"Kojii Hanasaki" (Scene where he meets Shiro and finds money)
One rainy day, a small white dog came in front of the old man's house.
In this house lived a kind grandfather and grandmother.
Grandpa: "Oh, a white dog...!"
Grandmother: "Well, it's cold outside, so please stay home."
The old man and the old woman gave the white dog a warm bed and good food.
Grandpa: "What is this dog's name? Yes, let's call it Shiro."
Grandmother: "Shiro, why don't you live here with us?"
And Shiro started living in his grandfather's house.
Shiro was getting bigger and bigger.
Shiro is very smart and understands human speech.
One day, Grandpa and Shiro went to work in the mountains.
When the old man was working, Shiro looked under the tree and said,
Shiro: "One! One! One!"
Grandpa: "What's wrong? Shiro. Is there anything there?"
When the old man looked under the tree, he saw a lot of money.

"Dog and Cockerel"
The dog and the cockerel lived in the same man's house.
The weather is very nice today, so everyone at home is out.
Dog: "Oh, I'm bored. I don't like it because the house is small."
Rooster: "Yes. I also want to run in a wider space. Hey, do you want to leave this house with me?"
Dog: "I like it."
The dog let the rooster out of the little birdhouse.
The rooster took the dog's collar.
Two left home.
After a long walk, we reached the forest.
Dog: "Oh, fun! I've never run outside so much."
Rooster: "Me too. I didn't know the world was so big."
The two of them played and ate.
And it was night.
The rooster slept on the tree and the dog slept under the tree.
It's morning.
Rooster: "Cock-Dock! Cock-Dock! It's Morning!"
Then the bad fox heard the rooster.
Fox: (Hahaha. Let's eat that rooster for breakfast today.)
The fox came under the rooster tree.
Fox : "Hey, rooster. Good morning. Nice voice."
Rooster: "Hi, Mr. Fox. Thank you."
Fox: "I want to be friends with you. Come here."
Rooster: "Okay, but first, can you say hello to the person under the tree?"
Fox: "Oh, I see."
The fox looked under the tree.
Dog: "Wow-wow-wow-wow!"
Kitsune: "Gya! Dog!"
So the fox ran off somewhere.
