The boy pinched his fingers unconsciously.

In fact, he has been ignoring a problem intentionally or unintentionally.

Nor is it ignored.

He just didn't think about it.

It's unwillingness.

It is also an escape.

…

Is Crow Crow angry?

The boy pursed his lips.

The answer to this question is obvious.

The boy took a deep breath.

Slowly spit it out again.

Obviously he said goodbye to Crow Crow last time he left...

He also told Crow Crow...

Goodbye means hoping to meet again...

…

Crow Crow never saw him again...

Are you very angry?

Could it be that...Crow Crow was so angry that he no longer wanted to talk to him?

…

The boy doesn't know.

but……

There was a bit of determination on the boy's face.

Anyway, he came out.

There is absolutely no reason to give up halfway.

No matter what the outcome was, he would not know until he saw Crow Crow.

No matter what the result is, he is willing to accept it.

…

The boy's steps quickened a few steps.

arrive.

The park gate came into view, and the boy paused slightly.

The next second, the boy strode into the park.

…

He obviously hasn't been to this park for a long time...

But walking in the park and looking at the surrounding scenery, the boy felt as if he had just been here yesterday.

Here... nothing has changed at all?!

The boy was a little surprised.

Also a little dazed.

Didn’t we say before that this park needed to be renovated?

But now it looks like this...

Were there no corrections in the end?

The boy was quite confused.

…

It's like time has stopped in this park.

The boy's steps couldn't help but slow down.

He looked around.

Then he was amused by his behavior.

He has graduated from elementary school.

Those guys won't follow him anymore.

…

The boy shook his head.

It's like trying to get rid of a certain emotion.

This park is too easy to mislead people.

Is it because...there's Crow Crow around?

…

Crow Crow is a monster...

How can a park with monsters be ordinary?

The boy swallowed for no reason.

He started to get nervous.

No.

He had been feeling uncontrollably nervous since he was hesitating whether to come to see Crow Crow.

Now, he is even more nervous.

He took a deep breath.

He held his hand hard.

incredible……

His hands actually trembled slightly.

…

His nails dug into the back of his hands.

He works harder and harder...

He finally felt the pain.

And this pain suppressed his trembling.

…

The boy let go of his hand.

He touched the back of his hand.

There are nail marks superimposed one after another on it.

Slightly red.

…

The boy's footsteps stopped.

He saw it.

Just like the scenery he saw along the way, the maple tree not far away had not changed at all.

The only thing that was different from his impression was...

It's not autumn now.

The maple trees in his eyes are not red.

But even if it’s all green…

I don’t know if it’s my own misunderstanding?

He just felt that the greenness of the maple trees was more... verdant.

…

The boy was in no hurry to get close to the maple tree.
