“WALL” Ritsu Chiki Price: ¥840 #RitsuChiki #Ritsu_Chiki #Books #JapaneseLiterature/Novella/Stories What is this giant wall? Can anyone escape the terrifying WALL that makes people disappear? One summer day in 202X, an elderly Russian couple praying at a cemetery on Shikotan Island noticed a translucent veil approaching from the hilltop. Curious, the two held hands and touched the wall, and their arms "erased" —. This giant wall, named "Wall," which erases only the physical bodies of those who touch it, slowly advances at a rate of about 20 km per day, eventually landing in Hokkaido, then within range of Honshu, gradually swallowing people as it moves west. There is only about a month before it reaches the Tokyo metropolitan area after landing on the mainland. Truth and rumors spread mixed together, and Japan is thrown into a panic. What the "Wall" implies is a natural disaster or epidemic that plunges humanity into the abyss, a force that "divides" people due to economic disparities, a merciless "divine punishment," and an extremely "equal existence." Humans must confront this mysterious weapon that suddenly appeared with science and human intelligence. The "WALL" seems to laugh at the humans who bare their true nature, regardless of good or evil. What is the ending? A new work by the author. A suspenseful sci-fi mystery that you'll read in one sitting.
