In the photo, the eleven or twelve-year-old boy has a bright smile that eclipses the sun. His golden messy hair is dyed a soft orange-red in the sunset, and his pink and jade face has the purest innocence.
Shida still remembers the deep shock she felt when she first saw that photo.
The livid city, the orange-red sunset, and the gorgeous innocence on the young man's face.
Three completely different colors are cleverly blended together, perfectly reflecting the tone of the world today.
The law of iron blood
The gentleness that gradually disappears
and
That innocence and brightness that has not been lost in the long river of time.
