＜容疑者Xの献身＞ by 東野圭吾 ＊＊＊

It's a perfect crime and he didn't ask any return to her. Can she respond with his devotion to her? But his passion and devotion could not overcome her moral sense.

＜Out of The Silent Planet> by C.S.Lewis ＊＊＊
沈黙の惑星を離れて マラカンドラ via 中村妙子translation
Our existence is so tiny for a split second compare with universe. How can we live under unavoidable destiny? Humankind may not be able to live on the Earth someday. But though prof. Weston wants to continue human DNA, he planed to hijack a planet is called Marakandra in case of that day. And he tried to hand over prof.Ransom to creatures in Marakandra. On the other, prof. Ransom is taken to Marakandra by prof.Weston and meets a lot of creatures there and appreciates their society. And he lives as a moral human under his destiny.There are supernatural forces that I allow it may be possible or myth C.S.Lewis think in this story. But even if Weston find a planet that no creatures live without any sacrifice, should it be blamed,too? Or thinking of pioneering includes science or something materials is already immoral? Although C.S.Lewis criticized imperialism. This story is difficult for me.
