"The time is almost up. I should have left half a month ago, but I have been staying here."
Yuzhuanjin said.
At this time, Tamamonomae recalled that Oonin was a god. Logically speaking, gods should not descend to the mortal world. The fact that the latter manifested his incarnation through special methods and could maintain it until now was already an anomaly.
Finally it's time to leave...
"…No matter where Lord Inari goes, I will not leave."
Tamamonomae shamelessly begged for a hug.
"It's just you. I never thought about it at all."
Yuzhongjin sighed inwardly.
"Well~ Lord Inari never thought that I would leave. This is a symbol of love. Great!"
Tamamonomae was already 〖ヾ(●??｀●)ノ哇～〗.
"I hate separation, no matter what the situation."
Yuzhongjin just looked up at the bright moon, ignoring Tamamonomae who was enjoying herself.
……
The first thing to do in the New Year is to visit the shrine to pray for the gods' protection in the new year.
Early in the morning, everyone gathered at the intersection of the commercial street.
Asagami Fujino was wearing a red kimono, which made her stand out in the crowd. The ends of her hair had traces of being trimmed, and it was obvious that she had dressed up specially for the appointment.
"Today Fujino is more beautiful than ever."
Yuzhongjin praised naturally.
"Thank you, teacher……"
Asami Fujino's behavior was awkward.
"Let's go, let's go to the shrine and worship first."
I always felt it was particularly strange when Yuzhuanjin said this.
"Even though Fushimi-sensei is a shrine maiden and lives in the shrine, you have to go somewhere else to worship."
Qian Shen Teng Nai explained the reason at the same time.
“That’s too boring.”
Yuzhongjin explained.
"Let me see, the nearest big shrine is Inari Shrine. How about we go there?" Asagami Fujino knew that Teacher Fushimi was the shrine maiden of Inari God, so she tried to please him.
"No, I think Sensō-ji Temple is pretty good."
Yuzhongjin put forward her idea.
“But it’s a temple.”
Asami Fujino's expression changed several times.
"No one has stipulated that shrine maidens cannot go to temples."
Yuzhuanjin didn't care.
Asagami Fujino couldn't object to this, so she made the decision happily.
Having said that, the shrine maiden going to the temple was still too conspicuous, so Yuzhongjin cast a spell of "confusing the audience" on the way.
Pay homage and then draw lots.
This can help predict your fortune for the coming year.
Although it was a metaphysical tradition, it had become an indispensable tradition. Tamamonomae ran to draw the lot first and took out a piece of paper...
"It's a big evil!"
Tamamonomae shouted out her results.
Yuzhuanjin was not surprised at all.
"How can I repair it? If it was at the Inari Shrine, Lord Inari would definitely bless me!"
Tamamonomae clenched the fortune stick tightly with an unwilling expression.
"No way……"
Asagami Fujino glanced at the fortune stick in Tamamonomae's hand. You know, during the special festival of the Spring Festival, almost all shrines will deliberately eliminate the "unlucky" fortune sticks.
Therefore, it is very easy to draw "good luck". Of course, this does not mean that there is no "bad luck". It is just that most of the draws are not very bad luck. The probability of a very bad luck is at most .
In other words, only 15 people out of will receive this kind of treatment.
"...Banji."
Sakura Matou took out her fortune stick. It wasn't very good, but much better than Tamamonomae's.
"Mine is also half Ji..."
Asagami Fujino then reported her results.
"The moon shines on the celestial book, clouds and mists create colorful clouds. I have long missed the guest who left the court, and I feel sad for nothing."
This poem was written on the fortune stick.
The moon shines on the sky and the book is quiet - just like the sky is clear without haze and the moon can be clearly seen, there is no confusion, and the heart is clear.
The first paragraph refers to Asagami Fujino's personal status.
Clouds give rise to mist and colorful clouds - but the moon I have seen so far has also been covered with clouds, and I feel confused.
What it means is that the person who cleared the haze for her is now confused.
Long-missed guest from the court - parting with a close friend, temporarily immersed in sad thoughts.
I guess it's about parting.
