[HP] Luna, you are in for a big deal

Chapter 41 St. Mungo's Hospital

Before Christmas, the second Hogwarts game of the year began, which was also Luna's first official game.

"Hey, don't be nervous, Luna." Qiu patted Luna's shoulder, "It's just as good as you usually practice, you are very good."

"OK, thank you."

In fact, Luna is not very nervous, only a little bit, she is worried that her pitch is not good enough.

But this worry disappeared when they saw the cheering figures in the audience. Both the twins and Hermione were holding up signs with Luna's name on them, and their cheers almost drowned out all other voices on the field.

The game ended with 220 points to 40 points. Qiu caught the Golden Snitch and Ravenclaw scored 7 goals. It must be said that Luna scored 3 goals alone. For the first time participating in an official game, This result is good enough.

But the victory of the game didn't make Luna feel good for a long time, and Umbridge was still looking for trouble everywhere.She watches over every one of Sirius' classes to make sure he doesn't teach any "messy" spells.

"My temper has been much better recently." Sirius didn't show much displeasure, he was very happy that Harry formed his own team, and he often gave Harry various opinions, of course, at night, haha Leigh came alone wearing the Invisibility Cloak because Umbridge didn't allow anyone to talk to Sirius after class.

"She couldn't find a reason to fire me." Sirius blinked happily and whispered.

Luna followed the other students out of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom before Umbridge approached.

On the last day before the Christmas holiday, Hermione woke up and found that Harry and the Weasleys were gone, and she ran to find Luna in a hurry.

"I didn't see them at all." Luna was as surprised as Hermione. She had seen the group of people last night when they were having dinner in the auditorium, and there was no sign of leaving.

Hermione was going crazy. A group of people with the best relationship with her disappeared from the castle where she was, but she didn't even notice any movement.

"I guess something serious happened," said Hermione. "Let's go to Dumbledore and ask."

But before the two girls took any action, Dumbledore had already found them. Of course, it was not Dumbledore who came in person, but Dobby the house elf who came to inform the letter.

"Hello, two best friends of Harry Potter, Mr. Dumbledore asked me to find the two ladies." Dobby said in his shrill voice.

"Dobby? What happened? Where did Harry go?" Hermione asked impatiently.

"Harry Potter and the Weasley children and Sirius Black have all gone to Fawkes, Mr. Dumbledore said." Dobby repeated Dumbledore's words, and Dumbledore was obviously It refers to the Order of the Phoenix, but he couldn't make it clear, so he used the word Fawkes. They all knew that Fawkes was Dumbledore's phoenix.

"Weasley's father was injured, and Dumbledore sent them all away to see him," Dobby went on.

"Mr. Weasley is injured?!" Luna and Hermione exclaimed at the same time.

Dobby blinked his big eyes sadly, "I know the two ladies must be very sad too, but the ladies can't leave until the school is completely closed tonight, that lady named Umbridge is making things difficult for Dumbledore She is very angry, sir, because Mr. Dumbledore took Harry Potter and his friends under her nose, and she will definitely keep her eyes on the ladies."

After Dobby left, Luna and Hermione were still reeling from the news of Mr. Weasley's injury.

"Mr. Weasley is injured... What the hell is going on..." Hermione murmured, "Why did you take Harry away with you? Could it be that Harry... By the way, Luna, have you been busy lately?" Heard him say his scar hurts?"

"The scar hurts? No," Luna also thought of one thing. Last year, Harry told himself that he saw Voldemort in a dream. After that dream, his scar hurt for a long time.

"I guess," said Hermione, "the reason why Harry went with them was probably because Harry saw Voldemort again, so he realized something was wrong, and then Dumbledore sent them away together..."

The two girls didn't know exactly what it was like, but it turned out afterwards that Hermione's guess was pretty much the same.

Luna originally had a Defense Against the Dark Arts class during the day, but because Sirius had already left last night, this class had to be skipped.

Towards the evening, Luna received a letter from Xenophilius, who said he still had some business to attend to and asked Luna and Hermione to take the evening Knight bus, which he would pick up on the way and take Luna and Hermione go to the Order of the Phoenix.

"It seems that only the two of us can act now." Hermione raised her eyebrows, "At least Mr. Lovegood is picking us up halfway."

"How do you think we can get on the Knight Bus?" Luna asked. The two girls had been standing outside the Hogwarts gate for 10 minutes, but there was no sign of the Knight Bus.

"Maybe we should shout, I want a ride?" Hermione looked around suspiciously.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Hermione said "I want to take a car", there was a shock, and a very long car stopped in front of the two girls. A tall boy with freckles.

"Hey! Get in the car? Girls," the boy asked.

