Forget it, it's useless to talk to this princess of one hundred thousand integrity. She only does things that she thinks are normal, but in fact, her integrity is crazy.

I sighed feebly and continued to observe this small and medium-sized village.

It's hard to tell how big this village not far from the foot of the shrine mountain is. The place farther away is shrouded in a faint mist, and no matter how sharp the eyes are, it can't penetrate it. I find that it is difficult to have a good view in Gensokyo.

It allows my titanium alloy wolf eyes to exert their power.

This is probably the characteristic of Gensokyo, I thought to myself, maybe because Gensokyo is too small, the red and white princess is afraid of the powerful monsters. She can see the entire Gensokyo in the blink of an eye, and then circle around three times in the blink of an eye.

, so use this trick to make it look big.

"What's the name of this village?" I finally remembered that I still didn't know the name of the village.

"East Village."

"It's really simple. Does that mean the shrine is located to the east of Gensokyo?"

"Who knows?"

"Let me know! Aren't you the guardian of Gensokyo? What if you can't tell the difference between east, west and north?" I looked at the Red and White Princess with contempt. This guy really didn't do his job properly.

"I'm sorry, I don't want to be lectured like this by a guy who really can't tell the difference between east, west and north."

"Who? Who are you talking about?" I looked around, with a tactful(?) expression of confusion.

"Isn't this His Highness Reimu? I haven't gone down the mountain for a long time. What are you busy with?" At this time, in the yard of a roadside house surrounded by fences, an old woman, probably sitting in front of her house to bask in the sun, was facing us.

Smiling and waving in greeting.

"It's not like those guys keep people busy." The red and white princess sighed, pushed open the fence door and entered the yard.

"It's really hard work. Your Highness Reimu is really good at this kind of thing. Thanks to His Highness Reimu for protecting everyone, we can live in peace of mind. If it's a pity, I really hope I can help you."

"Where, where, this is my job. Isn't Grandma Mickey also contributing her own strength? Everyone just performs their duties."

Look what I heard? From the mouth of the Red and White Princess, she actually said three words: "Everyone should perform their duties."

I was shocked and in disbelief.

"This is..." Granny Mickey's eyes fell on me.

"Just a guy who eats and drinks for free at the shrine."

As soon as I finished speaking, a blow fell on the forehead of the red and white princess. I gritted my teeth and looked at her, and the veins on my forehead kept trembling.

"If you think about it more carefully, am I really eating and drinking for free?"

Recall carefully whose father was making a cheerful sound yesterday.

"Wouldn't you let me say that?" The red and white princess covered her forehead and looked at me dissatisfied.

"I didn't ask you to say the exact opposite, idiot!" He angrily slammed the coffee table. Is this guy a straight-headed person who would rather go east than west? Or is he just pretending to be stupid?

"Okay, there's really nothing I can do." After shaking her sleeves, the red and white princess coughed a few times to moisten her throat. Her expression became a little more serious, and she faced Granny Mickey and pointed at me.

"Allow me to reintroduce you. This is the man who plans to support me."

My old blood spurted out.

"You...you, you, you!!!" I pulled the Red and White Princess's shoulders and kept shaking her. I was about to cry. According to this rhythm, it won't take long for me to be crowned the Public Enemy of Gensokyo.

of the throne.

"Isn't it?" The Red and White Princess showed an innocent look: "Isn't this the purpose of offering so much money?"

"What part of your brain did you use to guess this fallacy?"

"I had a flash of inspiration while drinking tea."

"Isn't this a flash of inspiration that makes your brain watery?"

"Okay, this is the last time. I really can't be willful anymore." The red and white princess sighed, as if she couldn't do anything to me, a naughty kid. Obviously the victim is me. Obviously the victim is me!

"Let me introduce you for the last time. This is... the financial owner who developed a deep relationship with me while working on repairing the shrine..."

"Finder, remove it for me!" I grinded my teeth several times. Although I was still a little unwilling, I reluctantly accepted this introduction.

"Hohohoho, it's great to be young. It's rare to find anyone who can keep up with His Highness Reimu's words." Grandma Miqi looked on and laughed.

No, no, no, I can't keep up, let alone want to keep up. That means my moral integrity is losing as fast as these hundred thousand moral princesses. I just cover the faucet of moral integrity for her and myself.

.

