   We found some of new sources whose soft X-ray component is highly
   absorbed in ASCA Large Sky Survey project. This target, LSS1988+317,
   is the the most strongly absorbed one of them. It is very likely one
   of type-2 AGNs. Moreover it is possibly type-2 QSOs. Only a few
   type-2 QSOs are detected till now, though the number of type-2 QSOs
   must be more than that of type-1 QSOs, according to the unified
   scheme of AGN. This observation is a marvelous chance to detect the
   new type-2 QSO and to study it. We also got the image of the region
   around LSS1988+317 in R and B band, and detect several optical
   candidates of it already. We will spectroscope and identify them.
   This observation by X-ray and optics will give a large impact on the
   theory of AGN and in addition, on the theory of X-ray background.
