"Hi, we finally meet."

Nelson sat upright on the chair that Tom took out of his pocket, with his hands resting on the armrests to support his chin. Although he looked pale, his gaze over Ivy's shoulders to the Expo was full of enthusiasm.

This posture resembling Dumbledore is not for putting on airs or having a concave shape, it is because he has just woken up from a coma and finally felt the pain sweeping his body like a tide. This is the only posture that does not hurt so much. , Compared with Miss Joy, Tom's craftsmanship was outrageously rough. Baixian and other healing potions were all poured into Nelson's mouth as if they were free of money, no matter whether it was written in the original instructions for external use or internal use.

Under the accumulation of excessive drug effects, Nelson could only feel the fiery pain sweeping from the internal organs to the limbs, and stretched into an unbearable itching on his face covered with wounds. Even if he tried to forget the pain, it was useless, because the injured soul could is the big head of pain.

He seems to have seen Tom use a vise to open his mouth and pour potion into it with a bucket, complaining while pouring. He can only suppress the pain and observe the battle situation at the Expo Park.

After looking around for a long time, he saw the static crowd in the distance start to rush towards the opposite side, and the pain on his body was relieved a lot. He finally showed a gratified smile, finally withdrew his eyes from the fierce battle, and glanced at the person standing beside him. The three smiled apologetically, "I'm really sorry, I can't stand up to greet you, and I can't shake hands with you to say hello."

"You knew me before," Ivy spread his hands, "Since this is the case, I don't need to make too many secrets."

"I don't know you," Nelson shook his head slightly, "I just know who you are, Mr. Ivy."

"Does it make any difference?"

"Of course, there's a big difference," Nelson's lips barely moved in order to avoid touching the wound on his face, his voice was so weak that even a slight breeze could hardly hear him, but the air around him was very respectful , even if the whole of Paris is involved in the turmoil that can subvert the times, the highest place is still calm, "As long as you live in this world, anyone will leave traces, and others can understand him through these traces, Whether it's birth records, medical records, marriage letters left in the church, or even your tombstone, sir, it doesn't mean I know you, everyone's soul has a unique set of logic, and I can't see through it I know your soul through those traces, so I think we know each other now, even on the first day you came to Paris, I already know where you live... It is an honor to know you, sir."

Nelson was immersed in joy, and he even talked more, even a little too much.

"You don't have to threaten me like this, I won't do anything, let alone take advantage of others," Ivy raised his head to look at the sky, he could always feel keenly that something was always watching him, he lowered his head, slowly Huan said, "And, have you really seen anything from this so-called trace?"

Nelson's pupils tightened, and his worries were rightly said by Ivey. In fact, in so many days in Paris, the present moment is his most dangerous moment. Everyone perfectly embedded in his script, even Grinder Waugh, but only this one, he never had a place for him in the repertoire, he didn't know if Ivy was friend or foe, he didn't even know if his level of magic was high or low - since coming to Paris, Ivey has never used magic, as if he can't remember what magic is at all, even if he is visiting a distant scenic spot, he prefers to walk, until just now, when he saved two people in succession. For the first time, he showed his own magic that is not weak - what's even more bizarre is that even though Nelson was so swearing when he said "traces of existence", judging from the traces he found, the person standing opposite is simply a The Muggle, who had been dead for an unknown amount of time, even had a white skeleton lying in his grave.

If Grindelwald values ​​Nelson because he is a person without a future, then Nelson fears Ivy because he is a person without a past-he bears the name of a dead person and continues his story, But who he is is a question no one can answer.

But in order to avoid this uninvited guest from spoiling the situation, Nelson still decided to hold him back personally. The mayflies silently around had already lighted up their eyes quietly. He still smiled and spread his hands to Ivy in a graceful manner.

"Of course I'm not worried, sir, thank you for saving Jin from there, and thank you for bringing my senior sister out of the siege," Nelson nodded slightly, "Of course, I also have to thank you for helping Hogwarts contribution to biodiversity.”

