Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

Time also flies by here.

"Are there more and more Red World Apostles coming to Misaki City recently?"

Shana, Ma Qionglin, Tanaka Eita, Sato Keisaku and Emiya Shirou were sitting in the cafe, all frowning and thinking.

Ever since they had eaten Shirou Emiya's ingenious and delicious cake, this cafe had basically become a gathering place for them.

After all, they would all choose to come here to buy a cake, and Shirou Emiya worked in the afternoon, and Shana and Majonline also met frequently.

"I always feel that something bad will happen. There have never been so many Red World apostles rushing towards one place."

Marjorie also rubbed her forehead a little tiredly.

At first, a Red Apostle appeared in Misaki City one day, and Marion Lin, Emiya Shirou, and Shana were able to deal with it alone.

However, because Shana arrived in Misaki City earlier, Emiya Shirou and Shana solved most of the problems together.

But as time went on, two a day, three a day, four a day.

Sometimes there would even be several Red World Apostles coming at the same time.

Although there seem to be only a few of them, with the strength of Shana, Marion, and Emiya Shirou, they can all be dealt with by one person.

But things are not that simple. Some Red World Apostles have strange abilities, and some Red World Apostles will come with their own phosphorus.

So in reality, Shana and the others faced more than just single-digit enemies.

Some Red World apostles came to the city with a large amount of phosphorus, and Shana and the others had to spend a lot of energy to eliminate these phosphorus heading towards the city.

In recent times, those Red World apostles have arrived almost in batches, giving them a headache.

Those who don’t know better think that this is the most important combat headquarters for outsiders.

The external dormitory is a place where Fire Mist warriors can exchange information, rest, eat, and stay. There will also be many humans helping out.

However, in a small place like Misaki City, there are no external accommodations.

Anyway, Marion Lin, Shana and Emiya Shirou have been almost exhausted recently.

There wasn't even a break.

Those Red World apostles are not like the ghosts in Demon Slayer World, who only move during fixed time periods. They can invade Misaki City around the clock.

In the dead of night, when Emiya Shirou and the others were resting, there was no reason why the Red World Apostles should not come.

Even if they have such inhuman physiques, they cannot withstand such high-frequency attacks.

What's more, no Red World Demon King has appeared for such a long time.

It even made Emiya Shirou and the others feel the atmosphere of conspiracy.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Tanaka Eita also spoke like this.

"The firework display will start soon."

Chapter 271: Chance Encounter

Under the setting sun, Emiya Shirou was carrying a small bag of beef, and Shana grabbed the pineapple bun in her hand, biting it carefully and attentively.

Shana couldn't walk when she saw the pineapple bun, so Emiya Shirou could only smile bitterly and help Shana buy a freshly baked pineapple bun.

If you put a pineapple bun under a cage like a chicken, would you be able to catch Shana?

Emiya Shirou was thinking very divergently.

And a familiar voice that made Shirou Emiya come out of this strange thought.

"That's it, Emiya-senpai!"

Following the sound, Emiya Shirou looked forward.

It was an ordinary-looking high school student wearing a school uniform, with brown hair and a handbag in his hand.

Next to him is a woman who is also wearing a school uniform and has short brown hair. She looks a bit conservative, but makes people think she is quite cute. She wears a white hair accessory.

"Yuji?"

Emiya Shirou said with some uncertainty. Although not long had passed since the time when Emiya Shirou met Sakai Yuji, too many things had happened recently.

Moreover, he himself had a lot of things to do, so he immediately forgot that the real zero-hour mystery was Yuji Sakai.

"torch?"

Shana also stopped and frowned to look at the man in front of her who was greeting Emiya Shirou.

As a Fire Mist Warrior, Shana can clearly feel that Yuuji Sakai is just a torch.

But how could a torch have such strong autonomy and such a strong sense of existence?

"It's Mystis"

Because Shirou Emiya had been thinking about the Noble Phantasm of Zero Hour Mystery, Shana quickly realized that she immediately thought of Mystis who stored the Noble Phantasm.

Sakai Yuji trotted up to Emiya Shirou with great enthusiasm.

For Yuji Sakai, Shirou Emiya was the benefactor who saved his life and the only person who knew the existence of that world.

People around Sakai Yuji would never believe that kind of thing. He could only swallow what happened in that bright red world in his heart.

You know, Yuji Sakai didn't know how to explain it because he suddenly disappeared and then came back so late.

His mother was so anxious that she called the police. After Yuji Sakai's hesitant lies, she managed to return to normal life.

Since that time he entered that bright red world, Sakai Yuji's life has often experienced that kind of situation.

In that world, everyone except him was suspended.

At first he started to be as scared as before, but every time basically the bright red world only lasted for a while and then ended.

There were no scary dolls. Gradually, Sakai Yuji got used to this kind of life.

I even feel good about this kind of thing happening. As long as no puppet monsters appear, Sakai Yuji can do a lot of things in such a suspended world.

Such as studying, exercising, cleaning and other things.

