It seemed that the old man’s body was recovered by the chief guard and secretly buried. Also, it seemed that they would not held a funeral.
On the other hand, as for me, there were no major incidents since then, and I just repeated my training.
And one month after the old man died–
“Alright, I’m ready!”
I went out of prison.
Black shirt and sand-colored long trousers. And while wearing a gray cloak on top, I looked back.
There was a large three-story building. It was surrounded by a fence that was taller than the building. A green-haired female guard was standing beside the main gate.
“Congratulations on your release… You are free now. “
“I was taken care of for a year.”
“Don’t say something you didn’t even think about…Ah, That’s right … “
The chief guard handed me an envelope.
“You forgot this.”
An envelope that I’d seen somewhere.
I looked inside the envelope, saw that it contains a letter, and realized what it was.
“This is a letter that the old man wrote to his granddaughter …”
“I can’t deliver it because the address isn’t written.”
“Don’t say that, you want me to deliver this?”
“That’s right.”
This chief guard … Do you want to push all the troubles to me?
“I don’t say that it’s for free… I’ve added a reward to your service.”
“Ah, so it’s the reason why my wallet was swollen?… Yeah, yeah, I understand. I will deliver the letter responsibly.”
