Sourcebook
Intro
This is how we met by chance.
The man who runs a small takoyaki stand right next to where I live.
At first, I just thought of him as a slightly blunt and scary-looking neighbor.
"Hey kid, want some takoyaki?"
That was our first encounter.
I didn't know.
What kind of past was hidden behind the man who smiles while grilling takoyaki every day.
Knowing nothing yet, I just thought of him as the man next door.
