Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

Joan of Arc's freezing power had absolutely no way to penetrate it.

Unless she can reach Esdeath's level, which allows her to freeze evolution directly.

"Emiya?"

Kinji Toyama asked, somewhat uncertainly.

After all, this was the first time he had seen Shirou Emiya wearing this armor up close.

Its beast-like form and scorching breath.

It created an indescribable sense of oppression.

"it's me!"

A familiar voice came from inside the armor.

Shirou Emiya placed Jeanne d'Arc on the ground, and the "Demon Possession" spell quickly transformed into a short sword in his hand.

"Where is the [Armed Detective Assassin]?"

Emiya Shirou looked around and glanced at Toyama Kinji, Aria, and Riko.

Then, with an expression of utter confusion, he looked at Joan of Arc behind him.

Chapter 411 The Timely Appearance of Teacher Yoru

The atmosphere suddenly turned cold, and Riko looked at Jeanne, whose hands were handcuffed, with a puzzled expression.

Wasn't the original plan to have Jeanne d'Arc stall Shirou Emiya?

Why did you bring him here again?

Riko believes she still has a chance of winning against the combination of Kinji Toyama and Aria.

But if we add Emiya Shirou...

No, rather, even if it were just Shirou Emiya alone, Riko believed she had no chance of winning.

When Shirou Emiya was fighting Kinji and Aria Toyama, a little thought revealed that Shirou Emiya was not using his full strength.

Before joining the Assault Department, Shirou Emiya knew absolutely nothing about guns; he was a complete novice when it came to firearms.

In their eyes, Shirou Emiya's strength lay in his swordsmanship, which could easily deflect bullets.

However, during the battle, Shirou Emiya ended the fight by primarily using spear techniques and secondarily using sword techniques.

It can be said that he defeated Aria and Kinji Toyama, who are also S-class armed detectives, using a fighting style that he was not good at.

"It's over, Riko. Emiya is here now, so your plan can't continue!"

Kinji Toyama stepped forward and looked at Riko, who was slightly stunned.

He had no idea what Riko was planning to do next.

But it's clear that Shirou Emiya's appearance was not part of her plan.

Emiya Shirou's strength is evident to all, and his presence here gave them a great sense of security.

Unless Riko has other tricks up her sleeve, it will be difficult for her to make any other moves with Shirou Emiya here.

Do you think I'd just surrender like this?

As if recalling something, Riko's expression turned extremely painful and crazed, a maniacal smile appearing from the corner of her mouth, her golden hair instantly covered by red light.

Without any hesitation, Riko gripped her twin pistols tightly and used all her strength to push off the ground with her right foot.

She rushed toward Aria's location at the maximum speed she could reach.

That was the speed of a cheetah.

Almost no one was able to react to Riko's sudden attack.

For some reason, Kinji Toyama seemed to sense a strong emotion emanating from Riko.

That was the madness of desperately trying to break free from the cage.

Even if it means giving up one's own life, even if it means abandoning everything —

Aria was caught off guard by the sudden turn of events. Before she could even react, Riko appeared in front of her.

"Aria!"

Kinji Toyama exclaimed in surprise to Aria beside him, not expecting Riko to be able to unleash such speed at this moment.

At this distance, he has no way to provide Aria with any support.

As for Shirou Emiya, a Japanese fan appeared in his hand when no one was paying attention.

However----

"boom--!"

A gunshot rang out from an unknown source within the warehouse.

This was accompanied by the heavy thud of bullets hitting the bulletproof uniform.

"Well--!"

A cry of pain escaped Riko's lips as she fell to the ground from the force of the gunshot.

"!"

Before anyone could react to this sudden turn of events, they were all trying to find the source of the gunshot.

"It's over, [Armed Detective Assassin]. Stop making any more futile struggles!"

An elegant voice came from behind Aria.

The warehouse hatch had been opened at some point, and a figure gradually emerged from it.

"Teacher Yoru!"

Kinji Toyama looked at Yoru-sensei, who was walking over with great elegance, with extreme surprise.

Unexpectedly, it was Teacher Koyomi who stepped in at the last moment.

"Never let your guard down until the criminal is incapacitated. Isn't that what I've always taught you?"

The smile on Ms. Koyomi's face turned serious at that moment, and she spoke to everyone present in a reprimanding tone.

"sorry!"

Kinji Toyama quickly apologized.

If he had been more vigilant at that time, Aria would not have been threatened by Riko.

Upon seeing the appearance of Teacher Yoru, Shirou Emiya quietly put his fan back into his hat.

Just as Shirou Emiya was about to use gravity to restrict Riko's movement, he saw Yoruichi, the teacher, appear at the hatch holding a pistol.

Otherwise, the moment Riko was about to approach Aria, she would be pinned to the floor by gravity and unable to move.

"hypocritical!"

Beside Shirou Emiya, Jeanne looked at Yoruichi, who was walking down, with utter disgust, and berated him mercilessly.

Riko lay on the ground, whether because of the powerful bullet from Yoru-sensei or because she already knew her fate.

She didn't move at all, just curled up on the ground.

"They've already become prisoners, shouldn't their attitude be a little better?"

Ms. Koyomi's ears twitched slightly, as if she had heard Jeanne's evaluation of her. She then instructed Kinji Toyama and Aria to handcuff Riko and head towards Jeanne's location.

"Ah!"

Jeanne looked at Yoruichi walking in front of her with utter disdain, her eyes filled with disgust.

"Shh-!"

Amidst the sharp gust of wind, the hand of Teacher Koyomi, standing in front of Jeanne, gripped Jeanne's neck fiercely, as if it were a tool.

"!"

The sudden turn of events caught Shirou Emiya off guard, preventing him from stopping Yoru's actions.

After all, from the very first time he met Teacher Xiaoyeming, he had always displayed a gentle, refined, and extremely elegant aristocratic demeanor.

Although Shirou Emiya felt a little strange about Yoru-sensei.

But since he didn't belong to this world at all, Shirou Emiya didn't think about it too much.

"Snapped--!"

The next second, Shirou Emiya slapped Yoru's hand away.

On Jeanne's neck, where she was restrained by Teacher Koyomi, two dark marks appeared, and blood slowly flowed from the marks.

"ha--!"

"ha--!"

Joan of Arc seemed to suddenly be able to breathe, and began to gasp for breath.

At that moment, she felt the threat of death.

At such close range, she had no time to react and use her abilities.

"Teacher Yoru, what are you doing!"

Emiya Shirou quickly pulled Jeanne over from beside Koyomiya-sensei, frowning as he looked at Koyomiya-sensei, whose aura had suddenly changed.

If the young Yeming of the past was someone who would be perceived as incredibly elegant and gentle, a noble young lady...

In that brief moment, Xiao Yeming gave off the feeling of a ferocious beast, with a menacing aura emanating from him.

"Emiya-kun, Article 9 of the Armed Detective Charter states that Armed Detectives must not kill under any circumstances, but that doesn't mean they can't use special means, right?"

A smile returned to Ms. Koyomi's face.

As if nothing had just happened, the ferocious aura that had been emanating from Teacher Xiaoyeming vanished without a trace.
