You didn't seem likeable from the start. Drink beer early in the morning and fool people with inexplicable tanka. He doesn't say a word about his own affairs, but he keeps drawing out other people's thoughts. You already know that we have a teacher-student relationship, and it's too cunning. If I knew you were a teacher, I wouldn't talk about shoemaking anymore. Anyway, I can't do it, it's impossible, why don't you tell me? Does it mean that you think it's enough to just perfunctory a child's sleep talk? What I am longing for, who I am in love with, I cannot convey. But wishful thinking. You knew it from the start, so make it clear. It's really annoying, children should go to school obediently. I say you hate me. You, you have always been like that, always saying nothing about important things, and then putting on a nonchalant expression. You'll be alone all your life!"




































"Every morning, every morning, I get dressed and ready to go to school, but I'm always overwhelmed by fear. There, it's you, it's you who gave me the strength to move forward."

    It was intentional to choose to release in the rainy season. After Fanxing, he returned to the "desktop" style, which is very gratifying. The background is still burning money as always, the narrative is as bad as ever, and the characters are much better than before. There is still a sense of distance between the male and female protagonists. After playing with time and distance, this time it is the age difference. The episode that broke out at the end of the little freedom was praised, coriander... 27 years old is still a bit reluctant.
