This is a small bungalow located in the old capital. Although it is only as tall as two floors and the floor space is not comparable to that of Tohsaka's house, the living room is full of people at the moment.

The corner sofa was full of people, but this was not enough. Many people still sat on the ground because they couldn't fit.

There are teacups corresponding to the number of people on the coffee table, and there are also various snacks and refreshments. In addition to the aroma of sweets, there are all kinds of noisy discussions in the air. And the tense atmosphere within a small range.

This kind of atmosphere has never been liked by Tohsaka Tokiomi, who upholds the usual elegance of the Tohsaka family, nor is he even good at handling it.

In fact, if he could, he wouldn't want to be here at all today, but helplessly, his wife and daughter decided on today's itinerary early in the morning, and even said that if he didn't come with him today...

You can only handle dinner by yourself.

——The usual elegance of the Tohsaka family has never been used in the kitchen.

So Tosaka Tokiomi could only follow his wife and daughter to this place that he would never want to come to if possible; he had to face the faces that he would never want to see again if possible .

His usually gentle and virtuous wife and lively and lovely daughter left him aside as soon as they entered the house, so now he can only sit in a corner of the sofa...

He stared at Emiya Kiritsugu who was also pushed aside by his wife and daughter.

In fact, just like his old opponent Tosaka Tokiomi, Emiya Kiritsugu also wasn't quite used to such a lively environment surrounded by powerful enemies back then.

But now it is no longer what it used to be, and I don’t know how many years have passed since the end of the "Holy Grail War". Now even the Holy Grail has been completely dismantled, and the conflicts and quarrels caused by the Holy Grail have basically been resolved one by one.

Now he has a wife and a daughter by his side, and although he still has some nostalgia for the unrealistic delusion of becoming a "partner of justice", he no longer has the strength and desire to realize it.

Although the mentality has changed, the gloomy atmosphere left over the years will not completely disappear.

Especially with Tohsaka Tokiomi sitting opposite, Emiya Kiritsugu felt that the two of them could restrain their desire to draw ||guns and use magic|| magic very well.

——mainly for the sake of their wives and daughters.

In fact, apart from Tosaka Tokiomi and Emiya Kiritsugu, there was also an adult man sitting there.

Matou Kariya brought Tohsaka Sakura—or today’s Matou Sakura back to Fuyuki City a few years ago. Although he didn’t want to see Tohsaka Tokiomi’s face again, Matou Kariya still Miss Tohsaka Aoi and Tohsaka Rin.

Just like what Zhou Jianmin said to him back then, he can ignore the existence of Tosaka Tokiomi, but he must remember that Tosaka Sakura's sister is still in Fuyuki City.

Just like many ancestors of the Tohsaka family, Tohsaka Rin was destined to go to the Clock Tower in London to study—but that place is the least accessible existence of Tohsaka Sakura.So to let Tohsaka Sakura and Tohsaka Rin meet, only before Tohsaka Rin goes to the Clock Tower to study...

Or after she returns from the clock tower.

Matou Kariya let Tohsaka Sakura, who is now grown up and sensible, make her own choice, and she chose the former.

It is not a coincidence that Tohsaka Rin studied in the same high school, and Kariya Matou also knew that if this happened, Tokiomi might soon find out that Tohsaka Sakura was taken away by him.

However, Tosaka Tokiomi, who was obsessed with adopting Tohsaka Sakura to the Matou family back then, did not take any action after knowing the news that Tohsaka Sakura came back with Matou Kariya in an accident, as if he had acquiesced Same thing, don't go looking for them any more trouble.

——But again, he didn't mean to bring Tohsaka Sakura back to Tohsaka's house.

Matou Kariya didn't know whether he was lucky or disappointed, but it wasn't until recently that he realized that this was the result of Tohsaka Rin's hard work.

Sitting in three corners of the sofa with Tosaka Tokiomi and Emiya Kiritsugu, Matou Kariya looked at the childhood sweetheart who was chatting with Emiya Kiritsugu's wife Irisviel not far away, feeling a little bit in his heart At least a little relieved.

