In April 2020, a report published by the Japanese media caused extensive discussion among the people. A Japanese old lady died alone in her home, or the neighbor found that something was wrong, so he called the police and learned of the old woman's death.
Surprisingly, this old lady, who has never been alone and does not seem to have any relatives or friends, has left a legacy of as much as 34 million!
The police wanted to contact the old lady's surviving relatives through the identity information of the old lady to deal with the old woman's body and this inheritance, but found that the old lady's identity information was actually fake!
For a time, the identity of the old lady became confused, and this sky-high inheritance could not be disposed of for a while.

1. Lost in life
Since the old lady lived alone at home, when the police found the body, they immediately issued a notice to let the old woman's family know the news and deal with her body and inheritance.
However, the notice was issued for a long time, and no contact was received from the old woman's family, so the police had to investigate on their own.
When the police first wanted to find the legal heir for the old lady, they wanted to verify the identity of the old lady first. So the police began to collect evidence from residents near the old woman's home, and at the same time searched for relevant information about the old woman's residence.
According to the neighbors near the old lady's house.
The old lady had hardly had any conversation with her nearby neighbors since she moved to this place, and everyone knew very little about her.
And the old lady has always been alone, obviously old, but she has not seen her children or partners, and she has not even seen any good friends.

The old lady goes out alone every day to buy vegetables and cook, obviously she is old, and many things are not enough, but she can only do it herself and live a life of being alone.
The neighbor also found that her mailbox was full of letters and did not clean up, which was not in line with the old lady's usual elegant and tidy style, and felt that something was wrong, so she called the police.
It was found that the old lady had died alone in the house. Therefore, no one in the vicinity knew who her surname was, let alone what relatives she had.
This is really confusing, how can a woman with such a rich inheritance seem to have no social relations, and finally die alone at home, only to be found by neighbors, and even no one to collect her body?
In the end, the police found her name from an old lady's notebook and weekday letters, Chizuko Tanaka.
When the police contacted the landlord of the house rented by the old lady, they also got the answer, and it was a person surnamed Tanaka who rented the house, which should be the Tanaka Chizuko.

However, just when the police thought things could be resolved smoothly and helped the deceased find the surviving family members, they found out. The name Chizuko Tanaka does not exist in the national hukou system! It's a fake name!
So the police had to split the names and conduct a census of names related to "Tanaka" and "Chizuko", which was a big project.
But despite all this, the police were unable to find the names that matched the old lady's identity. They had to contact Chizuko's landlord again, and after further conversation with the landlord, the police learned that the "Tanaka" who rented the house was not Tanaka Chizuko, but a Mr. Tanaka.
However, the rent out of this house has been very long, and the father of the current landlord who has traded with Chizuko Tanaka is not much, so the current landlord does not know much, only that it was Mr. Tanaka who rented the house at that time, and Mr. Tanaka did not bring any female relatives to live in. After the death of the former landlord, few people remained to know about it.

The current landlord only has a vague memory, and the later Ms. Tanaka has never caused any trouble, and she pays the rent on time every year, so for Mr. Landlord, whether it is Mr. Tanaka or Ms. Tanaka, there is no impact, and the identity of the tenant is not investigated.
But this discovery also makes the whole thing more confusing, what is the relationship between this Mr. Tanaka and Chizuko? When the police searched Ms. Kuzuko's residence, they found many photos of her youth.
It is not difficult to see in the photos that Chizuko was also a good-looking woman when she was young, and in these photos, a man appears next to Kuzuko many times.
They left a group photo together under the cherry blossom forest, in the shrine, and various places, and Chizuko always had a warm smile on her face when she was next to this man.
So everyone speculated that the man in the photo might be Mr. Tanaka, who rented the house in the first place. But where is this Mr. Tanaka now, and why didn't he accompany Chizuko?

It is not even known that she died without appearing. It is not so easy to find out who is acquainted with Chizuko and find out her origins just by looking up some photos.
The police can only start from other places and look for other clues. Emperor Tian did not live up to the painstaking people, and finally let the police find some clues!
A policeman finds a small box in the corner of Chizuko's closet filled with stale items. Looks a little old.
One of them is a seal engraved with her surname, which reads the word "Okinjong", maybe this is Chizuko's real surname? Fortunately, this surname is not a big surname in Japan, and there are only more than a hundred people with the surname Ofura, which is very convenient to screen.
Finally, after an investigation by the police, a lost woman of similar age to Chizuko was found. The police found an elderly man closest to the missing woman to learn the story, and the mr. Akira said that the missing woman was his second aunt. Before his mother died, he had been thinking about his sister who had been lost since childhood, but he had not been able to see him until his death.

