My Boss, the White-haired Nun

"The ancestors came here with their wives and daughters, and gained the favor of the tree gods. They were moved by them until tears flowed, and then they moved the people here, and then there was a village." He rubbed his slender and white fingers on the recording paper, and wiped the words on it one by one. Read it word by word.

When recording this text, Yae Village still believed in the Danzakura plant.

It was the same as Yae Sakura said, he thought.

No, wait, it's not the same.

His fingers kept scribbling on this sentence, and finally stayed in one place.

"Wife and daughter..."

He repeated the two words again.

Leaving aside the "wife", the term "female" here should mean that she has not left the court, so it meets the requirements of a "pure girl".This girl should be the first shrine maiden in Yae Village.

Gong Ming frowned and thought for a while, then turned his head and looked at the wall of the room facing the door, where a long piece of cloth was hanging.

That was the family tree of the Yae family.

Miko is a person who serves the gods with her body, and is not included in the family tree according to common practice.But Yae Village is different from other places here. Instead, each generation of gods and witches is the main family, which has been inherited from generation to generation.

Back when the Yae family still believed in the red cherry tree, the castle tower was where the genealogy was kept.Later, Yae Village converted to different beliefs, and the old genealogy was left there, and a new genealogy was established.This move means to change the family and change the family. The Yae family who originally served Danying and the new Yae family who serve the new god are also cut off.

Later, this room was seldom opened again, that is to say, occasionally when someone wants to miss their ancestors, they come to have a look and clean it.That's why such an important place looks so desolate.

He took a few steps forward in the dark, and approached the cloth on which each name was recorded.Small names are embroidered on the black cloth with special gold thread, arranged in sequence.Behind each name is a life that was once alive, and the period of time he once lived.

He put his finger on it, as if tracing the origin of time, his fingers passed over the names one by one, spanning hundreds of years, until reaching the top of the entire cloth.

Eightfold hour.

This is the name of the founder of the whole village.

Then his bottom should be...

His index finger moved down a little, revealing the name that was originally covered by his finger.

Suddenly, Gong Ming's eyes froze.

Is this a coincidence?

I saw a name he was very familiar with written on that position...

Yae Sakura.

……

"Mr. Nicholas, what do you want me to do..." Yae Sakura walked into the gate of the castle tower and asked with a puzzled expression on Gong Ming who was sitting there looking up at the sky.

"Sakura." Gong Ming withdrew his gaze from a distance, turned his head to look at the girl walking towards him, and couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

"I have a few questions I want to ask you."

"Teacher, please tell me."

"Hmm... that's right, I want to ask, how old are you, Sakura?"

"Nineteen years old." Yae Sakura blinked and replied, "What's wrong? You suddenly asked this?"

"Nineteen years old?" Gong Ming shook his head and thought for a while, then suddenly laughed. "It's really like a flower's age."

"Thank you teacher for your compliment." After listening to Gong Ming's words, Yae Sakura saluted him seriously.

"Stop standing there, come, sit here." Gong Ming looked at Yae Sakura who had been standing there, and beckoned to her, "Come, sit beside me."

"En." Now that Gong Ming said so, Yae Sakura obediently walked to his side, gathered her skirt, and sat down beside him.

"Ms. Nicholas came to me, probably because I have something to tell you?" Yae Sakura looked at the man beside her and asked.

From the perspective she is in now, she can clearly see the knife-like outline of his face and the deep aura in the depths of his pupils.

This is a man with a story.

Obviously, she already knew the man in front of her very well, but Yae Sakura suddenly thought this way unconsciously.Then he looked at it, and suddenly covered his mouth and laughed.

What, he must have many stories, don't you already know it very well?

"Why are you smiling like that all of a sudden?"

Gong Ming was a little dazed by Yae Sakura who suddenly laughed beside him, raised his hand to touch his face, and asked a little strangely. "Is there something on my face?"

"No, no." Yae Sakura quickly waved her hand, "I just suddenly remembered something."

"Is that so..."

Seeing that Yae Sakura didn't want to say anything, Gong Ming couldn't continue asking.Just shook his head.

Girl's mind, as a man, it's better not to guess.

He still has this self-awareness.

"...Speaking of which, Sakura." After a little hesitation, Gong Ming asked. "What do you think of Karen?"

"Karen?" Yae Sakura was taken aback by this question, seeing that Gong Ming's expression did not seem to be joking, she thought about it seriously, and then answered.

"Karen, is my most important person."

"The most important person?" Gong Ming was a little surprised by the answer, thought for a while, and continued to ask.
