Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

After Zhang Xu finished his lunch, his grandfather and father left. [ＷＷ.SuiMеng.lā

In their family's parlance, it's fine as long as the person wakes up. Since he's not a child anymore, he doesn't need to stay with him like this.

This is a habit developed during the years when Zhang Xu's father was a soldier. If there is no news from the front line, it is good news, and if it is not the worst news, it is good news.

So when Zhang Xu's situation was not the worst, the family members were relieved.

After the news spread that Zhang Xu had woken up, people came to visit him in an endless stream.

Among the people who came to visit Zhang Xu, in addition to the students who were rescued by Zhang Xu on the train that day, there were also many wizards who came here after reading the newspapers.

On the second day of the incident, the Daily Prophet devoted an entire page to a detailed report on Zhang Xu's exchange of hostages under the Cruciatus Curse. There was a large box of condolence letters sent to St. Mungo's for Zhang Xu that day. After the news that Zhang Xu woke up today spread in St. Mungo's, many people came to express their condolences to him.

Later, Zhang Xu, who was so annoyed, simply asked Zhang Qiu to hang a "Do Not Disturb" sign outside the wards the next day.

Only now did Zhang Xu have time to study the newspapers of the past few days.

After letting the last hostage leave, Zhang Xu couldn't bear it anymore and fainted. When he woke up, too many people came to express condolences, and everyone was afraid that he would be upset, so they didn't say much, so he didn't know how things would develop later. I could understand it well. He only arrived in bits and pieces and heard from people around him that Dumbledore arrived with a large army not long after he fainted. Then Voldemort and Dumbledore had a fight in front of everyone, and Dumbledore was Winning one move.

That's all Zhang Xu has learned so far, and what Zhang Qiu said is basically the same.

"Aren't you bored staying here with me all day?" Zhang Xu asked Zhang Qiu while reading the newspaper.

"The Ministry of Magic is in chaos now," Zhang Qiu said. "My parents go to the Ministry early in the morning to work and don't come back until late at night. Cedric is even worse. He has been living in the Ministry for several days. ”

"Diagon Alley was severely damaged this time, and more than half of the shops are still open."

"So you're here to chat with potential recipients of the First Class Order of Merlin?" Zhang Xu said while looking at the newspaper.

What Zhang Xu was holding was today's "Daily Prophet". The newspaper was seriously discussing the possibility of awarding Zhang Xu the Order of Merlin.

It can be seen from the report that Fudge, who announced that he will step down once the new Minister of Magic is confirmed, publicly stated that he will do his best to win the first-class Order of Merlin for Zhang Xu.

As a vested interest, Zhang Xu was too lazy to complain about Fudge's practice of looking for opportunities to restore his image at the last moment.

"Not only will you be awarded the First Class Medal of Sir Merlin, you will also have a high chance of appearing on the Chocolate Frog card."

The speaker was Percy, who walked into the ward with Cedric.

The "Do Not Disturb" sign hanging outside the door only blocks strangers, not acquaintances.

Seeing the two of them arriving, Zhang Xu stopped lying on the hospital bed and got out of bed to invite them to the living room outside.

"How come the new Assistant to the Minister of Magic and the new Director of the Auror Office have time to come to see me?" Zhang Xu asked the two of them curiously.

On the day after the incident, a Western reporter listed all Fudge's actions to whitewash peace in the past year in an article "Avada Kedavra Hits the Ministry of Magic" in the Daily Prophet, and concluded that Fudge should bear the main responsibility for this incident.

From that moment on, the countdown to Fudge's downfall began.

After a series of overt and covert fights in recent days, the new round of personnel changes in the Ministry of Magic has been finalized this morning. The news will not be made public until tomorrow's Daily Prophet, and at noon when Mrs. Weasley comes to deliver food So I told Zhang Xu all this news.

The Minister of Magic is represented by a hard-line faction, Scrimgeour, the former head of the Auror Office.

Then there were few changes in the heads of various departments in the Ministry of Magic, and Arthur Weasley was transferred to a newly formed department.

Cedric, the last assistant to the former Minister of Magic, remained in his original post. Who said his father was the director?

What is surprising is that the position of Director of the Auror Office that was vacated after Scrimgeour became Minister ended up falling to Percy.

Zhang Xu could imagine how a group of people were waiting to see Percy's joke. A newcomer who had only been in the job for a few years looked like he was going to cause a big mess when he was put in charge of a group of unruly Aurors.

So now that these two guys came to visit him, Zhang Xu felt something was wrong.

"The minister gave me half a day off," Cedric said. I had been busy at the ministry for several days.

"So you didn't go home and take a shower first, so you came here to find Qiu like this?" Zhang Xu pretended to be surprised.

Then Zhang Xu turned around and said to Zhang Qiu: "Just go out and play with him. I don't need anyone to take care of me now. Female students are not allowed to stay in college."

If Zhang Xu wasn't still sick at this moment, he would definitely be beaten.

"I'm here to find you." Cedric said to Zhang Xu: "I got the news from my father. It seems that many foreign dark wizards have come to the UK recently."

Zhang Xu was stunned for a moment and said, "What's this? After the mysterious man's high-profile appearance, did the dark wizards in Europe come to join him?"

Cedric obviously didn't know much about this matter and could only shake his head to express his ignorance.

"Then what's the matter with you?" Zhang Xu asked Percy.

"On behalf of the Auror Office, I am purchasing a large quantity of Iron Armor Charm amulets from you." Percy said straight to the point.

Over the years, the effects and reputation of the Iron Armor Curse amulets sold by Zhang Xu have been very good. These amulets became very popular after they were spread out from Hogwarts.

Zhang Xu thought for a while, he had other considerations in this regard, and then said to Percy: "I suggest you order relevant dark magic defense items from Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes. They have a lot of research in this area. It’s time.”

Upon hearing Zhang Xu's suggestion, Percy's expression became unnatural, while the other three people sitting aside were watching his joke.

As a result, Zhang Xu couldn't smile for long, and the smile on his face froze.

A witch wearing a pink dress walked into the ward, and Qiu Zhang, Cedric and Percy were driven away by her before they could speak.

As soon as they left the ward, Zhang Qiu and the three of them found several magic spells cast on the door of the ward.

At this moment, the ward door opposite Zhang Xu's ward opened, and Harry Potter was about to go out with the support of Ginny and Ron.

For a while, the six people stood there looking at each other, not knowing what to say.

Finally, Zhang Qiu asked Harry: "Harry, can you get out of bed? Where are you going?"

Harry pointed to Zhang Xu's ward opposite and said, "I was able to get out of bed this morning. The doctor told me to move around more. I want to go over and visit Zhang..."

Seeing the extremely strange expressions on the faces of the three people in front of them, they wisely shut up.

"He is receiving a very important guest now." Cedric said to Harry seriously.

"I think he will stay here for a few more days due to serious injuries, so you will still have time to visit him in the future." Percy followed.

"Professor Scarlet is here." Zhang Qiuyan said concisely.

Harry and the three of them nodded in understanding, and suddenly realized that the few people across from them didn't seem to be in the same world as themselves.
