I cultivate a deity in Tokyo

"That's why someone has to perform the exorcism. This is something that the shrine maidens of our Kanda Shrine, no, it's something that all Shinto people should do!" Hanekawa Yaya said with a matter-of-fact expression.

"Pretending, everyone knows what you're really thinking." Yu Chuanlan poked her forehead in annoyance.

"Filming ghost-hunting videos is what you really want to do, isn't it?"

Yuukawa Yaya looked at Yuukawa Arashi with an innocent expression: "Sister, you've misunderstood me."

Yu Chuanlan sighed softly, "Never mind, I'll ask for you."

"Sister, you agreed?" Yuukawa Yaya asked with a look of surprise and delight.

"If Shiraki-kun agrees, then of course I won't stop him."

"Besides, I feel at ease knowing he's with you."

I was actually quite interested in Chapter Twenty-Three

The next morning.

After cleaning the shrine as usual, it was almost time for Shiraki Shun to leave to catch the early train.

Even if you have a kidney that's about to be blessed, it can't replace you in learning knowledge.

You still have to go to school.

Arrive at Hidein.

Just as Shiraki Shun was about to change his shoes, he heard a clear, cheerful voice beside him: "Good morning, Shiraki-san!"

Rena Kokonoe smiled broadly and walked quickly to Shun Shiraki's side, looking eager to share something.

"Good morning, Kokonoe-kun," Shiraki Shunya replied politely. "Does Takanashi-kun have any good news?"

This is not hard to deduce.

Although he and Kokonoe Reina were classmates, they were not close.

The only thing that could have happened recently that made Kokonoe Reina so happy and eager to share with him was something about Takanashi Yuri.

"Yes!" Kokonoe Reina's face beamed with a bright smile.

“I just spoke with Yuri on the phone. She said that barring any unforeseen circumstances, she can be discharged from the hospital this weekend and come back to school on Monday!”

"Thanks to Shiraki-san, Yuri recovered so quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Shiramu Jun couldn't help but smile and nod.

It seems that seals do have some effect in dispelling negative energy.

However, what truly led to Yuri Takanashi's rapid recovery was her desire for life and the heartfelt calls from her family and friends.

The role played by the seals should not be too significant.

"By the way, Shiraki-san, although Yuri didn't reveal your identity, her father insisted that I convey his gratitude to you and asked me to give you his phone number," Kokonoe Reina continued.

"That won't be necessary," Bai Mujun shook his head and declined.

Expressing gratitude is simply a way of repaying him financially.

But Shiraki Shun's actions were simply out of a desire to help others and save innocent lives.

Money and such are not important.

As long as it's the thought that counts.

Kokonoe Reina, however, looked determined not to give up and whispered a hint: "Shiraki-san, Yuri's father is the chairman of Mikami Corporation. Shouldn't you get to know him?"

Mikami Co., Ltd.!

That's a company that has emerged as a dark horse in the home renovation and old house remodeling industry in recent years, occupying a large market share.

And Shiraki is the future successor of Suga House Industry.

Getting to know them will definitely be beneficial!

Shiramu Jun's eyes lit up.

Mikami Co., Ltd.?

Skillful.

I'm currently looking for a suitable renovation company to start work on the shrine, but I'm struggling because I don't know much about the market and don't know where to begin.

I never expected there would be one right next to me.

With such a hardcore renovation company, they'll probably save a lot of money. The extra money could be used to paint the torii gate or build a mountain road.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but clap his hands in admiration.

Takanashi and his family are truly destined to be part of our shrine.

Since that's the case, and the other party insists on expressing their gratitude with some material things, I can only accept them.

Fate is a matter that cannot be measured by money.

Shiraki Shun then noted down Takanashi Kazuki's phone number from Kokonoe Reina, planning to ask him about it when he had some free time after returning to the shrine.

Hearing such good news first thing in the morning made him feel incredibly happy.

They are also more efficient at engaging in learning.

Looking up, I saw that the first subject was physics.

He then took out a thick, over a thousand-page-long, and extremely impressive-looking "Great Dictionary of Shinto History" from his schoolbag and placed it on the table to use in conjunction with his textbook.

This is also why Shiraki Shun's physical condition is quite good.

He carried a large amount of research materials on theology with him, making his backpack heavier than others.

The students said they were not surprised by Bai Mujun's actions.

After all, he's a top student.

They would only find it strange if Shiraki Shun were looking at the same thing as them, studying how this electrified metal rod does work in a magnetic field.

Even the teachers were impressed when they saw it.

The highest realm of physics is theology.

Shiraki's level is truly too high.

However, Shiraki Shun didn't care much about what others were saying.

His passion for learning stems not only from his desire to influence the divine, but also from his wish to apply the wisdom accumulated over thousands of years to the present era.

Just as recorded in the records of Kanda Shrine.

Physics, in particular, is the subject most closely associated with the supernatural.

If we can explain ghosts and monsters using physical methods, and even use physical means such as electric fields and magnetic fields to exorcise supernatural phenomena, then...

That would be a groundbreaking discovery.

Thinking of this, Bai Mujun felt a sense of exhilaration and immediately intensified his studies.

A day passes quickly.

Before we knew it, it was time to go home from school.

Shiraki Shun closed the "Shinto Encyclopedia" in his hand with some regret.

Having only swum around in the ocean of knowledge, it was time to return to the shrine.

If I want to learn again...

Then you'll have to pay for your own electricity.

As expected of the evil capitalism, they let students leave school so early just to save money.

As Shiraki Jun sighed, he took out his phone.

Ok?

Yuukawa-san actually sent a message.

"Shiraki-kun, shouldn't school be over by now?"

"There's something I'd like to ask of you, Shiraki-kun. Is that alright?"

Thinking it might be a commission, Shiramu Jun replied immediately.

"Please speak, Hanekawa-san."

"Shiraki-kun, have you ever watched any videos about ghost hunting?"

Bai Mujun was slightly taken aback.

So-called ghost-hunting videos refer to videos where the filmmaker goes to places that are rumored to be cursed or haunted, films the scenes on location, and then edits them together.

Before he made his debut, he had watched many videos like this to gain experience.

He still had a question at the time.

Why are these videos circulating online?

Aren't you afraid of causing public panic?

It was the gods who enlightened him.

According to the gods, a large part of the power of the supernatural comes from the fear in people's subconscious.

When the accumulated fear in a certain area exceeds a certain threshold, that place may transform into a sinister place, becoming what people call a haunted location.

A good exorcism video can accurately unveil the mystery of these places, reduce people's fear of the supernatural, weaken the power of the place, and thus achieve the purpose of exorcism.

Therefore, many temples and shrines will take the initiative to take photos out of a sense of obligation.

Although the government has not explicitly stated it, it is clearly supporting it in some sense.

As a result, the trend of ghost hunting gradually grew, and the number of people filming ghost hunting videos also gradually increased.

Aside from professional exorcists, there are also quite a few young people who take a reckless approach to life.

The styles are also diverse, no longer so serious, and gradually becoming a popular form of entertainment.

When Takanashi Yuri and her friends enthusiastically went to Blue Stone Park to explore the ghosts, this kind of trend also played a role.

"I've seen it." Shiraki-kun didn't intend to hide it.
