Then they saw Fufu sneakily peeking under Riko's skirt.
Shirou Emiya, annoyed, grabbed Fou Fate by the back of her neck and lifted her up.
Don't let this little guy's cuteness fool you, he's actually a pervert. He's a female cat demon, so why is he so lewd?
The instant she looked up, she definitely caught a glimpse of the beautiful view inside Riko's skirt, which made Emiya Shirou extremely jealous—or rather, condemn this behavior.
Sure enough, the fou in my hand began to struggle violently, "Fou fou fou!! Fou fou fou fou fou fou!!" (Let me go!! I almost saw it!!)
Riko stared at Fufu curiously and asked the question she had wanted to ask back on Sky Island: "What exactly is this little thing? A cat? A dog? A hybrid?"
"This is a cat demon from the time of King Arthur. Don't be fooled by her cute appearance; she's actually a lecherous old woman, just like her former owner."
Riko became even more curious. She increasingly felt that what Emiya Shirou said was probably true. Coming from another universe or something like that was too exciting!
Who was its previous owner?
“It’s Merlin.” Emiya Shirou let Fou rest on his shoulder, then said to Riko, “Merlin is a temporary worker at my family’s restaurant. If he dares to harass you again, don’t be polite, just pull out your gun and shoot him in the face.”
Riko touched her lips, asking uncertainly, "The Merlin you're talking about, could it be the real Merlin? Not some code name or something? Wait! So that guy in the coat with the pipe is really Sherlock Holmes? And that old man is really Moriarty?!"
Emiya Shirou looked at Riko strangely and said, "Yeah, my goodness, you're only just realizing that?"
Riko was both amused and exasperated: "I never imagined there would be two of the same person!"
Emiya Shirou comforted him, "It's alright. My restaurant will soon make you go from being shocked to numb. By the way, my waitress is Yu Ji."
"Yu Ji? Her? Such a fiery temper?!" Riko was furious, but then she thought about it and realized it was true. Wasn't Yu Ji a woman who dared to love and hate in historical records?
Then the problem is coming.
"That's not right. He's Yu Ji, but what about Xiang Yu? Aren't you afraid he'll cause you trouble? Maybe he'll make his woman your waitress or something."
Emiya Shirou turned around and said, "My world, my universe, well, just don't take it to heart, or you'll go crazy sooner or later."
"What do you mean?" Riko quickened her pace and walked alongside Emiya Shirou.
"In my universe, in this world, the poppy is a primordial spirit that has existed since the birth of the planet. The poppy you see now is from the Qin Dynasty and has never met Xiang Yu."
Riko felt even more dizzy, while Shirou Emiya laughed uncontrollably.
My dear girl, this is nothing. It will be even more exciting when you meet King Arthur, Nero, Okita Souji, Oda Nobunaga, Uesugi Kenshin, Mordred, and the like.
Just then, a loud bang came from Academy Island on the opposite side of Sky Island. A thick blue beam of light shot into the sky and then disappeared, piercing through the clouds and leaving a hole in the sky.
Emiya Shirou asked suspiciously, "Is your Butei High School this exciting?"
Riko quickly shook her head, saying uncertainly, "That direction seems to be the building where Toru Sayonari's research office is located."
Shirou Emiya stumbled, then dragged Vlad's "corpse" and started running wildly. "Damn it, if we don't hurry, we won't even have time to collect Aria's ashes!"
Riko was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then quickly grabbed Shirou Emiya's collar and started running wildly: "No, no, no! I have to defeat Aria!"
Inside the research office, Aria, pale-faced, plopped down on the cold tile floor, looking back at the large, circular hole in the ceiling outside the office that looked as if it had been cut out.
This is the top floor of the teaching building. Aozaki Aoko's magic cannon shot directly evaporated the obstruction to her vision. Through the round hole, she could see the clear sky and the large hole in the clouds that had been blasted open by the magic cannon.
Although it doesn't look as awe-inspiring or as large as the Great Hole of Goetia, it's still enough to make one's heart tremble.
Aria finally felt fear. If it weren't for her keen intuition that made her avoid Aozaki Aoko the moment she saw her, she probably would have been dead.
Actually, she was overthinking it.
Aoko never intended to kill her; otherwise, this beam of light wouldn't have been fired diagonally, but horizontally at Aria.
After all, although Aoko is a magician, her personality is a very rare normal human personality among magicians. Even Rin Tohsaka is probably not as normal as her.
"Who are you people? A new criminal organization? Kinji, did you betray me? How could you join such an evil organization?!"
Miss Holmes IV, who is completely incapable of reasoning, glanced at Kinji Toyama and Shirayuki Hoshiga, whom she recognized in the crowd, and blurted out her judgment without hesitation.
These words prompted Yu Meiren to throw over a dozen blood-red swords at her. "Are you blind? Do we look like an evil organization?"
