What is 020?

  Koumura didn't mind. Anyway, as long as the girl's wound had really healed, he could also consider it a closure. With more than 20 days left before school started again, he could still go to the club several times to play tennis.

  It's just that when she recovers from her injury, she should go home. Thinking of this, he really can't bear to part with her. That home will be warm for a few more days before it becomes quiet again.

  With Kawashima's guarantee, regarding the girl's wound, whether she is a normal person or not, this matter will be considered settled.

  What surprised Kosuke was the girl's attitude.

  Perhaps it was the feeling of loneliness that made him not want the girl to leave so soon. So, he never took the initiative to ask her about her future plans, nor did he ask about her family, and even her name he didn't ask. The girl was even more at ease, continuing to live a life of "four whites" - eating, drinking, living and reading for free, without any intention of leaving.

  One evening, after cooking curry rice, Yukimura decided to have a good talk with her. From his observation, the girl seemed to have a special liking for curry, and every time she ate it, she would be very happy and become especially easy to talk to.

  "What's next?" he asked tentatively as she put down her chopsticks again with a satisfied expression.

  "What's going on?" She looked at him with a puzzled expression, seemingly unable to understand the implication of his words.

  "For example, wanting to return to her parents' side in the future, or studying hard... and you've been away for so long, don't you need to contact your family? He thought to himself, surely the girl wouldn't have forgotten her family's phone number?"

  "Mom and Dad?" Her expression became even more perplexed, which gave Kōmura a headache.

  "It's just father and mother!" He added helplessly.

  "Oh." Luckily, she finally understood, but a bolt from the blue left him stunned.

  "No!"

  "...Koumura wondered if his ears were playing tricks on him."

  The girl thought for a moment, then looked at him and shook her head seriously. "There's no memory of that part, probably not." She said casually, not pretending to be strong, and he could clearly feel her helplessness from her expression, tone, and eyes.

  She really thinks it doesn't matter.

  "...Do you have any other family members?" Yukimura asked with a sour expression.

  The girl looked just as bewildered as she had a moment before.

  Family? "What is family?"

  "Family is not a thing!" Kōmura's helpless growl! Family is family, what kind of thing is that to ask about?!

  “……”

  "What grade did you study up to?" he continued to ask, with a somewhat dismissive tone. Since the girl could flip through books... well, she could recognize a few characters, so she must have studied before...

  She continued to be puzzled, her eyes slightly drooping at the corners.

  "Going to school?" What's that thing?

  “……”

  It's basically like the blind leading the blind, where on earth did she used to live?!

  Koumura couldn't help but look at her and asked, "You didn't go to school or anything?" Seeing her confused expression, he added, "I mean a school."

  "Hmm... there's no school in that place." She thought for a moment, looking at him with an air of innocence.

  So can't you stop acting so innocent? Konoha suddenly felt a sharper pain in his head.