"Are you talking about that spider egg? Since the older child likes it, there is nothing wrong with giving it to him. You must know that there are too many things that can be taken away from the happy home a few years ago," Ivy picked. Eyebrows, Jokunda, who was standing behind Nelson and holding Jin's little hand, widened his eyes when he heard the harsh familiar place name in his words, and looked at his face in disbelief. Ivy didn't notice Jokunda's Strange, just looked at Nelson with a smile, and continued, "Let me think... the only place where you might know me is Knockturn Alley, but obviously, that big kid is much taller than you , I thought, you are not the kind of wizard who can easily read other people's memories."

"I really don't like prying into other people's privacy, sir," Nelson said, leaning back in his chair and sighing, "but even I can't resist the convenience of magic, compared to exploring a clue that may not have any results at all." , reading that little memory with the other person's permission is probably the most efficient way to communicate."

"Ask other people's consent? Hehe..."

Ivy pursed his lips and let out a meaningful laugh. His eyes turned to the direction Nelson was looking at before, as if to say, "Did you ask for the consent of others by doing this?"

Nelson didn't speak, but closed his eyes due to exhaustion, fine beads of sweat slipped from the corners of his forehead, shining unpredictable luster in the sun, as if wearing a heavy crown dotted with pearls.

Ivy looked at Nelson's side face. The original soft skin was covered with cobweb-like cracks, like a piece of porcelain that was broken and put together carefully. The natural fragility seemed to make him appear inexplicable. Beautiful, as if it should be kept in the world's most guarded art museum, to be admired like a Roman statue.

These scars are slowly being repaired, and Ivy finally understands what kind of scene "Reunion with Broken Mirror" should be. Looking at the bloodstains that are slowly fading, he can't help reaching out and touching his neck.

And Nelson's narrowed eyes followed Ivy's movements to look at his neck, where the dark red scar was as cold and dazzling as the collar of a slave.

"It hurts." Nelson asked, "Can you tell me, how did you get this scar?"

"Has he always talked like this?" Ivy couldn't bear Nelson's riddles. He turned his head to look at Jokunda who was holding Jin, and asked in a very familiar gesture, "Does he like to talk riddles so much?"

Jokunda was still immersed in the panic of hearing about her hometown from a stranger. After hearing Ivy's question, she instinctively took a step back with her arms around Jin, distanced herself from Ivy, pursed her lips, and shook her head. Shaking his head, his eyes were full of vigilance, and the wand was quietly hidden behind Jin.

Seeing Jokunda's small movements, Ivy sighed, his eyes were a little relieved, a little lonely, and a little understanding, and he took the initiative to walk to the other side of Nelson, "Your name is... Jokunda, I remember you are so young I hugged you back then, of course, I'm not sure."

His homely words suddenly stopped, and he and Nelson looked towards the edge of the roof almost at the same time.

"somebody is coming."

"I'll help you entertain them."

Without waiting for Nelson to agree, he left quickly, as if to escape from the girl Jokunda, who made him emotionally unstable. Compared with the worried Jokunda, Nelson saw more. When fluctuating, the magic power unconsciously swaying around his body even deformed the surrounding fog. This is not a reaction that a normal wizard should have. He looked thoughtfully at the back of Ivy who disappeared behind the black veil, The speculation in my heart about "Muggles mastering magic" became more firm.

If so, it would make sense for him to come to find himself.

"You... your name is Nelson?"

Jin looked at Nelson timidly, and hesitantly approached. Even when facing a dark wizard like Grindelwald, the courage of the ignorant made him not as afraid as he is now. The precocious boy understood that all his changes were important. It came from the seriously injured wizard in front of him. His still ignorant experience made him unable to tell whether this was good or bad. He only knew that if there was no Nelson, he and his family might still be oppressed by those villains.

He didn't understand what it meant that the high wall separating wizards and Muggles had been broken. In fact, most of the people around the collapsed wall were as ignorant as he was.

He asked the same thing as when Ivy asked Jokunda just now, but the context was quite different.

"Yes, Jin, this should be the first time we have met officially. Nice to meet you."

Nelson nodded with a smile, stretched out his hand, and wanted to touch the top of the boy's head, but the excessive movement touched the wound on the shoulder, and he couldn't help but groaned, the blood on his face faded away.

