1
00:00:08,967 --> 00:00:09,634
I've written it.

2
00:00:13,555 --> 00:00:15,264
My reply to Marius' email.

3
00:00:15,724 --> 00:00:18,406
Could you please check among A, B and C which is the better option?

4
00:00:19,394 --> 00:00:22,563
Option A is more business oriented.

5
00:00:22,564 --> 00:00:25,024
Option B is a little more friendly and approachable.

6
00:00:25,275 --> 00:00:28,319
Option C uses a lot of Emoji ☺

7
00:00:30,364 --> 00:00:31,656
But I was so surprised.

8
00:00:31,657 --> 00:00:34,158
The Marius I've been thinking about is the famous Tsugumi Ryosuke.

9
00:00:35,035 --> 00:00:36,619
Why has he never shown his face?

10
00:00:38,163 --> 00:00:41,874
Even searching the internet, I couldn't find a single photo.

11
00:00:44,002 --> 00:00:45,795
It's such a shame, isn't it?

12
00:00:46,129 --> 00:00:48,256
A face like that is sure to attract lots of fans, don't you think?

13
00:00:48,340 --> 00:00:49,006
Danger

14
00:00:49,925 --> 00:00:50,410
What?

15
00:00:50,434 --> 00:00:51,295
Danger

16
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:53,719
In English, it means "dangerous".

17
00:00:54,972 --> 00:00:58,608
Your relationship with him is in danger now.

18
00:00:59,768 --> 00:01:01,102
Why do you think so?

19
00:01:01,103 --> 00:01:04,522
Do you know what is a good woman in a relationship?

20
00:01:06,567 --> 00:01:07,108
Well, of course...

21
00:01:07,985 --> 00:01:10,319
Someone honest, tendern, and carefree.

22
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:11,279
Wrong answer.

23
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:12,693
Huh?

24
00:01:13,198 --> 00:01:13,823
Listen to me.

25
00:01:14,491 --> 00:01:17,824
The important thing in a relationship is to strike a balance between expectations and insecurities.

26
00:01:18,453 --> 00:01:20,246
Sugar and whips, pride and shyness.

27
00:01:20,872 --> 00:01:22,290
With this wonderful balance

28
00:01:22,708 --> 00:01:26,252
"Oh! This person is not like other women."

29
00:01:26,878 --> 00:01:28,254
"It's not easy to get her."

30
00:01:28,505 --> 00:01:31,841
Making the other person think that way is the first step to victory

31
00:01:32,384 --> 00:01:33,923
But what have you done?

32
00:01:36,071 --> 00:01:36,827
Uhm...

33
00:01:39,291 --> 00:01:39,973
Yes.

34
00:01:43,854 --> 00:01:44,520
Actually...

35
00:01:45,439 --> 00:01:50,026
I'm working on a project about French literature and I'm having a hard time finding the right documents.

36
00:01:51,695 --> 00:01:54,780
The library has a program where the staff helps with research, right?

37
00:01:57,534 --> 00:01:57,908
Yes.

38
00:01:59,202 --> 00:02:00,049
There it is.

39
00:02:00,663 --> 00:02:01,955
What a mess.

40
00:02:02,497 --> 00:02:07,001
When he says "staff helps with research" you have this look in your eye.

41
00:02:08,798 --> 00:02:09,458
Next.

42
00:02:10,297 --> 00:02:14,342
Are you able to check if I've got the right materials?

43
00:02:17,888 --> 00:02:18,661
And here.

44
00:02:20,144 --> 00:02:21,650
Even though you're trying to hide it.

45
00:02:22,059 --> 00:02:25,918
It's overflowing. You're overwhelmed with joy.

46
00:02:28,774 --> 00:02:29,857
I'm still safe, aren't I?

47
00:02:30,067 --> 00:02:31,233
Here's where you screwed up.

48
00:02:32,110 --> 00:02:34,362
Ok then, I'd be happy if you would contact me.

49
00:02:45,675 --> 00:02:46,141
Huh?

50
00:02:47,209 --> 00:02:48,542
Ahh, I can't watch this anymore!

51
00:02:49,753 --> 00:02:51,754
In addition to getting Marius' phone number,

52
00:02:51,755 --> 00:02:54,767
you find out he is a writer and look at him that way.

