This is the first time she has been unable to return to Chaldea since she gained her powers.
"How is this going?"
Because there were so few clues, she couldn't figure it out, so she temporarily gave up thinking about it and decided to deal with the situation at hand first.
"Let's solve the accommodation problem first."
Fujimaru Ritsuka made her decision.
After all, having a stable base is very important when you first arrive.
Since it's a modern world, as long as you have money, accommodation isn't a problem. After thinking it over, she decided to buy her own house.
After all, if you have the money to buy a house, who would want to rent?
Besides, she is indeed rich now.
Regardless of the fact that she received a lot of gold and jewels as a reward when she played games with King Gilgamesh, there are many Servants in Chaldea who can create Holy Grails by hand, and creating gold and jewels by hand is no problem for them either.
If all else fails, you can make a wish using the Holy Grail; a wish of that magnitude shouldn't cause any problems.
Having made up her mind, she took out her phone to search for houses for sale online while looking for offline sales points.
Don't ask her how she connected to the internet; just say it's Chaldea Technology.
A passerby glanced at her as she walked by, drawn to her adorable face. But then his gaze was drawn to the high-tech smartphone in her hand, a device that seemed out of place with her cute demeanor.
Wow, that's cool! What brand of phone is that?
The man muttered to himself, deciding to go back and search online.
Unfortunately, the outcome was destined to disappoint the man.
This was a Valentine's Day gift from Minamoto no Tameaki to Fujimaru Ritsuka, named "Little Tameaki with Smartphone Transformation Function," or simply Little Tameaki.
As its name suggests, it has two forms: a smartphone and a robot.
Needless to say, its form factor is that of a smartphone, and its performance far surpasses that of today's most advanced mobile phones.
In its transformed form as robot Minamoto no Tameaki, it can reproduce the attack pattern of the Servant Minamoto no Tameaki, and even unleash its Noble Phantasm while maintaining low output.
Of course, the attack power is also a scaled-down version, only able to burn an area within a three-meter radius. However, it is more than enough as a self-defense tool in an emergency, and even somewhat excessive in terms of firepower.
Getting back to the main point, after much deliberation, she finally chose a detached house that looked pretty good.
The house has two floors, is fully furnished, occupies more than 100 square meters, and is in a good location with complete surrounding infrastructure. The interior space design is not as cramped as other traditional Japanese layouts, but rather has a more Western-style open layout.
During the selection process, she also saw a rather bizarre house description, which asked whether a murder had occurred there. There were quite a few houses marked "yes," and their prices were much lower than normal houses.
As expected of Beika Town!
The house she chose was also one where there had been no murders; apart from being a bit expensive, it was perfect in every other way.
After selecting a house, paying the money, and signing the contract, the entire home-buying process was very smooth, since most problems can be solved with money.
"I hereby declare the [New Chaldea Beika Town Branch] officially established today!"
Standing in the living room of her new home, Fujimaru Ritsuka announced with great satisfaction.
Even if the rental apartment is fully furnished, there are still many things that need to be purchased.
So she got busy for the next two days.
"Oh, this must be what they call a housewarming celebration."
Besides daily necessities, you'll also need to buy computers, game consoles, comics, light novels, figurines, and so on.
Today she went to a comic convention and discovered that there were some familiar works in this world, as well as many new faces. She had a lot of fun after a day of browsing, and it was almost nightfall when she finally headed home with a big bag of her spoils.
Carrying a full load of items, slowly walking home, the heavy feeling of a bountiful harvest in your hands is the true essence of shopping!
Stop pretending! I'm Fujimaru Ritsuka, the hidden otaku master who is part of the "Three Otaku Alliance" with Osakabe-hime and Gina!
Even so, ever since she came to Chaldea, she has been either saving the world or on her way to save the world. Even during her rest periods, she has to participate in all sorts of strange and bizarre activities caused by the Servants, which has given her a pretty good figure and physical fitness. She has almost forgotten that she is still an otaku.
Reflecting on this ordinary yet precious day, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but sigh:
"How wonderful, peaceful daily life."
As soon as she finished speaking, Fujimaru Ritsuka inexplicably shivered.
So she muttered to herself, "Could it be that I'm setting a flag for myself?"
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 3 What is supposed to come will always come
In reality, peace isn't as peaceful as it seems.
Besides the murder she encountered shortly after being transferred to this world, she later went to a jewelry store to exchange money and was robbed, once again becoming a hostage to the criminals.
But this time she wasn't the only one taken hostage; there were also staff members inside the jewelry store. And she easily dealt with the robbers without causing any casualties.
By the standards of the Detective Conan world, it's already quite good.
Despite encountering two cases on her very first day in this world, fortunately, the next two days were peaceful, as if the previous events were just her imagination.
"So the past two days should be the normal situation; the first day was just an accident. Logically speaking, even if my luck stat isn't EX, it should at least be A++. How could I be so unlucky?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka provided a reasoned and well-founded analysis.
After all, she was just an ordinary person. If she hadn't been lucky enough, how could she have survived those trials that were like battles between gods?
She's just an ordinary person with a bit of luck.
At least that's what she thought.