Aoi Tohsaka and Irisviel naturally didn't miss the attitude of the three big men who were out of place in this atmosphere, but their husband and childhood sweethearts knew that these three people could sit in a room peacefully now, so It was already taking into account the relationship between them present, and did not involve the issue of the Holy Grail.

If it was in the past...

They are bound to fight endlessly.

In these years, because of her daughter and some other reasons, Aoi Tohsaka and Irisviel, who had a good relationship as if they had been best friends for many years, looked at each other, and after showing a knowing smile, they continued to talk about the past. The topic was discussed.

——Anyway, this is the best ending now.

Tohsaka Rin also feels that there is no better ending than it is now - her sister returned to her side, her parents are still alive and in good health as before, and the person she likes...

Tohsaka Rin secretly glanced in the direction of the kitchen, and then was caught by the keen Tohsaka Sakura and Elias Fir on the side.

"Ah! Just now Rin looked at the kitchen again! This is the first time today!"

"I, how can I have it!"

It looks like she's only about nine years old, but in fact she's a little older than the Tohsaka sisters, and Ilyasvier doesn't give Tohsaka Rin a chance to be vague, and even pulls an accomplice, "Obviously there is , Sakura, what do you think?"

Being a sister, Tohsaka Sakura naturally wants to stand on her sister's side.

It's just that it's extremely rare for my sister to be blushing because of embarrassment. Tohsaka Sakura covered her mouth and chuckled a few times, and then followed Eliasviel's words:

"Is my sister thinking about Mr. Aka?"

"Why even you, Sakura!" I didn't expect that my own sister would stand on the other side of Eliasviel and tease herself with that little girl. Rin Tohsaka was surprised and even more ashamed|| Embarrassed, "I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I said, I don't have any!"

"Sister, you're already starting to tie knots." Tohsaka Sakura smiled softly and kindly, but couldn't hide her dark belly. "Is it because you're too shy?"

When teasing Tohsaka Rin, Ilyasviel can form a battle line with Tohsaka Sakura at any time, "Even Sakura said that, Rin, just admit it!"

"Yes, sister," Tohsaka Sakura and Eliasviel looked at each other, "How about I invite Mr. Aka out for you?"

"...What do you want me to do?"

Before Tohsaka Rin had any reaction, a magnetic male voice suddenly inserted || into their topic.

The three little girls looked over to the source of the voice, only to see that Aka was wearing the home clothes they wore when they first came here, except that there was a red apron around the home clothes, and his hands were wearing heavy gloves. Gloves, holding a black baking dish.

From the perspective of the three little girls, it was impossible to see what was in the black baking dish, but the smile on the face of the man who claimed to be Aka for many years...

None of them missed it.

Ilyasviel and Tohsaka Sakura squeezed Tohsaka Rin who was sitting between them with a happy smile, and the teasing look could not be concealed.

The red-clothed hero looked at the three little girls blankly—although their current circumstances are completely different from their own back then, but the traces of Tohsaka Sakura and Eliasviel’s past existence are still there because of their Appeared one after another, and gradually appeared in my memory.

After Tohsaka Rin came out at that time, the blush on his face became more obvious.

Her hands tightly wrapped around a pillow, as if she wanted to use it to gain some sense of security, but her turquoise eyes couldn't stop glancing at the heroic spirit in red.

Tohsaka Rin's careful thinking couldn't hide Tohsaka Rin from Iliasviel at all, and now seeing that even the other party came out, Iliasviel was even more reluctant to let Tohsaka Rin go.

It looked like she was only nine years old, but her actual age was a mystery, and Ilyasviel blinked at the heroic spirit in red with her mother's red eyes, "We happened to be talking about Rin thinking about you."

Because of Ilyasviel's words, the crimson color on Tohsaka Rin's face became thicker, but the red-clothed hero looked at Tohsaka Rin with teasing eyes after being slightly stunned.

