While "Hikaru" is not the Hikaru he once knew, Yoshiki must admit that his entity has become a friend in his own right. But his true identity remains a mystery... even to the impostor himself! When their research into town's history brings them to the library, the boys discover an unsettling clue about the mysterious happenings in the region. Though, the question still stands of what "Hikaru" and the Nounuki-sama mentioned in Hikaru's note might be - and whether they aren't in fact one and the same...

In the distant spacefaring future, humanity has colonized the stars. Most humans have become completely dependent on the all-powerful artificial intelligence known as EDEN, whose command extends across seven galaxies. Humans who are unable to interface with EDEN live in isolation in the Eighth Galaxy, which is ruled by the tyranny of the strong. One day, Eighth Galaxy resident Lu Bixing fishes up a mysterious man whom he eventually comes to know as Lin Jingheng, who is on the run and hiding a menagerie of secrets. They quickly become ensnarled in a sprawling drama that will shape humanity for years to come.

In the empire of Great Xia, civility is a mask, courtesy a weapon—and love, perhaps, the most dangerous of all.

Chu Mingyun, Grand Commandant and master of his own ambition, rules half the capital with a fan in hand and a smirk that rarely fades. Known for his cunning, feared for his temper, and trailed by shadows both loyal and lethal, he moves through the imperial court like a chessmaster plotting his endgame.

Su Shiyu, Grand Secretary and paragon of virtue, is his equal in every way—measured, refined, and maddeningly unreadable. His name alone is enough to silence a room, and his smile, courteous though it may be, conceals more than it reveals.

A minister’s suicide. A cryptic message. A rumour that shakes the court to its foundations. As secrets brew beneath silken robes and ceremonial smiles, Chu launches a quiet campaign of subterfuge… and seduction. But behind Su’s mild gaze may lie a sharper mind than anyone has dared to suspect.

Every glance is a gambit, every compliment a calculated move—and in the end, only one question remains:

Who’s playing whom?

Open the wrong door… and you may never return.

One ordinary day, Lin Qiushi discovers a black door in the corridor outside his flat—a door that shouldn’t exist. When he steps through, he finds himself in a world governed by a deadly set of rules, where cryptic villagers speak in riddles, and the only way out is to take their obscure “tests”. The reward for passing: a key. The penalty for failure: death.

From haunted villages to blood-soaked puzzles, Lin must solve increasingly strange and grotesque mysteries just to live another day. But he’s not alone. Enter Ruan Nanzhu—gorgeous, enigmatic, and unexpectedly lethal—who shows up in his room one night and whisks him into a secretive organisation of seasoned door-crossers.

With each door they pass through, the truth behind the world grows darker, and the line between ally and monster begins to blur.

Grim, gripping, and laced with razor-sharp banter, Kaleidoscope of Death is a danmei survival thriller where logic is your only weapon, trust is your greatest gamble—and laughter might be your last defense.

“The initial abnormality was his cat at home refusing to let him pat.
Lin Qiushi realised that incongruity began to permeate everything in his surroundings.
Then one day, when he pushed open the door to his home, he found that the hallway he was familiar with had turned into an extended corridor.
At the ends of this corridor, there were twelve metal doors, each identical to each other.
This is how the story began.”

　　《字花》117期「漫畫變」

　　117期專題「漫畫變」，重點在於文學與漫畫是可以互相進入、互相改變對方的兩種語言。因此我們把整期分成兩段，方向正好相反。

　　上半段是「讓文學走進漫畫」。我們找來視覺創作者，直接拿已經存在的文學作品交給他們，請他們用漫畫的方式重新演繹。重點不在於「忠不忠於原著」，而在於觀察：當一段純文字的故事被放進格子、被線條切割、被翻頁節奏牽引之後，它會失去什麼，又會多出什麼。同時，我們在兩篇文學漫畫中間放了一組詩，這組詩的靈感來自另一部經典漫畫，目的是讓詩成為圖文之間的第三種聲音，看看詩能不能在漫畫的空白處長出新的呼吸。

　　下半段則是「讓漫畫走進文學」。我們請三位寫作者用散文回望自己與漫畫的私人歷史。他們不是在做書評或排行榜，而是在說：漫畫曾經在什麼時候、用什麼方式，比小說更快、更深地碰觸到他們的記憶、創傷和自我認知。透過這三篇極私人的文字，我們想呈現的是：漫畫並不只是娛樂或次級敘事，它同樣可以承載最沉重的生命經驗，而且往往用比純文字更直接的方式做到。