In addition, she is still unable to return or contact Chaldea, but her magic and Mystic Codes are still working normally, and her [Spirit Origin Shadow] can be summoned normally, which puts her at ease.
"Ah?"
As she was thinking, she suddenly felt a cool sensation on her nose, and a drop of icy water landed on her face. Looking up, she saw that the sky had been covered by thick, dark clouds, turning it into a dark, oppressive expanse, and it looked like a heavy rain was about to fall.
"Oh no, I forgot my umbrella!"
Her expression changed, and she quickly put the things in her hands into her "Treasures of the Minister" and jogged towards home.
"My Treasures" refers to the lapis lazuli bracelet she wore on her left wrist, a Valentine's Day gift from King Gilgamesh during her youth.
The lapis lazuli bracelet was originally just an ornament, but as she received more and more gifts and needed to carry various items and equipment, she was eventually inspired by the Gate of Babylon. Fujimaru Ritsuka decided to ask the Casters to design a similar Mystic Code and sought the advice of King Gilgamesh.
'Hahahaha! A subject imitating the king? Though it's merely a childish act, like a baby babbling, not bad! I grant permission! Hahahahaha!'
'Furthermore, be grateful, Ritsuka, for I have specially granted it the title of "My Treasure"! Hahahaha!'
That's what King Gilgamesh said.
Although she would prefer to call it "Four-Dimensional Pocket," she couldn't do anything about it since the other party had already said so.
Incidentally, although it was just a brief recollection, the deafening, maniacal laughter seemed to have broken through her memory and entered reality, making her involuntarily recall the fear of being dominated by the Haha Team.
She was really curious: wouldn't laughing like that every day make her voice hoarse?
In short, after obtaining the king's authorization and through the design of a group of Casters, the lapis lazuli bracelet was given a storage space called "The Treasure of the Subject".
Although it can't compare to the real "Golden Gate," it's enough for her.
Back to the point.
As darkness fell, the rain, as expected, intensified, turning from a light drizzle into a torrential downpour that drowned out the city's hustle and bustle.
There were almost no pedestrians on the street in front of her, so Fujimaru Ritsuka quickened her pace. However, just then, a short figure suddenly rushed out from the corner of the intersection ahead.
"!"
Upon spotting the other person, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately stopped, but the slippery ground caused her to slide towards them.
At the crucial moment, she managed to narrowly avoid her opponent thanks to her physical abilities honed over the years, while also managing to keep her balance and avoid slipping to the ground.
The other party also spotted Fujimaru Ritsuka and immediately made a dodge move.
However, the other person's body was far less agile than hers. Just as she was about to make a move, she slipped and fell to the ground in the rain with a 'plop'.
"Little friend, are you alright?! Huh?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka went over to help the other person up, but as she got closer, her expression suddenly turned strange.
The person who almost bumped into her was a little girl, but she was no ordinary little girl.
The reason for this is that the little girl was wearing an adult-sized outfit that was clearly not her size—it looked like a doctor's or researcher's white coat, and beneath her short brown hair was a tender and adorable face.
Although she wasn't familiar with this lovely face, the rainy night, the researcher's white lab coat, the brown hair, and the little girl...
With so many classic elements piled up together, even viewers who have watched "Detective Conan" and are not Sherlock Holmes are capable of making a decent deduction.
If she wasn't mistaken, this 'little one' was probably Shiho Miyano, who had just taken the shrinking pill APTX4869 and escaped from the brewery, and would later become Ai Haibara.
Whether it was because the fall was too hard or because the other person was already weak, she had already collapsed to the ground and lost consciousness.
It's already evening, and it's raining heavily. If we leave it unattended, something bad could easily happen.
At the same time, a voice seemed to resound in her heart:
"After picking up this girl, you're no longer just a passerby. You can no longer experience the peaceful daily life of the world; your surroundings will only be filled with murders, criminals, detectives, undercover agents, and mysterious organizations. Do you have anything else to say?"
"The problem doesn't seem to be that big."
"Forget it, never mind it."
Fujimaru Ritsuka picked up Miyano Shiho from the ground. She was partly responsible for Shiho falling down there, so she couldn't just stand by and do nothing. She decided to go home first.
back home.
Fujimaru Ritsuka first used a towel to wipe Miyano Shiho's wet hair, then dried it with a hairdryer. Next, she changed out of the ill-fitting clothes and covered her with a brand new spare blanket to prevent her from catching a cold.
She is quite skilled at caring for people and children, having learned nursing skills from Nightingale, and also has children of her own, albeit as a child servant.
Moreover, in addition to her children, she also has several mothers (as the other party claims) and wives (as the other party claims) in Gari.
She herself never imagined that before going to Chaldea, she was just an ordinary high school student, and after working at Chaldea for a few years, she would not only be successful in her career but also have a happy family. (Sigh)
Seeing that Shiho Miyano was still unconscious, Ritsuka Fujimaru changed out of her wet clothes, ordered takeout, and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
At that moment, accompanied by the sound of water splashing in the bathroom and the faint sound of a pleasant humming, the eyelashes of the unconscious Shiho Miyano trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes with some difficulty.