53
00:02:55,133 --> 00:02:58,344
Like and respect are two different things, and now you've screwed it up.

54
00:02:59,430 --> 00:02:59,971
If you say so.

55
00:03:00,011 --> 00:03:01,534
Aargh, you fool!

56
00:03:04,559 --> 00:03:09,105
Options A or B or C all don't matter.

57
00:03:12,526 --> 00:03:13,545
Listen to me carefully.

58
00:03:14,361 --> 00:03:18,239
Once you reply that email, your relationship with him will be a foregone conclusion.

59
00:03:18,949 --> 00:03:19,661
In other words,

60
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,720
are you the master or the servant?

61
00:03:24,079 --> 00:03:25,135
A servant?

62
00:03:26,509 --> 00:03:29,094
A woman who is only obedient has no charm.

63
00:03:30,210 --> 00:03:32,545
The so-called good women in relationships, are bad women.

64
00:03:33,338 --> 00:03:36,215
Bewitching the other party into submission, using evil magic.

65
00:03:36,258 --> 00:03:39,051
In French literature, this is the "femme fatale".

66
00:03:40,630 --> 00:03:41,676
"Femme fatale"?

67
00:03:55,861 --> 00:03:56,651
That's right.

68
00:03:57,446 --> 00:03:59,655
Until you become a femme fatale,

69
00:04:00,198 --> 00:04:02,450
you can't answer any of Marius' emails.

70
00:04:04,745 --> 00:04:05,578
No way!

71
00:04:17,307 --> 00:04:22,826
Chapter 4
Becoming a Bad Woman

72
00:04:24,222 --> 00:04:26,056
No, no, no. I can't do that.

73
00:04:26,558 --> 00:04:28,151
It's not that you can't do it, you have to do it.

74
00:04:29,394 --> 00:04:32,855
It feels a little uncomfortable with you staring at me all the time.

75
00:04:33,148 --> 00:04:34,565
You can't do it alone anyway.

76
00:04:35,233 --> 00:04:37,234
I'm here to give you advice.

77
00:04:38,487 --> 00:04:39,244
Look, he's coming.

78
00:04:46,453 --> 00:04:47,703
What should I say to him?

79
00:04:47,704 --> 00:04:50,347
Leave the front desk to the chief.

80
00:04:50,428 --> 00:04:50,848
What?

81
00:04:50,874 --> 00:04:52,553
It's fine, do as I say and hurry up.

82
00:04:52,667 --> 00:04:54,919
Chief, please take care of the front desk.

83
00:04:55,754 --> 00:04:56,962
Yes, hello.

84
00:04:57,756 --> 00:04:58,297
Hello.

85
00:04:59,633 --> 00:05:02,134
Let me see. Suzuki Ryosuke-san.

86
00:05:03,678 --> 00:05:05,513
Do you want to borrow this?

87
00:05:05,931 --> 00:05:06,847
Yes, I do.

88
00:05:07,390 --> 00:05:08,724
Did you see that?

89
00:05:09,643 --> 00:05:11,852
His face was saying, "I want to be with her".

90
00:05:12,479 --> 00:05:13,896
What are you trying to do?

91
00:05:14,940 --> 00:05:16,795
Do you not understand what I'm trying to do?

92
00:05:17,317 --> 00:05:19,235
No, I don't understand.

93
00:05:20,362 --> 00:05:23,030
Once an unpopular woman like me acts cold,

94
00:05:23,365 --> 00:05:24,782
I will be disliked and it will be over for me.

95
00:05:25,367 --> 00:05:28,001
Let's say you're going to the grocery store to buy tomatoes.

96
00:05:29,913 --> 00:05:30,476
What?

97
00:05:30,789 --> 00:05:32,915
As you're paying, the guy at the grocery store...

98
00:05:34,125 --> 00:05:35,863
shouts out "Great! I finally sold it!".

99
00:05:36,586 --> 00:05:37,852
What would you think?

100
00:05:40,549 --> 00:05:42,226
I'd feel like I'd lost out.

101
00:05:42,425 --> 00:05:44,874
He probably sold me some bad quality tomatoes.

