It was not far from the time when the clock struck midnight, and the flower pavilion finally finished the day's work. According to local tradition, people gather at a nearby shrine to pray for the new year. Shiki They are also interested in the local customs, so they are ready to go together.

Standing in front of the quiet entrance, Shiki waited for everyone to arrive, and the others had some preparations to do before leaving.

After a long time had passed in the calculation of the four seasons, he finally waited for everyone.

The first to greet you is the staff of this flower pavilion, who are now different from usual, they are all carefully dressed, and their kimonos are specially prepared for the festival rather than everyday clothes.

Immediately after the clerk, Nepu ran briskly, obviously wearing a kimono that did not affect her vitality in the slightest.

"How?"

Nepu, dressed in a purple kimono, spun around in front of Shiki a few times.

"It's a good fit. Nepu looks a lot more mature. ”

"Oh!"

Seemingly satisfied with the evaluation of the four seasons, Nepu looked very happy.

"But that's the main thing."

Huang Quan, Kagura, Mikoto, and Anna walked to Shiki's side one after another, and they also changed into kimonos, looking radiant.

"It took a long time."

"It's a man's duty to wait for a woman, and you have no right to complain."

Huang Quan shook his finger at the four seasons.

"What a dull man. Now keep your eyes open! ”

Mai Koto leaned to the side, and the others moved out of the way.

I saw several figures behind everyone who changed into local costumes to show their gorgeous figures, Hatsuzakura, Natsuo, Akika, and Miyuki, all of them were dressed up and dressed in gorgeous kimonos.

Although I am used to the dress of the first cherry blossom kimono, today this kimono with red as the main color and cherry blossom petal pattern is very commensurate with her. Like the petals of a flower fluttering in the flames, it has an eye-catching brilliance.

Next to her, Natsuo was dressed in a kimono filled with green bamboo and moon-shaped patterns. makes her feel less arrogant and more fresh.

Akika, who is one step behind, is dressed in a black kimono, which contrasts sharply with the pattern of maple leaves on it. This gave her a touch of softness to her otherwise serious feeling.

And Miyuki, who is next to Akika, is wearing a white kimono that is the opposite of Akika's color, with a water-colored snowflake pattern painted on it. When Miyuki stood there quietly, she looked like a fairy in the snow.

Their current outfits were specially prepared for today's event, and these preparations were not in vain at all, just standing here seemed to add a lot of color to this empty hallway.

Surrounded by a group of girls, the situation at this time can undoubtedly be described as if you are in Elysium.

"The seasons are mesmerized?"

Hatsuzakura leaned over to Shiki, her eyes wide and shining.

"Didn't pour."

The seasons tried to say something, but no matter how they described, they couldn't find a better word.

"Everybody's dressed up beautifully."

"What a rotten answer."

"Well, maybe it's an improvement for the four seasons, Miyuki."

Qiuhua is right. If you talk about it, it will make people feel that it is in vain. ”

Listening to everyone's words and me, Shiki couldn't figure out whether his words satisfied everyone.

Hatsuzakura looked left and right and didn't join the conversation, and Shiki's answer didn't satisfy her.

"I must be fascinated by Hatsuzakura this time!"

I saw Hatsuzakura finish speaking vigorously, and then she transformed. The flames washed over Hatsu Sakura's body, making her body visibly grow, her hands and feet became more slender, and her body also showed obvious undulations.

"Wow Wow Wow !!"

Hatsu Sakura's change caused everyone to exclaim, but not due to the change in her appearance, but for another reason.

Because of the growth of the body, the kimono that tightly wrapped the body no longer fits.,The hem of the insufficient length makes the white calves exposed.,The back buttocks become tight and you can see obvious curves.,What's worse is the top.,Two snow-white balls are exposed under the placket that was torn open by Hatsuzakura due to squeezing.。 It's obviously a serious kimono Zhensleeve.,But it was worn by the first cherry blossom with an Oiran wind.。

"Have you ever been fascinated by the charm of people's homes, four~~~ season~~~"

Ignoring everyone, Hatsuzakura didn't care about it, but deliberately puffed up her chest, and then leaned into Shiji's ear and made a coquettish sound.

