All of a sudden, the whole store was quiet and everyone was silent. Of course, they might just be tired.
Suddenly, Hongye slammed the table and sat up: "Tui Mom! You are the top scholar! Come and teach me how to read!"
"Go find your sister Fang. My way of learning is not suitable for teaching others."
The league secretary said: "This guy was the top student in his senior year, but he was the one who got the least questions from his classmates because many people couldn't understand him when he explained the questions. He would also be very confused, 'Why didn't you understand me when I explained it very simply'."
"Wow, Tui Ma has such a bad personality." Hua Gu Shuang sighed.
Masha looked innocent: "I really feel it's very strange. I really don't understand why they don't understand, and I don't understand what they don't understand. I have no way to break down and refine my explanation any further."
Qianxun laughed and said, "So he and I have been childhood sweethearts for so many years. We have done everything together, except studying. He didn't need me to explain anything at all, and I couldn't understand his explanation."
Cai Shi suddenly sat up straight and said, "When I asked Tuima a question about history, he explained it in great detail."
"That's history. And you have to be careful, be very careful, this guy will mix his own personal opinions into the history short answer questions, and he might mix them in when he explains them to you. Although the short answer questions are scored according to the points, you won't lose points if you write too much, but if you meet a teacher who doesn't agree with your values, you will be in trouble." Qianxun said, pointing at herself with a thumbs up, "This is a lesson I learned the hard way in junior high school."
Masha shrugged and asked a practical question: "What's for dinner?"

After taking a bath and changing her clothes, Kikuri Komachi put on her school uniform with a sense of relief and prepared to go to school.
However, as soon as he walked out of the torii gate of his own shrine, Xiao Shi saw a black luxury car parked on the road below the long stone steps.
The man in the suit stood beside the car, looking up at Xiao Shi who was still at the top of the stone steps.
——I have a bad feeling.
——It’s still early for this year’s sacrifice, so people from the city hall probably won’t come to contact us about matters related to the sacrifice right now.
——Could it be an official from the Ministry of Education?
Although Kikuri Taisha Shrine in Omiya is not as famous as large shrines such as Kasuga Taisha Shrine and Ise Jingu Shrine, it is the most famous shrine in the local area, with a large number of worshippers. As a religious corporation, it participates in local politics in all aspects.
Xiao Shi was influenced by everything around him, so naturally he knew a lot about the affairs of the upper class Chinese.
From time to time, someone who looked like an official would come to see her in a black limousine.
But the timing wasn’t right this year.
Xiao Shi listened to the cicadas chirping, tilted his head slightly, thought about all the possibilities, but still couldn't find the reason why he was suddenly summoned.
——Forget it, let’s go down and take a look first.
She calmed herself down and walked down the stairs.
"Ms. Kikuri Komaki," the official-dressed man bowed to Komaki and showed his ID, "I'm Takagi from the Public Security Division 1."
"Huh?" Xiao Shi was shocked. "Public Security? Is this about the mayoral election?"
After Xiao Di finished speaking, he suddenly covered his mouth.
For some things that are not easy to do openly, local religious corporations will take over and handle them. This is almost the norm in Japan.
Xiao Shi also once dressed as a shrine maiden and passed through a small window behind the sliding door to deliver envelopes containing gift money to people passing through the corridor one by one.
She couldn't see who took the gift money, that was the rule.
However, if something goes wrong with any of them, investigators will definitely first come to question the religious legal person in charge of the intermediary.
Ancient temples like Kikuri Taisha and the priest families who have inherited the temples are all under the management of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology and enjoy a certain degree of immunity.
This is the best part of the whole system.
In Japan, if you want to be elected mayor or county council member, you must first establish good relations with temples and shrines.
Xiao Shi believed that something must have gone wrong with the election.
But Gao Mu shook his head: "It has nothing to do with those. I heard that you are fluent in Chinese?"
"Ah?" Xiao Shi was very confused, but still answered, "Yes, because there are a lot of Chinese in the prayers and prayers, and most of the books collected by our company are also in Chinese. What's wrong?"
“And you can also dance Kagura?”
"Yes, starting next year, I will take over from my mother and become the protagonist of the festival, so I have been practicing hard. What happened?"
"The official appointment will be given to your father tomorrow through the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. Time is running out, so please come now."

Takagi took Xiao Shi and flew directly to Tokyo.
"What?" Xiao Shi, wearing her school uniform, looked at the Sky Tree outside, and was in a state of complete madness. "Huh? Why did I come to Tokyo?"
She was so surprised that she even spoke in a Kansai accent.
“Because there is a mission.”
"Mission?" Xiao Shi's eyes widened. "Huh? The police gave me a mission? I'm just a girl in the second year of high school!"
"Ms. Kikuri, you don't know that there are many high school students your age who are fighting for world peace."
"Eh?" Xiao Di was stunned again, "What kind of animation is this?"
“This is reality, please keep it in mind.”
As we were talking, the car drove across the cross-sea bridge and onto the latest land reclamation project in Tokyo Bay - the New Odaiba Island where there were no buildings yet.
The car stopped directly in front of a building that looked like some kind of huge hangar. Takagi got out first, then walked around to Xiao Shi and opened the car door.
"please."
At this time, Xiao Shi's cell phone rang.
When she looked at the caller ID, it was her father.
"I can……"
"Please help yourself."
Xiao Shi pressed the call button.
Then I heard my father's voice: "Xiao Shi, the appointment from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has been issued. I didn't expect this day to come so soon."
"Eh?" Xiao Di made the sound again. It seemed like she always made the same sound today.
"The shrine maidens are the medium between humans and gods. Our Kikuri family has been fulfilling this duty for generations. Although it has been a long time since there has been a shrine maiden who can make the gods descend, this situation will gradually change in the future."
