   Then check out these books! The most interesting one is the first one, *Someone from That Time*, which contains eight short stories by Keigo Higashino. Just when you're engrossed in reading, you realize it's almost the end. Because of its short length, it leaves you wanting more and doesn't offer much room for reflection. Two stories particularly impressed me: one seems like the outline of Higashino's *The Secret* (Higashino explains in the afterword that it's the prototype for *The Secret*), and the other has echoes of *The Rules of a Great Detective*. ... Both are excellent! Highly recommended! Higashino fans should definitely check it out! [Thumbs up][Thumbs up]

Each room in the resort is named after a Mother Goose nursery rhyme, and each room has one or two wall decorations with the lyrics. At this time, the guests at the resort are almost identical to those a year ago. Just as the younger sister and her friend begin to ponder the connection between the nursery rhymes and her brother's death, one of the male guests is found fallen from a broken bridge… 💥 *The Kidnapping Game*: The story unfolds with interconnected events, and although the ending is somewhat predictable halfway through, this 2002 work doesn't feel clichéd.
