Chapter 144 Nimbus Boy Percy
"Whose owl is so incompetent in the middle of the night!"
Andrew cursed and got up to open the window - he got up early enough, but this night owl was earlier than him!
Feeling a little annoyed from getting up, he casually added a handful of owl food, and then handed it to the table in a daze. Only then did he realize that this owl was familiar to him - it was Percy's Hermes.
The little guy looked so anxious that he didn't even bother to eat owl food, so he jumped on one foot to show Andrew the foot with the letter tied to it.
"Okay, okay, in such a hurry, Percy is..."
He rubbed his face, unwrapped the letter, and began to read.
…
Andrew covered his face and tried not to laugh out loud. The drowsiness and depression of these days disappeared.
'You have to bear it, Andrew. Although the owl won't bring back the emotions, what if it is particularly psychic? ’
He suppressed his laughter and wrote a reply note, tied it to Hermes and asked him to take it back, and then he started laughing wildly for two minutes.
It was true that it took him five minutes to choose a hotel - the hospital still used it after all.
Well, it’s true that it’s close to the zoo, but it’s also close to the hospital!
Simply put, Percy is in the hospital.
Although he still didn't know the hospitalization process and the extent of his injuries, it didn't affect Andrew's laughter at all - the handwriting was Percy's handwriting, which was enough for him to start laughing at ease.
'I don't know if I should break my arm or my leg...'
Andrew thought happily and began to pack his clothes, preparing to ask Professor McGonagall for leave and go to the school hospital to bring some medicine.
There's nothing urgent to do in the office, so it's okay to leave a note with the professor, but it's a bit troublesome to get the medicine - but Professor Adams should get up, and it might be faster to just explain it to him and let him find it.
Just as he said, Andrew quickly blocked Professor Adams and then put forward his needs.
"Potion?"
"It is indeed a problem. Madam Pomfrey is not here, so I have to take it myself."
"what would you like?"
"A fall injury to an arm or leg, a possible firearm—a penetrating injury or a foreign object entering the body? Possible poisoning?"
"It's a bit messy, but those of us who study herbal medicine know a little bit about potions."
Adams shrugged his shoulders, took out the corresponding potion from Madam Pomfrey's medicine cabinet and handed it to Andrew.
"Professor, how much do these potions cost?"
"Treatment on campus is free, as is medicine."
"This is taken out of school. If I had an outside purchasing channel, I would buy it from outside. It's different. You have to leave a good note."
Andrew wouldn't dare to take away so many potions at once - to put it bluntly, it looked like he was reselling the school's potions.
Galleons are a pain in the ass... ahem, it's the user who pays the bill anyway, so Percy will definitely pay the bill.
"This is difficult... Let me think about it... I have done similar bills... Three Galleons, fine potions are still relatively expensive, and they are too cheap. The Potions Office can't justify it... I'm the one selling it to you, I Just leave a note here.”
'If it weren't for...ahem, I would specialize in researching and selling magic potions. The price is sky-high with discounts...'
The potions at the campus hospital are definitely more effective than those outside, and the efficacy is definitely worth the price - a broken leg will heal in two days, so what kind of bicycle do you need?
Bring the medicine, ask for leave from Hagrid, then go to Hogsmeade and use Floo powder to London and transfer to the subway.
After buying some oranges at the entrance of the hospital (a special trip), Andrew came to the hospital according to the address written by the owl.
"Good morning, Percy. Knowing that you can't move around, I bought some oranges to watch you."
After seeing Percy, Andrew greeted him warmly and took a look at the injury - as expected, his leg was broken.
But it doesn't look like a firearm injury...
"Oranges are pretty good too, the point is..."
Percy stared at Andrew with questioning eyes.
Of course it's a life-saving potion, it's just a broken leg. He has been lying down since last night, and his leg is still covered with the so-called plaster, and he can't move!
"Who dares to let you use this kind of place..."
Andrew lowered his voice, "If your leg gets better this afternoon, people from the Ministry of Magic will have to come over and work overtime in the evening."
"Then first find a way to get me back to the rental house..."
"And then let the people in the hotel exclaim the existence of God? Come back with a lame man in the morning and skip out in the evening?"
Andrew sat down and said, "Don't be impatient. Let's talk about it first. How did you get injured and get caught? Is the other party's father very angry?"
"Stick or gun? It's the Muggle wand I used last time."
"No, I just got hurt accidentally!" Percy was a little anxious.
"Accidentally broke your leg? Are you dating a fire dragon?"
But this sentence did not resonate, and Andrew only saw Percy winking desperately.
He turned back stiffly, and then saw his prefect carrying a thermal box...
'Gudu...'
"Hello, Penello-senpai."
Inspect housekeeping, improve discipline, and assist professors in managing the school—prefects.
Ridicule is ridicule, the county magistrate is not as good as taking charge now.
"Hello, classmate Taylor."
She looked at Andrew's box carefully, "Excuse me, did you bring the potion?"
Percy, you boy?
Andrew stared at Percy from the corner of his eye.
"Thank you for taking care of Hermes, but the hospital here doesn't let owls in."
Which regular hospital allows owls to come in and out? Do you think this is a school hospital?
No, reply...the person who brought Percy to the hospital...
This kid...
"Let's find a place to live first and treat it with magic potion, Percy."
Penelo is calmer than Andrew thought - but that's normal. After all, after studying for so long, he has long been accustomed to such minor injuries.
So, Percy, who was lame and on crutches, was discharged from the hospital amidst the strong opposition of the doctor, and lived in a hotel rented by Andrew.
But Penello watched Percy take the medicine and hurried away, leaving Andrew and Percy behind.
"Can you tell me now? How did it break?"
"When I went to her house, her father came back, and then...I got anxious and climbed through the window..."
Percy didn't want to answer at first, but after Andrew made the assumption that was smashed by his angry old father with a stick, he had to reveal the reason in shame...
"Then, how did it come about?"
"I felt my leg was injured at that time, but I didn't dare to call... Penelo sneaked down and took a taxi to take me to the hospital."
No need for angry old father to knock, bad reviews...
"How have you been during this time?"
"Zoo, movies, video games, we even sneaked into a bar and went to a water park..."
Percy's memories were full of memories, which made Andrew feel that it was unfair for this kid to break his leg.
Of course, Percy was extremely happy and sad - in the evening, Percy, whose leg was almost healed, received the sad news that he had to go home or go back to school.
Because Penello's cooking was finally exposed, the angry old father finally determined that a pig was eyeing his cabbage, and patrolled the house for a long time with a wooden stick.
"It's time for me to preview the contents of the new semester, but I haven't moved at all!"
Penello looked at Percy with a bit of complaint.
"Me neither..."
The two students who had been happily dating for half the summer finally remembered that they had to take advanced classes at the beginning of school, and they were both a little panicked.
"I have to go back to school to review... I won't go home. The school's books are relatively complete, and I won't be disturbed by Fred and the others..."
After hesitating for a while, Percy finally chose to return to school and reluctantly said goodbye to Penello for a long time.
"Let's go...Andrew."
"Don't worry, here's the potion bill..."
"This is the time you need to make up for your duty days after I take leave..."
"Okay, okay..."
Percy agreed wholeheartedly.
"Wait a minute, the bill is fine, why is the duty time so different?"
The substitute duty time is scheduled until the beginning of school!
"It's calculated from the day you asked for leave and left school."
Andrew was full of resentment - he came to see Little Red Hair's broken leg, but why was he fed!
