The two of them were standing in the courtyard of Grandma Para's house, and a canine beast named "Huck" was barking at them.

"It's finally back!" Anri said relievedly.

Kakat also calmed down a lot, perhaps because the familiar feeling had returned, and his resentment had been appeased.

"Where are you two little ghosts, asking you to collect your clothes for a long time without responding. ”

It was Grandma Parra, still looking stern.

"Grandma, you don't believe it, just now Kakat and I actually strayed into Kakat's father's energy shuttle! and...... And it's unbelievable that this guy has just become the master of the shuttle!" Anri said excitedly, but the second half of the sentence was to encourage Kakat to deliberately pretend to look down on him.

"Yes, it's already the 'time of appointment', and time flies so fast. Grandma Para said calmly.

"What, Grandma actually believed!" Anri was surprised.

Kakat smiled wryly, this guy has misgrasped the point.

"So what exactly is the 'moment of appointment'?" Anri returned to his previous earnestness.

This is not something that can be explained in a few words. Come in, I've made your favorite amount of baked biscuits. Grandma Para picked up Huck.

"That's great! Para-style biscuits are great!" Anri snatched Kakate's usual lines.

The old-fashioned radio on the table was full of noise, but it still couldn't hide the enthusiastic voice: "This year, undoubtedly a new era in the all-powerful world, the great Kyle Sabin has passed away, and the little Kyle Sabin has taken his place again, changing the ultra-new government that has been established for sixty years into a coalition government, remember SN.1081, a year destined to go down in history, a ......"

Para turns off the radio.

Kakat was munching on a biscuit with his head down, and Anri was sitting upright.

"After Kakaro and Kinam gave birth to Kakat, they abandoned Kakat . As for the reasons for abandonment, I don't need to say more about it here. Para lifted her glasses and looked at Kakate.

The biscuit in Kakate's hand was immediately crushed, and the crumbled filling fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Anri also suddenly remembered that several times before, when Para wanted to talk to Kakaat about Kakarot, he also plugged his ears and quickly ran away, leaving himself and Grandma Para behind.

"Kakat, don't be emotional. What your father did was infuriating, but you have to understand that he had a hard time. Pala said calmly, "I think you can understand how he and Jinam gave you to me, but of course, the so-called 'I have a hard time' is naturally not an excuse for doing something wrong." ”

Pala took a sip of the teacup on the table and continued, "They also did this to save you, and they chose to abandon you in order to escape the pursuit of the Energy Coalition Government. ”

"Didn't you say that future generations would not be condemned?" Anri asked.

In the case of intermarriages of different races, the Noh government only convicts both parties, and usually sentences them with death. As for the offspring born after marriage, the government will hand them over to the corresponding support organization in the spirit of humanitarianism.

"That's just the pretty words of those in power. "They always thought that the son of a foreign race was a great sin. ”

"Kakalo was determined to discard you. But then, after all persuasion by Jinam, I handed you over to me. ”

Kakat's mood calmed down, but he seemed impatient that he hadn't gotten into the subject for a long time. "So Pala, what the hell is the 'Moment of Promise'?"

"The so-called 'moment of promise' is naturally the moment when the agreement is reached," Para said softly, stroking Huck's fur, "but it should be my unilateral promise." Para took another sip of the hot tea from his teacup and continued, "Kakalo seems to feel a little guilty about you, so he commissioned me to set up a seal called 'The Moment of Promise', and the sealed thing is this energy shuttle. ”

Anri seemed to understand something.

"The condition for entering this seal, the Nebkri Energy Shuttle, is simple, it is to 'enter' by chance. And the activation of the seal happens to be today. ”

Previously, Anri and Kakat were bored and provoked Huck, but they were chased by Huck, so they accidentally entered the seal.

"So it's also planned for me to become the shuttle master later?" Kakat stabilized, grabbing the biscuit and stuffing it into his mouth.

"That's right. Para stroked Huck's fur again, "After all, I've been in the Nebukri Energy Shuttle before, so I don't want it to be left without an owner. According to the regulations of the Energy Shuttle Association, all energy shuttles without a shuttle owner will be recycled and destroyed within the specified period. So I didn't hesitate to agree to Kakalo's request. Para took off his glasses and said, "So, O Kakat, I want you to take this energy shuttle as proof of Kakaro's atonement. No matter how much you resent him, you can't turn back time. It's better to cast your eyes into the distance and concentrate on operating the energy shuttle. Besides, you are already destined to become the master of this energy shuttle. ”

Para stood up and walked away with Huck in his arms.

"So, my ...... That guy turned out to be ......."

Kakat naturally knew best about his father's life and death, but he still wanted to hear it from Para's mouth.

"Yes, you can't escape death. Para didn't look back.

"Well, this kid will ask you. The man bowed and left.

Para touched little Kakate's head, distressed. She nodded, watching him go.

Since then, Kakat has grown up under Parra's care. At the same time, Parra also continued to deliberately indoctrinate Kakaat about how his father, Kakalo, had abandoned him. Kakat also believed what Para said, and resented his father even more.

At this time, Kakat's best friend was naturally Barno Anrihapa

It was an ordinary afternoon when Kakat and Anri first met: Kakat squatted alone on the hillside on the outskirts of the Para family yard, observing and playing with the red ore everywhere. This is why the island is called "Red Island".

"It's called the 'Red Stone', and it symbolizes mutual protection of pain. A young man with soft blond hair bent over and stared at the mutilated red ore in Kakat's hand.

