The festival was announced a little suddenly, and I didn't find the time to visit Alice again after that day. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Suddenly, under the rich festival atmosphere, the harvest festival quietly arrived.

For a few days, people were busy and festive, and even Reimu was not idle, and was asked by the village to go to various places in Gensokyo to invite the gods who were friendly to humans to participate in the festival.

Regrettably, it seems that the festival was held a few days ago by the Moriya Shrine on Yokai Mountain, and it naturally included Kagura's dance.

I guess I won't be able to see Reimu's beautiful dance this time.

In addition to going around to inform the gods, Reimu was also asked for a lot of trivial things, such as this year's Moriya Shrine where only a young Fuzhu really did things, and the rules and customs of many festivals also had to be taken care of by Reimu.

But it's probably also because I'm afraid that the gods will make some trouble when they get drunk, and the presence of the Hakurei shrine maiden is always reassuring.

Mo Ming is also not idle. I went to Renli in the morning to routinely sell breakfast, and when I closed the stall, I was pulled by Uncle Fujii of the dim sum house, and I had to go to the cold house to talk about it.

After discussing and studying the sweets and offerings, it was evening when the harvest festival was about to begin.

When Mo Ming rushed back to the shrine, Reimu had already gone out.

Picked out two nice bottles of wine from the warehouse, tied a nice bow, and put them in a bag. I took some silver money on my body.,Put on the same set that was custom-made before.、The more orthodox red and white god costume in the shrine.。

He straightened his clothes in front of the bronze mirror.

Then he pointed to the mirror: "Yes, the young man is very handsome." ”

"Poof. Suddenly, there was a girl's laughter.

Mo Ming looked around the empty room, and then took out the yin-yang jade he was carrying.

"Reimu, where's it?"

"Teacher, Sanae and I just arrived in the village, and Marisa is here. ”

"Oh, so you were peeking just now, right?"

Speaking from experience, if you just say Lingmeng, you will spy on me again! Eighty percent of the Yin Yang Jade will not have any sound coming from there.

Therefore, in order not to let the little witch on the other side pretend to be dead, it is natural to use general topics to lure her out first.

"Ah, that...... No, I just happened to listen to the sound and definitely didn't peek!"

"Well, forget it," now is not the time to dwell on this, Mo Ming replied, "You guys drink less wine at night, and I'll go to the village later." ”

Carrying the burden of sake, he walked out of the shrine.

Seeing that it was already drunk, Alice thought that Alice had probably gone out to the village at this point, so she walked directly to the village.

Anyway, let's go to the Night Sparrow Monster's stall for a drink.

After staying in Gensokyo for a long time, Mo Ming's alcohol consumption has finally improved a little......

Beer only, of course.

......

......

During the festival, the busiest thing is the self-police team in the world, especially at the harvest festival.

Because of the presence of the gods, many youkai who love to be lively also arrived. Most of the monsters are not law-abiding, and they only act according to their own code of conduct, which can easily cause trouble in the village, and always make the captain of the police team, Fujiwara Mei, very angry.

Mo Ming also has a deep understanding of this, just like the two people who walked in front of them dressed as mysterious people, they don't look like good people.

The taller ones are wearing a black trench coat, black hats, sunglasses, and a mask.

Among the pedestrians on the bustling street, the two walked casually. It doesn't seem to have been noticed, and no one dares to approach it within two square meters of its body, as if it has its own enchantment.

There's no way around it, after all, it's hard to get close to the outfit of a terrorist.

In addition, Mo Ming also saw the little ghost who came to the shrine before, walking down the street with two horns, holding a wine gourd in his hand, and grinning, and seemed to enjoy the lively atmosphere very much.

Compared to the two men in black, the appearance of the ghost did not cause any turmoil, and most of the people followed the principle of seeing and pretending not to see it, and were busy with the things in hand.

I also met the young girl who had been practicing in the shrine for a while, the soul demon dream, and the kimono woman who walked in front of her was holding a full of meatball skewers and fried meat skewers in her left hand and right hand, and she was the beautiful ghost who had admired her for a long time and had several encounters - Yuyuko of Seighiroji Temple.

Of course, none of this could stop Mo Ming's footsteps. After turning around, pushing and shouting, I finally found the familiar night bird barbecue stall in the old location of the south block of the village.

