A face appears in the sky of Japan

The human face made of the hydrogen balloon was about 15 meters long and 7 meters wide. It floated 15 stories above the ground. Due to the angle of the hydrogen balloon and the psychological influence of people, it looked like it was staring at passers-by 24 hours a day. Many tourists said that no matter where they went, they would be "stared" by this face in midair and be scared. However, this actually originated from an artist's dream. He looked up at the sky in his dream and saw a giant face. After collecting 218 uncle faces from the local passersby, he chose the most classic one to draw on the hydrogen balloon and let it float in the air for 24 hours. The novel " Mars of Paradise " is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to read it!
