"It's really a big deal to even use an entire café as an exhibition hall."

The "Akagi Cafe", which was originally very modern art, has been removed from the tables and chairs and arranged as an exhibition-like place, which looks like a sense of disobedience.

In the acrylic exhibition boxes, there are a batch of documents about the history of Akagi Shrine, ukiyo-e and some trinkets that Sosuke Araki "accidentally" found that day.

"Thanks to Mr. Araki's blessings, the lost history of Akagi Shrine can be revived. It is precisely because of these artifacts that the popularity of the Akagi Festival is unprecedentedly high, and many shrines that have historically been associated with Akagi Shrine have said that they will send representatives to participate. ”

Following behind Sosuke Araki, Kotori Yumayuki introduced the exhibits in front of him and Kohei Higashino one by one.

"Genealogy of the Kotoriyu Clan", "Kojiki Kojiki", old sacrificial props, paintings about festival scenes......

After walking around, Sosuke Araki yawned.

"Eh, what about the three so-called 'artifacts'?"

He has never been interested in these antique documents that he can't read and can't eat.

What's more, the more Kotori Yu Zhengong told the value of these things, the greater the "loss" he calculated in his heart.

After all, the inscription of Japan's "Lost Property Law" stipulates that if the owner cannot be determined within 6 months of publication, the lost property belongs to the finder; But buried items found in the possession of others are equally divided between the discoverer and the others.

"Tomorrow, those three artifacts will be enshrined in the main hall for everyone to worship."

After going around the main hall with Kohei Higashino, Sousuke Araki was ready to leave.

"Wait...... The row that came a little past the torii gate was ......"

While he was visiting the exhibits, workers had erected tents similar to night market stalls on both sides of the stone pavement inside the torii.

"Every year during the Akagi Festival, the places on both sides of the road are rented to vendors who specialize in various festivals and temple fairs...... This year's popularity is quite high, and I think business will be good. ”

"Wow? Set up a stall? ”

Hearing this topic, Sosuke Araki and Kohei Higashino glanced at each other excitedly.

"Little Bird You, do you have any stalls to rent to us?"

Sousuke Araki asked with interest.

"Mr. Araki...... Did you have this hobby? If you can see it, just use it......"

Kotori Yumako looked at Sosuke Araki in surprise.

As far as she knows, in addition to being a powerful and indifferent to fame and fortune, Mr. Araki has mixed with the extreme road and the rampant clan, studied in college, worked part-time as a convenience store clerk, and a delivery clerk, and even set up a stall?

"Sorry...... Hobbies, you say? ”

Sousuke Araki clasped his hands in front of his chest and chuckled with a gloomy face: "We are professionals!" When I was in Yokohama, we would go to the stalls on weekends to make extra money, and we were collectively called the night market duo...... How's that, Kohei, are you still a housekeeper? ”

Sosuke Araki looked at Kohei Higashino defiantly.

"Hey, unlike you decadent, my hand speed hasn't dropped for a day...... For just one day, I can play with you. ”

Higashino Yukihei had a cruel chuckle on his face.

Just as the two of them looked at each other with affection and smiled, several men in suits with unkind faces strode into the torii.

Yutaro Kotori stepped forward to talk to them for a few words, and there was a slightly loud argument over there.

"The conditions offered by our consortium are already very sincere, why should the little bird tour priest refuse? You know, if you do business on this street, even if it's a shrine, you can't do it without paying attention to human morality......"

"Several, that thing is worn, but it's a family heirloom. It's not that I don't know how to lift, but I really can't sell it. ”

Even in the face of several men with bad attitudes, Yutaro Kotori still patiently explained to them with a warm smile.

"What's the situation, those believers who are very devout at first glance, do they want to visit in advance?"

Sosuke Araki looked over there curiously.

"Those people are said to be from the National Quintessence Society, I don't know where to get the news, I came to my father again and again, saying that I wanted to pay a lot of money to buy the demon knife Qiyue, and my father naturally wouldn't agree... However, most of the shops in Kagurazaka are the property of the National Quintessence Association, and it is not easy to turn against them. ”

"Will the quintessence of the country, I heard that there is an unclear relationship with the group of three."

Listening to the quarrel of several people, Higashino Kohei frowned slightly.

The National Quintessence Association is a long-established yakuza organization established in the early 90s in Tokyo, and because it can't keep up with the development of the times, it has been declining for many years, and now it is just a third-rate violent group.

"I've heard that these antiques at Akagi Shrine were lost in the fire...... It's been dry lately, so be careful about fire prevention. ”

Seeing that Yutaro Kotori was smiling but never entered, one of the middle-aged men said in a weird manner.

"Your Excellency has something to say, but it is suspected of being a threat and violates the provisions of the Organized Crime Group Countermeasures Act."

Yutaro Kotori still coped with the same face.

When these people came a few days ago, he already felt that the other party was not well-intentioned, so he was naturally unwilling to cooperate.

"You guy, we've been here for a few days, so let's talk about it...... Shameless ......"

Another man pulled out his phone with a blank face.

Yutaro Kotori is right, since the introduction of the "Organized Crime Countermeasures Act", their lives have become more and more difficult.

Last week, some members even politely asked "can it be cheaper" when buying groceries, but they were taken away by the police on the charge of threats.

After a while, more than a dozen fierce-looking, shirtless, tattooed, and almost unwritten "brother" and "Wakazhong" on their faces walked to the outside of the Akagi Shrine Gate, squatting or standing around the torii.

Several invited guests who were about to enter the torii gate, as well as passers-by who came to the shrine to pray for blessings, were frightened by the encounter and quickly left.

Even the workers who were decorating the site hid.

"Funamura-san, you're ...... like this"

Seeing that the torii gate of the shrine was blocked, even though he was as gentle as a little bird Yutaro, his face couldn't help but turn cold.

"Little bird Yousang, my little brothers, but they are all people who want to be gods, you can't turn others away, right...... In addition, this shopping street is a public place and everyone can come here. In order to show the sincerity of the national quintessence of this festival, wouldn't it be nice to let them join in the excitement here for the past two days and add some popularity to your Akagi Festival? ”

The middle-aged man known as "Funamura-san" said in a strange manner.

"These guys are too ...... to deceive people"

Standing on the top of the stone steps and seeing this scene, the little bird Yu Zhengong was grim and ready to go down and reason with them.

But...... Sosuke Araki didn't know when this guy had appeared under the torii.

"Little Bird Yousang, enter the first stall at the door, can you arrange it for me?"

He asked as if no one was standing next to him, pointing to the first booth behind the torii.

"Huh? No problem...... But for now, ...... for now."

Yutaro Kotori was stunned by his sudden question.

"Since there is no problem...... Kohei, hurry up and come over to clean up the garbage and set up the stalls. ”

Sousuke Araki grabbed a knot from under the stall and tied it to his head like an uncle selling yakisoba at a night market.

Then he waved his hand in disgust at the more than ten men in front of the torii gate with a vicious expression: "Hey, you stinky boys, block the lighting of my uncle's stall, hurry up and go farther away......"