"Yo, Miski, I haven't seen you for a long time, but she's still as cute as ever~"

"Mo Mo Mo Mo Jun suddenly said something, cute or something......

As always, greetings and one-sided teasing.

I lifted the curtain and looked inside, but I didn't see a familiar blonde figure, and if I heard that Alice's puppet show at the summer festival was unexpectedly popular with children and became a popular show, I am afraid that I would not have the leisure time to come here to eat barbecue.

Well, if she was planning to become popular at the beginning, she is now a big step forward.

"Miski-chan, the old rule is to have one~"

"Hi-hi~" the Night Sparrow Monster responded.

In every sense of the word, the barbecue stalls are busy with the arrival of customers.

As soon as he took his seat, someone opened the curtain and walked in.

"Oh, isn't this Teacher Mo Ming?" are a few naughty students that I took with me when I was in the temple house before.

"Ha, it's a few of you," Mo Ming also laughed, "I haven't seen you for a long time, where have you made your fortune recently?"

"Uh......" seemed to be not very accustomed to Mo Ming's greeting full of rivers and lakes, which made Sasaki stunned, and Miyake on the side took over the conversation with a smile, "Recently, I have been learning the management of account books and the operation of money with my father......"

"Why does Little Eagle Jun have time to come and eat barbecue, is it okay over there?" Mo Ming decisively ignored Miyake's words.

Remember that this guy named Kenji Miyake proposed to the village chief to Reimu before?Mo Ming, who was apparently blind to this, actually remembered it very clearly, in short...... It's probably a very subtle grudge mentality - with you, you also want to propose to our family Reimeng?

The barnyard eagle's answer was as evidence-based as ever: "I'm just busy in the next place, and I just happened to meet it, and I have to go to the head of the family later......"

While talking, the little night bird brought the beer and barbecue ordered by Mo Ming.

"You talk, I'll start first. After bringing it to another table, Mo Ming began to feast while pricking up his ears to listen to their chat.

Mo Ming, a young man whose mental age is about middle age, does not intend to interject arbitrarily.

How to say it, the topic between young people nowadays is so open, and it is not at all like the folk customs in Gensokyo.

"Speaking of which, I plan to ask my dad to help me go to Fujii's house after the New Year. The topic was brought up by Sasaki.

"Ah, so Dad also said that I was almost at the age of kissing. ”

"I'm not making any progress at all, Suzu, too......," the big man, Murakami, fell into depression again.

The topic doesn't seem to pick up...... However, it seems that we had a good chat.

However, it was probably because they were worried about Mo Ming, who was eating on the side, and the rest of the people did not tease Xiaoying and Miyake about Reimu anymore.

Mo Ming slowly finished his barbecue, and only half of the beer was drunk.

He stared at the tent for a moment, then got up and said goodbye to the students who were eating.

Handing a bottle of wine to Mistia as a holiday gift, causing Nightfinch to panic again.

I left the barbecue stall and strolled down the street.

......

......

The night is getting darker.

At the traffic intersections between the blocks, bonfires that had been set up before were lit one after another.

In addition, the terrain of Gensokyo is flat, and firewood that can only be obtained in the distant mountains and forests is a relatively precious thing for the villagers, and the fact that bonfires can be lit here and there at this time shows the importance and solemnity of the villagers to this festival.

There is nothing more joyful than being able to harvest a good harvest.

There seemed to be cheers and commotion faintly separated by several streets, and the villagers on the side of the road said that the god of harvest had appeared over there.

Speaking of the god of harvest, it is considered the god of the main feast at the harvest festival. A few years ago, when he participated in this harvest festival, Mo Ming had seen it once, and at that time, he had also crowded into the crowd with great curiosity about the gods, but he did not see any strange people with fairy postures, but two young girls.

It is said that they are a pair of sisters named Akishizuha and Akishiko, and their identities are roughly similar to the gods in charge of the harvest like the Inari God in Mo Ming's cognition.

According to previous observations, although the two of them were gods, they were somewhat flattered by people's hospitality, and Mo Ming didn't plan to join in the excitement anyway.

Idlers are moving towards the center of the village, and for a while, there are people on both sides of the street, except for stalls selling snacks and some small games, and the crowd is gradually thinning out.

