[Zhongyingmei] Miss Luck

Winnie and Strange have finally confirmed their relationship thoroughly, and have lived a happy life ever since...Of course, it's just the beginning.But there is nothing wrong with giving such a prefix to Winnie's life these days.

Winnie reopened the flower shop that she had no business in, and went to visit Astoria, who was about to be discharged from the hospital, after closing every day.When Astoria learned that Winnie had participated in the battle against Doomsday that had been repeatedly reported on Muggle TV in the past few days, she was dumbfounded, and it took her a long time to find her tongue.

"You you... Winnie, you are really..."

Astoria always thought that her friend was a troublesome person, but she didn't expect that the other party would immediately make such a big news behind her back.

Draco hadn't come yet, and in the ward where medical staff might come in at any time, Winnie didn't use magic, but directly peeled an apple for Astoria.The ruddy and crystal-clear apple peel fell on the bed cabinet in circles, and Winnie pinched the whole apple to stop Astoria from continuing to speak.

Astoria, who was enjoying herself, wrinkled her nose, took out the apple in her mouth and bit it one by one, and when Draco came over, she and her husband immediately revealed what Winnie did just now.

As soon as Draco entered the door, he received a complaint from his wife, and he was quite at a loss in his heart.

During the few days when Winnie was not in the hospital, Draco personally accompanied Astoria himself. He was still worried about hiring an unfamiliar temporary nurse. This caused Winnie to discover that Draco's In the past few days, the lower jaw has obviously lost a lot of weight.

"When are you going to take Astoria back?"

Winnie heard Astoria talk about this incident, saying that her condition has basically improved, and she felt that staying in this hospital ward would be more comfortable than returning to Malfoy Manor, so she expressed her thoughts Talk to Draco.And after Draco thought about it, he also felt that there was really no need to stay here anymore, and returning home would also relieve him of the trouble of running back and forth. The husband and wife made a decision after reaching a consensus.

Draco told Winnie the answer: "Observe for another day, if it's all right, we plan to go back the morning after tomorrow."

Winnie nodded, remembering the discharge procedures, and then asked: "Do you need my help with the discharge procedures?"

Considering that her two friends were pure-blood wizards who had no contact with Muggle society before, although Winnie did not distrust Draco's ability to handle affairs, she thought about it, maybe she should help.

Draco didn't decline Winnie's suggestion, and after pondering for a while, he agreed.After all, comparatively speaking, Winnie is indeed more familiar with Muggle society than they are all.

Afterwards, Draco thought about what Winnie had asked him to do before, and he just talked about it with Winnie when there was progress today.

"Winnie, I found the potion formula that you asked me to pay more attention to in Knockturn Alley."

Winnie's eyes lit up, and she was full of joy on her face: "That's really great."

Seeing the look on her face, Draco knew that Winnie still hadn't given up trying to find the potion formula for the broken nerve to cure that Mr. Strange's hand.

"Winnie, you're not going to take Strange to St. Mungo's?"

Draco would think twice about doing things, but he didn't think that St. Mungo's couldn't go at all, and it didn't become the Dark Lord's stronghold there.

Winnie hesitated for a while when she heard Draco's words, but did not give a definite answer.Winnie still had some scruples about the fact that Death Eaters had sneaked into St. Mungo's before, but she didn't want to completely cut off the possibility of curing Stephen at that time, so asking Draco to help find the potion formula was just another matter. an alternative plan.

"I'll go back and talk to Stephen."

It just so happened that Modu's matter was also settled, and according to the original agreement between her and Stephen, the matter of his hand should indeed be put on the agenda.

Draco nodded, but changed the subject a moment later.

"About Doomsday, Winnie, are you with Mr. Strange?"

His wife, Astoria, told him when he first arrived that Winnie had risked herself to fight against the monster Doomsday with the superheroes in the American population, and this came to Draco's mind. guess.

Winnie froze for a few seconds, but nodded.

After coming out of the hospital, Winnie planned to go to Strange and mention this matter to him.

The sanctuary on Bleecker Street was already quite familiar to Winnie, and Strange usually stayed here when he had nothing to do.When Winnie came, the other party was sitting on the soft-backed single sofa that he always sat on, reading a book.

It was already night, and not only were the lights on inside the house, but the fireplace was also lit on the second floor where they were.The fireplace ignited by the magic flame does not actually have the heat of the flame itself, but it is a formation with magic functions.The lights from the suspended ceiling and the firelight from the fireplace make the whole space as bright as daytime.But these light sources bring a unique tranquil atmosphere in the house at night.

