Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 22 Admission

At around nine o'clock in the morning, in the auditorium of Danhai University, the entrance ceremony for freshmen was just in the middle of the process.

At this time, it is the speaking session of freshman representatives:

"...In this season of fluttering cherry blossoms, we entered Danhai High School with anticipation..."

Koko Yoshikawa stood on the stage with a calm voice, but the hands holding the speech were slightly trembling.

While reading, she quickly glanced down the stage.

Most of the freshmen in the ten classes of the first grade were looking at her on the stage;

And in the lineup of the first-year class B facing the high platform, Akane Kirino poked her head in the direction of the next class A, as if looking for someone, her movements were conspicuous, and she could be seen at a glance on the stage.

Koko Yoshikawa felt a little uncomfortable, but Akane Kirino suddenly turned her head and looked at her straight.

"..."

She was stiff again.

"...in, growing here, until..."

Soya, who was distracted in the lineup of Class A for the first year, turned his attention to the stage at this moment.

"Are you still nervous?"

He looked at Yoshikawa, who became the freshman representative because of his No. 1 entrance score, and imagined what would happen if he replaced the person on the stage with himself.

This is not a fantasy without reason. Before she agreed to speak as a freshman representative, he first rejected the school's invitation during spring break;
And his past here was blank, and he didn't even take the entrance exam. It was obvious that the school valued his referees.

"Izanami..."

In the world of ordinary people, she seems to have some other extraordinary identity.

"Who?"

The folding chair creaked, and Keisuke Fushimi, who was sitting next to him, suddenly turned to look at him, "What's so 'beautiful', it seems to be a girl's name?"

"..."

"Could it be someone Soya likes?"

Soya opened his mouth and closed it again.

"so good."

Seeing that he neither admitted nor denied, Fushimi shook his head and turned back.

The speeches on the stage were still going on, and the first-year freshmen in the audience were sitting on folding chairs, divided into areas according to the class, and there was a two-person-wide aisle between each other;
I don't know when it started, there were a few young figures who didn't look like teachers, pacing through the aisle, as if looking for someone, but no teacher came to help or intervene.

When one of the women walked to the queue of Class A, she suddenly stopped in her tracks:

"you……"

Fushimi sat in the middle of the row, but he responded faster than anyone else.

"what's up?"

"..."

She frowned and looked beside him, "No, it's not you."

"Soya—"

Soya, who was sitting next to him, suffered an accident, pulled Fushimi's hand off, and asked, "Looking for me?"

"No, it's the girl next to you."

"..."

He turned to Wuling and glanced at her, then quickly turned around again.

"Wait a minute, you know I'm..."

The young woman blurted out, and then paused for a while, considering the curious eyes from around her.

"Can you feel me?"

She spoke vaguely, looked towards Kirin and didn't respond, but Soya suddenly understood: she probably belonged to the shrine.

In recent years, there have been fewer and fewer people with strong spiritual senses. In order to absorb fresh blood, institutions of spiritual senses such as shrines and temples have naturally extended their hands to schools where young people gather.

Indeed, there is no more suitable time than the day of the freshman entrance ceremony.

Soya soon noticed that another woman in casual clothes stopped in front of the first-year Class B line, aiming directly at Akane Kirino among them.

"Can I take a moment to chat?" On the side of Class A, the young and beautiful shrine staff hadn't given up yet, "Just a few minutes."

The wordless Asagiri, and Akane Kirino from Class B all looked at Soya.

"..."

He shook his head, and the shrine staff on both sides returned without success and went elsewhere.

However, after watching them, I didn’t contact others again. It seems that among the freshmen this year, there are only two psychics, Zhao Wuling and Kirino Akane;
Although the other party was rejected, he did not give up, and guarded the door after exiting the auditorium.

"Not interested?"

After refusing for Asagiri, Soya thought of asking her what she thought.

She looked at him for a moment, then turned her head away.

"It doesn't matter."

The first two people who came here seemed to be from the same shrine, chatted without saying a word outside the auditorium, and kept looking at Class A and Class B;
During the period, people from other shrines came to the auditorium one after another, and some even wore priestess costumes directly, expressing their intentions frankly.

