Chapter 817: Salk Magical Injury Hospital

"So, that's again...... Outings for the new semester?"

Joe Annis patiently listened to the familiar explanations of the old and young in front of him, and looked at the growing group with a strange expression - is this the daily process of the top schools in the wizarding world?

He still remembers seeing the two in the rubble of the hospital a year ago.

As for getting lost or something......

Just because he's a "Muggle" doesn't mean he's a fool.

Joe Annis would not be naïve enough to believe that the men behind Salzburg, to put it mildly, would not even be able to do such a thing as discerning directions – not to mention that they are wizards with magical powers.

However, as a "Muggle" who accidentally broke into the wizarding world, Annis knew the importance of restraining curiosity.

"Salk Hospital?" he said, "Understood, this way." ”

Joe Annis led Elena and the others through the narrow alleyway, following the familiar route.

Unlike the ordinary Muggle doctor who didn't know anything about magic a year ago, after all this time, Joe Annis already knew from the people around him who he was saving in the first place, and ......

What kind of thief ship did he get on: the Dark Lord's exclusive doctor, a job that he couldn't quit.

What made Joe Annis even more desperate was that the city he grew up in had become a wizarding capital overnight - on the day he became the first Muggle employee of the Salk Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries, many of his familiar neighbors and shopkeepers took the time to come to the hospital to congratulate and thank him.

Joe Annis had a hard time describing the feeling of wanting to go to the bar and be quiet, only to see Uncle Kurt Mayer, who had grown up watching him, bring out a fine bottle of red wine and cheerfully say that he would celebrate his entry into the wizarding world.

This is simply outrageous......

But on the other hand, it's also a good thing.

After accepting the premise that magic exists in this world, Joe Annis took less than two days to completely adjust his mentality, and calmly accepted his new position, the intern therapist of [Salk Magical Injury Hospital], and is currently mainly learning and observing with the healers in the magical world.

And for Hermione Granger and others, Joe Annis, who looks sunny and cheerful, looks very trustworthy.

As for why the doctor knew about the wizarding world, it wasn't a big deal in their eyes.

The International Confederation of Wizards Secrecy Act hadn't left much in their minds for the time being, and it didn't seem incomprehensible that there were Muggle doctors in magical hospitals in such a magical city where wizards were running small shops everywhere.

On the other hand, they are really fed up with the torture of doing multiple-choice questions between two road idiots.

Even Luna's inspiration, when faced with two hopeless road idiots, finally lost the magic of the past.

"What's he, huh...... I thought—"

At the back of the crowd, Elena poked the old potato next to her and asked curiously.

Regarding the [Salk Magical Hospital for Injuries and Diseases], this was indeed her plan, but there was no young doctor Joe Annis in her original puzzle, she originally thought that Destiny was looking for a more famous doctor.

"Oh, this kid saved my life, so I gave him a chance to make a wish. ”

Grindelwald glanced at the young figure not far away and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Money, women, power, fame...... He rejected all of these things that most Muggles would choose, and he had only one wish - he wanted to go to a magical hospital to study and see how wizards treated the sick. ”

"That's right...... That's a very excessive, very troublesome wish. ”

Elena nodded thoughtfully, chuckling playfully.

"So that precious Muggle employee slot was just used by you to repay the favor?"

This is no better than the educational reform of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which is the most sensitive birth, old age, sickness and death everywhere.

When it comes to hospitals for magical injuries, the Ministry of Magic and the International Federation of Wizards are not as easy to compromise and fool as they used to be, whether it's the healer's prejudice against Muggle doctors or the danger of magical exposure...... The risks and factors involved are simply too complex.

Even such a place was won with the name of Paracelsus, the establishment of a new magical hospital in Salzburg, and the research and treatment of incurable diseases in the wizarding world.

"Repay the favor?" or so you can say it......

Grindelwald nodded slightly, grinned, looked at the little ball in front of him and said with a smile.

"What's the matter, is there any dissatisfaction with the world's cutest fairy queen?"

"No, I think it's a good fit - Joe is already in the magic hospital anyway, you pick, Your Highness the Dark Lord. ”

Elena glanced at Joe Annis's energetic stride, and Derpy swayed from side to side.