It's a rare opportunity to try catching two goldfish, and I've heard that it's quite skillful.

Just when Mo Ming was standing in front of the stall of darts and goldfish fishing, he was suddenly lightly poked in the waist.

"That...... Teacher Mo Ming?"

I turned my head and saw a rabbit monster with a crying face.

"Reizen, what's wrong?"

"I ...... I've lost the princess...... "I was about to cry."

Mo Ming couldn't help but hold his forehead.

"How old are you, how can you get lost?"

"Suddenly it's gone, and I've been following ...... all along."

Mo Ming thought about it, and he probably understood.

It's not that I'm worried that something will happen to my princess, but that the rabbit monster himself is afraid of being punished.

However, the timid Reisen is unable to ask for a helping hand from a human who she has never met.

And in a sense, Mo Ming, this guy is quite chivalrous, weak and difficult, and the rivers and lakes are in emergency, so it is not a problem.

"Well, if Reisen asks me to touch your rabbit ears, I'll help you find your princess together. Mo Ming, who had coveted those fluffy ears for a long time, said righteously.

Looking at the rabbit monster who suddenly suffocated his face with a flushed face, I felt pleasure to some extent.

......

......

The pattern of the world is different from the past, not so much a village, but in fact it has developed to the scale of a small town, and it is not easy to find a person at such a large gathering.

Fortunately, Kaguyahime has outstanding appearance and temperament, and she is the type that is easy to make an impression when walking on the road.

According to Mo Ming's analysis, with the knowledge and character of Penglai Mountain Huiye, they may not necessarily go to the center of the village to join in the fun, so in total, the two of them searched for the four parts of the village in the east, west, south, and north of the village.

If you don't find the fireworks in half an hour, you will meet them at a separate place and add them up.

After making a search plan, Reisen was somewhat relieved, and hurriedly ran towards the west of the city.

Compared with the flustered Lingxian, Mo Ming is not in a hurry.

After all, it wasn't his princess who went missing...... Of course, that's a bit irresponsible.

He has the advantage of not being afraid to communicate with the villagers.

It is said that he tied his long hair in a bun, and asked Reisen about his clothes before, saying that he had changed into a kimono.

If you can ask passers-by, it is only a matter of time before you find this dazzling Kaguya-hime.

It didn't mean that everyone was looking for her thousands of times, and it probably only took less than a stick of incense.

Walking casually across three streets, I was pointed behind me when I asked the stall owner about a bunch of dumplings while eating them.

When he turned around, the princess, who had just described the "beautiful woman" to the stall owner, was standing there smiling at him.

The bright red kimono, which is very different from the clothes of the past, is presented in front of you with a rigorous and gorgeous attitude.

The long hair that was enough to hang down was also combed, and it seemed to be tied into a princess-like bun of some era, and against the background of the campfire not far away and the oil lamp nearby, it seemed that there was some light makeup on the face and between the lips.

"What's wrong?" Kaguya smiled.

"It's nothing," after about 3 seconds, Mo Ming swallowed the dumpling he had just swallowed in his mouth, and said, "Your Lingxian was looking for you just now, saying that you were lost." ”

"It's just a spin around. ”

"Oh, then you can go on, and when the fireworks are set off, remember to go to the south of the village, Reizen should be there. Pointing in the general direction of the guide, he turned his head and bit down on the last ball of the stick.

After taking two steps, Mo Ming turned around.

"How?"

Kaguya, who was slowly following behind, raised her head slightly to look at Mo Ming, and said with a smile: "I don't often come to the world. ”

"Don't tell me you don't know the way. ”

"I think it may be good for you to be a tour guide when you often go in and out of the world. ”

"Sorry, I'm busy. Mo Ming chewed the dumplings and refused.

......

......

Then, Mo Ming, who was forced to agree after being coerced instead of listening to good words, walked side by side with Penglai Mountain Huiye.

A dead fish-eyed and half-dead tone spoke, "So...... Where are you going? The venue of the festival or the spot where you want to watch the fireworks?...... By the way, my tour guide fee is quite expensive. ”

Kaguya didn't pay attention to Mo Ming's lazy talk, and just walked slowly side by side.

