Lost Lord Ranbu

As the orthodox heir of the Tohsaka family, Tohsaka Rin has been well protected by his father since he was a child.Tohsaka Tokiomi is not stingy in teaching his daughter to learn magic, and he will not let the secrets among magicians affect her.

However, regarding the Holy Grail War, Tosaka Tokiomi obviously did not want his daughter to be exposed to the truth so early.

If Tosaka Tokiomi wins the final victory, he will use the Holy Grail to grant the magician's long-cherished wish, abandon this world, and go to the root; Dump into mud.

No matter which ending it is, he will never be able to reunite with his wife and daughter.

Even though he was aware of this, Tohsaka Tokiomi chose to join the battle without hesitation. This is the tragedy of magicians.

The future heir of the Tohsaka family, Tohsaka Rin, was still young. Tohsaka Tokiomi sent her out of Fuyuki City without much explanation, and only told his wife and daughter to live in the outer city for a week, and come back when the Holy Grail War is over and the situation is stable.

Based on the above reasons, Tohsaka Rin has insufficient understanding of the cruelty of the Holy Grail War.Therefore, Rin Tohsaka ran into Atsushi Nakajima, who was suspected to be an enemy hero, and instead of choosing to run away immediately, he boldly communicated with him in order to pursue a common goal.

That's right—

Atsushi Nakajima was mistaken for a native Japanese hero.

This is understandable, the young Tohsaka Rin does not yet have the ability to distinguish heroic spirits from real humans, and he only knows a little about the Holy Grail War.The first time I heard the name "Atsushi Nakajima", Rin Tohsaka naturally understood that it was the Japanese writer Atsushi Nakajima who died more than 50 years ago, not to mention that the other party also showed unreasonable healing power!

Atsushi Nakajima is not a heroic spirit, so what could it be?

Although compared with those heroic spirits who are accustomed to running on the battlefield, the heroic spirits transformed by Wenhao seem to be weaker, but the heroic spirits belonging to Japan have bonuses in fighting in the local area. Rin Tohsaka is not very surprised to see Atsushi Nakajima Such a Heroic Spirit appears.

However, the difficulty of summoning famous ancient heroic spirits and summoning modern heroic spirits is different.

Modern relics are easy to find. There are still many relics left by Japanese writers like Atsushi Nakajima who have died for more than 50 years, and they can be easily summoned casually.What's more, magicians value mystery. Nakajima Atsushi's mystery is not enough, and he can't gain the upper hand in battle. There will be no master who can't think of calling such a heroic spirit, right?

The master of Atsushi Nakajima must have no money, no background in a magician family, and even no tactics.

Tohsaka Rin thought so, but considering the good temper of the white-haired boy in front of her, she didn't say the hurtful words rudely.

Of course, Atsushi Nakajima, who was mistaken for a third-rate Heroic Spirit, didn't know Tohsaka Rin's thoughts.

He was very puzzled, why was he regarded as a heroic spirit as soon as he reported his name?Could it be because of his own abilities that he looks like a summoned heroic spirit?

Nakajima Atsushi had long equated Heroic Spirit with a supernatural body like Alice. At this time, it was not impossible to understand Tohsaka Rin's meaning, so he had to patiently explain his identity, but Tohsaka Rin refused to believe it.

"I'm going to save Qinyin!" she said stubbornly.

Atsushi Nakajima disapproved of Tohsaka Rin's behavior very much: "That person is dangerous, we can just go, and I will definitely help you bring your friends out."

Rin Tohsaka, who didn't trust him, raised the pocket watch in his hand angrily: "Even if you don't take me there, I can find the place by myself!"

Atsushi Nakajima was a little overwhelmed.

Although Atsushi Nakajima is a member of the frightening port mafia, in fact the boy's heart is very soft, and only when facing the enemy will he show the cold and ruthless side of the white death.

Tohsaka Rin is not an enemy. Atsushi Nakajima treats her like an ordinary child, and thinks that the other party's idea of ​​mustering up the courage to rescue his friend is commendable, but his behavior is too impulsive.

At this time, sending Tohsaka Rin home is the best choice, but the girl is unwilling, Nakajima Dunna has nothing to do with her.The only girl he is familiar with is Izumi Kyoka, but Kokageka and Tohsaka Rin are not of the same type, and the way of getting along is completely useless as a reference.

Faced with this situation, Atsushi Nakajima was a little overwhelmed, he hesitated for a moment before saying to her: "After seeing your friends, you must obediently go home."

"Of course!" Tohsaka Rin agreed, after all, she didn't want her father to know that she had sneaked to Fuyuki City.

Atsushi Nakajima, who decided to take the girl there, could only pray in his heart, hoping that the prisoner would not do anything to those children. Akutagawa had better not be too rough, otherwise the bloody tragedy would be seen by the children. great.

Nakajima Atsushi squatted down with his back to Tohsaka Rin, beckoning her to climb up.

The way Heroic Spirit travels is different from ordinary people. The man in black who just left just walked over the wall.Since someone was willing to help her, Tohsaka Rin climbed onto Nakajima Atsushi's back without much hesitation.

When reaching out to hug the other party's neck, Tohsaka Rin felt a circle of hard things under the boy's black high collar, which seemed to have some sharp protrusions.

"What is this?" She couldn't help being a little confused, and she didn't take off the collar of the other party out of politeness.

Atsushi Nakajima didn't answer, just reminded in a low voice: "Hurry up."

