Library

Yonezawa Hoshin's words can always bring you into a strange and familiar world. Although the style this time is different from his masterpiece "Hyogo", you will definitely find unexpected surprises in the book.

A collection of 6 interrelated short daily mystery stories filled with love and friendship. Two boys who indulge in the library every day, one is keen, down-to-earth and kind-hearted, the other is observant but cold and distant. After school, they always encounter people coming to them with puzzles. The reasoning duo, who serve as library committee members, explore looming puzzles and sometimes heavy truths in their ordinary and exquisite lives. "I suspect that others believe that human nature is inherently evil. I feel that people who approach me with a smile are all liars, so I will try my best to see through others' true intentions. But that's not the case with you. It doesn't seem right to say that you believe that human nature is inherently good. In short, even if you hear that the other person is lying, you will still believe that there is something important behind these lies." "Are you saying that I am too simple?" "No... I mean you are a very nice person."

Minishi Village in Nanhakama City became an uninhabited village two years ago. People in the village slowly grow old and eventually die, so the community finally disintegrates and dies. I stood on a high slope, and what lay before my eyes were patches of wasteland covered by wildly growing and vigorous weeds, interspersed with old iron roofs and cracked asphalt roads. The village is not dead. "Wake up, Linshi!" This movement calling people to enter the uninhabited village has been going on for more than a year. Although 14 families have moved in one after another, it is still desolate. Only the white of new cars and the pink clothes of children playing on the road can be seen occasionally. "This place is becoming more and more popular!" Colleague Guanshan Youxiang said with a smile in his voice.