"Hey, speaking of which, why are you dressed like this?" As the two of them gradually walked towards the center of the village, there were more and more people, and the two of them could be said to have attracted enough attention.

Hearing this, Kaguya replied with a smile, "Isn't it common sense to dress up at the festival?"

"Where is the common sense of the outside world......"

In front of him, such a dignified and gorgeous dress as Kaguyahime, there is probably only one place in the entire street.

"Probably...... In the game?" Kaguya shook her head, "Don't mention selfishness, aren't you also dressed up?"

"It's a special case on my side. ”

Considering that she may attend the official occasion of Wu Zhu when looking for Reimu in the future, she can't be embarrassed as Reimu's parent.

"The private side is also a special case. ”

"Forget it," it was pointless to say this, "Say where you want to go, I'll take you and go, and then I'll go to Reimu." ”

"Sa, where are you going......

Mo Ming held his forehead and tried to put forward an opinion: "I want to go to the village to worship ......"

"I don't like crowded places. ”

"So find a place to wait for the fireworks?"

"It's better to be quiet. ”

"Hmm......"

There are actually many places to watch the fireworks, but there are probably no quiet seats in the current few streets, and you have to walk a little way to the outskirts of the village.

Walking side by side on the street with gorgeous kimonos and red and white kamibos is a sight to behold.

But both of them are very human, and they don't feel uncomfortable because of some attention from passers-by.

After all, one was once the princess of the fairy kingdom, and the other was a pioneer in the prosperous era.

"Speaking of which, the person who is leading the way now was once an imperial monarch. ”

It's really a sudden topic, and it's completely unclear where the other party knows these things.

Mo Ming pursed her lips: "We don't want to call this, we usually call the president or something." ”

Kaguya hid her mouth with her sleeve and smiled, "I didn't see that kind of temperament from you at all." ”

"What a coincidence, I think so too," Mo Ming smiled, and then sighed, "It's just lucky, after all...... The world makes people. ”

"But I think that luck alone will definitely not be able to go that far. ”

"Of course ......" but in the end did not take the topic.

For some reason, Mo Ming didn't want to mention it at that time.

As he spoke, he came to his destination, a pavilion with a small number of recreational buildings on the outskirts of the village.

There were relatively few people here, and there was a pair of children frolicking in the pavilion, and when they saw the two coming, they also went to the side to play.

The princess sat down on a wooden chair casually and looked at Mo Ming.

"If you're not in a hurry, let's watch the fireworks with your private interests. ”

Mo Ming was a little surprised by Kaguya's invitation.

The relationship between the two is actually very poor.

Out of the calmness of their respective personalities, they can get along with each other with a smile. But smiling and talking to people you don't like is something that even humans can easily learn.

The invitation to watch fireworks must not be out of polite courtesy.

But with Mo Ming's demeanor, he is not entangled in this regard.

I found another wooden chair in the pavilion and sat down.

Untie the baggage on your body, take out a bottle of wine and uncork it.

Sniffed slightly, and took a small sip.

"Tsk, I still can't get used to liquor. ”

Seeing this scene, Kaguyahime on the side laughed.

What's the joke? Mo Ming didn't know why.

But I didn't have a wine glass at hand, so I couldn't drink it. Otherwise, regardless of the relationship between the two, they only feel that the beauty is on the side, and they will definitely be white.

...... Then, it is estimated that he will be carried back to the shrine.

So Mo Ming decisively closed the cork, tied the bow with a ribbon, and put it back in the baggage.

Watching Mo Ming's skillful movements, Kaguya Ji sighed: "I have never heard of such a housekeeper as a monarch." ”

"Where does prejudice come from?" Mo Ming was dissatisfied again, "How can you sweep the world if you don't sweep a house, haven't you heard of it?"

I've probably never heard of it. Although they speak the same language, they are not from the same world and have different cultures.

"Could it be that Your Majesty is the type to do everything?" Kaguya asked with a smile.

"Delegating power and employing people without suspicion and taking care of household chores are completely different things. ”

"Is that so," Kaguya smiled maliciously as she covered her sleeves and covered the corners of her mouth, "I haven't had a family all my life, and in my private opinion, you really still take care of that red and white lady, ......right? What did you do?"

"I said you," Mo Ming sighed, "why do Penglai people also make such a statement about love brains?"