I saw the white-haired boy bowed his body, and his posture changed obviously.His limbs turned into animal claws at some point, and his skin was covered with a layer of fur.This change not only occurred in the limbs, but even the body became the unique appearance of beasts.

If an uninformed passer-by sees this scene, they will definitely exclaim—this is a carnivorous white beast that should never appear on the street. It is as big as a small car.

Rin Tohsaka finally understood what the hard ring was.

On the white tiger's thick neck, if you peel back its fur, you can see a metal collar with barbs.The hook was nailed into the flesh like a stake, and there was faint blood oozing out, and because of its strong healing power, flesh wounds would heal quickly, such an approach would only continue to inflict pain on the white tiger.

Like... for taming animals.

"this is--"

Rin Tohsaka couldn't bear to watch.

"I'm leaving, you sit still." Baihu uttered.

The white beast carried a child and leaped lightly into the deep alley, its limbs fell on the ground without footsteps, and it perfectly blended into the darkness.

The white tiger's speed is very fast, even in a dark alley full of debris, it can maintain lightning speed, and it can also sneak quietly without knocking over anything.

——Is this the power of Heroic Spirits? !

Tohsaka Rin was afraid of being thrown off, so he didn't dare to say a word, and stuck tightly to Baihu's back.

The white tiger was heading in a very clear direction, like a wild beast tracking its prey, avoided detours, and rushed straight to a secluded path.

Within a few minutes, he stopped in front of a door.

The door was only ajar, and there was a faint smell of rust in the stagnant air.

Rin Tohsaka slid off the white tiger, and the pointer of the pocket watch in her hand was still spinning erratically. She stumbled forward and pushed the door open.

The room was pitch-black, with no lighting fixtures, only the signal lights in the corner glowing indistinctly red.

"So you still have a helper." In the darkness, a frivolous voice sounded, "Come and visit my artwork together? Ahh, you can't take it away if you want to. My master and I took a lot of effort to catch it. .”

"Ahem..." The other coughed lightly.

Rin Tohsaka's eyes finally adapted to the dark environment. She saw two men standing facing each other indoors, as if they were confronting each other.Among them, one is the black-haired young man wearing a black coat who was with Atsushi Nakajima just now, and the other is the prisoner of the missing child case.

In the corner of the room, there were quite a few young children lying down crowded together, neither crying nor making trouble.Rin Tohsaka was not sure if something happened to them, and he didn't dare to go forward to check their situation rashly, standing at the door a little at a loss.

The orange-haired man who spoke just now glanced at her, and found that the person standing outside the door was actually a little girl. He couldn't help being slightly surprised: "What, it's just a child."

He suddenly laughed happily.

"Well, I like children the most!" He waved his arms excitedly, his fingers seemed to be playing something in the air, "Whether it is made into a human piano or a human skin book, they are all excellent works of art! Na na, have you heard it? The sound of children screaming is awesome!"

There was an unpleasant malice in the air, almost suffocating.

The orange-haired man had had enough of laughing, and suddenly fell silent.

"Come on, come to me now? Since you have already come to the door by yourself..." He stretched out his hand to Tohsaka Rin, wearing a bracelet on his wrist, emitting a faint purple light.

The pocket watch pointer in Tohsaka Rin's hand spun crazily again-that bracelet is obviously a magic prop that can hypnotize children, so that it can lure a large number of children here without alarming anyone.

Tohsaka Rin was terrified.

"Don't come!" she exclaimed.

Just the blink of an eye—

Something, like a gust of wind, swept past him.

The counter was overturned, and the sound of glass shattering sounded. Tohsaka Rin heard an angry and frightened cry from the man who spoke in a frivolous tone just now, followed by the muffled sound of his body hitting the ground.

"It's actually a tiger!"

Being pinned to the ground by the white beast, unable to move, the fangs and orange pupils of the beast are in front of him, and the smelly breath spews out on his face, the man named Usaki Ryunosuke is still not close at hand Terrified of his death, he has no other emotion than wonder.

He was even a little excited.

This white tiger is very beautiful. If you kill it and use its fur as a blanket, it should be very warm, right?If you use the props given to him by the master, even ferocious beasts can be hypnotized, when the time comes...

His thoughts just bubbled up, and his arm felt cold.

"Huh?" He tilted his head suspiciously.

An arm appears in the field of vision.

On the back of the hand was the red engraving called Command Seal, and on the wrist was a purple bracelet—oh, it turned out to be his own arm!

It turned out that his arm was cut off!

Yusheng Ryunosuke was a little stunned.

A black leather boot stepped on his severed arm and crushed it, like stamping out a cigarette butt.

"Ahem..." The young man in black coughed again. He didn't say much, but his tone was very cold, "If it wasn't for Mr. Ranpo, your neck would be cut off next time."

so cold.

Yusheng Ryunosuke thought.

The blood flowing from his body quickly gathered into a pool of blood.

He was curious, very curious.

Could it be that kind of red liquid flowing from his body?

It's a pity that it's too dark here to see the color of the blood clearly.

Before he became unconscious, he heard two people talking——

"Renhu, how long are you going to stay on him? Useless guy, if you want to really suppress the enemy's actions, you have to cut off all their escape routes. Didn't you see that this man has a command spell?"

"Is he actually a participant in the Holy Grail War? To do such a thing... He can't die yet, he has to be brought to Mr. Ranpo for judgment."

"Humph……"
