"I feel like everyone's voices are so distant, so distant. I can't hear everyone's voices clearly."

Listening to the sounds from the water's surface, gurgle, gurgle, gurgle, the voices of the Right Ears become so muffled that I can't distinguish whether they're coming from the right ear. So, I imagine the upper bodies of the Right Ears being on the water's surface. I remember before the crowdfunding campaign for the picture book, the fundraising organization provided me with a video script. One segment requested me to portray the narration from the Left Ear. At that moment, I found it strange because in my imagination, the Left Ear wouldn't produce human voices. Perhaps it would be more like instrumental sounds, similar to the teacher's voice in Snoopy. Anyway, it wouldn't be human speech. But later on, I couldn't think of a better solution, so I followed the script because for the crowdfunding to succeed, it was necessary to lower the difficulty of understanding for the readers. I imagined that if the Left Ear really had to speak, it would probably be speaking underwater, with a mix of bubbles and gurgling sounds!
