"Senior really cares about this kind of thing. Mitsuri-senpai often says that although Lin Yan-senpai is careless, he is too polite and talkative." Matou Sakura laughed. Mitsuri is the captain of the archery club and seems to get along very well with Emiya Shirou. Their relationship must be more than just casual.

"That guy, he's talking bad about me to Sakura again?"

"Yes, my senior said she must show him a good shot with a bow and arrow before he graduates, so she practices very hard every day now."

"Right now, it's obvious that Mizuki's rank is higher. That's just how it is, memories are always invincible. Although being romanticized isn't necessarily a bad thing, it varies from person to person."

"Because Mizuki-senpai really dislikes losing, I think she must see her senior as a formidable rival."

"Sister Fujii should be here soon. Oh well, it's not her fault if she's not here by this time. Sakura, let's start eating."

"That's true. Here, senior, please have some."

The atmosphere was very harmonious. Lin Yan glanced at the breakfast, which was quite plentiful. For Lin Yan, who wasn't picky about food, it didn't really matter what kind of food it was.

"Fujimura-sensei, I think it's better not to read the newspaper while eating, okay?" Fujimura ignored Sakura's words and continued doing as he pleased.

"Sorry. Sakura, could you get me some soy sauce?" Lin Yan broke the silence, though he was also worried that things might get too tense, which would be a bad thing.

"Oh no, senior! You ran out of soy sauce yesterday!"

“Then Sister Teng’s is fine too, bring it over.”

"Fujimura-sensei, is that alright?"

"Yes." Fujimura nodded.

"Here, please have some. Would you like some yam soup, senior?"

"Yes. Generally speaking, yam soup is served with soy sauce, right?"

"What is this? It tastes awful! This is seasoning! And it's oyster sauce!" Lin Yan couldn't help but spit it out. The taste was indeed very strange, but he didn't know why his yam soup was served with soy sauce. According to his usual habits, it shouldn't be like this. He was probably influenced by Emiya Shirou.

"Hahahaha! How about that? This is the great operation of swapping the labels of seasonings and soy sauce early in the morning!" Even at twenty-five years old, Fujimura is still so childish. He really goes all out to prank Shirou Emiya, always coming up with new tricks.

"What are you thinking about so early in the morning! You're already twenty-five, Sister Teng, and you're still acting like this!"

"Hmph, now you know how much I hated you yesterday. Those who ganged up with everyone to bully my sister, isn't this divine retribution their just deserts?"

"Heavenly punishment isn't man-made, is it?! I was wondering why you were so well-behaved; turns out you've been plotting this since yesterday, you idle busybody!"

"Yeah. So now I have to hurry up and get my exam scores. Yeah, so if I don't act fast, it'll be bad."

"Okay, I'm full. Today's breakfast was delicious too, Sakura."

"Yes. Just some simple food, teacher."

"I'll be going now. You two, I'll be angry if you're late."

"Um...senior?"

"Sorry, I can't even enjoy my precious breakfast properly because of that Teng-jie guy."

"No, I wasn't talking about that. What did you do to Fujimura-sensei yesterday, senior? Tampering with the food, that's a bit too much for Fujimura-sensei."

"No, it's because I accidentally called her by her nickname yesterday."

"No wonder, senior didn't apologize to Fujimura-sensei, did he?"

"Because it was such an ordinary thing, I forgot about it."

"That won't do, because Fujimura-sensei dislikes it when you call her by her nickname. You must have made her cry again."

"She was crying and then ran away like a rabbit. Thanks to her, I had time to study in English class yesterday."

"Really. Then it was all my fault this morning, senpai." Matou Sakura still liked Fujimura, and in situations like this, she would usually side with Fujimura, who was usually a girl, and said with a hint of annoyance.

……

"Are you concerned about the news just now, Sakura?"

"No, no. I just thought that if the accident happened in Xindu, it's quite close. Senior, you work in Xindu, right?"

"Yes, but it's not that big of a store. I don't think an accident like the one reported in the news will happen." That was a news report about a gas leak, but this time the incident was very serious; it seems hundreds of people were hospitalized.

0003 The man who came to participate in the Holy Grail War but became a repairman [Please subscribe]

Ryudou Kazunari is classmates with Emiya Shirou, Matou Shinji, and Goto Kazui. Their homeroom teacher is Fujimura Taiga, the English teacher at Homurahara High School.

He met Shirou when he was in first grade, and they quickly became very good friends.

When he was in the student council, he was a completely different person from his usual tolerant self. He became a devilish student council president and was a very strict person within the student council.

However, she was very popular among the girls at school.

He never runs in the hallways, even in an emergency, as the school rules forbid it. He works diligently both in the mornings and after school.

There has always been a desire to reform the unfair allocation of funds in the original student department of Suiqun, but the reform of club funding and activities has also caused dissatisfaction among many sports-related clubs, leading to a tense relationship between the two sides.

He was troubled by the question of who would succeed him as student council president after he graduated. The lack of a successor meant that even if Ryudou Kazunari moved up to his third year, he would have to continue serving as student council president. He once complained to Emiya Shirou that if Emiya Shirou were his junior, he would want to hand over the position of student council president to Shirou.

