In front of Maizuru, Morikawa Yu gently patted Shinkaku's shoulder: "Let me introduce you, Miss Maizuru, this is our most obedient and diligent maid, Miss Shinkaku."

"Although she is not very strong, she has two innate abilities, one of which is the ability to detect people's lies."

"Whether you're telling the truth or a lie, she can tell the moment she hears it."

"You'd better answer honestly, or else..."

Morikawa Yu thought for a moment and suddenly remembered the conversation between Maizuru and the previous priestess that he had just heard in the remnants of history.

Maizuru really wants to eat the food made by Mizuki Rin, as well as the sake made by Mizuki Rin.

Morikawa Yu: "Otherwise, I'll hang you up, tie you to a pillar, and then ask Mizuki Rin to cook a sumptuous meal so I can eat it all in front of you."

"Or ask her to make kuchikami (chewed sake), and then drink it all in front of you, leaving you nothing."

Maizuru is not a bad person; she was simply following the orders of the previous shrine maiden and was acting on command to take Mizuki Rin away. She did not actually harm anyone at the Karasuha Shrine.

The four regional shrines are not in an adversarial relationship.

He couldn't very well do anything too outrageous to her, otherwise it would make him seem heartless.

“You…!” Wuhe’s expression changed instantly.

Mizuki Rin blushed slightly as she thought of the kuchikami sake she had made for the priestess.

Kuchikami sake is a traditional Japanese alcoholic beverage, typically brewed by young girls, who must be virgins who have never had sexual relations, chewing rice to make koji (a type of yeast starter).

However, it is not unique to Japan; this type of liquor exists all over the world, although the requirements vary from place to place.

In her past life, when Morikawa Yu watched the movie "Your Name," she saw the male lead, Tachibana Taki, drinking sake made by the female lead, Miyamizu Mitsuha. She heard that it tasted very good, sweet and sour, and she had always wanted to try it.

But he was just thinking about it.

Most genuine modern "kuchikami sake" is fake sake or diluted sake, and what is sold online is basically counterfeit goods specifically designed to deceive people.

Nine out of ten are fake, and the tenth is especially fake; whoever buys it will be cheated.

Just like the world-famous Cuban cigars.

It is said that the best Cuban cigar tobacco leaves were rubbed on the thighs of beautiful virgins, but that was just a gimmick and a beautiful legend, and the story has since faded away.

Of course, if someone is really rich and has time, then that person can indeed pay a beautiful, naive girl to grind cigar tobacco.

He might have his own kuchikami sake brewed by a traditional beautiful shrine maiden, but whether he could afford it is another matter.

Therefore, in his previous life, he had no intention of trying it at all.

But it is different now.

He met Miss Mizuki Rin.

He would gladly accept a sake made by a beautiful and elegant girl like Mizuki Rin, who is also known as the "Cherry Blossom Shrine Maiden."

Moreover, considering Mizuki Rin's identity, it feels even more different.

She is the head priestess of the Matsue region and the guardian spirit of the shrine maiden who rules the Izumo region. The sake she makes is only enjoyed by the previous shrine maiden; no one else has ever tasted it.

However, considering that Hishitsuki and Mitsuko were both there, he certainly wouldn't let Mizuki Rin do such a strange thing.

If he really wanted to drink it, he wouldn't force Mizuki Rin, but would ask Mizuki Koko to make it.

The big fox is, after all, one of our own beautiful girls, so she's more reassuring, and she won't make Fei Yue and the others angry.

And there's Ryoko.

Ryoko took the shrinking pill, turning into a little girl. Her body redeveloped, and she regained her virginity. When she grows up further, she can be used to make kuchikami sake.

Liangzi spoils him quite a bit, so maybe she'll agree to make it for him to try.

After thinking about it, Morikawa Yu decided to give it a try when she got home.

As for now, he just wanted to threaten Wuhe and make her honestly tell him the whereabouts of the priestess.

Morikawa Yu: "Hurry up and answer, Ms. Maizuru."

"Otherwise, I'll start taking action."

Wuhe bit her lip, looked at him, and then turned her gaze to Xinjue in front of him, her eyes scanning Xinjue's short hair and black and white Lolita maid outfit.

Suddenly, she looked at Xinjue and said, "My favorite food is tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet)."

Xinjue shook her head: "You're lying, you don't like tamagoyaki."

Maizuru: "I like udon noodles, and I'd like them even more if Rin made them."

Xin Jue thought for a moment: "It's half true and half false. The first half sounds false, but the last half must be true."

Maizuru paused for a moment, then finally said, "I like Rin."

Feeling a bit strange, she glanced at her, then at Shui Yuelin: "That's the truth."

"But why are you saying this? Are you trying to use this opportunity to confess your feelings?"

Wuhe blushed instantly, her beautiful face turning completely red.

Mizuki Rin blushed a little when she heard Morikawa Yu say she wanted to drink the kuchikami sake she made, but now, hearing Maizuru's words, she just sighed slightly.

Morikawa Yu cleared her throat: "Now do you believe me, Miss Maizuru?"

"Now it's your turn to answer the questions."

"Otherwise, I really will have to take action against you."

Wuhe gritted her teeth: "Bastard, pervert!"

"If you really lay a hand on us, Her Highness will not let you off!"

Morikawa Yu: "To be honest, regardless of whether she will let me go or not, we really want to find her now. If she comes here now because of you, I will be happy to apologize to her."

Wuhe: "Do you think this kind of thing can be resolved with just an apology? Her Highness will never forgive you. Just wait for her to punish you!"

"Yes, yes." Morikawa Yu nodded with a light laugh: "I'll wait for her to come and punish me."

To be honest, Maizuru's current appearance is not very intimidating, and he really wants to find the priestess. Of course, it would be even better if she could come to him on her own initiative.