"This actually matches my piece! This probability is less than 1 in 10 million. The blonde boy pulled out a broken piece of red ore like a trick. And the two stones can just be pieced together to form a complete diamond-shaped stone.

"I was expecting another anastomosis to be a lovely lady and didn't expect ...... Alas"

Kakat glared at the inexplicable man and threw the ore forward in his hand.

"No, don't, I'm just kidding. Anyway, it's fate. The boy calmly retrieved the discarded ore and returned it to Kakate.

Kakat prepares to leave when he is stopped by the teenager.

"My name is Bano Anrihapa, just call me Anri. ”

"My name is Kakate. ”

This is where the two meet, and the sky is as dark red as usual due to the reflection of red ore.

Later, the relationship between the two became more and more harmonious, and Kakat often took Anri to Para's house. Para, who is usually serious, has become more gentle when she sees Anri. Para, on the other hand, was a very knowledgeable person, and the two of them learned a lot from her. Of course, she is still a soul destroyer, and as for what she does, the two of them always think that she is in charge of some people's souls.

After that, Kakat met two other partners, and the four of them were inseparable. And one of the girls always claims to be Anri's fiancée, and Anri naturally ignores her delusions. The other is Anri's own brother.

The wrinkles on Parra's face and arms are not due to age, but rather to Kakate.

One night, a fire somehow broke out in a wooden building where the four of them used to play together, while Kakat and two other friends were inside. At the same time, Anri, who was outside, had to call Pala because of the fire.

As the fire subsided, Kakat was finally rescued by Para, but fortunately there was no major incident. It's a great pity that yes, the other two partners were engulfed in flames......

In order to save Kakat, Parra's entire face and arms were scorched. Later, after surgery, the sequelae of Para asking Kakat and Anri to call him "grandma".

It's just that Kakat still calls her Para after that. After all, after that, Parra always looked at the photos of himself when he was "young" and secretly cried.

"I said Kakat, you should almost leave the Red Island, right?" Para gathered her clothes and tossed them to Kakate, "After all, you're the master of the shuttle, and the energy shuttle would be too lonely if it was empty......

Kakat hugged his hot clothes and disappeared. Indeed, it all happened too fast. Suddenly knowing that he has become the owner of the shuttle and is going to operate and be in charge of the energy shuttle, anyone will be caught off guard.

Kakat was also well aware that this peaceful days of isolation were coming to an end. No matter how much he resents his father, he must personally take over the management of the energy shuttle left behind, and manage it better than that guy! If this is the arrangement of fate, he must also stand up and accept and face it.

"Then, I declare Bano Anrihapa the first member of the Nebkri Energy Shuttle, and I warmly welcome!" Kakat threw down his clothes and clapped his hands.

"What, no kidding, okay?" shouted Anri.

In fact, Anli is still happy in his heart, but he still has a trace of concern.

"I'm not really old enough to live alone, or do you really think I'm old?" Para saw Anri's concerns, and threw the rest of the dry clothes at Anri in anger.

"I didn't mean that, Grandma Parra, ah no...... Pola. For the first time, Anri called Para by her first name, "I just don't want you to be alone." ”

"And Huck with me. Para picked up Huck as if she was hiding something.

"But...... Hey, Kakat can you say something, too!"

"I have nothing but endless gratitude for Parra. I always believed that Para was still young, never old, and that she could have lived well without us. I'd be happy if Para was willing to get involved. Kakat looked more serious than ever.

"This ...... It's not like what you said. Anri plucked out his ears and said he couldn't believe it.

"I don't want to join again...... After all, that guy wouldn't be interesting without Kakalo. And I can't leave here. With that, Para turned and prepared to enter the house.

"You've really grown. It was a sound of relief with laughter and tears.

"Since Para has said so, then I don't have any worries. It's just that in the days when we are away, you must take good care of yourself, and don't force it. Anri said to Para, who was standing in the doorway, carrying the luggage of two people.

It's like a father who goes to work telling his child.

"Do you still need to say this little bunny, don't talk nonsense, go quickly!" thud, and the door was slammed shut.

Kakat saw that the loneliness and reluctance that Parra had on her face was the same as when she was silently looking at her photograph of herself.

Immediately, the door opened again. Para stepped out and handed a ring to Kakate. "This is Kakaro's relic, take it if you want it or not. Well, take care. ”

Such a hasty farewell ended with another "bang", and the sound of closing the door that seemed to be a little reluctant also came into the atmosphere of parting.

Kakat bowed deeply and headed towards Pala, who was probably leaning back to the door at this point.

"Let's go. ”

"Let's go......"

With a cool breeze, the two stepped on the red ore everywhere. The sky was as red as ever, and the migratory birds were reluctant to leave.

"Hmm...... Let's go see them both before we leave. Kakat grabbed his luggage and carried it on his back.

"It's fine. ”

Cemeteries soon appeared, and the people of Hongdao were laid to rest here after their deaths.

From the intricate stone tablets, the two quickly found the two stone tablets placed side by side. Under the reflection of the surrounding red ore, the two stone tablets seemed to blush shyly from the visit of relatives and friends.

"An'er, Hara, Kakat and I are about to leave the Red Island to embark on an unknown adventure that we have never had before, I hope we can also go on an adventure with you!" Anri wiped the dust from the stele.

Kakaert's heart was very complicated at this time, but when he looked at the two partners who were resting, he felt a little relieved.

I hope you two can witness our adventures over there.

"Let's go, they'll get impatient if they talk too much. Kakat turned and walked away.

Anri bowed deeply towards the stele and turned to follow Kakate.