　　整期做下來，我們只想問一個問題：當文字與圖像不再各自守在自己的領域，而是真正交換位置、互相改寫的時候，我們習慣的閱讀方式、敘事方式，甚至我們對「故事」的定義，會不會也跟著改變？這場實驗沒有標準答案，我們只想把過程攤開來，讓讀者自己去感受「變」的發生。

“How To” of Community Work offers a rare, behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to build and sustain community in Singapore. Based on over a year of interviews, research, writing, and design, this book gathers the insights of 38 individuals—community workers, social workers, grassroot leaders, social entrepreneurs, citizen facilitators, policy makers, and academics—each shaping how we connect, collaborate and mobilise care.

From navigating complex relationships to working alongside individuals from low-income or marginalised backgrounds, this book doesn't shy away from the everyday challenges of community work. With real-life Challenge Scenarios, reflective Thinker Exercises, and a hands-on Guide, it captures the lived realities and quiet wisdom of those doing the work on the ground.

“How To” of Community Work is both a heartfelt passion project and a practical resource. Supported in part by the Good Design Research grant from the DesignSingapore Council, it documents the know-how that rarely gets written down—but is vital for anyone seeking to do community work meaningfully.

Cosmopolitan Singapore—emblematic of globalised capitalism—usually calls to mind a number of clichés: orderly, clean and green, a shopping and business paradise, and a model of sound economic management. Tourists, journalists and passing businessmen cast an absent-minded glance at the local society, noting that the food is excellent, e-communication works well and armoured tanks are absent on street corners. But after 17 years living here, the author shows a different side of Singapore: looking at her from the grassroots. Beyond his personal atypical story, he draws with light strokes of the brush, a picture of a warm and generous people, much less passive than one is often given to think. He also describes the difficulties faced by civil society, and tracks the rapid social evolution in the city-state as it is confronted with major challenges: a nose-diving demography, cramped territory with an infrastructure which cannot be extended indefinitely, and massive immigration which is increasingly resented by the local population. Most of all, Fr. Arotcarena places on record the work and significance of the Geylang Catholic Centre, which makes this priest in Geylang himself a legend.

The author, TEO SOH LUNG was imprisoned without trial under Singapore’s notorious Internal Security Act between 1987 and 1990. In solitary confinement for more than two years, she drew inspiration from little living creatures that lived in or visited her cell. Lizards, spiders, ants, crickets, beetles, toads, and grasshoppers were all welcomed to her cell and closely observed! They were her inspiration. Sharing food and lodging with them, she drew numerous drawings and composed rhymes and songs about them. She was particularly fond of one long‐time resident, a lizard. As much as she was observing it, she was aware that it too was observing her!

Of the 62 original poems in English, 22 had also been translated into Chinese by Lim Pai.

In the 1980s, Singapore’s first opposition member of parliament since 1966 was elected. A group of political observers sensing this “shift in the wind”, decided to lay bare the ideological threads that linked the PAP’s policy choices, governance approach, and by extension, the current social structures formed by the ruling government. The result was a book providing an overview of the local socio-political landscape. Written almost 40 years ago when a historical shift in Singapore’s democracy seemed imminent, the same hope echoes today as we see the opposition gaining more seats in Parliament after the recent 2020 General Election. The critiques of the government’s authoritarian tendencies and elitist meritocracism are even more relevant today, after more than 58 years of nation building under one party.

To most outsiders, Singapore is a much sought-after place to live in. But beneath the surface calm and orderliness, there is a slew of rules and laws to keep the people hushed and quiescent.

Disobedience to any law even if it is patently unreasonable, is not tolerated. And the full weight of the­­ state is brought to bear on the fearless who dare to speak their minds. They thus tread the thin line between exercising their rights and breaking the law.

Survivors of Operation Spectrum — the alleged Marxist conspiracy — speak up in this volume. For many of them, this is the first time that they cast their minds back to 1987 and try to make sense of the incident. What they did in that period was meaningful and totally legitimate. Their families and friends share the same view.

