Chapter 18: The Strange Woman

Again, the girls around Shinji are all good girls, and although they express their feelings in different ways and have different thoughts in their hearts, they don't delay their business.

Whether it's vinegar, the most emotional Kiri-e, or the most active Fujino, once you get into the working state, you become very reliable. When the obviously eccentric girl appeared in the field of vision, Fujino immediately calmed down, opened the magic eye, and firmly locked on to the target, while the fog painting played the virtual nature of "dual existence", and quietly approached under the cover of the surrounding buildings.

The woman with her head tightly wrapped but thinly dressed on her body did not seem to notice that she was being targeted, and continued to wander the streets at night, her head slightly turned, and her eyes moved from side to side like a vampire who came out to forage for food at night.

Because of the distance, Shinji couldn't use magic to detect the woman's vital signs to see if she was a human or a ghost, but based on his years of experience in hunting vampires, he could basically conclude that this was a Dead Apostle, and it was an inexperienced novice Dead Apostle.

But—

"Strange. The more he observed, the more strange Shinji felt.

"What's so strange?" Fujino asked in a whisper.

"It's strange everywhere. ”

The woman's way of acting with her head and tail hidden looks like she has just become a Dead Apostle for a long time, this period Dead Apostle has the strongest demand for blood, and her fragile reason can't withstand the strong instinctive demand, in such a state, how can she suck blood without leaving any traces?

Fujino asked again, "Could it be that you just arrived nearby and haven't had time to suck blood yet?"

Shinji shook his head and said, "No, you look at her steps, there are few pauses, it is impossible for people who have just arrived in an unfamiliar environment to walk in this way, she must have been here for a while." ”

"Maybe there was another Dead Apostle nearby, and that Dead Apostle was very experienced, and taught her to take care of the aftermath, like an old man in a company leading a new person. Since we found her, she has rubbed shoulders with six people, including men and women, young students and old people. If she really was the new life and death disciple who was dominated by instinct, I don't think she would do nothing. ”

Kiri's evaluation of Fujino's "thinking the most" is not wrong at all, and he has only dealt with the Dead Apostles a handful of times, but he still makes a judgment based on careful observation and analysis.

This is the most likely answer at the moment. But it is not possible to conclude that the existence of the Dead Apostles is itself an extraordinary knowledge, and anything can happen to them, maybe this is an old immortal pretending to be tender. If you look at Erquite's usual appearance, you will think that she has lived for 800 years? Of course, Elquit is not pretending, she is really young - psychological. ”

"That's why you didn't let the fog paint get too close?"

"That's right, although the 'dual existence' of fog painting is special, it is still possible to be found and even destroyed when encountering real monsters, so be careful. When Elquit returns, when this Holy Grail War is over, I will take you to the real mysterious world. ”

Previously, because of Elquit's blood-sucking impulse and preparations for the Holy Grail War, he chose to take Elquit out alone. Now that the urge to suck blood is no longer a problem, and the Holy Grail War will not last long, it is time to take the family to see the mystery and prosperity of the world.

Hearing this promise, Fujino suddenly smiled like a flower, and wrapped Shinji tightly like a beautiful snake, she had been waiting for this day for a long time. Although she was used to seeing him leave and waiting at home, deep down, she still wanted to become that lucky princess and accompany him.

If he wants to go abroad, where will he go first? Is it China, which he always talks about? Or is it the United Kingdom, where he goes the most? I heard my uncle and aunt say that the scenery in the United States is also good...... Hmm, there are so many places I want to go, so I can't be confused.

Forget it, I don't want to, I'm not good at making decisions, so let him decide. As long as you're with him, it's good to go anywhere.

Just when Fujino was looking forward to the future, Kiri-e seemed to have discovered something, and sent back a message through spiritual resonance.

"Do you think that woman's surroundings are a little familiar?"

"It seems to be a little familiar, I haven't flown at night for a long time, I haven't flown for a while—wait. ”

Modern buildings are heavily modular, and in the middle of the night, there are very few things that can be distinguished. At this time, a decades-old Japanese house was reflected on his retina.

"Isn't this near Emiya's house? That kind of traditional garden, there is one near his house—how did you come here? Could it be that the woman came for Emiya's house?"

Shinji originally just said it casually and didn't take it seriously, but the woman really did it. She climbed up the wall of the house adjacent to the Emiya's house, and just sat on the wall, staring at the courtyard of the Emiya's house motionlessly.

"What is this doing?" Shinji looked confused.

Running out on a winter night and walking for several kilometers just to see the Emiya family?

After a while, Illya appeared in the courtyard, dressed in a small white dress and holding a cane inlaid with a star and rubies, exactly like the popular magical girls.

Of course, this is not that Illya was influenced by Japanese otaku culture when she was growing up, and awakened her interest in cosplay and prepared to change her career to become a coser, but the concept of the magic wand in her hand comes with it.

Yes, the magic wand, not a magic wand or a magic wand, is a real magic wand, designed by the "Jewel Man" and assisted by Shinji Magiri and Yuitisa, and is infused with "second magic" and "third magic".

Do you remember that after Shinji stepped into the threshold of the third magic, she went to Illya to help her solve the problem of the mismatch between the growth rate of her soul and the growth rate of her body?

Channeling Illya's excessive soul power for secondary use not only coordinates the soul and body, but also is a kind of exercise for Illya, and it is also a powerful talisman, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone. It was because of this magic wand that Kiritsugu and Maiya dared to leave the mother and daughter at home without fear that they would be in danger.

It is worth mentioning that Shinji and Feather Tysa were only involved in the soul work, and the style of the magic wand and the concept weapon formed after activation were designed and made by the old man Jewel himself, and had nothing to do with anyone else.

Thinking of the two staff of the same type in the book written by Hiroshi Hiroyama in his previous life, called "Fate/kaleid liner Magical Girl ☆ Illya", Shinji's mind had an unprecedented guess.

The image of the old man with the jewel is not pretending, right?,In fact, the essence is a stinky hooligan who likes magical girls.,Just like the group of stinky hooligans who like JS (elementary school students) in the Japan Shogi Association.。

PS: The traitor wanted to say it a long time ago, the old man of the gem must also be a stinky rascal who likes to peep, and his essence will not be much better than Merlin. Merlin can only peep into one world, and the old man with the jewel can peek into all parallel worlds, how can a serious person awaken this kind of magic?