Tohsaka Rin was a little speechless by the eyes of the heroic spirit in red. Seeing that the eyes of Ilyasvier and her sister on the side were becoming less and less kind, she chose to fight back directly in anger.

The name "Red Devil" did not come by chance.

Who would have thought that she was about to say something just now, but the heroic spirit in red who was standing in front of them with a baking tray suddenly squatted down, and then took a piece of biscuit with her right hand that took off her glove, and put it into her mouth. .

Ilyasfier, who witnessed this scene with her own eyes, let out a low voice with malicious intentions, and successfully attracted the attention of several parents.

In contrast, Sakura Tohsaka's reaction was obviously a little more reserved—she covered her mouth, looked reddishly at her sister and brother-in-law who had sent them a wave of dog food on Christmas Eve. In addition to ridicule, there are also blessings.

Naturally, the elders of several families did not miss this scene - even if they missed it, they were still attracted by Ilias Feier's exclamation.

Among them, Emiya Kiritsugu didn't have much reaction to this, Matou Kariya had already known the relationship between Tohsaka Rin and this silver-haired man from Tohsaka Sakura.

It was Tohsaka Rin's own father, Tohsaka Tokiomi, who almost abandoned the Tohsaka family's elegance and ran away when he saw this scene, and interrupted the dog legs of that wild man who dared to moles his daughter...

In the end, he was stopped by his wife Tohsaka Aoi.

This gentle lady stopped her husband's imminent rampage in just three sentences:

"Rin has her own ideas, she won't suffer, and you can't beat Aka-kun."

——Tohsaka Tokiomi GG, I can't start again.

Just when the house was in chaos because of the action of the heroic spirit in red, some members of the Fourth Holy Grail War were about to turn this small bungalow upside down and even destroy it...

Doorbell rang.

The people in the room looked at each other in blank dismay, and these elite fighters on the battlefield of the Holy Grail War didn't know how to react at once; while the person who rang the doorbell outside the house couldn't wait for a long time to open the door, as if he was with that The doorbell was locked, and he began to ring the doorbell cheerfully with a special frequency.

"...The doorbell has been ringing for a long time, why don't you answer the door?"

Just when everyone didn't know how to react, the second figure came out of the kitchen, the red-haired boy was wiping his hands that were a little wet from cooking with his apron, and he passed by without knowing what happened. The living room of a Shura field, walked towards the entrance.

"Merry Christmas!"

After the door finally opened, Zhou Jianwen, who had trampled on the innocent doorbell for a while, smiled at the boy who opened the door, and raised the bag in her hand by the way, "This is a gift."

"Thank you, Miss Jianwen," the red-haired boy, Shilang and Zhou Jianwen, are quite familiar with each other. After receiving the gift from Zhou Jianwen, he smiled and turned sideways, letting Zhou Jianwen and Zhou Jianwen Veneto can take the lead in entering the house.

After Zhou Jianwen saw that no one was watching the door for a long time, she probably guessed that something happened in the house, but it was only after she changed her shoes and entered the house and came to the living room that she realized that she probably missed a good show.

"Long time no see, everyone," with the coat and scarf that she had taken off after entering the room hanging on her left arm, Zhou Jianwen glanced around the room, and then smiled at everyone.

"It seems that I was probably the last one to come."

Seeing Zhou Jianwen's appearance, the tense atmosphere just now disappeared without a trace.

That's definitely not because they are afraid of the evil star Zhou Jianwen!

It's simply because I feel that I'm an adult, and I shouldn't fall out at someone else's house at such a time.

real!It's definitely not because Zhou Jianwen is afraid that if Zhou Jianwen gets angry, he will take them all in one pot!

——This is a woman who killed Caster and the sea monster first, and then killed Gilgamesh!If they meet this girl, even if they have a few lives, they won't be enough to squander!

Seeing the adults in that room—either the members of the Yusan family or the representatives in the Holy Grail War, after seeing Zhou Jianwen, they immediately became honest, and the heroic spirit in red was the first to laugh out loud.

