About This Novel
Those who stare into the abyss are also stared into by the abyss, and those who listen to strange stories are also part of the strange stories. Are there really ghosts in this world? Are those frightening and lamentable monsters unknowable ghosts or our hearts? "Hyakumonogatari" is a game that emerged in Japan during the Edo period. On summer nights, light a hundred candles and sit around in the darkroom telling strange stories. Blow out a candle after each sermon. Legend has it that when all the candles are extinguished, monsters will appear. The famous bag shop "Mishimaya" in the Edo period had a chess room "Black and White" surrounded by manjus and sandals. One day, the girl Akon entertained chess players on behalf of the shopkeeper who was out of town for some reason. Unexpectedly, the other party actually said that he saw a human face on the Manzhushahua blooming in the courtyard. Then he recounted a past event that had been hidden deep in his heart for many years. From then on, people with stories hidden in their hearts came here. Akon collects the story of Hyakumonogatari in a unique way.