"Oh, how dare you say it. ”

"Isn't it?"

"Don't you think it's a bit ridiculous to say that selfishness is a love brain? It is true that the so-called love of human beings is a strong and beautiful feeling, but ......" Kaguya looked up at the fireworks that just exploded over the village, and said, "It is also an incorrigible and terminally ill feeling. Like this brilliant fireworks, it is fleeting, so it is enough to watch from a distance. ”

Mo Ming didn't expect that the fireworks would suddenly rise into the air.

The other party suddenly said such a paragraph, and then fell into a slight silence.

Then he muttered, "Oh...... Speaking of which, staying away from this 'incorrigible' relationship should be the secret of your longevity, right?"

"That's right," Kaguya nodded, "This kind of feeling, in our eyes, has always been full of pathology. ”

Mo Ming smacked his tongue.

Kaguya shook his head and said, "Maybe you don't think so, but it's true. Powerful youkai don't need ...... because of their own strength."

"Powerful monsters?" Mo Ming interrupted with a smile.

In Gensokyo, there are many very powerful and fierce youkai, but there are no truly powerful youkai.

Because the really powerful one has always been the little red and white girl who sits in the shrine and basks in the sun all day.

Mo Ming's interruption made Kaguya laugh instead.

"Really...... How can I say it, human beings who have no understanding. ”

"Are you talking about me?" Mo Mingqi said.

"Of course, is there anyone else right now?" Penglai Shan Kaguya squinted slightly, "You misunderstood from the beginning, what you say privately is powerful, not by force, but by heart." ”

"Oh?" After all, he has been working part-time as a life coach, and suddenly said, "You want to say that among the longevity races, those who are rich in heart will not be contaminated with such a disease as love?"

"That's right," said the girl with her long hair smiling, "It seems that you also understand that only the weak and the mentally poor need to use the posture of others to get along with each other, so the poorer the race, the more likely it is to be contaminated with this disease." ”

"Turning around and belittling humans, I really don't know where you got so much superiority," Mo Ming sighed, "Okay, I can roughly understand what you mean." ”

"Of course, even the occasional human being does occur. The so-called saints and sages are probably like this," Kaguya looked at Mo Ming's face and suddenly laughed, "When I first learned about the information privately, I thought that Your Excellency was such a person. ”

"No kidding," Mo Ming sighed, "I never dared to call myself a strong person, even when I stood at the top of that world, I was trembling and alive, afraid of being suddenly assassinated and killed, afraid that I would not be able to come back, afraid that Reimu would not recognize me as a teacher, afraid that everything I had done by myself would be in vain, I was afraid of everything, just trying to live had exhausted all my strength...... In your words, I am a weakling person in every word. ”

"It's pathetic. A smiling Kaguya offered mercy.

"Yes, I'm so pitiful," Mo Mingtian smiled shamelessly, "So, can you not be like a weak person like me?

Since then, old and dead have never been in contact with each other, this is the code word under it.

"Also, in comparison, you and Shin are like people of two dimensions, and they have nothing to do with each other," Kaguya smiled, and the conversation changed, "But, Shin didn't want to agree. ”

"It's too much," Mo Ming frowned, "I'm giving in here......"

"It's getting colder, Mo Mingjun. Kaguya leaned back on the bench with her hands behind her back, looking at the moonlight outside the gazebo.

"You ......"

This shifts the subject too bluntly, isn't it?

Not far in the air, a firework exploded from time to time.

Most of the people who can use fireworks to celebrate at festivals are some famous families in the village, which is probably some kind of unique custom in Gensokyo.

Sometimes Mo Ming can't help but wonder, is the production of this fireworks a process that is not much better than the outside world, or is it the finished product of the sage monster directly from the outside world?

Outside Japan, fireworks are not set off at festivals throughout the year, but here it seems to have a soft spot for this.

But I have to admit that it's pretty good-looking.

Mo Ming looked at the night sky, dazed.

......

......

"I'm a little sleepy. Kaguya frowned.

"Then hurry back. ”

It's better to say that it will disappear from my eyes quickly, Mo Ming secretly slandered in his heart.

Isn't it a little too bland? In a very small voice, Penglai Mountain Hui muttered to himself.

