Matou Shinji Returns from Infinite

But to be honest, there are some things that the old man can't know.

"It's definitely that puppet, you can't go wrong."

Dirty inkstone rarely showed a sad face.

"That doll, what did you do?"

Shinji frowned frivolously.

Although I was already mentally prepared for revenge by Aozaki Orange, it is impossible to come to the door after noon and night?

Or is it that the local magician group finally found clues that foreign forces have sneaked into the jurisdiction?

"It's an amazing thing, but now it seems that it shouldn't be against the entire Yusan family, or...the old man should be grateful for the decline of the Matou family? Even foreign magicians are not hostile to us?"

At the end, Zuo Yan let out a sneer.

It sounds self-deprecating.

"That puppeteer's name is Aozaki Chengzi, a rare genius in the world. If the achievements that cannot be achieved by human technology are collectively called magic, then she will be able to accomplish something comparable to the resurrection of the dead for the second time, even if she is not a magician." The sorcerer'. Then, it was this man who attacked the heir to the Tohsaka family this evening."

"what?"

Shinji looked surprised.

What's the situation?Even though he was killed by his own hands, he went to find trouble with the Tohsaka family?

"It was located in the shopping street of Miyama-cho, and it was not the person who shot it, but an automatic doll."

Zuo Yan slowly revealed the truth he knew.

"Sakura was there at the time. According to Sakura, they came back late because of some school matters, but the Tohsaka family was worried about their eldest daughter, so they came out to find them in person."

"Although the other party is suspected of releasing water, but he was not killed by a single person with Sakura. Is it worthy of being the most qualified heir of the Tohsaka family? But the old man also suspects that the other party is deliberately using them to attract Tohsaka Tokiomi."

Shinji listened quietly, without hurried interruptions, and without too many emotional fluctuations.

Even though I heard that Sakura was attacked.

...at least on the surface.

Magic Ong continued to explain with a sullen face.

"Tohsaka Tokiomi is an excellent magician, and he rushed to the scene as soon as possible. The battle process was very short, and Tohsaka Tokiomi, who took the challenge in a hurry, did not carry any valuable attire. An enemy like Ou can't do much, although in the end, with the support of his disciples, they joined forces to kill the automaton. However, I am seriously injured and am currently being rescued in the hospital."

"The old man just came back from the hospital to learn about the situation, and the results are very bad. Although he is already contacting the church and the association, in the old man's opinion, he can't last a day."

"..."

Shinji looked strange.

He thought that this matter had nothing to do with him, but now it seems that the automatic dipole in the old man's mouth may be the one that Aozaki orange used to deal with Francesca, but he used the portal to send away .

If so, it would be no surprise that the automaton would attack Rin and Sakura, because Rin is a magician and possesses magical powers.

Aozaki orange should have a hostile recognition type mechanism attached to it.

After the doll was thrown out by him, he spent the afternoon wandering around Fuyuki City, looking for a target to kill.

Finding the Tohsaka family, the Matou family, or the Sanctuary Church, it would only be a matter of time.

Because there are not many people in Fuyuki City who have magic power.

As for how the automaton protected itself within Newton's rules...

Presumably, the rune gems installed in the body instead of internal organs also have an automatic repair function.

Puppets are imitating humans.

Human beings are regenerative, so whether it's the pursuit of perfection or ensuring the endurance that can shine in battle, it is a natural result to find a way to give it similar functions.

However, Shinji always felt that something was wrong.

Is it because it's too coincidental?

To say, indeed.

Tohsaka Rin and Sakura will go home together.

At the same time return late.

Tohsaka Tokiomi's side was even more coincidental.

Not because she noticed the footprints of foreign magicians, but simply because her daughter didn't go home immediately after school, so she went out to search.

But these say nothing.

Just like Zuo Yan said, even if Tohsaka Tokiomi didn't go out, the automaton would try to use Rin and Sakura as bait to lure him out of the mansion with a lot of barriers.

……and many more.

Shinji's pupils shrank.

wrong.

wrong.

This is not right.

He is not the same as Zuo Yan, he knows that the automatic dolls are wandering outside unintentionally, rather than deliberately targeting the Tohsaka family.

Encountering Rin and Sakura was just a coincidence, and the attack was a mechanism.

So, the water release is also a coincidence?

When did a tool man know how to 'release water'?

But actually.

If it hadn't released water, the two little girls would have no chance of surviving.

in other words.

The automaton releases water simply because it receives an order.

The problem is coming.

Who is giving it orders?

Aozaki oranges?

Or……

Shinji's eyes flickered, and after a while of silence, he asked:

"Sakura, how's the daughter of the Tohsaka family?"

"Sakura is fine, but she was frightened. The maids brought the meals in. The Tohsaka family's daughter suffered a little skin trauma, but she fell by herself, so she's fine. She's in the hospital with her father, after all, it looks like Not much time left."

Suddenly, the old man remembered something, narrowed his eyes and said:

"Oh yes, there is one more thing. When the old man went to the hospital to visit, Tokiomi Tosaka woke up once in the middle. The old man told him about your situation and proposed marriage. He said that he needed to see you and talk about it, so Go to the hospital early tomorrow."

Chapter 19. See the parents?

With all kinds of thoughts, I meditated all night.

It was not yet dawn, about six o'clock.

When the students and office workers were still obsessed with the hotbed, Shinji walked out of the house and got on the shuttle bus to the hospital.

The hospital where Tohsaka Tokiomi lives is undoubtedly the best hospital in the city.

There is no shallow connection with the Magic Association.

After all, the Holy Grail War often affects innocent people, and it is also important to have a convenient venue for post-processing.

A hospital is both a place of birth and a place of death.

The empty hall was even colder than outside.

There was a little numbness on the faces of passers-by.

Because the people who appeared in the hospital at this time were either doctors or nurses or family members who stayed in the hospital.

In the ceremonial venue where the death is entrenched, I witness the relatives gradually disappear.

Heavy thoughts like this filled every corner.

Shinji saw a familiar girl in the corridor outside the intensive care unit on the top floor.

She just lay casually on the bench.

He was covered with the coat of an unknown adult.

That's right, this person is Tohsaka Rin.

The crying girl who had only met yesterday was hit harder than Francesca's words.

The small sleeping face was full of exhaustion, and there were still visible tears.

Looking very pitiful.

Although Shinji deliberately slowed down, she seemed to sense someone approaching.

Dazedly woke up.

"……Good morning."

Shinji took the initiative to break the silence.

Some sleepy girls were startled when they heard the stranger's voice, and hurriedly sat up and looked at him with vigilant eyes.

"You are... the one who showed up at school yesterday."

"Yes, my name is Matou Shinji. Your father should have told you what this surname stands for. So even temporarily, you don't need to regard me as an enemy."

Shinji sat down on the chair.

The two were neither close nor far apart.

It's like a sign of their relationship.

Neither acquaintances nor strangers.

"I heard my grandfather say what happened yesterday, thank you for protecting Sakura."
