Chapter 490: Busy After the War

In the Hogwarts cafeteria, the melon-eating crowd watched with great interest the family soap opera being staged in front of them.

Although Zhang Xu quietly put a soundproof magic, the movements and expressions of the two of them made everyone see clearly, and they were regarded as pantomimes.

The onlookers knew that the bickering between the two of them was still in the stage of "bedside quarrel", and as long as they didn't move their wands, it didn't matter, so everyone was happy to watch the play on the sidelines.

However, just as lunch was about to begin, an unexpected surprise interrupted the two of them.

Just as Scarlet grabbed Zhang Xu by the collar and pulled Zhang Xu's face in front of him, glaring at him viciously and was about to say cruel words, Peeves, the captain of the Hogwarts Pressing Squad, suddenly fell into the sky.

Peeves pressed Zhang's head forward hard, and retired with a happy laugh amid the exclamations and heckles of the onlookers.

This sudden scene brought the onlookers to the conversation at today's lunch table, and the two parties were so embarrassed that they only ate and did not speak. After all, with the identities of the two of them, it is still a little inappropriate to play like this in front of the audience. If it weren't for Peeves' shield in front of him, the headmaster would have taken the two of them away and disciplined them.

As for His Excellency the Headmaster, after a sigh, he ignored them and made it through the last year.

Anyway, Hogwarts doesn't have a very strict grasp of the relationship between men and women, and they tend to turn a blind eye, as long as the woman doesn't give birth and the man doesn't die.

Not long after lunchtime, news came from Hogsmeade that the Death Eaters had suddenly retreated.

Dividing line

On the streets of Hogsmeade, where a great war had just ended, the north wind blew away the mud and dust from the explosion and collapse of the hill next to the village, and the faces of the passers-by who hurried away had faint smiles on their faces.

In the streets, from time to time, people carrying stretchers to transport the wounded walked by, which brought a touch of sadness to the smiling faces of those who were happy to have driven away the Death Eaters.

Several houses requisitioned and converted into makeshift medical facilities around the Pig's Head Bar, the temporary headquarters of the Ministry of Magic's government-in-exile, are now overcrowded, with many seriously wounded Aurors and government soldiers being brought here for treatment on stretchers.

Now Hogsmeade is facing a shortage of medical staff and medicines.

Although many doctors from St. Mungo's Hospital for the Wounded and Wounded followed the Ministry of Magic to Hogsmeade in exile, they were understaffed in the face of the large number of wounded. The same is true for medicines, the Ministry of Magic has no way to move the medicine warehouse at St. Mungo's Hospital, and now the limited medicine can only be used on the seriously wounded.

Those who had only minor injuries had to sit in the chairs prepared on the side of the road and either wait for the doctor to treat the seriously injured before dealing with their injuries, or find potions to take care of their wounds themselves.

On the side of the road, a pale, trembling Kevin sat in a chair with his left leg resting on another.

There was a palm-long wound on his left thigh, although this wound was not deep, but the blackened muscles on both sides of the wound, the black blood oozing out and the foul smell emitted all showed the seriousness of the wound, not to mention that as long as it was touched gently, the wound would make people feel a sharp pain that pierced the heart.

However, Kevin, who was injured in this way, can only be regarded as a minor injured person now, and is not even qualified to enter the medical point for treatment, so he can only wait for treatment or let non-professionals deal with it.

"Bell, Simon, you guys hold Kevin down, don't let him move." Zhang Xu said to Bel Grylls with a pair of cold surgical scissors.

Just now, Zhang Xu and the others had injected Kevin with an injection of anesthetic, but they still couldn't relieve the pain caused by the wound caused by magic. Passing out (chemical) didn't work, and then they tried Fainting (magic) and Passing Out (physics), but Kevin woke up in pain every time he touched the wound.

In desperation, Zhang Xu and the others could only use the most primitive method to tie Kevin to the chair and press it well, so as not to struggle for him.

Zhang Xu used scalpel scissors to cut off Kevin's pants around the wound, because his pants were stuck by the blood scabs around the wound, and he couldn't move on to the next step if he didn't deal with it.

Because Zhang's hands were a little raw, when he finished cutting his pants, Kevin, who was biting his beret, was already blue and sweaty.

Then he poured another bottle of hydrogen peroxide on the wound, and black foam suddenly came out of the wound, and even a trace of black smoke came out after the foam burst.

By the time the wound was cleaned and the scabbed of his pants had been removed, Kevin was already a little prostration, and even Bell and Simon, who were holding him, were sweating profusely.

After the wound cleaning work in the early stage was completed, Zhang Xu picked up a ceramic bottle and handed it to Bel Grylls, saying, "Wait a minute, you should give Kevin medicine, there may be some pain during the period, I will hold him instead." ”

"How much do you want to put it?" Bell asked, taking the vial.

"Just make the wound look like a normal wound?" After Zhang Xu finished speaking, he turned into a giant panda, and then pressed Kevin with his huge paws.

It turned out that Zhang Xu's response was correct, as the milky white potion in the bottle turned black immediately after pouring on the wound, Kevin also wanted to jump up from the chair in pain, but was choked by Zhang Giant Panda.

The effect of the potion brought by Zhang Xu was good, and in the end, Kevin no longer felt the pain from the wound just now.

Next, Zhang Giant Panda turned back into Zhang Xu and helped Bell to give Kevin a wound healing and bandage.

Such a scene was going on at the same time among the lightly injured people on the side of the road, and the sounds of various ghosts crying and howling wolves came and went.

Just now, Zhang Xu took the Harley trio, Ginny and Neville to Hogsmeade, and then Zhang Xu himself went to the pig's head bar to find the Minister of Magic, Scrimgeur, and donated a batch of drugs to the British Ministry of Magic on behalf of the country.

After receiving this batch of medicines, Scrimgeour and Zhang Xu exchanged their gratitude for AIA's assistance for a while, and then began to distribute medicines to various medical points with Zhang Xu's help.

And Harley and the others, who followed Zhang Xu, became drug porters after Zhang Xu piled almost half a container of drugs on the ground from a special treasure bag.

"I think Zhang was going to bring us here at the beginning, just to let us run errands and help carry things." Ron whispered to Neville, who was carrying the medicine with him to various medical sites.

"That's for sure." Neville nodded, "Believe it or not, he has other work for us to do after we move this." ”

"Faith." Ron said categorically.

Sure enough, after distributing the medicines, Zhang Xu sent them to help take care of the wounded. At this time, he also saw Kevin and Bell waiting for treatment outside the medical point, so he went over to help.

Just after helping Kevin bandage it, Zhang Xu, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, heard the sound of horses' hooves not far away.
