And the barren lands are gone. He is back in the cemetery.
"Fumiko…" He looks around. But there's no sign of her. Wind howls, bringing a distant sigh. The air temperature drops. Nishimura Soichiro knits his brows, feeling terrified… Not for himself though.
Where is Fumiko?
"Huehuehue…"
He hears the sound of weeping. Someone laughs. This laughter might have induced fear in him earlier. However, it doesn't stop him from marching toward Fumiko's grave. The voices stop bothering him. The silence is eerie.
Fumiko's muffled cries are clear to him now.
She's alive.
Nishimura Soichiro clenches his teeth and pushes the stone away. He digs the ground with his hands until he scratches the coffin.
"Fumiko, wait for me."
