I think I noticed a couple of typos:

"... back in the <b>in</b> normal shrine precincts ..."

"... but what do (you) think Tamao meant ..."

Sounds as if Kazumi has dirty secrets. Didn't someone here think that she might be one of the girls from the park? But if she was the one who didn't run away immediately after the harae, wouldn't Akiko remember her face? Then again, perhaps Kazumi's secret is a little bit more innocent than that. Or a lot worse! If Akiko "understood the girl completely", does she already know everything?
