This is a sad story

It felt familiar before I saw half of it, and then completely remembered. How depressing it was, but never thought this novel would make it to the big screen. Wow~~~ That's incredible. Watching the protagonist step by step towards the fateful ending,
there is an interesting detail in the story: the young self asks him: why are the clothes ready here, and why he knows where to put them. I didn't notice it at first, but Then there was this scene that made me laugh at the fun of time travel: The middle-aged man said to the tape in the hotel, it's cold here, don't forget to bring a hat or something, and then as soon as he opened the closet, he thought What you want comes out. Yes, the person in the future hears the request he recorded at the time and puts what he wants there at a certain time period (before the time period when he said those words, to be exact). Cool! ! So powerful.
At the end, there is a question: why did he become the bomb demon he hated in the end? Some people say that he is insane, I put it into his heart, and my answer is: he loves himself too much, he must be like this. Because he has to make his past self live meaningfully, he can't bear to hurt his past self again. There is a dialogue between them of two age groups:
"Do I have a choice?"
"Of course, you always have a choice"
"But sometimes you don't feel like it's all inevitable?"
" Yes Sometimes I will feel like "
"I have been alone all my life? I have no family"
"Yes, but your life has a purpose" (I don't know how to translate it, but the purpose does not express what I understand).
The Bomb Demon is the purpose of his life. The middle-aged self thought that if he didn't become the Bomb Demon, what "purpose" would he have in his life, he had been following him all his life. In the end, sadly, it was because he tracked him all his life that he made every bomb he succeeded.

It's a sad story to think about. A wounded woman, a man in pain, a helpless middle-aged man, these are all "inevitable". Finally, rationally interpret whether such a reincarnation is feasible.

-----------From the point of view of a science male-------------------
In the computer, this state of the protagonist does not exist , it can be explained by the concept of "garbage collection mechanism". He himself forms a ring and is inaccessible to the outside world. Logically, we cannot explain this phenomenon, but more fundamentally: no explanation is needed, because it is not connected.

    WTF! Is it interesting to mess with yourself like this? ! The infinite iterative loop like "Triangle" is a bit boring

    Despite being spoiled 10,000 times, I still have to say "miserable! Absolutely! People! Huan!"