"Grandma Mickey is the village chief of Dongzhi Village. Although the village is not big, there are always a lot of troubles because there are all kinds of people living there. Thanks to Grandma Mickey for intervening."

The Red and White Princess then introduced me and said, "It would be great if you could introduce me as you introduced the other person."

"Hello, Grandma Miqi, my name is Wu Fan. Nice to meet you."

"Hello, young man. Judging from your appearance, you should not be from the East Village."

"Yes."

"But, it's not like the people in the other three villages. Could it be that... they are monsters?"

"Well..." I looked slightly stunned, considering whether to hide the fact that I was an outsider. I saw the red and white princess secretly winking at me from the side, and I was convinced.

"Yes, I am a monster." I lied without blushing and out of breath. Thanks to the red and white princess, I didn't feel ashamed at all.

"It's so rare to see monsters that look the same as humans." Granny Mickey nodded and did not continue to ask me what kind of monster I was. It was probably the type of monster in this fantasy land. There were so many that even she could remember them.

Can't live.

"Grandma Mickey, it's my first time to come to Dongzhi Village. I'm very curious about how big it is and how many people there are. The whole village is shrouded in fog, and it's really hard to see clearly at a glance."

"Well, it depends on how to deal with it, because goblins living in the forest and monsters from other places often visit the village. If you don't count these, there are about five people who have lived in Higashi Village for a long time.

About a thousand."

"Five thousand... is considered a lot. Are they all mainly human beings?"

I tried my best to behave like a curious baby. If I came alone and asked these questions, I might be regarded as a suspicious person inquiring about the village's information and be kicked out. But with the Red and White Princess by my side, it was different. This guy

It's still useful occasionally.

"Yes, of course there are many elves, dwarves, and other kinds of monsters. Young man... No, since you are a monster, I can't call you that. Maybe you are older than me.

I'm so sorry."

"No, please just call me that. Although I am a monster, I am not very old."

"Pretend to be young." The red and white princess lost no time in complaining.

"Shut up." I used the knife again. Has this honest princess forgotten who asked me to pretend to be a monster? Be careful if I stop the show and reveal the truth.

"We have such a good relationship. Did you two really just get to know each other?"

"If possible, I don't want to have anything to do with this guy."

"If possible, I hope it has nothing to do with this guy's wallet."

The Red and White Princess and I said in unison. Then we glared at each other.

"Hohoho, okay, okay, Your Highness Reimu, and this youkai-sama, please calm down, we can get to know each other, and we can be together. We must cherish this fate."

This should be called evil fate. I shivered. But the voice of Granny Mickey revealed a peaceful and wonderful power that can make people calm down. It is probably because of this that we can solve the problem in this village.

The disputes between residents of various ethnic groups may be troublesome.

Suddenly, there was an explosion about a few miles away, followed by a slightly chaotic sound.

"Oops, it seems we are in trouble again." Grandma Mickey stood up, nodded slightly and smiled at us.

"Then, please allow me to excuse you, Your Highness Reimu, and this youkai-sama."

"Aren't you going to help?" Looking at Granny Miqi's leaving figure, I licked my lips in the direction of the explosion.

"It's not necessary. It's better to let the village solve ordinary minor troubles internally. If even minor troubles can't be solved, then it's a real trouble."

"Although it is a small trouble, Granny Mickey is an ordinary human being, and she is not very strong. Aren't you afraid of accidents?"

"Don't worry, there are still a lot of monsters who live in this village and yearn for peace. These people are similar to the village guards. If someone does not know what is good, they will be met with violence."

The red and white princess chuckled, as if many such things had happened, recalling the pitiful end of those guys.

"Is there a powerful monster living in this village?"

"Well, and there are more than one, it would be a bit troublesome even for me to deal with them."

I nodded my head clearly and said, because the racial composition is complex, it is impossible to make too many detailed rules. And according to the Red and White Princess, many monsters are guys who seriously lack common sense. If there are not a few

A strong guardian with absolute strength will definitely cause big trouble.

"Okay, let's continue buying food. We have to fill the basket." The red and white princess turned and left without even looking at the commotion.

Glancing at the empty baskets, I felt that the next step was going to be a long shopping trip.

Sure enough, it was not until the afternoon that this seemingly small basket was filled with various vegetables, meat and rice. The red and white princess effortlessly shook the basket and felt the heavy content inside.

He smiled with satisfaction.
