Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Mari Tsuchimikado said calmly, "He can't withstand my demon body; he'll be burned to death."

"Too."

After thinking about it, Tachibana Yui finally gave up on the plan.

Her approach to Haruhiko has already aroused his suspicion.

If we replace her with Tsuchimikado Mari, it will be even more troublesome.

Haruhiko returned to Nanyuan.

He opened the door and saw Xue Ji standing prettily in front of him.

She was wearing a white kimono-style nightgown, which revealed her beautiful collarbone.

Haruhiko asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why are you wearing pajamas?"

"I just finished my cultivation and took a bath."

Yuki took his hand naturally and said, "Come in."

Haruhiko nodded, closed the door, and stepped into the hall.

"Are you thirsty?"

Yukihime's soft body pressed against her.

She hooked her left arm around Haruhiko's neck and put a grape in his mouth with her right hand.

After a while, Haruhiko finished eating and drinking and began to cultivate.

At six o'clock, Yuki let go of him and went to the kitchen.

The faint fragrance still seemed to linger in the air.

Mobile phone vibration.

Haruhiko opened it and saw a message from Hoshino Rin.

"I'm fine now. Are you free tomorrow?"

"What? Is it a date?"

Haruhiko couldn't resist teasing her.

"No...no! It's not a date! Don't talk nonsense!"

Even in words, you can see Hoshino Rin's panic.

"So what are you going to do tomorrow?"

Haruhiko immediately burst into laughter.

It's really quite fun.

The only pity is that I can't see her reaction in person.

"Do you remember the Koishikawa Korakuen murder case I told you about last time?"

Hoshino Rin typed rapidly, afraid that he might misunderstand.

"The Imperial Palace has designated this as a second-tier commission. I've accepted it, so I'd like to ask you to work with me. Are you interested?"

"I see."

Haruhiko pondered for a moment, then asked, "Are you confident about the second stage? Let's not end up like a pair of star-crossed lovers."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Hoshino Rin blushed slightly and subconsciously puffed out her chest as she typed, "I am the heir to the Izumo Shrine, and reaching the third rank shouldn't be a big problem."

"Yes, Miss Rin."

Haruhiko agreed.

The rewards for second-tier commissions are more generous.

Whether it's in the Imperial Palace or in the game.

In short, it's worth the trip.

"Then it's settled! We'll meet at the entrance of Koishikawa Korakuen Garden tomorrow at 2 PM."

Hoshino Rin paused, then reiterated, "This is just a request, not a date!"

End the chat.

Haruhiko called Jinguji Fuyumi and explained the reason to her.

There's no need to go back on Saturday; wait until Sunday.

After receiving permission from Jinguji Fuyugo, he hung up the phone and turned on the television.

It turned out to be another concert advertisement featuring Tachibana Yui.

Haruhiko couldn't help but sigh, "It's really popular."

He suddenly thought of Hoshino Rin and sent her a message.

"Tachibana Yui, do you know?"

I listen to her songs occasionally.

Hoshino Rin typed, "Why are you asking about this?"

"She has a concert at Tokyo Dome on Saturday night, do you want to go? I have tickets."

Haruhiko, in the spirit of not wasting anything, asked.

The tickets that Tachibana Yui gave him were all VIP seats in the front row, which could sell for exorbitant prices online.

I just finished fighting monsters this afternoon, so I can go to a concert to relax.

It's a combination of work and rest.

In a room at Izumo Shrine.

Hoshino Rin instinctively gripped her phone tighter.

Is this a date?

Even through a layer of soft flesh, she could hear her own heart pounding.

Although she was reluctant to admit it, she seemed to have a lot more emotions than before.

Haruhiko waited for Hoshino Rin's reply.

But it took a full three minutes to receive it.

Just one word, um.

What's the reaction?

Haruhiko was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood the reason.

Could Hoshino Rin be mistaking this for a date invitation?

He couldn't help but chuckle softly.

He swears to God, he truly had no such intention.

However, it is indeed easy to cause misunderstandings.

Haruhiko thought for a moment, but offered no explanation.

It would be hypocritical to say that a girl like Hoshino Rin has no interests.

Just be wrong.

"Haruhiko."

Yuki poked her head out from the kitchen doorway. "Get ready to eat."

Haruhiko turned off the TV.

Soon, the food was served.

"I'll go do the request tomorrow afternoon, and then go back to Inari Shrine the day after tomorrow."

Haruhiko picked up his chopsticks and said.

Yukihime's light blue eyes revealed a hint of hesitation.

After a moment of silence, she said, "I'll go with you to do the commission."

Together?

Wouldn't that instantly turn into a chaotic battleground?

Haruhiko shook his head and said, "Don't worry, it's just a small request."

Yukihime looked at him silently.

Although she didn't say it, she wanted to go.

Perhaps besides caring about his safety, the most important thing is to be able to stay by his side.

Are you going back to Inari Shrine the day after tomorrow?
