Looking at Amano Haruna's helpless and extremely shy appearance, Ye Xing chuckled.
"He is obviously teasing you."
"Oh, that's how it is..."
Upon hearing that Amano Haruna and Yohoshi were not lovers, the red thread jumped twice again, forming a thoughtful expression.
His goal is to save all the townspeople from the meteorite disaster that will destroy the entire Itomori Town in the future timeline.
The lives of the residents of Itomori Town are the most important, but it would be even better if his shrine and Itomori Town itself could be saved as well.
Ordinary people may not be able to do this.
But He felt that Yexing could do it if he wanted to.
Is there any way to get Ye Xing, who has such a personality, to protect Itomori Town?
This god came up with a wonderful idea.
His divine messenger Miyamizu Mitsuha is exactly the same age as Lord Yexing. Tell me, how could such a coincidence happen in this world?
The whole lovers bond!
By that time......
Xiao Sanye became Lord Yoho's girlfriend. If the two wanted to stay together often, Xiao Sanye would have to leave Itomori Town and go to school in a big city.
And Lord Yexing will surely do his best to save his lover's hometown.
Doesn't this directly solve two needs?
The best of both worlds.
"Then I'll trouble you, Lord Yexing, to rest outside for one night. There is a hotel in that direction."
.......
Half an hour later, they found themselves in a small hotel that looked a bit old on the outside but was very clean and tidy on the inside.
An old lady with a kind face saw Amano Haruna and Yohoshi walk in and spoke with a smile.
"Two guests, do you want to stay in the hotel?"
"Correct."
"All the rooms are vacant now. Would you like to take one or two rooms?"
Amano Haruna opened her lips and was hesitating, not knowing how to start the conversation. She was about to say something like "only open one restaurant" when Ye Xing spoke first.
“Just open one.”
"Ok."
While the old woman was going through the paperwork, Ye Xing lowered her voice to Amano Haruna beside her.
"Since there's a risk of being attacked, it's safer for the two of us to stay in the same room and watch each other, right?"
Amano Haruna blushed slightly and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum.
"Well... I, I can do anything..."
"Then let's go."
After completing the registration formalities, the old woman led the two to an quaint Japanese-style room.
How quaint is it?
There was not even a bed, only a mat on the floor. Through the window, you could see the fields on both sides of the road.
"Here are the keys. If you need anything, just tell me. Although the food here is simple, you can eat as much as you want. It's included in the room rate."
Amano Haruna bowed slightly and responded politely.
"Ok, thank you."
"Yeah, you're welcome."
The old woman looked at the young Amano Haruna and Yohoshi, who were traveling alone and came to this remote place with a kind smile on her face. It was obvious that she had imagined a scene in her mind where a young couple went out alone and took advantage of the holiday to secretly get engaged.
After the other party left, Amano Haruna looked at Ye Xing, who was sitting on a chair and gazing at the scenery outside the window in a trance, with a worried look on her brows.
"Um...if we stay here, won't that old woman be in danger?"
Ye Xing waved his hand and replied casually.
"There is no 'door' nearby, so there are no overly powerful evil spirits. Those ordinary evil spirits can only have a very limited impact on the real world. For ordinary people like the old woman who cannot 'observe', the most they can do is make their heads feel dizzy and their spirits become listless, but they cannot cause direct physical harm."
"Ah That's good."
Amano Haruna nodded obediently and responded softly.
I can only say that fortunately, within the Sakura Province, the places where "gates" and the other world have appeared are currently only in the two cities of Tokyo and Kyoto.
If a battle were to take place in those two cities with the guy who controls the weather, not to mention the many powerful evil spirits he could control, if they were evil spirits that had merged with the "gate", they could even directly interfere with reality.
At that time, it will not be a question of whether or not they will be affected, but a question of how many people can survive in the area where the battle took place.
..........
Gradually, it was evening.
The meals the old woman cooked were simple, just the simplest side dishes served with rice soaked in tea.
However, neither Amano Haruna nor Yohoshi were the type who were particularly particular about food, so it was enough for them to take a break, relieve their tense mood, and prepare for the next battle.
On summer nights, you can hear the crisp chirping of cicadas outside the window.
