This is the first time I have seen Otoichi's work, I have long heard that he is a japanese up-and-coming genius whose reputation and sales are comparable to Higashino Keigo, Miyuki Miyabe, and Kotaro Isaka, and I have just seen a lot of Toshi's works, which can be comparable to Higashi-shu, which is enough to make people look forward to Otoichi's works.
The style of Yi Yi has a completely opposite dual personality, everyone calls it "White Yi Yi" and "Black Yi Yi", the warm and healing Bai Yi Yi, the dark and terrifying Black Yi Yi, no matter which one, is very distinctive.
"Only You Hear" is a popular healing masterpiece of Yi Yi, mainly based on loneliness and warmth. The book consists of 5 short stories: "Only You Hear", "Hurt", "Knight Underwear Jun", "Song of Flowers", and "Lie Girlfriend". After reading it, it is very unexpected, although Yi Yi does not have the wonderful reasoning technique of Uncle Dong, nor can he write the ultimate loneliness to the extreme like Carson McCullers. However, the two short stories in the book, "Only You Hear" and "Hurt", are particularly attractive. As Carson McCullers said in Heart is a Lonely Hunter, I've been to many places, but I've only met very few of us. Such a small number of "we" is indeed vividly reflected in "Only You Hear" and "Hurt".

Liang once believed that her classmates were sincerely praising her, and finally accidentally learned of the hypocrisy of her classmates, and she realized that she took other people's words too seriously. Treat the polite words of others, Liang can not react immediately, if the other party opens the skylight to say jokes, it is fine, but after all, people's hearts are always difficult to guess, and the injuries they have suffered before have also made Liang gradually choose silence. As Haruki Murakami said, if anyone likes to be lonely, it's just that people are afraid of disappointment. She saw through the ridicule of others, and her polite and hypocritical appearance also cast a thick veil of fog over her small heart, and finally she chose to completely arm herself.
In this way, she lived without friends.
Everyone in the classroom could connect with each other through the mobile phone network, but she didn't. Lonely inside, she has always longed for her to have a mobile phone. Fortunately, the author satisfies the cool in another way. The most wonderful setting of the novel is that the protagonist can use his brain and ideas to call directly, without mixing with any false emotions. This kind of cool can not only have the mobile phone of dreams, but also no longer be annoyed by the complexity of human nature. In the end, Liang also found the only friend who could hear her heart, but the only friend died to save her. Although the ending is not very satisfactory, it is fortunate that the lonely cry is heard. As Zhang Ailing said, "In this city, I believe that there will be a person who thinks about the same thing, with a similar frequency, at the lonely exit of a certain station, and arranges to meet me." "In this world, there will always be someone who is willing to cherish you, and finally Liang also chose to bravely face his own life."
Keigo Higashino's "Fen Shen" mentioned such a sentence: In fact, everyone is looking for their own fen body, and because they can't find it, everyone is lonely. Friends leave, Liang is finally only a person, this is probably the so-called fate, loneliness is the fate of people, fortunately, Liang once experienced warmth.
In fact, it is lonely and ordinary cool, it is you, it is also me, she is the silhouette of us among all sentient beings.

Zhou Guoping once said: "Loneliness is the fate of people, love and friendship cannot eradicate it, but they can soothe it." ”
Two children, whom no one loved, lived by the little glimmer of light that was given to each other, comforting each other.
"I" was ridiculed for the unspeakable scar on his back, beat his classmates, and was transferred to a special education class that gathered a bunch of problem students.
"I quickly fell in love with this class, where there were no hostile people or people who would laugh at others."
Here, "I" meet Anri, a friend with superpowers that can divert the pain of others. Anri can transfer the pain of others to himself, and he can also transfer his own pain to others, but he has never suffered all the pain alone, even if he is deceived by others while transferring the pain, he has never regretted it, because he clearly understands that he shares the happiness while sharing the pain of others. It's just that this spirit of silent sacrifice is simply unknown to others, and no one will be grateful, except for "me."
Why does Anri only have this ability to divert the pain of others? Maybe that's the self-sacrificing ability that only a pure soul deserves.
In the end, Anri left a sentence of "I am a child that no one wants anyway", and chose to bear all the pain alone to say goodbye to the world. "I" understand that Anri is not easy, and I also cherish the days with him, and in the end I choose to share the pain with him, that is, I choose to share the pain, the pain in his body is divided into "I" half, and "I" live together.
Although life is not satisfactory, we who are born in the cracks will always usher in a happy moment of light.

In "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter", I saw the ultimate loneliness, and the chilling feeling of loneliness after reading it was really painful. In these two short stories, B Yi wrote about loneliness and beauty.
We live in a limited space, there are only a few people who can know and understand, once such a few people can not understand our needs, we choose to close the door, and therefore have the time and space to choose loneliness, so as to have the opportunity to attract people in the same frequency, feel the most sincere love and companionship. This is probably only a person who has experienced absolute loneliness to taste the happiness of life.
