Shirou Emiya stands on the Terra continent

However, Emiya just took it as a sign that the two were familiar with each other and didn't take it too seriously.

Although his first impression of Lappland was not very good, there were actually no major problems with the other party afterwards.

Just as Emiya was thinking this, Lappland suddenly kicked the tables and chairs next to him, blocking the attacks of others.

"..."

Impression-1

After thinking about it, Emiya decided to help out. After all, as long as he didn't come into contact with the other party, there should be no problem, right?

"Trace on─"

A black longbow appeared in Emiya's hand. Feeling the weight of the longbow for the first time in a long time, Emiya directly projected the arrow onto the bowstring.

He didn't feel unfamiliar with the hand because he hadn't used it for a long time. On the contrary, Emiya felt that it was in quite good condition now.

He was not worried about being discovered. Who would have thought that someone would use a bow and arrow to snipe someone from a low building four to five hundred meters away?

As long as there is no bloodshed, there will be no problem.

I learned this from the people at Penguin Logistics, and I also confirmed its authenticity with the people at the Guard Bureau.

As long as you don't make too much noise in the slums, the Guards will basically not intervene.

After all, the structure there is more complicated. Although it seems disordered, there are actually people maintaining the stability of the slums.

Minor fights are just a daily occurrence in the ghetto.

Emiya understood this point, as he had seen a lot of it when he was patrolling at night.

That's why he had no intention of intervening in the fight between the two gangs.

"Just give some support."

Emiya didn't think he could scare off those people by just nailing a few arrows into the ground, and he also had no intention of directly making holes in their bodies.

After all, if he made a hole in those people's bodies, Lappland would probably add another sword to injure them more seriously.

Thinking about how the other party fought last time, Emiya felt that this was very likely to happen.

So he decided to act in a supporting manner.

Support, cover, you name it, it just means to eliminate as many attacks, spells or enemies as possible that may pose a threat to the attackers.

As a sniper that the Imperial Guard Bureau had to carry with them every time they went on duty, it is natural that Emiya would not only focus on attacking the enemy.

He also knew how to eliminate some dangers in advance, and could even accurately snipe away spells and crossbow arrows that had already been cast.

If eliminating dangers and ambushes in advance can be said to be accumulated by relying on experience, then sniping spells and crossbows in flight can only rely on talent.

Of course, there are some spells that Shigeya cannot deal with. If he really encounters them, the heavy-armored attackers will have to work harder.

咻─

Seeing the right moment, the arrow was shot instantly.

It accurately hit the crossbow arrow flying towards Lappland.

"oh?"

Lappland, who had already made evasive moves, naturally saw this scene.

But she didn't take it seriously, thinking that the other party had some problems when attacking and they fought each other.

But once, twice, three times...

After this happened more and more times, not only Lappland, but even the gang members realized that someone was supporting Lappland.

"Are there any helpers?"

He raised his hand and fired another arrow, and the gang member holding the crossbow watched helplessly as his arrow was shot down.

This is a huge blow to one's self-confidence. As a person who uses a crossbow as a weapon, he naturally understands how difficult it is to attack a moving object.

Moreover, the opponent's attack was with crossbows within a dozen meters!

However, the opponent seemed to be a little different from the White Wolf in front of them. If the opponent was not aiming at their crossbows, but at their people...

Then they would probably all die here. He didn't believe that the white wolf in front of him would not stab them again and make them stay in the hospital for a few more days.

"I don't know you. Maybe you are more hated by others?"

Because of this helper who came from nowhere, Lappland always felt that this battle was not satisfying enough.

Anyway, they are just a bunch of thugs. The most they want to do is to let their swords see some blood and warm up their bodies, so there is no need to take it too seriously.

He also mocked the gang members.

"You bastard... let's retreat!"

Seeing Lappland's playful smile, the people from the surrounding gangs were all angry.

The reason for picking on the other party this time was very simple. It was because during the last transaction, the other party spoke in a way that was too arrogant, which made everyone feel unhappy.

That's why this action was taken.

Who knew the other party was so good at fighting! Not only was he good at fighting, but he also had such a disgusting helper!

My mentality suddenly collapsed.

"Hmm~? Don't you want to bring a souvenir back? I recommend the mille-feuille?"

Hearing that several people were planning to retreat, Lappland raised his sword and wanted to move forward.

I originally thought that it was just a few fewer heads, but I didn't expect these people to be so sincere and actually plan to retreat directly?

Now she didn't even have a chance to warm up!

Just as she was about to walk towards those people, an arrow hit her between them.

"Oh, okay, I'll treat you guys to thousand-layer puff pastry next time."

Looking at the arrow, Lappland quickly understood what the other party meant. He put the sword back into the sheath, and then straightened his clothes which had become a little wrinkled due to the previous battle.

"Walk!"

