Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

The accident happened last time because I was too tired from the performance and we were chatting late at night.

But this time it's different.

Tachibana Yui turned around and lay on her side facing Haruhiko.

With her abilities, this darkness was nothing to her, so she could clearly see his face.

She initially started paying attention to Haruhiko because of Yuya Utsunomiya.

Now that we've spent more time together, I've discovered quite a few of his unique qualities.

For example, his amazing talent, or his despicable attitude.

If it were anyone else, Tachibana Yui would have already sunk him into Tokyo Bay to feed the fish.

While she was lost in thought, she suddenly felt a pair of hands embrace her.

It's Haruhiko.

Tachibana Yui's body stiffened instantly.

She glanced at it subconsciously.

Haruhiko didn't wake up; it must have been an unconscious action.

She hesitated for a few seconds, but ultimately did not push him away.

When I came to my senses, I realized I was completely in his arms.

A warm atmosphere emanated from all around.

Tachibana Yui's face immediately turned red with embarrassment.

The next moment, her eyes widened.

Haruhiko lowered his head.

He vaguely felt his face pressed against soft skin.

Is it Yukihime?

His throat bobbed instinctively.

Tachibana Yui's body trembled as if she had been electrocuted.

Her eyes were filled with tears, and just as she was about to push Haruhiko away, she suddenly let out a muffled groan and lost her strength.

Tachibana Yui closed her eyes, a blush spreading across her cheeks, down to her neck and ears.

It made her seem like a steampunk princess.

early morning.

Haruhiko woke up.

A moment later, his pupils contracted sharply.

Tachibana Yui is no longer here.

Haruhiko was at a loss as to how to face Tachibana Yui.

After a moment of silence, he got up and changed into his school uniform.

Today is Tuesday, I have to go to school.

After washing up, he met Tsuchimikado Mari in the living room.

She was wearing a women's suit and a pencil skirt, sitting at the dining table with her legs crossed, her black stockings gleaming under the light.

Those beautiful eyes looked at him with curiosity and inquiry.

"Where is Aunt Mashiro?"

Haruhiko noticed her gaze and asked somewhat awkwardly.

"She said she had something to take care of early this morning and has already left."

Tsuchimikado Mari blinked and asked softly, "What happened last night?"

"Nothing at all."

Haruhiko quickly shook his head and said.

"Sit down and eat."

Tsuchimikado Mari didn't press the matter further and said, "I'll take you to school later."

Chapter 95. The Serpent Spirit

Tokyo in October is no longer so hot.

A cool autumn breeze swept through the cherry blossom trees on both sides, the air was fresh and it was easy to breathe.

The only pity is that there's not much of the view under the skirt.

There are no classes for the theology major this morning.

But Haruhiko still arrived at school on time.

Because he also studied archaeology.

Following the signs, Haruhiko arrived at the classroom without incident.

There are already quite a few students inside.

However, he did not cause any sensation.

Because no one knew him.

Only the female students glanced at him a couple of times.

He's so handsome it's impossible not to be amazed.

Haruhiko found an empty seat and sat down.

Archaeology is an elective major.

There aren't many courses.

Three classes a week is enough.

Most of those interested in taking archaeology share the same idea as Haruhiko.

Joined the Edo Archaeological Bureau.

It is worth mentioning that the Edo Archaeological Bureau was not only responsible for the Takamagahara ruins.

If new ruins are discovered at the Imperial Palace, they will be explored.

Therefore, many ordinary psychics regard it as a good path to advancement.

The first lesson was called "Basic Knowledge of Relics".

Ruins usually refer to relics from the Age of Gods, that is, treasures left behind thousands of years ago.

Because it involves deities, it is extremely valuable.

In addition, there are modern relics.

The quality of these relics varies greatly, and you may even encounter relics that are actually traps.

The losses were heavy, and nothing was gained.

After class, Haruhiko left the classroom.

He was stopped at the entrance of the teaching building.

"Haruhiko, is that right?"

A young man who looked to be in his thirties asked with a smile.

"I'm."

Haruhiko glanced at him, confirming it was their first meeting, and asked, "Is there something you need?"

"I am the head of the Edo Archaeological Bureau at the University of Tokyo, and my name is Yasuhiro Ishikawa."

Yasuhiro Ishikawa introduced himself.

Haruhiko's eyes lit up.

His outstanding performance at the Battle of Fei River and his choice to study archaeology clearly demonstrate his purpose.

It's perfectly reasonable for the Edo Archaeological Bureau to approach them.

"We have investigated your background."

Yasuhiro Ishikawa asked in a friendly manner, "You come from the Inari Shrine and are a disciple of Chiyo-senpai, so you are qualified to join the Edo Archaeological Bureau. I wonder if you have any thoughts about it?"

"I am very honored."

Haruhiko immediately answered with a smile.

"Welcome to the Edo Archaeological Bureau as a probationary staff member."
