Chapter 308 Rin Tohsaka
Without taking Illya and the others, nor Irisviel and Frillie, Toki and Saber left the hotel alone.
"Sigh, why did we still come out?" Shichen sighed as he walked side by side with Saber.
"Shichen, you really are a good Master," Saber said with a smile.
In the Holy Grail War, under normal circumstances, they shouldn't be seeking out the evil Servant for the sake of justice.
This would give other enemies an opportunity to take advantage.
This was just Saber's sense of justice acting up, but Shichen readily agreed.
Saber was very happy. Alice was right. Her Master did not have any complaints about her and even cared about her.
No matter how naive she was, she knew that the other Masters would definitely not agree with her opinion so easily.
Although Shichen's strength meant she didn't need to worry about any enemy's schemes, her inexplicable decision wasn't because she agreed with her opinion.
"What's the difference between saying that and giving someone a 'friend card'? Don't say things like that again," Shi Chen commanded.
"Why?" Saber didn't quite understand.
"Just listen to me."
"I understand... So how should I compliment you?"
"Praise me? No need for that, I'd rather praise you."
"You still treat me like a child." Saber was a little annoyed.
"You've always been a child." Shi Chen reached out and ruffled her hair; her ahoge (cowlick) was a bit stiff.
Saber frowned, somewhat unaccustomed to Shichen's behavior, but did not slap his hand away.
I've been touched several times today, and I've managed to accept it to some extent.
"I'm much older than you."
"Nonsense, you're just a sixteen-year-old girl."
"You know my situation...."
In traditional legends, King Arthur did not have a fixed age, and he was certainly not a girl.
"I know everything."
Saber remained silent. She wasn't sure if what Shichen said was true, but she didn't seem to be talking about her own affairs.
Shi Chen didn't intend to press her further, so he changed the subject, saying, "Why is it so quiet so late at night? Should we split up and search?"
"Okay." Saber didn't hesitate and turned to walk to the side.
Dressed in a long white velvet coat, and so adorable, she would definitely be the best prey at night.
However, no one could see her as prey.
Shi Chen still trusted her, and he turned and walked to the other side.
The nights in Fuyuki City are unusually quiet and deserted. I wonder if it's because of the recent missing children incidents; there's not a single person around at night.
Of course, it could also be related to the Holy Grail War that has already begun.
Since it was being conducted in secret, it couldn't implicate ordinary people, and Servants were usually great heroes from mythology or history.
They also possessed noble character and integrity.
The Servant who brutally murdered the child was an accident.
Shi Chen remembered that he was a Caster. Even if he didn't have any magician abilities, he was still hard to find if he was hiding in a secluded place.
You need to learn the ability to easily find the target you want.
Before they knew it, the time had come to the train station in Fuyuki City, but there was still no one there.
"Um?"
Just as Shichen was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a small figure.
The small figure moved cautiously, as if it had been discovered, looking around furtively.
It was a girl, and she was dressed in what was clearly a uniform, with her hair tied in pigtails.
Elementary school students.
Shi Chen recognized her at a glance.
He hadn't expected to run into him, but it was perfect timing; following her would allow him to find that beast.
The little girl was very alert and cautious the whole way, but she would occasionally touch the clock-like thing hanging around her neck, as if she were sensing something.
Shichen followed her, and soon they encountered other figures.
A young man who looked like a spirited young man had a bracelet on his right wrist that emitted a mysterious purple light. Most importantly, behind him were two dangling children with empty eyes.
The target has been identified.
Shi Chen didn't rush to make a move, but instead followed behind the little girl and the energetic young man.
Soon, they arrived at a dark basement, filled with empty, lifeless children.
"The sound of a piano!" The little girl also found her target and exclaimed in surprise.
Naturally, she was spotted by that energetic young man.
"There's one more! Perfect timing, we're having a party but we don't have enough people. Do you want to come?"
The young man grinned wickedly, extending his right hand, adorned with a bracelet, toward the little girl. The bracelet emitted a dazzling purple light.
In an instant, the little girl's eyes became vacant.
But only for a moment.
