The temperature of Kumagaya-city was 34 degrees. It was a very hot day. Looking for vending machines I kept buying water.Sometime is Hoei years (1673 to 1680) Gonpachi Hirai slashed a passerby in the town with a sword. When I turned around, there was a Jizo. Gonpachi Hirai told Jizo that this thing was silent. Jizo said, "I do not say, but do not say you." Gonpachi Hirai is a real person and executed at the prison in Tokaido Suzugamori.
