[HP] Don't talk to me

Bryce's first trip to the Leaky Cauldron ended badly, as I suffered a sudden malaise after my second Bloody Mary.I had a severe abdominal pain and then almost had stomach cramps.

Bryce was probably frightened by me. He paid the bill first, then helped me out of the bar and back to Diagon Alley.As soon as I arrived in the alley, I leaned against the street wall and sat down on the ground, my whole forehead was covered with sweat.

"What to do, can you go back to school?" Bryce asked eagerly, "Do you want to go to the hospital? I know you are very ill."

"Take me to St. Mungo's and I'll show you the fastest way to get there."

I gritted my teeth, barely resisting the attacks my body made to me.The turmoil in my stomach made me feel like I was in the middle of a boxing match in a speakeasy on Knockturn Alley.

Bryce has never been to St. Mungo's, but he is very sensible when things happen. After I only confessed a few words, I was too painful to speak, but he was able to quickly grasp the main points of my words, and soon Sent me to St. Mungo's Hospital.

I really don't want to go back to this place, the smell of the potion for several months is still lingering in my heart.

I have a deep psychological shadow on this hospital. How much effort I spent to escape from here, how much effort I have to spend to convince myself to step in again now.

Unfortunately, I surrendered too quickly.

Abdominal pain is fatal - I thought about it quickly in my head: Going back to Hogwarts to see Madam Pomfrey won't solve the problem, nor can an impromptu trip to the nearby drugstore to buy a healing potion.I suspect that the abdominal pain this time is due to the side effects of the scorpion stone, because I have checked the relevant books, and I have prepared myself, but I don't know why it doesn't happen sooner or later, and it happens to happen suddenly at this time.

I had a bad day, too weak to be weak enough to think about whether it would be discovered that I had used a scorpion stone when I entered St. Mungo's this way.Seeing me falling to the ground, Bryce finally picked me up horizontally, rushed into the emergency room, and shouted for Dr. Mendel that I wanted him to find.

I was upside down in his arms, groggy.I just felt that he hugged me very tightly, he ran very fast, and his shouts were very urgent, and I was a little embarrassed to break free, but slowly lost consciousness.

"...Acute gastroenteritis, as I said."

"Doctor, when will she wake up?"

"I have already drank the awakening potion, and I guess I will wake up soon."

I heard two familiar voices, Mendel and Bryce.I opened my eyes, and sure enough it was the two of them, standing at the head of my bed, talking to each other.

Before I opened my mouth, I instinctively looked around, and immediately my eyes darkened and I almost lost my breath—I went back to the ward where I stayed for several months!The moment of loss and collapse almost knocked me down, and I felt like I was locked in Azkaban again.

Dr. Mendel, with his professional acumen, quickly noticed that I was awake, with my mouth open. "Are you feeling better?" He leaned over and rolled my eyelids with his thumb.

I nodded, still in my own frustration.

"You have an acute gastroenteritis, did you eat something you shouldn't eat?" Mendel said unhurriedly, "Although your injury is healed, your immunity is still very fragile. Don't eat anything."

"Acute gastroenteritis?" I asked hoarsely.

"That's right." Mendel nodded. "I'll prescribe a few more bottles of soothing potions for you, just rest for a few days and not eat randomly."

"Fortunately, there is no major problem, it scared me." Bryce breathed a sigh of relief.

My heart immediately turned from grief to ecstasy—it seems that I was not found to be using banned drugs. "When can I go back to school?"

"Are you in a hurry?" Mendel shrugged. "Anytime, but—pay first."

sky!In less than a second, I took a deep breath and almost passed out.

This time, my abdominal pain seemed to come and go quickly.But my heartache came quickly and couldn't go away.

I was about to contribute to The Quibbler, criticizing the exorbitant fees at St. Mungo's Hospital, and took a few deep breaths before I could hold it back.What does it mean to go bankrupt for the second time within one day?

Back at Hogwarts, I already had nothing to say with a sad face.Bryce walked me cautiously back to the door of my room, and I came back to thank him.

"I'm sorry to let you spend a whole day with me."

"Nothing, are you feeling better now?"

I nodded, then sighed again.

"Remember to drink the potion on time."

I bent the corner of my mouth and looked at this lovely man in front of me. His character is really careful and gentle, much better than a black-haired man with a bad temper.

After Bryce left, I went into the room, washed up and fell asleep quickly.

The next day was Monday, and there was another whole day of classes, with classes in different grades and colleges.Fortunately, it was almost the end of the term, so I gave the children self-study directly, and I nestled on the podium to rest.

