Chapter 113
At the start of his route to K City in his car, Ryosaku slowed down and passed in front of the small house in Y City where Mieko used to live.
The pass took only a few seconds, but in that time, he remembered the journey they had taken together... how they had walked home from school holding hands and singing Seiko Matsumoto's hit songs, how Setsu had given him a precious photo of Mieko, and how he had been reunited here for the first time in seven years with the grown-up Mieko, and how they had once again sworn eternal love to each other on this street... and how that turned out to be their final, sad farewell... as these memories flashed through his mind, the car eventually entered the highway and headed straight for K City.
Ryosaku listened to the nostalgic song by Seiko on the car stereo, sometimes humming the phrases, sometimes crying in silence as he recalled Mieko's adorable final moments... A few hours later, the car he was driving got off the highway and headed for his destination, K City.
Ryosaku carefully drove along the route he had thoroughly researched beforehand, and finally arrived at his first destination, K City Hall.
