Chapter 26 More practice is needed

the other side.

Imari, who had repaired the curtains, was waiting in the small courtyard to get her meal back in the early morning. But when she saw that it was time to go to the shrine to change the candles, Imari had to drink a big gulp of cold water and nibbled on one of the

I took a small apple from the kitchen to cushion my stomach, then changed into a clean servant's uniform and walked towards the shrine.

Along the way, Imari walked a very familiar path, and still couldn't see anyone wherever she looked.

The shrine was as cold as ever. Except for her own footsteps, it was silent as if she had been forgotten by the world.

But just as Imashi stepped into the gate of the shrine, his figure suddenly stiffened imperceptibly.

Someone!

Imashi's pupils suddenly shrank, and the aura around him became tense at that moment.

But even so, Imari calmly continued to walk inside and began to check the burning status of the last round of candles.

The people hiding in the dark don't seem to be from the temple.

Because that person did not come out openly the moment she entered the shrine, but quickly hid on the high beams of the shrine. Judging from such evasive behavior, Imari concluded that

The other party will not be from the temple.

Imari couldn't help but think about the other party's purpose of sneaking into the shrine.

Although she had only been working at the shrine for a few days, based on her professional habits, she had already checked the environment in the shrine one by one. It could be said that every corner of the shrine was in her memory.

She was very sure that apart from the spiritual tablets, there was no money or anything else in the shrine.

So, this person just came here to hide for a while?

Imari's mind changed slightly.

Well, if that's the case, she can just pretend to know nothing, just continue her work, and then leave quietly.

Imari quickly went to the backyard to get a basin of water, and then started her new round of work.

There are many candles in the shrine. Although each candle has a special candlestick to place it, the candle wax sometimes drips from the candlestick to the table, so at this time, special candlesticks are needed.

Use a small knife to scrape away the candle wax on the table.

One side of the shrine.

Imari squatted in front of the corner of a wooden table, with her eyes lowered and her face calmly handling the dried candle wax on the table.

Someone on the beam is still hiding in the darkness high up, and is very patient.

Time seemed to have stopped at this second. Except for the candlelight swaying slightly in front of the sacred wooden tablet, everything seemed to have calmed down at that moment.

until----

"Are you the orphan girl who just entered the shrine?" A man's voice suddenly sounded in the huge shrine.

I saw Ye Xi, who was originally hiding on the beam, leaning against a red stone pillar, looking towards the girl who was carefully cleaning the candle wax on the wooden table not far away with a slightly raised eyebrow, a pair of purple fox eyes.

filled with bloodthirsty excitement.

"What are you doing?" In front of the wooden platform, Imari lit the red candles one after another in front of her, with a calm face without looking back.

When Ye Xi saw this, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes. He paused and seemed to think of something. The smile at the corner of his mouth suddenly became a little brighter, "You already knew I was here?"

Anyone else would have been startled subconsciously or screamed when they heard his sudden question, but the girl in front of her not only had a calm face, she didn't even turn her head, as if she had known about him for a long time.

Average here.

Tsk, didn’t the information he got say that the target of this mission was a rabbit beast?

When did the rabbit beast become so courageous??

"You're not hiding well, you need to practice more." Imari's evaluation was not polite at all.

Ye Xi: "."