Luna and Hermione glanced at each other, obviously stunned by the sudden appearance of the car, but their reaction was quick, and they immediately moved the luggage to the car.

The Cavalier wouldn't pass Grimmauld Place in London until seven o'clock tomorrow morning, so Luna and Hermione still had time to get a good night's sleep.

"When will Mr. Lovegood come?"

Luna shook her head, "I don't know either, it might be midnight, I don't know where he will get on the bus, but we can go to bed first, we won't be there until tomorrow morning anyway."

The knight's car was quite bumpy, and it was impossible to sleep peacefully at all, but the feeling of bumps disappeared in the middle of the night, and Luna didn't know why she couldn't feel the bumps in the car until she slept in the morning.

"Daddy?" Luna was happy to see Xenophilius, who was asleep in the next bunk.

"Hush——" Hermione, who was also awake, motioned to Luna to whisper, "Mr. Lovegood came at two o'clock in the morning, and he cast a stabilizing spell on our bed."

Luna didn't speak anymore, she was afraid of waking Xenophilius up.It is already six o'clock in the morning, and we will arrive at Grimmauld Place in an hour. I don't know how everyone is doing in the Order of the Phoenix. Whether Mr. Weasley's injury is serious or not...

This question was finally answered after Xenophilius took Luna and Hermione to 12 Grimmauld Place.

"Oh! You are here," Mrs. Weasley hugged the two girls as soon as she saw them. "Are you tired from the journey? I made breakfast, thanks for your hard work, Xenophilius."

"Oh, nothing, how is Arthur now?" Xenophilius asked.

Mrs. Weasley's face was full of tiredness, but she still smiled and said, "Thank you, he's fine. He's in St. Mungo's Hospital. We went to see him yesterday and he's out of danger."

From Ron, Luna and Hermione finally knew what happened. It was indeed as Hermione guessed, he saw Mr. Weasley being attacked in his dream, he saw Mr. Weasley Bitten by a big snake.

"Harry actually saved Dad," said Ron. "If he hadn't seen it, Dad might not have been found for hours, but Professor Moody said... Yesterday, in the hospital, we overheard Yes, he said, Harry might have been possessed by You-Know-Who, because Harry said he didn't see Dad being attacked as a bystander, but saw it as the snake that bit Dad."

Harry is now alone in the cubicle on the top floor, and he doesn't want to see anyone. He hasn't spoken since he came back from St. Mungo's yesterday afternoon. He woke up at an unknown time in the morning and has been hiding on the top floor .

After learning about the situation, Luna and Hermione decided to go up to him.

When they passed the fourth floor, Fred and George were coming out of the room.

"Hey, you're here!" Fred greeted loudly, "When did you arrive?"

"In a while," Luna said, "we are going to go up to see Harry first."

"Look at Harry? Good luck, he's in a bad state." George shrugged.

In the dark compartment on the top floor, Luna and Hermione finally saw Harry, who was in a bad state. He squatted in the corner and looked at the ground. To be honest, he had never been so haggard.

"Hello, Hermione, Luna." Harry forced a smile, he wobbled when he stood up, and Hermione hurried up to support him.

"Harry, how long have you been here? Why don't you go down to dinner."

"Not long, I'm not hungry."

Luna felt that Harry looked very angry in this way, "Harry, I heard that you think you are possessed by Voldemort?"

Harry froze for a moment when he heard Luna say Voldemort's name for the first time.

"Don't be so obsessed with it, Ron is sure to tell us that you were still yelling in bed for a minute before you woke up, and you didn't fly somewhere else to bite Mr. Weasley," Luna said.

Hermione also explained patiently, "You can't be possessed by Voldemort, because you always know what you are doing, and being possessed or cast with the Imperius Curse will have a large and blank memory, and you will Don't know what I'm doing, but you're not like that, are you? You're just dreaming."

Harry still didn't speak, so Luna could only play the pitiful card, "Harry, we drove here all night and didn't want to stand here hungry, I didn't see Sirius downstairs just now, But what will he say when he comes back and finds out that you left me and Hermione here to starve and freeze with you?"

"Uh, I'm sorry." Harry's lifeless face finally brightened a little, and he finally agreed to go downstairs.

Luna didn't know what kind of situation everyone would face. She had always been in a very safe environment, but Luna felt faintly uneasy, as if something big would happen.

During the Christmas holiday, everyone stayed in the Order of the Phoenix. Although the twins have been actively creating all kinds of farce, the overall atmosphere is still not good, especially every member of the Order of the Phoenix came and left in a hurry , which made the children nervous who couldn't participate in everything.

On Christmas Day, the festive atmosphere finally eased some tension. Sirius said that everyone can go to the hospital to visit Mr. Weasley after lunch. It is great to have a little time to leave this suffocating place.

