From a child prodigy who was astounded by his years to a father who turned his life into poetry, he built a bridge to the future on the ruins of his life.
In the memories of his aunt Nana, he is "White Moonlight" and a legend. In the eyes of his son Xiaolin Jiayu, he is "father" and his daily life.
He silently plunged into the torrent of life, using his genius wisdom and silent affection to prop up a quiet and fruitful period after the storm of losing his beloved. He taught his son that: the deepest protection is to weave a "happy" lie together; the most attentive inheritance is to let myths and history become the light in children's eyes among the wheels and mountains and rivers; and the strongest "home" only depends on the presence of the person who is like the center of gravity.
This is the [Extra] trilogy, an independent chapter written from the perspective of Kobayashi Jiayu, the son of Brother Xiaoyu. It no longer retells the true epic, but instead gazes at the starry sky of its fathers: to see how the genius who was struck by fate forged knowledge and pain into armor to protect ordinary daily life. If the main story is a hymn dedicated to good men, then the extra story is the deepest and most specific echo of that hymn.
Open it and you will see a father whose halo has faded. See how he lives like a mountain, a river, and the source of silence that allows children to know where the light is without looking back.
Intention: Some emotions are difficult to express face to face throughout life. I would like to use this record as a boat to cross those unspoken "thank you" and "I understand" and arrive at your other shore. Your figure has long been engraved in my blood and has become the deepest gift of life. I know very well that this love does not need to be repaid. I just need to take over the steady light from your warm hands, and then pass it on steadily.
