| Situation |
I was doing calisthenics outside when there was a bright flash in the city, a white light shaped like the teeth of a saw that stretched towards Miyajima, accompanied by a loud noise. There was an endless procession of persons who had suffered severe burns being brought from the city. The next day, I went into the city where there were dead bodies that smelled horribly strewn all about. Mr. Murata, who I shared a room with in the dormitory, passed away in front of my eyes. On the afternoon of the 9th, I returned to Togouchi. |
