He raised a meaningless question. In " White Night Walk," Ryoji Kirihara confessed to the police after killing Kirihara Yosuke, so there would be no subsequent events.

Was it? Liangsi killed him in self-defense. He was too young at that time and didn't know the law? On April 4th, 1973, the Supreme Court had already declared that the crime of killing a relative was against the law. In the novel, Ryoji killed his father on October 12th of that year.

Answer 1

I killed someone. It was the best thing I've ever done.

This was what Ryoji Kirihara said to the police in " White Night Walk." Although this sentence itself was meaningless, it brought out the theme and plot of the entire novel. In the novel, Kirihara Ryoji and Yukiho Karasawa were mutually dependent. They planned everything together, including the murder and covering up the crime. And the 'I killed' in this sentence meant that they had transcended their personal dependence and reached a state of mutual domination. Therefore, the meaning of this sentence was to reveal their close relationship and their determination to cover up their crimes.
