"As you said, Saber's real Master is hiding in the hotel of the previous woman (Miyu)."

Shinji, who slept soundly all night on a park bench with only a slight backache, walked towards the hotel where he was staying while listening to the report from Zaid.

"Sir, do you really want to leave Caster alone?"

"It's over over there. He will have a large-scale action tonight at the latest. He will be the second Heroic Spirit to withdraw from this Holy Grail War."

Listening to what his Master said, Zaid was surprised, happy and unbelievable because his new Master is so stable!

Compared with our own Master, Tokiomi Tohsaka, which always thinks everything is under control, is really inferior! Our own Master is called strategizing!

"My lord, since you have already investigated the hiding place of lancer's Master, why not take advantage of the moment when lancer's Master is weak?""

"Someone will take action, why should they dirty our hands?" And remember, the lancer still has a use. It doesn't matter what his Master is, but he still has to keep it for other purposes."

As he spoke, Shinji suddenly paused, stopped and stood on the spot, looking at the woman with flowing white hair and an eyepatch on her left eye who was slowly walking towards him not far away, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

"... in the future."

"It's safe here. No one is monitoring you now, and no matter how loud you make it, outsiders won't hear it."

In the hotel room that was surrounded by Shinji, Shinji stood in front of the window and said this casually while closing the curtains.

"What the hell is going on?!!!"

After waiting Shinji for five minutes, the white-haired woman with an eye patch finally exploded and roared.

"What's going on?" Shinji pretended to be unaware and slowly came to sit on the sofa nearby.

"Why..." The woman clenched her fists, her face full of some kind of collapse, and then she couldn't bear it anymore, "Why did I turn into a woman after drinking the potion!!"

"Poof!" Shinji, who could no longer pretend, turned away and made a small poof.

Kariya Matou... No, the woman who should be called Yanako Matou now stared at Shinji angrily. The fort disappeared inexplicably after drinking a strange potion, which the grown man probably couldn't bear.

Looking at Kariya who was about to get angry again, Shinji waved his hand. "Calm down, Kariya... Ms. Yanzi, if you put it this way, did a Magecraft master infiltrate Matou Family yesterday?"

"That's not heavy..."

"That's the point. Let me tell you the story first."

Shinji lifted Teuchi off again, and the expression on his face became serious. I originally thought that the bottle of medicine might not be used and could be recycled later, but I didn't expect that it would be used.

Seeing Shinji's serious expression, Yanzi could only grit his teeth and say, "It's a man wearing a suit with stubble on his chin. After I found out that he broke in, I drank the potion based on what you said. Then I found that he had left, and he simply probed the outside of the barrier."

"I see..."

Shinji nodded, then held his chin and pondered. Until now, berserker has not appeared, so Tokiomi and Kirie must have guessed that someone left the stage early.

There is even an object called Spirit Core disk or Spiritron Dress in Holy Church. It is clear to Holy Church when Servant appears and when it exits.

In yesterday's Banquet of Kings meeting, Great Emperor most likely mentioned the matter of berserker, and Golden Flash also probably casually said the news he heard from Kirie.

That is to say, the news that berserker has left the game early has been known to all the masters and slaves, including Kiritsugu Emiya.

According to Irisviel's physical condition, and according to Heroic Spirit who is currently present, Kiritsugu should be aware of it, but even if he gets this exact information, he will not be too careless.

So after much thought, I decided to take the risk and investigate Matou Family, one of the most likely Three Great Familiess.

With Kiritsugu's ability, it is not difficult to find that Matou Family's barrier is only an empty shell based on various details. After discovering this kind of thing, it is not impossible to decide to risk going in and simply detect it.

So...

"Hey! Shinji! I..."

Shinji, whose thoughts were interrupted, replied, "Calm down a little, and you will return to your original body in a week."

"Really?!" Yanzi expressed joy. He actually had a chance to rearrange his turret, but then he thought of something, "Wait! It will take a week?! That Tsuruno... your dad kicked me out as a thief when he went out in the morning! Sakura doesn't recognize me anymore either!"

"Don't worry, leave it to me Sakura, nothing will go wrong. By the way, was Tsuruno alone when he went out?"

Yanzi crossed his hands and replied impatiently, "No, I took Shinji with me as well, and also took some luggage with me. It seems that I will live outside for a while."

"Hmm... In this way, Matou will completely disown Holy Grail War this time. I will send you back in the evening and explain it to Sakura personally."

"It's not me..."

