"Era cosΓ¬ evidente che si trattava di un suicidio d'amore che sui volti degli agenti aleggiava un senso di delusione. Senza un crimine non avevano un bel niente da fare.

Tratto da: "Tokio Express" di Matsumoto Seicho. 😊 πŸ“šβ˜•οΈπŸ–ŠοΈ. #tokioexpress #matsumotoseicho #adelphiedizioni #letteraturagiapponese
