as the girl I once was.

Chiyoko?

It's a big one!

Chiyoko!

You're always there to help me...

Chiyoko! Chiyoko!

In the end...

she never again met

the guy who gave her the key.

That old policeman...

That painter...

refused to talk, right to the end.

So I tortured him.

I killed him.

So Chiyoko...

was just chasing a shadow.

I'm sorry!

We asked too much of you.

No... I enjoyed it very much.

But I guess this is good-bye.

The doctor says you'll be fine!

You're a poor liar, aren't you?

Don't feel sad.

After all, I'm going...

after that man again.

See? I have the key, thanks to you.

It's opened the door

to my memories of him.

It's as if while I was talking to you...

the girl I was came back to life.

This time you'll find him.

I'm sure of it!

I wonder...

But maybe it doesn't matter.

After all...

After all, it's the chasing after him

I really love.
