And she died in a heavy snowfall in the twelfth lunar month.

When she died, she was looking in the direction of her homeland.

And now——

It seems like she is really back.

The girl withdrew her gaze and looked at the unfamiliar hands again.

Seeing her turn around and walk towards the courtyard gate, the boy struggled for a moment, then quickly chased after her, stretched out his hand to stop her, and shook his head with restraint in his eyes.

"No... we can't leave!" he said urgently.

"So you are not mute."

"No, it's not..." The boy looked complicated and anxious: "You can't leave!"

The girl showed no expression: "I don't like hitting children."

"...No!" The boy pointed to the closed wooden door, lowered his voice, and his big eyes were filled with uneasiness: "It's...everything outside!"
