Have you ever experienced the loss of memory?

Suddenly, perhaps many people will hesitate to give an ambiguous answer. Insignificant short-term memory is lost every day, we are not conscious; the key memory that is really important may be forgotten, but we often forget the “forgetting” itself. Can human beings forget specific memories by their own will? WeavingきょうやThe teacher made a big fuss about his “memory” and created a light literary novel “Memory Messenger”

First of all, this book has an attractive core concept – “memory messenger.” It is rumored to wait on a green bench at dusk, and the memory messenger will appear to help people eliminate the memory they want to forget. Some people say that the memory messenger is a strange geek with magical ability, and some people say that the memory messenger does not exist at all. It is just an urban legend that is rumored to be rumored. Some people say that the elimination of memory is to do some kind of unspeakable brain surgery, and some people say that memory is not eliminated, but is eaten…

There are many opinions. With these true and false guesses, the story of the novel officially begins. The male protagonist Giessen Liaoyi University just entered the school soon, and met the sister Sawada Kyoko at the dinner party. The heart was born with a good feeling. But Kyoko caused psychological trauma due to an incident in the past, suffering from serious night phobia. Affect life. Liaoyi tried her best to help her, and the effect was very small. The apricot that had been cured for a long time could not help but pin her hopes on the legendary memory messenger

One day, Kyoko suddenly no longer fears to walk the night, she forgot the cause of phobia, and also forgot Liaoyi. Although it is a story configuration that has the potential to write a sad and sad love drama, the novel focuses on the following plots. The feelings in a budding stagnation are awkward. Liao was not as sentimental. The strange memory gap made him discover that he was the one who lost his memory and didn’t know himself

As a light literary novel that won the readership award of the 22nd Japan Horror Novel Competition, “Memory Messenger” is known for its plot. At this point, the ordinary college student Liaoyi gradually discovered the strange feeling in life. Regardless of the people around him or his own, everyone’s memory seems to have been touched by people, anger, fear, and the vague emotions that cannot be explained by words. Liaoyi went to find the truth about the memory messenger

The first suspense of the novel points to “whether the memory messenger exists.” Kyoko forgets things that should not be forgotten in the common sense, but there is no direct evidence that her change is due to the memory messenger. Assuming that the memory messenger really exists, everyone who may have seen the memory messenger will forget the fact that the memory messenger exists because the memory is eliminated

In order to figure out the mystery that happened to him, Liaoyi needs more external information, in other words, it increases the sample size. Using various relationships, Liaoyi found a lot of people who have something to do with the memory messengers. When I was a child, I had a similar experience of memory disappearance. I have graduated as a lawyer, and I am a senior of the school’s senior school, Zhiqiu, who assisted in the investigation. The second grade of Xipu High School Sasuke rumors have seen memory messengers, and even on the Internet there is a forum dedicated to discussing such urban legends

The tentacles of the information stretched out in all directions, and the memory messenger in the center of the vortex became more and more confusing. The novel uses a third-person perspective, but it is not limited to Liaoyi. Some of the first volume and the second and third volumes of the first volume are not built around Liaoyi. The integrity of the story is better than the growth of a single character

With the constant appearance of the new character, the novel enters the second layer of suspense: “Who is the memory messenger?” The more in-depth investigations, the deeper the mud, the Liaoyi felt that the memory messengers are staring at themselves as if they were all traps of the other side, trapping the infatuated curious. The wind is strong, the grass is all soldiers, weaving and defendingきょうやThe teacher is not moving, Liao Yi and readers are stunned

After the truth is revealed, suspense is no longer important. The novel raises questions on the third level of the theme of the revelation: “What is justice?” Whether to eliminate memory is a good thing or a bad thing, whether the memory messenger’s actions are correct, and who is eligible to refer to the right and wrong. The movie “Looking for Dreams” has a saying: “Death is not the end of life, forgetting is.” The memory of the past has shaped us now, and eliminating memory means obliterating part of the present

People think that you can get back in the past, but people can’t step into the same river twice. It is horrible and sad to eliminate memory. But the urban legend about the memory messenger is still very dusty. Every day there is hope. The poor people who were pinned were waiting on the green bench at dusk. As long as the memory exists, human beings cannot escape from it. For some people, it is better to let go of a big dream and forget the life of a few cool autumns

This is the familiar loundraw teacher who draws the cover for this work. He has drawn illustrations for many youthful novels. The clear style of painting perfectly reflects the sense of distance between the characters in the novel, while Mt. %@@なちよThe comic version of the painting is more gentle. The two volumes of the comics are over, and the plot just stops at the end of the first volume of the novel

“Amnesia” is a common dog blood bridge section of romance idol dramas. The situation in this work is somewhat different. The parties often take the initiative to ask for “amnesia”, because the memory messenger will eliminate the memory associated with himself. After the event, the person usually does not remember to have erased the memory. Once he realizes it by chance, he will fall into a new panic and entanglement. Therefore, although the plot of the novel focuses on reasoning, the sentimental sentiment has been running through

Do you have memories you want to forget? The opening question changed after reading The Memory Messenger. Some unforgettable memories make us painful. Some unexpected forgetting makes us fear. We want to cure the apricots that return to normal life with night phobia. We want to figure out which memories we have lost. I want to help others forget. Sad memory messengers, different positions, right and wrong judgments, memories are scattered in the afterglow of the setting sun, and the rest is just a choice
