"Understood. After a moment of silence, Harusa said, "A tragic story for you...... Tragedies in the world are like 'funny' things. ”

Gloat.

This kind of mentality is everywhere, or people generally have such negative feelings.

Some people will show it blatantly, some people will show it on the Internet, some people will not show it to people but will show it to animals, and some people will not show it at all but will laugh in their hearts......

It's normal to have such negative emotions, and as long as you don't get out of control, you're still an ordinary person, but Kamiya Shusheng is obviously out of the category of "normal".

Laughter rang out again from the other side.

"I'm glad you understood, but I don't think you've understood so much...... You should be more candid. Kamiya said.

"More frankly, are you sure you want me to do this?" said Haruji coldly.

To speak more "frankly" than just now is to swear.

"Don't use such a scary tone. Kamiya smiled, "Let me ask you one more question, how much are you willing to pay for the precious 'peace'?"

"I don't want to talk to you anymore, either you say what you need to say, or I'll hang up. Harumi refused to say anything more.

"Don't be in such a hurry, this topic is more or less about what needs to be said. Kamiya said in a deep tone, "Or to put it another way, how many lives do you think is appropriate to sacrifice in order to maintain 'peace'?"

Harusa's eyes condensed slightly.

“…… What does this question mean?"

"You should think of what it means, stop pretending to be stupid, Brother Haruta. Kamiya pointed straight to the heart.

Harusa's eyes flickered.

"No matter how many people sacrifice, it is inappropriate. He replied solemnly.

"This standard answer is boring, and I want to hear your real answer. ”

That's my answer. ”

"No, you know what I'm asking, what I'm trying to know. ”

And then there's the quiet.

Harusa was silent.

Kamiya waits.

This solemn silence lasted for a full minute.

"Well, I kind of know your answer. Kamiya said.

"There was still a question, but I didn't need to ask it. ”

"The reward for being a 'hero' this time is still a piece of information. ”

……

Cherry blossoms fall in the wind.

Hazy, vague, beautiful and illusory.

Once again, I was in a dream...... Chiaki is aware of this.

In front of it is a large bright red torii, and behind the torii is a white expanse, and there is a faint sound that seems to be singing.

As far as the eye could see, there was only Sakura and the torii, and she naturally stepped forward and walked towards it.

As she got closer, the voice grew louder.

It was indeed a song, a very beautiful singing, it should be sung by a girl, but I couldn't hear what it was singing, revealing the meaning of divine cleansing.

"Over...... Come ......" seemed to be mixed with whispered words in the song.

Chiaki notices and listens carefully.

"No...... Come...... Over ......"

"No...... Want...... Pass...... Come ......"

Over and over again, as if to say "don't come"?

Chiaki could barely make out to this extent, and she couldn't even tell whether it was a man or a woman who spoke.

She walked up to the torii gate and stopped.

There seems to be an extremely thick white mist in front of you, so you can't see anything, and it feels a little cold, as if you won't be fine if you walk in.

But where else can you go if you don't go in? There are only petals fluttering in sight and this torii gate, and crossing the latter is the only way forward.

Although there is a "warning", it is only vaguely recognized, and it may have been misheard.

Besides, it's a dream.

Nothing bad should happen in the dream...... Chiaki, who was not conscious of it, took this thought and took another step.

When I stepped out with my right foot, I felt a piercing chill as if I had crossed a certain line!

This chill spread quickly up along her right foot, causing Chiaki's leg to lose sensation, as if it was frozen!

She was so shocked that she hurriedly tried to retreat, but she couldn't lift her right foot, as if it was frozen with the ground.

Just when she was struggling in fear, a hand suddenly appeared in front of her and pushed her hard!

Chiaki fell backwards and fell to the ground. The right foot then withdrew from the boundary, and the chill stopped spreading.

Who pushed me just now?

She looked ahead, but all she saw was white.

I did see a hand just now...... It could only come out of that fog!

There are people in the fog, or someone on the other side.

Who is across from the torii?

The torii gate represents the entrance to the realm of the gods...... The person on the other side is a person from the Divine Domain...... The people in the Divine Domain stopped me from entering and saved me......

"Mom?" Chiaki finally thought.

should have thought of it for the first time, but because of being in this hazy and vague dream, his thinking was slow, and he only thought of it at this moment.

"Mom...... Is that you?" she asked, raising her voice.

No response.

"Mom...... I'm Chiaki, Wakaba Chiaki!" the girl called out her name.

Still no response.

Chiaki tried to stand up, but although the chill stopped spreading, it didn't subside, and her right leg couldn't move at all.

She tried harder, but she still couldn't move.

This leg ...... Is it scrapped?

This thought flooded my mind, and I couldn't help but panic.

"Mom ......" instinctively wanted to ask for help, but she couldn't see anyone.

I should have called my mother's name, but I couldn't remember it...... Chiaki's eyes were filled with tears.

I can't think of anything about my mother.

I only know what my father said...... But there is no mother's name either...... Besides, it was my father's memory, not my own.

I can't think of it at all, it's too much.

What kind of evil god would do such an excesses!

Anger and resentment, neither at the moment will help.

Chiaki looked at the opposite side of the torii with tears in her eyes, her mother must have been there, she must have saved herself just now, but she couldn't even remember her name.

Mom's name...... A name that should have been familiar...... A name that must never be forgotten......

The petals of the cherry blossoms kept falling, falling on her head and body, affecting her vision and feelings.

An invisible force enveloped the girl and began to put pressure on her, as if to drive her out of this realm.

"Mom-" Chiaki shouted, resisting the pressure.

I saw it just now...... But she couldn't see each other, she was unwilling!

"Forgot about you, I'm sorry ......"

"Daddy remembers you...... It's not much, but he always remembers ......"

"He said I was raised by you...... I want to think about it, but I can't, I'm sorry. ”

"I want to see you, Mom......"

"I want to see you...... Come to think of it, everything about you, the time we spent together......"

Precious memories, memories that should have existed, all that should have been possessed but lost.

It's so sad to lose to the point where you don't even know it.

And what kind of mood is the mother who has been forgotten like this, Chiaki feels pain in her chest just by imagining it.

"I'm sorry" is not enough!

No amount of shouting is enough.

It must be remembered, even if it is just a fragment, even if it is just a name.

"Harusa...... Help me ......" Under the increasing pressure, she subconsciously asked her boyfriend for help.

It seems to be connected to something, and the right hand is inexplicably touched.

Turning her head to look, something came into view, and Chiaki's eyes widened in shock.

It was a beautiful paper umbrella.