The detainees were subjected to ill-treatment, humiliation, and manipulated television appearances. Under duress, and threatened with indefinite imprisonment without trial, they had to make statutory declarations against their will.

It is hoped that with this publication, Singaporeans will know what actually happened and decide for themselves if there was a national security threat that necessitated the mounting of Operation Spectrum.

This is a bilingual collection (in Malay and English) of poems by Said Zahari when he was incarcerated under the Internal Security Act in Singapore from 1963 to 1979. Some of the original poems were written in Malay and some in English.

Said made observations on prison life, commented on the social-political events of the day and on his unjust 17-year imprisonment without trial. His poems tell of a life lived in unwavering service and commitment to his beliefs and struggle for a new society based on true independence and compassion for all.

The 72 heart-felt poems leave us a picture of the personal sacrifices which many had made in Singapore’s anti-colonial struggle. They put a face to those whose narratives had been scrubbed out by political chicanery. This book is a legacy for Singaporeans to treasure.

　　《生活在欺瞒的年代：傅树介政治斗争回忆录》是作者花了大量时间，研究英国档案局解密资料，李光耀回忆录及傅树介医生的个人回忆撰写而成。作者娓娓道来，风起云涌的五、六十年代，蓬勃壮大的新加坡左翼运动，如何在李光耀的阴谋策划及串通英殖民地政权之下，一次一次被打击，左翼领袖逮捕及被监禁，左翼势力最终在冷藏行动和杯葛大选后走向没落。

　　这本共314页的回忆录从傅树介外祖父陈嘉庚的一句话“天下兴亡，匹夫有责”开始，接着叙述他参与马大社会主义俱乐部，与新加坡左翼领袖林清祥认识的经过。他也回顾亲身经历的1959年大选和宪制谈判期间的政治局势。冷藏行动被逮捕后，傅树介前后被扣留长达17年，获释后开始整理历史，从事揭露真相与文本抗争的工作。他先后参与撰写与编辑《华惹时代风云》、《1963年新加坡冷藏行动》及编辑新版《我们天空的彗星—历史上的林清祥》。

　　傅树介医生是少数坚持至今，不屈不饶通过其他管道斗争的李光耀同代人，他也是最有资格撰写真正人民斗争历史的资深左翼领袖。此书撰述的新加坡历史，对学者和普通市民，都同样具有珍贵的参考价值，也展望一个更民主和更公平的新加坡。在新加坡人思想束缚的解放的过程中，这类书是非常必要的。

This is the historical memoir of Dr Poh Soo Kai, a medical doctor and a founder member of the People's Action Party. Here he tells the story of his incarceration as a political prisoner under Singapore's notorious Internal Security Act, and the anti-colonial struggle which defined the years after the Second World War.

Poh was born in Singapore in 1930. He is the maternal grandson of prominent businessman Tan Kah Kee. After the Japanese surrender in 1945, he continued his studies at Raffles Institution and entered the University of Malaya in 1950. He was a founding member of the Socialist Club in 1953 and became its second President from August that year till the following year. Poh was one of the eight members of the Fajar editorial board charged with sedition in 1954. He graduated three years later with a degree in Medicine. Poh became acquainted with Lee Kuan Yew, who was the legal advisor for the students during the Fajar Trials, during his time in university. He subsequently became a founding member of the PAP in 1954. When the party split in 1961, he left to join the Barisan Sosialis as its Assistant Secretary-General. He was arrested and detained without trial under the Preservation of Public Security Ordinance during Operation Coldstore in 1963. He was arrested again without trial under the Internal Security Act in 1976 and 1982.

This is a moving and detailed account of the author's tribulations while under detention without trial.

Singapore lawyer Teo Soh Lung has written this careful account of her experiences and feelings when detained in Whitley Detention Centre 21 from May 1987 to 6 September 1987, and from April 1988 to 1 June 1990. Accused of involvement in the alleged "Marxist Conspiracy", Soh Lung discusses many legal aspects of the case, including Singapore's banning of London QC Anthony Lester and her various Appeal attempts. She tells of the regime and her physical and emotional suffering, as well as the strategies and beliefs which enabled her to retain her integrity and balance in circumstances intended to subdue her. Relevant official documents are appended.

