Men without women: Kimino (Part 2)
Continuing from the previous article, because there is a disaster that cannot be stopped even by mysterious characters, the hero must go to refuge. There is no need to explain what the disaster is, and there is no need to set up what will happen and how to overcome it. It's not a kingly way of writing, so you don't have to set what tricks the protagonist will use to defeat the big devil. But exactly how to take refuge is better, but it is unknown. In short, a person hides, and it is unclear when or where to hide. Maybe Murakami-sensei wanted to write unclearly. Because it is an evacuation, I try not to have contact with people, so the description will be very limited, hide in a hotel and then face the wall or watch TV bored.
It's been a strange journey, and Moonlight thinks it's concise and powerful. Why do so much pretense? I just wanted to hide anyway, didn't I? It's all about enjoying solitude, isn't it? Maybe after the disaster is over, everything will be calm again. Just let the author express what he wants to express, no matter how many questions there are in the middle, don't care about it. When you do this yourself, you can appreciate each story well. Just like the famous setting after 70,000 years in the Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms, it is very impressive. The human world does not know how many times reincarnation has occurred, but it is still possible to fall in love!
So, take advantage of this reading time to enjoy short stories. It happens to be in line with Moonlight's segmented reading practice. Moreover, Moonlight also likes the layout of the bar, and also wants to challenge it to see what it will be like if it is written like this? What kind of mysterious power will appear? While watching, the mind will want to come up with a story.
Because you don't have any expectations, you can get some gains instead. If you really like it, you can write it yourself to suit your stomach! Although it is also limited by time, at least what I wrote will not be disgusting. If you don't write it yourself, then someone else will write it. It's always impossible to write everything you want to write as you want. The starting point for this is to create two together! The creativity of others exists in their own works, but from the perspective of learning, there is always room for rewriting. There are many possible ways to write a story centered on a bar. Perhaps the author also considered a variety of ways to develop it, and finally decided on this way of writing.
And those possible writing methods that have not been developed can also be presented in other works. Like Moonlight, it is also a good practice to try to arrange it into a new novel work for the plot that cannot be included in the part-time Earth God. Moonlight feels that the atmosphere presented by Kimino's short story also fills in the lack of being able to go out to eat at will due to the epidemic. Whether it is a bar or a coffee shop, it is also a good place for cultivating inspiration. Just sitting in it, you can have more inspiration!
