In the middle of the night, the misty mist seems to diffuse from the abyss, and the lights on the roadside are faintly visible in the mist.The young man stumbled and ran on the long street with messy steps, turning his head in panic from time to time, revealing a pale face covered with sweat.

It was the midsummer season, but there was no sound of insects on the four walls, and the bustling big city was so quiet that it seemed that he was the only one left.

He passed by the door of a convenience store while running and hiding. His physical strength could no longer support him, and his body stayed in place heavily, panting violently while holding on to the glass door.

The incandescent lights of the convenience store shine through the door, but the inside is empty, and there is no one in front of the cashier.

The young man supported the door with one hand, looking back nervously while panting.There seemed to be a flash of light in his vision, and he immediately jumped up like a frightened rabbit. He turned his head and looked over, only to find that the traffic light at the intersection just jumped from the red light to the green light, and there was no vehicle passing underneath.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and leaned against the door next to him as if he lost his strength.

At this moment, he heard footsteps behind him.

Slowly, with a hint of carelessness, like a hunter who has driven his prey to the end.

His body suddenly became stiff, his pupils constricted, and his body trembled violently.He turned his head slowly, and saw a slender figure coming out of the darkness around the corner unhurriedly, and the lights of the convenience store illuminated that face that was exactly like him.

"It's almost time."

Shuten-douji spoke slowly, with the flickering candles beside him, illuminating the haze in the room, "The Sakuragawa family did a great job, and they actually awakened the goddess of Weeping Ze. The pillar tower and the only surviving master They have all attracted their attention, and our plan can officially start. Tomorrow, tomorrow is the day of our supreme glory."

"Dazai-kun." His gaze swept down, and the black-haired boy was sitting at the bottom of the first seat, doing origami boredly, and the pages full of words were torn from which book he didn't know.After hearing his name, he raised his head, his sleepy expression suddenly brightened, and he looked over with bottomless dark eyes.

"What, what? Can I go to Yokohama?" He asked enthusiastically, "Expectation" was written on the left side of Junxiu's face, and "Troublemaking" was written on the right side.

"..."

Even Shuten-doji, who was afraid of chaos, was silent for a while, and couldn't help but wonder if the situation would get out of control if he let this troublemaker out.

So his eyes passed by Dazai as if nothing had happened, ignoring his sad expression, he calmly looked at the other person present, "Hakuzo, you go."

The blond boy wearing a fox mask was woken up in the middle of a nap, and looked up in a daze, "Huh? Oh..."

"Eh……"

A troublemaker who was passing by suddenly refused to follow, and said in a dissatisfied voice, "Obviously Shibusawa-kun was invited by me, why didn't I go to receive it, but asked the canine opposite?"

"Canine" Bai Zangzhu: "..."

If you say this, I won't be sleepy.

He regained his energy immediately, straightened his shoulders, and looked straight at the black mud spirit opposite, "Isn't it because you are too unreliable, Mr. Dazai? Assassin almost never came back."

"Hey, shouldn't it be Genichi-kun, why don't you first explain what happened to that saber that suddenly appeared?" Dazai Osamu suddenly smiled, and his eyes drifted to the corner of the room pointedly, behind Shuten-douji A figure in a black cloak said, "If you add him, there will be eight servants in this Holy Grail War. I remember that you intervened in the summoning back then, right? Do you have anything to say about this, Mr. Yuanyi?"

His eyes were dark, and there was a hint of questioning in his tone, but Bai Zangzhu, who was being questioned, looked calm, "How do I know what's going on? I'm not responsible for the summoning of Saber, after all, the Holy Grail came out again." What's wrong, it's not the first time anyway."

The two looked at each other halfway across the room, and the atmosphere in the air suddenly became menacing.

Shuten-douji interrupted the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two at the right time, "There is no problem with this point."

Bai Zangzhu and Dazai Osamu looked back at him at the same time, gave him face, and put on expressions of willingness to hear more about it.

"Let me explain this to the old man," said the cloaked man sitting in the shadow, "that saber who suddenly appeared in Lake Biwa should be the one who shared the spiritual base with the previous Genji servants, or he himself was the Genji's servant's treasure. According to Assassin's description, the two have a certain understanding, and Genji's servant has never used a treasure before, so this situation is the most likely."

"Oh~" Osamu Dazai nodded lazily, and sighed in a plausible way, "A follower is such a magical creature."

"Since there is no doubt," Shuten-douji stood up and announced, "Hakuzo-sama, you and caster will leave for Yokohama tonight. Dazai-kun and I will also arrive tomorrow, and I will personally handle the prelude to this final stand." pull away."

The next day, at eight o'clock in the morning.

When Hattori Heiji leaned on the wall and moved out of the room, he felt his world spinning, and the corridor in front of him seemed to be bent into a mosquito coil.

After Sawada Ya found out the reminder left by Dazai yesterday, he immediately contacted the headquarters, and a group of people worked overtime again overnight, and did not rest until four o'clock in the morning.When he was woken up by the shikigami of Tsuchimikado's family to have breakfast, he was in a daze, as if he had closed his eyes only a minute ago.

The weather in the courtyard was fine, and the bright sunlight slanted in from under the eaves, illuminating half of the corridor.

Hattori followed Shikigami numbly, turned two turns, and finally saw Sawada Ya and Minamoto Raimitsu sitting on the porch.

