A 20-year-old woman named Kinoshita Rinko was fired after accepting responsibility for a coworker’s error during her probation period. She explained her decision by saying that loneliness is painful when there is no one to offer support. While returning home, she encountered a crying woman and felt unable to leave her alone. Convinced by Rinko’s reasoning, the woman requested that she take her place to safeguard her brother, Shinomiya Ryou.