"Young intellectual curiosity is obviously more important than breadth of knowledge and academic authority, and traditional perceptions will eventually be completely subverted. The intersection of the magical world and the non-magical world will definitely happen, this is the trend of civilization development, even ten international wizarding federations can't stop it, this is not a prophecy, this is what is happening at the moment!"

The new era has only just begun, and she has plenty of time and patience to cultivate it little by little.

If there is no new Muggle doctor in the wizarding world, it means that the future that Elena is looking forward to is almost a complete failure, and naturally there is no need to think about any more far-reaching knowledge fusion.

"The Dark Lord? ”

Grindelwald shrugged his shoulders and grinned, "Besides, it's all too rare in this world to be able to save the Dark Lord from a difficult situation twice in a row, which in itself can be regarded as a very valuable talent. ”

"Perhaps, there's ...... It is you, not me, who will be saved. Don't take me with you. ”

Elena pursed her lips, and Derpy shook stubbornly, and retorted in a whisper.

At least in the city of Salzburg, she can proudly say that she is not a road idiot.

There is also a difference in physique between the demon king and the demon king, for example, she once dragged a severely unconscious old guy in an extremely hesitant situation to find the gate of the central hospital across most of the city.

"What are you two talking about? Keep up! ”

Hermione Granger looked back at the two road idiots who had been whispering at the end, and waved.

Since "Professor Otto Apocalis" had taken the wrong path several times in a row, the reliability of the once mysterious and majestic old wizard in the minds of several young witches had plummeted, and he had soon fallen to the level of "Elena in the Direction" - the kind of point where if you didn't keep an eye on it, you might have to post a missing person notice if you didn't keep an eye on it.

In the face of the cruel reality, Elena did not continue to die, and quickly trotted all the way to follow.

Immediately afterward, Grindelwald cheekily followed—although he was the most outstanding Phantom Migration Master of his time, today's mission was to take the children on a trip, and it would be too humiliating to go back and ask for help because he had lost someone.

......

As it turned out, the terrain of Salzburg was not so complicated.

With Joe Annis as their temporary guide, their journey to Salk Hospital was uneventful.

Jo Annis's path didn't look like anything special, but Elena noticed that some of the passages were clearly out of line with the usual urban planning, as if they were temporary fast-tracks—and when they had passed, there was a faint sound from the brick wall behind them, which reminded her of the wall behind the Leaky Cauldron Tavern.

By the time they arrived at the hospital, there were still nearly forty minutes before the outing ended.

The appearance of the hospital hall has not changed much from Elena's memory, the floors and walls that were once blown into ruins by her have long been restored to their original state under the power of magic, the only difference may be that there is an extra sign on the wall on the right side of the doorway.

And, of course, the patrolling security guards have all been replaced by SCP wizards in velvet suits.

Luna Lovegood looked up and whispered the contents of the sign on the wall.

"Center for Abnormal Human Diseases?"

"Well, it should be the abnormal [human disease] research center, it depends on your sentence. ”

Joe Annis shook his head with a smile and continued after a casual correction.

"Salzburg doesn't have a purely magical street like Diagon Alley, and it is clearly best to have a place in Salk's hospital, both from a hygienic point of view and from a discreet point of view. And apply for a new department in the hospital - even if the current ownership of Salk Hospital belongs to you wizards, you have to find a name that makes sense......"

The young doctor explained, following the signs and leading the group into a staircase compartment that went up.

"Okay, don't go any further. We're here. ”

He reached out to stop Hannah Abbott, who was still trying to run up the stairs, turned his head to look behind him, and when everyone had entered the corner compartment, he pointed to the fire hydrant on the opposite side of the staircase handrail.

"The entrance to the magical hospital is here, and beyond that is the non-magical office area used to cheat money and hide people's eyes......"

Joe Annis picked up his badge and touched it lightly on the fire hydrant, cleared his throat, pointed it at the red fire hydrant, and said clearly and word by word, "Joe Annis, the number of visitors in the group, five." ”

For a moment, Hermione Granger thought Joe was funny.

In such a beautiful modern hospital, speak towards a red fire hydrant.