In it, Soya saw the shrine maiden whom he met a few times a month ago, Kyoko Sugawara.

She was the only member of the shrine who was wearing a student uniform. Except for the school badge on the chest and the red pattern on the cuffs, her uniform was the same as his.

"So she's a second-year student here?"

Kinki guards the capital of Kyoto. After so many years, the spiritual sense inside has almost been excavated.Akane Kirino, who had been wearing amulets since she was a child, would have slipped through the net, so she was held on tightly;

The freshman representatives on the stage had already returned to Class A, and the entrance ceremony was almost coming to an end, and there was still an endless stream of people from the shrine who came to Akane Kirino and Suzu Asagiri.

"...Then, the entrance ceremony is over."

After some concluding speeches, Mr. Principal turned a blind eye to the movement in the audience and calmly announced the end of the session.

"Songya!"

The first-year students got up and left one after another, Kirino Akane called Soya to stop.

He passed through the crowd and squeezed through with difficulty, and she pointed to the more and more people waiting at the door of the auditorium.

"What's the matter with those people?"

"As you can see, they have taken a fancy to your spiritual perception. If you are not interested, just refuse."

"Just like the witch lady I met last night?"

"That's right. And Miss Sugawara came here today, didn't you see her?"

"Eh, I didn't notice..."

"She should still be here."

Soya looked left and right, but found that not only Kyoko Sugawara, but also Asagiri Rin had disappeared.

In a corner outside the auditorium, two figures, one tall and one lower, stood facing each other.

"Do not be afraid……"

Chasing away the disturber who came to disturb her, Kyoko Sugawara tried her best to restore her calm expression, trying to appease the poor girl who was speechless in front of her, but it was useless.

But some things have to be confirmed.

"Can you feel me?"

She asked vaguely, but she was convinced that if it was a similar person, she would understand her meaning immediately.

"..."

The petite and immature girl just looked up at her without saying a word.

really……

Kyoko Sugawara's expression turned cold. The girl in front of her was probably not a spiritual sense person, but possessed by a spirit body.

Although the appearance of the two in the eyes of the spiritual sense is roughly the same, she has been involved in eliminating spirits since she was ten years old, and has encountered similar situations several times.

"It's okay, don't be afraid."

She stretched out a finger and pressed it against the girl's forehead, "I will eliminate that thing that scares you."

"Also, if you can, please tell me later when this situation started to appear. Before that, where have you been..."

Staring with both eyes, Sugawara Kyoko's mental power gradually concentrated to her fingertips, and suddenly she let out a roar.

"Devil and evil, retreat!"

It was calm and nothing happened.

"..."

Chao Wuling's eyeballs moved, first looked at the fingers on his forehead, and then at her.

Without a doubt, she failed.

But Kyoko Sugawara was not discouraged.

There are tens of thousands of spirits in the world, and even if she started removing spirits at the age of ten, most of them were types she had never heard of, and she didn't expect to succeed in one go.

The mental power is concentrated on the fingertips again:

"Devil and evil, retreat!"

"Devil and evil, retreat!"

"Despicable and evil..."

After repeated trials and failures, Sugawara Kyoko still wanted to continue to try, but Chao Wuling didn't intend to play with her anymore, and turned around to leave.

"and many more……"

She reached out her hand to grab her, but it was in vain.

"Wait a minute, first graders!"

Sugawara Kyoko chased after her, "Aren't you afraid?"

"You can feel it, can't you?"

"It's one of the spirits, trying to occupy your body to slow down the speed of self-dissipation. Although it won't squeeze out the soul that you ordinary people recognize, it will still consume your own energy.

Do you feel that you are more tired recently than before? "

"..."

Zhao Wuling stopped suddenly.

The two had already walked out of the corner, Sugawara Kyoko glanced at the first-year students who were leaving, and continued:

"I can't dispel the ghost spirit on you by myself. If you don't mind, please come back to the shrine with me."

Chao Wuling didn't respond, but looked at the person who moved away from the crowd and made her feel tired recently.

"It was here."

Soya looked at her, and then at Kyoko Sugawara who was beside her, "We meet again, Ms. Sugawara... no, I should be called Senior Sister."

"..."

"She is the person I take care of. If you have anything to do, just tell me."
