Extra episode [-]: Casey's Diary
X year X month X day
After staying in the cellar for a long time, no one knows what happened to the outside world.
What comforts me is that in this dark and silent place, Leer is with him, although he is still in a coma.
To be honest, Barlow really scared me when he sent him here.
As if I was not willing to send my brother to die, I also kept Barlow, hoping that he could hide in the cellar with us, but he refused me.
This is the first time he rejected me.
I actually understand very well that no one can back down when we have come to this point.
If possible, I also want to become a barrier like them, at least so that everyone is still together. I know what it means to survive. If human beings want to continue, they must rely on reproduction. As a woman who carries on the family line, what will happen afterwards? There is no need to think about such a fate.
I'm scared.
In the future, without the protection of my brother and father, what should I do?
X year X month X day
After waking up, Leer was very calm, even after learning the news of Barlow's death, he didn't have any emotional changes.
I am anxious.
X year X month X day
I really shouldn't have believed that he was fine, it was just time to get a glass of water, and Leer disappeared.He must have gone outside to find Barlow, but the outside is so chaotic, I... what should I do?
X year X month X day
During this period of time, too many things happened.
We escaped from the town, panicked, and came to the town where we used to live.
It has been completely destroyed there, with ruins, broken walls and ruins, without a trace of popularity.
Most importantly, there are giants here.
Those horrible and disgusting creatures attacked us on the first day of our arrival, and Leer... he, he turned into those monsters too!
He drank the potion, and he actually stole the potion to save Barlow!
Fortunately, the giant finally drove away.
It was a strange thing that no giant came to attack us during the many days that Lele lay in bed after his recovery.
But when he woke up, there seemed to be a problem with his memory, and he didn't even know who I was?
X year X month X day
Leer began to lose control frequently, as if his mind was occupied by another tyrannical person, the time of waking up became shorter and shorter, on the contrary, the time of out-of-control rage became longer and longer.
I am very scared, I am afraid that one day he will become like those man-eating giants outside and completely lose his personality.
X year X month X day
I locked Leer into the iron prison in the basement.
He completely transformed into a giant form, and kept yelling at me.
The giants that had gathered around started to disappear, and once I even walked out of the house, there was not a single giant nearby.
Could it be that Leer's roar was too terrifying, and they were afraid of Leer?
……
X year X month X day
I think my life may be coming to an end.
My friend Leer has never recovered since he became a giant more than 40 years ago. My life has been painful and long. At this moment, I am finally about to usher in relief.
I'm sorry Leer, I can't accompany you anymore.
When you read this diary, you should have regained your sanity and come out of the iron prison.
I'm so sorry to have locked you up in that place for so long.
The side effects of the medicine are greater than I imagined, and I have been trying to find a way to relieve your pain.
But now that you are awake, it should mean that you can control this power.Well, let's go back to town quickly.Although I don’t know how much time has passed now, but at least before my death, it has been more than 50 years. No one will recognize you. You can find a quiet place and live the life you want.
Because that is the only way to truly live.

Part [-]: Fetters
When he opened his eyes, his mind was blank for a long time.
The spring breeze is warm, the light golden sunlight falls from the gaps in the leaves, and the intoxicating fragrance of flowers flows in the air.He was half leaning on the root of the tree, the purple iris swaying gently at his feet, and the pink petals were pressed against □'s ankle, which was very cool to the touch.
"Have you finally woken up?"
A soft voice came from the front, he raised his head subconsciously, and happened to bump into a beam of golden light, which hurt his eyes.
The person who came was getting closer and closer, and the shadow gradually covered him, and his eyes blurred by tears could only vaguely see the outline of the person.
"Come on, I'll take you home." Dry and slender fingers held him, and with a little effort, he was pulled up from the ground.
He was at a loss, unconsciously influenced by that person, imitating his movements, walking sluggishly.
The purple irises brushed against the legs, and he looked at the person leading him in front of him, and always felt a familiar feeling.
"Do you think my breath is familiar?" As if knowing what he was thinking, the man spoke with a slight smile, "We are a family, Almin."
……
months later.
Leer watched Almin clean the bowls one by one with a smile, and suddenly said, "Do you want to visit a nearby town?"
Humans are really strange creatures.
The mouth used to speak often utters deceitful words, but the silent and quiet body always faithfully expresses the owner's true thoughts.
——Even if you lose your instincts and become an unconscious giant for thousands of years, as soon as you come into contact with those things that have long been forgotten, or even called strange things at this moment, you can quickly get started and return to proficiency.
——If you really complied with that sentence, your memory will disappear, but your body will definitely remember it.
"Oh?" Almin was pleasantly surprised, his blue and clear pupils slightly widened, "Can I go?!"
It's been a long time since I've been here, but Leer always restricts him from going out on the grounds that his face is not safe. Fortunately, he has a good personality and likes to read books. There is nothing wrong with staying like this, but...
It would be even better if you can touch with your hands, gaze with your eyes, and feel the outside world with your body instead of just understanding it through books.
Armin's joyful and apprehensive mood was not concealed, all of which were shining brightly in his clear blue pupils, Leer couldn't help smiling, raised his hand and touched his head, "Of course."