After dodging Yu Meiren's blood-stained sword with her petite frame, Aria pointed at Yu Meiren and the professor, and asked suspiciously, "Aren't you two?"
The professor laughed heartily, "Hahahaha, this is the only intuition that makes him seem like Sherlock Holmes, but in other aspects he's far from being Sherlock Holmes!"
Old Fu on the moon also sighed, "If this really is my offspring, I'll have a stomachache."
Aria looked at them, completely bewildered, and said, "What are you talking about? Sherlock Holmes? My great-grandfather? Who are you people?"
The professor put away his phone and waved it at Old Sherlock on the moon: "I've taken all the photos and videos. I'll share them on Chaldea's local network when we get back so everyone can see them."
"You're hopeless. I'll stop you. Although I don't want to admit it, this can be considered my dark history." After saying this, Old Man Fu looked at Aria and sighed again.
Aria also looked at Holmes, feeling that he seemed somewhat familiar.
"Nice to meet you, Kanzaki Holmes Aria. Let me introduce myself. My name is Sherlock Holmes, and I come from a universe completely different from yours."
“You’re lying!” Aria didn’t believe him at all.
"It may be hard to believe, but it's true."
The professor seized the opportunity to add insult to injury: "And let me tell you something even more shocking: I am Moriarty, James Moriarty!"
"Huh???" Aria was dumbfounded.
Hoshiga Shirayuki thought for a moment and then spoke up, "Kanzaki-kun, you may not believe it, but what they all said is true, and your great-grandfather is still alive."
“???”, Aria was speechless, her little head filled with great confusion.
Is my great-grandfather still alive?
Just then, a white light shone, and Shirou Emiya, dragging Vlad and Riko, was teleported into the office.
"Holy crap, I only remembered I could go back to the restaurant and teleport again after running a few steps. What happened just now? You guys made too much noise, didn't you?" Shirou Emiya asked immediately, throwing down the rope in his hand.
Aozaki Aoko said apologetically, "Don't worry about it, shop manager. I just gave her a little scare~"
Aria roared angrily, "Is that what you call bluffing?! You clearly intend to kill someone! I will arrest you!"
Riko, who had been standing behind Shirou Emiya, said, "Ormes, I have always wanted to defeat you, but you are too weak. Defeating someone like you gives me no sense of victory or joy."
Therefore, I tried every means to spread false news about armed detectives operating in Tokyo, Japan, to lure you from the UK to Japan.
Then, after calculating the exact day of your arrival, I slowed down Qinqin's watch the night before last, causing him to deliberately miss the 7:58 bus, and also arranged for an armed detective assassin.
Kinji Toyama immediately complained, "Riko, you've ruined my life! You almost ruined it!"
Riko looked at Kinji Toyama with a wry smile and said, "I'm sorry, Kinji. But this is my long-cherished wish. I come from Iyu. I am a Armed Detective Assassin."
Kinji Toyama was dumbfounded. "Riko...you! My brother! You must know my brother, right!"
"Yes, your brother is also a member of Yiyou, Qinqin, but he joined in order to dismantle Yiyou. Aria's great-grandfather, Holmes, learned your family's explosive mode from Kinichi Toyama."
Riko glanced at Aria and continued, "I once made a deal with Vlad that if I could defeat Sherlock Holmes IV, he would acknowledge me as an excellent Robin IV. Therefore, I have a plan."
I planned to make history repeat itself. Every Sherlock Holmes has had his partner, just as the first Holmes' partner was Watson, and for the modern Holmes, I chose Chinchin for Aria, and Aria took the bait as expected.
But none of that matters now. Vlad has been convicted, and I no longer need to prove myself to anyone. But I still hope to fight Aria.
After all, who isn't an S-class armed detective with both swords and guns? Also, let me tell you something fun, Aria, the leader of the world's largest criminal organization that you've been trying to track down is none other than your idol, your great-grandfather—Sherlock Holmes!
Aria broke down.
Her intuition told her that what Riko said was absolutely true. Although she had not inherited the deductive reasoning skills passed down through generations of the Sherlock Holmes family, Aria's intuition and ability to act were indeed outstanding.
Aria truly never imagined that her beloved great-grandfather was still alive and had become a criminal leader, even capable of framing Aria's mother without batting an eye.
However, that's not even the most exciting part.
Xingjia Baixue stepped forward, squatted down, and looked at Aria, asking, "Is an S-rank Armed Detective that impressive?"
Aria shook her head blankly.
"Does being an S-class armed detective mean you can forcibly move into someone else's dormitory without paying a penny?"
Aria opened her mouth, but didn't say a word.
"Can S-level armed detectives forcibly recruit people as their partners?"
Aria lowered her head.
"Does being an S-class armed detective mean you can be high and mighty and treat people like slaves?"
Aria bit her lip.
