My name is Lin Hao,
I'm visiting the new base.

In the afternoon, the passenger flow at Fuyuki Station that should have thinned out was obviously denser than usual.
Basically, this situation is due to a leaked photo. Most tourists are preparing to explore the mysterious "near-Earth aurora" out of curiosity. From this name, we can see that the official characterization of it is a natural phenomenon. , but the people who came to Fuyuki at this moment obviously didn't believe in this method.
"Rin, let's go back..." "You repeated this sentence five times along the way, no, go back." "Ugh..."
Near the exit of the station, a pair of cute sisters were holding each other's hands and walking out. The girl with twin tails in a red dress was forcefully pulling another girl with short hair in a pink coat and white skirt. Although the latter was a little distressed, she objected. He doesn't look very determined either.
"Listen, Sakura." After getting away from the crowd at the station, Tohsaka Rin let go of his hand and said to his sister: "You have seen that mother is so worried about father."
When the two sisters went to find Tohsaka Aoi, they happened to overhear her and their uncle talking about Fuyuki's ongoing Holy Grail War, as well as their unconcealed worry about Tosaka Tokiomi, at least to the extent that they didn't notice that they were eavesdropping. Worry.
"Well..." Tohsaka Sakura nodded, but this is not an excuse to run over casually——
"So, let's take something back that will make mother feel at ease!" Rin interrupted Sakura's train of thought when she was trying to figure out how to express it: "Qiang Qiang!"
The girl with twin tails took out a ruby as big as her fist from her pocket. It was a standard tetrahedron that reflected a faint light in the sun.
It is a one-time magic product, its official name is a photo gem. Originally it could only store fixed images, but after improvement, it added the function of continuous recording. After recording, it can be viewed at any time, but it cannot be recorded again, and the improvement The person was none other than her father Tosaka Tokiomi, and he had the intention of continuing to improve it to the point where it could be recorded repeatedly.
"Then, Rin, what do you want to shoot with it?" Sakura tilted her head in confusion: "Father?"
"Father, father's heroic spirit, and the way they defeated the enemy~" Rin nodded and said: "We took a picture quietly, and then took the car back, just in time to give it to mother before going to bed, so that we know how powerful father is. , she won’t worry anymore.”
"Ah, wait, don't walk so fast..." Although something felt wrong, Sakura couldn't think of the reason for a moment, and she was already pulled away by her activist sister.

For the third time, Matou Kariya considered whether to show up and bring the two lost ghosts to Tokiomi Tohsaka.
When he first discovered them, Rin actually held the ruby that was very valuable at first glance and spoke to Sakura openly. He had to follow behind to help them get rid of the malicious followers.
Therefore, there is a real problem with the magic inheritance of the Tohsaka family. They chose precious gems as the casting material. I heard that when Aoi taught her daughters magic, a large number of gems were wasted due to failure. The result was that the two This daughter has no idea about the fact that "jewels are very valuable", so she just walks through the market with it.
The other is Tokiomi himself, that old antique who has absolutely no intention of integrating into modern society. Even with convenient technological products, he still insists on using magic to achieve his goals. Although the people in the Clock Tower are similar, this has the same function as a camera and video recorder. The patent application for gem magic was actually approved.
A father who holds this concept will naturally raise daughters with the same concept. Now they both know about technological products but don't know why. It's just because the station announcement system of the tram they took is broken, just in the city where they grew up. Getting lost made Kariya, who had been following quietly, want to sigh loudly.
Finally, now, Rin finally realizes that she is lost and decides to use the "magic pointer" to find her way home. This is probably what she used before. After all, under the Tohsaka mansion is Fuyuki's largest spiritual vein, which is an obvious landmark. It's normal to do it. But now during the Holy Grail War, the uncertainty of spiritual veins has been messed up by all parties involved in the war, and compared to spiritual veins, that thing is more likely to point to the nearest heroic spirit and master.
Fortunately, the two sisters were near the shopping street of the new capital at the moment. Even if they were unlucky enough to bump into a certain Master and Heroic Spirit on the spot, the other party would not be able to directly attack them. Moreover, it was impossible for the outside magician to know Tokiomi's two Daughter is the right one.
In addition, since Rin and Sakura will be found near the station, it proves that Tokiomi Tosaka has sent his wife and daughter to a neighboring city before the war began, and these two restless girls obviously saw the photo and themselves Came running.
Since Aoi is very safe, it might as well take care of these two troublesome ghosts for the time being.
"Hey! Kariya, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
When Kariya watched Rin walking in the opposite direction of Tosaka House for the seventh time, a hand patted his shoulder, and a familiar voice sounded from behind.