It has always been an unfulfilled wish in her heart. Therefore, after the death of his mother, Emperor Huanzong also tried his best to find this second aunt, wanting to fulfill his mother's unfulfilled wishes, and at the same time doing filial piety in front of the second aunt, after all, he was his mother's own sister.
However, after many years of painstaking searching, there was no news about the second aunt, and finally he could only give up.
After hearing that Chizuko may be his second aunt, Akira felt happy on the one hand, and regretted on the other hand, and it was hard to get the news of the second aunt, but when he died, he could only say goodbye forever.
As for how to confirm that this Chizuko is the second lady of the Okizong family, Mr. Okinjong is not sure.
He had only heard about his second aunt in his mother's mouth since he was a child, and there were no photos or documents or other things in the family to let him know what his second aunt looked like, and he himself was already older, and the elders who knew that the second aunt at that time were now all dead, and there may only be some things left in this world that he still knows about the second aunt.

2. Go through ups and downs
Although Mr. Okinjong could not confirm whether his second aunt was the deceased Lady Chizuko.
However, the police found a photo of Mr. Okinjong, the son of Kuzuko's eldest sister, and the daughter of Kuzuko's younger sister in the photos left by Chizuko! These photos have been well preserved by Kuzuko, and it can be seen that these photos were cherished before the end of life.
However, judging from these photos, Chizuko knew that she was still alive and blood relatives, so why didn't she contact them, but instead grew old alone, to the point where no one even knew about her death? The Qiuzong family has not been a very wealthy family, so Mr. Qiuzong's mother is also a very simple lady, who has been ordinary all her life.
The few photos that remain also smile modestly, wearing ordinary Japanese kimonos, living an ordinary life, and only her sister, who has not been reunited, has made her regret when she died.
However, from the photos left by Chizuko, it can be seen that Chizuko was very confident when she was young.

Dressed in avant-garde fashionable clothes, she smiles generously at the camera, her face full of collagen, in stark contrast to her sister!
But how can the daughter who came out of the same family be glamorous and the eldest daughter be invisible? And according to Mr. Akira when recalling his mother's words.
The second aunt that the mother said was lost when she was eighteen or nineteen years old, how could a lost girl live a better life? What is even more surprising is that in Herazuko's twenties, when Japan's economy was in recession, she was able to stand in front of a high-end car and take pictures!
Most of the usual photos are wearing exquisite dresses, and there are very few such confident, elegant and economically superior ladies in that era!
Not to mention the inheritance of nearly 34 million yuan left by Chizuko after her death, it is also conceivable that she should have lived a good life before she died, how could such a woman fall to the point where no one collected her body?
Picture 丨 young and confident Chizuko
Many people boldly speculate that in a country as patriarchal as Japan, an independent and successful lady like Kuzuko must have endured a lot of suffering.
Perhaps, she once had a big fight with her parents because she insisted on going to a job that only men did on weekdays, and her parents thought that girls should learn to be well-behaved and sensible.
Finally, marry a good husband, be a good wife and mother at home, and respect your husband. Instead of showing up and working with a bunch of men, which seems inappropriate to them, women should sit separately from men, not to mention working and living under the same roof! But the young Kuzuko did not want to be subordinate to the men forever, relying on them and obeying them.
So she left, she wanted to break out of her own career to prove to her parents, and her daughter's family could be as good as a man! She stood at the cusp of the era when men were superior to women, and she passed a barrier and was difficult. The things that are easy for a man to get, she has to work extra hard to get recognition.

After all, labels attached to women don't change overnight. Before taking this step, she knew that the road she had to take was very difficult, so she persevered no matter how tired she was.
Fortunately, heaven is always a person who cares for hard work, and her job search is not full of people who look at her with stereotypes.
She met leaders who were willing to give her the opportunity to try, and colleagues and friends who took the initiative to work with her, and gradually gained a foothold in Tokyo on her own hands, and grew from a yellow haired girl who did not know the height of the sky to a mature woman.