"Does being an S-rank armed detective mean you can disregard the Japanese armed detective regulations and the school rules of Tokyo Armed Detective High School, and fire your weapon at will?"
“But aren’t you also—” Aria wanted to refute Snow White.
"Shut up! I haven't finished asking my question!"
Bai Xue glared at Aria and continued, "Does being an S-rank Armed Detective give you the right to be so arrogant and unreasonable?"
Aria didn't dare to speak and could only remain silent.
Emiya Shirou stepped forward and began to ask, "Kanzaki-kun, let's answer a few hypothetical questions. First, suppose your partner risked his life for you, but ended up with a terminal illness. His only option was to find his father."
But his father is a criminal to you. So the question is, will you choose to help your partner who has risked his life for you, or will you resolutely refuse and insist on arresting his father?
Aria replied, "...If that's the case, I will choose to remain neutral and not intervene."
"Okay, next question. Your partner's friend is penniless and has come to your partner for help, but your partner is also broke. So your partner has come to you hoping you can provide financial assistance. What would you do? Would you lend them money?"
Aria retorted decisively, "Why should you? Would you lend money to someone who obviously can't pay it back?"
Hearing this, Kinji Toyama covered his face in anguish. "My future self, you're so damn miserable!"
Yu Meiren couldn't resist joining in either, "Then I'll ask a few hypothetical questions too. Listen carefully, little girl, what would you do if your partner decided to become an ordinary person because they were disheartened?"
Aria thought for a moment: "Let him be? It's his freedom, isn't it? But I won't associate with him anymore; he has no ambition."
Emiya Shirou laughed out loud, "Your partner offended the British government for your sake, and the government is pressuring him to be kicked out of your team. Now, if you just plead for him, the British government will give in. What will you do?"
"Needless to say, I will not betray my country. I can only let him leave my squad."
Aozaki Aoko also joined the hunt. "Then I'll ask you one too. After your partner was fired, he chose to study hard and improve himself every day, but you encountered danger. You had two choices: first, ask someone for help, but no one is as reliable as your partner."
Secondly, you ask your partner for help, but your partner has clearly stated that they want to be a normal person. What would you do?
"Of course I'll choose my partner! Doesn't the Armed Detective Code say that Armed Detective partners are supposed to help each other? It's only natural for him to help me, isn't it?" Aria found it strange that such a question needed to be asked.
The group of people were all speechless.
What a blatant display of double standards!
Bai Xue's full breasts rose and fell rapidly with her breathing. Finally, she turned to look at everyone with a wicked smile and said, "I want to hit someone."
Emiya Shirou blinked. "Go ahead and fight. Once we've fought, we should leave. Your school's people are coming soon."
Aozaki Touko nodded: "The commotion is too great, there are too many people, and the magic I cast is about to be diluted. Let's start fighting quickly."
Snow White took a deep breath, and then decisively slapped Aria hard across the face.
"Snapped!!"
Immediately, a bright red five-finger mark appeared on Aria's delicate face.
Aria covered her left cheek with a serious expression, feeling like the world was playing a joke on her: "You dare hit me! My family has never hit me!"
"Snapped!!"
Snow White couldn't hold back any longer and slapped Aria's right cheek again.
Now Aria's face is completely symmetrical.
"At first I thought you were just an ordinary woman who stole fish, but I never expected you to be this kind of woman," Xingjia Baixue said coldly. "You probably don't know why I hit you."
In the future timeline, you forced Xiao Jin to become your partner, and all the problems mentioned above are things you did to Xiao Jin in the future!
Aria didn't even have time to cover her face; she was utterly shocked. "What are you talking about! What future! Even if it's about the future, my choice wasn't wrong!"
Shirou Emiya couldn't help but want to hit someone, and Shirayuki did it for him. Shirayuki slapped him again, saying, "It's all because of you that Gin's future has been ruined!"
"Alright, alright, stop hitting him. If you keep hitting him, he'll go crazy. The things she does to Kinji in the future could fill dozens of novels, and we can't finish talking about them all in a short time," Emiya Shirou comforted him.
"Hmm, let it go, Shirayuki. I don't mind anymore. Nothing has happened yet, has it?" Kinji Toyama still felt a little reluctant. After all, in his opinion, as long as it was stopped, that was enough. He just wanted to know about the EU.
Riko talked about many things that he had to pay attention to, especially about his older brother, Kinichi Toyama.
Holmes also said, "Manager, we can retreat now. The footsteps are getting louder. Let's go to a safe place and discuss what to do next."
Emiya Shirou nodded and said, "Shall we fight our way out now? Crossing Cartier is a one-time use item for you, so I personally suggest we don't waste it, since it has a five-day usage period."
Aozaki Aoko said nonchalantly, "Then let's fight our way out! I haven't vented enough yet; this woman is really infuriating!"
Yu Meiren chimed in, "Me too, it was all that little girl Bai Xue doing all the work, my hands were itching to do it."
