The chair next to the desk is empty.

The bed is also empty.

The quilts on the bed are still neatly.

Obviously.

No one has been resting on the bed tonight.

...

Where is the younger brother?

The woodcutter opened his mouth, "...brother?"

"Brother, where are you?"

"younger brother?!"

The woodcutter's voice became louder and louder.

The expression on his face became more and more anxious.

It's midnight...

The young scholar is not in the house...

Where will it be?

...

The woodcutter rushed out of the house.

He searched it at home.

Especially in the kitchen, I searched it.

He thought his brother would be hungry...

After all, my brother didn’t eat much during the day.

Wake up in the middle of the night-

wrong.

My brother didn't go to bed to rest.

It's time to be reading, but I'm hungry?

.....

"Brother, brother..."

The woodcutter whispered.

Over and over again.

At the back, the woodcutter's voice became hoarse.

...

It's a pity.

He guessed wrongly.

The woodcutter did not find his younger brother in the kitchen.

The kitchen was clean and deserted, and there was no sign of anyone coming.

...

The woodcutter was confused.

There is no younger brother anywhere in the house...

That brother...

Where have you gone?

...

The woodcutter didn't know what to do for a moment.

But soon, he gritted his teeth.

I had a decision in my heart.

He strode away from the house.

younger brother……

Have you gone out?

...

If you don't have it at home...

That's only possible that it's outside the home.

...

It's just this big night...

The woodcutter is puzzled.

My younger brother doesn't go out during the day.

What's going out this night?

...

Is something happening?

A flash of inspiration flashed in the woodcutter's mind.

My heart suddenly skipped a beat.

...

No...

The woodcutter pursed his lips.

The fist was also clenched unconsciously.

His younger brother has encountered many problems.

How come he can go out in the middle of the night?

...

The woodcutter was anxious and worried.

Steps were heavy and urgent.

...

After walking out of the door, the woodcutter paused for a few seconds.

Where should he go?

A little confused appeared on the woodcutter's face.

...

Huh~

The woodcutter let out a long breath.

Find a direction casually.

I don't know when my brother left home...

The longer the time goes on, the higher the possibility of something happening to my younger brother.

He wants to find his younger brother as soon as possible.

...

The woodcutter went to the mountains.

This was his subconscious choice.

Probably because he is too familiar with the mountains.

After all, he has entered the mountains for almost years.

So when faced with a choice, he subconsciously chose something more familiar to him.

...

The woodcutter takes big steps.

He was in a very conflicted mood.