"Now, why don't you make a bet with a private person?"

"I will not accompany you. ”

Nothing good will come of it. No matter what you gamble on, if you lose, you will naturally be subjected to all kinds of difficulties, and even if you win, you will not give up with the other party's character.

However, both sides are people who do their own thing.

When Gunraiya decides to make a bet with the other party, refusal is already an invalid opinion.

Get up from the wooden chair.

On the other side of the village, it seems that the witch festival has just begun, and it is said that there are beautiful girls dancing kagura, and many people rush to watch it.

There are occasionally three or two pedestrians passing by on the road, and they are all in a hurry.

"Mo Mingjun, in your opinion, how does the private look like?"

Mo Ming had a bad premonition.

On this issue...... It doesn't make any sense to lie or deliberately smear the other party, and it will be too arrogant to tell the truth.

He groaned and said, "I refuse to answer this question. ”

"Yes......"

The beautiful woman named Penglai Mountain Huiye walked slowly to this side, and Mo Ming subconsciously stretched out her right hand to the yin and yang jade around her waist.

Then, the princess, who was still one meter away, was close to Mo Ming in the blink of an eye...... The eyes are facing each other.

A hand grabbed Mo Ming's right hand, making him not move at all.

In an instant, Mo Ming shook the sleeve of his left hand, and a scroll with a spatial magic array slid out of it.

At the same moment, a faint golden light fell in the air.

This is not the first time this scene has appeared, this is the alchemy prop that I have seen in the Eternal Pavilion - exorcism powder.

At the same time, Mo Ming's left hand was also caught by Kaguya.

The slight difference in strength between men and women could not do anything under the difference between Penglai people and mortals, and Kaguyahime, who had spiritual power, instantly controlled Mo Ming firmly.

Then, I closed my eyes.

Neither quickly, nor slowly, imprinted on his lips.

Mo Ming's wide-eyed, shock-stiffened body didn't know how to react.

Kaguyahime's eyes were closed, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.

Instantly, it was separated.

Kaguya's height was a head lower than Mo Ming's, but at this moment, Mo Ming sat stiffly on the bench, and the princess straightened up slightly, walked back to the bench on the other side of the pavilion just now, picked up the small fan, and stood there with a smile on her face.

The scene in the gazebo just now was bumped into by many passers-by.

But there is nothing wrong with that.

An old woman was smiling, and the old man on the side was slowly shaking his head.

The frolicking little boy and girl looked surprised at first, but ran away with red faces when they realized something.

Naturally, all this will not affect the man and woman who have no time to take care of him under the gazebo.

After a long time, Mo Ming came back to his senses and looked at Kaguya who was standing aside.

Kaguya looked back.

Instead, Mo Ming frowned and looked away.

As if a few words were sent from between the teeth: "...... It's a prank......"

"No, it's not. ”

Mo Ming fell silent again.

The brain, which is starting to run at high speed, seems to be overloaded to analyze the situation in front of it.

Cause and effect, appear in front of you and disappear, what is it......

Kaguya spoke.

"Selfishness is not human and will not be bound by your rules......"

"If you want to be so messy in the future, you have to accept the private bet," Penglai Shan Huiye wiped his lips with two fingers, "Guess, why is private here today, and why is it doing this?"

Mo Ming said coldly: "I'm not a love brain, the kind of poor person who can associate anything with love." ”

However, the current situation is not a question of relating to that aspect.

Rather, one of the most likely reasons that has to be faced.

"Ah, private is also not a love brain," Kaguyahime, who smiled incomprehensibly as always, said slowly, "So, Your Excellency Mo Ming, can you explain what the reason for this scene just now?"

......

......

Mo Ming doesn't like to get along with Penglai Mountain Hui Night.

Even if it's Yakumo Purple or the youkai of Youkai Mountain, the communication is many times stronger than the one in front of you.

Because...... They all have their own positions.

A sagile youkai with a stance can still communicate even if they are malicious. Mo Ming can figure out the other party's thinking, and the two sides maintain a rational distance from each other, and maintain the balance of communication with the sense of security that people cherish their lives.

However, this Kaguyahime, who suddenly appeared from the Eternal Pavilion, was completely different.

Without any position, a game festival toyed almost all the contestants, just to have a good time. Unable to rationally reason what the other person will do next, words and actions may be unexpected in the next second.

