"The forest isn't that big, if we just keep walking we'll find a way out eventually...", Kou pointed at the map matter-of-factly.
Everyone agreed until, unexpectedly, Makita spoke up, "But... Will it really be okay to just walk around randomly? Don't you think It would be better to wait here until the teachers come find us?"
