Amid the tears, while kneeling on that filthy grass, I thought: I'm sure this place has never been cleaned in its entire history. But who cares? Lima changed their memory, and it's possible that if someone gets killed in front of them, they'd still be happy. Maybe this only doesn't happen if it's their own relatives. People are funny. They are the disease we’ll never have a cure for because each person requires a different cure.
After all, if I kill someone, I won't feel anything. However, someone who knows the victim will feel anger, sadness, and a tremendous sense of justice because their family member was murdered and no one could do anything about it. And it’s in these moments that a tremendous desire arises within you. I want to be strong like no one ever has; I want to be strong with what I have.
"Are you here, Joui?"
While I was kneeling on the grass, observing Hugo’s tombstone, Lima appeared, and unlike the last few times, he was much more serious.
