Chapter 40 Strange Ceiling

In the Hogwarts infirmary, bright sunlight shone on the snow-white bed. Mike, who was lying on the bed, frowned and kept replaying the scene of the green light hitting him in his mind. He felt that his head was about to explode with pain. Mike

finally couldn't stand the pain anymore. He hugged his head with both hands and sat up suddenly from the bed. It would have been fine if he didn't sit up. When he sat up, Mike felt a sharp pain in his chest.

"Ah!"

Mike couldn't help but scream.

Hearing Mike's painful roar, Madam Pomfret hurried in from the front room.

"Merlin, you're finally awake!"

Attracted by the voice, Mike looked in the direction of the voice.

Madam Pomfret's fat face was looking at him with concern.

"How do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Madam Pomfret asked.

"My head hurts so badly! And my chest too!"

"Then there's nothing wrong. It's normal to have a chest ache. You broke three ribs, kid." Madam Pomfret stroked Mike's forehead with her hand. "As for the headache, it might be because of the Kedavra curse."

"Kedavra curse?"

"Yes, I can't believe you survived the Avada Kedavra curse with just an old-fashioned "anti-Kedavra curse garment". You know, the probability of this happening is very small."

After that, Madam Pomfret took out a bottle of blue liquid and a bottle of purple liquid from a cabinet and poured them into a transparent cup. The two liquids in the transparent cup mixed to form a strange green color in an extremely unscientific way.

"Come on, drink this and you'll feel better." Madam Pomfret brought the cup to Mike's mouth.

Mike looked at the cup of green unknown liquid in front of him that was still bubbling with strange bubbles, and he retched. Now when he sees something green, he will think of the green light in the Forbidden Forest.

Seeing that Mike couldn't drink it, Madam Pomfret stretched out her hand to pry open Mike's mouth and poured the whole cup of green liquid into Mike's mouth.

Mike felt a warm current flowing down his throat to his stomach, and after circling around his stomach, it rushed straight to his brain, and then he lost consciousness again.

When Mike woke up again, it was dark. It must be said that although Madam Pomfret's medicine didn't look very good, the effect was really good. Now Mike's head didn't hurt as much as before.

Mike didn't get up immediately, but slowly moved his body from his fingers to confirm his physical condition.

After checking himself, Mike breathed a sigh of relief. Madam Pomfret didn't lie to him. There were no other adverse reactions except for the dull pain in his chest and head.

"Good evening, Mike."

Mike was startled and hurriedly looked at the source of the sound. He didn't even notice that there were other people in the room.

"Relax, would you like some Fizzy Bee Candy?" Dumbledore made a gesture to Mike to relax, and handed the candy in his other hand to Mike, "Sweets are a magical potion, they always make people happy. I heard that Muggles have studied the principle behind it, it seems to stimulate nerves or something."

"Professor Dumbledore, why are you here?" Mike took the candy handed over by Dumbledore and said in a daze.

"I want to talk to you about what happened in the Forbidden Forest that night." Dumbledore found a chair and sat down.

"You've been unconscious for three days, and everyone was worried about you. After all, not everyone can survive being hit by the Killing Curse, even if you were wearing an 'Anti-Killing Curse Cloth' at the time. You're lucky, Mike, you survived almost unscathed."

"It was Hagrid who saved you. I have to say that you learned the Fire Curse very well. The power is very strong, and it almost set fire to one-ninth of the Forbidden Forest. After Hagrid discovered that the Forbidden Forest was on fire, he went in your direction, and eventually met little Malfoy on the road, and finally found you under the guidance of little Malfoy."

"It was really dangerous at the time. You were in a sea of ​​fire, and Hagrid used the Purification Curse all the way to find you. Fortunately, there were no trees in your area, otherwise I'm afraid you would have been burned to death. Oh! By the way. Please keep the fact that Hagrid can use magic a secret. His wand was cut off in an accident that year, and the Ministry of Magic sentenced him to a lifetime in which he cannot use magic."

"At the same time, you are also very brave. Even in such a dangerous situation, you can stand up to protect your classmates and fight against unknown dangers. Mr. Malfoy told us that you chose to let him go first to protect him, and you stayed alone to fight against the monster with a height of eight meters and a waist of eight meters."

Hearing this, Mike couldn't sit still. He spread his hands and raised his voice and said, "What! That coward told you that? It was obviously that damn coward who left me alone and ran away! I was thinking of taking him with me at that time!"

Seeing Mike's frustrated look, Dumbledore smiled, and his smile was very bright. The bright moonlight from the window reflected on his white robe and beard, making him look like he was glowing.

"Anyway, the result is still good, isn't it?" Dumbledore blinked at Mike.

"And that monster, he is not a big square with a height of eight meters and a waist! He is a human!" Mike complained with lingering interest.

Hearing Mike talking about the monster, Dumbledore's eyes behind the glasses flashed a glimmer of success.

"Is that a human? Can you describe it to me?"

"The man is about 1.78 meters tall, of medium build, a man." Mike realized that he was being tricked by Dumbledore and said perfunctorily.

Dumbledore waited for a while, and when he saw that Mike had no intention of continuing, he asked, "What else?"

"What else? It was pitch black at the time, and he was wearing a hood, so I didn't see what he looked like at all." Mike once again used his signature move, spreading his hands and shrugged his shoulders, "Also, he lowered his voice, so I couldn't tell his real voice."

After listening to Mike's description, Dumbledore fell silent, and he lowered his head as if thinking about something.

After a while, he seemed to have thought of something. He raised his head and asked, "What was he doing when you found him?"

"I believe that coward Malfoy should have already answered this question for you. If you still need confirmation, I can answer you again. The man was lying on the unicorn and biting it."

"I see. Thank you very much for your information, Mike." Dumbledore didn't care about Mike's attitude at all. He stood up and prepared to leave. "I should go, Mike. You should have a good rest. Maybe you should eat that candy before going to sleep, let your mouth be filled with sweetness and then slowly fall asleep. That's what I like to do most."

"Oh, by the way." Dumbledore walked to the door and suddenly turned around and said, "Because of your bravery and wisdom, Ravenclaw gets 100 points."

After saying that, he winked at Mike mischievously, and finally disappeared into the darkness in Mike's speechless eyes.