　　首度剖析中國加入WTO以來，
　　「美國設計、台商帶路、中國製造」，
　　從互相扶持的共生關係，到彼此牽制的難解困局，
　　25年後，美中台的企業、政治與所有人，
　　將面對如何的挑戰與風險？

　　「這是有史以來關於蘋果最精彩的書，也是最出色的中國主題書，更是科技類書的顛峰之作。」——班·湯普森，《Stratechery科技電子報》作者
 
●美國夢——蘋果誕生，從「美國製造」開始
　　1976年， 21歲的賈伯斯、26歲的沃茲尼克在自家車庫創立蘋果公司，以Apple II打響名號，初期大多在美國製造與組裝，是純粹「美國夢」的體現，僅部分產能外包日本。1985年賈伯斯被趕出蘋果後，公司創新力衰退，製造效率又落後戴爾、康柏，蘋果在財務泥淖中賣掉製造工廠，放棄垂直整合，開始大舉外包，從日本、韓國到台灣代工廠。

●台商帶路——賈伯斯回歸，郭董帶路前進中國
　　1997年賈伯斯回歸，推出「Think Different」（不同凡想）廣告力挽狂瀾，iMac需求強勁，超出韓國代工負荷，此時富士康董事長郭台銘主動致電蘋果營運總裁庫克，自此開啟長期合作，「美國製造iMac模具需12週，富士康只要25天，品質還出奇的好！」到了iPod時代，富士康展現「中國速度」——從一片空地到量產工廠僅需半年。有廉價勞動力和規模效益，工廠何必續留美國？表象的中國製造奇蹟，實質上是美國產業空洞化與藍領失業潮。

●中國製造——富士康壯大，紅色供應鏈崛起
　　2007年iPhone問世，複雜設計需要動員中國數十萬工人組裝。蘋果把代工廠利潤擠壓到極低，富士康換取的是蘋果長年投資與持續輸出的技術與訓練，蘋果工程師長期駐廠培訓，帶來了「隱性知識」的轉移。中國政府隨即以資金與政策扶植本土企業——立訊精密、比亞迪等「紅色供應鏈」迅速崛起，取代富士康與台灣代工廠的地位。2021年，蘋果前200大供應商中，中國企業數量首次超越台灣。

●中國反噬——從開放合作到養套殺
　　中國政府以創造就業、技術學習為國家戰略，鼓勵地方官員與外商深度合作，提供土地、基礎建設與勞動力。蘋果為確保供應鏈穩定與中國市場銷售，漸失談判籌碼。中國政府對蘋果的態度從歡迎轉向施壓。蘋果不得不一次次妥協，下架敏感 App、遵守數據政策，甚至在敏感議題上保持沉默。在 2019 年，華為全球智慧手機出貨量超越蘋果 ……這一刻，蘋果不再只是掌控者，而是受制於中國市場的巨人。

●未來怎麼走——泥足深陷的蘋果
　　川普總統勝選和上任是基於「美國優先」政策，公開要求蘋果回美製造。蘋果遂啟動供應鏈多元化計畫，尋找中國以外的新基地，印度被視為最有潛力的替代者。然而印度製造生態尚未成熟，中國由國家主導的勞動力分配和高效率，在其他民主國家難以複製；勞工制度與工會文化不同於中國，加上中國政府報復與民間抵制，使轉移過程充滿阻力。

●未來怎麼走——台灣的角色
　　台灣代工廠：包括富士康、和碩已在印度積極將勞力密集型的最終組裝業務轉移到東南亞和印度。
　　關鍵的台積電：台積電是全球最先進晶片的製造者，負責iPhone的「大腦」。若兩岸衝突升高，將對全球供應鏈造成災難性衝擊。即便台積電在亞利桑那州設廠，晶片仍須運回台灣進行先進封裝，凸顯供應鏈轉移的複雜與限制。

