Be a Human Again From Conan
Chapter 716: Lion Zed and Mordred
By the Weiyuanchuan River.
In the gentle cold wind, nearby residents who were running at night passed by one foot at a time. Two special visitors stood by the river and looked at the clear lake water.
"There can't be any traces. After all, ten years have passed." Shishijie Jieli shook his head and said: "With the modern construction speed, it doesn't take ten days to make a place completely unrecognizable."
"Of course I know that kind of thing." Mordred crossed his arms and said in an erratic tone: "Ten years ago, this is where my father fought with other heroic spirits to compete for the Holy Grail...Ten years ago, why didn't I do it last time? Was he summoned?"
"Ah, I didn't participate in the last Holy Grail War. I'm really sorry." Lion Jie said casually, knowing that the other party was just complaining for the sake of complaining.
Thinking of the last Holy Grail War, Lion Tribulation has new doubts. Since the legendary King Arthur is also a woman, how did the son of King Arthur, known as the rebellious knight, come from? She also used the word 'Father' when she called King Arthur.
Of course, he wisely didn’t ask.
There was silence between the two of them, as if they were looking at the river in a trance. The nearby residents running at night passed behind them again, and Mordred regained consciousness.
“Okay, thank you for accompanying me here, Master. Where should we go next?”
"Well..." Shishi Jie looked a little worried: "Several convenient places in Fuyuki City that can be used as strongholds should have been occupied by others. I came too late. As a necromancer, my original plan was to find A cemetery, preferably an underground cemetery, serves as a workshop.
I think you won't be too picky about this kind of thing, but now... the heroic spirit has added a new seven knights, and the opponents I originally thought have become ambiguous companions. To be honest, I am a little undecided. . "
"Cemetery? You really like that kind of disgusting place." Mordred's face suddenly collapsed, "But why do you think I won't be picky? I am a knight, and I want to become the king's knight! Normal people will Protest!"
“Oh? I thought you could overcome any environment... Then there is no other way. How about spending money to buy you a sleeping bag?”
“Just because you can overcome it doesn’t mean you like it! Are you kidding yourself about sleeping bags or something like that?!”
Mordred just complained casually. Having spent many years with her mother, Morgan, a magician, she knew how strange and paranoid these guys were, and it was pointless to struggle.
Sure enough, Lion Jie punched his palm and said, "Then choose the best sleeping bag!"
Mordred sighed helplessly.
At this time, a nearby resident who was running at night passed by behind him for the third time. The veins on Mordred's forehead throbbed, and he turned his head as if he had found some outlet: "Hey! Boy, in ten minutes You ran past us three times! Do we have anything to see?!"
Ji Xing, who was breathing steadily, stopped, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked with some embarrassment: "...I'm sorry, are you two tourists from abroad? Russia? There are very few tourists who come to Fuyuki. You can speak Japanese well?" It’s really good too.”
“Huh? Who is the Russian?” Mordred had a ferocious expression on his face.
"It's because of the clothes, brother." Lion Jie interrupted helplessly, pointing to the clothes Mordred had just chosen an hour ago, a cute vest with a navel exposed and a red leather jacket.
“It’s winter now. I told you that you would attract attention when you wear something like this, let alone the two of us standing by the coldest river.”
Mordred paused and felt he was wrong. His face turned slightly red and he said, "Can't I wear clothes like this in winter? I'm in good health! As for being by the river... By the way, winter swimming. I want to swim in winter, can't I? Boy? , If you want to exercise, your little exercise night run is meaningless. If you are a man, just swim in the river with me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and jumped into the river with a splash. Lion Jie held his forehead in melancholy. This rebellious knight was just a child.
He looked at Ji Xing who seemed to be stunned, spread his hands and said: "Don't pay attention to her, she has a lot of energy. Is my brother a nearby resident?"
"Hey! Come down!" The accompaniment of splashing water came from behind. Mordred flapped his hands like propellers, as cheerfully as a dog jumping into the water, and swam ten meters before turning back.
Ji Xing glanced sideways and then turned around: "Really...is there no problem? The temperature at night is only 2℃."
“It’s okay, it’s okay.”
Heroic spirits cannot feel the cold.
Shu Shijie waved his hand and said, "Brother, I haven't said anything yet. Are you a nearby resident?"
“Yeah, yes, I live by the river.” Ji Xing replied with a finger.
“By the river.” Lion Jie thought for a while.
