[Dark History] That summer incident I never wanted to remember has suddenly come back to me [Part 3]

Oh, how could this be... That incident I was supposed to have erased from my memory... has come back to haunt me once again...

This is the cause.
I was enjoying reading this exciting article, but...
I never expected that memory to come flooding back...

I have always had a weakness for mysterious objects, plants, mushrooms, and creatures I've never seen before.
That's why my heart was instantly captured by the article above.

When I was in elementary school, I became obsessed with carnivorous plants and begged my parents to buy me pitcher plants and Venus flytraps.

Unfortunately, I withered them in an instant without ever seeing them catch an insect.
It's not just carnivorous plants; I have a special ability to wither any plant in an instant.

I think plants just can't withstand the terrible evil energy that dwells within me.
I don't remember killing any cursed gods, but perhaps I've been placed under a curse by one...

Before I became obsessed with carnivorous plants, there was something else I was into: mushroom field guides.

Among them, there was one mushroom that stood out, and my eyes were instantly drawn to it.

It was the Mycena chlorophos.

I was absolutely stunned by the sight of the mushroom glowing brilliantly in the darkness.

What is this, it's amazing🥺💓 Mushrooms that glow in the dark are amazing💓 I want one💓

Since I was in the first grade of elementary school at the time, it's no wonder that amazing became amazin.

From spring to summer, our family would sometimes go out to the mountains to gather wild vegetables.

At those times, I would desperately search for Mycena chlorophos, but of course, it was never there.

When summer vacation finally arrived, whether we went out to gather wild vegetables, catch rhinoceros beetles, or go crayfish hunting... I searched desperately, but I could never find any Mycena chlorophos.

I was enjoying my summer vacation to the fullest, and just as it was nearing its end...

I realized something major.

Oh crap... I haven't done my homework.

I have to write one page of my picture diary every day, and I still have over 30 pages left...

I was in despair.

But I have no choice but to do it.

I scribbled things down randomly, but I'm running out of ideas.

I have nothing to write, and honestly, I don't even remember what I was doing.

...Luminous mushrooms...

Luminous mushrooms!! That's the only way to go!!

July 20th Weather: Sunny☀️

Today, my whole family went to pick wild vegetables. We picked a lot of wild vegetables.🌱

The bracken ohitashi my mom made was bitter and tasted a bit bad.🌿

August 28th Weather: Sunny☀️

Today, my whole family went to pick wild vegetables again. I decided to look for mushrooms instead of wild vegetables.

I found a lot of delicious-looking mushrooms.🍄

August 29th Weather: Sunny☀️

Today, my whole family went out to pick wild vegetables again.🌱

I made an amazing discovery today. I found a Mycena chlorophos. It's a mushroom that glows in the dark.

August 30th Weather: Sunny☀️

I decorated the entryway with the Mycena chlorophos I found yesterday. It's very beautiful.🍄

August 31st Weather: Cloudy☁️

I managed to pick way more Mycena chlorophos than I expected, so I replaced all the lights in the house with them. It's environmentally friendly since it doesn't cost any electricity.🌱

Teacher, please take a look at the real Mycena chlorophos during your next home visit.

I wrote such a huge lie.

By the way, my hometown is at the foot of Mt. Fuji in Shizuoka Prefecture.

The main distribution area for Mycena chlorophos is subtropical regions.

There is no way Mycena chlorophos could be found at the foot of Mt. Fuji in Shizuoka Prefecture.

I wonder what my teacher at the time thought when they saw this obviously fake diary.

I absolutely do not want to know.

↑ The deadline for this fun project is March 14th!! If you haven't submitted yet!! Please hurry up!!