3. Love is blocked
Every girl craves a perfect love, and Chizuko is no exception. So when she first met the elegant gentleman, the humorous Mr. "Tanaka", she fell in love with him at first sight.
Tanaka also noticed this bright and unusual young lady. The young girl's pursuit of love is naturally reckless, and Kuzuko boldly shows her love to Mr. Tanaka.
And Tanaka was also deeply attracted to such a confident and beautiful girl, and the relationship between the two was in full swing. They went to the shrine together to pray to the gods, hoping to be with each other forever.
Walking through the cherry blossom road that is said to be together after walking, Tanaka takes good care of the girl who is younger than himself.
And Chizuko is also immersed in the sweetness of love, the most romantic place in Japan they have walked together, such a first love for any girl is unforgettable, unforgettable.
Chizuko thinks she has found a man to spend her life with, and she wants to marry him and give herself his surname and become "Chizuko Tanaka".
Picture 丨 Mr. Tanaka
Together, the two rented a later residence by the cherry blossom path, and Tanaka arranged everything properly, and Chizuko only needed to be Mrs. Tanaka at the end!
Although there were no weddings or formal ceremonies, Chizuko had always been an open girl, and she believed in the man's love for her, so she began to introduce herself to everyone in the outside world as the wife of the Tanaka family, Tanaka Hisatsuko.
But when the beautiful veil of love is lifted, there is only a terrible truth left underneath. When Chizuko began to sense that something was wrong with her lover, she could no longer hold on to the trust she had at first, and she quietly followed Mr. Tanaka, who was not home every three or five minutes, and finally came to an old and magnificent house.
Watching her "husband" get out of the car, in front of the door was a woman in a luxurious kimono, she whispered to Tanaka, "You are back, husband." Tanaka nodded slightly, allowing the woman to follow him, and from time to time turned back to talk to her softly. What makes Chizuko even more unacceptable is that.
Picture 丨 Mr. Tanaka's house
When Tanaka and the woman were about to enter the door, two small figures rushed out of the house, one left and one right around Tanaka, sweetly calling out to his father. And Tanaka's face burst into a bright smile, a smile she had never seen before, with the warmth of her father, facing her beloved child.
Chizuko also likes children, so she keeps many photos of her sisters' children, which is both a thought and an envy.
However, when Tian Chong said that she did not want the child to disturb the lives of the two of them, and Chizuko's work did not allow her to have children, she did not think about it anymore, it turned out that he did not dislike children, nor did he not want children.
I just don't want my own children, and what's even more ridiculous is that Tian Chong is actually a fake name!
From beginning to end, he used a fake name to trick her into giving her all sincerity and wanting to spend the rest of her life with him! Chizuko, who knows everything, is directly open and honest after Tian Chong returns home, and wants to break up with Tian Chong.
Picture 丨 Chizuko's hometown
Even if so many feelings can't be put down, but the original Chizuko can go out alone as a woman, and now Kuzuko can quickly cut through the mess and give up this originally wrong relationship!
Tian Chong didn't dwell too much on it and left the house. Chizuko had wanted to throw away everything about him.
But Chizuko thought again, it was originally fake, then naturally there is nothing to hate about these things, only when you get used to it can you put it down.
But after this time, Chizuko no longer dared to easily deliver her feelings, and after experiencing such perfect feelings, how could there be better in the future? At least until the fake Tian Chong was exposed, everything he did was perfect.
And a person mourns more than the death of the heart, the original bright, love of life Chizuko suffered this blow, no longer have the heart to do that, she only put her energy on work, made a lot of money, although she herself can not spend it, but only endless work can make her forget those past.

And she has not been in touch with her family for many years, afraid that her hasty interference will make her father and mother more angry, so she does not even dare to meet the family, and can only rely on the photos she has secretly left to miss them.
A series of photos and supplies from Chizuko's house are stuck in the 90s, as if the place has not changed since the 90s.
Kuzuko, who once loved to record her life with photos, never left a photo after the 90s, and the items in the house were rarely added to the new ones, time seemed to stop at that stage, only Chizuko herself was aging with the passage of time, but these items were kept by her, which has always been her favorite appearance.
Maybe these immutable items, each one, each one, all pinned on Chizuko's different feelings, in the days of those people later, only these objects with the breath of the predecessors accompanied her, as if those people were around her in the first place.
4. Memory

Never get old
Kuzuko's story and experience have made many netizens sigh, and the most impressive thing is what a Chinese netizen said, he said, the old lady lives in Japan, and the neighbors can still find her abnormality through the abnormal mailbox, and find her death. But I live in China, and if my parents are gone, I have no friends or lovers.
One day I died at home, not knowing how long it would take to be found. Seeing these comments can't help but make people feel sad, even if a person has a monstrous wealth.
If there are no more parents in this world who care about him, friends accompany him, lovers take care of him, and children care for him, then living in this world is like walking in vain.

Man is not simply a biological individual, but also exists as an integral part of society, and the real evidence that a person lives is his social relations, which each of us cannot shake off, and we should be grateful for the existence of these people.
The real death of a person is when no one in this world remembers him again, and thanks to the existence of these people around us, even if one day we leave this world, we have all kinds of impressions living in their memories!