"Please stop teasing the crane, Your Highness," Mizuki Rin couldn't help but whisper.

She could tell that Morikawa Yu didn't really intend to do anything bad, which was why she took the initiative to speak up: "Your Highness, my Highness has always acted mysteriously, and Maizuru probably doesn't know where my Highness has gone either."

Morikawa Yu frowned: "I don't know...?"

"Even you, the Divine Child, and her, her personal shikigami, don't know?"

Mizuki Rin shook her head slightly: "It depends on the situation."

“Normally, Her Highness will assign tasks to us, but if it is a very important matter, she is used to doing it herself.”

“She did all of this herself.”

"However, I do know a place she visited not long ago. If you go there, you might be able to find someone who has seen my princess."

Chapter 515 The Great Fox

Morikawa Ha asked: "Where is it?"

Mizuki Rin: "Yes..."

"Rin!" Maizuru raised her voice, trying to interrupt Mizuki Rin and prevent her from speaking.

"Ouch...it hurts!"

Morikawa Yu flicked her forehead, making her crouch down in pain, clutching her head.

Mizuki Rin sighed and continued, "At the Inaba Hakuto Shrine in Inaba Province, Her Highness recently went to the Inaba Hakuto Shrine, saying that she wanted to take away something very important."

"Inaba Country?" Morikawa Yu was taken aback.

He looked at Mitsuko and Hiizuki.

Fujiwara Shiori, who was standing next to Mitsuko, immediately explained, "It is the present-day Tottori City. A long time ago, it was called Inaba Province, and later it was renamed Inaba Province."

"It belonged to the Kansai region under the jurisdiction of Princess Mitsuko and was called the Inaba region."

"Inaba Hakuto Shrine was formerly a local shrine in the Inaba region, but its shrine master, Lord Inaba Tenshi, disliked secret affairs and did not manage them much, which led to chaos in the Inaba region. He was punished by Lady Mitsuko and stripped of his governing authority."

"The Inaba and Hōki regions were merged to form the present-day Tottori region, which is governed by Lord Karasuha."

"Where is the Inaba Hakuto Shrine?" Morikawa Yu asked.

Shiori Fujiwara immediately replied, "We passed by the Hakuto Coast in the northern part of Tottori City when we came to Mount Hōki."

“Okay.” Morikawa Yu nodded, looking at Mitsuko, Hisukatsu, and Asaka, Shinkaku, and Otamaru beside her.

"How about we go to the Inaba Hakuto Shrine now?"

Feiyue nodded.

She didn't care where she went, as long as she could stay by Morikawa Yu's side and protect her.

Mitsuko nodded, but then seemed to remember something and hesitated before finally beckoning to the Crow Feather God.

Wuhe finally recovered from the pain in her forehead, grabbed Shuiyue Lin's arm, and said, "Lin, why did you tell them about the places His Highness went?"

"What if they ruin His Highness's plans?"

Mizuki Rin frowned slightly: "Don't say that, Maho."

"We heard about Princess Mitsuko's reputation not long ago. The former White Fox God Inari God may have been a schemer who manipulated power, but the real Princess Mitsuko is not like that."

"We can try to trust Princess Mitsuko."

"And Wuhe, don't you want to help Her Highness? She's acting all mysterious, I don't know what she's doing, aren't you curious?"

Wuhe lowered her head.

Mizuki Rin stopped looking at her and turned to Morikawa Yu and Mitsuko, bowing respectfully: "Your Highness, Your Highness Mitsuko."

"Please forgive my and Wuhe's previous offense. It wasn't that we deliberately concealed anything about our Highness, but rather that we didn't know her true purpose."

"The only thing I'm certain of is that Her Highness is gentle by nature and would never do anything to harm Izumo."

"If the three princes are willing to help her, I will do my best to help them, tell them about Izumo's situation, and do my part for them."

Morikawa Yu looked at Shinjue.

Xin Jue nodded: "That's the truth."

Morikawa Yuya nodded.

Between Mizuki Rin and Maizuru, Mizuki Rin, the Divine Child, is indeed more sensible.

Morikawa Yu turned to look at the two administrative officers, Fujiwara Shiori and Tokugawa Maka: "Ms. Fujiwara, Ms. Maka, when you came to pick us up, you said there were unusual rumors circulating in the city where the Kansai border meets the Izumo border. What's the situation there now?"

Fujiwara Shiori shook her head: "I don't know yet, Your Highness."

"But according to the intelligence from Anlai City, it should be resolved soon, Your Highness. You need not worry. I will have them submit a report later."

"Yes." Morikawa Yu nodded.

"Then let's go straight back to Tottori City, to the Hakuto Coast in the north of the city, to find the head priest of the Hakuto Shrine in Inaba, and ask the shrine maiden what she took from it."

He looked at Mizuki Rin.

“Miss Mizuki Rin, you were injured earlier and need to rest. Please rest here at the Karasuha Shrine.”

"As for you..."

Morikawaha looked at Maizuru.

This yokai girl, with the determination of "Water Moon Crane," is extremely good at hiding herself. If it weren't for him and Mitsuko, and Hiizuki and the others being here, she might have escaped.

Mizuki Rin will also be taken away by her.

“I’m worried about leaving you here. You have to come with us to the Hakuto Shrine in Inaba.”

“No.” Maizuru shook her head: “I want to be with Rin.”

Morikawa Yu frowned and said, "So that it will be convenient for you to take Miss Mizuki Rin out of Karasuha Shrine and back to Izumo after we leave, right?"

"Forget it."

"You're so dishonest, I won't let you go, nor will I leave you here at the Karasu Shrine."

Upon hearing this, Wuhe pouted.

Morikawa Yu raised her hand and made a gesture as if she were being flicked on the forehead.
