The founder of Kabuki: So Zhanzaburo is not my husband, he is my magic costume!

The Almighty: Heroic Spirit, isn’t it amazing?

[“Ah Tian, ​​do you want to know what happened to the monster recently?”

Not long after, Shirou Emiya and his companions, who had successfully sneaked into the village, found a middle-aged farmer.

In this small village with a lack of entertainment and isolated information, any abnormality can easily become a topic of conversation among the villagers after dinner. The farmer in front of him is the most talkative person in the village according to Sakamoto Ryoma's investigation. If anything happens nearby, it's right to ask him.

By the way, Ada is the alias used by Ryoma Sakamoto in this singularity.

After all, in this era, common people didn't have surnames, and Sakamoto Ryoma's name was too conspicuous.

When he was thinking of a pseudonym, Ryoma Sakamoto almost subconsciously thought of the name "Atian". Maybe he thought this name was more common, maybe?

As expected, when the simple farmer heard that the man came to chat with him, he didn't think much about it and just happily told him what he knew.

It turned out that starting about 10 days ago, every night, women in several nearby villages, including here, would be attacked by monsters.

The clothes of the attacked women would have cuts from sharp blades, but there would be no scars on their skin. What was even more bizarre was that they could not be awakened no matter how they were called. Apart from retaining their breathing, they were basically the same as dead.

Some wealthy people sought treatment from famous doctors nearby for their daughters, but all of them were helpless.

Later, some Taoist priests and monks managed to make some sense of the situation and said that the three souls and seven spirits were taken away by a powerful monster.

At this point, the farmer couldn't help but remind Sakamoto Ryoma to not let his wife A-Long go out casually at night, lest A-Long get into trouble.

In response, Sakamoto Ryoma just laughed it off and casually evaded the question. After chatting about some more details, he took Emiya Shirou away.

Afterwards, the three men found a few people in the village to continue inquiring, and the information they obtained was obviously similar to what the farmer said.

At the same time, they also went to the crime scene and detected through Chaldea's equipment that there was indeed residual magical reaction of the Eye Demon at the scene.

There is no doubt that the true identity of the monster this time is the Eye Demon, and as long as he finds it and follows the clues, Shirou Emiya is confident that he can find clues about Sakura Toosaka. As long as he does not encounter the Endsworth family, Shirou Emiya can still try to obtain some information.

There was only one thing that made them feel a little bit urgent. An old man who had some status in the village told the three people that the village chiefs had reported the incident of the monster attacking people to the government and had received a clear reply. It would not be long before the First Emperor would send people to investigate the matter.

Although Himiko was able to help Emiya Shirou and others avoid the predicted detection of Kuaiji Zero by injecting the power of her prayers into the amulet, it was ultimately not a permanent solution.

What if the person sent by the First Emperor has similar abilities to Kuaiji Zero, or is Kuaiji Zero himself? Once the distance is too close, the other party will still be able to sense something is wrong and find them.

This also means that there won't be much time left for Shirou Emiya.

Therefore, in order to get the clues as soon as possible, even though it was a bit risky in the absence of sufficient intelligence, the few people decided to wait and see after discussion, and personally wait for the appearance of the Eye Demon at night.

However, since the village where the Eye Demon appears is not fixed and there is no more intelligence to summarize any rules, the few people can only go to three nearby villages separately and adopt the tactic of casting a wide net.

Among them, Shirou Emiya is in charge of this village.

While waiting, Shirou Emiya discovered that he seemed to be followed.

However, the opponent's tracking technology was very poor. Not only was he discovered by Shirou Emiya, but he also had no idea that Shirou Emiya had discovered him.

Shirou Emiya just took a casual walk around the village and immediately got rid of the other party's entanglement. He even went around from behind and saw the appearance of the pursuer clearly.

It was a little ghost wearing brown cloth. Judging from his neat appearance, he should be a child from a wealthy family. There was no magical reaction on his body.

After confirming that the other party posed no threat, Emiya Shirou was too lazy to hide himself any longer. He appeared behind the child, grabbed the back of the child's collar and lifted him up.

"Hey, kid, why are you following me?"

The child who was suddenly picked up showed extreme panic at first, but after noticing that the person who caught him was the one he was following, he barely suppressed the fear in his heart and spoke to him in a trembling voice.

"I, I saw you guys looking for people in the village to ask about the monster, so I want to track it down with you..."

"Oh?"

This somewhat unexpected answer made Emiya Shirou raise an eyebrow, and he looked at the child carefully with some curiosity.

To be honest, the other party's reaction was very different from that of the few villagers he had met.

Although the people in this singularity spoke with some fear in their tone regarding the monster (eye demon), they actually did not pay too much attention to the matter. As mentioned before, the people here only regarded it as a topic of conversation.

According to Ryoma Sakamoto, when the Eye Demon first started attacking, the villagers were actually quite panicked, but after knowing that the First Emperor was ready to send people to resolve the situation, they completely calmed down and no longer took the matter seriously.

As Lanling Wang said, under the rule of the First Emperor, people without any superfluous thoughts regarded the emperor's orders as absolute truth.

But the child now is a little different, he seems to have his own ideas.

——Is this a coincidence? Or is it?

"Don't you know? His Majesty the Emperor has already said that he will resolve this matter."

In case the news about this child was too slow, Emiya Shirou informed the other party of the premise that the First Emperor would solve the matter, but the other party's reaction was somewhat intriguing.

"This……"

A somewhat complicated expression appeared on the child's face, but he finally shook his head and looked at Emiya Shirou with an inexplicable look.

"Even so, I must find out the truth of this matter myself! I can feel that you have similar ideas to mine."

