Chapter 978

"Who said Hermione and Luna quarreled!"

"Didn't you say that?"

"I just said that Hermione and Luna seemed to argue about Maka last night - don't talk about the difference between 'argument' and 'quarrel'. Did you ignore the word 'as if' I said?"

Ginny trotted down the corridor, first angry at Harry and Ron, then turned her head and apologized to Marca:

"Sorry, Marca, I shouldn't have said something superfluous to these two guys..."

"Well, it's all right. Put them aside in advance," Marca looked back and forth at Harry, them and Ginny. She was confused. "Ginny, can you tell me what Luna said to you?"

Seeing that they seemed to have made a big misunderstanding, Ron and Harry closed their mouths and stood aside. After hearing Maka's words, Ginny immediately recalled:

"In fact, Luna doesn't say much... You know, she seldom talks about such things with others. I remember she mentioned that Hermione found her last night and wanted her to persuade you not to work so hard for us. But Luna didn't think so -"

"Oh?" Marca nodded and motioned Ginny to go on.

"Well, Luna doesn't think it's all for us," Ginny said. "She said that the reason why you can walk faster than each of us is just because you're constantly looking for something. She also said that she occasionally finds Maka you... Very lonely."

"Very lonely"

Maka was really surprised this time.

Even he himself was stunned for a while before he reflected the meaning of this sentence "loneliness".

"Yes, Luna said so." Ginny nodded. "Although I don't quite understand her meaning, in fact, sometimes I can feel that you seem to have a kind of relationship with all of us..."

"What is there?"

Maka then asked, but she didn't finish. She just looked at Maka and blinked gently.

"I... don't know what to say."

Ginny really doesn't know what to say? No, she just couldn't say "there is a sense of distance" in front of Marca.

But even if she didn't say it, Maka vaguely felt the general meaning she wanted to express.

"All right!" she smiled in a more or less complicated mood, and Maka nodded. "Then what? Did Hermione say anything after that? Did Luna mention it?"

Ginny shook her head when she heard the speech.

"No," she said. "Luna didn't say much. Just looking at her appearance, I don't think the argument between her and Hermione has developed into a too unpleasant situation... Hermione was in a normal state this morning."

"Well, thank you for telling me this. After that, I'll go straight to them and find out more."

Marca smiled at her again, then finally tilted her eyes and focused on Harry and Ron.

"As for you two... Although I'm very happy with what you said just now, it's not good to spread rumors everywhere for me! Listen, as soon as you see me, let me have a rest. I thought I should be in the coffin tomorrow!"

Staring at Harry and Ron, he suddenly spread his hand again and said:

"It seems that you have too few things to do to be so free... In order to enrich the rest of your Christmas holiday, you can stay with me as a volunteer in San mango until the beginning of school!"

"Then I'll stay and be their supervisor!"

"No way!" "no, no, okay -"

Looking at Ginny's rather hostile eyes, Ron immediately objected. As Ginny's boyfriend, although Harry also has a bad feeling, he can only protest gently to her due to his relationship.

Unfortunately, Ginny is so excited that she can't ignore their opinions?

However, Maka shrugged this time.

"Ginny, I have to say, I also think you'd better go home -"

"Maka, even you... Why?" Ginny said reluctantly. "Do you think I'm still young? I know it may not be safe here, but -"

"No, no, no," Marca interrupted her immediately. "It has nothing to do with age, just because... Remember? You and Luna are in fifth grade this year!"

"Oh - yes, that's right!" Harry and Ron shouted together. "Fifth grade! O.w.ls exam!"

At this time, Marca patted her on the shoulder with a smile on her face.

"Look, that's it."

……

"Harry, add another bottle of nourishment to Mr. Woods - be careful not to spill it like yesterday."

"Ron, you help Mr. Woods put more pillows and give me a roll of gauze."

