The Great Detective of Gensokyo, but surrounded by Shura Field!

Sanae almost gasped:

"When did I ever say these words?"

"just now."

"Location?"

"In my heart."

"So this is all your own delusion, right?"

Sanae couldn't hold it any longer:

"Don't communicate based on your own delusions!"

"Ahahaha...it really doesn't work..."

Chu Bai laughed dryly twice, then said seriously;

"To be honest, Miss Sanae, the temporary stay was indeed a joke on my part."

"But that deep-sea orb is indeed very useful to me."

"If you only want it as a collectible and have no other use for it, can you sell it to me? I'll buy it at the market price, or exchange it with you for a treasure of equal value."

Hearing Chu Bai say this, Sanae fell into deep thought.

Seeing that she seemed a little entangled, Chu Bai added:

"If it's difficult, forget it. After all, there's more than one Shuiyao Secret Treasure. I can look for it somewhere else."

"No, it's not that difficult."

Sanae clapped her hands and made a decision:

"How about this, you come with me to Moriya Shrine and we can talk about this in detail?"

"It just so happens that both gods are not at home. If you want to avoid the monsters, you can stay here overnight."

Chu Bai was immediately surprised:

"Eh? Is it really okay for an outsider like me to stay overnight at the shrine?"

Sanae nodded slightly:

"Don't worry, there are many empty rooms in the shrine. It's not like you imagine that we have to sleep in the same room."

"And I trust you, so if you're willing, you can stay."

Thanks to Chu Bai's unique friendly temperament and the communication during the house fighting meeting, Sanae finally made this decision.

Of course, as a girl, she also has certain precautions to ensure that she will not be taken advantage of.

And with her identity as the "witch who causes miracles", even if Chu Bai really has ulterior motives, she is confident that she can repel him.

As for the legendary lucky pervert incident, it is a fictional plot that only exists in girls' comics and is impossible to happen.

At least she would definitely not encounter it and get deeply involved in it.

Thinking of this, Sanae extended an invitation to Chu Bai:

"Well, if you don't mind interrupting me, please come to Moriya Shrine and rest for a while, and then we can discuss the Deep Sea Dragon Balls in detail."

Chapter 88: Poisoned? Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Moriya Shrine is located inside the Monster Mountain and is an outside force that moved in not long ago.

There are two real gods here, as well as Sanae Kofudani, a wind priest who has multiple roles.

It is said that when they first moved in, they immediately started a war with the Tengu tribe and the Hakurei Shrine at the same time, and arrogantly wanted to unify the religious beliefs of the entire Gensokyo.

As a result, after being severely punished by the red and white shrine maiden, Sanae finally came to her senses and returned to her original innocent and kind character.

Sanae now takes on responsibilities similar to Reimu's as a shrine maiden, and because of her gentle and kind personality, her popularity as a shrine maiden has far surpassed Reimu's.

"Welcome to Moriya Shrine."

Take the cable car from the foot of Yokai Mountain and go all the way up to the shrine.

Sanae enthusiastically made tea for Chu Bai:

"Kanako-sama and Suwako-sama are not home, so I'm the only one here."

"Sorry for the poor hospitality."

This place is completely different from the Hakurei Shrine which exudes an atmosphere of poverty. The houses here are distributed in an orderly manner, and there are all kinds of exquisite green plants that are quite pleasing to the eye.

Even the tea they brewed was high-end, one cup of which was equivalent to several days' living expenses for the Hakurei shrine maiden.

"It's truly worthy of being called Moriya Shrine."

Chu Bai drank his tea and sighed:

"In terms of wealth alone, it far surpasses the Hakurei Shrine next door."

"Hey, you're too kind."

Sanae, who regarded Hakurei Shrine as a competitor, immediately smiled and brought some tea and snacks to Chu Bai.

Chu Bai naturally didn't hesitate and started enjoying it right away.

but……

Looking at the somewhat empty shrine, he suddenly noticed something strange.

I have heard for a long time that there are two gods in Moriya Shrine, one in charge of the outside and the other in charge of the inside.

