Behind the Scenes: From Pirates to Tokyo

Chapter 41
Although he couldn't see what was happening in the Pacific Ocean, Toru Mizushima estimated that the navies of Japan and the United States were busy.

It's just that this is what the sea beast did, so what does it have to do with Toru Mizushima?

He is still more interested in studying the world treasures obtained from the animalized world.

【Guardian of History】

【World Treasure】

[This world treasure can enlighten cultural relics with historical background and endow them with spirituality and power. The strength of spirituality and power depends on the survival time of the cultural relic and the condensed belief. 】

After getting out of the ocean, Toru Mizushima carefully read the message of "Guardian of History".

The description of the system is also rather vague. What kind of spirituality and power are they?The time of existence is understandable, but how to judge the unity of faith?

For example, two cultural relics with a history of thousands of years, one is known to everyone, and the other is newly excavated, so the power of the former will be stronger?

Mizushima Toru felt that if he just thought about it, he would scratch his head and couldn't figure out why. No matter how much he said, it would be better to just try it out.

He thought of an excellent experiment in Tokyo-the statue of the loyal dog Hachiko.

The Hachiko statue was erected for a legendary loyal dog in Japanese history for several years.

An Akita dog named Xiaohachi will watch his owner go to work at the door, and then pick him up at the nearby Shibuya Station in the evening.One night, Hachi's owner died of a sudden heart attack while working, and he did not return to Shibuya Station as usual.But Hachi still faithfully waited in front of Shibuya Station for nine years until his death.

And one year before its death, the government built a statue of Hachiko in front of Shibuya Station for Hachi - but the existing statue is only a restoration. The earliest statue was melted down because it was a precious copper product. into a war of aggression.

This statue is at Shibuya Station in Shibuya District, and you can see it as soon as you exit Hachiko Exit.

Although it is less than a hundred years since the bronze statue was erected, it is definitely second to none in Tokyo when it comes to "cohesive faith".

Every Japanese who comes to Tokyo for sightseeing will take a group photo in front of the loyal dog Hachiko, which has simply become a customary rule among the people.

And even if you are a native of Tokyo, when you make an appointment with your friends to go to Shibuya District, you will set the appointment location at 'Hachiko-mae', after all, it happens to be a central point, the most prosperous area.

But if you insist on looking for things with "historical background", naturally there are more museums, but there are many monitoring equipment in the museums. Compared with Shibuya, the flow of people is not large, and it is easy to leave traces. Toru Mizushima immediately passed the museum option.

After much deliberation, Hachiko, the loyal dog, is better. The average flow of people passing by the intersection in front of Hachiko will reach 3000 people per minute... no exaggeration.

"Why haven't you come here yet? I've been waiting for more than half an hour, hurry up!"

"Do you have time? Can you take a photo with us?"

"Miss, are you waiting for someone standing here? Can you leave a contact information?"

There are all kinds of people gathered in front of the statue of the loyal dog Hachiko, and many people like to touch Hachiko when they pass by.

Because of being touched by hands for many years, Hachiko's body was blackened, and the surface of the copper casting was also pitted.

There are also a lot of drunks sitting on the floor with a pile of beer cans beside them-this is a hangover drunk, which is really common here in Shibuya.

The news of the ship sinking in the open sea today is played from time to time on the big screen at the intersection not far away.

But this kind of news that few people died is really worthless, so few people pay attention to it.

If a cruise ship carrying more than a thousand people sank, it might still occupy the headlines of the news for a while.

Looking at the Hachiko statue not far away, Toru Mizushima slowly clenched the 'Guardian of History' necklace hanging around his neck.

A faint light that only Toru Mizushima could see enveloped the statue of Hachiko.

Immediately afterwards, the all-copper statue of Hachiko blinked.

"Huh?" A young man who was taking photos of his girlfriend put down his camera and looked at the portrait of the loyal dog Hachiko behind his girlfriend in confusion.

"Why didn't you take pictures? Is my pose not good-looking?"

"No, it's not this...it's..." Pushing his glasses, the young man holding the camera said uncertainly, "It's the Hachiko behind you who seems to have blinked."

"Huh? Hachiko seems to be blinking?" His girlfriend clicked his tongue in surprise, "You must be dazzled."

"Sniff~"

Just when she suspected that her boyfriend was dazzled, she suddenly felt an itching sensation on her neck.

It felt like a puppy in the countryside was sniffing at her palm, and its little black, wet nose was arching back and forth.

However, behind her is the statue of Hachiko, the loyal dog. Where can there be a dog?

But wait a minute... isn't the loyal dog Hachiko just like a dog?
Just when her thought first appeared, the boyfriend holding the mobile phone in front of her crazily backed away like a ghost.

The reactions of the people around were not too strong, and many people were so frightened that they fell to the ground.

"Hachiko, Hachiko is alive!"

"Hachi is moving!"

Amidst the yelling, the foreign girl who took a photo with Hachiko turned her head in horror.

Hachiko, whose surface has been touched with bumps, is sniffing her hair with his nose, distinguishing the smell of humans like an ordinary Akita dog.

But this is not an ordinary Akita dog, it is Hachiko who has been dead for more than half a century... No, this is not Hachiko, this is a man-made bronze statue!
How could the bronze statue come to life?Reality is not some magical movie.

"Eight eight eight eight..."

With Hachiko's nose pressed against her nose, the girl passed out on the spot.

"Wang?!"

Seeing the fainted woman in front of him, Hachiko was startled instead, and jumped off the pedestal that was as tall as a person.

"what!"

People around the pedestal avoided Hachiko one after another, their faces full of horror.

Although Hachiko is not big, just the size of a normal Akita dog, and the Hachiko in history is also a docile and non-aggressive image, but knowing it is the same thing, looking at Hachiko who stepped out of the legend That's another story.

The fear of the unknown is far greater than the legend of Hachiko they have known since childhood.

"Crack! Kick!"

However, some people in the crowd got bolder and raised their mobile phones to take pictures of Hachiko again and again.

As if reacting, someone pointed the camera at Hachiko and started recording.

"Look, have you seen the Hachiko in the video? Yes, it is at Shibuya Station, the center of Shibuya District, that Hachiko statue has come alive!" Hachiko, while turning his body, included the entire street scene in the camera lens.

Take street scenes to prove the credibility of his shots.

"Look at this street view, look at the name of the platform, Hachiko, Hachiko has really come back to life!"
