"I'll come back next year and bring everyone some island specialties!"
As the Ghost Car's taillights disappeared around the corner of the early winter street, Kamiya suddenly felt a hint of melancholy in his heart.
Maybe it was because he was already used to this little girl's noisy presence at home.
Now that she was gone, it felt a bit unsettling.
But in just over half a month, Shouka would come back again.

First, she rode Toshima Oishi's Ghost Car from Tokyo to Aomori Prefecture.
Arriving at the coastline, she then boarded the Mikami Brothers' Ghost Ship to ride the waves to Oguri Island.
Since there was no rush, Oishi and the Mikami Brothers didn't drive too fast.
Shouka started her homecoming journey after lunch, and by around two in the afternoon, she said goodbye to Oishi and the others and arrived directly at the doorstep of her home on Oguri Island.
