's former boss, the director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement seventeen years ago.

Originally, he had a good chance of becoming the Minister of Magic, but because his son Barty Jr. was exposed as a Death Eater, even if he arrested his son himself, it was useless. In the end, he did not compete with Fudge, and was "exiled" to the Department of International Magical Cooperation in a seemingly flat manner.

Barty Crouch is a very capable person, but he is not very lucky.

Balmain was an approachable official. He didn't even mind letting the Weasley twins and Harry participate in the betting on the final.

George and Fred had already made it clear who they would bet on and put all their fortunes on it.

Hermione and Ron had originally not planned to participate until Harry suddenly had an idea and said with excited blinking eyes.

"Why don't we ask the amazing Professor Forrest?"
