Chapter 47: It's getting dark

"Ahem, conspiracy theories and gossip are not our focus," Miss Aozaki quickly interrupted, "The point is that the strength of the chaebol leader is not necessarily able to ignore the most ordinary social rules, so I think hypocrisy is one of the indispensable qualities of people." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"I think I've been convinced by you." It's really a pessimistic view, but I don't know how to refute it, which more or less shows that Miss Aosaki's understanding after work is correct, but fortunately this is Gensokyo, I thought so, and slightly weakened my interest in the outside world.

"Still, let's not talk about it, this topic is a bit heavy and destroys the atmosphere." Miss Editor said.

"Well, my amazement at Miss Patchy's depth hasn't passed," I turned my face to Miss Witch, "what the hell doesn't Miss Genius Magician know?" ”

She glanced at me contemptuously, "Hakurei shrine maiden? Or a messenger of the gods? ”

As the sun approached set, cheerful footsteps and shouts came from outside the door: "Alice Sauce, I'll be back!" Then he said, "I'm back, too!" ”

The first greeting came from Orange Meow, who had not seen anyone all day, and the more shrill latter one was, of course, from Akinmyomaru, who had returned from visiting his imprisoned friend at Meirenji Temple.

"Meow! Maru-chan Maru-chan has guests! ”

"Oh! I saw La Orange Sauce, this kind of dress is not like Gensokyo residents, is it an outsider! I haven't seen anyone from the outside world yet! ”

When the residents of the shrine returned from going out, they found the new guests of the shrine at a glance and couldn't help but scream.

"Don't make a fuss, this is Miss Aosaki, the first lost visitor from the outside world in two months, and an important guest of the shrine, don't be rude." I instructed.

"But Lord Lan told me not to talk to outsiders," Orange Meow said without giving any face, and then wagged her two tails at Miss Outsider, whose eyes were straight, to say hello, and dragged on the needle pill who had become a good relationship with her for some reason, "There is a guest Maru-chan, let's go to the backyard to read your comics, Lord Lan won't let me read the comics." ”

Anyway, where did Arimakimaru hide the borrowed manga?

Miss Arimamaru had been an aristocratic and not-so-reckless person, and she greeted Miss Outsider, who still had straight eyes, before being dragged to the backyard by the lively Orange Meow.

"Why did they suddenly change so much? Do you play together all afternoon? Orange Meow also went to Meiren Temple? The person who asked me about this was Patsy, but I didn't expect an answer from her, "Gensokyo's circle is getting smaller and smaller." ”

"Too small? How about finding a few more magicians? ”

"A small circle doesn't mean that there are fewer people, I mean that any two people in Gensokyo have more and more opportunities to meet and make friends, so it seems that the circle is getting smaller and smaller."

Miss Patchy was noncommittal to my words.

Then Miss Aozaki came back to her senses from her stupor: "What did I just see! ”

"Huh? The two of them?,It's all white diners who live at the shrine.,The big one with a red dress with two black cat tails Lori is orange.,The small kimono girl is the king of Lilliputia.,Miss Ajimaru.,But it's really a child.,Miss Aosaki don't blame them for being rude.。 ”

"I can still tell if they are children or not...... But, if I'm not mistaken, is it a doll in small size? I thought Lilliputian or something was just a fairy tale, did the other girl in a red dress have cat ears and a cat tail on her head? It looks so realistic! ”

"That's the so-called youkai, cat demons, very common, of course in Gensokyo. I don't know where I can see a small size like Acumaru except for most goblins, so I guess it's rare in the outside world. ”

"Is this 'rare'......" Miss Aosaki was not very satisfied with my words, "If you hadn't come to this magical shrine, who would have known that the cat demon villain or something would have been seen and touched!" ”

"You don't seem to have seen the more common goblins yet, Miss Sakiya didn't let the fairy maid show up to entertain guests, did she? But it's not a good thing to meet goblins in the wild. ”

"There's a lot of stuff to overwhelm today, so I'd better keep the confusion going."

……

Listening to the girls in the backyard talk about the manga plot, one of the most important members of the shrine finally rushed back before the sun completely set, and the ghost king in the shrine maiden costume went home with a lot of vegetables and fruits as usual, but this time there were two more fish without meat.

"Ah, there are guests!" She looked at it with wide eyes open for a while, "And Miss Witch, I just brought back too many dishes today." ”

I turned to her and said, "This is Miss Maruko Aosaki, and I think I'm the first lost client since I took office." Turning his face again, "This is the second shrine maiden of Hakurei Shrine, Ibuki Suika." ”

"It turned out to be an outsider, I haven't seen Mile for a long time, Miss Aosaki wasn't frightened."

"Ah, no, no, the second witch, uh......"

"The two horns on your head scare people." I say.

Suika rolled her eyes, not knowing what she was paying attention to, "Hey, it's good that someone from the outside world appears, which shows that Alice's witch work is on the right track, and there is no need to keep doing her job." ”

"What the hell is Zhengkarma!"

"Sit down, I'll make dinner." She jumped to the kitchen.

Seeing Cuika leaving, I said to Miss Aosaki: "Don't look at her looking like Lori, she is younger than the cat demon Lori just now, in fact, people don't know how old they are." ”

"Ahem, those two horns on the head look like they belong to the legendary ghosts, right?" The editor's interest lies elsewhere.

"yes, you know?"

"The villain who appears most often in Japanese stories."

"Oh, that's right." I reacted, and then warned her, "Miss Suika, who is a part-time shrine maiden, is very cute, so don't treat people like ordinary villains." ”

"Even if I tell me it's a villain, I can't connect people with villains......"

"When necessary, not only the ghost king, anyone can become a villain." Miss Witch interjected in an eerie voice again, and I think she's been feeling a little more lately.

"I think it's still a little necessary to ask formally," I suddenly realized that it was a bit unkind to hide the existence of Tofu's mother-in-law from Miss Aosaki, although it had nothing to do with her but with her grandfather, but if the object of concealment was an outsider who was not interested in Gensokyo, my approach could not be regarded as concealment, but if she was interested in settling in Gensokyo - although I had learned from the previous exchange that she was unlikely to choose to abandon the outside world - it was just a waste of expression to conceal these almost well-known secrets of outsiders, If you confess to her, it may also have the effect of getting her to cooperate with the stability maintenance work of the Hakurei shrine maiden, "Does Miss Aogasaki have the idea of settling in Gensokyo?" Don't be in a hurry to make up your mind, I can take you to understand the world first. ”
