"Is it really a ship girl?"

Dafeng and Shinano looked at a 60-year-old man in front of them in surprise, they didn't expect that this trip was really right.

The old man who chatted with them was the director of the library in Kamiyama City, and he went to Gitomi to discuss the price with the distributor of the purchase.

There were only three of them on this train, and the old curator was very curious about the fact that someone was going to Shenshan City at this time.

You must know that in a month at most, Shenshan City will enter a state of heavy snow and mountain closure, although the snow scene is very beautiful, but it is not good news for girls with weak physique, not to mention that Dafeng and they are still wearing thin shirts.

After inquiring about the two people who had wanted to inquire about the news, the old man learned of their intentions, and he was happy to tell them what he knew.

"That's right.,The two ship girls you mentioned happen to work at the shrine near my house.,Two girls with a lot of personality.。

"Two?"

The two shouted in surprise after hearing the old curator's words.

Originally, the information they got was just an uncertain ship girl, but they didn't expect it to be two people.

"Hehe, it's not the two of them, the two of them still live with their two younger sisters, it should be a total of four ship girls."

The old curator said with a smile, but he didn't expect that his words would have a big impact on Dafeng and them.

The surprise came so quickly that Daho could barely control his emotions, but fortunately, Shinano sensed Daho's state and comforted her in the spiritual network.

"Don't worry Dafeng, even if it's the ship's mother, I'm not sure if it's our sister, let's wait until we see someone." ’

After hearing Shinano's words, Dafeng calmed down, and then the two asked the old gentleman in detail about some more specific news.

And after hearing the old curator's statement, the two were finally able to basically confirm that each other was their sisters.

"The four sisters came to Kinabalu City in September last year, and because they are responsible for supporting their own four people, Xiaoguo and Nicole can only work around."

"The house they rented happened to be near my house, and my wife took pity on the four sisters for their poor life, so they simply introduced Xiaoguo and Nicole to the nearby shrine as shrine maidens."

"After they joined the company, they quickly adapted to the work of the witch, and the work was very diligent, and soon won the appreciation of the local gods, if it weren't for the last time Xiaoguo lifted an accidentally fallen stone lamp with one hand in order to save people, everyone still didn't know that their four sisters were actually ship girls."

Speaking of this, the old man sighed a little, he didn't expect that the two hard-working and simple witches in the shrine were actually ship girls.

'Miko? I remembered two people......

After hearing the old man's words, Daho said to Shinano in the spiritual network.

Coincidentally, I thought of it too. ’

Shinano also glanced at Daho with a smile, and it was obvious that they thought of going together.

After arriving in Kamiyama City, the two helped the old curator get out of the car, and then followed him all the way to the shrine near the curator's house.

Looking at the quiet town in front of him composed of a large number of wooden buildings, Dafeng was a little curious.

"Isn't this a city? Why does it feel so cold? ”

After hearing Dafeng's question, the old curator replied with a smile, "Because the city has a population of less than 10 in the first place, most of the young people have gone to Edo or Heiankyo to work and study, and we old guys are the ones who stay." ”

"Only 100,000 people?"

Taiho and Shinano were both taken aback when they heard the old man's words.

They remembered the number of people the Admiral had spoken of when he spoke of the cities he lived in on Earth.

"Rongcheng? I remember the 2016 census seemed to be more than 15 million people, right? However, most of them are floating populations. ”

"Isn't it surprising? But that's the way the city is. The old curator sighed and said after seeing the expressions of the two.

"It's ...... that the aging and centralization of the population has led to fewer and fewer people in small cities, and vacant houses are almost everywhere, and everyone is moving to the big cities in droves, making cities like Heiankyo and Edo overcrowded."

Along the way, Taiho and Shinano followed the old man to the door of the library first, amid the old man's chattering complaints.

"Here, this is the only library in Kinabalu City, although it is a little old, but the materials are still very complete."

The old man looked at the library in front of him, where he had worked all his life, and proudly introduced it to the two of them.

The two of them were a little surprised when they looked at the Western-style buildings in front of them, which were different from the antique and antique style of Kamiyama City, and then Dafeng looked at the name on the signboard and read it out.

"Huanzhangkan?"

"That's right, that's the name of the library. But I won't go in for now, and I'll take you on. ”

As he spoke, the old man took the two of them and continued to walk slowly towards his neighborhood.

Walking on the deserted street, both of them felt a little uncomfortable, and the owners of the quaint shops on both sides of the road were all elderly middle-aged and elderly people, and basically they didn't see a few young people along the way.

When they followed the old man to a stone archway, the three of them stopped.