Kanako Yasaka often goes out and has participated in many incidents, so it is normal that she is not at home.

But another deity, the legendary Suwako Kashiya, is said to be a true shut-in. So why is she out there too?

And if you think about it carefully, the Moon Sage of Eternal Pavilion seems to be often away from home these days... Is there something big happening in Gensokyo?

"what happened?"

Looking at Chu Bai's dazed expression, Sanae asked doubtfully:

"Is the tea not tasty?"

"...No, I just thought of something."

Chu Bai casually asked Sanae.

In the end, Sanae didn't know what these two gods did.

Considering that Kaguya didn't know about Eirin's arrangements, Chu Bai always felt that these people were mysterious, as if they were planning something.

But after all, there are too few clues, and Chu Bai is not someone who likes to wade into muddy waters.

He quickly put the matter aside and turned to Sanae:

"So, enough small talk, let's talk about the Deep Sea Dragon Ball, shall we?"

"Ok."

Sanae put down her teacup and asked in a gentle voice:

"Before that, please allow me to ask a question."

"What exactly do you want the Deep Sea Dragon Ball for?"

Chu Bai replied:

"That's a long story."

"Can you tell me about it? I'll listen."

"it is good."

Chu Bai took out a gavel from somewhere and slammed it on the table:

"In ancient times, there was a giant named Pangu. Born from the chaos, he was eighteen thousand years old..."

"Wait a moment! This is taking too long!"

Sanae couldn't hold back as soon as she opened her mouth:

"Besides, others at least start from the beginning of the universe. Are you going to start directly from before Pangu was born?"

"Ahaha, isn't this just to relax the atmosphere..."

"Rather than relaxing the atmosphere, it's more like a screw loosened in your head!"

Sanae made a rare sharp comment.

Chu Bai didn't interrupt her anymore and told her the whole story.

It's not a secret anyway, and it's still early, so I might as well just treat it as having tea and chatting with new friends.

……

……

"I see. The Deep Sea Dragon Ball is the last missing Water Moon Secret Treasure you have."

"Gathering the seven secret treasures of the stars can help you awaken the source of magic and restore your strength, right?"

"Sodayo."

Chu Bai nodded:

"So, can you sell me this Deep Sea Dragon Ball? I'll offer a suitable price, or exchange it for a secret treasure of equal value."

"This one……"

Sanae lowered her head slightly, lost in thought.

After a moment, she said seriously:

"For us at the Moriya Shrine, losing the Deep Sea Orb is like an elephant losing its refrigerator, a kangaroo losing its pasta, or even Ultraman losing his Walmart shopping bag."

Chu Bai pondered for a long time before finally reacting:

"...Doesn't that mean it has absolutely no impact?"

"Yes."

Sanae actually admitted:

"This deep-sea dragon ball was taken from the body of an evil dragon named '?tie' in the depths of the Pacific Ocean."

"This evil dragon stirs up storms in the ocean, destroying ships. Due to its advanced cultivation, ordinary Yin-Yang masters and spiritualists are no match for it."

"At that time, Moriya Shrine was still outside, and devout believers came here to pray. Then, Lady Kanako performed a miracle, slaying the evil dragon and taking its dragon ball for her collection, which is now kept inside the shrine."

She paused and continued:

"The function of the Deep Sea Dragon Ball is to accelerate the understanding of the Water Law and to release wave attacks."

"But I am the Wind Blessing who causes miracles. I am born with the ability to call the wind and rain, and the two gods have no use for this bead."

"So the Deep Sea Dragon Ball is now just an ordinary collection of our shrine."

Looking at Chu Bai whose eyes lit up.

Sanae immediately added:

"But having said that, if you want this dragon ball, you need to agree to three conditions of mine."

"Only when all three conditions are met can I give up the Dragon Ball. Otherwise, I can only say sorry."

"no problem!"

Chu Bai patted his chest:

"Don't even mention three conditions. Even if it's two, or even just one, I'll accept it without complaint!"

"...Why are you talking less and less?!"

Sanae twitched her lips and continued:

"The first condition is that you cannot use the Deep Sea Dragon Balls to do bad things."