Then she suddenly remembered the bronze eagle ring outside the door of the Ravenclaw common room, and Hermione stared at the iron lump with wide eyes, expecting it to "come to life" and speak—even though she had been studying at Hogwarts for a year, Hermione was still full of curiosity about these moving magic tools and magic portraits.

But with Joe Annis's voice, the hydrant didn't move except for flashing.

"Alright, approved," the young doctor turned and walked in the direction they came, "let's go." ”

"Eh, go, go...... Where to go?"

Hermione opened her mouth blankly, and Luna and Hannah standing beside her looked the same.

Then they watched as Joe Annis opened the door of the cubicle and walked straight out in the direction they had just entered—the two road idiots who had fallen behind did not hesitate and quickly followed.

"Come on, the address to which this door leads has changed. ”

Elena glanced at the silly wings behind her, and couldn't help but reach out and flick her finger affectionately on Hermione's head.

She reached out and grinned as she grabbed Hermione's arm and walked briskly towards the door, where the two of them stepped forward and pushed the door open, Hermione felt as if she had walked through a layer of cool water, but walked out of the opposite side warmly and dryly.

Gone was the empty, clean hall and replaced by an arcade paved with bluestone tiles.

On either side of the arcade are four doorrings made of vines, and a thin green flame curtain wall connects the area between the knockers and the floor, which looks like a soapy film that will break with a gentle blow, and every now and then one or two witches and wizards rush out of the knockers, screaming for help.

Some of them look normal, at least not outwardly;

Others have terrible deformities, such as elephant trunks or feathers all over their bodies, or they are covered with all sorts of unspeakable things that emit a foul smell, or something worse......

The arcade was very noisy, and many patients were making strange noises, even noisier than the 9th station.

In the crowd, several witches and wizards dressed in green and white wizard robes shuttled between the waiters, patiently asking about specific situations and taking notes on their clipboards.

Hermione noticed that most of the green-robed wizards had a badge embroidered on their chests: a wand and a cross made of bones.

"They're the doctors of the wizarding world...... Hmm, I mean therapists?"

Hermione asked Hannah in a whisper.

"Some are," Hannah said uncertainly, frowning, "those in green robes are healers, but I've never seen a ...... in white wizard robes at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries before"

"Magical Apothecary, this is the emerging healing refinement branch of the wizarding world. ”

"Magic...... Pharmacist?"

Glancing at Hermione, who was still a little confused, Elena briefly explained a few more words.

"To be precise, they are more responsible for the preparation of directional potions, as well as the planning and arrangement of dosages and usage methods for various injuries and illnesses - I just got my pharmacist and healer license. ”

"How is it possible, you haven't graduated yet......" Hannah Abbott turned into an O-shape in surprise.

As a young witch who aspires to be admitted to St. Mungo's Hospital as a "green angel" after graduation, she knows very well the difficulty of the therapist assessment - in addition to basic treatment skills, she also needs a letter of guarantee from a regular hospital.

If the former can still rely on personal efforts, then the later work experience and unit recommendation are too difficult.

"Well, that ......"

Elena touched Derpy's fur a little embarrassed, and nodded at Grindelwald not far away.

"I forgot to introduce it just now, this hospital was bought by Professor Apocaris, and as a result of being adopted by the professor, I only need to show my normal ability to heal the magic text, and the professor will help me get the rest done-"

"Well, if I want to...... Alas, forget it, my mom and dad are still very good to me. ”

Hannah Abbott looked at Elena enviously and sighed wryly.

Coming from a pure-blood family, Hannah is well aware of the convenience of this kind of family power, which is like she doesn't need to participate in any Ministry of Magic assessment to have the qualification to run a catering store through the relationship of affiliation with the Broken Cauldron Tavern.

And this special "welfare" seems to have no other way than marriage.

This is an unspoken rule in the wizarding world for a long time, and it is also part of the capital of the consolidation and marriage of various magical families.

Elena glanced at the lowered little iron girl, subconsciously licked the corners of her mouth lightly, and said softly.

"Actually, it's not possible, as long as you-"

"Hey, Elena, kids don't be in a daze, this way!"

Grindelwald shouted loudly in the noisy crowd and beckoned to them.

"There's not much time left, let's hurry up and finish poor Quirinus and go back to Hogwarts, come here!"

Elena: (?*'?′*)??
