Chapter 42 Becoming famous at Hogwarts

After finally coaxing Hermione and the others away, Mike, who wanted to take a good rest, became desperate. Everyone received the news that Mike had woken up, and began to come to see him in an endless stream.

Needless to say, there were people he knew such as Penello and Franklin, and there were even more people that Mike had never even met. These people all wanted to take a look at Mike, who managed to survive a life-killing curse that night.

Later, Mrs. Pomfrey couldn't stand it any longer. She shouted and drove away all the visitors, and forbade anyone to visit Mike on the grounds that the patient needed to rest. Only then did Mike calm down.

Mike let out a heavy breath and thanked Mrs. Pomfleur from the bottom of his heart.

The bed in the medical room was padded with extremely thick quilts, which made the entire bed very soft. Mike relaxed his body and felt as if he had sunk into the bed, extremely comfortable.

The quilt covering him had the unique smell of sunshine, which was very unscientific. Mike remembered that he had been covering himself with this quilt for no less than two days.

There is also a lavender-like scent on the quilt and pillows. The faint fragrance slowly penetrated into Mike's nose, and Mike's brows, which were tightened due to pain, gradually relaxed, and finally fell into sleep silently.

In the next few days, Mike's headache symptoms gradually improved. Mrs. Pomfleur said that the headache was due to the Death Curse, but Mike knew that the main reason for his headache was that he had used too much magic, which had damaged his spirit.

This kind of injury is not like the injury on his chest that can be restored to its original state with just a few doses of magic medicine. What it needs is rest. The green potion that Mrs. Pomfret gave Mike to drink before was actually a pain-relieving potion called "elm leaf", which had no therapeutic effect on his injuries.

It took a full month of lying in bed for Mike's injury to heal.

During this month, Mike's life was worse than death. All he could do every day was eat, sleep, and eat. Due to his mental injury, Mike was unable to cast magic at all, and even reading and reading newspapers was strictly prohibited by Mrs. Pomfleur.

When Mrs. Pomfrey announced that he could be discharged from the hospital, Mike had the urge to scream to the sky. He felt that if he continued to lie down, he would go crazy soon. It was too boring.

Pushing open the dilapidated wooden door of the infirmary, a black boy appeared in front of Mike. It was Franklin.

Mike was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that someone would pick him up at the door of the infirmary and leave the hospital. You should know that it was school time now.

Franklin stepped forward, gave Mike a big hug, and said softly: "Next time something like this happens, remember to take me with you."

Hearing this, Mike patted Franklin's back hard and replied: "Definitely!"

The two walked to the hall together, and Mike was obviously in a very good mood. He kept telling Franklin about his experience in the Forbidden Forest along the way. Of course, he exaggerated a little in some places.

Franklin was a very good listener and always had the right questions at the right time. This makes Mike feel extremely comfortable bragging.

When the two of them came to the hall chatting and laughing, it happened to be lunch time, and the little wizards were walking into the hall sporadically.

Mike originally thought that the topic about him would have cooled down after a month of silence. However, it turns out that Mike has lowered the status of the Forbidden Forest incident in the minds of these boring little wizards.

Almost the moment the two entered the hall, they attracted everyone's attention.

The timid little wizards only dared to hide in the distance and look curiously at Mike, while the bolder ones surrounded Mike directly. They surrounded Mike, their eyes were shining, and they were chattering without knowing what they were talking about.

Mike couldn't help but feel his scalp numb as he looked at the battle in front of him, and his headache, which had already healed, seemed to be aching faintly.

This was Franklin's moment of performance. He relied on his size advantage to force his way through the crowd, and took Mike out of the hall before there were more people.

After finally escaping to a remote corridor, Mike panted and held on to the wall and said, "What is going on? It's been a month. Are they crazy?"

Franklin on the side was even worse than Mike. He had just spent a lot of energy to clear the way for Mike, and now he was lying on the ground half-dead, with big beads of sweat on his face sliding down his skin to the floor.

"You don't know, this time you have become famous." Franklin replied after a moment, "About two o'clock that night, Dumbledore woke us all up, and we were gathered in the hall .Professor McGonagall changed a lot of sleeping bags for us to rest on."

"Dumbledore said that the Forbidden Forest has been invaded by a monster, and that monster may enter Hogwarts Castle. Although the professors said that there is no danger as long as everyone stays together, we were still scared."

"Later we discovered that the Forbidden Forest was on fire, and the flames almost lit up the entire sky. Professor Flitwick summoned some seventh-grade seniors to put out the fire, and then the fire was put out."

"We were all scared, and many of us couldn't sleep almost all night. It wasn't until the next morning that Dumbledore announced that the warning was all-clear, and at the same time told us about you."

"You became a hero! Mike!" Franklin grabbed Mike's shoulders excitedly, "Malfoy told us everything that happened that night! You are really amazing."

"I almost forgot to mention that Dumbledore gave Ravenclaw a full 100 points because of you! Our current house points have surpassed Slytherin and become the first place! There is not much time left in this school year. As expected, the Academy Cup will be ours!"

Mike didn't hear the last part of Franklin's words at all. He was already confused by the previous content. He didn't expect that Dumbledore would start such a big fight. To be honest, Mike felt a little flattered.

But according to the content of his previous conversation with Dumbledore, Quirrell or Voldemort was not caught that night. That means the plot will continue to develop as in the original work.

What Mike fears most is that the plot of the original work will collapse.

As a time traveler, his biggest advantage is his familiarity with the plot. If Quirrell is caught in advance and the plot collapses, all his plans for the future will be in vain.

But Mike had watched a lot of science fiction movies in his previous life, and he also had some knowledge about time travel. He clearly knew that the longer he stayed in this world, the greater the damage to the original plot would be. All this will happen regardless of whether you are involved in the plot or not. This is the butterfly effect.

"At least before the plot gets completely out of control, I must make good use of my prophetic advantage and improve my strength as much as possible!" Mike lowered his head and murmured in a voice so soft that others could hardly hear it.