Lin Yan glanced at Shirou's best friend, who was dressed in standard school uniform, had short purple hair, and wore round-framed glasses, and smiled.

"Indeed, hot tea that numbs the tongue tastes best in the morning."

What are we going to do today?

"Anyway, let's sit down and have a drink first. That's what I wanted to say, but I don't have time... Let's explain as we move around. Let's use our usual props."

"To be honest, our school is very extreme in its approach to money."

"I know that we're giving special consideration to sports clubs, so there's no other budget left, right?"

"The members of the Cultural Studies Department are being treated unfairly. Although I have tried my best to budget for the Cultural Studies Department clubs this year, things haven't gone smoothly because the budget's allocation is unclear. As a result, the classrooms for the Cultural Studies Department clubs are still in poor condition. In particular, the lack of heating in winter is a problem that we simply cannot solve."

"Okay, give me the biggest flathead screwdriver. And bring the wires too, that should be about right."

"Wire? Hmm, this? Sorry, I'm not very good at distinguishing them. Feel free to scold me if I'm wrong."

"If that's correct, then it's alright. So what if the heater isn't working properly? Are there any other malfunctions or anything?"

"Yes, the heaters in the second audiovisual classroom and the art club seem to be faulty. There are more and more petitions requesting that new heaters be purchased."

"But there's no budget for that. It turns out it's just deterioration. As long as there are no abnormalities, that's good."

"Can it be fixed, Lin Yan?"

"It can be repaired. It's easier to understand the old parts at times like this. It's just a short circuit in the wiring; once we replace it with new ones, it should be working properly this year."

"Oh, I see! That's amazing, Lin Yan. I'm so happy to have you here."

"It'll be over in a minute, you can go out for a bit."

"We must not disturb Lin Yan. This is an agreement that Shirou and Ryudou Kazunari have made. Every time this happens, Ryudou Kazunari will leave knowingly. And now he left the classroom without hesitation."

"No, it is quite precise if you want to talk about precision." Lin Yan was touching an old electric heater. As soon as he closed his eyes, he could feel the internal structure of the heater. After seeing the problem, Lin Yan opened the outer shell and began to repair it by hand.

"That's all, let's move on to the next one." Lin Yan skillfully packed up his things. This was actually unfamiliar to Lin Yan, something like repairing electrical appliances. However, Shirou's memories and abilities had been taken over, so Lin Yan possessed his abilities and memories.

I carefully collected the used wires, grabbed a screwdriver and a wrench, and went to the hallway.

"One-tenth of the work has been completed."

Lin Yan spotted a female student immediately. She was also in his memory bank. Her name was Rin Tohsaka, and she was from Class 2-A.

Rin Tohsaka's father, Tokiomi Tohsaka, was killed by his disciple, Kirei Kotomine, during the Fourth Holy Grail War, and her mother, Aoi Tohsaka, also died during the Fourth Holy Grail War. Kirei Kotomine, who concealed the truth, became Rin's guardian and mentor.

He was raised from childhood to be the heir to the prestigious Tohsaka family, who manage the lands of Fuyuki, and a true magician.

Like Shirou, she is a second-year student at the private Homurahara Academy. She pretends to be a perfect model student at school, but she does so in many ways.

As if by fate, she summoned the future Heroic Spirit "Emiya" as Archer, who then participated in the Fifth Holy Grail War as its Master.

Rin Tohsaka's gaze was hostile; it seemed there was some truth to the rumors that she and Kazunari Ryudou didn't get along.

"I'm sorry. I was the one who asked you to do it, but Lin Yan did it all." Ryudou Kazunari completely ignored Tohsaka Rin, treating her like air, which really shows his profound skill.

"Don't worry about that. Which side is next? There's not much time left."

"Next up is the audiovisual classroom, which seemed to be acting strangely before, but this time it has finally met its end."

"If it dies of old age, it can't be repaired, so it's better to buy a new one."

"That's right, please take a look and help me out. Although I look like I'm dying, you might be faking it."

"Then give it a try."

"Don't worry about it. It's not a big deal if I'm late. But if Ichisei is late, that's a problem."

"It's great that we made it in time. Ryudo Kazunari arrived right on time, exactly at eight o'clock, not too early or too late. The preparatory bell rang, and Fujimura also walked into the classroom."

"You're busy early this morning, Lin Yan. I was wondering what you were doing after you quit the club. Were you trying to curry favor with Ryudo? Even though it has nothing to do with me, don't do anything that will damage our club's reputation, because you have no integrity. The person who's talking so sarcastically is Matou Shinji, he's Matou Sakura's older brother. This man may seem like a minor character, but he actually has quite a bit of screen time."

Because Sakura was unwilling to participate in the Holy Grail War, Shinji seized the opportunity to ask Zouken to let him fight in Sakura's place, and Zouken readily agreed. Sakura then used a Command Seal to create the "Book of False Servants," transferring control of Rider. Therefore, Sakura is Rider's true master. Even when Shinji is controlling Rider, her actions consume Sakura's magical energy.

