Chapter 1192
"Um, can I ask, what are you doing?"
Sanae asked doubtfully after bowing slightly.
"Miko costume...are you the miko of this shrine?"
The pretty girl's eyes lit up after looking at Sanae's outfit.
But soon, she noticed something strange.
"Why is it a witch costume with exposed armpits? Does the style Su Mo mentioned really exist?!"
It can be seen that her expression is a little surprised.
"There are various reasons for this style."
Sanae said with an embarrassed look.
Kanako-sama said that this change would attract believers, but in the end it was found that no one came after the change, so it was completely useless!
But right now, that's not important.
"I am Sanae Tofudani, the shrine maiden who inherited Moriya Shrine. Could you please tell me what you are doing?"
Sanae asked the key question.
The girl in front of him immediately responded.
"My name is Usami Renko, and I am the person in charge of this scientific research exploration. Regarding the notice of this exploration, your religious management office should have informed you, right?" Cun.
1166 Worship, Ms. Renko’s boyfriend
Hearing Usami Renko's words.
Sanae tilted her head in confusion.
"Religious Management Office? Wait!"
It was as if he remembered some dusty memory.
Sanae reached out from her chest and took out an emerald green mobile phone with a frog pendant hanging on it.
After a lot of fussing, she finally found a text message from the management office, which indeed mentioned this matter.
"So that's it... Haha... I knew why so many people suddenly came to worship."
After understanding that the other party was here to perform a survey mission, not to pay homage.
Sanae's whole figure became much paler, and she looked a little resigned to herself.
"Hey, doesn't your management office usually contact you?"
Looking at Dongfeng Gu Sanae's completely unexpected expression, Renzi asked curiously.
Logically speaking, there should be a considerable degree of contact between the Religious Management Office and the shrine, right?
After all, whether it is holding a festival or paying taxes and refunds, the management office must help with the activities.
Normal shrines will not ignore the relationship with the management office, even Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine. Why does this girl seem to have never heard of this name?
"Well... maybe it's because our place is relatively quiet, so we have less contact with them."
Hearing this topic, the corners of Sanae's mouth twitched slightly, somewhat forcing a smile.
"……Um?"
Hearing this, Lianzi looked around.
Moriya Shrine is not big, but it is clean and tidy, which is better than other shrines.
Generally speaking, this is a treatment only available at shrines with good incense.
After all, cleaning the shrine requires hiring people.
But it seems that Sanae-san is the only one at Moriya Shrine. If she cleans this shrine, it is enough to explain the shrine's customer flow.
——Almost zero.
Since there is no money, there is no need for management, and there is no need to even hold a festival.
"I see."
Lianzi nodded and said nothing more.
The eyes looking at Sanae couldn't help but feel a little more pity.
Such a pious and diligent miko must have loved this shrine very much.
But there was not a single visitor.
She must be very disappointed usually!
Thinking about this, Renko suddenly understood why Miss Sanae was so excited at first and then so disappointed.
Are they treating them as worshipers, so they are having a joyful time in vain?
Noticing Renko's pity look, Sanae couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
As a shrine maiden, how could she show such weakness in front of guests!
Isn’t it because no one comes to worship?
Isn’t this how it’s been the past few years?
After forcibly cheering up, she thought for a moment, and after noticing that the staff were very careful in their movements and had no intention of destroying the items in the shrine, she spoke.
"As long as you don't damage the items inside the shrine, especially the statues of the shrine, please feel free to do what you want!"
She couldn't resist the tasks imposed by her superiors anyway.
"Be more tolerant Miss Sanae."
Lianzi immediately thanked him.
After all, Moriya Shrine is her territory, and it is best if Sanae allows it.
"Then please help yourself. If you want to drink water, there is a well over there."
After Sanae confessed, she bowed slightly and prepared to leave.
"Wait, Miss Sanae!"
Renko suddenly stopped Sanae who was about to leave.
"What's wrong? Do you need any help?"
Sanae asked gently.
When her own gods are not involved, Sanae's personality is quite gentle.
"No, no."
Lianzi shook his head, then smiled.
"I just think that since it is rare to come to a shrine, you should come and pay homage. Otherwise, you will be too ignorant and understanding."
Seeing how Sanae cooperated with their work, Renzi felt that she needed to repay the other person.
Judging from the age of the other party, she is probably only a female high school student.
How could she live without visitors?
"Huh? Really?!"
Upon hearing this, Sanae immediately showed a surprised expression.
But immediately, she guessed Lianzi's thoughts, and after hesitating and struggling for a while, she still chose to wave her hand.
"Miss Renko, don't do this. As long as it doesn't affect the shrine, there's no need to not cooperate with the detection. You don't have to make a special visit!"
Although I really want to gain believers.
But it's not good to repay a favor.
Sanae doesn't want to do this.
Hearing this, Renko waved her hand.
"It's not a special visit. It's better to say that worshiping the gods is part of our mission, so Miss Sanae doesn't have to care."
Hearing this, Sanae was a little curious about what kind of mission required worshiping the gods.
Is this really not an excuse made up by Miss Renko?
However, since Renko has said this, she will naturally not continue to be hypocritical.0 .....
"Then I'll go prepare it."
Putting aside the doubts in her heart for the time being, Sanae immediately trotted to the hand-water house to fill it with water.
Because no one has been worshiping, it's dry there.
Since someone came to worship, it is natural to refill it with fresh water.
After the tap was turned on, the spring water quickly filled the hand-washing house, forming a small water channel for guests to wash their hands.
At this time, the white uniform staff had also set up the equipment.
At Renko's call, they lined up to come to the hand-washing house to wash themselves.
"Come to think of it, I haven't been to the shrine for a long time!"
"I wonder if the gods here can make my paper wife come true!"
"Give up, don't dream!"
"It would be great if the instrument responded, but that's impossible. I didn't find any problems when I went to other shrines before."
"So why do you suddenly let us do this strange project!"
"Shouldn't this kind of investigation be studied by folk experts?"
The staff complained in a low voice while queuing to wash their hands.
Sanae didn't quite understand what they said, but she probably heard that these people seemed to be engaged in scientific research activities.
What are scientists doing at the shrine?
Such doubts lasted for a few seconds.
Then they were interrupted by the sound of "ding ding dong dong".
This was the sound of Miss Renko entering the main hall to worship.
Sanae immediately ran over excitedly.
Sanae didn't care about the money put into the 3.1 tournament money box.
Unlike Reimu, she has low material desires. The only thing she wants is the faith that God needs.
Looking at the large group of people queuing up to worship in front of her.
Sanae smiled very happily.
This is an unprecedented scene.
"Then respond to their prayers a little!"
Happy Sanae closed her eyes.
As a living god, she can use the power of the shrine gods Suwako Shiya and Kanako Yasaka at the same time.
Naturally, she can also satisfy human wishes to a certain extent.
Although it can't satisfy all their wishes.
However, it is still possible to grant a little miracle.
"Wow! Miss Renko's wish is to meet her boyfriend soon... I'm so envious!"
After sensing the wishes of the crowd, Sanae generously blessed Renko.
1167 Low-quality human believers
It didn't take long to go through the whole worship process.
