Chapter 770: Visiting the Sick
Hogwarts Hospital, "Harry Potter and Ron Weasley are inside, you should be careful to come out early so as not to affect their recovery." Madam Pomfrey looked displeased, and admonished with a straight face.
Alan led Emily into the hospital room, where the curtains had been drawn and the room was a little dim, and the Gryffindor team members were huddled in the room, bringing a lot of cakes, candy, and a few bottles of pumpkin porridge. Near the window, two figures were huddled close together.
"Oh, you're here, and I think you can understand why Madam Pomfrey said that. Hermione squeezed out of the Gryffindor crowd and mouthed Nunu behind her, noticing this, lying on the hospital bed Harry greeted Alan warmly, and Ginny jumped out of his hospital bed to help Hermione put the gifts they had brought with her, Duke Honey's candy bag and flowers, on Harry's bedside.
Then the sound of humming and chirping came, and everyone found that Lavender, who was sitting next to Ron, was unscrupulously hugging Ron's arm tightly, and after finding that Alan and Hermione were coming, he suddenly deliberately grabbed Ron's neck, kissed Ron's lips, and then sat up straight next to Ron, who was stunned, sweetly - At the beginning of the Hogwarts Express, Lavender heard with his own ears that Ron liked Hermione, and she had been looking for an opportunity to declare her sovereignty more, and her status as Gryffindor made Lavender finally decide to take the opportunity to act first and then think about it.
Hermione reluctantly brushed her fluffy hair with her hands, and then held her forehead and felt a little sore in her head.
Madam Pomfrey walked in with two large bottles, "Drink it and you'll be fine soon." Miss Brown, you seem to have made Mr. Ron Weasley a little more injured, but he will be healed by tomorrow at the latest. As for Harry Potter...... "Miss Pomfrey glanced at Ginny, who was looking concerned on the side, "Miss Ginny Weasley, if you notice any discomfort in him, you can always come to me for his treatment." β
Ginny's face was the same as when she first met Harry before she entered school, she gasped and her face turned red, and she ducked behind Hermione.
Harry pulled the quilt on his body in embarrassment, and when he was ejected and hit the grass, the spot where Pansy had been injured on the Hogwarts Express was hurt again, and he still felt a faint pain.
Madam Pomfrey left, smacking her lips and complaining that the sport was too dangerous and that the professors were too incompetent to anticipate the use of the Shock Absorbing Charm to protect their students.
"Gryffindor's Quidditch team has had a rough run for the past semester, Harry, your team is under a curse. Lavender Brown, who let Ron go, follow Madam Pomfrey's words and change the subject with Quidditch, "Ron didn't hesitate to use his body to block the Bludger to avoid you getting hurt, he was so brave, but Harry, you failed to catch the Golden Snitch, you failed him." β
"Lavender, the batsman's main task is to protect his team from Bludgers with the help of bats, how many hits has Harry been hit before?!" Ginny raised a frown and turned to argue with Lavender, but Emily, who walked to Harry's hospital bed, caught their attention.
"Harry, I wish you a speedy recovery. Emily hand-gave Harry a set of Quidditch armor she was holding in her arms, her voice was very sweet, just like her smile, "Your flying skills are very good, but this time I am lucky, the sudden weather has a great impact on you wearing glasses, and the place where the Golden Snitch flies into is very narrow, compared to me, I have more advantages, otherwise it is difficult to say who will catch the Golden Snitch in the end." β
After receiving the gift from Emily, seeing the little witch's gentle and polite appearance, Harry couldn't help but want to ask if the other party had committed a foul spell in the game, and choked in his throat, unable to speak, in Emily's innocent expression, Harry himself felt a sense of guilt, thinking that he might have blamed Emily for being a curse cast on him by other insidious little snakes, and the other party actually didn't know anything.
Harry scratched his head in annoyance, "Gryffindor's luck is indeed a little worse. Katie is still lying in St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries, not knowing what is going on now. β
Notice that Emily's expression on Hermione had become a little fierce, which made her look a little like Professor McGonagall, but in the end she just moved her lips and said nothing.
"You can't go on your own, how about I take you to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries tomorrow to visit Katie?" Allen's promise drew cheers from the Gryffindor lions, and then Allen's voice sounded in Hermione's heart, "I'll see if I can cure Katie then, and this will be considered compensation for Emily's work for Gryffindor." β
The cheers made Madam Pomfrey come back and open the curtain, and chased them away in annoyance: "Get out, get out, this is the school hospital, you need to be quiet, the patients need to rest." β
The next afternoon, the Bentley 8-litre was parked in front of an old-fashioned red-brick department store, and the Gryffindor, who had come to visit Katie at St. Mungo's Hospital for Injuries and Magic, got out of the door, and the little lions suppressed their excitement about their first ride in the wizard's car, and began to look curiously at the wide streets, deserted and dilapidated shopsβmost of whom were actually visiting St. Mungo's Hospital for the first time.
"Over here, follow me. Because of Umbrella Gate's donation and partnership with St. Mungo's Hospital, Hermione took the Gryffindor Quidditch team members and their "families" into the crowded waiting room.
"Hey, that's Dalyse Devonte, who used to be the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and it turns out that she was also a healer at St. Mungo. After a few days of development, Lavender Brown had forgotten even the shyness she had before, and she took Ron's arm and let herself whisper to Ron, "Rollo, this is my first time here." β
The two of them began to rise again as if no one was around.