102
00:05:45,178 --> 00:05:47,135
The same goes for love.

103
00:05:47,889 --> 00:05:49,586
Suppose you are a tomato.

104
00:05:49,637 --> 00:05:50,297
Yes!

105
00:05:50,642 --> 00:05:53,823
What if, on the other hand, the guy at the grocery store said to the customer,

106
00:05:53,937 --> 00:05:57,464
"Sorry, we're all out of tomatoes."

107
00:05:57,602 --> 00:05:59,775
What would the customer be thinking now?

108
00:05:59,901 --> 00:06:02,444
They would definitely prefer to buy tomatoes now.

109
00:06:02,445 --> 00:06:05,239
Even though they look and taste exactly the same,

110
00:06:05,532 --> 00:06:10,494
with a little change in attitude, ordinary tomatoes now feel like the best quality tomatoes.

111
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:15,572
I see you haven't understood what I'm saying.

112
00:06:17,711 --> 00:06:18,627
Look at this now.

113
00:06:28,805 --> 00:06:29,388
Hi.

114
00:06:31,516 --> 00:06:31,932
Hi.

115
00:06:36,479 --> 00:06:37,845
Stop messing around!

116
00:06:50,201 --> 00:06:51,785
How could you do something like that to me?

117
00:06:52,370 --> 00:06:55,289
What if he gets the wrong idea about me?

118
00:06:55,290 --> 00:06:57,693
That's exactly why we want him to misunderstand.

119
00:06:59,461 --> 00:07:00,461
That's ridiculous!

120
00:07:15,477 --> 00:07:17,728
Uhm... what happened just now?

121
00:07:21,775 --> 00:07:23,108
I'm sorry.

122
00:07:23,443 --> 00:07:26,320
Suddenly my legs got numb.

123
00:07:27,322 --> 00:07:30,282
I'm sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable.

124
00:07:32,535 --> 00:07:34,328
Did you bring a bento today?

125
00:07:36,748 --> 00:07:37,303
What?

126
00:07:39,042 --> 00:07:39,692
I'm...

127
00:07:40,418 --> 00:07:42,378
learning how to be a librarian.

128
00:07:44,506 --> 00:07:47,288
But there's a lot of things that are difficult.

129
00:07:49,844 --> 00:07:50,427
Okay.

130
00:07:52,180 --> 00:07:54,520
I was hoping Okabe-san could give me some advice.

131
00:07:58,019 --> 00:08:00,429
Let's have lunch together, what do you think?

132
00:08:03,530 --> 00:08:04,210
Huh?

133
00:08:24,170 --> 00:08:25,504
I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

134
00:08:36,933 --> 00:08:37,474
Thank you.

135
00:08:40,770 --> 00:08:41,228
Oh...

136
00:08:42,147 --> 00:08:43,313
Do you not like it?

137
00:08:44,649 --> 00:08:45,321
That's not it.

138
00:08:46,026 --> 00:08:48,147
I've never been to a place like this before.

139
00:08:48,403 --> 00:08:49,945
This is the first time.

140
00:08:56,536 --> 00:08:57,243
It's delicious.

141
00:09:03,334 --> 00:09:04,918
By the way, this meal...

142
00:09:05,462 --> 00:09:07,171
tastes better if you add garlic.

143
00:09:10,884 --> 00:09:14,428
Didn't you say you wanted to talk about work?

144
00:09:17,390 --> 00:09:18,348
Being a librarian,

145
00:09:19,059 --> 00:09:21,366
might seem like a simple job, but it's hard isn't it?

146
00:09:23,313 --> 00:09:23,729
Yes, it is.

147
00:09:24,731 --> 00:09:27,955
I thought it was just sitting at the front desk checking out books.

148
00:09:32,697 --> 00:09:34,990
Okabe-san, why did you become a librarian?

149
00:09:36,762 --> 00:09:37,376
Me?

150
00:09:37,428 --> 00:09:39,161
Yeah, you've never said why.

151
00:09:41,664 --> 00:09:42,581
I'm...

152
00:09:44,042 --> 00:09:47,961
more comfortable among books than with people.

153
00:09:48,922 --> 00:09:50,302
I like the smell of books too.