But at St. Mungo's Hospital, everyone saw not only Mr. Weasley, who was in a much better condition, but also some unexpected people.

"Professor Lockhart?" Ron was the first to spot the man who still looked handsome.

Gilderoy Lockhart was dazed for a moment, but he quickly grinned, "You know me? You want my autograph too?"

Everyone was taught by Lockhart, and they all know that the current Lockhart was rebounded by the Forgetting Curse a few years ago, and his memory was permanently damaged, but now he looks silly and cute. It was much cuter back then.

Ron has always felt guilty about Lockhart's amnesia, because it was his breaking the spell that caused Lockhart to be rebounded by the spell.

"Hey, don't be stupid, if your wand is intact, you will be the one who looks like this now." Ginny whispered to Ron from behind.

But in the end, everyone decided to accompany Professor Lockhart for a while, after all, he was also a former professor.

So everyone followed the bouncing Lockhart to his ward, and when Lockhart pulled out a bunch of pictures of him and started signing, the twins were the first to start fidgeting.

"Are we really going to see his autograph here?" Fred muttered softly.

"Shall we go back to Papa?" said George.

"Good idea!" Fred immediately agreed.

"No, no!" Ginny quickly stopped, "We came out together, if you two go back first, Mom will say that we are worse than you two."

"What do you mean we are inferior?" Fred became dissatisfied.

Luna quickly pulled Fred, "Don't make noise, let's go back together, we won't wait too long."

Just as Luna was persuading Fred, the voice of the little nurse in the ward came from the side.

"Are you going, Mrs Longbottom?"

This surname is undoubtedly familiar to everyone. A very serious old lady came out from the place where the thick curtain was hung in the innermost part of the ward. Behind her was a tall boy with his head hanging down. Everyone knew him. Neville Longbottom.

But Neville, who saw the crowd, instantly became terrified, his mouth was open and his face was flushed.

"Hello, Neville." Hermione was the first to greet him.

Neville was extremely embarrassed, he didn't speak, but the old woman in front of him looked over, "Is this your classmate? Neville."

Luna felt that the old woman looked too serious. She didn't know whether Neville was suppressed by her seriousness and dared not speak, or for some other reason, but he didn't say anything.

"Neville, what are you doing here?" Ginny asked. "Is anyone you know sick?"

It was still the old woman who answered, with a flash of displeasure on her face, "Why, Neville, haven't you told your classmates about your parents? They didn't lose their health and sanity to make their only son Feel ashamed."

Neville looked like he was about to cry. In fact, even Luna had heard about Neville's parents. She still sees pictures of the Longbottoms almost every day, hanging on the pages of the Order of the Phoenix. in the living room.The two of them joined the Order of the Phoenix when it was first established, but 14 years ago, they were tortured mad by Bellatrix Lestrange with the Cruciatus Curse, and Bellatrix also entered because of this. of Azkaban.

Ginny realized that she had asked something she shouldn't have asked, so she quickly shut up, and everyone else was dumb. Listening to Mrs. Longbottom proudly talking about the deeds of Neville's parents, Luna really hoped that Wei hurriedly left the ward, because his embarrassed appearance seemed extremely painful.

"Alice, why did you come out?" A thin woman who came out from behind the curtain interrupted Mrs. Longbottom's speech.

Luna recognized the woman as Neville's mother at a glance, but she looked much older than in the photo, and her eyes were completely dull.

"Oh, Neville, go ahead, never mind what it is," said the old lady.

Neville's mother walked up to Neville in a daze. She held a shiny thing in her hand, which should be a candy wrapper. Neville quickly took the candy wrapper with both hands. The dazed woman with completely blank eyes seemed to be She showed some emotion, but before she could see clearly, she walked back behind the curtain in a trance.

"Okay, it's time for us to go. Throw that thing into the trash can. What she gave you can cover the walls of your house." Mrs. Longbottom said as she walked out.

Neville didn't look at everyone anymore, he followed his grandmother and left, but Luna saw clearly that he didn't throw away the candy wrapper, but carefully put it in his pocket.

Luna suddenly wanted to cover her heart, because she couldn't help but feel very uncomfortable. She never knew what kind of person Neville's mother was. Those of them who lived in the Order of the Phoenix and knew this story were warned not to tell it. , so Luna has not put much thought into this story, at most, every time she sees Neville, she feels sorry for what happened to his parents, but when she sees this thin woman, she really can't help it. Imagine that she could withstand torture like the Cruciatus Curse.

When Fred patted Luna's shoulder and signaled her to leave, Luna realized that she was about to cry just now. She was thinking of Pandora...
