Time stopped for James.

When James' younger brother Albus has become a centenarian, the elder brother he saw in his eyes is still a black-haired boy.

Because of having endless time, it is also doomed to lose that must be accepted.

After James had seen the lives of his family and friends disappear one by one, he had to watch his brother die.

—and he was still so young.

Even though James had already made such psychological preparations in his heart, when he actually faced this matter, he still felt unavoidable heaviness and depression, as if the pain of drowning had been obliterating him all the time.

"Time is a wonderful thing, isn't it?"

Albus looked at James and smiled, his face so old and wrinkled, his voice deep and gentle.

James didn't smile, the boy's face was extremely solemn, and his downcast eyes were dim.

"James, let me tell you a secret. Didn't you always want to know where I got the key to your magical diary?"

Albus stretched out his hand, which had experienced many vicissitudes, and stuffed something into James' palm.

James spread out his palms, looked at the copper-gold objects in his palms, and couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock, "This is—"

Albus nodded, confirming James' guess, "Yes, this is the Time-Turner."

James was surprised, because the Time Converter had been destroyed a long time ago, and he had no idea that his younger brother still had an intact Time Converter hidden in his hand.

And this time-turner was actually kept a secret by Albus, and it was not revealed to James until this time.

"Albus, in order to help me find the key, you went back and took the key." James suddenly understood at this moment, "Is it because of this that I have been unable to find it? "

Albus chuckled and did not respond, the wrinkles at the corners of the old man's eyes revealed the vicissitudes of time.

"James, since I have the Time-Turner, there have been many doubts in my mind." Albus said softly, "I went back in time and took your key, does it mean that there should be The keys in this world have completely disappeared during these years, and then suddenly appeared in the future. If I took the key back and gave it to you earlier, would you still receive the key from the birthday gift in the future and get two Take the same key."

James was silent. He looked down at the Time-Turner in his hand, and his mind was equally confused.

"It's complicated, isn't it?" Albus continued with a smile, "With a time converter, the present me can go back to the past, and the future me can also go back to the past. Was it in a certain time point in the past, I have been there in many different time periods, so are there many mes existing in this world at the same time?"

"After I used the Time-Turner, I had more and more problems to think about." Albus sighed softly, with memories in his eyes, "I also often think, if the past is changed by me If so, will everything change in the future. I will feel a kind of fear of time in my heart, because I know that changing one thing in the past may change a person's life, and even completely change the future."

"James, a long time ago, when you first went to see Loki and was seriously injured, I was already mentally prepared."

Albus recalled that when James was 17 years old, he fell into a coma after using extremely complex space magic to meet Loki, and then in St. Mungo's hospital bed, in front of their eyes, was pierced by bullets in three places Scenes where the body is bleeding profusely.

"If you do die there, I'll go back and change everything."

Albus said in a deep voice, at that time no one knew the firm thought in Albus's heart.

"I won't let you die, James, that was all I had in mind."

"If you die there, I will go back in time and take your diary away."

"If you don't have that magic diary, you won't know Loki anymore, and you won't die because of Loki."

James took a deep breath, it never occurred to him that Albus would have such an idea at the time.

"But fortunately, James, you survived. Later, I thought about my thoughts at that time. Is this really good?" Albus asked as if muttering to himself, "If you have never met Loki , James, can you really be happy? James, can you find the path you really want here? Is this kind of future what you want, James? "

No one knows what James' future would have been if he hadn't met Loki.

Albus fixedly stared at James who was stunned in front of him, "James, I stopped thinking about the time converter. The past and the future seem to be under control, but in fact they are still No one can control it."

"There is no beginning to all this, and no end in sight."

"James, it's fate."

There can be countless timelines in this world, but fate still leads you to the only path.

The one with Loki in the future.

This was doomed from the start.

"After Scorpius died, I realized that this time-turner can be purely memory, like a memory container that stores all the past we have." Albus looked at the time in James' hand Converter, with a reminiscing smile in the corner of his eyes, "In fact, I often wear your invisibility cloak, go back to a long time ago, and look at me and Scorpius when I was young."

Those bright and splendid pasts appeared so vividly and clearly before his eyes.

Everything was so within reach, it moved him deeply.

"I give you this Time-Turner, Jaime."

Albus originally wanted to keep the Time-Turner a secret and leave with him when he died.

But now, he decided to give the time-turner to James.

"In it, the past of all of us is hidden."

James' pupils tightened, and the fingers holding the Time-Turner trembled slightly.

The tears in the black-haired boy's eyes couldn't stop flowing out of his eyes at this moment, sliding down his fair and young cheeks.

"James, you won't lose any time, and you won't lose us."

"We will live in this memory forever."

The white-haired old man smiled and looked at the black-haired boy with red eyes, and gently placed his vicissitudes of life on James's hand, with a soothing force, making him hold the time-turner tightly in his hand, as if nothing was wrong. will pass from the hand of the boy.

"James, come back when you miss us."

"Don't feel alone."

Albus closed his eyes slowly, and the calm smile on the wrinkled lips still made people feel warm and beautiful.

"Remember, we will always love you."
