Tokihiro is a third-year student in the Department of Economics. Like all 21-year-old college students, he worked in a convenience store, skipped school, hung out with friends, relied on his parents' financial support, and enjoyed a free life alone in Tokyo without thinking about the future. On this day, he was about to skip school and go back to sleep, but he got a piece of news from his teacher, which was like a bolt from the blue: He was expelled from school because of unpaid tuition fees! The originally ordinary and comfortable life began to slow down. His parents disappeared, his family emptied out, and he was kicked out of the rental house. In just a few days, he lost his student status and financial aid. No money, no job, sleeping in an Internet cafe that costs 100 yen an hour. I thought my life was already miserable, but little did I know that this was just the entrance to a bottomless abyss.