Shinji treats Sakura extremely harshly, even subjecting her to humiliation and abuse in some storylines and the TV series. Sakura once disobeyed Shinji's orders to stay by Shirou's side, missing the archery club's morning practice. Feeling he was about to lose face, Shinji flew into a rage and forbade Sakura from going to Shirou's house that day. Fortunately, Rin Tohsaka was present and stopped him. There are also scenes where he forces Sakura to do things she doesn't want to do when she's unwell. However, Sakura remains gentle and tolerant towards Shinji. Even after Shinji forbids her from going to Shirou's house, Sakura still tells Shirou to treat Shinji well, "Because you're my only friend."

0004 Lin Yan: Failure is due to a lack of desire for success [Please subscribe]

"How's the archery club going, Shinji?"

"Of course! It's no use talking to outsiders, but it's much more peaceful without that show-off. We'll be able to get a good ranking at the next competition!"

"In that case, Mizuki also worked very hard."

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about? The archery club was able to break the record because of me. Lin Yan, you're an outsider now. It's embarrassing to talk to me like you know me so well."

"I see, I'll keep that in mind. But I don't need to contact the archery club, so it shouldn't be related, right?"

"What do you mean? Are you saying you're not interested in my archery club?"

"It's not out of interest, it's just that I'm free. I'm an outsider now, it would be strange for me to just wander into the dojo. But if there's anything you need, just say so. I'll help if I can. Shinji isn't very good at drawing bows or repairing them, is he?"

"Okay, thanks. I'll call you if there's anything else I need. But I doubt there will be anything like that."

"That's good. People who leave behind miscellaneous tasks are not qualified to be commanders. Don't make Fujimura-sensei angry too often. That person is really scary when he gets angry."

"Hmph, mind your own business. Anyway, you're an outsider now, so don't come near the dojo. Matou Shinji is self-centered and often looks down on others. Although he is outstanding in appearance and loved by women, he is easily disliked by his own sex. Moreover, he was born into a family of magicians and has a strong sense of being a chosen one. At the same time, he grew up with an inferiority complex because he doesn't have magic circuits. This inferiority complex has unknowingly distorted his personality, and he has begun to abuse Sakura, who has magic circuits."

His kindness towards others is based on the superiority or inferiority relationship between them; it is kindness towards the "weak".

Basically, he's a typical, hateful, and pathetic character, like a clown. Since he's a clown, Lin Yan won't waste time arguing with him. He understands Shirou's way of handling things and will deal with it the way he does.

Shinji Matou's scheme failed, so he returned to his seat. Although Shinji Matou usually has a very cheeky demeanor, he seemed somewhat irritable at this moment.

"What a talkative fellow! He was the one who kicked Lin Yan out, yet he dares to say such things."

"How come you're here, Yicheng?"

"What do you mean, 'what happened'?! Why are you being so cold to your friend who's listening with concern?!"

"Why are you concerned? I haven't done anything to worry about."

"Idiot, of course I'd worry. Lin Yan gets angry easily. Even though everyone will cheer if he beats up Shinji, the girls will be furious. It's not good to put your friend in such a delicate position."

"In that case, if I had to say something, it would be this. Thank you, Yicheng. Although it won't turn out that way, thank you for your concern earlier."

"Good to know. But I'm quite surprised. Lin Yan is clearly easily angered, yet he's very forgiving towards Matou, that's just how he is. Come on, if you understand, go back to your seat, Fujimura-sensei is practically flying in."

"It's less like she's flying and more like she's floating."

Sure enough, Fujimura rushed in the next second. The tutor of Class 2-C, Fujimura Taiga, was nicknamed "Tiger," a very fitting nickname.

Although Ms. Fujimura is a woman, she has a very masculine name like Fujimura Taiga. She's 25 years old and has a naive and straightforward personality. She teaches English and is the advisor for the archery club. A fifth-dan in kendo, she's known as the "Tiger of Fuyuki" (although she hates the nickname, many of her personal items actually have tiger stripes). Not only that, she sometimes acts eccentrically, running away from the classroom when called by a nickname. After Kiritsugu's death, she takes care of Shirou, who calls her "Fujimura-nee" (or "Fujimura-nee").

Fujimura-sensei's grandfather was Fujimura Raiga, a yakuza boss, so her family was very wealthy. Entrusted by Kiritsugu, she took care of Shirou as his older sister and often came to Shirou's house for meals.

She usually acts as Shirou's guardian, likes Shirou very much, and also has a good relationship with Sakura.

Moreover, he seems to have a good relationship with Kiritsugu.

He was also someone who had strong likes and dislikes and was accustomed to using a "tiger bamboo knife".

"Class begins. Duty officer, give the order."

……

"Excuse me, do you have a moment, Lin Yan? We need to continue what we were doing this morning. Do you have time today?"

"No, I do have a plan. Shirou Emiya would probably refuse, but it doesn't matter. Generally, Lin Yan would refuse, but at this moment, Lin Yan has changed his plan," he said.

"Plan changed. Let's continue with what we did this morning; leave it to me. The equipment repairs need to be finished before the exam."

"Now that we're saved, let's go check on the patients in the art club."
