I'm a ghost story witch in Tokyo

Chapter 46 46. The Eve of the Goddess Festival

"Get ready first, we'll be there later."

Rachel stretched out on the bed.

"Yes."

Asakura bowed towards the door and left quickly.

Outside the door is a sunny corridor, and the light-colored window paper is illuminated brightly.

The sound of dance music fluctuated from far to near, and everything during the day was normal. The priests, priests, and witches also sang scriptures and music with blessing meanings, not cursing people to death, with unknown meanings.

In the curse festival last night, the witches were not cursing people or things in a narrow sense. They were cursing all the witches who opposed the priestess festival and tried to betray Asahina.

Those witches who sneaked away using the strange tales of Weeping Mountain are probably also in the ranks of the curse. The witches who left made a plan not to come back in this life.

The young witches didn't want to leave on a whim. After staying here for three days, Rui Ji had a deep understanding of the suffocation here.Asahina may seem calm and energized during the festive season, but she is not.

This place has already died as early as the Azuchi Momoyama era, leaving only an empty body. The goddess sacrifice is just to provide nutrients for this body, so that it will not perish so quickly.

Last night's "carnival" left Rui Ji with lingering fears, and there was only a ring of ashes left on the shimen rope around the iron frame bed.It will use all its strength to resist the damage caused by the strange talk at night, and it will disappear naturally when its power is exhausted.

The sudden gray color completely dissipated in the sunlight without leaving any trace, as if someone had quietly taken Shimenawawa.

"Today is the last day."

She couldn't hide the excitement and anticipation in her heart.

During the dozens of hours I stayed in the regional ghost talk, there was not a second that I did not miss the shrine at home, the sultry tatami floor, the nagging of my sister Jingliu and the chicken curry rice she made.

Really comfortable at home.

Now she is going to work hard to return to her own world, and her heart is full of the blood of a Japanese manga heroine.

"Yeah, on the last day, eat more for lunch and prepare some food that can be taken with you. We still have a lot of preparations to do, so don't lose the chain at this time."

Yue, who was lying beside her, got up, and the dark gray yukata just slipped off, revealing her delicate shoulders and collarbone.

This is the second time that Rui Ji has enjoyed such a superb view.

People with common sense know that the bottom of the yukata is hollow. Even if the hem of the yukata blocks the view, you can still draw some wonderful pictures through reverie.

Taking advantage of the interval between washing and preparing, she joked: "The witches who are cold these days, have facial paralysis or don't like to laugh are called [Flowers of High Mountains]. The attributes of Flowers of High Mountains will attract many interested people, and they will become An admirer of Kaolin Flower. Ms. Yue, you must have many fans, right?"

"Unfortunately, I don't have the qualifications to be liked at all. Everyone is tired of me being such a self-righteous and arrogant witch. Because I can't do blatant bullying, I have to say bad things behind my back and make small moves."

Yue directly denies Rui Ji's speculation.

"Daily life in comics and animations may not be reality. It may be the epitome of the hopes of people who are suffering in real life. Well, it's time for us to go to the restaurant."

Regarding her private affairs, this mysterious witch refused to talk a word.As for what she said about being hated by others, Rui Ji certainly didn't believe it.

Good-looking, handsome witch with a clean and neat style, knowledgeable and knowledgeable, except for her tense expression, she can't find any shortcomings. How can such a person be liked by no one?

It must be Yue Zai who is humble and wants to maintain a low-key and stable image as much as possible.

Rui Ji put on the uniform of Waseda Witch High School, which was cleanly washed, except that he didn't wear a tie.To wear a tie, the button closest to the throat must be buttoned, and the damn sense of restraint will remind her of the strong pressure on the airway of the curse ceremony, and thus recall the unpleasant experience.

It's not at school, it doesn't make sense to dress too formally.

Shouldn't the tie be used in a dark and deserted magic equipment room, tied to the hands of a witch, and then everyone can talk about the biological knowledge of the origin and continuation of the witch.

Different from her slovenly appearance, Yue dressed up like a witch who was going to school for the opening ceremony. Not only did she button up the last button of her uniform shirt, but even her tie didn't shift a single bit. It was impossible for her to think that she was going to decipher regional strange stories next. fixed rules.

After putting on the uniform, the next step is to check the belongings and the fuel compartment of the motorized broom.With sufficient fuel, it can fly about 100 kilometers on a full charge.They will also carry some spare fuel in order to increase the cruising range in time.

After meticulously completing the preparations, they left the bedroom and went to the dining room on the first floor.

The indoor dining area was full, so we had to move to the outdoor dining area in the courtyard.An automated sunshade roof was built on it, and two-thirds of the guests were seated, leaving a few empty tables.

The business in the store is very good, and the waiters and witches are very busy.

I just passed by a sulfur hot spring pool that was booked out, a rich witch and some witch friends, and I found a few beautiful witches from Asahina, and everyone played the game of exercising wrist and arm strength while soaking in the bath, There was laughter and laughter all around, and the scene was very exciting.

Rui Ji blushed a little, Yue's face didn't fluctuate, and she pretended not to see it.

Lunch is particularly well prepared, known as Osechi cuisine in Japan, it is only made on major official festivals, and the style of food is richer than daily meals.

Traditional Osechi dishes are served in five-layer lacquer boxes, called "five-layer heavy", and each box is filled with different ingredients. One to four heavy are various festive ingredients, seafood and barbecue, boiled food and vinegar Pickled vegetables, mixed vegetables, and no food at the end, implying "the gods bestow happiness", and the empty lacquer boxes are used to hold the gods' gifts.

Guests staying at Oyu no Mizu can also enjoy this kind of treatment, there is no extra charge, and if it is included in the meal fee paid at the time of check-in, the business will be good and it is not worth making a fuss about.

After serving the food, the witch called Asakura did not leave for a long time, with a hesitant expression on her face.

"Anything else?"

Yue felt that the witch still had something to say.

Since the day before yesterday, Asakura has been hiding in the corner watching them.

"Boss...I...Actually, the coffins with the sacrifices are not in the main hall, they have been transferred to the mikoshi hall. Therefore, there may be traps in the main hall. These are all told by Utsunomiya who works in the shrine. You can Go ask her."

After speaking, Asakura slipped away.

The authenticity of the information remains to be investigated, and it is very likely that it is a smoke bomb placed by the shrine.They still don't know whether Asakura is standing on the side of the shrine, or if he really wants to stop the goddess festival.

There is a sudden divergence in the mission route, and the next action seems to have to be adjusted.
