Ja: 寺の関係者も、春樹の言葉を簡単には信じません。「お宝はただの装飾品だ」と、誤情報が広まっていました。
En: Temple officials were also reluctant to believe Haruki's words, with false information spreading that "the treasure was just a decoration."

Ja: 祭りの最中、寺の境内は人々で溢れていました。
En: During the festival, the temple grounds were crowded with people.

Ja: 春樹たちは怪しい来客を追い詰め、ついに対面します。
En: Haruki and his friends cornered the suspicious visitor and finally confronted him.

Ja: 「あなたが持っているものは、清水寺の大切なものです」と、春樹は静かにしかし確信に満ちた声で言いました。
En: "What you have is something precious to Kiyomizu-dera," Haruki said quietly but with certainty in his voice.
