Once upon a time, Boris Yernikovalso had a beautiful life like a picture scroll. As an internationally renowned physicist, he previously taught string theory at Columbia University. His wife Jessicaplayed byis a very talented, beautiful and wealthy woman who lives together in a luxurious apartment located in a high society residential area. But such good luck with good weather did not alleviate Boris's persistent sense of despair. One night, after a fierce quarrel with Jessica, he jumped out of the window.

Since then, Boris has lived a pure-hearted life alone, and this old man with a world-class bad temper is also happy to do so.
