I have just turned 20 years old, a sunny young man with little experience in the world.
One day, on a whim, I made the only decision of my life - to study in Japan. What I didn't expect was the overwhelming support from my family and friends.
During my eight years in Tokyo, I got to know a group of ordinary people who played multiple roles for life. They were international students during the day, and were scattered in various corners of Tokyo at night. They were forced to play special roles due to the helplessness of life. Ability to hide, endure, and be ruthless.
You say it is a novel, but it is indeed a true story; you say it is a true story, but it is too much like a novel and does not belong to real life. It just records the story of my youth, the chain effect produced by one thought.