Strange heard Winnie's footsteps and looked up from the book.

"Winnie, are you here?"

Winnie walked across to him and just sat down when a tray floated in the distance, with a steaming teapot and two teacups on it.The enchanted teapot leisurely filled the two teacups that had spontaneously dropped on the table. Winnie saw the milky white tea noodles and smelled the sweetness of the milk tea. It turns out that what she likes to drink today milk tea.

Having done their job, the teapot tray and teacups lost the magic that had been attached to their surfaces and turned back into lifeless, dead objects.However, Winnie felt that the scene just now would make her feel more cordial. After all, most objects in the magical world can move like the teacup and teapot just now.So every time Winnie was in the Sanctuary, she would have the illusion of returning to Stuart Manor.

This thought made Winnie think of something she must mention to Stephen. Just as she was about to speak, Strange shook her with his index finger and nodded her teacup empty-handed.

"Don't you try my handicraft first?"

Winnie was taken aback by what he said, but when she looked at his deep-socketed eyes, she couldn't help feeling a bit of softness in her heart.She took a sip in response, and even the temperature of the milk tea was controlled just right by the magic. The hot air completely evaporated the aroma of the milk tea, but it was controlled within a temperature range that would not burn her tongue.

Seeing Winnie's relaxed brows, Strange knew that the pot of milk tea that catered to her taste had already won Winnie's favor.He changed the posture of crossing his legs, curled his lips and said to Winnie: "Okay, now you can speak, Winnie."

For some reason, Winnie saw that Stephen's attitude of proudly asking her to taste the milk tea was a bit cute and funny, and even the seriousness in the original words was diluted a lot.

Of course, Winnie didn't dare to laugh in front of Strange, otherwise she would be fighting with Stephen stubbornly.Winnie adjusted her expression, and said to Strange: "Stephen, shall we go to London in these two days? Your hand, we can go to St. Mungo's Hospital first."

Winnie relayed to Strange what Draco said to her before, and added another sentence at the end: "Although the person who pretended to be St. Mungo's healer has not been caught yet, it doesn't mean that St. Mungo There is danger, and I also asked Draco to find the potion formula."

Winnie wanted to reassure him, so she told Strange about her other plan.

Strange didn't object to her suggestion. He couldn't rely on his own magical power to heal his hand, but he still had a glimmer of hope for this matter after all.After weighing the pros and cons, Strange agreed.

The two were scheduled for the afternoon of Astoria's discharge from the hospital.

Winnie finished the discharge procedures for Astoria in the morning and sent the two of them back to London, then came back to find Strange. The two enjoyed a leisurely lunch in the Sanctuary before going directly to London through the Sanctuary .

London doesn't have the same fine weather as Manhattan today, and the overcast afternoon looks like it's going to rain again.Winnie led Strange through the crowds of traffic and arrived at the entrance of the old red brick department store where St. Mungo's was located.There was a "Closed for Renovation" sign on the gate, but Winnie whispered hello to the ugly and outdated doll in the glass window by the gate.Strange guessed that this might be another magical barrier used by wizards to shield ordinary people.

Winnie turned her head and waved to Strange: "Come on, Stephen."

Strange straightened his expression, said hello, and followed Winnie's footsteps through the glass window that had been opened to them.

Through the window, in front of them was the information desk of St. Mungo's Hospital. Winnie led Strange to the information desk and asked the witch standing there about where Strange's injury should be. A layer of treatment.The other party found that the man standing next to Winnie was a Muggle, and the original expression of highly serious work attitude became more exaggerated, Strange even cursed in his heart, her eyes staring at his hands were about to close Stared out from the socket.

The other party probably didn't know that her move was too obvious, and Winnie never liked people treating Strange with such an attitude.But she knew in her heart that the Muggles who really came to St. Mungo's treatment were basically injured by magic. Situations like Stephen's were rare.Coupled with the inherent barrier between wizards and Muggles, the witch at the information desk may have just reacted normally.

Winnie wasn't too good at saying anything, but her face turned gloomy towards the other party.

No matter what kind of person they are, when they get angry, they are somewhat fierce. The witch was obviously taken aback for a moment, and she also flinched from the expression on Winnie's face. Finally, she murmured and revealed the location to Winnie in a low voice. : "On the first floor, you take this Muggle to ask."

