Chapter 1400 Ron and the Trust
"Well, then there are only two things we need to do until Mr. McLean comes over."
After Neville's lion patron saint left, the therapist, Mr. Dewente, immediately continued:
"First, try to study the nature of the plague curse according to the patient's symptoms as much as possible, and leave this to me temporarily; and the second thing is to find out the source of the curse magic. About this...Mr. Longbottom , do you have any clues over there?"
"Well," Neville thought for a while, and then said, "Perhaps you have already noticed that we have been attacked by unknown dark wizards several times before. That's why we were a little nervous and kept on guard... ...and Tucker, it was only after he was injured in the attack that he began to become like this..."
Deventer couldn't help but nodded when he heard that.
"How did he get hurt?"
"Uh, the abdomen was cut by a cutting curse. To be honest, although the scene at that time was scary, you know, it's actually not a very troublesome injury."
Neville was already very good at herbal medicine. Although he was not very talented in potion science, ordinary injuries still couldn't trouble him. To be honest, if you put aside his Patronus Charm of sudden success, it is not impossible for him to become a therapist after graduation.
In fact, after the attack on the church, he healed many injured Aurors!
"Well, just a cutting spell? Are you sure?"
"This..." Neville hesitated, but finally shook his head, "No, strictly speaking, I'm actually not sure."
"This is going to be difficult!"
After hearing this, Derwent couldn't help staring at the wounded area and fell into deep thought again.
Seeing this, Tonks and the others also knew that staying here would not be of much use, so they couldn't help but say:
"Neville, what about those Dark wizard raiders back then? Didn't you catch one or two?"
"No, it can't be done," Neville shook his head and said, "Those dark wizards are very powerful. Although I managed to suppress some of the enemies with the convenience of the patron saint, the three confrontations before and after did not have any success." What an advantage."
Before the words fell, an Auror who was sitting on the prayer chair behind couldn't help but said:
"Longbottom,
You are good enough, we are holding you back. "
"Orton, you can't say that," Neville said hastily, "Without you, they would have killed the Muggle Queen a long time ago. How can they survive until the moment when the Queen is safely sent away?"
He was talking, but Ron's expression changed, and he suddenly interrupted:
"Wait, you said the Muggle Queen...she has also been infected with this plague curse?"
Ron's words immediately shocked almost everyone, including Deventer who was still thinking deeply, yes! Since this thing is contagious, what about the Muggle Queen?
"Mr. Dewente, I think I need to ask you a question," Tonks immediately turned his head and said, "If there are no symptoms on the surface, that is, during the incubation period, will this curse be contagious?"
"No, although there is no way to be sure at the moment, I don't think it can," Devonte said without hesitation, "However, Mr. Longbottom, when the Muggle Queen left, this Mr. Tucker's abdominal wound had already begun to fester. Yet?"
"this"
Obviously, this question for Deventer is really not easy to answer.
Because at that time, Tucker was already in a bad state, but it was not enough to attract attention. In addition, the white fresh essence made his abdominal cut recover very well, maybe even he himself did not doubt it. what.
And the more important thing is...
"Sir, I remember that when Tucker said he was having a hard time in his stomach, he couldn't see anything on his stomach. So I think it's very likely that the rot started from the internal organs."
Derwent knew what Neville meant as soon as he heard it. Indeed, if the festering started from the inside, it would become very difficult to accurately judge when it started.
In particular, in order to ensure that the injured would not continue to deteriorate to the point of being unmanageable, Neville in the middle used white fresh essence to hang him several times.
But at this moment, Tonks waved his hand and said:
"I asked whether the incubation period would be contagious. I didn't want to confirm whether the queen was actually infected. I was thinking, if I hurry to bring the queen back now...is it too late?"
The scariest thing about plague is the spread of infection.
At this time, before treating her as a queen, perhaps it would be more correct to regard her as a hidden source of infection.
After all, if it spreads out from her, the situation on the Muggle side will undoubtedly become very bad.
The others soon realized that her worries were indeed justified, and Deventer immediately said:
"It's too late, it should be too late...Although due to physiological differences, I'm not sure how this plague curse will behave on Muggles. But as long as she hasn't had an attack, it should be too late!"
"Jones, Neville, let's go and bring the queen back!" Tonks said decisively after hearing Deventer's judgment, "We're just doing it ourselves, and we must not let this plague spread."
"Then... what about me?" Ron whispered beside him.
"You stay here!" Tonks said without hesitation, "After we leave, this place may be very dangerous. The dark wizard who came to attack the previous three times may appear at any time. You are sent by Maca to help, I believe you His strength must be very strong...Help hold this place until Maca comes over!"
Hearing that Tonks seemed to have misunderstood him so much, Ron couldn't help being startled.
Yes, there never seemed to be any weak people around Maca, and Tonks didn't know much about Ron. Therefore, she took it for granted that since it was Maka who stuffed it with her own hands, her strength should be very good.
Look at Neville! One man is worth an entire team of Aurors, what an amazing Patronus Charm!
"Oh, this"
Ron felt sorry, but it seemed like the first time he had been trusted so much. In this case, it seems to be a very difficult thing to confess to the other party that you are a "waste".
"Neville?"
He didn't say it directly, but he couldn't help but look towards Neville, but the other party gave him an encouraging look inexplicably.
Of course, Tonks definitely didn't know what Ron was thinking. The situation is urgent now, because no one knows what happened to the Muggle Queen, so she decided to leave immediately.
"Okay, then...Mr. Dewent, and Ron, I will leave this place to you!"
