It was the day when perman was going to birdplanet. Perman and Birdman both sat in their respective UFOs and the UFOs started. In some seconds they were in the space
PERMAN'S POV:~
I'm so far away from the earth that I can't even see it. I can't believe that I am going away from mom, dad, ganko, Michiko, miss sumire, kabao, sabu, payan, wooby, pako and everyone else. I don't know when I will return, Nor do I know who has sent this letter.
It looks like a love letter, I did not open it because I know that now it's meaningless.
Even If it's sent by someone close to me, I will keep thinking about them and won't be able to focus on my work.
When Birdman installed that device on our perman sets, I came to know that I will be the last person to go to birdplanet.
Despite knowing this, I worked hard, but clearly saw that the other permans were working harder than me.
Then why? Why did Birdman chose me?
After all, what could be the reason for Birdman choosing me? Neither my physical fitness is good, nor am I good at fighting, I get tired very quickly, and don't even ask about intellect.
When It comes to intellect, when I got the perfect robot for a few days, he was fast in everything. But I returned it because I started getting jealous of him. He would complete my homework instantly.
If I ask him to remember something, then the things which take me a whole day to remember, he would remember it in half an hour. After him remembering my homework, I could share share memories.
Wait, how will it be if I ask for that robot Birdman again and try to sharpen my brain by using it!
I have heard that knowledge sharpens the brain, so if he keeps remembering and I keep sharing memories, I can become much smarter!
And anyway, whenever I use that robot, it will be smarter than me every time. If I use it correctly, then, if everything is right, then I can become the smartest person in the world, and even after that I will become smarter.
But to do this I will have to return to earth, because using copy robots is not allowed on birdplanet.
"What are you lost in thoughts, Perman?"
"I was thinking why did you do this to the other Permans. As far as I have observed, the other Permans were working harder than me, still why did you choose me."
"Kid, the tests for permans are different from your average tests, where there is a limited sylabbus"
"Can't you say it straightforwardly?"
"Okay fine. But before that, I appreciate you for figuring this out, if you use your brain a little more, maybe you will find the answer yourself."
"I am sorry, but I don't have any confidence in my brain, so will you try to explain it yourself?"
"Okay, Mitsuo. So listen, the device that I installed on the perman set is not going to measure hard work at all."
"What? Meaning you lied to all of us!"
"Yes."
"But why did you do this?"
"Hey stupid Mitsuo. If we only wanted permans who work hard, we would've chose workers for perman?"
"Then what did that device measure?"
"The goodwill"
"What? You mean you want to say that I have the most goodwill?"
"It seems so. And yes, the measurement of that machine is never wrong."
"I understood."
"Do you want to ask anything else?"
"No. But Birdman, can I ask for something?"
"It depends on what you ask for."
"I need time."
"What?"
"I think I am not ready to go there yet, so I need some more time."
"Then tell me, how much time do you need?"
"How much can you give?"
"At most one month. If that is not enough, then I cannot do anything. Either come with me to birdplanet after one month, or I will choose some other perman."
"One month is enough."
"Then it is fine. Let's go towards your home."
After this, we started going to the earth again.
