"Shen Yin" once believed that everyone was familiar with it. As the name implies, it means "hidden by gods and monsters", and entertained by them, but disappeared from human society and whereabouts is unknown.
Since ancient times, whenever a child disappeared for no apparent reason, the villagers in the settlement would beat the drums, and search by name. If you can't find it everywhere, it is determined that the phenomenon of "sacred hiding" has occurred, and the missing child should be taken away by gods, tengu and other goblins.
Speaking of Shenyin, I have to mention "Spirited Away". Friends who are familiar with Spirited Away know that the original Japanese name of this movie is "Spirited Away".
"Spirited Away"
Its true background story is the "Matsuoka Shinya Shrine Incident", one of the three major shrines in Japan .
The story takes place in Ibaraki Prefecture in 1989. Masanobu Matsuoka, who is nearly 40 years old, has a gentle and virtuous wife, and three healthy and well-behaved children. The family is harmonious. But an unprepared phone call completely changed the lives of this family of four.

On the evening of March 5, his wife Keiko Matsuoka received the bad news about her mother’s passing, and the family set off on the next day. Go to Tokushima Prefecture in Shikoku and attend the funeral. On the night of the funeral, they lived in a relative's house halfway up the mountain in the suburbs. It is worth mentioning that this relative's family lives near the end of the forest highway, and there are no other houses besides forest and farmland.
On the morning of March 7, Zhengshen got up early and took the three children out for a walk while his wife was cooking breakfast. Soon, the children became hungry, so he began to walk back. As soon as he walked to the door of the house, the second child Nobuya Matsuoka suddenly became disobedient and wanted to go out to play again. Zhengshen couldn't help but soothed and said, "Then you wait here, father will take his younger brother back to mother, don't run around".

Dad Zhengshen realized that something was wrong and immediately called the police. Later, with the mobilization of the police, a total of 100 people participated in the search that day, but nothing was found.

The next day, the police sent another 200 people. People almost turned the entire Tokushima prefecture upside down, but it was like God’s hidden one. The meaning is the same, Shinya seems to be hidden by the gods, and there is no trace of him at all. At first, everyone thought that Shinya was just lost in the mountains because of fun. However, the search lasted for 3 months without any results.

If you are attacked by a beast, there must be hair, footprints, and even blood on the scene; if a fall accident occurs, a few accident points can be locked based on the experience of firefighters ; If unfortunately taken away by the kidnappers, the farmers who have been working in the fields from the early morning that day will always see suspicious vehicles or people. However, the answer to all the questions was "No." Even the search and rescue dog was lost in the dense forest. The arrow dissipated like smoke, leaving no trace.
There are many suspicious points in this incident. According to family members, Shinya-kun had been afraid of something the day before he disappeared. Before going to bed, he shouted "He is looking for me, I will be found", and he was nearby at the time. People working in the fields also proved that they did not see anyone or cars passing by.

Just when the Matsuoka family fell into despair, a mysterious call came in, which made the whole case a little more unknownThe aura made the truth of the matter even more confusing. The other party claimed to be the parent representative of Shinya Kindergarten, and Mariko Nakahara's mother. Wanting to send the condolence money raised by the kindergarten, the Matsuoka family thanked them casually and hung up the phone.
On March 17th, the Matsuoka family returned to Ibaraki Prefecture. For this exhausted family, the warmth and happiness that were once a dream have disappeared. After clearing up her mood for a while, Keiko took the initiative to get in touch with Chengqi Kindergarten. Although she was not very happy to ask for money from the kindergarten, she still mentioned the condolences by the way.
However, the response from the other party made her horrified. The kindergarten teacher said that there was no child named Mariko Nakahara in the Moon class, and they had never heard of any donations or condolences. Keiko, who was panicked, quickly told her husband this fact, and Zhengshin realized that the phone call was probably made deliberately by the prisoner who kidnapped her son to confirm the whereabouts of the Matsuoka family.
But strangely, since the Matsuoka family left the Tokushima police, their investigation attitude was completely different. Not only did they no longer organize search and rescue, they even said that the recording of the call had been lost, and because there was no telephone in Japan at the time. To detect technology, so this mysterious call became an interrupted clue.

Since then, the Matsuoka family has been further and further away from the track of happiness. Zhengshen quit his job and does odd jobs everywhere. As long as there is a suspected sighting of Shinya, his father Zhengshen always rushes to investigate as soon as possible. However, nothing was found.
The turning point of things happened in 2018, and the first file is called "Urgent! The program "Opening the Search" found a man with amnesia who was about the same age as Shinya, and once again caused discussion about the Shenyin incident. After the incident was reported, many people remembered the case of Shinya Matsuoka, and asked to compare DNA to find out if it was the child of Shinyin 29 years ago. The appearance of the two of them is very similar, which aroused the appeal of netizens. But unfortunately, in the end this person was also confirmed to be not Nobuya Matsuoka.
The Matsuoka Masanobu incident is still an unsolved case so far, ranking first among the three major divine hidden incidents in Japan.