But he didn't dare to be too exaggerated, he just said after a few dry coughs, "Since everyone is up, we can almost start."

To resolve the embarrassing atmosphere, he ordered his adopted brother, Shi Lang, to bring wine bottles and glasses. After pouring a glass of red wine for the adults in the room who could drink, and fruit juice for those who could not drink , then used his eyes to signal Zhou Jianwen to say something.

Zhou Jianwen obviously didn't expect that this burden would fall on her head. After a short period of confusion, she had no choice but to obey the owner's wishes and raised her wine glass.

"So... let's toast to a wonderful Christmas without the Holy Grail."

"cheers!"

"so tired……"

"Yeah, I didn't expect this mission to go on for such a long time..."

"...Tsk."

Carrying the ninja bag they used for their missions, Kakashiban's four-member team was already exhausted after finishing an ordinary B-level mission and returning to the village.

The dust and all kinds of scratches on their bodies are not enough to prove their distress, and the bruises accumulated under their eyes after not having a good rest for many days are not enough to show their fatigue—although they are already exhausted, but They really can't say a lot of things.

It's not the first time that an ordinary B-level task has been turned into an A-level task. Anyway, over the years, Muye Village has heard about the bad luck of their seventh class.

Now everyone knows that teaming up with the seventh squad is very likely to do a mission that was not dangerous at all, and almost lost half of his life.

The bad luck of the seventh class became famous.

"... Thank you for your hard work." The two Chunin who were in charge of registering the entry and exit personnel at the entrance of the village also knew how unlucky Class Seven was. What problems encountered in the task again.

——If things go on like this, maybe the seventh squad can wipe out a few rebel groups with a few more low-level missions!

"I'll hand in the task report first," Hatake Kakashi nodded in response to the greetings of the two people at the door, and then said to his students, "You can disband on the spot."

"Wait, Kakashi-sensei!"

"Kakashi-sensei, please wait a moment."

"Wait a minute, Kakashi."

Just when Hatake Kakashi was about to leave, three children who had successfully passed the Chunin exam and became Chunin called Kakashi, "Are you free?"

When they finished saying this sentence in unison, let alone Hatake Kakashi who was stopped by them, even they themselves were a little confused.

"Wait a minute...it's nothing to worry about," Kakashi Hatake looked at them blankly, "What's the matter with you?"

The three children looked at each other for a while, and finally responded to their teacher in unison.

"Master Jianwen would like to invite you to our house for dinner."

"Itachi would like to invite you to our house for dinner."

"My dad would like to invite you to our house for dinner."

Hatake Kakashi finally experienced what it feels like to become hot all of a sudden. He looked at his students for a long time, and finally rubbed their messy hair one by one because of the task.

"Forget it, next time."

Saying so, his figure suddenly disappeared from the sight of the three children, even if they wanted to chase him, they didn't know where to start.

>>>

"I'm back." Returning to Masune's house exhausted after the mission, Haruno Sakura properly placed her ninja bag, and then went to take a hot bath.

After washing away all the tiredness, she got a notification that dinner was ready from the maid of the Manafune family, Shiran.

Giving a warm hug to Mrs. Jianwen who hadn't seen her for a long time, after Haruno Sakura sat in her seat, she ate dinner with an elegant demeanor.

Zhou Jianwen heard what she looked like when she came back, and she also understood what problems Class Seven encountered in this mission.

Anyway, this is not the first time, no matter what task Namikaze Minato assigns to the seventh class, it can always be carried out by these children into an A-level task in the end.

To be honest, their strength has indeed been comprehensively improved after fighting all kinds of traitors, but the bad luck of the seventh squad has also become famous in Konoha Village.

Namikaze Minato was also very strange about this, and indeed tried to assign them some tasks that would never cause problems.

But the result...

Needless to say, everyone knows it.

After quietly listening to the little girl's complaints and descriptions about this mission, and hearing her say that Kakashi declined the invitation, Zhou Jianwen did not show the slightest surprise from the beginning to the end, but let Haruno Sakura go to rest. I have other arrangements in the future.