He was not allowed to go out before, just to teach him how to live as a human being. Now that he is used to it, of course he can go out for a walk.
Pat had already prepared the carriage, and Leer tidied up a bit, then led Armin out.
The steed neighed and pulled the carriage slowly towards the distant town.
Along the way, Armin lay at the window, staring at the outside scenery. His first memory was the moment when he was brought home by Leer, and he was locked in the house all the time. curious.
The aroma of bread can already be smelled in the wind.
Almin said excitedly: "Uncle, it's a small town! We're here!"
Leer nodded with a smile, turned around and asked Pat to park the car at the gate of the city, and led Almin into the city on foot.
Passing through the majestic and tall city gate, Almin felt his own insignificance for the first time. He raised his head and looked at the stone wall with an unknown height, his face full of wonder.
The copper bells on the city wall sounded simple and heavy, and accompanied by the flying birds, the houses scattered with high and low gradually appeared in the field of vision, and the ground made up of bluestone slabs was under his feet. Armin walked slowly, full of novelty and excitement. Mood took one step, another step, and the hard touch came through the soles, which was completely different from the feeling at home. There was a lot of people around, and Le Er was afraid that he would be squeezed by the crowd, so he carefully protected him by his side.
But Armin didn't know what he was thinking. It was the first time he came to such a lively place, and he was full of surprises. He was attracted by the gadgets on the stalls for a while, and was attracted by the wind chimes hanging at the door of the shop for a while. Consciously, he let go of his hand, Leer's fingers were slightly clenched, and he subconsciously clenched his hand again, but when his eyes met his looking around, he suddenly laughed again.
He let go of him slowly.
Armin didn't know about his short-term mental activity, and he ran around the street like a tit. Leer's eyes were glued to him, and a faint smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In a daze, he seemed to see a little girl with fluffy curly hair, also at this age, who found everything novel and liked everything.
She looks more and more like Casey...
But what about Barlow?
His smile faltered slightly, and his heart felt faintly bitter.
It took him a thousand years to tear down the wall;
It took another thousand years to find one by one among the giants covered with spar;
But I can't find it, I can't find it at all.
There are thousands of giants, but not one of them is Barlow.
Now, those who survived with determination have built towns and slowly regained the lost civilization. Almin has also woken up. He is healthy and has no adverse reactions. He looks like an ordinary person. Nothing of this seems to have changed, the era of peace from beginning to end, as if everything was just a nightmare.
Armin ran up a small stone bridge, inadvertently caught a glimpse of small fish swimming freely in the water, and couldn't help getting closer, "This lake seems to be different from the one next to our house. It looks so big."
Le Er's thoughts were slightly absorbed, "Huh?"
Armin repeated: "This lake is so big!"
lake?
Leer's eyes shifted slightly, and he landed on the river that surrounds the city. He couldn't help correcting him with a smile and sigh, "This is called a river."
"river?"
The gurgling river reflected the bright sunlight, and there were boats swimming in the distance with the waves. Leer walked over and put his hands on Almin's shoulders, as if he was afraid that he would fall, "Yes, the river. Almin Min, the world is huge, and there are existences bigger and wider than the river."
"That's the big river?"
Leer smiled and shook his head, "No. The one bigger than the river is called Jiang; the one wider than the river is called Ocean."
Armin half understood.
"Let's go, there are flocks of white pigeons in front of you, you will definitely like it."
Dove? !
Armin's eyes became brighter, and he nodded again and again, "Yes!"
Just then, someone passed by.
Suddenly there was a strange feeling in his heart, and Armin subconsciously turned his head back, but there seemed to be nothing else except the person passing by him just now.
"What's the matter?" Leer noticed his actions, and couldn't help but follow him.
Armin shook his head, with an inexplicable tone that he didn't even realize, "It's nothing."
Just as he was turning around, a person suddenly walked out of the grocery store under the bridge. The shopkeeper following him was holding two brooms in his hands, and seemed to be talking about something. The person paused suddenly, and when he turned around, he could see His profile was carved like a knife and axe, his complexion was very fair, and there seemed to be probing and deep thinking in his slightly sharp eyes.
That inexplicable feeling hit Armin again.
There seemed to be a voice in his head clamoring, asking him to turn his head back, as if there was a strong pull in the dark, and he couldn't ignore it.
He turned his head again, but there was still no one behind him.
it's wired.
Armin became more and more puzzled, not understanding what happened to him.
He broke away from Leer's hand and started to walk back.
"Armin?"
He walked faster and faster, and finally he almost broke into a trot all the way.
Finally, when he was about to run to the door of the grocery store, a man came out with a broom.
Maybe he noticed Almin's movement, he glanced casually, and then froze.
The young man who ran in front of him was out of breath, but his own figure was fully reflected in those clear blue pupils.
There was a sudden tremor in his heart, and a surge of nostalgia and sour emotion came over him. He looked at him deeply, and he was also looking at him, as if no one else could intervene in this world.
This is what Leer, who arrived later, chased down the bridge and saw this scene.
When he saw the man with the broom, he was surprised at first, and then couldn't help but smile.
Somewhere, there seems to be something that will draw two people who are destined to meet to meet.
