"Oops? Am I dazzled? Or is it because my eyes are glazed? It's all the same, but I have to repeat it, am my eyes wrong? I don't think so, your silver-gray head, the corners of your eyes, your dark brown pupils, and the look on your face that wants to beat me up at the moment will make you undoubtedly sure who you are. ”

"This guest really likes to joke, what is it? New Year's joke? New Year's ITZ? New Year's joke (verbosity)? You've mistaken someone, so please don't talk to the shrine, that's the exit. ”

"That exit is a well, and if you fall down, you'll die, so don't tell the joke in English, German, or Japanese all at once, it's not a joke, so why are you in this shrine? Isn't there a job? Miss Battlefield Hara. ”

"I'm sorry, I killed you on the battlefield."

"That's not a name anymore!"

"I'm sorry, but I'm the battlefield that left you to die."

"Don't talk about this during the New Year, it's just a short sentence, a very scary orange."

"Please, will you die?"

"It's not a matter of honorifics.,Really.,I just want to know the reason.,But since Iye-san, if you don't want to say it, I don't plan to ask.,This should be a part-time job.。

In addition to history and Shinto, shrine maidens have been used in many creative works in modern times, but there are many ambiguities. However, the only constant is that shrine maidens are often symbols of traditional beauty.

Yamato Nadeshiko, pure and innocent, innocent, with long black hair, 'standing like a peony, sitting like a peony, walking like a lily', but through the conversation just now, Sayou thinks that the witch in front of him belongs to a more special category.

On the other side, hearing Sayou's question, the girl who stood inside the window and picked up the prayer charm in her hand. Battlefield Hara fell silent, as if thinking about how to explain it.

Now she is wearing a shrine maiden costume - a white kimono undergarment, which is a muscle loop; There is also Shiro, which is a white kimono coat; At the same time, underneath is a scarlet hakama dressed in a red kimono skirt, which is the standard attire of a working witch. I guess I'm still wearing white bags and red straw sandals at the moment.

Since Iya's head is very long, the back head is wrapped in white sandalwood paper and tied with twine.

From this point of view, if you don't count the conversation just now, Iya looks like an orthodox shrine maiden.

Immediately after, Iya in the window put down the prayer charm. Then he picked up the ema above.

"It's true that I refused to join the shrine because I had to work here, after all, they are very short of manpower now, and my home is close, so I came to help."

"Really? Your job is to clean up the shrine and the shrine, repair the ema (write your wishes on the ema when you pray, and hang it in the special place where the ema is hung in the shrine), and sell runes, so you may have to work hard. ”

"Nope. It's not hard, it's much worse than the predecessors. ”

"Seniors?"

"She would go to the shrine at the top of the mountain to dance the kagura dance, which was much harder than those of us who were working part-time, so I don't think I had any reason to say that I worked hard."

At this point, it is as strict as ever.

Sayu looked behind him. I saw a few shrine maidens wearing Chihaya with crane pine patterns and flower hairpins and golden crowns on their heads walking towards the top of the mountain with Kagura bells.

Kagura Bell has a total of 12 bells, with 3 and 4 in the upper, middle, and lower layers. 5 pcs. There are 5 colors of straps (green, yellow, red) on the back of the handle. White, blue) is an indispensable prop when dancing kagura dance.

"In addition to kagura dance, the seniors also had to help manage social affairs, and most of the shrine maidens in this costume were seen at the Japanese-style wedding ceremony, which was also the job of the seniors."

"Senior...... So how long does this work last? ”

"After the winter festival is over, it's just a way up the mountain, and when you reach the top of the mountain, you can go down another way, which is the main venue for the winter festival hosted by the shrine, so you can see a lot of interesting things."

"Thanks for the reminder, I don't know anything about that."

"Since it's the first time I've participated, it's good to take my time, after all, Sasuke-sensei is a very serious person in this kind of ordinary aspect. When you visit the shrine, you should go to the torii gate first, and according to etiquette, you should bow a little before entering the torii gate. In addition, the road in the center of the shrine is a passage for the gods to enter and exit, and worshippers avoid the middle of the road and walk to the side to express their piety. ”

"I know that."

"You should also wash your hands and rinse your mouth to clean yourself with your hands, and the rules of worship are 'two salutes, two clappings, and one salute', and the incense money to be put into the money box is about 500,000 yen."

"I know this...... It's weird, the last one is obviously weird. ”

Are you a money-robbing witch sent by the gods?

When the complaint ended, Sayu's gaze fell on the prayer charm and Ema in front of him.

Iya stretched out his hand and took out an ema and handed it to Sayu-sensei.

"Do you want to write some wishes? Mr. Sayu. ”

"No, no, I'm going to say it to the gods myself."

Doesn't it mean that the wish will not work if it is spoken? Then it may not work to write it.,For this reason, Sayou is a little stubborn and refuses the Ema that Iya gave him.。

"But I didn't expect Sayou-sensei to wear a kimono for the New Year's visit, but what about the others?"

"Everyone had a little problem, and then they converged, and by the way, this is my own kimono."

"It's amazing, it's a lot of hard work."

"What?"

"It's amazing, it's amazing."

"That's not the answer just now."

Instead of dwelling on the issue, Sayu reached out and picked up two prayer charms.

This prayer charm is a little different from the rune, and it is estimated that the rune is sold by other shrine maidens.

Taking out his wallet, Sasuke picked out two prayer charms from it.

Even though I knew that it would not fulfill people's wishes, I bought it anyway.

Whoever you are, you are a creature that needs delusions, just like you need dreams and expectations, even if they are unrealistic, they still have a certain meaning.

It could be anticipation, or it could be happiness.

"It's 400 yen in total."

"Okay."

After handing over the money, Sayu held one of the prayer charms in his hand and threw the other one to Iya.

"Huh?"

With a puzzled voice, Yi Ye seemed to be a little incomprehensible to Sayou's behavior.

However, Sayu turned around and walked towards the top of the mountain, waving his hand and telling Yiya why he did so.

"Whether you have a wish or don't have a wish, it's always reassuring to have something in your hand, but this year's winter is a little cold, Yiye-san."

The whole person walked to the top of the stairs full of lantern lights, and looked at the top of the road, where the shrine was kept, and Sayu exhaled.

Tonight's night seems to be a little calm. (To be continued!)
