I'm not sure why, but when I got the school lake, I felt a weird chill. Subconsciously, I pulled my jacket around tighter. Suddenly, I noticed the back of a girl as she was slowly walking along the lakeside in front of me.

That raven-black hair in a braid! Then, when I got closer, I realized her head was hung low and she was sobbing.