154
00:09:51,355 --> 00:09:54,566
Like a girl who smells lavender and travels back in time,

155
00:09:55,345 --> 00:10:02,601
I travel in time inside the worlds of these books, just by smelling old paper or ink.

156
00:10:06,397 --> 00:10:08,690
Did I say something strange?

157
00:10:09,818 --> 00:10:13,237
When it comes to books, you're always talking about them.

158
00:10:14,989 --> 00:10:15,989
I'm sorry.

159
00:10:16,574 --> 00:10:19,034
Why are you apologizing? Can you tell me more?

160
00:10:20,829 --> 00:10:22,728
Tell you more about me?

161
00:10:22,825 --> 00:10:23,425
Yes.

162
00:10:24,499 --> 00:10:25,999
Since you've read so many books,

163
00:10:26,417 --> 00:10:29,753
I'm sure you know a lot and have a lot to talk about.

164
00:10:31,881 --> 00:10:34,881
It would be nice for everyone, if you talked about different things.

165
00:11:17,468 --> 00:11:18,302
Welcome.

166
00:11:20,555 --> 00:11:22,890
Thanks for lending me your jacket.

167
00:11:23,474 --> 00:11:23,891
You're welcome.

168
00:11:26,019 --> 00:11:26,810
I was surprised.

169
00:11:28,646 --> 00:11:31,481
You look like you can drink. I didn't think you'd get drunk so quickly.

170
00:11:32,817 --> 00:11:38,071
Come on Ryosuke-san, what kind of woman do you think I am?

171
00:11:47,165 --> 00:11:47,915
Nishimaki-san.

172
00:11:49,131 --> 00:11:49,775
Yes?

173
00:11:53,421 --> 00:11:55,797
Is Okabe-san very busy these days?

174
00:11:57,634 --> 00:11:58,246
What?

175
00:11:59,390 --> 00:12:00,265
Okabe-san?

176
00:12:08,144 --> 00:12:08,980
What did you say?

177
00:12:10,438 --> 00:12:13,357
I mean, I was happy.

178
00:12:15,276 --> 00:12:16,639
Your lunch with Muraishi?

179
00:12:17,946 --> 00:12:18,611
Yes.

180
00:12:19,572 --> 00:12:24,785
Was I too frivolous? After all, I'm interested in Marius.

181
00:12:25,620 --> 00:12:26,745
Très bien!

182
00:12:27,872 --> 00:12:28,382
What?

183
00:12:28,752 --> 00:12:32,547
That's evidence that even if you're absorbed in a book,

184
00:12:33,044 --> 00:12:35,921
you also feel "it's good to be able to interact with people".

185
00:12:36,339 --> 00:12:37,214
I'm so happy.

186
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,132
That means you've grown.

187
00:12:41,469 --> 00:12:42,536
I'm glad.

188
00:12:44,764 --> 00:12:45,639
Grown?

189
00:12:46,266 --> 00:12:51,043
And I didn't expect to see the effect on Muraishi so quickly.

190
00:12:53,731 --> 00:12:55,107
What do you mean?

191
00:12:55,900 --> 00:13:00,279
It means you got him when you cornered him at the wall.

192
00:13:01,406 --> 00:13:03,490
Muraishi kept thinking about you while he was working.

193
00:13:04,993 --> 00:13:06,743
He couldn't stop thinking about you.

194
00:13:09,539 --> 00:13:11,498
Inviting you to lunch.

195
00:13:11,958 --> 00:13:13,959
It means that Muraishi's body,

196
00:13:14,961 --> 00:13:16,461
is being crystallized.

197
00:13:16,546 --> 00:13:20,966
You should build on this momentum to charm more men!

199

[New email]

200
00:14:03,092 --> 00:14:06,345
Tsugumi Ryosuke-sense, Thank you for your kind attention.

201
00:14:06,888 --> 00:14:09,931
I'm Igawa Mizuki from the literary arts editorial department of Akuyosha Publishing.

202
00:14:11,017 --> 00:14:13,727
What is the progress of the novel "Village without Sin"?

203
00:14:14,395 --> 00:14:16,146
I look forward to hearing from you.

