-CHAPTER 1: HOPE ESTHEIM-
A job design called a journalist, I hear many people talk about every day. The opponent of the coverage is wide regardless of age or sex, ranging from a powerful person who moves the nation to a passing-through child. Talks that various people talk about are varied and all are attractive. I enjoy work of coverage like mid-hobby and, if I speak of saying that as a female journalist he says so much, it is selling.

　Apart from work, I am chasing after a single "mystery". It was a phenomenon that could not be explained by common sense. At first I thought it was due to mind, but as soon as I became interested, I found out more incomprehenent agreement. I got crazy about that mystery and I wanted to unravel with my own hand. To do that, we had to listen to as many people as possible.

　So I always ask the people who meet in the interview always the same question. That's a strange question. Most people are taken in and they do not answer correctly, but many people seriously talk about it. When collecting such testimonies "mystery" has grown more and more.

　Tonight I will head for an interview. On this social situation and political economy, a hard interview with a certain knowledgeable person. After having talked about serious work, let 's try "usual question" to chat.Will he answer? No, if he would definitely answer, I was secretly convinced.

　He is a researcher in the field. His name is Hope Estheim, who is an known person nationwide, but raises his achievements in a wide range of fields related to humanity and society, and enters a great deal of attention in academia.

"- Thank you for your valuable time today.

　After bowing and concluding the interview, I breathed quietly. Thanks to fulfilling interview, there was comfortable fatigue with satisfaction.

"No, thank you too."

　Hope Estheim's stunning face remains calm. He looked relaxed throughout the day, touched me closely to her for the first time, and he frankly responded to questions I was not going to answer.

　Nonetheless, he was not the only person in peril. Words were always soft, but his insight to look at the reality of this society had a sharp sharpness. Despite being still young, a quiet weight was felt, as though it had survived for many years in a world that does not pass, such as a sweet ideal.

　I am excited to meet interesting people. Let 's do "usual question" at once. How would he answer him?

"Well ... ... Are you still in time? If you're not troubled, there is something I'd like to ask you, it's not coverage but private."

"Well, here you are, what is it?"

"Do you remember" another world "?"

　This was "usual question".

　He only faintly narrowed his eyes to see something. It was a polite reaction. It is natural that if you ask such a question abruptly, you will face confusion or become frightened face. Some people make a mistake for "silly things".

　He kept silent. I'm planning to judge from listening to detailed explanation. I succeeded the words.

"Is it alright to say that it is a memory of a different life in a world different from this world, it is an event that will revive into a dream repeatedly without an experienced remembrance ... Even if you do not know, someone can not forget, someone I do not know but the face of a nostalgic person, the image which floats on my mind at first glance ... It is like a memory of the previous life.
