St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies is located in the center of London, not far from the building Anton bought in Grimmauld Place. There is a direct subway train that makes a clanging noise.

The exterior of the hospital is an old-fashioned red brick department store called Taotao Co., Ltd., which looks like it has gone bankrupt.

St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries not only treats wizards, but also Muggles who have been harmed by magic. Of course, in the end they will all use the Amnesia Curse to cleanse their memories.

Except for the tea room and shop on the sixth floor, the remaining five floors are all different departments.

The Artifact Accident Department on the first floor usually treats crucible explosions, wand misfires, broom collisions, etc.

The fifth floor is the magic damage department.

The remaining two, three and four are respectively the ‘Biological Injury Department’, ‘Mysterious Infectious Diseases Department’, and ‘Pharmaceutical and Plant Poisoning Department’.

Anton looked at the sign above with some curiosity.

This division into families is particularly interesting. The damage caused by magical animals and magical plants each belong to the same family, which is normal.

But he has never been exposed to the 'miracle germ'.

Oh, they call this 'strange germs'. Judging from the department introduction, dragon pox, a terrible infectious disease, is ranked first.

This disease has killed many people that Anton knows, such as Draco's grandfather, the fourth Minister of Magic, Tina and Queenie's parents...

The disease is a bit like smallpox or chickenpox. The patient's skin will turn blue or sometimes purple, and sparks will be emitted from the nostrils when sneezing. The fatality rate is very high.

When Anton was taking a history of magic class, he heard Professor Binns talk about the impact of this infectious disease on the wizarding world. Later, Anton compared the history of the Muggle world and found that the period when the disease appeared was similar to the Muggle world.

The deaths were almost at the same time.

"You can go visit the patient, but not for too long. He needs to rest."

A witch wearing green wizard robes came over.

Anton turned his head, nodded with a smile, threw the paper cup into the trash can, walked along the corridor to the door of the ward, knocked, then opened the door and walked in.

Old Ronaldo was leaning against the pillow on the upturned hospital bed, his face a little pale. Seeing him come in, his nose twitched, "Oh~ you just drank coffee!"

Anton shrugged, "The hospital only provides coffee."

The coffee beans used to make coffee and the cocoa beans used to make chocolate seem to provide very good tonic effects for wizards, so these two types of food almost fill the entire wizard's diet.

"What a pity..." Old Ronaldo smacked his lips, "I can't drink coffee for a while."

"You can try drinking tea in the future. This is also a good choice. Excessive coffee is not necessarily good." Anton took out his wand and cast a 'clean up' on the fruit plate next to the hospital bed, saying 'Wish you a speedy recovery'

, you are a hero, we are proud of you - the Auror Office's playing card moved aside and took out an apple from it.

I took a hard bite, it was crispy and plump, the juice splashed in my mouth, and the natural and fresh apple aroma was rich.

When Anton was reading online articles in his previous life, he was crazy about a theme based on farming and food, in which the protagonist could use the mysterious spring water to grow fruits and grains with twice the taste.

The name was probably something like 'Portable Farm'. He couldn't remember it clearly. If he didn't use magic to review those memories, it seemed that some of the memories from his previous life were slowly starting to become blurry.

It should be the same as the fruit in the wizarding world, even if it looks like an ordinary fruit.

The special apple is actually a common potion ingredient that most people are unaware of.

"Oh~"

Old Ronaldo waved, "Forget it, I don't like drinking tea. I don't have that much free time to play with these delicate-looking and fragile tea sets."

Anton smiled and did not argue. He just raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes, after you are discharged from the hospital, you, the Auror hero, will probably be promoted and become one of those Ministry of Magic masters you often talked about before."

Old Ronaldo chuckled, beckoned Anton to come closer, glanced at the door, and then whispered, "They hope to weaken Mad-Eye's influence in the Auror office. You know, half of Azkaban

He caught all the criminals, so this is obviously an opportunity."

He gently patted his right foot that was hung up in a plaster, "And I have to wait for that guy Fudge to help me operate it."

"Of course, our boss, Director Scrimgeour, should also play a role. He doesn't want a second Mad-Eye to appear in the office. I should be transferred to other departments."

Anton blinked and looked at the old man in amazement, "You know everything very clearly."

Ronaldo Sr. pointed to his eyes with some pride, "I have been messing around all my life and have accomplished nothing. I just figured out these ways."

He sighed a little and looked at Anton with complicated eyes, "I am lucky to meet you. But you are not so lucky to meet me."

"If nothing else happens, I probably won't be able to be an Auror anymore."

"That is to say..."

Anton was stunned for a moment, "Can I still be your apprentice?"

Old Ronaldo was silent for a moment and shook his head, "Director Scrimgeour certainly doesn't want me to have any influence on the Aurors. He has always emphasized the independence of the Auror office."

Anton smacked his lips and said, "It's very interesting to study with you. I didn't expect the time to be so short."

Old Ronaldo also expressed many emotions, "Indeed, you can't expect other Aurors to have the same temper as me."

"Child, let me give you a piece of advice."

Anton's expression became solemn, and Ronaldo Sr. was obviously very pleased. This kid may seem a little out of place at times, but he can always tell when others are treating him well.

Well, old Ronaldo cares about this very much.

As Fudge said, the future is still long, and old Ronaldo will also have to make a living at the Ministry of Magic. Of course he wants the future support Fudge wants from Anton.

"Listen, don't get involved with Dumbledore's group, Mad-Eye, the Longbottom family, the Kinlais family..."

Old Ronaldo narrowed his eyes, "I'm not telling you what's right or wrong, nor am I trying to tell you what's wrong, but people from this faction have a lot of troubles."

Anton nodded thoughtfully.

"Then whose side should I side with so that I can drink coffee more relaxedly?"

Old Ronaldo smiled and pointed at Anton, "You kid."

As he spoke, a strange expression appeared on his face, "Remember, we are humble, mindless Ministry of Magic machines, loyally executing well-thought-out orders from our brains, nothing more."

"You mean..."

Anton took a hard bite of the apple, "Scrimgeour?"

Old Ronaldo chuckled, "Fuji is not afraid, Dumbledore is not afraid, and the mysterious man... Hehe, he is still not afraid!"

"Understood?"

"For such a stubborn person, standing beside you, if the sky falls, he can withstand it better than anyone else."

Anton gave a thumbs up in amazement, "Transparent!"

Old Ronaldo opened and closed his mouth and looked at Anton eating the apple with some envy, "What a pity, I am already old and can't eat apples anymore."

"Oh~, this is easy."

Anton took out his magic wand and waved it lightly. The apples on the fruit plate floated, and the fruit stems on it expanded in mid-air and turned into a smooth brown cup.

The pulp automatically split into eight pieces, which were pushed and rubbed against each other in mid-air. Mixed with the water floating in the water bottle on the table, it turned into juice and flowed into the cup.

The magic wand was stretched out slightly, and the slightly cold glass of juice was raised in front of old Ronaldo.

Ronaldo looked at him blankly, then looked at the juice in front of him, smelled the rich apple aroma, and swallowed.
