With a cooling moisture, and tranquil silence in the air

On a calin this city’s largest public library

The weekend, it was still a little past noon on Saturday On days that it neither rains nor snows, I al here

Thepress was, if I re[3] an, I was 13 years old at the time

My old ift so I reluctantly read it, a mystery novel about the adventures of the world’s most famous detective

That novel was translated into easy to understand words so that even children could read it I thought it was just a pile of paper filled with only words that I wouldn’t find aave me dreams and ambitions

From then on, I was completely absorbed into the world of stories

At first I only read detective novels that were translated froraduated middle school, my hands reached out to all sorts of historical novels like The Three Kingdoht Novels where people like aliens and espers and time travelers appear[4]

Having i a revolutionary detective novel that was narrated by the culprit hi a brand new novel, I headed towards the bookshelf

I wonder what genre of novel I should read next Just the thought of it was exciting

「――Hmm?」(Ayame)

While taking a peek around before placing the novel I had just finished reading back on the bookshelf, a single book with a tinge of color I have never seen was resting there

With an iris color, it was a book given silance like a memo pad

It’s thickness was about the saa tankoubon but, it’s dimensions were a little sazine

I have never been involved with age-restricted comic books before but, if I remember correctly, I think that the size should be similar to that
