Chapter 84 "Melyuzina"

"You mean... someone put a bunch of corpses into your room?" Angé on the other end of the line asked in surprise.

"Well, I checked the wounds. They were all fatal blows caused by close combat. If they were facing the same person, then the one who did it must be a martial arts master."

Chu Tianjiao judged, "Also, this afternoon, I met that Emiya Shirou... He also came to this city, which should not be a coincidence."

Angers couldn't help but speculate, "Could it be... that this is what the Zhou family meant? I heard that the Dragon-Breaking Platform was also taken away by that young man."

Ange was not clear about the emotional twists and turns between Emiya and Wa, but he and other forces unanimously judged that:
The Dragon-Breaking Platform symbolizes the Zhou family's reputation. It also shined in the battle against Odin not long ago. It is a means to deter villains!

"He also brought the Dragon-Severing Platform with him?"

It was the first time that Chu Tianjiao heard that the Dragon-Breaking Platform was lent out to outsiders by the Zhou family. "Then what about these corpses? I thought that Emiya Shirou was guarded by a martial arts master of the Zhou family, and that he threw the corpses to us to deal with as a warning."

"You mean... the Zhou family thinks these are our people?"

Ange shook his head. Here it comes again, that familiar feeling of passing the buck.

But how can the same trick work a second time? The secret party is not a loser, so why do they have to put themselves in danger every time?

"That's impossible. The executive department has not taken any action against Emiya Shirou, and the school board cannot bypass me to command the executive department. Besides, what's the point of being hostile to the 'God Slayer' for no reason? Unless we have been confirmed to be a complete enemy... Hmm?"

Already hostile...

Ange was startled, "It's Odin's gang again!"

Chu Tianjiao only had a general understanding of the Odin incident. "What the principal meant was, is there any follow-up to the incident?"

"Yes, as I mentioned before, they also planted nails within the secret party," Angers slowed down his tone and spoke heavily.

"It just so happens that the secret party has grown so large that it has greatly increased the difficulty of the investigation. We can only conclude that the forces behind Odin have taken root too deeply. They will not be hurt by a single incident, and the next move must be on the way."

"The storm is coming." Chu Tianjiao seemed to be responding to Principal Ange's words, but in fact, he was not too nervous. Anyway, his relationship with the secret party was rather delicate and not close.

Now he just needs to focus on the transaction, wait for the transaction partner to arrive, and deliver the box in time.

"...Theoretically speaking, we can't just sit there and wait for death," Ange's voice echoed in the basement again, "but facing the reality, we can't do anything... S-level Specialist Chu Tianjiao, in the name of the principal of Kassel College, now urgently conveys the new mission content to you!"

"You have been carrying out long-term missions in the city below you for more than ten years. Today, this mission remains unchanged, but you need to temporarily deal with the new risks brought by the unknown force and, if necessary, help our temporary allies—"

"It could be Emiya Shirou, or it could be my partner. Join in and help them solve this incident! The enemy of my enemy is our friend!"

"Got it!" Chu Tianjiao was cheered up. When he saw those corpses, he guessed that this mission might not go smoothly.

Angers' tone was not relaxed. "The forces we can mobilize in Shenzhou are getting less and less. You may face a situation of lack of support and being isolated and helpless..."

"Principal, don't worry! Over the years, even if I, Old Chu, rarely go out on a mission, I have never fallen behind in my craft!"

Chu Tianjiao patted his chest and spoke humorously. Under his feet was another large suitcase. The label on this suitcase was engraved with a half-rotten world tree. It was filled with well-maintained light and heavy weapons, guns and ammunition.

There were some ammunition on the small workbench. Some of them had red or black paint on the bottom, and some were hand-engraved with crosses. Chu Tianjiao guaranteed that with this craftsmanship, every bullet would explode into a bloody flower immediately after entering the enemy's body.

----

In order to keep himself calm, Emiya decided to go back to the living room to do his traditional crafts.

Daily projection practice.

His skills have reached a level sufficient to perform the projection of Noble Phantasms, but the "projection filling" that allows a person to gain the power and skills of the original user is still at a stage of confusion.

