As the hero who solved the One-Ear case, Chief Black Cat is an idol to all the forest's residents.
But the thing he hates most is hearing people bring up the One-Ear case.
Other people only see how he solved the case and earned great merit. What he sees is that he lost the best friend he ever had.
Everyone knows Chief Black Cat, but no one remembers Squad Leader White Cat.
(This story is told as the chief's memoir, with occasional passages from White Cat's perspective. It is meant to commemorate Squad Leader White Cat, the regret from my childhood that never went away.)
Theme: A tribute to Squad Leader White Cat, who stood by the chief through life-and-death struggles
