Gellert briefly passed out for a few minutes from his overexcitement.When he woke up, Albus and his phoenix were gone, and Abernathy was sitting by the bed, looking embarrassed, with many scratches criss-crossing his face.

"Please don't talk," the young subordinate said first, "please—the therapist has come, and he cast a spell on you. The corners of your mouth are split, and the throat is... sorry, I don't understand those words." Terminology, in short, don’t open your mouth to talk, those British guys are not easy to mess with. Oh, do you want to ask Professor Dumbledore?” Abernathy scratched his chin, “No way, sir, Antonio has gone on a hunger strike, and it put me on a hunger strike. He's got his face cracked, and none of us can catch him. Professor Dumbledore kindly took over when he heard about it. I asked Klare to take him to your house in Berlin... Maybe he can tame it Antonio."

Gellert shoots Abernathy the widest look he can so far.Abernathy pulled up the chair, leaned down, and lowered his voice mysteriously, "Your Excellency Grindelwald, Professor Dumbledore saved you. He brought you out of the mountain when you were dying and covered in blood. The therapist asserted that if it weren't for the tears of the phoenix, you would have to see Merlin soon." He became excited as he spoke, "I never thought that the phoenix really existed in the world! I thought it was a fairy tale. Your Excellency, Deng Professor Bullidow is very worried about you, because the British Ministry of Magic caused your injury, which is a serious diplomatic accident. The Ministry hoped that you could return to Berlin for treatment, but the British disagreed and found various high-sounding reasons. During the debate, Professor Dumbledore has always held you, with your noble head resting on his lap—"

There were voices in the corridor, and Abernathy shut up and looked back.The figure of Albus Dumbledore appeared, holding a cat in his arms, and Fawkes the Phoenix perched on his shoulder, wagging his tail displeasedly to avoid the cat's curious paws.

"Professor Dumbledore!" Abernathy stepped forward happily, "You're back! Oh, Antonio—"

Antonio gritted his teeth and neighed, and Albus stroked the soft fur on the cat's head, "It was in good spirits when I arrived."

"None of us could hold it," Abernathy said. "Antonio hated us."

"It's just a little shy, cats and cats are afraid of strangers." Albus said with a smile, holding Antonio's front paws to prevent him from messing with Fox.With a soft cry, the phoenix spread its wings and flew to Gellert's pillow, curled up and nestled there.Abernathy took his leave with a wink, not forgetting to close the door tightly.Albus let go, and Antonio immediately jumped onto the bed, stared at it for a few seconds, and then began to vigorously lick Gellert's skin exposed by the bandages.

"The curtains were scratched." Albus sat down and dusted his robes. "The kettle in the living room was also knocked over... Antonio couldn't find you, obviously very anxious."

Gellert moved his lips, trying to speak, but was annoyed to find himself under a Silencing Charm.Albus lowered his eyes and twirled his two thumbs.After a few minutes, he took out a large wad of cotton, tore off a small piece, soaked it in water, and wiped Gellert's lips.Gellert couldn't speak, but he wouldn't pass up the chance either.He opened his mouth and bit Albus' fingers with all his strength.When Albus pulled his finger out, it left a tooth mark on it.

"Are you hungry?" Albus thought thoughtfully, "That's right, you need to eat."

I'm not hungry!I want to talk.Gellert signaled with his eyes that Albus had already turned away, snapped his fingers, and a house-elf emerged from the air—big ears, fitted uniform, holding a large tray limply, screaming. "Master Albus! Ruan Ruan has cooked delicious soups and stews. The stews are so bad that even an old man with no teeth can eat them. And apple puree, blueberry jam, the fluffiest bread—"

"Thank you, Ruanrou," said Albus, taking the tray and placing it on the head of the bed.Ruanrou lifted up her skirt, saluted, and then disappeared into the air. "My craftsmanship is very average, and I'm British...Kale told me that you are very picky." He put the soup into a small bowl, "Ruan Ruan knows your taste, including how much salt and sugar to put, she can cook Say your favorite - open your mouth."

Gellert blinked furiously, and Albus held his bowl in thought for a moment, "Oh, they put a spell on you—Spell Stop."

"I'm not very hungry." Gellert moved his tongue, "You eat first."

"I'm not hungry either," said Albus.

Antonio smelled the meat, moved to the bowl, and sniffed with his nose. "You actually have a kitty," Albus stroked Antonio's back, "I'm honestly surprised."

"It's cute, isn't it?" Gellert muttered, the corners of his mouth burning as he tried not to tear the place apart again, "Picked it up."

"Newt told me—I'm afraid you don't even want to hear his name now," Albus smiled bitterly. "He asked me to convey his deepest apologies to you. He prayed for you and hoped that you will recover soon."

"That idiot," Gellert switched to German, "fool, idiot, lunatic—"

"Actually he was right, the manticore was a cub whose mother was killed by magic hunters, and it was captured and sold to the Ministry of Magic," said Albus, stirring the meat with a spoon. Soup, "It bit two of the warriors, the kid in Prussia wasn't badly hurt, but terrified. Six Aurors were wounded, one of them still lying in St. Mungo's. As for you, Gellert, you The one with the worst injuries. You saved everyone there, you killed a ferocious monster with your bare hands, and you're a foreign official... Your name is on the front page of the Daily Prophet, I Guess the Ministry of Magic is currently negotiating urgently, and you will soon receive a first-class Medal of the Order of Merlin."

"Are you dating?" Gellert asked. "That's all I care about."

Albus's hand paused for a moment, "No, I answered it."

"You answered 'not married' and 'not engaged'," Gellert turned his head, and the phoenix pressed against him warmly, making a few cries from time to time, "Not married, not engaged, but not necessarily not with someone else Dating, that's two different things."

"What about you?" Albus said.

"Me? Of course I don't have any!" Gellert raised his chin triumphantly, "I don't want anyone but you. I was bitten by that monster, and when I was about to die, I thought, don't care who you are with, Who was marked, who gave birth to... As long as you are happy, I am happy for you. But I am not dead, I woke up, and seeing your ears and hair, I thought, fuck his tolerance and generosity, I'd hate to see someone other than me lead you into church by the hand."

"You eat first," Albus sighed, "you can talk after you finish eating."

"Let me talk, I'm dying of suffocation." Gellert turned his head, his eyes glued to the red-haired wizard, "Why do you grow your hair long? Are you going on a date? God, How could I be so stupid... Sorry, Albus, I shouldn't have said that before Christmas. Are you mad at me for lying here? You didn't give me anything for Christmas! Well, yes My fault, but—”

"Stop." Albus said helplessly, "the corner of your mouth is bleeding." He put down the bowl, tore off a small piece of cotton, said a spell, and stuck it to the corner of Gellert's injured mouth, then bowed his head... a The cold kiss fell on the patient's left cheek like snowflakes.

"Can we eat?" he said, his earlobes glowing bright red in the setting sun.

Gellert breathlessly uttered a few broken syllables, "...to the right."
