Good news

Man: So. My wife found Aoi passed out in the woods while she was picking apples. She immediately notified me and I took her to our home. She was badly injured and we didn't know if she would get through. But we did not give up and we nursed and treated her so that she could get well again. After three days she woke up again. But the funny thing was that she didn't move much in the three days, but she sometimes whispered the name Hina. We definitely understood it that way, didn't we, honey?
Woman: Yeah.
Yoshiko: - Then it really was Aoi. -
Man: After she was awake, she wanted to know where she is and how to get here. So we told her that we had found her in the forest. Then what had happened slowly came back to her. We nursed her and after 2 weeks she moved on. She said she had to find someone important.
Yui: An important person?
Man: Yeah, but she didn't tell us the name. She was very kind.It's a shame that she's already gone.
Woman: Yes, she was like a daughter to us. (smile)
May: Do you have any more information? Maybe where she was going?
Man: No, I'm sorry.
Woman: You went east.
May: East? - Isn't Hina from there? -
Yoshiko: And when did it start?
Man: So three days ago.
Yoshiko: - Then we just missed Aoi. -
Yui: Thank you very much.
Yoshiko: Yeah, thank you very much.
Man: Not worth mentioning. We're happy to help Aoi's friends. (smile)
Woman: Good luck in your search for Aoi. Give her greetings from us.
May: We will do that. As soon as we find them.
Man: Thank you very much. Goodbye.
Mai, Yoshiko and Yui: Bye.

The three leave the house and make their way to their hiding place.

In the hiding place:
Hina, Miyu and Kana are sitting on the floor talking.

Miyu: Do you think you're getting useful information?
Kana: I don't know. We have to wait and see.Miyu: Hina, what do you mean?
Hina: ...
Kana: Hina?

Kana waves her hand in front of Hina's face.

Kana: Hello?
Hina: What?
Miyu: We asked you a question.
Hina: Oh, I'm sorry. I was just in thought.
Kana: We noticed that.

Kana crosses her arms.

Hina: What did you want to know?
Miyu: It doesn't matter, it wasn't that important.

Miyu falls on his back on the grass.

Miyu: I hope the others will come back soon.
Hina: Yeah.
Kana: Aren't you coming back there? I feel like I can hear Yui's loud organ. (laugh)
Hina: (laughs) Yes, you could be right about that.
Miyu: Huh? Yes you are right. You're just around the corner. In 3, 2, 1, 0.

Just like Miyu said, the three girls come around the corner.

Yui: Hey!

Hina immediately jumps up.

Hina: And?

Miyu sits down properly again.

May: Calm down, Hina. We got good information.
Hina: Tell me well!
Mai: Sit down first.

Hina sits down on the floor again and Yoshiko, Yui and Mai do the same.Yui: We were at the house. The people there were very nice and immediately helped us.

Yui tells the others what the man said.

Hina: That means that she will travel to our village.
Mai: Yes, that's exactly what I thought.
Yui: That means we're going east, doesn't it?
Hina: Yeah. I hope we meet you there.
Miyu: Don't worry, we will.

Miyu pats her friend on the back encouragingly.

Yoshiko: But one thing still amazes me.
Kana: What is it?
Yoshiko: Hina told us that her sister is very strong. And she also has one of the strongest skills.
Kana: Yes and? What's weird about that?
Yoshiko: Then why, was she so badly injured?
Hina: Because you can't use the power of light at night. Just like you cannot use the power to control water without water. You need the sun for this. You, that's the fatal thing.
Kana: Then why is this ability so feared?Hina: If there is one person who can put all the energy of the sun into an attack, then you can wipe out the whole universe with it.
Yoshiko: How can you create such an energy?
Hina: When you can control your strength well and your energy isn't plagued by any worries.
Mai: And your sister could do this?
Hina: Not exactly. But it was already able to capture most of the sun's energy.
Yui: Wow.
Hina: But since this ability only depends on the spirit, people with this power are helpless and weak at night.
Yoshiko: Then it's not a good thing that your sister is traveling east alone, is it?
Hina: Yeah.
Miyu: Don't worry, Hina. We are now on our way east. Then we'll be with your sister as soon as possible.
Kana: Do you also know when Aoi left?
Yoshiko: The man said three days ago.
Hina: Three days ago?
Yui: Yeah.
Hina: Then we can still catch up with her.Miyu: Cool. Then let's get started quickly.
Kana: Exactly. Let's go east!
Miyu, Yui, Yoshiko and Mai: Let's go east!
Hina: Thank you.
Miyu: Don't worry.

Mai, Yui and Yoshiko go to Chiba to buy a few supplies and the other rooms store their things. After they have taken care of everything, they want to make their way to Hina's home village. But suddenly three people come to the clearing.

Miyu: Someone is coming.
Hina: What?
Yoshiko: Watch out!

But it was too late, the three people are already standing in front of them.

Fumiko: Hello. (smile)
Hina: you?
Fumiko: We wanted to give you some more money.
Hina: What for?
Shinji: My wife says you can use it.
Manabu: Please take it. (smile)
Hina: We can't accept that.
Fumiko: Oh, sorry. We haven't even introduced ourselves to your friends yet. My name is Fumiko, this is my husband Shinji and my son Manabu. We look forward to getting to know you.
Miyu: Us too.
Fumiko: Here, take the money and go.The guards are about to come by here.
Kana: Why is that?
Shinji: They always check the area around town in the morning.

Fumiko gives Hina the bag with the coins and disappears again with her family behind the city walls.

Yoshiko: Come on, we should go. The guards are on their way.
Hina: Okay. Off to Kariya!

The six friends quickly make their way east to avoid being caught by the guards. They have made a long journey and hope to meet Aoi as early as possible.