The Holy Grail War will be fought in secret, and there are only a few places as big as Fuyuki City that are suitable for a battlefield, including the Einzbern Forest in the west, Enzo Mountain in the middle, and the seaside port in the east, and this is the last one.
But there’s no point in reminding him of this kind of thing. He can’t be asked to move in advance. That would be too strange.
His eyes changed, and his expression almost lost control. The first time he was alert, the second time it changed to confusion and surprise. He tried to ask calmly:
“Brother, that’s that on the back of your hand? It looks like a very strange and unique tattoo.”
"Uh... this?" Ji Xing raised his right hand with a natural expression, and said with a slight distress: "I don't know either. No one may believe it. This thing suddenly appeared in my hand at noon. I was planning to go there tomorrow. I’m going to ask my classmates.”
“…Haha, it appeared suddenly? How is it possible? Did I watch too much TV?”
Shu Shijie used laughter to hide his emotions, feeling a little confused inside. Isn't it? Just like this, I met a Red Master by chance? This kid looks like he's just a high school student, and there's no trace of his magic practice at all.
Excluding the possibility that his level of magic is higher than mine, then he will only be a rookie, a rookie with a very weak foundation in magic. He should not have summoned heroic spirits yet, or does not know how to summon heroic spirits at all.
Of course Lion Tribulation also thought in a dark direction, but there was no time.
Although the command spell appeared at noon, the rules of seven knights versus seven knights were changed only after he completed the summons, which was only two hours ago.
It makes no sense to summon the heroic spirit, lock yourself, arrange a chance encounter, or show up as a trap in person in this short period of time.
It can only be accidental.
Fuyuki is too small.
Looking at the young man across from him who said helplessly, "I said no one would believe it," Shishi Jie felt like he had a headache.
Even if you don’t go through the summoning ritual, after you are selected as the Master, you will probably complete the summoning of the Heroic Spirit by chance before the ‘time limit’. So, do you want to take advantage of it before then?
He is not that type of magician, and Mordred is probably not the kind of heroic spirit that "bullies the weak." The choice he would make would probably be to wait for the opponent to complete the summoning and then fight, right?
No, in the current situation where the camps are not so clearly divided, maybe this guy who knows nothing can be a potential ally? Although the Clock Tower requires everyone to conduct a camp battle first, those old yinbi may not be completely obedient.
As long as it has not been discovered, it has not been done. He is too familiar with this kind of thing.
After making many analyses, Lion Tribulation decided to explore one or two first.
He shook his head slightly and said: "To get back to the subject, although Mordred is very resistant to cold, we are indeed not Russians. Probably...we are all British, well, Great Britain."
"Britain...Mordred?" Ji Xing muttered as if he felt familiar.
"My name is Shishi Jiejieli. Although I look like this, I am actually only 32 years old. Hahaha. Many people don't believe that I am a kind person because of my appearance. It is really distressing. Ah." Lion Jie said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, little brother, the two of us couldn't find a suitable hotel because we arrived too late. Since you live nearby, do you have any good and cheap places to recommend?" "Hotel..." Ji Xing looked around and replied. Mordred, who was having fun in the river, looked at Lion Jie again and said with some hesitation: "My house is quite big. If you are willing to pay 40,000 yen, I can let you stay for one night."
"Oh?" Lion Jie said, "That being said, are you really not afraid that we are bad people?"
"She doesn't look like that." Ji Xing smiled: "And even though I'm very thin, I exercise every day and I'm very good at fighting."
Because you are a magician, do you think ordinary robbers don't matter? Haha, fighting is very good?
"What about your parents? You just live alone? Can you make the decisions?"
"They are no longer here." Ji Xing shook his head: "They died ten years ago. I have always lived alone, so it doesn't matter."
"No more... ten years ago?" Shishi Jie's expression changed slightly, and he looked back at the peaceful Weiyuan River: "Brother, your family didn't live here ten years ago, right? I remember seeing Ten Years News about the violent earthquake here?”
“Do even foreigners know?” Ji Xing nodded lightly: “Well…that was the time.”
Ten years ago, his parents were unfortunately affected and killed in the Fourth Holy Grail War. Ten years later, his son will be involved in the Holy Grail War without knowing anything. The topic has become a little heavier... Lion Jie thought to himself that he probably knew Ji Xing's wish to be chosen by the Holy Grail, and it felt a little heavier.
“Are you short of money?”
"It's okay for the time being, but it would be better if I had some extra income." Ji Xing smiled and said very sincerely: "Do you want to come? If you want to stay for several days, I can also provide breakfast and dinner for one day. One hundred thousand yen.”