◎本書特色
1.《晶片戰爭》後最受矚目科技史詩巨作！媒體一致盛讚
　　《金融時報》蘋果產業記者揭露蘋果、台商與中國的錯綜複雜關係，《晶片戰爭》克里斯‧米勒甫讀初稿即盛讚並推介出版，甫出版即獲傳統及網路媒體一致好評，《紐約時報》、《經濟學人》推薦為年度最佳書單。
2. 揭開蘋果創意神話的另一面——關注蘋果、關注科技產業者必讀
　　賈伯斯的願景、艾夫的設計、矽谷的創新，只是蘋果品牌傳奇的一半面目，本書揭開了另一半。那些讓人驚嘆的極致設計，其實是靠著中國製造大軍和低毛利供應鏈，以手工方式製造複雜且難以自動化的精細設計。更具矛盾的是，蘋果一邊宣揚「不同凡想」的自由精神，一邊向中國政治壓力妥協而自我審查，顯示品牌價值與現實利益的衝突。
3.全球最強品牌如何養大中國對手——企業管理者的必修課
　　蘋果追求極致低成本、極致高效率、極致高利潤，壓榨供應鏈卻輸出工程團隊協助培訓與最新技術轉移，最後成為培育華為、小米等本土品牌的土壤。蘋果原本只想降低成本、提升效率，卻無意間養大了能與自己競爭的強敵。
4.蘋果設計vs富士康帶路vs中國製造——理解台商供應鏈的關鍵視角
　　從郭台銘領導的富士康等台商曾憑靈活與執行力成為蘋果崛起的關鍵推手。但在中國政府補貼與資本挹注下，本土企業如立訊精密、比亞迪以更低利潤甚至虧損換取市場，取代了台商位置。這是產業轉型的縮影，也是全球化的代價。
5. 蘋果供應鏈多元化的挑戰——地緣政治新焦點
　　隨著中國政治施壓與美中角力加劇，蘋果成為地緣政治的「人質」。即便產能轉往印度或越南，中國的基礎設施、產業鏈與勞動力優勢，短期內仍無法替代。台積電晶片的核心技術難以複製，一旦兩岸緊張升高，將全球供應鏈動搖，台積電的亞利桑那晶圓廠成為全球經濟和地緣政治的關注焦點。
6. 產業與政治的世紀攻防戰——精采絕倫的故事
　　作者遍訪兩百餘位業內人士，以記者的敏銳與小說家的筆法，帶領讀者親臨現場，深入每個細節，令人一頁接一頁，欲罷不能。蘋果發展史在眼前展開，這是一個產業巨頭與中美政壇如何在全球權力版圖中角力的精彩故事。

What's wrong with this story?

After being kidnapped, Kimizuka, Natsunagi, Saikawa, and Charlie have learned the truth about Siesta's death... or have they? A girl who looks just like the deceased appears and informs them that the footage they've been investigating contains an error. As they hunt for an answer to a mystery that even Siesta couldn't uncover, the group will learn what it truly means to inherit the legacy of an ace detective. Though the detective may already be dead and the truth of her passing revealed, it's still early for the epilogue...

Who were you to her? Who was she to you?

While out and about one day, Kimihiko Kimizuka and his three friends are kidnapped by...Siesta herself?! But they soon learn there's more to the story as the long-forgotten truth of the detective's death is revealed. Will this be the clue that finally unlocks the secrets of Kimihiko's part?

When the story begins without its hero

Kimihiko Kimizuka has always been a magnet for trouble and intrigue. For as long as he can remember, he's been stumbling across murder scenes or receiving mysterious attaché cases to transport. When he met Siesta, a brilliant detective fighting a secret war against an organization of pseudohumans, he couldn't resist the call to become her assistant and join her on an epic journey across the world.

...Until a year ago, that is. Now he's returned to a life that is normal and tepid by comparison, knowing the adventure must be over. After all, the detective is already dead.

　　《我星国我街道我散步》是三年前出版的《我星国我街道》的续篇。共邀请了三十余位本地作家与创作者，以街道为灵感，以散步为方法，重新走入他们所熟悉、亲近或陌生的新加坡街道。

　　其中也有摄影师参与，他们以镜头代替笔触，用光影和构图捕捉街道的情绪与质感，让读者从另一个维度重新理解我们以为熟悉的街道。这些影像与文字互为注解——有时并行，有时牵引——共同构成了一幅更立体的城市肖像。

　　一座城市若要被深深铭记，必须先由文字来安放。街道一旦被写下，它们的象形、指事、会意（回忆）才真正找到栖身之所。

　　而当街道与散步相遇，唯有走出去，整座城市才会向你走来。

　　感谢以下作者和摄影师，为本书提供了精彩的文章和照片。
