●Message from Atsuko Asano

I heard a voice. It was Nezumi's voice.
"I decide where I live and where I die. I decide, not you. Let's stop meddling unnecessarily."
So, they have already met and begun to weave their destiny.
If that's the case, then I too will reach out to them just one more time, really just one more time. I will try to touch their lives with these hands.
I will try to fight as the author of "NO.6". I'm going to take on those boys I longed for so much.
Right now, that's all I'm thinking about.
After 14 years, I'm bringing you 'NO.6' once again.