While examining the next patient, Marca happily calls Ron and Harry. Occasionally, when he looked back, he could see two very hard faces, which made him feel that the boring life of St. mangori seemed to become less boring.

Listening to the two people answer and deliver things to the bed behind him, Maka shook her head and immediately leaned over and said:

"Cathy, how are you feeling today?"

"OK!"

Seeing that the little girl on the hospital bed was still like a little adult on weekdays, she couldn't help but show an interesting smile.

This is the youngest patient in St. mangori. At the age of eight, she always doesn't want others to see her as a child, and she seems to feel that she is old enough, so she often puts on this old-fashioned posture.

"Maka, I think I'm almost fine. Should I be able to leave the hospital?" she sat on the hospital bed with her pillow and pretended to be sorry. "Oh, I'll remember thinking of you when I go out."

"That's great. I knew you weren't such a mean girl."

While cooperating with her chatting, Maka gently lifted her right arm, then shook her finger to untie the bandages and gauze wrapped around her arm.

Suddenly, a layer of indistinct black flame appeared on little Cathy's arm without the obstruction of gauze, and there was no wind.

Just glancing at it casually, Marca took a new gauze from Ron's hand and changed it directly with theout any medicine.

"Unfortunately, although you are a very beautiful and knowledgeable lady, you still have to listen to me in terms of treatment." he said with a smile, "stay for another two days! If I can't see you tomorrow, I will cry."

"Oh -" little Cathy seemed helpless. "Well, for the sake of being a handsome man... Remember to bring me some sweet muffins at noon."

"It's my pleasure, beautiful Cathy."

Maka put her bandaged arm down again and patted the back of her hand.

"All right... Ron, Harry, let's go to the next room."

However, Maka, who had just left the ward, did not go on, but stood silently by the door. Even Ron and Harry didn't need him to say hello. They followed him silently pushing the cart and waiting by the wall.

However, compared with Maka's calm, their expressions seemed a little more gloomy.

A moment later, the door of the ward was opened again, and a slightly emaciated figure came out slowly.

"Mr. McLean..."

"Hello, Mrs. Pierce."

Maka turned around and nodded at the woman with his usual peaceful smile.

"Hello," Mrs. Pierce said slightly tired, "thank you, Mr. McLean... Cathy is really happy these days. Thanks to you, I really don't know how to thank you..."

"Just pay more for the treatment."

Even the tired Mrs. pierce couldn't help smiling at Maka's little joke. From her smile, we can see that the woman who has become increasingly thin and old recently should have been a very beautiful woman.

"Thank you," she said after expressing her gratitude again, "seriously, I've been worried about little Cathy... I don't even know what to do, really..."

Before saying a few words, she began to choke again. It can be seen that her heart has been crushed by some pressure.

In this regard, to be honest, Maka can't easily let her be relieved.

It's a matter of flesh and blood. Mrs. Pierce's sadness really makes people helpless. But anyway, he kept the smile on his face as much as possible.

Can't you just have a bitter face like Ron and Harry?

"Mrs. Pierce, don't think too much... Although I'm not a real therapist, I'll try my best. As long as there's a glimmer of hope, we shouldn't give up, but sometimes we need to relax ourselves..."

"You know, if you always frown, luck will not come to people who look too ugly."

After hearing Maka's words, the frown between her eyebrows was slightly relaxed.

"Yes, oh... I saw it in the bathroom this morning..." Pierce said humanely. "If it had been put before, I would never have imagined that I would be like this... I hope little Cathy wouldn't dislike her mother's ugliness."

"She's very sensible, isn't she? Even she thinks she's very mature -" after Maka said this, she stretched out her hand and motioned, "please! Mrs. Pierce, don't let Cathy wait too long!"

"OK, I'll trouble you today."

Looking at the back of Marca and Mrs. pierce walking side by side across the corridor, Harry and Ron looked at each other, then both sighed, pushed up the cart and hurried up.

"I don't know how long it will be..."

"Yes, poor little Cathy."
