Chapter 20 A few families rejoice and a few families are sad
The latest explosive news about Fuyuki City has probably become a hot topic of current affairs that occupies the top spot these days, and it is natural that it is-
Fuyuki Seaside Park, near the mouth of the river and near the western shore, had been completely destroyed last night due to a gas leak and explosion, leaving only the ruins that looked like a typhoon had passed.
And because the movement was too huge at that time, many citizens who took advantage of the location and distance also saw the terrible damage caused by the gas explosion.
Including the pillar of clouds that is grounded in the sky......
A huge storm spiral visible to the naked eye......
Endless raindrops of thunder......
Although it didn't last too long.
WTF? Are you meowing to me?
This terrifying phenomenon can be said to be something that can be done by a mere natural gas explosion? Why don't you go to heaven?!
And isn't it said that Fukayama Town on the west side is an old town? The public facilities are aging, the living environment is not good, the development is backward, and there is no comparison with the new capital on the east side, the highly modern new city with everything...... But how do you feel that in fact, Fukayama Town has completely used black technology!
If you say that it was because of the failure and leakage of the nuclear power plant, some people may believe it, but the natural gas exploded...... Isn't it a little too magical?
Be perfunctory and be serious, what's the difference between you doing this and rubbing the IQ of the citizens of Fuyuki City on the ground?
The citizens of Fuyuki City all have a question mark on their faces, although this natural disaster did not cause any casualties at all, purely from the results, it is indeed a thing worth bragging about.
However, that's not the problem at all!
It's a pity that the era of this world is still 1994, not to mention the strange things such as magic and mystery, even the development of science and technology is still very backward.
For example, there are not as many smartphones as later generations, and everyone has one, and they can take pictures of what they see at any time and put it on YouTube or something - even strictly speaking, even this year, the first smartphone has just hit the market, and the functions are very rudimentary.
There are also various media and networks that are not as developed as the market outlook, so there are still a few people who really saw the phenomenon of last night, or called to consult and complain.
Because the vast majority of people do not know what is going on, they can only rely on hearsay to find out, and they do not necessarily believe that people who know the truth will also find these claims unreasonable, so they are justified in doubt.
What the? You said that last night, it was as if the god of thunder had descended, and the storm and thunder directly destroyed the seaside park?
Well, I'm sorry, it's not that I don't believe you, it's that you're saying so fake that it's hard for me not to doubt it.
What the? You said that last night, when you called to question, the people on the other side said that the main reason for destroying the entire seaside park was caused by a gas leak caused by mental retardation, and then a large seaside park connected to the harbor was blown up directly into the sky?
I'm sorry, it's not that I don't believe you, the main thing is that your statement is too insulting to my IQ, it's hard for me not to doubt it, after all, the people above may really be hiding something, but they shouldn't use such a retarded reason to perfunctory us!
Besides, I didn't call but asked, only you yourself said that you called, and there is no evidence to prove this, and there is no way to prove that the answer you got is such a statement, so naturally whatever you say is up to you, anyway, I don't believe in such mentally retarded rumors......
- Well, that's about what it looks like.
"The truth is in the hands of a few" and "the eyes of the masses are clear" -- these two almost completely different and contradictory ideas are naturally polarized and intensified among the citizens of Fuyuki City.
Well, in fact, it can't be said to be polarized, because since it is a minority, it is definitely impossible to fight against the majority, so the truth is naturally quickly submerged in the waves.
In their place, there are all sorts of rumors, or reasonable conjectures—
Because of the fact that Fuyuki Seaside Park was indeed reduced to ruins overnight, and that night, although the vast majority of citizens did not witness it, they all heard the violent thunder and the muffled sound of destroying everything.
Before there was a statement that was enough to convince everyone and make a final decision, it was natural that everyone was curious and began to make up their minds, reverie, and conspiracy theories...... And then all sorts of theories were derived.
Everyone has their own opinions and ideas, some people think it is a prohibited weapons test, some people think it is an alien flying saucer forced landing on Earth, and some people believe that it is ......
Anyway, there are all kinds of strange reasons, and even when the church was about to make up for the mistakes and omissions of last night, they were shocked to find that in fact, there was no need for them to bother their brains, and the masses themselves could argue and muddy the waters.
The truth is nothing at all, and no one will believe it, even if they don't deal with it.
What the heck? Are the psychological qualities and three views of the citizens of Fuyuki City so strong?
The churches feel a little messy because of this, but that's obviously a good thing because they don't have to put a lot of effort into dealing with it...... So it was decided so happily that whatever happened during the Holy Grail War, it would be said that it was a natural gas explosion.
