I am a writer in Tokyo

In fact, not long after the professors evaluated "Paradise Lost", some people also expressed the same emotion.

While they were amazed by Kitajima's design, they were also impressed by the huge amount of information contained in this novel.

It seems that for those who can understand "Paradise Lost", this is a masterpiece, but for others, this book seems to be full of all kinds of unsightly plots and dirty words.

"Can such a book appear in this market? Or is it not included in the classified books and is suitable for all age groups in the entire society?"

"Those who advocate the power of Xiaoyuan Kazuki come out and see what this so-called rising star in the literary world has written. It seems that this kind of thing should not appear here."

The people who made these remarks did not mean to avoid anything. For neon people, they are relatively reserved in many cases, but their emotions are always in a state of depression.

When this kind of suppression lasts for a long time, it will always explode.

They either lower their heads and remain silent, or they vent all their negative emotions in one go.

And when they chose to vent on this occasion, it seemed that it was because Xiaoyuan Kazuki to some extent tore through their disguise.

Hypocrisy when its mask is torn off can attack people.

Just like a tiger that has been hungry for a long time.

Ishibashi Kazuhiko stood in the crowd, listening to those who stood on the moral high ground and pointed, and chose to remain silent.

He alone was unable to resist the catharsis of this group of people. Of course, there was another important reason. He was not a fan of Kazuki Xiaoyuan, and he had not even read a book by Kazuki Xiaoyuan.

One of the more important reasons why he appeared here this time was that he heard a piece of news.

This new book by Koin Kazuki seems to be based on a real-life background. However, if nothing unexpected happens, one of the protagonists of this story should be his good friend.

Those were his close friends, and Ishibashi Kazuhiko had always heard about their affairs.

The first time he knew about this, he scolded Jiumu severely. How could such a thing that violated ethics and morals be said in such a high-sounding way.

"But, everyone has the right to break free, don't they? Do I have to be the same as everyone else, bound together by all these constraints, just like those crabs caught in the sea?"

"But it's wrong for you to do this."

"There is no right or wrong, only what you want and what you don't want. I just want to be a free person."

"Even if he's a scumbag?"

"I don't think I'm a scumbag."

After listening to Kumu's words, Ishibashi Kazuhiko was silent for a long time. He opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything at all. He didn't know how to refute this hopeless friend.

He tried to get his seemingly forward-thinking friend back on track, but he couldn't.

Do we have to make this guy become a mediocre person?

Although he didn't shout out those second-level lines that refused to be mediocre, there is no doubt that his betrayal of morality was flaunting his non-mediocrity.

"If you do this, you will be stigmatized."

Ishibashi Kazuhiko did not say these words in the end.

After staying in the bookstore for a while and taking advantage of the situation to buy a book, Kazuhiko Ishibashi immediately ran home.

He felt that even if his friend was a person who betrayed morality, others would not criticize him so much after his death.

And this kind of most powerful slander was written into a book by a relatively famous writer. The most terrible thing is that this book seems so improper. Didn’t you hear what those people in the bookstore said? .

This book is just shy of being labeled as erotic.

Ishibashi Kazuhiko looked extremely angry at this moment.

But he had to find a suitable reason so that he could attack effectively.

Ishibashi Kazuhiko knew about their two deaths.

Before leaving this world, Jiumu looked for him. At that time, he didn't know what Jiumu meant. When he heard the news of his death, he was shocked, and then fell into extreme sadness.

Therefore, he wanted to know how the departure of his friend was artistically processed by this writer.

Soon, it turned dark outside.

He also turned the pages of the book page by page.

……

The two picked up the cups and clinked them. Jiumu said, "For ours."

Suddenly choked up, Rinzi continued: "Wonderful trip."

The two drank the wine in the glass and then looked at each other. Linzi said meaningfully: "It's great to be alive."

You are about to die, but you say it is great to be alive. Why is this?

Jiumu felt strange.

Linzi held the goblet and said to him: "I only got to know you because I was alive, and I know a lot of happy things and have many beautiful memories."

Jiumu was also deeply touched. He nodded gratefully, and Rinzi's eyes radiated light.

“Love makes me beautiful and I understand the meaning of life every day and every moment.

Of course, there are also many worries, but there are dozens of times more joy.

The life-and-death love made my whole body become sensitive, I would be excited about everything I saw, and I understood that everything is alive."

"But we are going to die soon."

"Yes, it's enough to have so many colorful and beautiful memories. There's nothing to regret anymore, right?"

Just as Rinzi said, Jiumu fell in love with all his heart, and now he has no regrets at all.

It's great to be alive.

Jiumu couldn't help but said the same thing as Rinko.

This past year and a half has been very fulfilling, so I feel that death is not scary.

"Thank you."

Rinzi held out the glass again, and Jiumu clinked the glass with her.

"Thank you."

So, is this the ultimate love described by Kazuki Koin?

When Ishibashi Kazuhiko was about to turn the page, he found that his face was already very wet.

He cried.

Have Rinko and Jiumu experienced a journey to the Garden of Eden?

This seems more romantic and ideal.

Later, Ishibashi Kazuhiko saw the postscript written by Koin Kazuki at the end of the book.

We want to know the reasons for their death, but we don’t want to judge: no matter what the reason is, since we have paid for our own feelings or thoughts with our own lives, a kind of solemnity covers our mouths.

Of course we should not play with life, and we should not despise death.

It is an indisputable fact that people can never completely understand each other.

Then, the judgment of the same thing will inevitably differ from person to person.

Living people can naturally say that they are crazy, miserable, stupid, and unreasonable, but how many things that were once regarded as truth eventually became worthless?

And in such a world, they sacrifice everything for their love, for the Garden of Eden in their imagination, and for the sublimity in their hearts. In front of this sublimity, I can only look up and say nothing.