"Don't be so against your will, be careful to vomit blood and die." Jokunda stood by, wanted to help but couldn't move, and said something even more against her will. She kept telling herself that she couldn't admit her mistakes back then, but this The stubbornness accumulated by mistakes has long since disappeared by the cold windy lake.

"Thank you for your concern." Nelson said with a smile, and finally added in his heart, "As long as you don't keep thinking about finding Dad, everything is easy to talk about."

One guilty man and another guilty man froze in place, neither speaking until Kim broke the silence on the roof.

He summoned up his courage and asked in a low voice, "Nelson, can you tell me why you chose me?"

"Oh? I think Tom should have told you, by the way, Tom is the wizard who went to save you," Nelson looked at the boy's eyes that were still clear in the suffering, and he finally had a chance to take a closer look at the eyes that he had been The indifferent eyes, the clean pupils exude the same blue color as his own, reflecting his own face, Jin's life is almost unreservedly presented in these crystal clear eyes, Nelson can't help but feel a little emotional, if Without magic, he who lost almost everything in the war might become a stubborn kid like him, he squeezed out a gentle smile like Dumbledore, and his tone became really soft, "Then why do you think I chose And you?"

"Because of me...because of..." Jin faltered and couldn't speak, and after a long time of stuttering, he finally managed to say, "I...I don't know."

At this time, where does he still have the brave look to dare to challenge Grindelwald?

At this moment, Nelson finally got used to the pain, raised his arm, and slapped Jin on the head. He slapped Jin short with uncontrollable force, and almost fell into the fog of confusion.

"To put it bluntly, you are no different from others, but everyone has their own differences, you have your own beliefs, and you have the chance to become a pioneer, so fate chose you," Nelson pressed his hand on Jin's hair, Regardless of whether Jin can understand or not, he lowered his voice and continued, "I'm sorry, Jin, you must be terrified to drag you into an unknown world like this... I can't walk when I see such an opportunity, just like As many people have questioned, while I criticize the wizards for manipulating the world without authorization, why don't I rely on my own stronger power to arbitrarily arrange their fate? If you want to blame me, blame me. "

Jin broke free from Nelson's hands, pulled himself out of the fog, and stared at Nelson with piercing eyes. He didn't speak, but his eyes showed his attitude.

"It's bad manners to interrupt someone's conversation."

Ivy's scolding sounded on the edge of the roof, followed by a few strong flashes, and the Auror speeches that were the background noise fell silent.

Jokunda's eyes froze, and he asked in a low voice, "Do you need me to watch him for you?"

"Thank you for your enthusiasm, but you may not be able to see him, Jokunda," Nelson shook his head. "Next, I want to have a private chat with this person. Do you have any questions for me to ask?"

Jokunda hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head. She grabbed Jin's arm and said bluntly to Nelson: "It seems that I am being sentimental. I came here mainly for Jin... By the way, there is something I think is wrong." It is necessary to tell you that your good friend Mr. Tom Riddle has a sister."

"Christian?" Nelson frowned. "I remember she was in France... what happened to her?"

"France?" Jokunda shook his head. "It seems that she lied to you. Before coming to France, I saw her in Boston Harbor."

"You actually know her?" Nelson raised his eyebrows.

"I don't know her. As you said, I just know her. Besides, if it wasn't for the person who came to pick her up, I wouldn't have noticed that yellow-haired girl at all!"

"The person who came to pick her up?" Nelson frowned. "Is she in contact with any suspicious person again?"

"You're right this time," Jokunda sneered. "This suspicious person is my sister who I can't even find, your beloved Charms teacher, Professor Sykes."

Looking at Nelson's frozen expression, Jokunda didn't say much. Hearing Ivy's footsteps on the mist getting closer, she clenched Jin's hand and prepared to leave. One second before Apparition, she spoke again, Asked softly: "When are you going to spread out that kind of thing that can make Muggles have magic?"

After all, she disappeared with Jin. For Nelson, she didn't want to hear the answer at all. It was not so much a question as a kind of urging.
