Holes on both sides of the chains are entangled bandages, I also look back two or three steps to confirm. "Swing Kids" wounded hands were bandaged, the look was like back in the happy and the children waiting to play day.

I walked back to Dan threading station where she looked at the swing.

"You see, you are the injured had been wrapped in bandages where, oh! Do not you think the blood has stopped it?"

Xu Dan walked into the park, she fears, to swing look. For example, watching incredible things, like eye-blink several times, slowly approached the swing.

She reached out wrapped in a white bandage on the chain, touch a bit with your fingers, gently caress, and sighed deeply.

"Small laugh, the good, always feel relieved. Wound was bandaged after having to lay down one feels like big stones (sukkarui)."

"Sukkarui" Iki in Nagasaki dialect, is expressed "relief" means.

I intuitively thought: outside scenery and hearts in the same situation seems to have linked together.

Dan Xu report

Hello everyone, I'm Tanzawa. Part of the club on a range of reference, by the management of this column.

Although this and I would like to report that the content is not directly related, but I would like to make some additions, please let me make a brief report of the bar!

A small laugh-called "Swing Kids" is a fairy tale written in wartime, said to be because of this, the writer to have been arrested on charges of criticizing the government, but also the way were transferred to the Tokyo Detention House died.

After the war, he was writing a book to do was to re-evaluate the world, today, "Swing Kids" has become the town's primary schools and other educational institutions are using teaching materials. Popular tourist boom in various places, the obscure little town, also known as the town began to introduce some of the light of people or places, as is also said to have done a stone placed in the park. However, with the changing times, his name is forgotten. To do this report in a small laugh when, in fact, I had also forgotten.

Now, I am lucky enough to have children, two small boys in the town's primary schools.

Of course, my kids have no impression of the writer. Who died in detention this matter despite the attention, but is said to be regarded as anti-rural sports figures, so the monument was removed, as long ago, leaving only "Swing Kids" This story has been handed to the present. However, a few days ago to listen to our children at home, said the author of this story has been unknown, but the content seems to have changed a bit.