The boy took a deep breath, clenched his small fists as if to cheer himself up, and said something that shocked Emiya Shirou.

"I know you are the criminals wanted by His Majesty the Emperor. If you don't take me with you, I will definitely go and report you!"

Faced with the boy's shocking words, Emiya Shirou narrowed his eyes.

——It seems that the boy is more special than I thought. 】

680: Eye Soul World Love Debt King (4k)

[As a Japanese citizen born in the 21st century, what kind of experience is it to be threatened by an ancient Qin man who looks only about 10 years old with the words "XX, you don't want XX to know about this, right?"

If Emiya Shirou were to say, it was quite subtle, with a sense of confusion as if the roles had suddenly been reversed.

Hearing the young man's threatening words that were timid but powerful, Emiya Shirou held back for a long time before he refrained from slapping the brat on the head. He just continued to hold the boy's collar, with a deliberately ferocious look on his face.

"You dare to say that even though I have all your people in my hands, kid? Aren't you afraid that I will just shut you up forever?"

"You won't do that!"

But Shirou Emiya's threat did not shake the boy's mind. He looked seriously at the red-haired young man's pretending to be ferocious face, and faced the latter head-on with a calmness that was inconsistent with his age, without dodging or evading.

Those overly clear and upright eyes made Emiya Shirou slightly restrain his facial expression, and a look of interest appeared in his eyes.

"You are not me, how do you know what I would do?"

"I actually followed you secretly for a long time and observed the way you talked to the villagers."

The boy's tone became serious. He knew that this was a test from Emiya Shirou and also an opportunity to gain his trust.

“Although your words and deeds are not gentlemanly and even a little rude, you have never looked at the villagers with any malice, and you have never used force to intimidate them even when you were armed.

Such a person would never lay hands on a child like me, at least that's what I thought. Rather than approaching you in a veiled way, it would be most appropriate to clarify the interests involved here."

"Humph."

Although Shirou Emiya showed disdain on the surface, he actually looked up to the young man in his heart.

——Sure enough, this boy is not an ordinary child. Compared with ordinary children in the village, his knowledge and conversation are too mature.

While investigating the Eye Demon, a strange child suddenly appeared and kept saying that he wanted to go with him to find the truth about the Eye Demon incident.

At first glance, it was indeed quite suspicious, but Shirou Emiya thought again, if this child really had other purposes, wouldn't it be more convenient for him to hide his abnormality from the beginning?

Shirou Emiya thought that he was not a cunning person. Since the other party could easily see through his character, he would naturally know how to act so as to gain his trust more easily.

But the child deliberately did not do so, and instead chose to be honest with himself.

Shirou Emiya felt that this seemed to be a rare opportunity for a breakthrough, not only in this Eye Demon incident, but also possibly a breakthrough in this difficult singularity.

His mind raced, but Emiya Shirou finally let go of the boy.

"Tell me why you want to get to the bottom of this."

"Ah."

Seeing that Emiya Shirou was planning to give in, the boy's eyes immediately lit up and he began to explain to the other party the reasons for his actions.

The young man in front of him called himself Zidu, which was not too surprising to Shirou Emiya. He said that he was the young master of a wealthy family in Xianyang. Then he ignored the opposition from his family and came here alone to investigate the monster's night attack.

According to Zidu's account, this was not the first time such an incident had occurred in the past three years.

It started near Xianyang, and then gradually spread outward from near to far. However, because the intervals were approximately between half a year and a year, and the people attacked had no regularity in terms of location or characteristics, most civilians believed that these were the work of different monsters and did not take it seriously.

In addition, the First Emperor always handled the situation extremely quickly. Whenever something like this happened, he would send his men to suppress it within half a month and bring back the rebellious monsters that had been burned to death to be made public, so many people did not notice anything unusual.

After all, monsters and beasts are not uncommon in this era. In the past, due to the backward information transmission, it was normal for monsters to occupy villages and cause chaos for a year or two before the court sent troops to suppress them. On the contrary, now the First Emperor was able to keep the casualties of his people to a few fingers every time, which made his people celebrate throughout the country.

At first, Zidu did not feel anything wrong about this, but by chance he caught a glimpse of some clues.

There were slight differences between the "prisoners" brought back by the imperial army and the situations described by the victims in the files, but no one in the entire Xianyang Palace raised any objections to this. All the cases revealed a sense of haste with a hasty ending, as if they were forcibly telling the whole world that the problem had been solved.

This made Zidu feel an inexplicable palpitation, so he decided to investigate the matter himself without telling his family.

After listening to Zidu's story, Emiya Shirou couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

He and Chaldea originally thought that this was just an ordinary Eye Demon incident, the arbitrary behavior of the people in the Eye Demon world in the singularity.

But now it seems that things are far from as simple as they imagined. The Qin forces that were thought to be here to solve the incident now seem more like the ones who came to hide the incident.

This instead aroused Shirou Emiya's curiosity about the matter.

It seems that in the current situation, even if he can't find Toosaka Sakura, he must find out the truth of this incident no matter what.

At the same time, Shirou Emiya also had some guesses about Zidu's identity. Although he claimed to be the young master of a wealthy family in Xianyang, it was impossible for a young master who had access to the files of the Imperial Army to have a simple identity.

So he agreed to the boy's request to act together and made regular contact with Chaldea.

……

Time quickly came to night, and the village, which was bustling during the day, was now completely plunged into silence and darkness.

And perhaps it was really fate, the legendary blade monster actually chose to act in the village where Shirou Emiya was stationed.

A lavender mist began to spread throughout the village under the moonlight. Brisk footsteps echoed in the mist. A tall figure walked on the path in the village. The sharp blade in his hand flickered across house after house like a butterfly. The happy killer began to choose his prey for the night.
