Shirou Emiya stands on the Terra continent

Emiya tilted his head in confusion.

"Nothing, if it's Anso..."

Looking at Emiya's appearance, Ji roughly understood the relationship between him and Shi Huaiya.

Emiya looks harmless and kind-hearted, maybe he's been noticed?

But these have nothing to do with him, a common man, so it’s better not to say too much. He doesn’t want to disappear from Longmen.

Ji briefly told Emiya some of the things he knew about Anso.

To put it simply, a child is infected and cannot find a proper job, so he relies on stealing to make a living, and then he becomes a frequent visitor to the Guard Bureau.

According to her, life in the Imperial Guards Prison was actually not bad, but she had to receive ideological education, otherwise she would have settled in prison.

"…If you see her later, help me give these to her. I just broke her rope."

After listening to what Jie said about the dark lock, Shi Gong chose to draw a few Longmen coins and gave them to Jie, asking him to give them to the other party when he encountered the dark lock.

After all, Emiya had just destroyed Anso's grappling hook, and according to Ji, that seemed to be the equipment that Anso relied on for survival.

If it was in the previous world, Emiya would definitely teach the other person a lesson and hand him over to the police, but here...

Call him a pushover or a hypocrite, he knows that such behavior is wrong.

But in this land, there are many children like Anso, and she is just trying her best to survive.

"Okay, I'll give it to her."

After taking the Lungmen coin from Emiya's hand, Jie didn't ask any more questions.

He has seen many people like Emiya, but compared to others who only talk, people like Emiya who take action are relatively rare.

Ji always felt that Emiya should be able to get along with Guihu, but compared to Emiya, Guihu was more rigid. If it was Guihu today, little Anso would definitely have to go to the Guards Bureau to receive delicious meals and ideological education.

"Then trouble you."

Shirou was originally a little worried that Jie would ask something, but when he saw that the other party didn't ask any more questions, he felt relieved.

As for whether the other party will embezzle it?

Please, the other party is someone that Hoshiguma Sir knows, and Emiya trusts Hoshiguma's judgment.

90 Penguin Logistics' Secret Meeting

Dinner, Penguin Logistics Dormitory, on the dining table.

Looking at the large amount of delicious food on the table, Angelica had no appetite at all. It was not because she hated the dishes or because she was full from eating apple pie.

Under Emiya's strong threat... bah, it's a request, if Angelica dares to eat too much apple pie before dinner, then she won't be able to see apple pie for the next few days.

If you are caught, your sentence will be doubled and your three meals will be replaced with vegetable salads.

Having suffered at the hands of Emiya, Archangel Exiah knew very well that Emiya would definitely do it for real, so she was very obedient.

What? It's okay to cheat on your partner outside?

She wants to, too! But her three teammates are all Emiya's spies! If they catch her making a mistake, they will get extra desserts. This method is really evil!

Let's get back to the topic. Angelica really has no appetite right now. Even though in front of her there is a perfectly roasted scaled beast with a buttery aroma, and a thick soup with a milky aroma, Angelica... well, she is still a little greedy.

The main reason why she lost her appetite was because the face of Emiya in front of her was not very good. She didn't know how to describe it, but to put it simply... it was probably like remembering her past middle school memories and still couldn't let go?

Hiss…Does the serious Emiya also have a chuunibyou past?

Thinking of this, Angel became somewhat interested, but this matter can be put aside for now and discussed later when there is time. The most urgent task now is to confirm why Emiya is like this now.

Under the table, Angel's feet slowly kicked Croissant's feet twice.

"Gu?"

Croissant, with a large amount of rice still in his mouth, raised his head and looked under the table, and found that it was the Angel from next door who was calling him with her feet.

He raised his head and looked at Exia, and the other's eyes flickered in Emiya's direction.

Croissant glanced at Emiya, then lowered his head and took another sip of soup.

No reaction at all.

"I said croissant, didn't you feel something was wrong?"

Seeing the other person's heartless look, Archangel moved closer to Croissant and whispered.

"I had the same expression when I couldn't sell my stuff. Why didn't you come over to worry about me?"

Croissant naturally knew what Angel was worried about, but couldn't they talk about it after dinner?

It would be a grave sin if the food cooked by Emiya's mother got cold!

And Croissant also knew that Emiya was a good person, so he could understand that when he looked embarrassed, others would notice and express concern.

You have to know that she also had something on her mind and was ignored! Although she brought this upon herself, she is still unhappy.

"So it's because of the lack of money... I remember the salary should be paid in the past two days."

After analyzing Croissant's words, Angel felt that it was most likely because of the salary.

All of Emiya's expenses so far were borrowed from the Emperor, and afterwards it seemed that he had only used it as meal expenses for everyone at Penguin Logistics.

If she were in his shoes, she would indeed worry about her salary, after all, it affects her future life.

No, she eats Emiya's meals now, so it seems she doesn't have to worry about it anymore?

No! She hasn't paid for that batch of etched ammunition yet! This month is over!

As she was thinking, the Angel of Death suddenly realized that she didn't seem to worry about Emiya's financial resources. She didn't even know whether she had enough money to be free this month.

Although Emiya's food is really delicious, no matter how much he is persuaded, Emiya just won't make apple pie.

How abominable!

Turning grief and anger into appetite, Angel picked up the chopsticks and began to clean up the meal in front of him.

"..."

Emiya watched as Exiah abnormally stopped eating, whispered with Croissant, and finally ate the food with a look of grief and indignation on her face.

