Nagano,

The two brothers walked for nearly six hours, from sunrise to sunset. They were already dirty and in a mess, and their soles were worn out.

They could only limp and support each other.

Finally, at about four o'clock in the afternoon, I saw the small town that Jingguang had seen before from afar.

Even after washing his face with the help of river water, he still looked very miserable.

However, their elegant demeanor was not diminished in the slightest by the two men's embarrassment. Behind the two children, there seemed to be a dazzling light enveloping them and protecting them.

Atobe Keigo and Atobe Keimitsu had not eaten for two days and one night. When they were thirsty or hungry, they drank river water to sustain themselves. They looked haggard and pale, and were a little shaky.

Red roof, white walls, curling smoke,

From a distance,

This seemed to be a peaceful and harmonious town. Keigo Atobe supported his slightly weak brother and walked closer little by little.

"What's wrong with you?"

Suddenly, a strange voice came from not far away.

Atobe Keigo and Atobe Keigo turned around and looked in the direction of the voice, and found a boy with black hair and blue cat's eyes.

He was about seven or eight years old, wearing a small yellow hat, a uniform with the school logo, and carrying a small black school bag.

Holding a water cup and an insect net in his hands, he looked like he was out catching rhinoceros beetles after school.

The cat-eyed boy walked forward with some concern, ran quickly to the two of them, and looked at the two children who were in a mess.

He asked softly, "Little brother, where are you from? Did something happen to you? How did you get hurt?"

Then he took out a Band-Aid from his schoolbag and handed it to Jingguang and Keigo.

Seeing that the two did not accept it, the boy did not force them. Instead, he took the Band-Aid and put it in his pocket, then asked politely:

"Would you like some water?"

He held out his glass of water.

Jingguang and Keigo looked at each other and shook their heads.

They had drunk enough, and...

This place is not far from that mountain.

I wonder if those robbers are in town.

It will be bad if you encounter it!

There's no way they'll get away with it again!

The young boy looked at the wounds on the two men's bodies, frowned and felt a little distressed. The little brothers looked only in kindergarten, how could they have been injured so seriously?

And judging from the way they came, it seemed that they came out of the deep mountains.

My parents sternly warned me not to go into the mountains!

He looked at the two alert little brothers, gently squatted down, looked directly into their eyes, and released a friendly,

I introduced myself: "Hello, my name is Morobushi Kagemitsu, and I am a student in Class C, Grade 1, Nagano Prefectural Elementary School. I am not a bad person, but you two don't look well. How about I take you to my house to treat your wounds?"

Atobe Keigo: "Keigo?!"

Atobe Kagemitsu: “Huh?!”

Faced with the two people's somewhat surprised and somewhat strange reactions, Zhu Fu Jingguang shyly touched his nose and asked: "Well, my name is Jingguang, is there any problem with my name?"

Seeing this, Atobe Kagemitsu smiled and shook his head.

"No problem, but what a coincidence, my name is also Jingguang."

"Huh?! Really?"

Zhu Fujingguang widened his eyes in surprise. After his other brother nodded in confirmation,

Somewhat surprised, he said: "Then we are so destined to meet. Your name is Jingguang, and my name is Jingguang too."

Even though Atobe Keigo was down and out, he could not hide his pride and elegance. He nodded and took the initiative to say, "I am Keigo, his elder brother."

Maybe they were too exhausted to hold on any longer.

Perhaps it was the gentle and friendly appearance of the young boy in front of them, as well as the coincidental name, that made the two of them let down their guard.

I decided to go home with the boy and call my family.

Unfortunately, on the way to the Morubushi family, Atobe Keigo passed out. Atobe Keigo couldn't carry his brother by himself, but Morubushi Keigo could.

But looking at the bloody and densely packed small wounds on the boy's hands and feet, it was a bit difficult to start.