Only after seeing Lappland give up completely did they breathe a sigh of relief.

All the resentment towards that unknown person just now turned into gratitude.

The other party is an angel!

It turns out that he took action to rescue them!

There was no intention of fighting any longer, and the originally crowded intersection became empty in an instant.

"Oh, it's so boring. There are too many rules in Longmen, right? Unfortunately, we have to abide by them. After all, Texas is here!"

Looking at those people who had already run away, Lappland said to himself.

At the same time, he looked around, seeing overturned tables and chairs, shops, and blood and broken weapons on the ground.

Picking up the arrow stuck in the ground to warn her, Lappland sniffed it.

"I have some impression of him, is that the guy?"

Quickly thinking about the people he met after arriving at Longmen, Lappland quickly locked on his target.

That was Emiya, who had met Texas once before and was acquainted with him.

Then she saw the arrow in her hand turn into a blue light and disappear.

"..."

Seeing the only clue disappear, Lapland was silent for a moment.

"Forget it, let's go find that guy first. If it's not him, forget it."

After brushing off the non-existent dust on his hands, Lapland added the next itinerary for himself.

As for where to find him... she didn't know either, but judging from the location where she and Emiya met last time and her current location, the other party should be stationed in this area.

On the other side, after making sure that the dispute over there was resolved, Emiya jumped down again from the previous position and rushed towards the direction of the store.

Because the matters at the office and here had been delayed a little, Emiya felt a little bad.

Even though there wasn't a specific time set, Emiya still felt like he was late.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Soon, Emiya arrived at the store, and it was as deserted as usual.

Just as they expected, the booming business was only temporary, but it was not without results, at least all the inventory was sold.

And there are some more regular customers.

"It's okay to take your time. After all, you're busy too, aren't you, Emiya?"

Ansuo, who was lying on the cashier's desk, said lazily.

The fan next to her was turning non-stop, giving her a bit of coolness in this sultry weather.

"Is it really that hot? Isn't your income pretty good recently? Why don't you consider getting an air conditioner? If it's inconvenient, I can pay for it in advance."

Looking at Anso who had almost turned into purple mochi, Emiya sighed helplessly and said.

"The air conditioner is not the problem, the problem is the subsequent expenses! And if you really want to buy one, you should buy the one for the second-floor dormitory, right? There are only a few of us and some customers in the store usually, it would be a waste to turn on the air conditioner."

Hearing Emiya's words, Ansou perked up a little and said.

She has gone from being a day-glorifier who would spend money as soon as she got it to a budget-conscious person!

You should know that buying some home appliances is not just about paying the money at the moment! You also have to consider the costs of future use and maintenance, which are not cheap when added up!

It would be fine if it was used by many people in the store, but it would be a waste to just keep it in the store!

"Well... I'll go to the kitchen for a minute, and you can get a small stool and put it behind the fan."

Watching Ansou giving him an intense analysis of the spending after shopping, Emiya finally gave up the idea of ​​paying for the air conditioner.

He himself felt that it was a bit of a waste to buy it just for these few days of stuffiness, but if the need arose, then it would be fine to spend it.

Anyway, the salaries at Penguin Logistics and the Guard Bureau are pretty generous.

Walking into the kitchen, Emiya took a large basin and filled it with some ice cubes and cold water, then returned to the cashier counter and placed the basin of cold water behind the fan.

"Ah~ It's so cool~"

Anso, who originally had no idea what Emiya was doing, turned into soft mochi after feeling the cool breeze blowing towards him, and lay down on the table.

"Be careful not to spill it. If it's not cold enough, just pour out the water and add ice cubes."

Looking at Anso's current appearance, Emiya chuckled and reminded him.

However, what he didn't know was that a white wolf had already reached the door of the store and was looking at the people and mochi inside.

"Ha! Found it!"

189 Isn’t This Picture Too Weird?

Looking at the shabby and ordinary little shop in front of her, Lapland was very sure that the person she was looking for was here.

It wasn't that difficult to find. Once she had a rough idea of ​​the location and her sense of smell, finding someone was a piece of cake.

In addition, the other party was not staying in the house, but in a shop.

Through the glass window, Lappland quickly found the other person's figure.

"Your name is...Emiya, right?"

Looking at Emiya who was holding ice water and placing it near the fan in the store and using the fan to help fan the air, Lappland thought for a moment that she looked a bit like a kind old mother who was worried that her child was getting too hot.

“Isn’t this picture too weird?”

Shaking his head, Lappland felt that he must have seen something wrong.

"Take another look."

When he looked again, Emiya was pouring ice water on the purple mochi.

“It’s still weird.”

Squatting down, Lapland wondered if his mineral disease had become too serious, which was why he had this strange hallucination.

In her impression, Emiya performed very well in combat, and he and Texas should have been partners fighting together in the Penguin Logistics.
