I'm Shenji, what are you doing?
Chapter 22 The disappearing stigmata
As one of the two major mysterious forces with influence all over the world, the Holy Church possesses terrifying energy in both the secular and mysterious worlds.
In less than an hour after receiving Justeza's call, Father Li Zheng had completed the investigation and disguised the scene as a fire.
A few hours later, the morning newspapers and TV stations added a piece of news: "Early this morning, a fire broke out in a house in the northwest of Fuyuki City, causing the house to collapse and killing three people. Citizens are called on to pay attention to fire prevention."
The time when the morning paper was delivered happened to be breakfast time at the Matou family.
Having finished explaining the matters at hand, Heya finally had a few days of leisure while drinking black tea and reading the newspaper.
"The fire burned down all the houses. It's really miserable. It seems that there hasn't been such a big fire in Fuyuki City for many years."
Sakura put down her knife and fork in a ladylike manner and wiped her mouth: "It's okay, Dad. This kind of thing will never happen in our family. My brother and I will use the magic taught by our master to put out the fire."
Heya smiled and said, "Sakura is really reliable, so I'll leave it to you."
Shenji then said: "But Sakura, although fire fighting is important, fire prevention is more important. No matter how small a fire is, it will cause losses. As long as the fire cannot burn, there will be no losses."
"I understand, brother." Sakura nodded seriously. In the entire Matou family, the one she admires most is her brother, who is one year older than her. She will listen and think carefully to what his brother says.
"I'm full." Kariya, who was sitting opposite the brother and sister, put down his chopsticks and stood up, "Go out for a while and come back before lunch."
Heya closed the newspaper and asked casually: "Where are you going?"
"Fire scene." Kariya said as he picked up his coat from the hanger behind him.
Heya quickly understood his brother's thoughts: "Do you suspect there is something wrong with this fire?"
"Well, every news after the start of the Holy Grail War may be a disguise. Just in case, I'm going to verify it." After summoning the servant, Kariya has fully entered the state.
Shinji interjected: "I don't recommend that uncle go to the fire scene."
Kariya paused: "Why?"
Shenji put down his knife and fork and said calmly: "When I heard the news, I had the same idea, and other masters might have the same idea. If this time passes, uncle may be attracted by other The Master is keeping an eye on me, and the fact that my uncle has returned to the Matou family will attract the attention of all parties."
Tsuruya suggested: "Well, instead of going to the scene, go to the Fuyuki City Fire Department. I have business dealings with the Fire Department. Kariya, you and I will treat the director to a cup of tea. It has just been a few hours, if it is a fake fire scene, There will be loopholes in the procedure. If the other party doesn’t cooperate, Kariya, use magic to make them cooperate.”
"What a good idea." Yanye's eyes lit up, "That's it."
Just as Tsuraya and Kariya were about to go out, Tokiomi Tosaka received a call from Kotomine Rimasa.
"Based on the traces left at the scene, it can be determined that one of the parties involved in the battle was Caster. The unidentified Master did not lie about this. However, the Master consciously eliminated his own information before leaving. The Servant is unknown and is good at The magic is unknown, and the only thing that can be determined is that this person has laid a large-scale barrier around the scene, and he is an experienced and cautious magician."
After listening to Kotomine Rimasa's analysis, Tokiomi Tosaka fell silent, and after a while he spoke, not to the communication gem, but to Kotomine Kirei who was standing in front of the desk: "What do you think? "
"The masters confirmed so far include you, your teacher, Kariya Matou of the Matou family, Kenneth Elmloy Archibald, a first-class instructor from the Clock Tower, and the son-in-law of the Einzbern family. Emiya Kiritsugu.”
When he said the last name, Kotomine Kirei's eyes narrowed slightly.
He had heard of this name for a long time, and the detailed information was only obtained from Tokiomi Tohsaka a few days ago.
Emiya Kiritsugu was once a murder tool affiliated with the Magic Association. He was a notorious magician killer who was good at hunting down magicians using methods that were most inconsistent with magician rules.
Dropping bombs in front of the public; shooting down a plane with many passengers; and even indiscriminate large-scale terrorist attacks. Although there is no definite evidence, from the analysis of the collected intelligence, it is most likely that he did it.
Nine years ago, such a man became the son-in-law of the Einzbern family, which never communicated with the outside world. It once caused a lot of controversy in the Magic Association. However, the only person who saw through the truth of this matter was Matou Zouken. That old monster is Tohsaka Tokiomi, the head of the Tosaka family.
The magicians of the Einzbern family, who only have deep knowledge in alchemy, are not good at fighting. This is the main reason why they failed in the past Holy Grail War. In order to obtain the Holy Grail, they need foreign aid who is good at fighting, and no one is more suitable than the Magician Killer.
This choice of Tosaka Tokiomi is understandable, but the magician Emiya Kiritsugu, who does not abide by the rules of a magician and has no pride as a magician and just uses magic as a tool, makes Tosaka Tokiomi feel proud of being a traditional magician. Disgust, it was this disgust that aroused Kotomine Kirei's curiosity.
Kotomine Kirei calmed down and continued his analysis: "Matō Kariya has only received magic training for one year, and he does not have the ability to arrange such a large-scale barrier. Even if Emiya Kiritsugu had the ability, he would not arrange such a barrier. He would choose to drive out the entire residential area. Lord Almeloy is a proud man and would not inform his father in such a way."
Lord is the exclusive title of several ancient families that rule the Magic Association. Kenneth is the ninth generation head of the Archipelud family, one of the ancient families. He has the strength and fame commensurate with his status. The most powerful magician in the Holy Grail War.
"Only one of the two other than Master Caster is left."
"As I thought, it seems that there are quite high-level magicians coming to participate in this Holy Grail War." Tokiomi Tosaka was satisfied with the performance of his disciples. "As the managers of the spiritual veins, the Tosaka family's every move They will all be monitored by other Masters, so Kirei."
"My master." Kotomine Kirei bowed his head respectfully.
"I need you to collect information on the two masters on my behalf. The more detailed the better."
"Yes, my teacher."
Looking at Kotomine Kirei's leaving figure, Tokiomi Tosaka sighed.
"If only your stigmata hadn't disappeared two years ago."
Kotomine Kirei had obtained the qualification to participate in the war three years ago, and was the first among all the candidate masters to be marked with a stigma. It was precisely because of this incident that Tokiomi accepted Kirei as his disciple, hoping to combine the power of the two masters to capture the Holy Grail.
But when Kirei studied with Tokiomi for a year, his stigmata suddenly disappeared. This incident has upset Tosaka Tokiomi to this day.
"Perhaps the servant you summoned was too powerful, so the Holy Grail deprived Kirei of his stigmata." Risei's voice sounded at the right time.
Thinking of his servant, Tokiomi felt much better.
As long as he is around, the Holy Grail will definitely be in his possession.