“…Hey, the accommodation is only 40,000 yuan, why do you charge us 100,000 yuan including breakfast and dinner?”
“Eat it once and regret it later.”
“Ho? You sound very confident.”
Lion Jie Jieli didn't notice any problems at all. His reactions, conversations, and everything since meeting were all logical. Even if the other person was an Oscar-winning actor, it wouldn't be so easy to hide it from him, a magician who has experienced intrigues.
So he thought for a while, turned around and said, "Mordred, come up, I found a nice place for us to stay tonight."
"Huh? What?" Mordred swam towards the shore, holding onto the gap in the guardrail with both hands, and his short legs were still swinging in the water: "Winter swimming feels really good, I was blessed by the goddess of the lake. My father must not have had such an experience... Well, you said you found a good place to live?"
Shu Shijie pointed back with his thumb: "How is this little brother's house?"
“Huh?” Mordred was startled. Isn’t this inappropriate? Didn't he find an ordinary person to be a drag bottle? What to do if a fight breaks out?
Immediately after, she was relayed a lot of information by Shi Shijie through her consciousness. Her expression was also startled, and her bright eyes stared at Ji Xing.
The young man's eyes turned to the other side, as if he didn't dare to look at her, but it was probably for other reasons... Mordred looked down at his wet vest and the obvious female features in it, feeling unhappy. Pouting.
Leap hard and land again.
…
Half an hour later, Ji Xing’s bathroom.
Mordred, who was 'forced' to take a hot bath, wiped his wet hair in front of the mirror and muttered something.
"The war orphans who were affected by the war ten years ago have become the red master this time. I always feel that it will be very troublesome... Ah, forget it, it may not be the father's fault. What's more, even if it was the father who did it, it would be very troublesome... What does it have to do with me?"
When she thought of King Arthur, her eyes couldn't help but flash with hatred and hatred, as well as a loss and grievance that she wouldn't be aware of.
Clenched her white teeth and made a fierce expression. She put the wet towel on her shoulders, turned around and opened the bathroom door.
At the same moment, a black shadow suddenly hit her, making her almost draw her sword, and then she realized that it was a coat covering her.
"Although I've expected it, don't really come out naked. Whether you are a woman or a man, it is not polite in other people's homes." Shishi Jie said in a helpless tone like an old father dealing with his rebellious daughter: "Put it on, Saber .”
“...trouble, trouble.”
The large coat covered her small body, and Mordred said in disgust: "There is a strange smell...tobacco?"
"Just try to use it. Who asked you to take a sudden winter swim and get all your clothes wet? You can't put on your armor."
Mordred blushed slightly and changed the subject: "So, how's it going?"
"There is no problem at all." Shishi Jie nodded: "Although it has been carefully cleaned, very basic traces of magic can be seen. There is also a rough magic book hidden in his bedroom. It is basically just a beginner. There are not even beginner magicians left.
This is indeed his residence, and there are traces of living there all year round. The situation of his parents should be very different. It is easy to verify that our meeting with us tonight was indeed an accident. "
“Why are you so capable, my Master, investigating so many things in such a short time?”
Mordred praised: "Where are the people?"
The lion's chin pointed in the direction of the kitchen.
Behind the transparent glass door, the young man was skillfully turning off the heat to finish cooking, then picked up two pieces of heat-insulating cloth and turned around with an urn in hand.
When he saw Mordred, he paused and then said with a smile: "Did you wash it? Just in time, the soup is here.
Red bean and rice cake soup is good for repelling the cold and filling your stomach. You can try it for free this time. If you think it’s worth it, I’ll charge you 100,000 yen for breakfast and dinner tomorrow. "
Dispel the cold? Although it is not used, it is still thoughtful. Mordred sat down at the dining table swaggeringly, crossed his muscular and white calves, and filled a bowl. It smells delicious, let me try it...
“furfur—”
Two bites, chewing, silence.
exist by
Then under the astonished gaze of Lion Jie and the expected gaze of Ji Xing, Mordred made the sound of a wild boar eating!
Hello, isn’t it?
The lion was stunned. One of the half experts in the poison was not worried that Ji Xing was poisoned to him, so he sat down and tasted a bowl.
A silence.
Hello, is there really nothing in this that is prohibited by Japanese law? !
This boy’s cooking skills are absolutely EXCELLENT!
A pair of masters and slaves competed with each other for food.
Ji Xing showed a smile.
Since the discovery of Lion Jie Jieli and Mordred by the river tonight, all developments up to this point have been in line with his expectations.