Although something seemed strange, but when I thought about it being an Archangel, it seemed to be no problem.

If it was someone like Texas or Sora, Emiya would probably be more worried.

As for Exia and Croissant... he would also be worried if the situation didn't last for more than two days.

Well, maybe you'd be worried?

At this time, Emiya had no idea that his condition had affected the people in Penguin Logistics.

After concentrating on finishing the meal in front of him, Emiya wanted to clean up as usual, but was pushed into a chair by several people from Penguin Logistics.

"Just take a good rest, Emiya! Leave the dishes and cleaning to us!"

Sora said as he cleared the dishes from the dining table.

"That's right, you look very tired, leave the cleanup to us."

Croissant said while holding the dishes that Sora had sorted out.

Texas and Exiah on the side started cleaning with wet rags.

"Uh…thank you?"

Looking at Penguin Logistics who had suddenly become diligent, Emiya felt like something was odd.

Don't you usually lie on the sofa and watch TV or play with your phone after eating? Why are you so diligent all of a sudden?

Emiya began to think, began to wonder, then gave up struggling and took out his cell phone to see if there were any messages today.

Anyway, they weren't doing anything bad, so Emiya just assumed that they were just doing something on a whim.

Emiya took a look and found that Xuezhi had responded to some of the things he asked her in the morning regarding the book. After reading her straightforward explanation, Emiya was able to solve some of the questions that had been confusing him.

As for the Penguin Logistics people in the kitchen, after entering the kitchen, Angel locked the kitchen door, and then started a secret meeting of Penguin Logistics while tidying up the kitchen.

Meeting topic: What happened to Emiya?

Location: Kitchen

Participants: Texas, Angel, Croissant, Sora

"What do you think of Emiya's appearance tonight?"

Angel started the conversation while washing the dishes.

"I'm not sure, but what we can confirm is that Emiya was fine during the training ground, so he must have encountered something during the time since we separated."

Sora expressed his opinion while taking the cleaned plate from the Angel and wiping it dry.

She had just noticed that something was wrong with Emiya, but she couldn't just rush up to him and ask him what happened.

After all, everyone has some worries and things they want to hide. Since Emiya didn't say it, they wouldn't ask any more questions. At most, they would gather people except the parties involved and express their opinions like they are doing now.

People like Lotte, Angelica, and Croissant also have their own concerns. For example, Angelica came to Penguin Logistics just to pursue talents, while Croissant's reason is simpler, which is just for money.

"It's not that serious, is it? Are you guys overly worried? Maybe Emiya just read something in a book recently and suddenly became a literary young man!"

Looking at his teammates, Croissant couldn't help but complain.

Life is long, and there will always be times of sorrow. Why is it that when Emiya has troubles, everyone acts as if they have encountered a great enemy?

But there is no food... *Longmen swear*!

Croissant suddenly figured out why everyone was so worried about Emiya!

She is worried now too! What if Emiya doesn't cook?

"I take that back. I think we should deal with Emiya's problem this time. What do you think, Texas?"

Croissant, who had figured it out, changed his attitude and asked Texas seriously.

"…No."

Texas, who was inexplicably dragged into this meeting, has not yet grasped the situation, but from the conversation between several people, he seems to be concerned about Emiya's condition.

Texas felt that they were probably worrying too much. Emiya's appearance just now was probably just due to fatigue. Emiya had been exercising continuously in the afternoon, so it was normal for him to feel tired.

Also, these two guys, Exia and Croissant, who have their heads full of dirty trash, are always dancing in front of Emiya. Does that make Emiya tired?

Ultimately, it was because Emiya was too indulgent towards the two of them. If she were harassed like this, no matter whether the other person was a man or a woman, she would definitely punch the other person to shut up.

"Do you think Emiya ran out of money to buy food, so that's why he acted like that?"

Seeing that no one had come up with a decent proposal, Angel of Energy put forward his previous guess.

"That's possible. I sometimes feel the same way at the end of the month."

Croissant immediately understood what Angel was worried about. They were the two who spent the most money among Penguin Logistics.

Texas and Sora both manage their finances very well, especially Sora since he has his main job as an idol, so he basically doesn't worry about money.

"I remember Emiya said that these expenses are all from the boss's budget... or is there something Emiya wants to buy?"

From the beginning, Kong was worried that it might not be a good idea for Emiya to spend so much money on ingredients. After asking, he found out that Emiya had already communicated with the boss.

However, Emiya would only use the money on food for everyone at Penguin Logistics and had no plans to use it for other things, so Sora was wondering if Emiya wanted to buy something.

"what."

After hearing what Kong said, Texas suddenly remembered that Emiya seemed to have said in the morning that he wanted to buy a pair of headphones.

"What did you come up with, Texas?"

Seeing Texas' reaction, Angel knew that his old partner seemed to have thought of something.

"I think Emiya said he wanted to buy some headphones this morning."

Texas had no intention of hiding it and spoke out directly. After all, it was not a big deal.

Maybe Emiya couldn't stand the noise when he was reading? Plus, the books he was reading recently were very professional, so it was natural for him to ask for headphones.

She bought the headphones because Angel and Croissant were really noisy when they were quarreling, and she also liked listening to music, so she bought them.

“Headphones… good headphones are really expensive.”

After hearing what Texas said, Sora suddenly understood.

Although I haven't had much exposure to it, I still have some understanding of the headphone market. The cheap ones are really cheap, but they are not durable, and the expensive ones are really expensive, but they also have comprehensive functions.
