Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts
Chapter 193: Dudley wakes up and Dumbledore hides
Dudley slowly opened his eyes.
For a moment, Dudley thought he had reached heaven or hell, or traveled to another world.However, the familiar ceiling told him that the place he was now was the school doctor's office of Hogwarts.
Dudley wanted to speak, but found that his mouth was dry and his throat felt as if it had been burned.
"Dudley, you're awake?!" Harry's voice sounded from the side, "Ms. Pomfrey! Dudley is awake!"
After a while, Dudley felt someone gently lifting him up. As warm water was poured into his body, Dudley finally regained some vitality.
"Poor child, you finally woke up." It was Madam Pomfrey's kind voice, "I was worried that you would remain comatose until the holidays."
"I...I'm not dead yet?" Dudley found that his voice was as hoarse as a broken organ, "How long have I been unconscious?"
"I heard they said you've been in a coma for several weeks." Dudley turned his head and found Harry wearing a hospital gown, sitting on the bed next to him and looking at him with a smile: "Although I'm about the same, I'm just a little bit better. You should recover about two days early.”
"His condition is far different from yours!" Ms. Pomfrey said angrily: "You are just petrified. When he was sent in, his neck was broken and his heart was pierced. If it hadn't been for Dumbledore If you insist that you can still be saved, I almost plan to help you take care of your funeral."
Dudley touched his neck and chest. The wound on his chest seemed to have healed, but there was still a dull pain in his neck.
"Professor Dumbledore is back?" Dudley struggled to leave the hospital bed: "What happened next, and what happened in the Chamber of Secrets..."
"Don't move! I've been in a coma for several weeks, and nothing is as important as recuperating my body!" Madam Pomfrey pressed Dudley back on the bed without any doubt, "You take a rest first, I'll let the kitchen cook something for you later. Food, let’s talk about it later.”
Dudley also found that his muscles all over his body could not work hard, so he had no choice but to obey Madam Pomfrey's words and lie down on the bed.
While Madam Pomfrey was leaving the ward, Dudley spoke to Harry who was in the bed next to him, wanting to know about his situation after being comatose.
But Harry shrugged and said helplessly: "I'm not sure, as I said just now, I only recovered two days ago, and we seem to be prohibited from visiting, and Ron and Hermione can only You have to leave as soon as you can put down the visiting gifts and blessing cards.”
Although I am somewhat worried, since I am safe and sound, it means that the battle in the mental space is not my temporary fantasy.Moreover, Dumbledore's return also reassured him.
After some time, Madam Pomfrey brought a delicious dinner.After a voracious meal, Dudley felt that his body had recovered a lot. It seemed that as a dragonborn, his recovery ability was quite strong.
"Okay, you two should have a good rest first." Seeing Dudley's appetite, Ms. Pomfrey nodded with satisfaction: "Professor Dumbledore said that you two don't have to go to class for the time being. Let’s recover from our injuries first.”
"But Madam Pomfrey, I was just petrified. There is no problem for a long time." Harry said dissatisfiedly: "Dudley may have to lie down for a few more days, but I can already be discharged from the hospital."
"No! OK!" Ms. Pomfrey said categorically: "Professor Dumbledore gave a special order. Neither of you are allowed to leave the ward without his permission!"
Hearing Madam Pomfrey's words, Dudley felt a little doubt in his heart.He remembered that in the original work, Hermione was discharged from the hospital quickly without any sequelae after being de-petrified.
In the current situation, Dudley, who had just woken up, was fine, but Harry was not allowed to leave even though he could already leave.
This looks like a deliberate attempt to restrict their movements.
But Dudley didn't show his doubts and pretended to be obedient, lying on the bed honestly.
As the sky gradually darkened and towards evening, Madam Pomfrey left the ward, as if she was going to eat.Dudley immediately took the opportunity to lift the quilt and jumped out of bed nimbly.
"Dudley, do you want to sneak out?" Harry lowered his voice and said excitedly: "Count me in. I don't know how long I will stay here. I have long wanted to find Ron and Hermione."
Dudley nodded, and the two cousins quietly left the hospital bed and walked to the door of the ward.But through the dim light in the corridor, Dudley seemed to see someone sitting outside the door.
"It's Filch. I was caught by him yesterday when I just wanted to sneak out." Harry whispered: "However, Ron and Hermione's visiting gifts can help us avoid his surveillance."
Harry showed Dudley the invisibility cloak in his hand, so the two cousins put on the invisibility cloak and carefully left the ward.
"We have to come back early, otherwise Madam Pomfrey will definitely lose her temper again." Harry said softly, "Let's go to the restaurant, they should all be there at this time."
Along the way, Dudley and Harry met many students, but no one noticed them.And seeing the students talking and laughing, it can be judged that the impact of Dumbledore's leaving the school has been eliminated.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Dudley quickly found Ron and Hermione, and they seemed to be sitting with Fleur, discussing something.
"So Madam Pomfrey still doesn't allow us to visit Dudley and Harry?" Fleur said solemnly: "Even if Harry has been released from petrification..."
"It seems to be Professor Dumbledore's intention." Hermione said solemnly: "Maybe he is worried that someone will harm them... After all, they are important witnesses."
"It's also possible that he didn't want us to tell Dudley the news so quickly." Ron also looked gloomy: "When Fudge came over that day, I thought Draco Malfoy would be caught and taken to Azkaban to accompany him. His father is in jail, I didn’t expect that he was——”
"Yes, Dudley has always regarded that girl very seriously. If he knew this news, he would definitely go berserk." Fleur sighed and said faintly: "For Pansy, Dudley might do anything... ....”
"What happened Pansy?!"
Dudley couldn't help but got out from under the invisibility cloak and looked at Fleur with a serious face. Harry tried to pull him but failed, so he had to put away the invisibility cloak with a wry smile.
"Dudley?! Are you awake already?" Fleur was startled by Dudley's sudden appearance, and then a look of joy appeared on her pretty face, "That's great, but how could you... ..."
"Let's put this aside, what did you say happened to Pansy just now?!" Dudley asked anxiously.
"Dudley, I can tell you, but you must stay calm first." Fleur put away her smile and looked at Dudley seriously, "Pansy was arrested by Fudge and sent to Azkaban a week ago - on charges of abuse. The Unforgivable Curse!"
For a moment, Dudley thought he had reached heaven or hell, or traveled to another world.However, the familiar ceiling told him that the place he was now was the school doctor's office of Hogwarts.
Dudley wanted to speak, but found that his mouth was dry and his throat felt as if it had been burned.