Matou Kariya turned around, and it turned out to be Ryuunosuke Ubui there. While chatting with him, he finally let go of the worry that "I am not strong enough and may not be able to protect Rin and Sakura in case of a strong enemy." After all, Ryuunosuke As a disciple of Tokiomi, Nosuke must have appeared here because he was entrusted by Tokiomi to take care of his two daughters.
"Ryunosuke! You're not participating...but you're actually free?"
"Hmm, it seems you also noticed that photo. Oh yes, it seems that this is still your business scope."
"What's the specific situation? Why do you feel like the noise is a bit too big this time?"
"Well...actually there are all kinds of problems."
Kariya noticed out of the corner of his eye that a girl dressed in black who seemed to completely blend into the shadows followed the two eldest sisters of the Tohsaka family with a burst of black smoke. Ryunosuke, who also saw this scene, was not surprised at all. His expression made him feel more reassured.
"But Kariya, judging from the fluctuations in magic power, it seems that you have used very crude suggestion and expulsion magic."
"Huh? You, a half-way monk, are you starting to laugh at me for being rough?"
"I also used the magic to expel idlers just now. You didn't notice it at all, right?"
Kariya was stunned for a moment, and then he carefully sensed his surroundings and found that there was indeed a faint fluctuation of magic power. Moreover, although the two of them were at a tram stop, all ordinary people were standing far enough away that they could not hear what they were saying.
"Well, it seems you have made great progress over the years."
"If you inherit the Matou family - hey, don't stare, your old man abandoned the mansion and disappeared, did you know?"
"He would actually give up the Holy Grail War?"
"Furthermore, your brother Tsuruno also left after selling off the regular property in the house. All that is left there is the magic-related inheritance."
"You don't want those things—"
"After all, they are things passed down from your ancestors to your Matou family. Can you bear to see them taken away by the Magic Association? Or, despite what you are unwilling to accept, there is not even a CD of the valuable parts left?"
Matou Kariya fell silent. Although he ran away from home out of disgust with Zouken's Insect Technique, he did not completely understand what it was. Before it was changed beyond recognition by this ancestor who pursued immortality, it was actually a kind of It is a normal magic system similar to seance. Sure enough, only a madman would think of using it to replace his own body to achieve immortality.
"I will consider--"
"Hey, it's better to choose the day than to hit the sun. Let's deal with it directly today. This will save you the trouble of looking forward and backward and forgetting."
Kariya's shoulders sank, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw Ryuunosuke Umei holding his arms, forget it, that's fine, I just hope Ryuunosuke won't be frightened by those warehouse bugs.
109:07:13
Tohsaka Rin actually didn't want to bring this younger sister out with him.
She always talks loudly, walks slowly, and is frightened by strange animals from time to time. She always disagrees with some of her adventure plans, but she insists on following her when they are implemented. The only advantage is that she is not casual. Cry, otherwise I wouldn’t have brought her here this time.
"Rin, if you cross the bridge, it will be the other way around..."
Standing in front of the sign with a map on the left end of the Fuyuki Bridge, Rin tried hard to find half of his family's mansion, and finally came to the conclusion of "cross the bridge first", but was immediately rejected by his sister.
"There aren't as many tall buildings around our house as there are on the other side of the bridge."
Ahhhh! If it weren't for her family's motto to stay elegant at all times, she would have started to pull her hair hard. If she couldn't take a picture of her father's handsome posture fighting the heroic spirit, she wouldn't be able to get back to her grandmother's house in time, and she would definitely be discovered if she went back late. Then the mother complained to the father, and a scolding was inevitable.
bump--
A pillar of light suddenly rose from the river in the distance. Although it only lasted for a short period of time, it looked very much like the "near-Earth aurora" that Rin had seen on TV and in photos before, and the "near-Earth aurora" in her hand looked like a pocket watch. The magic pointer also immediately pointed its tip.
"Rin, is that father..." "No!"
Tohsaka Rin showed his acumen as a magician's daughter at this moment. Even if there were indeed magicians fighting with each other there, the possibility of his father being involved was very low. If he went there rashly, he would probably be affected or recognized and treated as someone else. Hostage, so don’t get close but stay away——
When he was about to tell his sister to leave quickly, Rin saw a large group of tourists who came over excitedly thinking they had discovered the 'near-Earth aurora'. They completely blocked the way out. If they wanted to leave in the opposite direction, they could only go upstream.
"Sakura! Follow me!" Rin grabbed the hand of the person next to her and led her in the opposite direction of the crowd.
I seemed to hear my sister's exclamation in the noise, but there was no need to worry. There seemed to be a lot of these people, but there were still gaps to pass through before they gathered.
