His tenacity
Added 2025-06-12 14:18:19 +0000 UTCこのご老人・・、財力があるだけではなかった・・・。見た目とは裏腹の・・これだけの「体力」の持ち主が・・、入院する必要などどこにあるというのでしょう・・？それとも、老い先の短さからくる「執念」なのだろうか・・？いずれにしても・・法外な報酬を断る理由は・・、平凡な暮らしをしていた私には・・もうなかった・・。 This old man... was not only wealthy... Contrary to his appearance... why would someone with such "physical strength" need to be hospitalized...? Or was it an "obsession" that came from knowing that he didn't have much time left in his old age...? Either way... there was no reason for me, who lived an ordinary life... to turn down such an exorbitant fee...
