Chapter 20: Two Strange Women

The voice was low and masculine, but it was still obvious that it was a female voice.

The voice of the reply was slender and weak, with a bit of girlish delicateness. There is no doubt that this is the voice of the woman that Shinji and the others followed before, and the former is probably a veteran of cleaning up the aftermath for her, and the enchantment of the apartment is likely to be from her.

The two mysterious women in the room did not notice that anyone was eavesdropping and continued the conversation.

"Where are you going again?"

"Hmm. ”

"I knew it was going to be like this. You're back today later than yesterday, isn't that kid back?"

"Nope. The slender voice showed a little disappointment, "I just want to see more of his home and the city he lives in." ”

"You're so stupid and cute. "But, you know, we are no longer human, and we are not destined to get along with him as we used to." ”

"Well, I know. The slender voice revealed a hint of loneliness, "I just want to look at him quietly like this, and not let him know that I exist." ”

"Your attitude leaves me speechless. I didn't see that that little ghost had such a lot of magic in the first place. Not only did he marry such a beautiful wife, but he also had such a stupid woman who was willing to give, and I heard that he seemed to have other womenβ€”is this still the ruthless little imp I knew?"

"No, that's just his disguise, it's not like that in his heart. ”

"Why don't you have any humor at all, it's tiring to live like this. I probably still know what that little ghost thinks, he is cold on the outside, but he is actually a naΓ―ve idealist on the inside. I always thought that he would drown with his ideals like this, but I didn't expect that he would get married and give birth to a beautiful daughter. Speaking of which, her wife and her daughter have a lot in common with us, maybe we are not that far apart. ”

"Perhaps, he may not ostracize us, but it is impossible to do as before. No human being can stand us looking at them with the eyes of food, and I can't stand to look at him with such eyes. ”

"Here it is again, here it is again, I just say. Even if we don't care about the gap between humans and vampires, that lord won't allow us to make trouble. It's not an easy city, and there are several places that give me a sense of danger, and even hiding in the barrier makes me feel like someone is staring at me. If there is a lapse in that adult's plan because of personal emotional problems, then we are really sorry for the second life that the adult has given us. ”

"I know, I know. The slender voice grew weaker and weaker.

"It's good to know. The deep voice also turned soft, "It's almost time, it's time to eat, I'll go get the blood bag." Although you just said that, you refuse to suck blood directly from humans, and you still have a trace of fantasy in your heart when you keep using blood bags. ”

"Aren't you the same? He's our only relative. ”

"yes. ”

Calm returned to the dark room. Fog Paint, which exists in the form of an imaginary body, quietly exits the room and joins up with his companions.

"Now, Shinji, what are we going to do next? Do you want to arrest them?"

"What, you really want to catch them?" Shinji asked rhetorically, just now he was the one who informed Kiri-e through his mental power to let her leave.

"I don't want to. "They don't seem to be the kind of vampires who see humans as food and lower creatures. ”

"There are good people and bad people, and it's the same with vampires. Although there are not many of them, there is indeed a small percentage of vampires who choose to hide in the shadows of humans and live in harmony with them. The biggest characteristic of this group of people is that they do not directly suck blood, do not make servants, and their demand for blood is mostly met in places such as blood packets, hospitals, and blood donation stations. When encountering such harmless vampires, most magicians or church agents will choose to turn a blind eye, unless there are some extremists who advocate the extinction of vampires. ”

"That's why you didn't arrest them?" asked Kiri-e after listening to Shinji's explanation.

"This is only a secondary reason. The main reason is that these two women are very likely to be related to Emiya Kiritsugu, and the relationship is not shallow. Now that Kiritsugu hasn't come back yet, I can't make a rash move. ”

This is the biggest concern in Shinji's heart. Over the years, he and Kiritsugu have been working together happily, and the next Holy Grail War will need to continue to work together. Although he was curious about the identity of the owner in the mouths of the two women, and what he wanted to do in Fuyuki, Shinji held back for the time being. He didn't want to create something that would cause the relationship with Kiritsugu to break down and adversely affect the Holy Grail War.

Regarding the identities of the two women, Shinji is also very curious. According to what he knew, all of Kiritsugu's relatives died, except for those who lived in Emiya's house. Of those who died, some did become vampires, but only one, not two.

That person's name is Xia Lei, a girl on a small island in Southeast Asia, and she is Kiritsugu's childhood sweetheart and first love. Because he secretly drank the unfinished potion made by Kiritsugu's father, Emiya Juxian, and became a ghoul (the stage before the Dead Apostles), he attracted the vicarious of the Templar Church and the executor of the Magic Society, causing the entire island to turn into a sea of fire, and the inhabitants of the island survived except for Kiritsugu, who was taken away by his adoptive mother.

Incidentally, the head of the executors at that time was Cornelius Aruba. In 1998, he went to Guanbuzi City to become the helper of Araya Zonglian, and dared to violate the taboo and call the orange "red of pain". As a result, he was beaten by an orange first, and then his hand was broken by Fujino, and then he was severely injured by Sakura, and finally he was shot in the head by Kiritsugu, which can be regarded as revenge for his youth.

Shinji doesn't think that Xia Lei, who is just a ghoul, can escape the killing of the executor and the agent, and even if he does, he can't explain the identity of the other person. It seems that the answer can only be known when Kiritsugu comes back, Shinji's understanding of Kiritsugu is only based on the plots of his previous life after all, and it is not enough to cover the first half of Kiritsugu's life, maybe what happened at a time when Shinji didn't know?

Before leaving, Fog Paint asked again, "Just leave them alone?"

"Of course not. Shinji shook his head, "For Kiritsuke's sake, I can stop arresting people for the time being, but that doesn't mean that I will let them move around the city at will, so who should I send to spy on them?"

"I'll do it, my eyes are fit for this work. "Fujino, please.

"No, in that case, it will be too stressful for the fog to stare at the monitoring center alone, I want to think about it...... Yes, can I ask you?"

With his hands on his chest, Shinji suddenly raised his head and smiled at a telephone pole not far away, where a bewitching purple faintly appeared.

PS: For the details of Aruba, please refer to Chapter 80 of the volume of "The Realm of Emptiness", the rape and the young man let the heir snatch the head of the person is not only to prevent the girls from taking human lives, but also to take revenge. Shirou's attribute of the peach blossom is also derived from Kiritsu, and the character of drowning with ideals is also, but it's a pity that Shirou will not go to the end of red A in the three lines, there is Illya on the main line, UB has Rin, and HF directly gives up the ideal.