I thought for a long time how to find Snape.You know, the reason why I didn't commit suicide when I had stomach pains, and paid a lot of money to go to St. Mungo's, is because I can't die yet, because I haven't found Snape yet.

If I don't find him and see him well, I can't close my eyes.

It's not feasible to go to the potion shop to be garrisoned. Professor McGonagall had already said that she was writing the final speech during the morning chat. When I was in St. Mungo's yesterday, I asked Dr. Mendel about it, but there was no clue.

Maybe I'll just have to force him to show up another way, tricky old bat!

I smoked two more packs of my new Muggle cigarettes before dinner when I finally hit on a trick.

And this trick, if I go well, I can get another chance.

After dinner that evening, I went to find Meg.

"What?" Mag let out a surprise after receiving the letter I presented.

"Minerva, I've made up my mind."

"But...why?" Mag waved the letter in her hand, which was a brief resignation letter I just wrote.

I moved my lips, seeing the shock and concern on Mag's face, I was a little moved.There are really many people here who care about me, and it is impossible for me not to feel it.

"I'm just tired, Minerva." I finished, and added, "I need a good rest. Leaving school may help me recover better."

"Why don't you discuss it with Severus after he returns to school?"

I shook my head violently and said, "Don't do that, Minerva! You know, I don't want to tell Severus about this, and while he's not at school, you are the acting principal and have the power to let me go, so you can do it for me Good thing!"

"But, in this case, when Severus comes back, how can I tell him?" McGonagall showed embarrassment.

"If you have any questions, let him find me." I said, "Minerva, don't worry, Severus will not make things difficult for you."

"Let me think about it..." Mag didn't accept my resignation immediately, she said that she had to think carefully before making a decision.I guess Snape didn't tell her when he asked her to be acting headmaster that I must be guarded in the school and not allowed to leave. After all, the personal grievances between me and him should not involve others. The general mouth is very strict.

However, he probably didn't expect that I would decide to run away while he was away.

I know that according to McGonagall's responsible attitude, if she agrees to my resignation, she will definitely tell Snape secretly. After all, the acting headmaster is obliged to report the school's personnel changes to the headmaster.

I can't wait for the permission to resign, and the binding spell that Snape cast on me at Hogwarts will expire.Before I leave, if Snape doesn't come to see me, then I'll just leave without any regrets.

If he comes to me, then it means that I have found him at the same time.

I spent a week in school, and it was getting closer and closer to the end of the period, and it was still calm.During this period of time, when I have nothing to do, I go to the library to look for information, to see if I can find clues about the scorpion stone. In such a large area of ​​the British Isles, I think there is always a place where I can find materials for making them. As written above □□, it is only available in Central and Eastern Europe, right?

Strangely, Andrew did not write again.I couldn't figure out why he didn't write, so I wrote several more letters to ask him what was the matter, but there was no reply.

I'm waiting for McGonagall's letter of dismissal.

McGonagall tells me every day that she needs to think about it.I wondered if she was waiting for Snape to return to school, but if Snape did come back, it wouldn't matter.

The point is, there is still no news about Snape, and there is still no result for my resignation.

Bryce will help me make potions in the cellar during this time. In order to pay off the debt, I sold the two high-grade potions he made for me last time and sold them at a good price. I also learned that the potion shop still has some potions. The order was needed, so I proceeded decisively.Maybe I don't have to pay Snape's money right away, but I can't afford to owe the store and the hospital for too long.

I didn't want to tell Bryce about my resignation, but once when I was looking for medicine, I helped him write a long list of potion ingredients in the cellar storage room. He thanked me, and I joked that it was because there was no Help him, maybe it won't help soon.

"Why?" Bryce always had an attitude of breaking the casserole and asking the end.

"Because I'm leaving soon," I said lightly.

Hearing me say that I was leaving Hogwarts, Bryce's face darkened. "Has the principal agreed?"

I smile lightly. "You think I'm just looking at his face like that, and I have to have his consent before I can leave?"

"That's true, I think he may really be unable to control you." Bryce also laughed, but he looked a little reluctant. "I hope we'll still be friends after you leave here."

"Of course, where can I find a potion genius like you to be my friend?" I blinked.

That night, I went back to my room with three potions, contented.The tunnel was very dark. When I reached the door, I reached for the key and raised my hand to unlock it.

It's a pity that before I had time to open the door and enter, I was already hugged.