"It's here, this is a cedar white wood shrine, my house is opposite, the old man is still anxious to see his wife, so he won't accompany you, you go in directly, Xiaoguo and they should be working." After arriving at the destination, the old curator pointed to the main hall in the shrine and said to the two.

"Okay, thank you so much, stay safe along the way."

After the two solemnly thanked the old curator, the other party smiled and waved his hand and walked into a small two-story western-style building opposite.

After sending the old man away, the two also took a closer look at the shrine.

The shrine is not big, not far behind the torii is a quaint wooden hall, and the only attraction is a thick old tree at the back, about 30 meters high.

"It's ...... Cedar tree, right? How many years have you lived to grow to this size? Dafeng looked up at the cedar tree and said in amazement.

Shinano shook his head uncertainly, "I don't know, but it's at least 200 years, right?" ”

The two chatted all the way to the door of the main hall, and after entering, Dafeng shouted loudly.

"Hello! Excuse me, anyone? We have something to see! ”

In a matter of seconds, a response was heard from the next room.

"It's coming, it's coming! Please wait! ”

Then I heard the crisp "thump" sound of stepping on the wooden floor, and after a while, a brown-haired woman wearing a red and white shrine maiden costume and a traditional shrine maiden hairstyle walked to the main entrance.

"Is there anything you need to do at our shrine, if so, please ...... Taiho and Shinano?! ”

The other party smiled professionally and suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, and then pointed at the two opposite people in surprise and shouted.

Dafeng laughed happily when he saw someone coming, "Hehe, sure enough, it's you, Ise, Hinata is also there, right?" ”

At this time, a woman dressed in the same clothes as Ise and looking very similar also came out to inquire about the situation.

"What's wrong, sister? It can't be a guest, so what's the strange request, right? ”

Ise hurriedly pulled his sister over and said, "Stupid Hinata, look who is coming!" ”

Hinata, who was a little confused, turned her gaze to Shinano and Taiho at the door, and her eyes immediately widened when she saw the two.

After rubbing her eyes, Hinata asked in surprise, "Isn't this Taiho and Shinano?" How did you get here? ”

Seeing the interesting reactions of the two, Dafeng laughed happily, "Of course I'm here to pick you up, the Admiral's new town guard mansion has already been established!" ”

Then Dafeng and the two entered the side hall under the greeting of the two sisters, and she and Shinano told the two sisters who were still a little confused about the situation of the admiral and the town guard mansion in detail.

"Really...... I didn't expect the Admiral to have developed the Town Guard Mansion so strongly, it's a pity that our sisters couldn't participate in it. ”

After hearing Dafeng's explanation, Hinata, a guy who was obviously a martial arts faction vitality department, suddenly stepped over his shoulders and said in disappointment.

Shinano smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, a new round of deep-sea invasion will begin in January next year, and when the time comes, you will perform." ”

"Oh! Then it's up to me! ”

Hinata said excitedly with a fist, but this action really didn't match the witch costume on her body at all......

Apparently aware of this, her sister Ise patted her sister's head gently.

"Be solemn, we're in the shrine!"

After Hinata stuck out his tongue, Ise helplessly turned his head to look at Taiho and Shinano.

"Then we're going to leave this shrine too, and we're going to go back and tell the two children the good news."

Hearing this, Dafeng asked curiously, "By the way, who are the two children who are following the two of you?" ”

Hinata jumped up and tidied up the witch costume and said with a smile, "It's deep snow and early snow, and I don't know how their two sisters are doing now, and these two little guys are always chattering." ”

Ise interrupted Hinata's words at this time, "Anyway, let's go and ask the god for our resignation first, and we can finally return to the admiral." ”

When she stood up and was about to walk to the back hall, she suddenly paused, then turned to the two of them and said, "By the way, do you want to donate some incense money to the shrine, the gods will bless you!" ”

Hinata frowned when she heard her sister's words, and sighed helplessly, "Sister, when will your character of asking for money be changed, we are all leaving, and the money donated has nothing to do with us......"

"Ah...... yes, then forget it, Hinata let's go. ”

Ise thought about it when he heard Hinata's words, so he simply gave up the fundraising and turned around and walked to the back hall.

Taiho and Shinano were obviously a little out of tune in the face of this pair of unobtrusive sisters, and Shinano sighed and said after the two had left for a while

"I think the Admiral will have trouble in the future, and these two will definitely ask the Admiral to build a shrine when they return to the Town Guard's Mansion, and then I think they will find all kinds of reasons to ask the Admiral for donations......"

Dafeng said funny, "Okay, these things naturally have the admiral and secretary ships to worry about, let's watch the excitement on the side!" ”