"I can only say that you swallowed the potion too early. That man was just a tester and would never break into the depths of Matou Residence. If you want to blame you, you have to blame yourself."

Hearing this, Yanzi could only curse MMP incompetence and rage in his heart, and then continued, "Okay, I listen to you, but today only Sakura and the little girl who just woke up are at home today. You have to think of a way to take care of them both."

"Well, leave this to me. But... you can no longer use this identity. Use the phone here to ask the collaborators of Matou to make a new identity for you in the name of Zouken. You can live with your new identity these days."

Just after the evening, Yanzi, who had been given a new identity by the collaborators with super high efficiency, also had a new name - Shou·Yanzi. He grew up in United States and was a Japanese-American mixed-race person who had just returned to China and was looking for a new job.

Shinji, who was taking Kariya home, also saw Gilles de Rais standing on the water with his eyes closed as he passed Miyou River Bridge, seemingly preparing something.

Shinji, who had no interest in all this, just glanced at it briefly. The climax of the plot here is only Saber's final loser's sword of wish.

I have to say that the only four Noble Phantasm that Shinji is really interested in are the four Noble Phantasm that Golden Flash originally threw down. The other party clearly said they didn't want them, so picking them up by yourself doesn't count as stealing.

Shinji, who sneaked into Matou Residence with Yanzi, came to the living room on the second floor and saw Sakura who had been hungry all day, but was still happily sitting on the sofa reading a picture book with the little girl he just met.

Yanzi took off the invisibility hat that Shinji lent him, and breathed out with tears in his eyes. "Sakura."

"The thief..."

Looking at the girl who suddenly showed some defensiveness, Yanzi couldn't express his sorrow, but there was nothing he could do about it. With his 36d appearance, he said he was Kariya, let alone Sakura, even if he let his original self come to see him, he couldn't believe it.

"Sakura, don't be afraid. Uncle Kariya has to go out for about a week. This is the nanny he has found for you - Miss Yanzi. You can usually call her Aunt Yanzi."

Seeing Shinji showing up next to Yanzi, the little girl put down her guard and nodded silently. "Well, I understand. Hello, Aunt Yanzi."

It may take Kariya a few days to adapt to the identity change from uncle to aunt, especially things like going to the toilet.

"Okay, I've prepared food and other things. Try not to go out recently. I'll put the short-term employment document written by Mr. Kariya here."

After taking out some prepared ingredients from System Space and putting them down, Shinji was ready to leave.

Kiritsugu is currently asking Miyu to look for lancer's new master. Although the top suspect is Sola, his contact with lancer also means that it is impossible for him not to notice him.

Although it may just be a simple follow-up and confirmation, if he disappears inexplicably, it will deepen his suspicion and guard against him.

"Huh?" As if he felt something, Shinji, who was about to leave, lowered his head and glanced at the little purple-haired girl who came to his side unknowingly and lowered her head without saying a word.

Shinji, who knew what the little girl was expecting, reached out and rubbed the little girl's hair, then turned and left.

Shinji's guess was not wrong. When Shinji returned to the hotel, he found that even though the traces had disappeared, his belongings still had traces of being turned over.

I think it was Miyu who sneaked into his room and carefully checked all the items related to him.

"It has been confirmed. He is just an ordinary detective. He has returned to the hotel."

Miyu, who was watching Shinji from another building with a sniper rifle through the window of Shinji, made a report to Kiritsugu via radio.

The Kiritsugu at the other end pondered for a moment and replied, "So the new Master of the lancer will only be Sola... ok, it's clear. Let's go find Sola after leaving the surveillance familiar."

"Understood."

"You are really cautious...Kiritsugu Emiya..."

Shinji sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, his back to the window, his cheek propped up with one hand, and he looked at the red wine glass in his hand with interest.

"It's just that an ordinary detection familiar is too unchallenging, and it really doesn't have any properties~"

Around ten o'clock in the evening, by the Miyou River river far away from Miyou River Bridge.

After sensing that there was no so-called surveillance or line of sight around him, Shinji, who had already changed into his diving suit, took off his invisibility hat and then quietly dived into the water.

His movements were so careful that not even a ripple appeared on the surface of the water.

What is slightly different from the development of the original work is that this world line has added a lyb Shinji, and there is no berserker to disrupt this sea demon crusade.

And Tokiomi Tohsaka is a little more entangled in this crusade than in the original work.

Because of his status as a minister, Tokiomi Tohsaka, who was "honored" to get to ride Vimana with Golden Flash, knew that his Servant could easily kill the big monster below, but...