The silver-haired little loli wore a light-yellow furisode today, like a sprout in the spring. The black-haired servant opposite her casually put on a dark bathrobe and leaned on the porch pillar, her long black hair was tied casually. behind the shoulders.I don't know if it's because of sitting in the sun, but he looks a bit lazy, with eyes half downcast, holding a glass of wine between his slender fingers.

There is also a table between the two, and the aroma of hot grilled fish is carried by the wind.

Hattori Heiji finally cheered up, walked over to sit down, and said good morning to the two.

"What is my sister looking at?"

"There."

Little Loli pointed in the direction of the yard while biting a piece of fish.

Hattori Heiji looked in the direction of her fingertips.

The courtyard of Tuyumen’s family is not like the courtyards of ordinary aristocratic families. They have been carefully arranged and even have a set boundary for where a grass grows. Most of them are not precious flowers, but all kinds of wild flowers and weeds, which are very distinctive at first glance.

The garden is full of lush flowers and plants, exuding vigorous vitality. After looking at it for a long time, I actually think that this arrangement is quite good.It's just that the growth of the plants is too complicated, Hattori Heiji poked open the sweetfish in front of him, and while trying to identify it for a while, he finally found what little Lolita pointed out to her.

It was a small purple flower with five petals, huddled under the plantains charmingly and timidly showing its head under the wide banana leaves.

"That's... bellflower?" Hattori was stunned, "There are many in Kansai, but in Kanto. When I was young, I always thought that there were no bellflowers in Kanto."

Sawada blinked.

Seeing her doubts, Hattori picked out a piece of grilled fish and waited for it to cool down, while explaining casually, "I was brought by my father to visit a wealthy family here when I was young..."

Although it is not very obvious, in fact, Hattori Heiji boy is also from a family, and he was often taken around by his parents when he was young.The aristocratic family's in-law relationship network is complicated, and if it is really counted, it can probably spread all over the country.

"...At that time, the adults were talking, and I would go to other people's yards to play when I was bored in the house. After visiting several houses, I found that there seemed to be no bellflower flowers in those people's yards. I thought there were no Kikyo in Kanto.”

"But then I came to Kanto more times, and I found that there were some in the yards of some families, but not near those specific families. I was very curious when I was young, and I seriously studied and wondered whether it was because of some of the platycodon flowers. What secrets will the characteristics reveal..."

Detective Kansai stopped his chopsticks and said with a deep expression, "For example, a corpse was buried under the yard."

Sawada Ya: "???"

...As expected of you.

The little loli poked the chopstick fish again, and asked curiously, "Then, have you found the reason for Heiji?"

"Ah, found it."

Hattori Heiji plucked his hair, and said in a sullen tone, "It is true that those households did not grow bellflowers on purpose, but it has nothing to do with the murder or anything, because they are supporters of Mr. Heishomon, and they think they are the descendants of Heishomon."

Ze Tianya was at a loss, "What does this have to do with Master Jiangmen?"

"Hmm... because the legend doesn't say that Master Jiangmen is indestructible, so he couldn't be killed. He only has one weak point on the temple, and it was Kikyo, the side room of Lord Jiangmen, who told his cousin about the gate of life." Your Excellency Fujita was the one who led to the downfall of Lord Shomon, so those patriarchs who thought they were after Lord Shomon hated Kikyo."

Hattori picked up a piece of fish, remembering the scene where he told his father about the conjecture that "there is a corpse in the yard" but got a merciless ridicule. If you don’t use the pattern of bellflower flowers, you won’t grow nandina in the yard except bellflower, and you will never visit Naritasan Shinshoji Temple.”

Because when Mr. Omotota killed Herashomon, he prayed to Hachiman Bodhisattva at the Shinsho Temple in Narita Mountain before going out for the expedition, and the magic arrow he later shot at Herashomon Mingmen was made of nandina.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, someone still remembers Master Jiangmen." Minamoto Raimiko sighed softly.

...In fact, more people remember you.

Hattori Heiji glanced at him silently, he dared to say that if this ancestor revealed his identity, the threshold of Tsuchimikado's family would be leveled down by the swarming people.

There are speculations about the identity of this person, there are all kinds of rumors at the headquarters, all the celebrities of Genji have been pulled out, and even Minamoto Yoshitsune has been guessed, but no one has guessed Minamoto Raimitsu.

Probably not too dare, after all, if someone summons a servant who is an Onmyoji, no one dares to open his mouth and guess that he is Abe Seimei, right?

"Speaking of which, has your Excellency Archer been in touch recently?" Hattori Heiji remembered the autograph left in the room, gave himself a thumbs up, and then changed the subject.

"You contacted me last night. He is still chasing Lord Zhensheng, and he seems to have gone to Yokohama."

"Yokohama?"

As soon as he said this, Hattori Heiji's phone rang.During this period of time, the black-skinned boy who was working overtime until he was about to die suddenly when he heard the specific ringtone of this headquarters subconsciously shook his body, and all the fish on the chopsticks fell back into the plate.

Under Ze Tianya's curious gaze, he put down his chopsticks with a wooden face, took a deep breath to prepare himself, and then held his breath and connected the phone.

"Moses Moses..."

"The Hattori."

Before he could say hello and procrastinate for a while, Conan's serious voice came from the receiver, succinctly saying, "An accident happened in Yokohama."
