    The protagonist participates in a game design competition and recreates the Battle of Shanghai (a real-world game developer released this DLC, and the author's inspiration likely came from this). The writing is somewhat stiff and verbose, but it can be read as a short story. It's very relatable and allows us to understand the Battle of Shanghai and the determination of our ancestors to defend their country. Unlike other anti-Japanese war novels, it evokes genuine empathy.
