Chapter 987 Witch

After dinner, the little wizards tasted the wine they brewed at the invitation of the host. Each of the little wizards had a glass of milk. After a pleasant conversation, the two old men couldn't keep up.

It was time for their daily rest.

As guests, the little wizards stood up one after another and said that they and others had been tired from traveling and traveling today and wanted to have a good sleep.

"Yazi, the guests are begging you." Mrs. Ono warned, "Be sure to let the guests have a good rest."

The maid known as Yao nodded expressionlessly and led the little wizards to Ono's guest room.

This is a three-story mansion, with two rooms on each floor, a reception room and a study room. Outside the house is a small garden and a pond, which should be cleaned regularly.

"There are exactly six rooms." Yaozi said, "You can choose a room to live in. Breakfast will be in the restaurant just now. The master and his wife got up early, so I suggest you get up at 6 o'clock."

The little wizards thanked him one after another and wanted to get some information.

"Miss Kujo Suzune?" Yaozi was visibly stunned when he heard the little wizards' questions, "I see, are you here to find someone?"

The little wizards nodded quickly.

"Are you Miss Kujo Suzune's classmate?" Yako was surprised, and then explained, "In fact, Miss Kujo participated in this sacrificial activity as a shrine maiden of this village."

"Ah..." The little wizards were a little confused. Isn't it a ritual? Then they realized that they and others had been taken into a ditch by an unreliable driver!

Murakami Takashi looked at Mr. Kuwata sadly, "Mr. Kuwada, that is not called a ritual, but a sacrifice."

Mr. Sangtian scratched his head and asked with some confusion, "Ah? Isn't worshiping ancestors a ritual?"

"Of course not!" the little wizards said in unison, "What the monks hold is called a ritual! What the priests hold is of course a sacrifice!"

The culprit appears! Sure enough, it was because of this unreliable driver that they made the wrong judgment!

Without hesitation, the blame was passed on to the driver. The curiosity of the little wizards was aroused, "Speaking of which, why is Miss Kujo a miko?"

"I heard it's because there is only one girl of the right age, Miss Kujo." Yako regained her calm expression, "After all, many years have passed, and many people are no longer willing to come back to live here. They want to come back and rebuild here. There are still a small number of people living in the house, and although the village chief has tried his best, the actual number of people who have returned may only be half of the previous number, and among these people, only Miss Kujo meets the requirements."

"Huh? Doesn't that mean that Miss Kujo will be very busy?" Hermione said worriedly, "Does she still have to go to school?"

Yako tilted her head and asked in confusion, "Going to school? I heard that Miss Kujo has dropped out of school. Didn't the school receive her withdrawal application?"

The little wizards were a little dumbfounded.

What, you've dropped out of school?

Then why would someone entrust a spiritual master to come to Xiliu Village to investigate the disappearance of his classmates?

After seeing Yao Zi off, the little wizards gathered together and started chatting.

"It always feels like we are involved in trouble." Robert said with a headache. "The scariest thing is that we still don't know where this trouble comes from."

The expressions on the faces of the little wizards were not very good. The feeling of being deceived into a trap was unpleasant. If they could return to Naruto City now, they would definitely go and argue with Monk Ryochen.

What kind of commission are you accepting?

The night passed, and luckily they were safe and sound. Early the next morning, the little wizards asked the Ono couple to take a stroll in the village.

"Want to take a walk around the village?" Mrs. Ono said with a smile, "That's no problem, but do you need someone to guide you?"

Robert quickly waved his hand and declined, "There is no need for such a thing. Exploring unknown places is also one of the joys of traveling."

Mrs. Ono nodded in agreement, "I was like this when I was young. Exploring the unknown is the driving force for mankind to always move forward!"

Mr. Ono took a sip of tea and breathed out, "I heard from Yaozi, are you here to find your classmates? In that case, then go to the shrine and ask. That girl Kujo should still be working hard now. Learn the knowledge of witches."

"There is also a shrine here?" The little wizards were surprised. Wasn't this village just built? Are there any priests stationed here?

This speed is too fast, right?

Onoya's house is in the east of the village, closer to the south, and the shrine is in the northeast of the village. It's not too far to walk there, and the little wizards quickly saw the majestic shrine.

At this time, there was a witch wearing a red and white witch costume holding a broom and sweeping at the door.

"Hello." The little wizards walked over and said hello to the miko, "We are here to see the miko Kujo Suzune..."

Hearing this, the witch raised her head in confusion and looked at the little wizards, "Are you...looking for me?"

The little wizards were surprised, weren't they? Did you find someone so quickly?

Then he realized that if the news was correct, she should indeed be Miss Kujo. After all, according to Yako, she was the only shrine maiden in Yuru Village at this time, unless a shrine maiden went here with the priest to assist in the sacrifice.

But there shouldn’t be many young miko running here, right?

The rebuilt village and all, it sounds like a desolate place.

Miss Yuko immediately stood up and started talking to Miss Miko, but Miss Miko obviously didn't want to communicate.

"I'm... practicing..." Miss Kujo said in a low voice. Her voice sounded soft and weak. It seemed like she was not someone willing to resist. "You can't be lazy..."

Miss Yuko said gently, "But your friend wants you to go back soon. She is still waiting for you to go to the cafeteria to grab fried noodles and bread while having lunch together. After that, we sit on the roof of the school to enjoy lunch together, and then in the secret base behind the water tower. Take a leisurely lunch break.”

"Misa..." Miss Kujo held the broom tightly with both hands, and her whole body trembled, "I, I have submitted my application for withdrawal from school... I should, I should not go to school again..."

As she spoke, as if to cheer herself up or make some kind of determination, Miss Kujo raised her head and said loudly, "My dream is to become a shrine maiden of Yudome Shrine, not to go to school! I have obviously dropped out of school, Why, why are you still looking for me? Can't you let me go?"

Shouting like this, Miss Kujo's tears flowed out in great numbers, "I, I just want to be a miko!"