“……”

The riot caused by the first cherry blossoms delayed their efforts a lot, and it took quite a while for everyone to finally set off for the shrine in the town after finally cleaning up.

By the time they arrived at the shrine, it was almost midnight. You can see a lot of villagers, who are exchanging New Year's wishes.

The group lined up in the line to pay homage and waited for their turn.

"Actually, I was thinking, which god should I pray to?"

Shiki raised the question in his mind.

Visiting the shrine is to receive the blessing of the gods, and to entrust the yearning for the new year. So for ordinary people, who are gods, which way of gods should they worship, this is really a question.

The four seasons' questions left the clerks on the side speechless, and according to their status, the level of the gods they serve is not as high as that of the four seasons.

"How about worshipping the god of the system?"

Miyuki thought about it and made a suggestion, the direct boss of the interferer was indeed the highest rank.

"But the system is just a program without self-awareness, and even if we ask for it, there can be no blessing, and there is no point at all."

The four seasons make judgments full of utilitarianism. Maybe the creator of the system and the entire relay world is, but that existence has never revealed its own information to the outside world.

"Bai Chao, the head of the group, maybe there will be gains, and not necessarily."

When he said this, Xia Xu's eyes didn't look at everyone, and he felt that it was definitely a cheating choice.

"Visiting a shrine isn't like that."

Qiu Hua held her face a little troubledly.

"The most important thing to visit the shrine is the heart, and to make a wish that you want to achieve in the new year is also to push yourself."

"Am I worshipping myself?"

Nep seemed to realize something.

"You still have to rely on yourself, but you have to pretend to be a god? This is also the weakness of human nature. ”

The emotion of the four seasons made the tourists passing by feel embarrassed.

Finally, it was their turn, and in the spirit of experiencing the atmosphere, they threw some local currency into the shrine and said their wishes or goals for the new year.

"I hope that the new year will be more in love with the four seasons!"

While the others were quite perfunctory, Hatsuzakura was very serious, listening to her muttering several times before asking the gods again.

"Please, Jade!"

“？！”

After hearing the people of Hatsuzakura's request, Shiki couldn't help but stop, and always felt that it was something that he couldn't hear.

"The concubine received it."

Suddenly, a light flashed in front of the shrine where it was enshrined, and then a familiar figure ran out. The whole body exuded divine brilliance and a divine aura that surpassed all living beings, and even the masses who did not know the truth felt the majesty of the gods, and they all knelt down with their hands folded.

"Jade!"

"Miss Jade."

It's not impossible that Miss Yu will be called out by Hatsu Sakura. It's just that it's going to be hard work for the local gods and shrine staff.

"Hmm, it's so good~~~"

Miss Yu touched Hatsu Sakura's head, without the slightest self-consciousness of causing chaos. I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that Miss Yu looks a little more lively this time than last time.

"Come, this is Hatsuzakura's New Year's money."

As she spoke, Miss Yu took out a red envelope from her chest.

"What is this?"

"It's nothing, it's just a few million bonus points."

Hearing Shiji's question, Miss Yu responded lightly.

"Little kids, don't take so much money."

After saying that, the four seasons took the red envelope from Hatsuzakura's hand.

So about Hatsuzakura's education, Shiki and Miss Yu started a debate again.

"Woo, it's completely like a worried parent."

Miyuki, who tried to stay away as much as possible, couldn't help but complain.

"Actually, I also prepared New Year's money."

Suddenly, Qiuhua also took out a red envelope from his sleeve.

"Come on, this is Miyuki's."

"Huh? I'm not a kid anymore. ”

Seeing the red envelope handed over by her mother, Miyuki blushed a little.

"Isn't it good?"

Xia Xu, who had just finished speaking cool words on the side, didn't expect Qiuhua to hand over another red envelope to her.

"Hmm~~~"

"Does Nepu have it too? All right! ”

Qiuhua handed over the red envelopes to everyone, including the four seasons and the first cherry blossoms, and Qiuhua prepared all the New Year's money.

Holding the red envelope, everyone had their own thoughts, and at this moment, the clock finally rang at zero o'clock, announcing the arrival of the new year. The sound of mutual blessings echoed all around, and finally merged into a single sentence.

"Happy New Year!"