Anyway, it would be a troublesome task to carefully conceive a reasonable reason for each completely different damage and loss, and no one would be unhappy to be able to give up this part directly.
……
……
Compared to the church, which is much more relaxed all of a sudden, the participants in the Holy Grail War have their own different troubles.
For example, the Tosaka family, one of the three royal families, in the luxurious Western-style mansion, from last night to now, the sound of various smashing and explosions has not stopped, and Tosaka Shichen also has a dishful face, and he feels the pain in his flesh.
Not only is the consumption of magic power a little large, but also because he drew a card and drew out a father, the equipment seems to be very powerful, but the person itself is not good, which drags down and affects the performance of the equipment-
Obviously, it was not easy to use the precious spell to save my father from the situation of nine deaths at the last moment last night, but my father was not grateful to him at all, but instead began to smash in the foreign pavilion and scolded him wildly.
Probably because of the grievances and humiliation he received all night, not only was he not able to vent it and turned into the anger of the king who killed the enemy vigorously, but he almost died in the hands of the other party, he felt unprecedented humiliation and anger.
It's just that Jin Pika can't do anything about it, but his anger always has to be vented - if he really shows nothing after being pulled back, he just quietly accepts the facts, calmly and wisely summarizes the problem, thinks about countermeasures, and then makes persistent efforts......
Then he's not a golden shiny.
Tosaka Shichen's family naturally suffered, but he didn't dare to be angry or speak, so he could only run around to put out fires or repair magic enchantments or something after the destruction of the noble and ancient king.
I'm so tired, I feel like I'll never love again...... I originally felt that there was a problem with the character of summoning such a father, but now Tosaka Shichen began to doubt that such an immature person could really be regarded as a king?
He has always been a noble man, but this one ...... It's a pity that I don't see any noble elements at all, but I am both irascible and vulgar, eager to go all over the world to proclaim how noble my blood is, and I am often a blunt "mongrel" to anyone......
Tosaka Shichen is a real upper-class person, and the education he has always received tells him that people who are truly cultivated, cultivated and high-quality will not deliberately show off their wealth and status or anything, only the nouveau riche will have such a face.
And Mr. Jin seems to be like this, except for the inexplicable and unreasonable treasure, he really can't see any noble kingly demeanor on his body. If you leave his gear aside and throw him into those thugs who are constantly refreshed in the streets and alleys, riding motorcycles, dyed their hair and nose rings, holding inferior cigarettes, and cursing in their mouths......
There's really no difference, and no one else can tell the difference.
But what else can be done? The cannon you have made an appointment with you will finish it on your knees...... The elegant magician looked at the two spells on the back of his hand, his expression was very complicated, strictly speaking, he actually only had the last spell to use.
This is because although the Great Holy Grail gives the Master the Three Strokes Spell, it means that it can only be used three times at most. While the Exhaustion Spell does not terminate the contract between the Master and the Servant, it does mean that the Master can no longer force the Heroic Spirit to carry out orders.
And it is quite dangerous to be unable to control a powerful Servant, and there is even a possibility of being killed by the Servant's mutiny, so the actual number of uses is usually twice.
So, he suddenly found that even though he had done so many things-
Through his grandfather's old friend, Mine Ria, he formed an alliance with the Templar Church as an overseer, and learned about the information and movements of each Master, so he was able to gain a head start in intelligence.
Through the Church as an intermediary, interfering in the course of the Fourth Holy Grail War.
There is also the premise of hiding that Yan Feng Qili has obtained the stigma, and arranging Yan Feng Qili to become his disciple. Then prepare to arrange a parting of the ways, pretending to let the eliminated assassins gather intelligence in the shadows and assassinate others.
Preparations were made at a very early stage before the Holy Grail War, and if everything went well theoretically, the Holy Grail War could be quickly ended and won...... But because he did everything possible to get the molt of the first snake in antiquity from the valley of the two rivers, he succeeded in summoning Gilgamesh.
It seems like everything is going to be messed up?
Moreover, the assassin died in the map cannon last night, and the countless unreasonable treasures that Jin Pika revealed last night, in addition to the Caster who did not know the origin, will definitely be targeted by the fire......
Thinking about it like this, Tosaka Toshitomi felt that his head hurt even more.
Tosaka Toshitomi is undoubtedly unlucky, compared to the various external and internal troubles he faces, and the huge pressure of being overwhelmed, the other contestants only need to consider the problem of external worries, that is, how to deal with the current problem of out-of-specification opponents.