It's okay if you have good intentions, but it's hard to tell what the other person's attitude is.

At this moment, Mo Ming finally stopped thinking.

Because...... There are about already eyebrows.

"I don't know much about you, though. ”

"But I think ...... Will come to the festival, not quite like your personality. ”

"I'm here out of curiosity, but you're just walking around the outskirts of the village. ”

"So I guess...... I probably came to the village for some other reason. ”

It seems that Mo Ming has not finished speaking, and Kaguya is just waiting.

However, there was no further statement.

After waiting for a while, Kaguya tilted her head.

"Finished?"

“...... Well. ”

"Is it because I think too highly of you?"

"What, did you guess wrong?"

"Go ahead. ”

Mo Ming nodded: "If coming to the village was just a whim for you, and Lingxian should have followed you out of your instructions, then...... She won't be in such a hurry when you're lost. Considering the possibility that she was afraid of being punished, it was further speculated that you had come to the village at the behest of the elder of the Eternal Pavilion, Bayi Yonglin. ”

Picking up a small fan to cover the corners of her lips again, Kaguya smiled sarcastically.

It seemed like he was going to say something, but in the end he didn't open his mouth.

"Did I guess wrong?"

"That's right. ”

"So...... At this stage, can I count myself winning?"

"What did you do just now?"

"Out of revenge, and for the fun of playing tricks. ”

Kaguya held her forehead with her hand.

Immediately, he nodded again.

"Did I guess right?"

"Maybe?" said Kaguya's ambiguous answer.

"So...... As a bet ......"

"Of course, as a bet, if your guess is accurate, you will not do such reckless things in front of you. ”

"So...... Is it all hit?"

"Maybe. ”

Mo Ming frowned. What is this subtle statement?

In other words, if you guess correctly, you will fulfill the bet, and if you don't, you will not. ”

"Yes......"

"What does it mean to wait and see," looking at Mo Ming's helpless expression, Kaguya couldn't help laughing, "I know that you have some ability to see through lies, so can you still do it without the other party's direct answer?"

"I've had enough," Mo Ming got up and paced out of the pavilion, "If you're sleepy, go back, it's not too early, I'll pick up Lingmeng and go home." ”

"Good night~"

Behind him was Kaguyahime's cheerful greeting, and although he didn't face it directly, he must have had a smile.

......

......

On the way back to the Eternal Pavilion.

Penglai Mountain Kakuya frowned and walked in front.

The Lingxian behind hesitated for a long time, and finally quickened her pace and walked side by side with her own princess.

"Princess...... Not happy?"

Hearing this, Kaguya tilted her head, and then smiled: "No, I'm in a pretty good mood right now. ”

So Reizen was going to ask the doubts in his stomach.

Although she can't take the initiative to get the location of her princess, Penglai Mountain Kaguya has a way to contact the lost Reisen.

This is also the reason why Reisen is anxious - the princess did not contact herself, did she encounter something wrong?

So I asked Mo Ming, who happened to meet and was not very familiar with it, for help.

"Why did the princess suddenly disappear and order me to wait where I was after a long time?"

"Sa, why," Kaguya smiled, "I can't tell Reisen the reason~"

"Huh?!"

"Because you're different from private people, you don't hide things. ”

"Is there anything that needs to be hidden?"

"Who knows~" Kaguya smiled and quickened her pace.

"Eh--" Reizen, who was left behind, let out a dissatisfied and aggrieved cry.

Humans, presumably, are the lovely, pitiful creatures who, by finding some convincing reason, think they have figured things out, and who like to be clever and wretched.

Under the moon in the forest, Her Royal Highness the princess named Kaguya expressed such emotion.

......

......

On the other side, Mo Ming, who said that he was going to look for Reimeng, stopped after turning a block.

The annoyed and helpless expressions before the two of them parted were replaced by a serious face.

Arms folded, slowly walked to a wall.

Leaning against the wall, he began to ponder.

Things are going in a headache direction again.

I was going to ask Alice for something, but now I probably don't need it anymore.

Tomorrow...... Just tomorrow.

You have to go to the Forever Pavilion in person......

Find that pharmacist - Bayi Yonglin.

Without further ado.
