Sean, do you want to walk?” “肖恩爷爷,你要走了吗？” The clear sound resounds in Sean's back, was that asked the child who initially Sean wanted the red apple, the past small girl has just grown up now. 清脆的声音在肖恩的背后响起,却是当初那个问肖恩要红苹果的孩子,只不过当年的小丫头如今已经长大了。 „Yes.” “是的。” Stops the footsteps, has turned around, Sean looks that the young girl says. 停下脚步,转过身,肖恩看着少女开口说道。 „Did Grandpa Sean, you give others not

看着少女,肖恩开口问了一句,然后不等少女回答就转身离开,而这一次肖恩真正走出了卡恩村,并没有被无形的界限阻拦住步伐。 On the hillside, looks at the back that Sean goes far away, has a look at card En Village that the blood and fire interweave again, the young girl sighs, seems sighing anything. 山坡上,看着肖恩远去的背影,再看看血与火交织的卡恩村,少女叹了一口气,似乎在感叹着什么。 „Was concerned with that is your choice, is only a watching critically traveler?” “不闻不问就是你的选择,只做一个冷眼旁观的过客吗？” ……

courtyard has an apple tree of luxuriant growth of leaves and branches, but silver-haired old people under apple tree, for this apple tree trim branches and leaves. 嗡,空间变换,跨出那一道无形的界限之后,肖恩再次回到了自己之前居住的老房子,在这里有着一个并不大的院子,院子里有一棵枝繁叶茂的苹果树,而在苹果树下则有一个白发苍苍的老人,正在为这棵苹果树修剪枝叶。 „Sits, little fellow.” “坐吧,小家伙。” Cuts the next branch, the old person has turned around to Sean was