Bang!
The energetic young man was suddenly sent flying backward, crashing hard into the wall. He squatted for a second or two before landing, sprawling on the ground.
"What...?"
"Huh?"
The little girl also came to her senses. Just as she was about to be on guard, she realized that the person in front of her was not the bad guy.
"Little girl, are you alright?" Shi Chen turned around and smiled at the little girl.
The little girl looked at Shichen's face, blinked, and seemed a little lost in thought.
"What's wrong?" Shi Chen crouched down slightly and leaned closer to her.
"Huh? No... nothing..." The little girl turned her head away shyly, her fair face slightly flushed.
If you look closely, this little girl is very delicate, with beautiful features, and she looks very much like Shi Ying.
"Don't worry."
Shi Chen, being mischievous, reached out and ruffled her hair: "It's alright now, leave this guy to me."
"Oh...oh." The little girl responded blankly, without even a gentle pat on the head that went against the time.
"Who the hell are you...?" At this moment, the energetic young man finally stood up, his mouth full of pus and blood.
But he couldn't stand steadily at all and could only barely stand by looking at the wall.
Shi Chen's kick just now was quite forceful; the energetic young man broke at least several ribs. If he hadn't needed this guy to lead the way, he would have killed him with a single kick.
"Me? I was just a kind passerby."
"What...what a mess?"
"Asking won't help. Tell me, did you kill these children?"
"Yes... so what if it is?" the spirited young man replied with a rather defiant air.
"Is that so? Then you can die." Shi Chen produced a red spear and threw it directly at the young man.
Whoosh!
The spear shot out like an arrow, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air, and with a speed that the young man couldn't even react to, it pierced his right wrist.
The spear, along with the bracelet, slammed the spirited young man, Wolf, against the wall.
The bracelet shattered, and the young man's entire right hand was severed, bleeding profusely.
"ah--!
Screams echoed throughout the basement.
However, the little girl didn't see this cruel scene. Shi Chen had already covered the little girl's eyes and turned her around.
"You can't look!"
"I...I'm not afraid!"
"That's amazing! But your friend has already woken up, you should comfort her." Shi Chen said, releasing the little girl.
"Huh?"
The little girl's vision cleared, and she realized that the other little girls in the basement had woken up, including her best friend.
"Yukine!" The little girl happily went over to help her up.
"Rin...Rin?" The little girl named Yukine looked at Rin in surprise.
"I'm so glad you're alright!" Rin hugged her tightly.
"Hmm...:::::" Yukine hugged her too, a smile on her face.
At this moment, her friends' company made her feel at ease.
However, the other children were a little scared and at a loss.
"Don't be afraid, everyone."
Shi Chen shouted loudly to draw everyone's attention: "I've come to rescue you. You're safe now."
"R-really?"
"I've already called the police, everyone just need to wait for them to arrive," Shi Chen reassured them.
For children, the police are the safest.
"That's great!"
"I can go home now!"
"B-Big brother! That person ran away!" Rin suddenly reminded him.
Unaware of the situation, Shi Chenyang turned around and found that the spirited young man was indeed gone, leaving only the heavy academic marks imprinted on the wall.
There was also a bloody hand.
He could throw a ball of fire at any time and burn it all to ashes.
"It's alright, they've run away, so be it. Your safety is more important."
"But... but that guy might do bad things, right?" Rin asked worriedly.
"Indeed, but don't worry, I'll catch him." Shi Chen smiled gently at her.
"This... like this..." Rin was embarrassed to check the time.
"Okay, let's go out first."
Shichen clapped his hands and led everyone away from the gloomy basement.
Once outside, the children relaxed considerably, and soon, the sound of police sirens could be heard.
"Alright, the police are here, I'm going to arrest that guy." Shichen said goodbye to Rin.
"Huh?" Rin was taken aback.
Goodbye~
"Wait a minute, big brother."
"What's wrong?"
"T-Can you tell me your name? My name is Rin, Rin Tohsaka."
"Rin, my name is Tokimatsu."
Shichen and Rin Tohsaka waved and disappeared from the spot.