Thinking of this, Shigeya took out a heavy ancient bronze sword from the black sword case that looked like a cello case. It was very heavy. Ever since Lord Wa said that day that the sword of Duanlongtai had devoured a large number of souls, he realized that this heaviness came from the souls of his ancestors.

The question arises again, why was he able to obtain the power similar to Dayu on the battlefield of Odin, was it just the blessing of countless souls? What conditions were met to form the projection filling effect?
Just when Emiya was puzzled, the sound of footsteps of slippers stepping on the floor came from the bathroom again, and soon it came closer and closer.

I saw Nuonuo wrapped her clean body in a pure white bathrobe, with her red hair tied up and covered with a hot towel. However, the amplitude of her steps was as big as that of a proud little heroine, and a pair of long white legs would playfully pop out from under the bathrobe from time to time.

"Hurry, hurry, look, there's a response from the Zhou family!" Nuo Nuo quickly picked up the phone that she had just thrown on the sofa and checked it. After reading the message, she ran to his front without noticing any change in Emiya's expression.

"I say, are you... wearing anything underneath?" Emiya reached out to take the phone that Nono threw to him. Nono originally wanted to sit sideways and watch it together, but Emiya held it far away to the other side and didn't let her see it, and kept nagging Nono with this sentence.

“Nothing!” I just took a shower and feel comfortable, why should I wear anything?
After saying that, Nono tried to grab the phone twice with his claws and teeth bared, but due to his lack of strength, he could not get it back. So he started to stare silently into Emiya's eyes, like a kitten staring at a cat toy all the time.

"Go back to your room and put on your inner clothes first. What if Old Tang comes back?"

Emiya knocked on Nuonuo's head. He couldn't let this girl be free from the Chen family and become unrestrained and lawless.

“Okay, okay, okay.” Nuonuo pouted, but in her heart she was mumbling that your brother Tang might not have come home all night, and you never said a word to him. Instead, you acted like an adult and controlled me. So…

As Nono left in a flash, Emiya checked the information sent by Lord Wa.

When he opened it, he saw a dazzling array of fund flow data and transaction record tracking investigations and analyses. Emiya pressed his temples and patiently found several overseas companies that were highlighted...

It may be an underground transaction transit point established through false investment, trade or donation, SPV and other means.

Normally, the clues would have been disconnected and ended here, unless someone was sent overseas to conduct an in-depth investigation. But Emiya was not looking for evidence, he just needed to find a suspected target in this city.

Don't mention it, there really is one. The Zhou family mobilized their connections to search for major business districts in the city, especially economic entities with foreign capital. They locked on the target - a "Kuroshio Aquarium" located in the CBD area and invested by a Japanese company.

According to the investigation, this Japanese company is a comprehensive fishery company established by a Japanese underworld gang called "Aoi-ya". Its business scope includes fishing at sea, selling aquatic products, etc., and of course, it also invests in aquariums.

Coincidentally, the Chen family also had a similar biological research institute that cooperated with the fishery company. The aristocratic families determined that at least part of the "Deadpool transfer" was through customized fish transport tanks, under the guise of transferring large fish such as whale sharks across borders. Even more coincidental is that the largest overseas trading partners of the Chen family's companies at the time, in addition to South America, were many underworld gangs in Japan...

Regarding this suspect, Lord Wa asked on the phone whether the Zhou family needed to send some people for support. Shirou thought of the "Dandelion" typhoon that was about to hit, and finally chose to reply and refuse. By the time the Zhou family rushed over, it would be too late.

He decided to take the initiative and investigate tomorrow to find out what the other party's background was.

"I also need to go!"

Nono, who had just changed into beige pajamas with a duck pattern, suddenly came over to peek at the screen, then waved her hand and shouted.

"I can fight! I'm definitely stronger after this training today!"

"...?"

How long have you been practicing? How can it be so fast? Do you really think you are the Holy Grail? You can make your wishes come true...

"You are not allowed to..."

Emiya originally planned to refuse outright, but thinking carefully about the previous experience, both of them might be found by those hidden people. Nono had a strange mark on her body, and it seemed unsafe to leave her alone.