"Merlin, it's like a ghoul gnawing someone's face, and I think he needs to improve his skills, both in this and Quidditch. Ginny said calmly to Harry, "But Ron didn't like us before, and he's a lot more than us now. β
"Miss Brown's history of magic isn't good?" Alan raised his eyebrows and whispered to Harry beside him, he actually regretted that he had been a little conservative with Hermione's actions when he was three broomsticks, he looked at a large portrait of a witch with long silver hair hanging on the wall, and Dalyse on the wall was carefully looking at Alan and the others, as if counting the number of people, and then walked out of the picture frame from the side and disappeared.
"Katie should be in the Spell Damage Section on the fifth floor. After Hermione finished speaking, she walked over to Mr. Skillful next to the sign and asked a few words, then confidently turned back, "Yes, in the Spell Damage Section on the fifth floor." β
They walked through double doors and through a rickety staircase, and on the walls hung portraits of hideous-looking healers who, as they climbed the stairs, yelled at them, diagnosed strange ailments, and came up with all sorts of terrible cures. There was a medieval wizard who thought Ron had a serious pox, which made Ron angry enough.
"Hi ~ Katie. After confirming Katie's hospital room through the small window of the glass door of the Spell Damage Section, Alan pushed the door open, and the Gryffindors swarmed in, greeting warmly.
Katie, who was lying on the bed, turned her head with some difficulty when she heard the sound, she was weak and couldn't regain her complete body, and the power of the curse still made her body occasionally twitch involuntarily from time to time, but seeing this group of familiar faces, Katie wanted to support her body and sit up with a surprised face, "How can you leave the school? Thank you for bringing them, Professor Harris. β
"I'm your classmate, too, aren't I. Alan shrugged and placed the gifts he had brought with him at the foot of Katie's bed, the ward was not cramped, but in the end there were so many of them that they could only be stacked in the corner, which gave everyone a sense of the Christmas atmosphere in advance.
"Want to sit up, don't you?" asked Ginny to her female teammate in front of the bed, Katie nodded repeatedly, and Harry quickly lifted the end of her hospital bed so that Katie's upper body was raised so that she could see the classmates who came in.
Katie, pale, took the flowers from Lavender and sniffed them lightly, then her head suddenly tilted back, and Katie waved her hand again when everyone thought that her curse was about to call the healer again.
Katie stretched out her arms and shook the bouquet out of the window next to the bed, and a bee hiding in the bouquet flew away.
"I can't believe anyone would have suspected you of doing it on purpose. Li An helped her friend bring back the flowers and hands, and used one hand to help her put a pillow on her back.
"Don't worry about the Aurors, they will never suspect such a kind-hearted girl like you again. Alan observed Katie's complexion and the magic around her, her curse had been effectively contained, but judging from the current treatment methods of the therapists at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries, as Dumbledore speculated, it would take at least three months for her to be safely unspelled and fully recovered, Alan reassured, "It doesn't taste good to be hospitalized for a long time, take a good rest, I remember that you have good grades, read more books and TV, and the time will pass soon." β
"Thank you, Professor Harris, it's hard to lie in a hospital bed, but luckily there are TVs in the hospital rooms now. β
Ginny retrieved the bouquet from Leanne and helped her place it in the vase on the table.
Katie's face twitched uncontrollably suddenly, and her voice was full of frustration and sadness, "I'm sorry, I watched our live broadcast against Slytherin yesterday, and it's all my fault, it's all my fault, if I hadn't touched that necklace... The Slytherin batsmen will have to focus on the three of us... Ah, I'm sorry, I'm not blaming you Dean, if you haven't been in training, you're willing to help us out. β
"You can't be blamed for this, Katie, only Pan... Well, I mean it's only you and Cheryl who put the curse on you. Harry hurriedly comforted.
"But seriously, Katie, you need to get better, or Seamus will kill me and Harry sooner or later with just his eyes. The expression on Dean's face was completely unimpressed, and he showed Katie a mouthful of large white teeth that contrasted with his dark complexion
Harry was reluctant to let Dean compete, not only because he wasn't trained himself, but also because he knew that his other roommate, Seamus, would be upset. However, Harry felt he had to put the team's interests first, and Dean flew faster than Seamus in the tryouts - of course, Harry chose to ignore some of his own careful thinking about Ron's affairs.
"I didn't think about hurting Dumbledore, why did I get into something like this and affect the team. Tears welled up in Katie's eyes.
"We all believe that you are innocent, after all, you are so kind, how could you use the Cursed Necklace to hurt Dumbledore. Harry pushed his glasses, once again convincing his injured teammate.
When the Gryffindors were talking around Katie, Alan put a box of gifts that was about to fall from the foot of the bed to the middle of the bedside table, and took the initiative to step aside to leave enough space for the little lions, this scene was seen by Hermione, she also quietly walked to Alan's side, approached Alan, pointed to Katie who was greeting Harry, and asked in a low voice, "Alan, how is Katie's situation, can you untie it?"
Alan suddenly lowered his head and rolled his eyes, learning from Lavender Brown to Ron just now, he took Hermione's arm to keep his mouth close to Hermione's ear, whispered to Hermione, and then Hermione nodded and prankfully blew hot and moist air into Hermione's ear, which made Hermione look a little like Ginny when she was blushing.