204
00:14:24,655 --> 00:14:25,572
Good morning.

205
00:14:27,867 --> 00:14:28,950
Why are you here?

206
00:14:29,452 --> 00:14:31,203
I'm sorry if I scared you.

207
00:14:31,552 --> 00:14:34,393
I thought if I waited here, I could meet you early in the morning.

208
00:14:35,458 --> 00:14:36,707
Were you waiting for me?

209
00:14:37,001 --> 00:14:38,791
Yes, all this while.

210
00:14:40,776 --> 00:14:41,763
All this while?

211
00:14:42,465 --> 00:14:44,716
I gave you my card the other day, right?

212
00:14:45,426 --> 00:14:48,367
I've been waiting to hear from you ever since.

213
00:14:51,432 --> 00:14:52,474
I'm sorry.

214
00:14:52,850 --> 00:14:54,476
You must be very busy at work.

215
00:14:55,186 --> 00:14:58,438
I'm sorry for asking you to help me when you're so busy.

216
00:14:59,023 --> 00:15:00,607
It's okay.

217
00:15:01,859 --> 00:15:04,694
Even though I wanted to contact you so badly,

218
00:15:05,655 --> 00:15:07,072
I was told not to do so.

219
00:15:08,574 --> 00:15:10,854
Someone is preventing us from contacting each other?

220
00:15:11,369 --> 00:15:12,376
Who is it?

221
00:15:14,497 --> 00:15:16,390
I won't let anyone stand in between us.

222
00:15:19,752 --> 00:15:21,044
Marius!

223
00:15:22,839 --> 00:15:25,549
Stop that and start charming him.

224
00:15:28,594 --> 00:15:30,178
Sorry, we'll talk later.

225
00:15:41,482 --> 00:15:43,233
Look!

226
00:15:43,526 --> 00:15:46,653
Hiranuma-sensei is following me on Instragram.

227
00:15:48,116 --> 00:15:49,756
Humph...

228
00:15:50,950 --> 00:15:51,939
Why the "humph"?

229
00:15:52,535 --> 00:15:54,011
You don't seem to be in a good mood.

230
00:15:54,745 --> 00:15:55,704
No, I'm not.

231
00:15:56,956 --> 00:15:58,809
What's going on between you and Ryosuke-san?

232
00:16:02,628 --> 00:16:04,577
By the way, Saito-san...

233
00:16:05,851 --> 00:16:08,186
What's going on with Okabe-san these days?

234
00:16:08,426 --> 00:16:10,461
She's ignoring us.

235
00:16:11,304 --> 00:16:14,014
She's getting so close to all these men.

236
00:16:14,432 --> 00:16:16,155
Doesn't it bother you to see that?

237
00:16:18,394 --> 00:16:19,325
It's not bad.

238
00:16:19,896 --> 00:16:22,698
It's good for young people to have relationships with each other.

239
00:16:23,941 --> 00:16:25,828
Is that what you really think?

240
00:16:27,862 --> 00:16:30,324
I can't stand it at all.

241
00:16:37,121 --> 00:16:38,955
"The Truth About the Mantai Incident".

242
00:17:16,035 --> 00:17:18,203
Do you like it plain or with the powder?

243
00:17:21,249 --> 00:17:21,998
I'm fine either way.

244
00:17:22,625 --> 00:17:23,861
Then I'll mix it with powder.

245
00:18:02,421 --> 00:18:03,876
Go ahead. Eat.

246
00:18:05,042 --> 00:18:07,419
Then, I'll help myself.

247
00:18:14,218 --> 00:18:15,900
What are you doing?

248
00:18:16,217 --> 00:18:18,314
Did you listen to my advice or not?

249
00:18:18,681 --> 00:18:21,667
I said "charm him".

250
00:18:22,143 --> 00:18:24,511
What are you going to do after you've had your fun with Muraishi?

251
00:18:25,001 --> 00:18:25,873
I won't do it again.

252
00:18:26,314 --> 00:18:27,439
Seriously.

253
00:18:28,024 --> 00:18:29,970
That's why women can't have it.

254
00:18:31,902 --> 00:18:34,988
Wasn't it you who said,

255
00:18:35,364 --> 00:18:39,075
"to be able to interact with people", was a sign of growth?

