After all the afternoon classes were over, Asagiri Suzu and another girl whose turn was on duty stayed to clean the classroom.

After taking out the trash, she met Soya on the way back.

"Thank you for your hard work. Is it over?"

She nodded.

"Tirino and Yoshikawa are still there to visit the club and recruit new members. Let's go back with them later." Soya said, "After walking around for two times, today seems to be the home of the sports club, so I have no interest."

"Um."

"Now, I'm going to Fuyun Shrine. I don't know when I'll be back. You don't have to wait for me for dinner."

Asagiri Suzu thought for a moment, "Part-time job?"

"It's okay, I already said hello to Mr. Kirino yesterday."

The two parted in the corner of the atrium.

Asagiri Suzu carried the trash can back upstairs and stopped in the corridor again, watching Souya squeeze out a path in the busy atrium and walk straight out.

...

Climbing a hundred steps, Soya once again arrived at the Fuun Shrine run by the Sugawara family.

In the afternoon, the shrine was not as deserted as yesterday. There were many worshipers scattered in the courtyard and in front of the main hall. On his way up the stairs, he met at least seven or eight people.

But among these people, there is no Kyoko Sugawara.

Zonggu thought for a while, then washed his hands, paid homage, and threw some sesame oil money in the money box, and then went to inquire.

"Excuse me……"

"What's the matter, guest?" The new miko smiled at him.

"Senior Kyoko Sugawara is back? I have something to ask her about."

"Miss Jingzi... I didn't pay attention. Maybe she is in the social affairs office."

The miko looked towards the social office next to her, and her eyes suddenly lit up, "Ah, Yuzi."

"That child is Miss Kyoko's sister. Guests, please go ask her."

"I understand, thank you."

As soon as Sugawara Tamako, who was dressed as a miko, walked out of the social affairs office, she saw a tall boy wearing her sister's school uniform walking towards her, and she subconsciously froze.

"..."

Are you scared?

Just as Zongya was about to speak, Yuzi also recognized him, "Ah, it's the Dictionary Ben brother from before."

He smiled.

"Hello, I'm Soya. Is Sugawara-senpai back?"

"Have you been admitted to your sister's school?" She was still thinking about his high school entrance examination.

"...Well, almost."

"That's amazing. My sister is in there, do you want to ask her to come out?"

"Is there something wrong with her?"

Yuzi raised her head with difficulty, "There is something wrong."

"Then I'll wait a little longer."

"Please..."

Not interested in visiting the shrine, Soya wandered around the shrine and soon found an asphalt road among the woods. It seemed that there was more than one way to go up the mountain, but the entrance was not at the front.

Near the intersection, there was also parked a white business car that he had taken once before.

"beep--"

After a quick glance, he was startled by the sudden sound of a horn. Then, the window of the business car rolled down.

"Boy, did you come to the shrine after chasing a woman...wait, I think I have seen you before."

The miko in the driver's seat frowned. She was between twenty-five and thirty years old. Soya also had some impressions of her. She should be one of the people who went to pick up Sugawara Kyoko last time.

"Are you here to see Kyoko?"

"Yes."

"Go back."

"..."

She probably misunderstood something.

"Sugawara-senpai asked me to come here." Soya explained.

"Senior sister? She's a first-year student. No wonder she doesn't know the heights of the world."

The miko continued talking to herself, "Confess quickly, then get hurt quickly, and then tell your classmates: Sugawara Kyoko is not interested in love, don't bother her again."

"..."

Zonggu was speechless.

This misunderstanding is too deep.

But this is not surprising. Kyoko Sugawara has an outstanding appearance and a stern smile. She always exudes a cold aura that avoids strangers. On the contrary, she has a fatal attraction for self-righteous adolescent boys, especially freshmen who have just entered high school...

"Hello."

Soya was distracted when the miko in the car called him again, "Kyoko is here."

He turned around and saw Sugawara Kyoko and several miko maidens walking towards him. A look of surprise flashed across their faces after noticing him.

"Sotani-kun?"

The other mikos got into the car and watched her stand in front of Soya, "Why did you come here so early?"

"Nothing, time is free."

Soya glanced at the unfamiliar faces in the car and asked, "Sugawara-senpai, are you going out now?"

"Ah...yes. Sorry, something suddenly happened and I can't receive Soya-san in person."

Kyoko Sugawara bowed slightly and said, "If you don't mind, Soya-kun, please go sit in the Social Affairs Office for a while."

"Senior, are you going to remove spirits?" Zongya thought of some possibility.

"No...but it's almost the same."

She explained, "Someone reported a supernatural incident near Kawamori Bridge. I have to go to the scene to see it before I can judge."

"Do we need so many people?" A commercial car is almost full.

"These are the shrine maidens from Shiromaru Shrine. I just sent them back on the way."

"I see."

"Kyoko."

The miko who acted as the driver looked at the two of them with her arm resting on the window, "Is the confession over? It's getting late."

"..."

Kyoko Sugawara glanced back and bowed slightly to Soya, "It's time for me to leave. Soya-kun, please wait a moment. I will be back within half an hour."

"Is there still room?"

"……What?"

"I said..." Zong Gu pointed to the business car behind her, "Is there still room in the car?"

"I'll go with you."

...

In a car of shrine maidens, only Kyoko Sugawara and Minami Noma, who was driving, belonged to Fuun Shrine, and the rest of them all got off the car at a certain intersection.

Shiromaru Shrine is not large in scale, and the location is quite good, but Kyoko’s destination is not here.

The commercial vehicle continued to drive forward and passed four or five traffic lights. The field of vision suddenly broadened and was surrounded by large fields.

"To the countryside..."

"What are you talking about?"

Noma Minami took hold of the steering wheel and glanced at Soya with a smile, "We are always in the countryside, aren't we?"

"That's right."

"Are you anxious? Kawamori Bridge is right in front."

In order to prevent him from "harassing" the other miko, especially Kyoko, Soya was placed in the passenger seat as soon as he got in the car, enjoying the same view as the driver.

"The person to contact should be in the village over there." He looked ahead.