In Yuji Sakai's mind, isn't this just an extra period of time out of thin air?

That doesn't mean that I have more study time than other students.

As a Miyoshi student, Yuji Sakai doesn't have any weird ideas, but he will naturally not let go of such an opportunity to improve himself.

But other than that, he still feels lonely, because he is the only one who knows that kind of world, and he can't share it with the people around him.

That's why Yuji Sakai seemed so enthusiastic and excited when he met Shirou Emiya.

"Does Emiya-senpai live near here?"

Sakai Yuji asked Emiya Shirou excitedly. He couldn't wait to tell Emiya Shirou about the achievements he had made in that bright red world.

The most obvious thing is his ever-increasing performance.

Sometimes the exam time is more than half longer than others.

"In the apartment not far ahead."

Emiya Shirou pointed forward.

"Apartment? I remember that the only apartments around here are————"

Sakai Yuji soon found out where Emiya Shirou lived.

"Hey, Emiya-senpai doesn't live with your parents?"

He was a little surprised and asked Emiya Shirou. He didn't expect that Emiya-senpai, who was about the same age as him, had already gone out to live alone.

No wonder he looks so mature and reliable.

"My adoptive father has passed away."

Emiya Shirou shook his head and answered Sakai Yuuji. Although this was not his own world, Emiya Shirou still answered him according to his own situation.

"sorry!"

Sakai Yuji quickly realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly apologized with a half-bow.

"fine."

Emiya shook his head, indicating that he didn't care much about this matter. After all, the matter was over, and Emiya Shirou had already looked away.

At that time, he was doing high jump alone in school to release the sad emotions in his heart.

I hope no one saw it at that time. After all, I didn’t know how many times I failed before I jumped over that hurdle.

After I calmed down, the sky was already filled with stars.

Shana, who was beside Emiya Shirou, was also a little dazed.

This seemed to be the first time she heard about Emiya Shirou's past.

"Who's the one next to you?"

Emiya Shirou also quickly changed the topic. He looked at the very reserved girl behind Sakai Yuji and asked aloud.

Although he and Sakai Yuji knew each other, it didn't seem good to just talk to each other like no one else was around.

"My name is Yoshida Kazumi. I am, yes, yes, a classmate of Yuji Sakai."

Kazumi Yoshida's face was slightly red, and she stood behind Yuji Sakai cautiously, as if she had something she wanted to say but didn't say it out loud.

Afterwards, Sakai Yuji and Yoshida Kazumi also looked towards Emiya Shirou.

"Shana"

Shana's response was brief, as if she didn't intend to communicate too much with the two people in front of her.

Sakai Yuji could only laugh and scratch his head.

Shana's attitude towards strangers is relatively cold.

She had almost the same attitude when facing Marion Lin, not to mention Yuji Sakai and Kazumi Yoshida, whom she had never met before.

Even when Emiya Shirou was getting along with her, Shana would often respond to him with such short sentences.

It was only when she was teaching Emiya Shirou that Shana would talk more.

Compared to Shana, Emiya Shirou's learning speed was much more normal. When he was in junior high school, he was only at an average level and not very outstanding.

Naturally, his studies were not up to Shana's level, and he would often be ridiculed by Shana, but Emiya Shirou knew that Shana didn't really want to ridicule him.

Every time after taunting her, she would teach her more seriously. Emiya Shirou was used to Shana's speaking habits.

"After completing the transformation of Zero Hour Mystery, let's find some time to slow down the Noble Phantasm in Yuji Sakai's body."

Emiya Shirou thought this in his heart. As an ordinary person, Sakai Yuuji, Emiya Shirou was also very worried that he would be targeted by the Red World Apostle.

Especially during this time when the Red Apostles appear frequently.

At this time, in the box under the bed in Emiya Shirou's rental house, there were hundreds of scattered zero-hour puzzles.

These are the results of Emiya Shirou's continuous efforts these days.

Chapter 272 Will Emina

"If you have a chance, go to the coffee shop where I work and try the coffee I brewed myself."

Emiya Shirou responded to Sakai Yuuji with a smile.

"Okay! Emiya-senpai, goodbye."

Sakai Yuji happily waved goodbye to Emiya Shirou and left in the direction where Emiya Shirou came.

Emiya Shirou also waved goodbye to them enthusiastically.

"The treasure in the body of the Mistis named Yuji Sakai should be the real lost child of zero hour."

After Yuji Sakai and Kazumi Yoshida left, a steady voice came from Shana.

Although Kazumi Yoshida was very surprised by what Yuji Sakai and Shirou Emiya talked about, she couldn't understand what Yuji Sakai was explaining.

But as the one who was most familiar with the seal, Shana naturally knew what the red world Yuji Sakai described to Shirou Emiya was.

In addition to the abundant power of existence in Yuji Sakai, Alastor easily deduced that the treasure in Yuji Sakai was the real lost child of zero hour.

After all, the treasures that can replenish the power of existence and allow Mistis to move freely in the seal can be said to be very few, and the latest answer is in front of him.