>>>

"Uncle, you still have to go out so late?"

Hearing Uchiha Tanzuki, who came from home to eat dinner tonight, said so, Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke both showed unexpected expressions.

Uchiha Tanzu scratched his hair, obviously he didn't expect that his casual sentence would provoke such a big reaction from his two nephews, he nodded after being confused for a while, "Is there anything wrong?"

It was indeed very wrong, but neither the youth nor the boy said anything more.

Night tour and so on are indeed not in line with Uchiha Tanzu's usual style, but anyway, Uchiha Tanzu is not a child anymore, and probably nothing will happen.

……perhaps.

After eating the dessert after the meal, Uchiha Tanzuki greeted his brother, sister-in-law and two lovely nephews, and went out with his things.

In Konoha at night, there are places that are so lively that they will never turn off the lights until late at night-such as various taverns; there are also places that are so quiet that they are silent at night, let alone people, and I am afraid that even ghosts A place where no shadow can be seen.

As soon as Uchiha Sandalwood reached his destination, he saw that a pioneer had already appeared there.

"It's so late, why don't you go to bed?" Uchiha Tanzu threw his long hair behind him.

The cold wind in the deep winter made his cheeks hurt, even if his hair was tied up, it would occasionally be disheveled by the wind, and the already painful cheeks were even more painful and itchy, "Kakashi."

After dinner, Hatake Kakashi, who came to worship his old friend whom he hadn't seen for many days, looked at the figure with his right eye in a daze after hearing the voice. Uchiha sandalwood sticks in the Uchiha style long-sleeved top.

Didn't expect to be able to see the other party here, Hatake Kakashi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded in response to the other party, "Master Sandalwood."

This place is no stranger to anyone in Konoha.

But for the people of Konoha, all the living people who appear here basically have a purpose.

——That is to pay homage to relatives and friends who died on the job.

Uchiha Sandalwood shook the pot of wine in his hand at Hatake Kakashi, and then asked, "Would you like a drink?"

"In that case, why not add me as well."

A clear female voice came from a distance, and Zhou Jianwen, who was wearing a kimono and a cloak, walked towards them slowly. She also held a pot of wine in her hand, and Veneto beside her was holding a lunch box. "Isn't it interesting just to drink a lot?"

Kakashi Hatake was taken aback again, "...Master Jianwen."

Compared to Hatake Kakashi's astonishment, Uchiha Tanzu probably guessed that Zhou Jianwen would appear here tonight, and even laughed out loud when he heard Zhou Jianwen say this, "Sure enough, Jianwen wants to Be considerate."

He hooked Hatake Kakashi's shoulder, "Even Jianwen participated, Kakashi, you can't refuse, right?"

Facing Zhou Jianmin and Uchiha Tanzu, Hatake Kakashi didn't know how to refuse at all.

The people who appeared here came to pay homage to their relatives and friends who unfortunately died in the mission. This is the case for him, and the same is true for Zhou Jianmin and Uchiha Tanzu, who lost their teachers and friends in the war.

The dead cannot be resurrected, so the only thing left can do is to keep their living companions from stepping forward.

After receiving the wine glass full of wine from Tanzu, Hatake Kakashi, who had lost two companions in the war, was terrified, and drank the sake in one gulp. On the other side, Zhou Jianwen refilled another glass for herself.

"Staying in painful memories does not allow one to move on."

Zhou Jianwen raised her cup high, "Only by knowing the pain of losing a comrade-in-arms and making a determination not to let one's comrades die can one become stronger."

"To protect your comrades, become stronger, Kakashi."

Hatake Kakashi was silent for a while, and then raised the wine glass in his hand, "Ah... I will never let my companions die again."

Uchiha Tanzhu and Zhou Jianmin looked at each other, and then hit the wine cup in their hands with Kakashi's.

"Cheers to my mates—"

"cheers!"
