Chapter 148 Silence and Foreshadowing

November 17, 1937.

The gloomy sky pressed down on the head and blocked the sunlight, making people feel uncomfortable even if they opened the window.

At this time, on the streets of Tokyo, Japan, large groups of old people, women and children stood there indifferently, without crying or making a fuss. They seemed to communicate with everyone in silence.

Whenever the police came to drive them away, they would leave obediently, but soon they would appear on another street, still standing silently.

This phenomenon has lasted for more than half a month.

A police officer came forward to ask the reason very early, and the answer was very simple, "Stop the foreign war, I want my husband, I want my son, and I want to have enough food!"

In today's militarized Japan, such behavior will be directly labeled as heresy and not conducive to national unity.

Therefore, at the beginning, most people were arrested for this.

After a joint interrogation and investigation by the police and the military, they collected a large number of ugly photos of their soldiers' aggression and atrocities from the people, and rumors like "the gods cannot forgive the crimes committed by blaspheming life, and will eventually punish them" were almost heard by every woman and child in the country.

It is said that this is a warning given by Amaterasu in a dream.

The veil of whitewashing was torn off, and the ugly evil deeds were completely exposed, which made those people in the military so angry that they smashed the table and immediately asked people to investigate the source of the photos and rumors, and did not hesitate to use tough armed means, and did not forget to send people to continue brainwashing the people.

However, what they could not have imagined was that this kind of silent concept has been circulating for nearly six years. The false and empty militaristic incitement not only failed to make them believe, but also confirmed the crimes of these people.

However, the sense of superiority and inferiority in the bones of Japanese women prevented them from making direct resistance, so the action of "Silence Japan" somehow appeared silently and quickly spread and was adopted by everyone.

Humans are social creatures, and the herd behavior driven by the group is often terrible. It is both a spiritual suggestion and a behavioral kidnapping, especially for Japanese women who have few opinions in this era.

When this behavior gradually spread throughout Japan, the Japanese authorities really withdrew their greedy eyes from the other side. They vaguely realized that someone in the country might be making trouble, but the climate had already formed and it was too late.

If it was only a small part, they could forcibly suppress it with force and then repeatedly brainwash it to appease it, but now the scope of the crowd is too large, and there are simply not so many troops and police forces to solve it violently.

Looking at the people who were about to explode in silence, the Japanese government had to use the method of delaying and appeasing to persuade them for the first time, at least not to stop the factory and stop the processing.

Most Japanese women at this time were indeed obedient, and the effect was good.

At least the domestic supply and demand did not stop, but they did not know that this drama had just begun. The various actions of the Japanese government made more people pay attention to the sentence: God cannot forgive and will eventually punish God.

Some people may think this is too exaggerated.

Let me briefly talk about the domestic situation in Japan at that time.

Since 1929, the global economic crisis has dealt a heavy blow to Japan, with national economic losses, industrial shrinkage, and agricultural emergency. In order to get rid of the economic crisis, Japan has increased its external expansion and used war to plunder resources to make up for domestic economic losses.

In the early days of the war, Japan acquired a large amount of resources and wealth by occupying China's northeast region, which to a certain extent alleviated the domestic economic pressure.

This made the Japanese upper class taste the sweetness. In October 1931 and May 1932, the "Frum Moon Coup" and "May 15 Incident" that broke out in Japan completely accelerated Japan's transformation to FXSism, and also marked that Japan's political system began to evolve towards military dictatorship.

However, as the war continued and expanded, in order to continue to support it, Japan began to carry out national conscription in the country. According to historical records, during this period, 70% of men between the ages of 15 and 60 in Japan were pulled into the army.

At the same time, in order to ensure the supply of military supplies on the front line, Japan also implemented the "joint logistics system" to allow women to participate in military production.

This model of universal participation in the war has caused Japan to pay a huge price in the war, and the domestic economic burden has become heavier and heavier. The living standards of the people have continued to decline. Due to the cruelty of the war, many families have lost their loved ones, and social emotions have become more and more pessimistic and depressed.

It can be said that Japan during this period was like a silent powder keg. Even if most of them were women, they would explode after being suppressed to the extreme.

But the person who led all this behind the scenes did not want to see the scene of women in Japan exploding. All he wanted was to plant a foreshadowing in everyone's mind and leave a hint.

He wanted to leave a psychological mark on all Japanese of this generation.

On the streets of Tokyo, Kudo Kazuya, who retracted his gaze, had a complicated expression.

His friend Yamashita Ichiro came closer, took a look at the situation outside, and advised: "Kudo, since you and I don't want to get involved in this, then listen less and watch less."

"You make it sound easy, do you have to cover your eyes and ears every day?" Kudo Kazuya looked into the distance and said casually.

Yamashita Ichiro smiled, "Then go see something else, listen to some other sounds, such as going to Asakusa, Ueno, Shinjuku..."

Speaking of this, Yamashita Ichiro reached out and closed the window.

Just then, Kudo pushed against the closed window, and because of the excessive force, the black and white chrysanthemum totem on his long sleeves swayed.

"Kudo, you...?" Yamashita Ichiro was surprised.

"Yamashita!" Kudo Kazuya frowned and pointed to the southwest, saying, "Is there something wrong there?"

Looking in the direction of the finger, Yamashita Ichiro saw what the other party pointed to, which was the symbol of their Japanese cultural spirit, Mount Fuji.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Why can't I see it?" Yamashita Ichiro stared for a while, except that he felt that the mountain was much clearer today, he didn't see anything wrong.

"I know! It's snow!" Kudo Kazuya reacted and quickly asked his friend for confirmation, "Then the snow on the top of the mountain, I remember it was still there yesterday?"

Yamashita Ichiro also realized a little. Although the snow on the top of Mount Fuji will increase and decrease every year, it is now the end of November. How could the snow on the top of the mountain disappear?

Unless? !

A possibility emerged in his mind, which made him subconsciously shudder.

"You've thought of that, too, right?" Kudo Kazuya grabbed his friend.

Yamashita swallowed his saliva, "Please, Kudo, this is too crazy, it's impossible. If you tell others about this at this time, you will go to the military prison. Those people are all crazy. Forget it, let's..."

"Yamashita!" Kudo Kazuya interrupted directly. He grabbed the other's shoulder and said firmly: "We have to go and see, at least to confirm whether it is true or not!"
