Chapter 2 written in front of the epilogue

In mid-June 1968, on a gloomy rainy evening, in a room in an apartment in Harajuku, Tokyo, a woman committed suicide by turning on the gas switch. The stench that diffused into the hallway alarmed the neighbors and broke in, only to find that she had swallowed a large amount of gas and was beyond rescue.According to the suicide note next to the corpse, she learned that her husband had recently died of illness, and followed him to Jiuquan.The room was neatly tidied up, and it seemed that she had already made up her mind to commit suicide, which aroused people's grief. However, this kind of thing is really common and commonplace in such a big city.

At the same time on the same day, a young woman asked to be traced at the Suginami Police Station in Tokyo.The missing person is her husband, who is recuperating at home due to illness. Two days ago, he ran away when there was no one at home, and his whereabouts are still unknown.The police officer stared at the young mother and the two-year-old child who was born to the missing person. In the bleak rain, the lonely figure gradually faded away, and he couldn't help but cast a haze in his heart, which could not disappear for a long time. However, this kind of thing is really common and commonplace in such a big city.

Also at the same time of the day, a man fell to his death from the knife-edge rock at the top of the spike peak.The man rolled down the sharp edge of the 200-meter-high Hida Rock, and his body was bloody and bloody, making it hard to identify. However, this kind of thing is common and commonplace in the mountains.
