"Do you think throwing money around solves anything?" The man's voice echoed across the square. The crowd fell silent. On stage, candidate Ken Hirata dismissed the skepticism with a sharp look. "No. This isn't consumption. It is investment." He proposed the 'Children and Youth Future Fund.' A system not purely reliant on tax money, but one that invites private capital to invest directly in the next generation of Nagasaki. "A city that drives away its youth has no future. But if we build the soil for them to challenge the world, both people and money will return. My experience at the Financial Services Agency taught me one thing: change the flow of money, and you change the lifeblood of the city." Under the twilight sky of Nagasaki, his words hung heavy like a prophecy. This was no mere campaign promise. It was perhaps the last gamble for a fading regional city to survive.
