Natsume remembers when he was in elementary school, it was a roadside cherry blossom tree, a female yokai with light green hair.

The youkai may also be lonely, she will sit bored in the tree and watch the children pass by, and from time to time she will suddenly jump in front of them to scare them.

Unfortunately, no one can see her, and the monsters in the trees sit on the trees year after year, observing the passing crowd, but no one can find her.

For the elf born from the cherry blossom tree, she can't leave her body too far, so she can only stay in the tree all year round, enjoying a long life while observing the passing crowd alone.

Until that day, as always, the youkai suddenly appeared in front of a group of children. While everyone else ignored her, a child sat on the ground in surprise.

He... Frightened by yourself!

The other little ones turned their heads and stared at Natsume with a look of monsters, idiots, and Natsume... But he looked at the monster in front of him in fear.

The youkai smiled and she found the interesting guy. Also found... A guy who feels similar to himself.

After graduating from elementary school, Natsume left the city and was sent further afield by relatives. And the cherry blossom tree monster is still sitting there, day after day, year after year...

"Why... That little guy didn't come today? Didn't he go to school..."...

Natsume's hometown is in the countryside, and after first returning to the house of a relative who had adopted him to say hello, Uchiha followed Natsume to his former elementary school.

The one who went for six years but didn't make a friend... Elementary school.

"Are you sure this road from a relative's house to elementary school?" Why did we walk along the way and not find the cherry blossom trees you mentioned?

Uchiha stood at the entrance of the elementary school, while Natsume kept reminiscing about the past.

"Maybe it's a road construction, let's go back and try this road."

This rural town has been under renovation for six years, and Natsume thought for a long time before finally finding the way home.

However, just as Natsume quickened his pace and walked forward, he was stopped by a group of construction teams.

Uchiha Ling stopped a staff member and pointed to the front and asked.

"What are you doing up front?"

"Oh, the road surface here is already very dilapidated, and after so many years of wind and rain, it should be rebuilt."

Natsume also walked up and asked a little nervously.

"What about the cherry blossom trees planted on both sides of the road on this road?"

The staff smiled, "Of course, they all were dug up." Otherwise, it will affect the construction of roads. But new ones will be planted then! "

All... Scooped up?

Natsume took a deep breath, "When was this?" Are the dug up trees still there! "

Er... This morning, it was cut and then dug up, and as for the wood, it should still be in the ground, and the truck carrying the goods will arrive later, and will help carry the wood away at that time.

Unexpectedly, the worker's eldest brother was still very talkative, and after saying everything he knew, Natsume looked at Uchiha Ling a little anxiously.

"Well, let's go straight in!"

The two cats did not stop at all, but walked straight towards the construction road.

"Eh, two little brothers, there is a forbidden road ahead, you should take a detour."

Uchiha Ling turned his head and directly threw over a few illusions. Then the other party continued to do his own thing as if he had never seen the two at all.

Where is it? She should be nearby!

It was the first time Uchiha Ling had seen Natsume actually show such a nervous expression.

Finally, Natsume and his cat-sensei stopped under a downed cherry blossom tree. The entire cherry blossom tree was cut in two, the huge trunk fell to the ground, and the stump was dug up along with the roots.

Natsume fell silent, while Uchiha opened the Sharingan eye and patted Natsume in the direction of the trunk.

"Natsume! You see!

Natsume, who was still down, suddenly looked up, and the familiar scent once again lingered on the tip of his nose.

And in the middle of the broken trunk, there was a woman with an illusory body, looking at him in surprise.

Six years may have flown by, but the cherry blossom tree elf always remembered the boy. Even if the other party has grown up, but.... She still recognized the other party at a glance.

"Are you... Natsume?!

Looking at the goblin who had not been seen for six years, Natsume Takashi no longer hesitated to come to the other party, showing a smile that he had never shown before.

Natsume.... I've grown up. It's also gentler than then... He must have met someone who was equally gentle, which is why he had such a gentle smile.

"Natsume! You're coming back to see me~"

The youkai smiled as well, and then threw himself at Natsume. Pity... She pounced. Because the body has become illusory. Even the entity of the monster can't be maintained.

The cat teacher silently retreated to the side, and so did Uchiha Ling.

Natsume: "I've always wanted to say sorry to you, because I was stupid at that time, and I couldn't say goodbye to you in the end, and I even resented you, but now, I understand your gentleness, so I will also become a gentle person!"

"But you..."

the Sakura Tree Goblin laughed silently.

Plant life is both tenacious and fragile. When the cherry blossom trees are cut down, when their roots are uprooted. She could only wait for death to come....

The trunk is not yet dead, but it has long been unable to return to heaven.

No matter how many spring, summer, autumn and winter I have experienced, I have never forgotten for a while. And you also remember me, understand my original tenderness, and can still come to me, and that's enough. Totally enough....

There is no need to say much or do any end-of-life blessings. She is very happy to be treated gently at the last moment.

Natsume stretched out his hand, but it still penetrated the other party's shadow.

"By the way, Natsume, I haven't told my name yet, after all, youkai can't easily tell people's names."

"Please remember that I have seen cherry blossoms fall since I was born, so my name is... Falling cherry blossoms. "

The cat teacher suddenly jumped on Natsume's back." Natsume is safe and happy now, and you can rest in peace.

Natsume: "Hey! Cat teacher!

And the cat teacher looked at the tree trunk on the ground, "A goblin born from a plant, if it is not cultivated to the state of detachment from the body, once the body dies.... It will disappear as the life of the plant disappears.

Uchiha Ling looked at the scene in front of him, raised his head and chuckled.

"There is still a way, let me come."

"Brother Ling?"

Uchiha Ling stepped forward and stretched out his hand to put on the tree trunk that had been cut off.

"Does the life of a plant pass... Next, leave it to me. "