"Forget it, let's go together--"

Emiya watched Nono's originally aggrieved expression with a sullen face, but he burst into laughter in just one second - his acting skills of pretending to cry and act pitiful are so perfect, it can be called a unique skill!
Good boy, he is indeed the strongest naughty kid in the Chen family...

After looking at Nono's slightly excited face and thinking about it, Emiya felt that this would not work and was not very safe.

Emiya decided to take out his phone and contact another person - not Old Tang. Emiya felt that if Old Tang went, it would probably turn into a "one-day trip to get lost in the aquarium" -

It would be best if that person is also in this city. Being able to bring that person into the team can greatly increase the smoothness of the deep dive into the aquarium.

"Who?"

Nono, who was next to Shirou, saw this and came over to ask.

"You want to know?" Emiya said while typing without even raising his head.

"Yes I do."

"I won't tell you, haha."

"..."

When Nono heard Emiya's "Haha" without any intonation, she felt that it sounded a bit weird for some reason, which made her angry and feel suffocated.

----

"Haha, we meet again! Young Master Emiya, Lady Nono!"

The next day, Jiude Mai tied her hair into a high ponytail, wore a pair of dark glasses, slung a large leather bag over her shoulder, and waved one hand high in the air.

Her supermodel-like long legs attracted the attention of everyone queuing in front of the aquarium entrance, just like a spider spirit that caught people's attention as prey in its web.

Fortunately, probably because of the approaching typhoon, the crowd queuing at the door is sparse. A rainstorm stopped briefly last night, but the weather is still gloomy. People who are worried about the next rainstorm but are still brave enough to go out have prepared umbrellas and rain gear.

Emiya was carrying a huge long violin case on his back, and Nono was following closely beside him with an umbrella. When the two disguised people came in front of Jude Mai, Emiya was about to take out a Mint Club membership card - given to him by old man Snowden from the clock tower.

This magical card comes from Mint, an international top private club and wealth club. It claims to be able to meet all the needs of its members. It can not only customize a large-scale fireworks show at night, but also help complete the private dining service of a top restaurant, and even buy a building for a wedding... provided that the money can be paid.

Emiya took this out simply because he didn't have time to buy tickets for the aquarium last night. This aquarium actually has a daily ticket quota and restrictions on visits.

...It seems like they don't really care about making money from the guests, which is very suspicious.

When Emiya stepped forward, he saw Jude Mai stretching out her arm to stop him, and then a Mint membership card of a similar shape appeared in her hand.

"you also?"

Jiude Mai nodded. "Among us (the three people), I am the one who appears the most. This thing is basically in my hands. Let's go. I have already made an appointment. We will go to the VIP channel. We don't need to wait in the long line over there."

So the three of them disguised themselves as ordinary tourists and entered the "Kuroshio Aquarium".

What catches your eye is a huge sea view display window that is more than half a meter thick, eight meters high and 22 meters wide. A huge creature - a whale shark is swimming slowly in it. Behind the whale shark, fish shadows are floating, blocking the light and casting huge blocks of darkness. With the light of light blue, it is as vast and endless as a mountain range.

This is the iconic "Kuroshio Exhibition Hall" of the Kuroshio Aquarium. Emiya and the other two heard the tour guide say that "Kuroshio" refers to the name given by the Japanese to the North Pacific Warm Current. This second largest warm current in the world has a deep blue, almost pitch black, water color, hence its name.

The Kuroshio Current also brings a huge number of marine fish resources to the island country, so the Japanese people who respect the sea love and believe in the "Kuroshio Current".

The aquarium was crowded with people. Emiya and the other two continued to walk through. The flow of people in front of them gradually gathered and became larger and larger.

It was a mysterious underwater tunnel layer of deep blue. Visitors exclaimed as they watched a beautiful girl with long wings and a snake tail swimming freely and gracefully in the sea water separated by the tunnel.

The entrance to the tunnel is marked "Melyuzina's Water World".

With Emiya's keen eyesight, he could tell at once that these were played by the staff, but to be honest, these divers do have good looks and figures...

Nono beside him suddenly patted Emiya's hand with an unhappy look on his face.