256
00:18:41,203 --> 00:18:41,910
I suppose.

257
00:18:42,997 --> 00:18:44,818
Then what are you so angry about?

258
00:18:45,750 --> 00:18:46,817
Are you jealous?

259
00:18:48,878 --> 00:18:50,278
What makes you think I'm jealous of you?

260
00:18:50,546 --> 00:18:53,715
You've always had the special ability to communicate with me directly.

261
00:18:54,091 --> 00:18:56,384
Now that Muraishi is in the picture, you're jealous, aren't you?

262
00:18:57,261 --> 00:18:59,752
Th-that's ridiculous!

263
00:19:00,890 --> 00:19:03,600
I'm worried about Marius.

264
00:19:05,478 --> 00:19:07,339
Isn't Marius your true love?

265
00:19:10,983 --> 00:19:13,862
Or are you getting attached to Muraishi?

266
00:19:16,822 --> 00:19:18,050
I don't really know.

267
00:19:18,783 --> 00:19:21,652
It's the first time I've talked to a man in a normal way.

268
00:19:23,818 --> 00:19:24,818
Well...

269
00:19:25,706 --> 00:19:26,373
In any case...

270
00:19:27,208 --> 00:19:30,585
Your attitude will slowly have an effect on Marius.

271
00:19:38,052 --> 00:19:39,171
How about this?

272
00:19:40,352 --> 00:19:41,227
Beautiful.

273
00:19:42,207 --> 00:19:44,787
She loves lilies. Please put some lilies in it too.

274
00:19:45,559 --> 00:19:47,016
Just as I expected.

275
00:19:47,561 --> 00:19:51,630
He doesn't seem to like the fact that you're so close to Muraishi.

276
00:19:52,183 --> 00:19:52,683
Eh?

277
00:19:53,275 --> 00:19:53,900
No way.

278
00:19:54,402 --> 00:19:55,259
You don't say?

279
00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,451
In other words...

280
00:20:00,491 --> 00:20:03,827
Is it finally time to answer his emails?

281
00:20:04,745 --> 00:20:05,818
Isn't that right?

282
00:20:08,708 --> 00:20:12,621
This is a big step forward. This is great!

283
00:20:14,714 --> 00:20:17,090
That's great!

284
00:20:50,332 --> 00:20:51,209
Is this for me?

285
00:20:51,500 --> 00:20:53,745
I heard it was your birthday.

286
00:20:56,756 --> 00:20:59,128
My birthday was yesterday.

287
00:21:01,886 --> 00:21:03,789
I'm sorry, I got the date wrong.

288
00:21:08,017 --> 00:21:08,836
I'm just kidding.

289
00:21:09,685 --> 00:21:10,516
It is today.

290
00:21:11,896 --> 00:21:13,354
I didn't think you'd remember,

291
00:21:14,190 --> 00:21:15,396
my favorite flower.

292
00:21:16,358 --> 00:21:17,317
I'm so happy.

293
00:21:18,319 --> 00:21:20,236
Thank you. It's nothing.

294
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,460
Isn't today a day off?

295
00:21:35,461 --> 00:21:37,166
I have something to say to you.

296
00:21:38,047 --> 00:21:39,202
What do you want to talk about?

297
00:21:39,257 --> 00:21:42,509
There was a strange phone call the other day, wasn't there?

298
00:21:42,968 --> 00:21:47,472
Oh, the one from Aomori, wasn't it? I think they were looking for someone called Madela or something like that.

299
00:21:47,681 --> 00:21:50,058
Could it be the Mantai of the Mantai Incident?

300
00:21:50,590 --> 00:21:51,217
What?

301
00:21:51,363 --> 00:21:53,075
Please have a look at this.

302
00:21:57,410 --> 00:22:03,710
{\an8}Professor Makoto Matai apology conference. Dinosaur fossil forgery case.

303
00:21:53,687 --> 00:21:56,314
I'm sorry. Please explain in detail.

304
00:21:56,315 --> 00:21:57,774
What do you think? - How do you plan to take responsibility for this?

305
00:21:57,775 --> 00:21:59,067
Please apologize properly.

