8 Muenzuka, a place where the nameless deceased sleep.
|
|
10 Nothing resembling a gravestone can be seen. At best, scattered about are stones
that are small enough to be carried with both hands.
|
|
13 That's about all there is to it, so there are hardly any visitors who come to mourn.
|
|
17 Aya "Looks like the flowers aren't returning to normal.
|
|
19 If I could write an article about these flowers, it'd say..."
|
|
21 Aya "The flowers bloomed because the outside world's spirits increased too much...
|
|
23 And they aren't returning to normal~
|
|
25 --Wait, that's not interesting at all. Rejected!"
|
|
27 Though she claims to write the truth, her content is prioritized based on how interesting it is.
|
|
29 In particular, she loves trivial news about the ordinary lives of Gensokyo's inhabitants.
|
|
31 She also has no shortage of anger coming from those who've had odd, interesting articles written of them.
|
|
35 Komachi "Are you here to commit suicide-- Oh wait,
|
|
37 You're that tengu from before.
|
|
39 What's going on? Are you here to commit suicide again?"
|
|
42 Aya "Didn't I tell you from the start that I wasn't going to commit suicide?"
|
|
44 Aya "The flowers don't really seem to be returning to normal.
|
|
46 --Or so I thought, so I came to collect information about it."
|
|
49 Komachi "Uhh, well... good luck with that."
|
|
51 Komachi "Lately, the amount of new spirits coming in has decreased,
so I think the amount of flowers will also lower soon."
|
|
55 Aya "How are things going?
|
|
57 Isn't there something different happening?"
|
|
60 Komachi "Something different?
|
|
62 I'm busy every day, so I don't have any time to be causing an incident..."
|
|
65 Aya "I see...
|
|
67 By the way, on a different subject..."
|
|
69 Aya "The other day, a certain someone showed me the calculation tables to
compute the width of the Sanzu River."
|
|
73 Komachi "What?
|
|
75 That isn't something that can really be measured..."
|
|
78 Aya "I was shocked at how incredibly complicated the equation was.
|
|
80 And how the width of the river changes with whatever amount the ferry is paid..."
|
|
83 Komachi "It isn't even that simple."
|
|
85 Komachi "I've been ferry boating for a long time,
|
|
87 But on the way, there's a foggy place where you can't see what's in front or behind you.
|
|
89 The length of that place, as well as the river's speed, are impossible to estimate."
|
|
92 Aya "That's what I said it was an incredibly complicated equation."
|
|
94 While they were having their silly chat, Aya realized that the grim reaper was already slacking off
right before her eyes, but she didn't say anything.
|
|
97 There was no use in fretting, since the number of spirits wouldn't go down anytime soon.
|
|
99 In this case, it was best if the work could be reliably done without any mistakes.
|
|
101 She finally realized that if there was no incident worth writing an article about, then there
is no need to force herself to write an article.
|
|
104 If there is no news, then naturally there's no need to publish a newspaper issue.
|
|
106 Incidents are things that are better off not happening.
|
|
108 Just like the Yama said, she certainly felt that by writing up so many
incidents, she was increasing the number of heinous incidents.
|
|
111 So then, what was the purpose of a newspaper?
|
|
113 She thought about it a little, and realized that they were like the wind.
|
|
115 Congratulations! Ending No.11
