The school clinic was filled with a faint herbal scent, and various medical instruments and bottles of medicine were hung on the walls.

Madam Pomfrey stood by the bed, wand in hand, examining Phoenix carefully.

After a moment, Madam Pomfrey gently put down her wand, frowned and said:

"I have three broken ribs. I need to rest for a while before I can recover properly."

There was a hint of worry in her voice.

"Thank you, Madam Pomfrey."

Headmaster Dumbledore thanked Madam Pomfrey at this time.

His eyes were full of gratitude, as if he was expressing his deepest respect to this lady with superb medical skills.

Madam Pomfrey nodded, and scanned Phoenix's body with her wand again. After confirming that everything was correct, she left the ward.

Astoria sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the sleeping Phoenix, her eyes full of self-blame and guilt.

She said softly:

"I'm sorry, if it wasn't for saving me, she wouldn't have been injured so badly."

Headmaster Dumbledore walked over to Astoria, patted her shoulder and said comfortingly:

"This may not be a bad thing. Maybe the little guy will be happy when he wakes up!"

There was a mysterious smile on his face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

Headmaster Dumbledore continued:

"I still have a lot of things to do at school, so I'll go back first. You can stay here and stay with her longer."

After saying that, he turned and left the school infirmary.

Astoria frowned and looked at Draco with confusion in her eyes, as if asking him what was going on.

She really couldn't figure out the situation and felt as if she had come to a completely unfamiliar Hogwarts.

Everything here felt so strange, so different from the school she remembered.

Draco scratched his head, looking helpless.

He really didn't know how to explain all this to Astoria.

At this moment, Hermione on the side suddenly spoke:

"When she wakes up, let her tell you in person. This is the wisest approach."

Astoria turned her gaze to Hermione and asked with confusion on her face:

"Can't you just tell me?"

"For example, who exactly is this girl? What did you go through during this time?"

"Also, where did Phoenix go?"

Astoria really didn't understand why Draco and the others kept it from her, and she couldn't help but feel an inexplicable fear rising in her heart.

"Something must have happened in Phoenix, otherwise they wouldn't have kept it from me."

Astoria thought to herself, and her face turned even paler.

Seeing this, Harry hurriedly explained:

"Well...don't worry, Phoenix is ​​fine, it's just that things are a little complicated."

"It's hard for us to explain, and the girl knows the situation best, so we think it's best for her to explain it."

At the same time, the four of them were secretly laughing in their hearts, looking forward to seeing Phoenix's explanation, imagining that it would be very interesting.

Astoria was relieved, but still couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Who is this girl?"

After all, she couldn't possibly not know the name of her savior!

Draco, Harry, Ron and Hermione looked at each other and said in unison:

"Well...we haven't finished our homework yet. We'll leave first. Bye!"

After saying that, they left the school infirmary as quickly as an arrow.

Astoria was left standing there alone, at a loss as to what to do.

She stared blankly at the girl on the hospital bed, and an inexplicable sense of closeness surged in her heart, as if this girl had some connection with her.

This feeling made her want to get closer involuntarily, but she didn't know how to express it.

Time passed quietly, night fell, and Phoenix slowly opened his eyes.

Although Madam Pomfrey had applied potion on her chest, she could still feel a dull pain.

At this moment, Astoria noticed that Phoenix had woken up, and hurried forward, asking with concern:

"Student, how do you feel? Does the wound still hurt? Do you need me to call Madam Pomfrey?"

Her voice was full of concern and her eyes showed her worry for Phoenix.

Phoenix was stunned for a moment, a trace of panic flashed through his mind, but he quickly regained his composure, avoided Astoria's sight, and said softly:

"No, no thanks!"

Astoria looked at Phoenix and said with apology in her eyes:

"I should be the one saying thank you. If you hadn't saved me, I would be the one lying here."

Phoenix shook his head superficially and replied calmly:

"This is what I should do."

However, Phoenix's mind was already in a mess at this moment, and he had no idea how to deal with the situation.

She secretly complained about her bad luck, thinking that this time she had really messed up something big.

There is only one thought in my mind:

"Cool cool!"

Astoria noticed that the girl's eyes were a little evasive, and she seemed a little shy and nervous, and she couldn't help but smile slightly.

I think she might just be an introvert and not very good at communicating with strangers.

So she smiled gently and asked softly:

"Classmate, my name is Astoria Greengrass, what's your name?"

Phoenix opened his mouth, took a deep breath, and prepared to confess everything. At this moment...

The door suddenly opened with a loud noise, and Phoenix and Astoria turned around in surprise.

Harry, Ron and Draco were lying on the ground in a neat row, and behind them stood Hermione with her face covered.

Draco was the first to complain:

"Ron, this is all because of you, why are you pushing so hard?"

Ron responded with dissatisfaction:

"Harry was also squeezing in, why are you only talking about me..."

Draco retorted without hesitation:

"It's your fault anyway!"

After saying this, he stood up firmly, shook off the dust on his body, and then said to himself:

"Oh, why am I sleepwalking again? I have to go back to sleep."

Seeing this, Harry and Ron immediately understood what Draco meant and wanted to imitate Draco and pretend to sleepwalk, but they were interrupted by Phoenix's scolding just as they were about to speak.

"stop!"

Phoenix shouted loudly. Her voice was so clear and stern that it made people stop in their tracks.

Hermione was so embarrassed that she wanted to die on the spot. She even felt that she could dig out a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment with her feet, and a brand new one at that.

She really admires these stupid teammates!

Originally, everyone just wanted to take a peek at Phoenix and Astoria's confession, but Draco even brought a camera.

But who would have thought?
