ANOTHERMR.K.BEAN!

This is a little serious story about one of my mail friends.

One day she was sexually molested in the morning train.

The molester was a boy of seventeen.

The mail friend was a victim, not culprit. However, she had to spend

three hours for making a report to the police, four hours for police

interview, and she was taken five pictures by the policeman.


She said that she was injured mentally not only by what the molester

boy did to her but also by what she experienced in the police

station. She also said the juvenile laws doesn’t work well to

prevent juvenile delinquency at present.

She means they are too soft for the underage.


I can imagine how she felt and feel something frustrated hearing

her story. I think police station might be only among the bureaucracy

and doesn’t consider what the victims feel and what they want.

I think that the juvenile laws of Japan are not strict enough when

they have to be, and they are too strict when they must not.

Let me introduce Kotatsu, Japanese traditional warmer.
It is a small table with around 1square meter’s wide, four legs and electric warmer inside the table, and the futon, the quilt to cover the table to keep the warmth inside the kotatsu.

We use in winter, putting our legs inside the table, having an orange and watching TV with our families or neighbors.
Especially it is nice to use it in the night when it snows silently.

Since kotatsu is rather small, when you put your legs in it, your legs touch the other one’s.

There, you can have some communication with others.
Sometimes you might have love affair with your boyfriend or girlfriend. Though I have never experienced.

In this way, Kotatsu helps you to enjoy chat or to have communications in your families or your lover.

But recently, less people of Japan uses this Kotatu.
Therefore, we Japanese have less conversation with others.
It can be one of the reason of increased cruel accidents and crimes of these days.

Won’t you use Kotatsu for your warm family or for lovely talks with your sweetheart?

I was excited by the nobvel.

It is a suspense novel. Outline is like this.

A famous psychological counselor was a boss of the hospital
andwas a guru of cult. She attempts to overthrow the government by the terrorism.
She controls the excellent pilots of fighter of Self Defense
Forces by hypnotism and operating their brain.
Targets were Diet building of Japan and civil air crafts. Heroine of this novel was a excellent pilot of Self Defense forces scouted by this guru as a counselor.
She knows the boss is the guru of the cult just before the terrorism
was about to be carried out.
She saves Japan from the attack by steering jet fighter by herself.

The writer of this novel is also a psychologist and knows well about
the hypnotism He knows about systems of the launch of missiles and
jet fighter, too. So it seems very realistic.
It reminded me of the saline attack of subway in Tokyo by Aum cult
religion about ten years ago.

This will recommendable to you who feels boresome everyday like me.

Some knows that this novel was screened.