The cool night breeze blew in through the tiny gaps in the window.
"It's already eleven o'clock..."
Amano Haruna muttered softly, looking at the only futon on the ground, pursed her lips, looked at Ye Xing and whispered.
"You should rest first. I won't sleep tonight."
"We'll talk about this later."
Yexing shook his head and turned to look at Amano Haruna.
"The question now is, how long do we need to wait here? If that guy has discovered that we are waiting here on purpose, he can take his time and mobilize the evil spirits around to fight a war of attrition with us. We cannot afford to waste time."
Amano Haruna frowned slightly when she heard this, and also realized this problem.
The population density in the area around Itomori Town is incomparable to that of Tokyo and Kyoto, and the density of evil spirits is naturally far less as well.
Those hundreds of evil spirits may have mobilized all the evil spirits within dozens of kilometers around.
The evil god who controls the weather knows how to use moral kidnapping to obtain living sacrifices for himself. It is obvious that he possesses extremely high intelligence.
What if the other party discovers our intentions and wastes our time? What should we do then?
Ye Xing looked thoughtful, his eyes fixed on Amano Haruna, and his eyes seemed to have some deep meaning.
"Fishing also requires bait to get the fish to bite."
.........
At the same time, in Itomori Town, inside the Miyamizu family residence.
Mitsuha Miyamizu was flipping through her phone in the room, looking a little absent-minded, when she suddenly saw strands of red silk threads appear in front of her, quickly forming a sentence.
"Sanye, I need your help now."
Miyamizu Mitsuha was stunned for a moment, then stammered.
"God...Lord God."
"Oh, sisters, there's no need to be so polite."
"Sister...sister?"
Miyamizu Mitsuha felt both amused and helpless at this title.
Your own mother-in-law calls the other party "Lady God", so how can you call her sister?
This is just messing up the generations.
Besides........
Are gods divided into male and female?
"What kind of help do you need?"
"Tomorrow morning, if the bus is not running yet, I hope you can ask a friend to help you drive to pick up Lord Yohoshi and go to Itomori Town."
"Tomorrow morning? Okay, I got it."
After saying this, the red thread disappeared.
........
On the other side, inside the hotel room.
The red thread appeared in front of Ye Xing and Amano Haruna, and greeted them first.
"Lord Yexing, Hina."
Then He went on to form a sentence.
"I have thought of a way to force that guy into a desperate situation and lure him into the trap."
After seeing these words, Ye Xing turned to look at Amano Haruna, his tone sounding somewhat meaningful.
"Is the method you mentioned the same as the one I was thinking of?"
"From your expression, it seems that you have already thought of it. It is exactly that method."
"This method...well, it seems to be the only way."
Listening to this man and this god having a conversation like a riddle, Amano Haruna tilted her head slightly, looking innocent, and asked curiously.
"What is the solution?"
The red silk thread twisted twice and came in front of Amano Haruna, and the words formed sounded very serious.
"Hina, you should know that in order to restore the weather to normal and to prevent more innocent girls from becoming living sacrifices, we must stop that guy, right?"
Amano Haruna was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously with a determined look in her eyes.
"Yes, I understand. We must stop Him."
"Are you ready for this?"
"Well, I'm ready."
"very good."
The red thread nodded its end as if it was very satisfied, and then formed a sentence that made Amano Haruna unbelievably outrageous.
"In that case, please do some physical intimacy with Master Yexing."
"Eh? Eh!?"
Amano Haruna blushed with embarrassment. She glanced at Ye Xing who was sitting there, her tongue was almost tangled and she stammered.
"These...are these two things related?"
"Of course it matters."
Ye Xing took over the topic and asked in a persuasive tone.
"Think about it, in the legend of the Sunny Lady, what characteristics do the girls who are chosen as living sacrifices have?"
Amano Haruna thought for a moment, then replied hesitantly.
"Hmm... all younger?"
"Yes, they are all girls, which means they are all innocent."
"Clean... innocent..."
Hearing this word, Amano Haruna vaguely understood what Yexing meant.
"That guy is the most intolerable..."
Amano Haruna muttered to herself, her tone sounding very complicated.
"The sacrifice I chose was contaminated...which means I...lost my innocence?"
