Hogwarts card wizard

Chapter 397 St. Mungo's Acquaintance

The ward where Neville's parents lived was on the eighth floor, in the Spell Damage Unit.The patients treated are all permanent injuries caused by spells or various magical accidents,

This department is similar to the "mental hospital" of Muggles, except that there are more "types" of patients in the spell injury department than the mental illness in the eyes of Muggles.

Because they didn't want to squeeze the elevator, several people went up the stairs.

On the way Harry asked, "Ron, why didn't I see the doctor?"

"Doctors? Those Muggles you said cut people open? No! Harry, there are no doctors here, only healers!" Ron explained.

Harry had nothing to say, he and Ron were not at all on the same page about the doctor.

When they came to the fifth floor, Neville's parents hadn't seen him yet. Unexpectedly, they met an acquaintance first.

Kevin and the others walked out of the stairwell and bumped into someone head-on.

The man bowed and apologized very gentlemanly after bumping into them.

"Oh! I'm so sorry, gentlemen! I was so reckless."

Kevin froze for a moment, and said, "What a familiar voice!"

Harry and Ron also nodded, and said, "It's very familiar."

Hermione suddenly remembered something, recognized the owner of the voice, and said in surprise, "Merlin's beard! Lockhart!"

"what?"

The man raised his head, with blond hair, bright eyes, a free and easy smile, and the iconic white dazzling teeth.

It was their idiot second-year professor, Gilderoy Lockhart.

Lockhart was not surprised when Hermione called out his name, he smiled and said, "I know, you are here to ask me for an autograph, right?"

Harry asked softly; "Isn't he imprisoned in Azkaban?"

Kevin said: "It's just erasing other people's memory, it's not a felony. I was released, I didn't expect him to be here."

Hermione looked at Lockhart with distaste, and said, "Being attacked by my own Oblivion Curse, where else can I stay here? Who would take in a guy who is trying to gain fame!"

How much Hermione admired Lockhart before, how much she hates him now.

"Oh, do you know me?" Lockhart said happily: "Haha! What a surprise! Tell me, how many of my autographs do you need! I can write to you, you know? I can write cursive!"

At this moment, a female therapist hurried over, and upon seeing Lockhart, a motherly smile appeared on her face.

"Oh! Gildero! Why did you come here?" The woman blamed with a smile.

Then I saw Kevin and the others, and said happily: "Are you here to visit him? And it's still Christmas, it's great! Do you know? No one has ever visited him! Poor little lamb, I can't figure it out , he is obviously so cute, isn't he?"

Kevin and the others blushed and almost didn't laugh. This lady was the first to praise Lockhart so much.

Ron whispered: "Who will come to visit him? Do you expect those people whose memory he erased to visit him?"

Harry joked: "No! Ron! That's not visiting, it should be called murder!"

Lockhart said excitedly: "They are asking me for autographs, they want a lot, and they won't give or agree! I wish I could have so many photos."

Ron didn't like Lockhart in the first place, not to mention that he had to erase the memory of himself and others when he was in the secret room, but he couldn't say anything when he saw the kind face of the female nurse.

Kevin took a step forward and said, "He used to be our teacher, let's come over and visit the Longbottoms by the way! Do you know where they are?"

"Oh! They're in the treatment area, go right from here, the fifth door!"

After speaking, he coaxed Lockhart to go to the ward.

Kevin looked at Lockhart's ignorant look, and said with a smile: "Honestly! I think Lockhart is cute now, at least much cuter than when he was in school."

"Haha! That's right! It's cute!"

"Cute little lamb! Hahaha!"

……

Following the instructions of the therapist, the four of them came to the treatment area. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Neville and a middle-aged lady beside him.

"Neville!" Kevin called out.

Neville was shocked when he saw the four of them, his expression was slightly dull, and he hurried over.

He looked at Kevin and the others unnaturally, and asked, "Why are you here?"

Kevin smiled and said, "Of course I came to visit your parents."

Neville had a slight "shyness" on his face, not because he was shy, but because he was afraid that his friends would laugh at him when he saw his parents.

"Thank you!" Neville looked at the four gratefully and said, "I mean thank you for coming."

At this time, the middle-aged lady came over, wearing pajamas, her hair was already a lot of white, messy and dry, and she was thin and haggard.

She didn't seem to notice Kevin and the others, but looked at Neville who was aside.Looking at her expression, she seemed to want to speak, but her mouth moved and she couldn't open it.

Neville introduced "shyly", "This is my mother!"

The four of Kevin looked at Neville's mother with inexplicable sadness in their hearts, and they didn't know what to say.

In the photos left by Kevin's parents, in the photos Sirius gave Harry, they had seen the Longbottoms.They look energetic in the photo, with happy smiles on their faces, but now...

Mrs. Longbottom timidly gestured at Neville, and finally handed Neville something.

Neville took it, it should be a piece of wrapping paper or something, no one knows what it is for.

Neville smiled and said softly, "Thanks, Mom!"

Mrs. Longbottom showed a smile on her face, and staggered away, humming a strange song.

Harry asked softly, "Neville, your mother..."

Neville lowered his head, his voice was full of inferiority, and said: "My parents were tortured with the Cruciatus Curse and became what they are now. I'm sorry, guys! She's not normal!"

"No! Neville!"

Sensing Neville's inferiority complex, Hermione said excitedly, "Mrs. Longbottom is a great person. This is not something to be ashamed of. I can even tell their achievements. They are legends among Aurors."

Kevin patted Neville on the shoulder, nodded and said, "That's right! Neville, you should be proud and proud to have such parents."

Harry also said: "Yes, your parents are amazing!"

Neville looked up at his four friends, smiled gratefully, and said, "Thank you, friends! Really!"

Ron smiled and said, "You should, you're welcome! But why didn't you see your father?"

Neville's face became more confident, and he seemed confident when talking about his parents.

"My dad is undergoing treatment, and you may not see him today," Neville said.

Just at this moment, an old woman in a strange dress came over.
