The weekend of this week has quickly come.

Saturday morning.

According to the agreement he made with Hoshino Aihime last night, Kiritani Tetsuya came to the torii gate of Kanda Shrine at almost nine o'clock in the morning.

Taking out his cell phone and looking at the time, Kiritani Tetsuya found that it was almost the appointed time, so he prepared to try to find Hoshino Aihime nearby.

Just when Kiritani Tetsuya was about to move his eyes around, his shoulder was suddenly tapped from behind.

When he turned around to look, he found that the girl he was looking for was already standing behind him, looking up at him slightly, as if she had just arrived here.

Different from her capable and steady image in school, Hoshino Aihime today wears a looser black T-shirt on her upper body, paired with a pair of white women's leggings underneath, holding a small and delicate beige bag in her right hand.

The overall look of the shoulder bag is full of casualness and comfort, which brings out the beauty of this godly girl that is different from that in school.

Apart from the previous disguise of Utsunomiya Miu, this was the first time Kiritani Tetsuya saw this godly girl wearing clothes other than JK, and he felt a little strange for a moment.

However, when Kiritani Tetsuya's eyes shifted to the girl's loose T-shirt top, his eyes became a little bit strange inexplicably. He seemed to find a long-lost familiarity in that piece of clothing. At the same time, the memories of his previous death came to him.

It also began to attack his brain.

At this moment, Kiritani Tetsuya seemed to be recalling the time when he and Utsunomiya Miu lived together in the first semester, when this divine girl and Ibuki Tamao came to visit temporarily.

"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with what I'm wearing today?"

Sensing Kiritani Tetsuya's eyes on her clothes, Hoshino Aihime asked curiously, while looking down at what she was wearing today.

"It's no problem. I think it suits you very well."

Kiritani Tetsuya shook his head and slowly put away the thoughts in his mind. After thinking for less than a second, he gave up his plan to ask the other party for the clothes back.

"Then let's go directly."

After saying this, Kiritani Tetsuya shrugged his shoulders and finally looked away from the other person.

"Okay." Hoshino Aiji nodded lightly and said.

Although she didn't understand the slightly weird reaction of the other party just now, since the other party said that there was nothing wrong, Hoshino Aihime didn't bother to delve into it further, and then followed the other party to the shrine.

Immediately afterwards, the two passed through the light blue torii gate and walked one behind the other on the approach path leading to the main area of ​​the shrine.

Although today is the weekend, there are not many people coming to the shrine to worship. Kiritani Tetsuya rarely encounters a few people along the way, which makes the entire shrine, which is quite long, relatively wide and quiet.

Having said that, this seems to be the first time he has been to this kind of place this year. In the past, only during the Chinese New Year and when his parents happened to be still in Japan, Kiritani Tetsuya would come to the shrine with them for the annual first pilgrimage.

But what surprised him even more was that the girl who was walking behind him at this moment, only three or four steps away from him, actually came here.

After all, given Hoshino Aihime's true identity as the incarnation of a god, Kiritani Tetsuya originally thought that the other party would sneer at such a place.

"By the way, if I brought you here today, did it waste the precious time you and your little girlfriend spend together?"

Just as Kiritani Tetsuya was thinking this, Hoshino Aiki's clear voice, as if without any impurities, came from behind.

"We don't have to stay together every weekend."

Hearing the girl's sudden teasing, Kiritani Tetsuya subconsciously paused as he stepped forward, but quickly continued walking forward.

"And I also told her today that I would accompany a friend to the shrine so that she could review her homework at home without any worries." Kiritani Tetsuya added slowly.

"Oh, so we are already friends?"

"Isn't it?" Kiritani Tetsuya asked back.

"It's nothing, I'm just a little sad that in just over a month, we suddenly became friends who can go out together."

Hoshino Aihime's unhurried voice continued to be heard from behind.

"I remember when I saw you walking on the stage as the exchange student representative at the opening ceremony, I never thought I would be able to talk to you so much now."

After Hoshino Aihime said this, Kiritani Tetsuya couldn't help but recall the scene when he attended the opening ceremony of Tamada High School.

Especially when he passed by Hoshino Aiki on the stage, the girl's sudden glare was still fresh in his memory.

Thinking of this, Kiritani Tetsuya grinned slightly, but he quickly put down the memories for the time being, and then spoke calmly.

"Perhaps it was thanks to those few after-school tutoring sessions that our relationship became what it is today."

"So are you coming next time?" Hoshino Aihime asked after taking over the other party's words.

"Just spare me." Tetsuya Kiritani responded with a posture of surrender.

Saying this, the two of them walked the entire shrine and arrived at the gate of Kanda Shrine.

In view of the purpose of going to and from the shrine this time, after passing through the solemn crimson gate of the shrine, Kiritani Tetsuya and Hoshino Aihime first came to the machine shop that specializes in selling yamamori.

Considering that Miyajima Yui personally gave herself a love guardian a few days ago, although the reason for the gift is a bit inexplicable, following the principle of reciprocity, Kiritani Tetsuya also planned to give one to the other party.

So after Hoshino Aihime got the health guard she wanted in front of the vending machine, Kiritani Tetsuya immediately stepped forward, took out the coins he had prepared in advance, and followed the girl's example and bought a health guard.

"Speaking of which, why don't you buy one for Meiyu? Just think of it as encouragement before taking the exam."

After taking out the newly bought Yushu from the machine, Kiritani Tetsuya suddenly had this idea in his mind.

So after a while, he took out another coin and put it into the vending machine. This time he chose to buy an academic guardian and planned to give it to Utsunomiya Miu when he had time next week to protect this person.

The divine girl will be able to successfully pass the next monthly test.

After finishing these things, Kiritani Tetsuya put the purchased royal guard into the black crossbody bag he carried with him, and then turned around and looked at Hoshino Aihime, who had been waiting for him for a while.

"What I have to do today should be considered completed now."

Looking at the girl who was dazed in the empty field in front of her with her arms gently folded across her chest, Kiritani Tetsuya spoke, and at the same time he looked around the interior of Kanda Shrine.

"But since we're all here, why don't we stop by and pay homage in front." Kiritani Tetsuya suggested later.

"Well, I had vague plans to do so."
Chapter completed!
