I couldn't really decide how to progress things after a point due to Reisen not really having much of a connection the plot outside of being Eientei's envoy and then my hands got full writing the Suzu. I'll probably get out an update for her so that anyone that wants her can pick her up.

"You're certain of those numbers?"

"Of course I am, Reisen. The real amount is likely higher, these are the ones that came to this for treatment. The real number is likely higher." Eirin said as she tried to give focus on the documents and charts she made over the last few weeks and wrote something down. Eientei had seen an outbreak of activity recently. But it wasn't any sickness, but rather many women seeking treatment for the early stages of pregnancies. Eirin has recently confirmed her suspicions that it was all related to that place, but that only worried Reisen even more. Eirin turned around to her assistant. "We'll devote more resources on prenatal care. Even with flu season coming up, we can deal with our current and future cases without issue" Future cases? So the doctor knew something Reisen did not.

Reisen fretted. This was all so wrong. Anon had fathered an entirely new generation without any knowledge, and there where more on the way. It was a disaster in the making, and if Anon found out it would break him. Reisen tried to find the best way to address her concerns to the stony doctor. "What are your plans for dealing for the fallout of this? The husband of the shrine maiden fathering so many children with so many women? Won't it end up blowing up?"

Eirin flipped through some charts, this was her way of not paying attention to conversations she found stupid, Reisen noted. "We are a hospital. We treat them for their pregnancy, not help them with their poor life choices. Any controversies that result from this are left to other people to navigate"

Reisen nodded. She should have expected an answer like that. "But there's miss Hakurei. If she finds out what happened she might blame us"

Eirin paused her busywork and turned to look at Reisen again, her expression softening. "She has never breached the walls to that place and does not know of our involvement. Even if she were to get the information in her typical aggressive manner, Eientei has defences in place to defend against intruders. You know all of this. She's in no state to be a danger to us" Reisen thought back to the last time she saw Reimu as she went on her rounds in the village. The haggard miko was drifting through the market like a ghost, haunting everyone with her presence until she had scrounged up food and left. Reimu seemed hardly be able to keep it together, much less launch an assault on Eientei.

"You need to look into this as an opportunity. A chance to study reproduction between human and youkai, something that was incredibly rare. This is an entirely field, and we have a chance to see the development as it happens on a wide scale. Hm. If only we had a control group, I'd like to see how the development of the offspring goes without the use of fertility drugs. Something to look into later, I suppose" Eirin jotted something down in.a notebook.

Reisen decided to take a gamble to prod the doctor for more information. "Maybe we should bring him here for an examination if that's the case? He's an important link in all of this, it might help"

"No need. It can be done onsite. You'll be handling some of those duties. I can't trust anyone else" Reisen was about to open her mouth to ask what she meant, but she remembered all the gravid looking rabbits that were sheepishly doing their duties around the mansion. Oh.

But this confirmed something for her. As little as the doctor cares about the little people, she always took her duties as a doctor and scientist seriously, so to be so insistent that a patient in such a dangerous job and in the middle of a potentially groundbreaking study does not need treatment at Eientei meant the doctor didn't want him her. Or couldn't bring him here. Reisen bit her lower lip. Something big was going on, and while she knew she shouldn't doubt a super genius, she didn't like Eirin's involvement in this one bit.
