The Bartender at Sanbankan
General Fiction三番馆的酒保
Tetsuya Ayukawa
The Yamanote Line tram had made five and a half turns, and Umeoka Shinoko finally made up her mind and stood up. She was taking the Inner Circle Line. The tram slowly entered the Shinjuku platform. As soon as the door opened, a few passengers got off the train. It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and most of the male passengers looked drunk. When these people were sitting in the car, they were swaying, but as soon as they stood up, they immediately became energetic and walked calmly and steadily when they got off the car. Every time I see such a scene, I find it incomprehensible. Why do these men pretend to be so drunk? Naoko went to Shinjuku to pay off the loan shark interest, and she borrowed a large amount of money. This was something that made her painful but had to do it, because today was payday, and even if it was delayed by one day, the interest would snowball, making her unable to bear it.

White Secret Room
General Fiction白色密室
Tetsuya Ayukawa
The full moon shone on the snow-capped ground, and he finally reached the house with difficulty and staggering, right? ! The man slumped on the sofa had a knife stuck in his back... Judging from the discontinuous lines on the weather map, it would snow after noon, but I didn't expect it to be so heavy. At first, there were only floating snowflakes. After nightfall, it gradually became thicker, like goose feather-like peony snow, and it looked like it would rain all night. But unexpectedly, before nine o'clock, it stopped suddenly. As usual, this time's weather forecast is far from reality - but those weather experts should not be ridiculed as "worms eating taxpayers' hard-earned money."

Contradictory Footprints
General Fiction矛盾的足迹
Tetsuya Ayukawa
Mystery writers met, but in the first snow of winter, a writer's body was found in her cabin. Who killed her? Can they pass this real-life test? Unexpectedly, the villa is so big. The outer wall is made of thick logs. Although the structure is not very particular, the upper and lower floors are nearly 100 square feet. The courtyard doesn't feel very big. But if you think of the Nasu Plateau that stretches out in front of your house as your own garden, the situation will change dramatically. This villa is not owned by one person, but is a property shared by several of my mystery writer friends. That was five or six years ago.
