Author: Hey guys! This is my first time writing a fanfiction. I really need your reviews. Forgive me for my grammar since I am not an English native speaker. However, it is welcomed to fix my errors. I know I still have a lot to improve. Hope you enjoy!

It had been almost four months since you came back home. After successfully persuading your parents, you decided to finish your final year at Yasogami high school. Your reasons were "Good Friends and better environment". However, there was one bigger thought that irritated you. You chose not to tell due to your lack of expression. Besides, even if you did tell them, you knew they would not understand. Even you could not comprehend the thought.

You arrived at the gas station. Unlike last time, your friends came to pick you up. Yosuke could not hide his excitement (as usual) when he saw you:

"Dude, Welcome back! We thought you would leave forever."

Chie punched your shoulder really hard. She also looked happy. Yukiko just smiled. Both Kanji and Naoto were busy at the moment, so they decided to meet everyone later at Junes. Nanako was standing next to Teddy, kept saying "big bro". Teddy still put on his bear costume, which made you feel a lot more comfortable. Your little sister was as cute as usual. Your uncle, Dojima, could not come. Ever since he lost his subordinate, he had to do extra work.

"Now that you mention that guy", Yosuke did not even try to hide his anger. "We did not have enough evidence, so he was released after you left".

You pretended that you have just known the news. Meanwhile, Chie glared at Yosuke:

"Come on! Today is a good day. Why do we have to mention bad stuffs? Let's talk about that later!"

Everybody agreed, then headed to the old Headquarter. You spent whole day talking with them, thus your social link slightly increased. It had been a long time since you felt a sudden energy flowing into your soul. Nevertheless, this was not the main reason you came back to this town. You wanted to talk to your uncle.

Dojima went home late, as usual, but you were willing to wait. Nanako had gone to sleep early. Your uncle was very surprised to see you were still awake. He scolded you (just because that was his habit), then started eating his dinner. After checking your status, you were brave enough to interrupt his starving stomach.

"Adachi?". Your uncle sounds unpleasant. "Why do you want to ask about that guy?"

You did not want to tell Dojima about your doubt. Instead, you simply stated that friendship insisted you to gain little information about this old friend. Dojima gave you an uncertain glare. In the end, he gave up and sighed:

"You are still as nosy as ever. I still do not believe that is your final answer though, since you always hide something from me….Alright, I will give you his address. But, I do not want you to hang out with that guy too much. Now let me enjoy my dinner!"

After receiving the address, you went back to your room. You decided to pay a visit.

School was as bored as ever when you already mastered your knowledge. Yosuke showed his deepest appreciation of your coming back, since you always secretly gave him the correct answers in class. You had to admit that your best dude was not very bright (to be honest, except for Naoto, the Inverstigation team were also…). Actually, he never paid attention to the lessons. He preferred to look at pretty girls in class instead, only to receive many angry stares, including Chie and Yukiko. Playing as a silent protagonist, you chose not to warn him about the incoming danger. As long as your friend happy (you guess).

You immediately packed all your stuffs in the bag and left as the bell rang. Just in case something happened, you told Yosuke about coming to Adachi's house. You soon realized that was not a very wise option. Obviously, your friend was shocked.

"Dude, seriously? Why are you even considered to meet that bastard?"

You hesitated for a moment, thinking whether to tell your friend the truth. You did not have to wait too long until the guy snapped your response.

"Don't! J-Just do not say anything!", Yosuke pissed off. "After what he did to Saki-senpai…"

At this point, you truly regretted not having enough expression to calm your friend down. Despite his anger, you know he would not tell anyone about this as long as you insisted. You knew you were right. Yosuke looked disappointed, he did not even bother to ask you for the reason.

"Just do what you want." He muttered.

You were currently standing in front of Adachi's house. You easily recognized the place when you looked at the pot on the balcony. You believed the things in the pot were cabbages. To make sure you came to the right place, you had also checked the name labeled at the gate. You rang the bell, hoping someone would reply. As patient as your were, one hour was wasted waiting outside the guy's house. Maybe Adachi-san was still at work, or he just did not want to welcome you inside. It was 6 o'clock, so you decided to go home.

Dojima was already at home today. Nanako was super happy, you noticed. The three of you spent a quite pleasant dinner without being disturbed by phone calls. However, you felt that Dojima-san was acting a little bit taciturn ever since he worked alone. It might only because of his stress at work. You cannot help being worried for your relative. After the meal, you washed the dishes with Nanako, then headed to work at the hospital. There was nothing much to do at home when you already studied well. You finished your shift at 10 o'clock, then decided to buy some snacks at a convenient store. That was when you saw a familiar figure. He had not seen you yet. You chose not to neglect this opportunity and called his name.

"Adachi-san!"
