Hachi: The story of a dog: Hachi is a mysterious dog, because no one knows where it comes from. Professor Parker picked up a lost puppy at the train station in the town. It seems that the puppy and Professor Parker have a certain fate. As soon as Parker picked up the puppy, he couldn't let it go. Finally, Parker's love for the dog Hachi influenced his wife Carter, who was strongly opposed to raising a dog at first.

Hachi grew up slowly under the care of Parker. When Parker goes to work, Hachi always sends him to the station. When he gets off work, Hachi will climb at the station early and wait. Hachi's loyalty makes people in the town love him more. One day, Hachi behaved abnormally when Parker was going to work, and actually played a game of picking up the ball that he had never played before. The performance of Hachi made Parker very satisfied, but on that day, Parker died of illness.

Parker's wife, daughter Andy and son-in-law Michael buried Parker with great sadness, but Hachi, who knew nothing, still waited in front of the station at five o'clock every evening, waiting for his master to return.