306
00:21:59,068 --> 00:22:00,151
Why did you lie?

307
00:22:00,152 --> 00:22:03,488
This is all my responsibility.

308
00:22:03,489 --> 00:22:06,199
I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you.

309
00:22:08,577 --> 00:22:10,597
Do you remember, 24 years ago?

310
00:22:10,955 --> 00:22:12,956
The Mantai incident in Aomori.

311
00:22:12,957 --> 00:22:17,126
Of course, I remember it. It was a sensation all over Japan.

312
00:22:17,628 --> 00:22:21,297
But I don't think it has anything to do with our library.

313
00:22:21,298 --> 00:22:23,758
Anyway, I felt something wasn't right.

314
00:22:24,510 --> 00:22:26,043
It's nothing to do with us.

315
00:22:46,448 --> 00:22:47,699
"Village without Sin"

316
00:22:49,243 --> 00:22:50,952
That's a very good title.

317
00:22:53,455 --> 00:22:54,396
I think this...

318
00:22:55,249 --> 00:22:58,501
could be a novel that transcends reality.

319
00:23:00,004 --> 00:23:00,962
Thank you very much.

320
00:23:02,256 --> 00:23:03,089
So it's true.

321
00:23:04,091 --> 00:23:06,134
Using the subject of scandal,

322
00:23:06,719 --> 00:23:09,387
detailing the psychology of the people involved,

323
00:23:10,055 --> 00:23:12,223
you can enhance a unique world view.

324
00:23:13,726 --> 00:23:14,392
I think...

325
00:23:15,519 --> 00:23:17,937
this is Tsugumi-sensei's real strength.

326
00:23:19,423 --> 00:23:20,269
Is that so?

327
00:23:20,349 --> 00:23:22,417
Please finish the novel as soon as possible.

328
00:23:23,633 --> 00:23:24,073
Eh?

329
00:23:24,653 --> 00:23:26,166
I believe that with the right content,

330
00:23:26,196 --> 00:23:29,007
I'm sure it will be the most fascinating novel ever written.

331
00:23:31,128 --> 00:23:33,725
And you've made a great protagonist.

332
00:23:34,788 --> 00:23:36,523
It's a great entry point.

333
00:23:37,541 --> 00:23:38,735
Tsugumi-sensei?

334
00:23:41,211 --> 00:23:42,267
Thank you very much.

335
00:23:42,291 --> 00:23:44,499
It's been a long time since you've published a new book.

336
00:23:46,008 --> 00:23:47,267
I'm looking forward to it.

337
00:24:02,426 --> 00:24:07,430
So, before you reply to Marius' email, I'd like to confirm one thing with you.

338
00:24:08,656 --> 00:24:09,517
What is it?

339
00:24:10,407 --> 00:24:11,991
If you take this step,

340
00:24:13,035 --> 00:24:16,996
your relationship with him will no longer be a fantasy.

341
00:24:17,539 --> 00:24:20,802
It will become a reality that will leave you with mixed feelings.

342
00:24:22,044 --> 00:24:25,233
You may even wish you didn't make a move on him in the first place.

343
00:24:29,343 --> 00:24:31,256
Even so, you have to move forward.

344
00:24:42,705 --> 00:24:43,639
I...

345
00:24:52,282 --> 00:24:53,157
I...

346
00:24:55,577 --> 00:24:58,488
I can never go back...

347
00:24:58,759 --> 00:25:00,028
to my previous world.

348
00:25:02,668 --> 00:25:04,127
Surrounded by books,

349
00:25:06,052 --> 00:25:08,694
I can't go back to the world where I was satisfied with that.

350
00:25:10,718 --> 00:25:14,067
I can no longer go back.

351
00:25:20,352 --> 00:25:22,058
I want to know more...

352
00:25:24,189 --> 00:25:25,970
I want to know how far I can go...

353
00:25:26,942 --> 00:25:28,802
I want to know how many possibilities there are.

354
00:25:32,489 --> 00:25:33,239
I want to...

355
00:25:35,284 --> 00:25:36,858
know more about myself.

356
00:25:51,133 --> 00:25:51,798
That's great.

357
00:25:52,968 --> 00:25:56,763
The next step will be dating techniques.