Complaining about nothing - Although there is nothing to worry about, there are many things to complain about, so please change your mood.
I always feel like something bad is going to happen today.
The last one is Ootenjin. When the fortune stick is opened, the "evil" on it is particularly prominent.
Although it is not a serious disaster, it is just a disaster.
"When the Tao is not yet complete, how can you expect that both are not suitable? Things are bothering you and your mind is in a mess, and you are wandering and thinking."
“Is this to make me make a decision sooner?”
Yu Zhuanjin murmured in a low voice.
"It doesn't look very good. Why don't we go somewhere else and smoke again?"
Asagami Fujino suggested.
"No, one revelation from the gods and Buddhas is enough."
Yuzhongjin looked towards the temple, wondering if the gods and Buddhas could really be watching over this place in this age when mystery had faded.
After completing the primary activities of the Spring Festival, everyone decided to go to the commercial street for fun. There were quite a lot of New Year activities.
By the afternoon, Tamamonomae was holding a huge pile of spoils.
Although there were only toys and snacks, Tamamonomae was happy.
Yu Zhuanjin was waiting for the opportunity, but some words were difficult to say after all.
If you have fun, you will get tired quickly.
Sitting on the benches in the park, everyone took a rest.
"I'll go get some water."
Sakura Matou took the initiative to do the job for everyone.
"Xiaoyu."
Mizoguchi called out to Tamamonomae and asked her to go along.
"learn!"
Tamamonomae probably realized Ootenzu's purpose, so she didn't say much.
Looking at the backs of Matou Sakura and Tamamonomae, only Asagami Fujino was left by their side.
Miozu knew that this was the best time, so he looked at Asagami Fujino.
"Fushimi-sensei..."
Asagami Fujino felt shy at the sight of Mizoguchi.
"Fujino."
Yuzhuanjin spoke.
"I'm here."
Asami Fujino nodded slightly.
"Did you know? No, I never told you that, and you weren't supposed to know."
Yuzhongjin said to himself: "Ying is an unfortunate child. She should have lived in a happy world, but she ended up having a character no less evil than that of Gao Yanskaya. Of course, she is definitely not as bad as that fox. She is lively and cheerful, and the innocence of a girl will eventually be reflected in her."
"That's how it should be, but she was born into a family of magicians. Fujino, although I have told you about the world of magic, that is only the tip of the iceberg."
"I once said that Ying is a child just like you. Even though she is smiling now, I know that it is just a smile she has to put on to please others. She is also a person who is missing something, just like you."
……
"No!"
Asagami Fujino suddenly retorted: "Sakura's smile is definitely not forced."
The reason why she said this is because she knew it more deeply.
Just as Yuzenji said, Asagami Fujino knew how much he was lacking in the past.
But after meeting Yuzhongjin, she would smile unconsciously.
"No matter what happened in the past, at least at this moment, Sakura is happy."
Asagami Fujino seemed to be talking about herself.
"..."
Of course, Yuzhongjin understood Asagami Fujino's underlying meaning, and because of this, she said even more apologetically: "But this happiness cannot last forever."
"Fushimi-sensei?"
Asagami Fujino sensed something unusual.
"I'm leaving. I'm going to a very far place. I can't and won't stay in one place forever. Where I'm going, Sakura can't go either."
Yuzhongjin finally said this.
Hearing this, Asagami Fujino couldn't help but purse his lips and clenched the fortune stick in his pocket.
Is this the revelation from gods and Buddhas?
Even without the revelation, Asagami Fujino knew that Yuzuo appeared in her world like the wind, and would leave like the wind sooner or later.
It's just a matter of time.
Should I keep him? Will I be disliked if I do so?
There are so many things to think about that I don’t know where to start.
"…If it's possible, Fujino, could you please take care of Sakura after I leave?"
Mizotsu asks Asagami Fujino for her opinion.
"I can."
Asagami Fujino raised her head and said sincerely: "I will treat her as my sister, and I will make Sakura a better person when you come back next time."
"Will you come back next time?"
Yuzhongjin couldn't help but look up at the sky, which was her habit when she couldn't give a clear response.