"Eh? Dad, what are you talking about?"
"Remember the training you received at home, and work hard in Tokyo on behalf of our Kikuri family."
"Wait a minute, I don't understand anything!" Xiao Shi finally shouted, "If you don't explain it clearly, I don't know what to do!"
"Of course, it is to complete the mission of the shrine maiden of the Kikuri family."
"So, what exactly is this mission?" Xiao Shi was about to cry.
At this time, her mother's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Don't worry, Xiao Shi, just practice as usual. As long as you do every step right, the shrine goddess Kikuhime-no-Mikoto, who has been worshipped by our family for generations, will definitely help Xiao Shi."
Xiao Shi gave up trying to understand what her parents said.
"Yeah, I get it, Mom," she said.
"Well, good luck then." After saying that, the person on the other end hung up the phone.
Xiao Shi put away the phone.
Gao Mu said, "It seems that you are still confused. I was hoping that your parents' call would help you figure out the situation, but it seems that this has no effect. Come this way, the person in charge of the mission will explain the whole story to you from the beginning."
"Oh." Xiao Shi nodded.
She followed Takagi into the huge hangar building.
Then she exclaimed: "Amazing... Is this the Gundam maintenance warehouse?"
"Where can you find a Gundam that short!" The pockmarked man in a gray maintenance uniform shouted to Xiao Shi, "You should at least say it's an armored trooper! At least the setting is closer! Listen carefully, these are powered exoskeletons, the treasures of the Special Machine Section 2!"
It looked like the pockmarked man was still trying to explain to Xiao Shi, but from a distance, a majestic roar with a gangster-like tongue-twisting sound at the end came: "Over there! Don't be lazy!"
The pockmarked man immediately buried his head in his work and ignored Xiao Shi.
Xiao Shi followed Takagi and walked through the huge maintenance space.
She noticed that in addition to the mechanics, who were obviously all adults, there was a small group of very young high school students, probably her own age, gathered in a corner of the hangar chatting.
——Are those the high school students who are said to be saving the world?
——Does this mean that only high school students can operate these powered exoskeletons?
——Does this mean that I will become a mecha pilot?
Xiao Shi was once again shocked by his own speculation.
——What should I do! I have never watched any mecha-related works! The only animation I watch is Pretty Cure!
At this time, Takagi led Xiao Shi into a place that looked like a conference room. In the conference room, a girl younger than Xiao Shi was drinking matcha with big gulps, and at the end, she made a "Pu Ha" sound.
That sound is so cute.
Then the little girl saw Xiao Shi.
"Ah," she said with a bright smile, "Good morning, meow!"
Xiao Shi bowed politely: "Good morning, nice to meet you, please take care of me."
"Oh, oh, please take care of me." The little girl quickly stood up and responded politely.
Gao Mu said: "You two wait here for a moment."
After saying that, he left.
Xiao Shi carefully sat down at the table. At this time, the little girl leaned on the table and asked lazily, "Are you also a virtual broadcaster (VTB)?"
"Eh? V...what?"
"Oh, isn't it? I thought it was the same as me. No, it's not me either, it's my mom. But a lot of the best replies are basically me doing the live broadcast. I am the core of Fubuki's interesting soul! Because our voices are very similar, the audience can hardly tell them apart. But I use my real voice for the live broadcast. To make such a sound, my mom needs to use the skills of a voice actor. It's better to say that Xiao Hei's voice is closer to my mom's real voice!"
Xiao Shi was filled with questions after hearing what the little girl said.
"???"
Just when Xiao Shi was completely confused, the little girl suddenly raised her hands and shouted: "Da Chuxing, Chen Shengwang!"
Xiao Shi understands Chinese and understood it immediately.
Then I became even more confused.
"Eh? Why did you suddenly shout the slogan of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang?"
"Oh, is that so? I have no idea. My mom asked me to learn a sentence in Chinese, so I followed the pronunciation of Butt Crack Lady. What does this mean?"
Just as Xiao Shi was about to explain, the door to the conference room opened.
An extremely unreliable old man with dead eyes and a lack of motivation appeared. He seemed to go fishing on the edge of the artificial island in his pajamas during work hours.
"Hello, I'm Goto, the chief of the Special Machine Section 2. I'm in charge of explaining to you the outline of Operation Sarutahiko."
As the shrine maiden and heir of Kikuri Taisha Shrine, Kikuri Komachi naturally knew what kind of god Sarutahiko was. She frowned slightly, looked at the unmotivated and unreliable uncle Goto, and waited for him to continue.
"It all happened suddenly," Goto scratched the back of his head, "I don't know how to set the stage, so I'll just say it straight out. Superpowers do exist in this world."
For a moment, silence reigned in the conference room.
Xiao Shi: “Eh hey hey?”
"Big sister, you are too surprised, this must be a joke." The little girl waved her hand, "If super powers exist in this world, then Fubuki is a cat."
Goto put on a weary poker face and said again: "I'm not kidding, super powers do exist."
This time, the entire conference room was completely silent and no one broke the silence.
Finally, Goto spoke up: "But can you accept that this is the fact that is happening? The Special Machine Section 2 is one of the special mobile teams directly under the Prime Minister's Office that assists psychics in dealing with psychic crimes and covering up the truth."
The little girl opposite Xiao Di suddenly meowed.
Only then did Xiao Shi react: "Eh? Superpowers?"
"Yes, super powers."
"So, you called me here because... No, I don't have super powers?"
"No, you don't, but you can dance the Kagura dance, and as far as we know, you dance very well, and you know Chinese. In addition, you like to wear your hair in a carefully tied up bun."
"Eh?" Xiao Shi touched his hair, "Is this also related?"