All the way is the Utensil Accident Department. Although it doesn't necessarily correspond to the symptoms of Strange's hands, it is the most suitable choice compared to the accident subjects corresponding to the upper floors.

Passing by the therapists in dark green robes who were busy running around, Strange himself was also a doctor before, after coming to the hospital in the wizarding world, he would inevitably pay more attention to the hospital's interior and its staff superior.After noticing the therapist, Strange naturally also noticed the patients waiting in the corridor. It can be said that he saw all kinds of strange symptoms at once.

In addition to looking for the department, Winnie's eyes were of course also on the people around her.She noticed the undisguised curiosity in Strange's eyes, and explained to him: "Those wearing dark green robes are the therapists here, which are equivalent to the role of 'doctors', and there are hospital signs on their robes." The emblem, a crossed crest of a bone and a wand."

Following Winnie's words, Strange also noticed the patterns on the chests of these therapists' clothes.At this moment, a not too tall and thin therapist in a dark green robe caught up with the two of them from behind.His eyes are somewhat narrow and long, and they are gray pupils. They are more like the high nose bridge of the Nordic people, and his lips are relatively thin, and they are always tightly pressed down. The whole person looks sharp and sinister.

Strange also noticed his pale face, as if he had just experienced a serious illness and hadn't recovered yet.

"Oh! It's you, Winnie Stuart."

Before the male therapist could say Winnie's name, Winnie frowned.The other person's appearance didn't change much, and Winnie remembered within a few seconds that this was her former Slytherin classmate, a staunch pure-bloodist, and his family even supported the Dark Lord in an extreme way.In the past, he often sneered at himself with raised eyebrows and raised eyes.

Winnie felt a little unlucky in her heart, but she no longer felt disgusted or fearful of these people as before.She said to the man standing in front of her, "What's the matter, Selwyn."

Albert Selwyn stared at Strange viciously for a few seconds, and then said to Winnie: "...a Muggle, a half-breed like you finally fell into the company of Muggles."

Winnie twitched her eyebrows when she heard that, but she held back what she was about to blurt out. In a place like St. Mungo's where vicious fighting is forbidden by default, Winnie didn't want to waste more words to cause disputes.

"Whatever you say, Selwyn, get out of the way."

The man's chest was heaving, and he was breathing heavily, and his emotions seemed to be excited all of a sudden.

"You shame on us! Get your Muggle friends out!"

But soon, Selwyn was controlled by other therapists who heard the sound and confiscated the wand he was about to take out.Some of the older blond male wizards stared at Winnie's hand that was also on the wand and frowned, but he also knew that Selwyn had started the farce first, so he just dissuaded him in a good voice: "Ma'am, St. Mungo is sincerely sorry for what just happened. But St. Mungo also forbids wand fighting. Selwyn doesn't usually do this. He probably hasn't recovered from the torture a while ago. Of course, the hospital will Revoke his current qualifications as a therapist at the hospital."

Winnie stared at the therapist opposite for a while before putting the wand back in her pocket.

Several therapists cast spells on the emotional Selwyn and worked together to carry him away.Winnie stood there for a while, and asked another therapist, and learned that Selwyn was tied up in the basement of his home for half a month, and the person who tied him up faked it with polyjuice potion. over him.By the time the Auror found Selwyn, Selwyn's mental state was already very bad.During this period, he himself stayed in St. Mungo's ward for a long time, and he just came back to work these two days.

Winnie frowned after hearing this, so the wizard who pretended to be St. Mungo's therapist and deliberately murdered Astoria was pretending to be Selwyn.

Although she herself felt that even if Selwyn was not impersonated, there was a considerable possibility of doing such a thing.Who made Lucius Malfoy get cold feet twice in order to escape the trial.

Hearing that the other party had begun to sigh how gentle Selwyn was usually, it must be the trauma left by the curse that caused his temperament to change drastically. Winnie twitched the corners of her mouth coldly, wanting to say Albert Selwyn Wen this person used to be a bad character when he was in school.

Strange glanced at Winnie's expression and said, "Let's go."

Winnie looked at him suspiciously: "What's wrong?"

The man walked back with big strides.

"I don't want to see it very much. Let's go back to the manor. Isn't there another way?"

The author has something to say: there is another chapter of about 4500 tonight... let alone rush to draft... I am about to enter the small dark room
