Chapter 500 Cup
The morning at St. Mungo's passed quickly. After Mr. Weasley changed the bandages once, the bed was moved to the animal bite specialist ward called Day Llewellyn.
Something to note is that the name of this ward is Dai Llewellyn, not the name of the main healer.
Mr. Weasley's primary therapist was Hippodrome Smethyk, and his trainee therapist was Augustus Pye. Dai Llewellyn was a very famous Quidditch player who was eaten by a chimera.
This...maybe for commemoration, or maybe as a warning.
In addition to Mr. Weasley, there are two patients in this public ward, one male and one female.
The witch's wounds exuded a disgusting smell, and she refused to tell whether she had been bitten by something. Mr. Weasley speculated that she had some illegal creature.
Another wizard stared at the ceiling, lying motionless on the hospital bed. He was bitten by a werewolf.
The energetic Mr. Weasley comforted the unfortunate wizard by saying "I have a friend", but he told Mr. Weasley to shut up or he would give Mr. Weasley a bite.
Usually this kind of opening is dismissed as a friend out of nowhere, although Mr. Weasley does have a werewolf friend named Remus Lupin.
Mr. Weasley had to take a blood-replenishing potion every hour because Nagini's venom prevented the wound from healing. If he doesn't replenish his blood, Mr. Weasley will turn into a human before long.
After Mr. Weasley took the blood-replenishing potion for the fifth time, Mrs. Weasley took everyone to visit him, including Moody and Tonks.
In the corridor outside the ward, Ada made some inquiring about the Ministry of Magic. It seemed that the Ministry had not discovered that three employees were "missing" for the time being.
I don't know if it's because the Ministry of Magic's work efficiency is slow, or if Fudge once again chose to cover the lid.
Just like today's "Daily Prophet", a Ministry of Magic official was bitten by a large snake of unknown origin in the ministry and was in critical condition. As a result, today's newspaper was still full of singing and dancing, and only paid attention to the attack on Mr. Weasley. Not a word was mentioned.
Ada felt that she might have overestimated Fudge's IQ and courage, and that she should be more conspicuous and more intense. What makes Ada funny is that she actually puts her hope in Umbridge and is looking forward to Umbridge's performance after knowing this.
After the children had exited the ward, Moody and Tonks entered the room to visit Mr. Weasley. The children in the corridor wanted to know what the adults were talking about, so the twins took out their retractable ears and staged an eavesdropping scene at St. Mungo's.
Ada did not participate. She knew exactly what Mr. Weasley, Moody and Tonks were going to talk about. It's nothing more than talking about the big snake that appeared in the Ministry of Magic, the prophecy ball, or Harry's ability to sense Voldemort's thoughts.
The content of their chat was just as Ada thought. On the way back to No. 12 Grimmauld Place, Harry was depressed and his eyebrows were about to grow to one place.
The Weasley children were the opposite of Harry. Seeing that their father was fine, they all had smiles on their faces. The twins started teasing Ron again, and Ginny was curious about Muggle things in the tube station.
Returning to the dark and gloomy Blake old house, Ada immediately ran upstairs to catch up on her sleep. After a long night of hard work, she was very tired, her mind was muddy, and her ability to think had declined.
Ada needs to relieve her fatigue before thinking about where she should go from here. There is no turning back. Now that she has decided to break away from Dumbledore, she must find her own way as a solo practitioner.
This sleep lasted until late at night. If she hadn't been hungry, Ada would have been able to sleep until tomorrow morning.
Ada got up in the dark without disturbing the sleeping Ginny, and walked to the underground kitchen alone. Mrs. Weasley had set aside some food for two, and it seemed that no one except Ada had eaten dinner.
Lighting a candle, with the faint light of the flame, Ada wiped out her own share. With replenished sleep and food in her stomach, her restless brain began to work at high speed again.
Just as Ada was thinking, the door to the underground kitchen was opened again, and Fred and George appeared at the door quietly.
"You two..."
"I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to find something to drink," Fred said. He walked straight to a cabinet, opened the door, hesitated for a while, and then took out three bottles of butterbeer.
George sat across from Ada, and he saw the tiredness that had not completely faded from Ada's face. He asked, "Ada, what on earth is Dad doing at the Ministry? We won't tell anyone."
Fred sat next to George and pushed an open bottle of Butterbeer in front of Ada.
After taking a sip, it still had that familiar sweetness. Ada said softly: "Mr. Weasley is guarding something, something that Tom Riddle has not fully obtained before."
"Weapon?" Fred asked, "Is it the kind that can kill Dumbledore at once? Don't Muggles have some kind of cannon? That's what they say..."
Ada shook her head and said, "Some things are far more powerful than weapons."
Although the twins are very good at doing business, when it comes to magic and fighting, they are still far behind.
The twins shook their heads together, no longer thinking about what their father was guarding. Since Ada refused to tell them directly, the two brothers knew that it was not appropriate to tell them such things, at least not now.
Fred added: "We eavesdropped on the conversation in the ward today, and what Moody meant was that Harry can see through Tom's snake eyes. What does this mean?"
"Does this mean Harry will no longer be safe?" George then asked, "What are Dumbledore's worries about?"
Ada picked up the bottle. She didn't know whether she should say anything. After thinking for a long time, she said: "You have never asked about this matter, and I have never answered it."
“We just snuck in a little butterbeer,” the twins said, “and reminisced about our youth.”
Ada pushed the candlestick between her and the twins, waved three cups and flew them over, placing them side by side. Then, Ada poured some beer into the left and right glasses respectively, leaving the middle glass empty.
Picking up the cup on her left, Ada pointed upstairs, and the twins nodded. Putting the cup back to the left and picking up the cup on the right, Ada pointed outside the house, but the twins nodded.
This time Ada did not put down the glass on her right, but poured a little of the butterbeer into the glass on her left. As she poured, she gestured with four numbers with her free hand, 1981.
Fred and George looked at each other and thought for a moment before nodding.
In 1981, when Voldemort attacked the Potter family, Voldemort, who was rebounded by the Death Curse, accidentally left some "things" for one-year-old Harry, such as Parseltongue, such as the dream in 1994.
The twins' expressions became serious. They realized the seriousness of the matter and were worried about Harry's safety.
"That's why Harry saw the scene where his father was attacked thousands of miles away at school. Then..." Fred said, "What about him?"
Ada never put down the cup in her right hand, and she poured all the liquid in the cup into the empty cup in the middle. The one who put down his right hand picked up the cup on the left and poured the same into the cup in the middle.
This time, only the middle cup contained Butterbeer.
The twins watched in silence as Ada fiddled with the cups, their brows frowning more and more. The two brothers drank gulps of butterbeer to relieve the tension in their hearts.
There is me in you and you in me. Not only Harry can see and perceive Voldemort's thoughts, and even dream about what Voldemort is doing, Voldemort can also do it.
The connection is not a one-way street between Harry and Voldemort, but a mutual one. This is what Dumbledore worries about.
After all, Harry is just an immature child, and Voldemort is good at deceiving people. In front of the powerful Voldemort, Harry's mind was vulnerable.
"I think you are hiding something important from us." George said suddenly. He looked into Ada's eyes, trying to see if Ada's eyes would dodge.
Hearing this, Fred also looked at Ada, but Ada's eyes did not dodge, but instead met the twins.
"Do you believe me?" she asked.
"Believe it," Fred and George replied, "forever."
