Kamiyagawa moved the whale's shrine from Takamagahara and placed the little whale's shikigami in it.
Everything is ready, and the Sorrow and Ocean Shrine begins to operate.
The ocean atmosphere with a sad emotion is like the tide washing back and forth in the main hall in the center of the shrine, which is mostly made of jade.
You can feel that the power of faith is slowly being absorbed.
"Very good, let's start working now."
Kamiyakawa nodded with satisfaction.
The new shrine was able to start work so quickly, thanks to the Kropokulu missionaries headed by Grandma Locust. These villains had previously promoted the name of the whale in the other world. Moreover, once the authority of the shrine of the little whale was determined,
They also responded quickly and made updates to the teachings.
Therefore, the name of the god who transformed into a whale has been officially spread in the permanent area currently controlled.
And I don’t know if it’s because of Little Whale’s identity as the head of the Kingdom of the Sea and the protection of the three goddesses Munakata. His speed of absorbing faith from the eternal world is not inferior to that of the veteran Aragami Mari and Dream-Eating Tapir.
"Perhaps the faith of the sea people is fed back to the little whale and there may be a bonus."
The situation in the ordinary world is good, so we will naturally have to consider the spread of Whale's faith in the present world.
However, GENIE Animation Studio writer Mr. Miyake has completed the creation of all six unit stories for the first season of "Uncertain Lady Mary" and is currently revising the last two unit scripts.
The stories in the first quarter have nothing to do with monsters like the whale.
As an enlightened boss, Kamiyagawa will naturally not give random orders and let his employees rush to revise the manuscript and forcefully insert a character into it.
Doing so may degrade the quality of the entire animation.
The image of a transformed whale created in a hurry may not be as eye-catching as the exquisitely crafted Miss Mary and the Dream-Eating Tapir.
"Judging from the current operation of the Ocean Shrine, the belief in the whale is enough. In reality, it is better not to encourage the seedlings. The first season of "Miss Mary" created by GENIE Animation Studio is really doing well.
Due to the response, it won’t be too late to add the character of Hu Whale in the second season.”
"Alternatively, if we can build the GENIE animation studio, we can start other animation or animated movies with the whale as the protagonist in the future."
I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and the GENIE animation studio hasn't figured out how to do it yet, so it's better to operate it more safely.
…
Osaka, near Kyoto.
On the road leading to the countryside and passing through the fields, a commercial vehicle was driving rapidly.
Onizuka Kirihotari, the divine child of Juqiong Shrine, is sitting in the back row. She is dressed in casual clothes that are easy to move around. Her hair is tied into a high ponytail, but it is tied with sandalwood paper, which adds a little sense of mystery to her.
The little miko brought the bows and various talismans she commonly used with her, and props such as Kagura bells and painted fans were packed in her suitcase and leaned against the edge of her seat.
With this heavily armed appearance, it was obvious that he was on a business trip.
Last night, several rural villages here jointly held a celebration.
At the celebration, unexpected and strange things happened, and several children disappeared as a result.
The locals quickly called the police, and the matter was reported to the Countermeasures Room branch here. However, except for the elite spiritual masters, all the branches here have been dispatched, so the matter was finally reported to the Tokyo headquarters.
After some planning, the little miko received the notice and flew to Kyoto overnight as an expatriate.
Buzz——
Onizuka was resting against the window with his eyes closed, half asleep, when he felt the phone vibrating on his lap.
I picked it up and looked at it. It was a message from Kamiya: [Pay attention to safety.]
[Don’t worry, don’t underestimate me, I am also practicing well.]
Onizuka quickly replied to the message.
I opened the navigation again and looked at it. It seemed that my destination was almost here.
The place we want to go to this time is the police station in the countryside here.
The exorcists from the Kyoto Countermeasures Room branch are already waiting there.
The little witch dragged her suitcase out of the car and was received at the door of the police station.
The person who greeted her was a middle-aged woman who looked ordinary and had a very nervous expression on her face: "Miss Shenzi, you are Miss Shenzi from Tokyo, right? I am Sugita who is temporarily in charge here."
"Just call me Onitsuka." The little miko is only a college student, but she is already experienced in exterminating ghosts abroad. She goes straight to the point, "Although I received the notice, the incident happened suddenly, and I have no idea what happened here.
I’m not very clear, could you please explain it to me, Ms. Sugita?”
"Of course. Oh, but Miss Onizuka... the children who were reported missing during the celebration were found more than an hour ago. They are here now. There are some things that I may have heard from the two children themselves.
Better."
"Then take me there."
During this celebration, the two children who disappeared and were found this morning are a pair of sisters.
Because the two sisters were both victims of the incident and were still young, they were naturally not placed in the inquiry room, but stayed in the office.
The little witch entered the office and saw a pair of little girls five or six years apart sitting on the sofa.
After introduction, I learned that one of the sisters was a junior high school student named Shinagawa Misako.
The younger sister is still a primary school student, her name is Shinagawa Rieko.
The two sisters were accompanied by an adult woman who looked like their mother. The younger sister looked frightened, but there was more excitement left on her face.
"Misa-chan, Rie-chan, can you tell this sister what happened last night?"
Ms. Sugita leaned down.
"We've already talked about it once."
Although she was in the police station and faced with unfamiliar adults, Misako Shinagawa didn't look timid at all.
"Can you tell me again? This sister Onizuka came from Tokyo. She can solve the bad things you encounter."
"But I don't think anything bad happened to us." Misako Shinagawa shook her head.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Sister..."
The younger sister of the Shinagawa family timidly pulled her sister's sleeve and spoke weakly.
"But..." Shinagawa Misako looked at Onizuka up and down, and became very excited again, "Onizuka-sama, you are so beautiful! Well...it's not impossible to say it again specifically for you, sister."
"Then thank you, Sister Shinagawa."
The little miko was speechless when a junior high school girl praised her beauty with all her eyes.
How should I put it, I feel like this Shinagawa Misako is a bit like a radio-type girl who goes her own way.
Onizuka moved a chair, took out his notebook and sat down in front of the Shinagawa sisters.
The two police officers in the office took Shinagawa's mother out of the door temporarily.
Then, the telling of the story begins——
…
In the countryside of Kyoto, there is a large mountain called "Xiangshan".
There are several villages scattered around Xiangshan Mountain.
Every autumn, these villages unite to hold a celebration called the "Echo Festival".
Shinagawa's mother's hometown is near Hibikiyama, but after getting married, she and her husband moved to the city of Osaka. This time, she took advantage of the break to take her two daughters home to visit relatives.
Yesterday morning, my eldest daughter heard about the unique Echo Festival around Xiangshan Mountain. She was very interested and begged her mother to take her to see it.
Originally, there were no special arrangements for yesterday, so Shinagawa's mother complied with her daughter's wish.
That night we drove to the venue where the celebration was held.
Including the village where the festival is held, the surrounding areas are located in relatively high mountainous areas. The festival venue is a little further up the mountain and is a square next to the reservoir lake.
When the Shinagawa mother and daughter arrived, the festival had already begun.
There is a stage in the center of the square, surrounded by red and white lanterns and vendors.
"I originally thought it was just a small festival in the countryside, but it was much more lively than I imagined!"
My sister Misako enjoyed the atmosphere of the celebration.
To be continued...
