Chapter 219 Everyone is happy
When Toshisaka Tokitoki came out of the almost half-collapsed Matou house holding the unconscious Matou Sakura, he saw Yosano Akiko holding the doll tightly and Lancelot carrying Nakahara Chuuya on his back.
And Edogawa Ranpo who was jumping up and down in dissatisfaction.
"Let Ranpo-sama hold me, Yosano. You've been holding me for a long time, I want one too..."
Yosano Akiko refused him righteously, "Ranpo-sama, I'm taking care of the doll's hair and the wrinkles on its skirt. You usually don't pay much attention to these details, so let me do it."
After saying that, she continued to carefully rub the doll's long hair with her fingertips, revealing an expression of enjoyment.
Edogawa Ranpo, who was standing next to her, was sulking and didn't want to talk to her at all, but he felt envious when he saw her actions, so he had to stare at her and refused to look away.
"Is this the work of Galan no Tokido?" Tohsaka Tokito noticed the doll and said in realization, "What a well-made suppressor, worthy of the work of a top-ranked doll artist."
Edogawa Ranpo turned his head sharply and asked, "Do you know where I can have this doll customized?"
Edogawa Ranpo's burning gaze made Tōsaka Tokitoki's forehead sweat. He answered cautiously:
"The Grand Puppeteer Aozaki Touko's Garan-no-do can make puppets of all shapes and sizes, but the cost is extremely high."
"Money is not a problem," Ranpo said excitedly. "As long as it looks good, I can afford it no matter how expensive it is."
Yosano Akiko was equally excited. "Me too, Master Tohsaka, can you please contact the puppeteer?"
Now they are calling you...
Tohsaka Tokitoki was actually a little amused and helpless. He said helplessly, "If you two need it, I will have my disciples take you to the Garan Hall later. The Tohsaka family is also willing to bear the cost of the doll's craftsmanship."
"Thank you both for saving Aoi and me, and thank you to this gentleman for blocking Zouken Matou for us, giving me the opportunity to rescue Sakura."
Edogawa Ranpo nodded happily. He didn't need anyone to pay him. For a smart person, money can be obtained from anywhere. However, it would be better to have someone help him save trouble.
He also found Tousaka Tokito more pleasing to his eyes, and casually said, "If you haven't submitted that application to the Magic Association yet, I suggest you don't."
"Matou Zouken ran away, but he's definitely going to Tokyo. After all, he's the mastermind behind the Holy Grail War."
"Find an opportunity to kill Matou Zouken, let Matou Kariya inherit the position of family head, and then adopt Sakura. This method may be more secure."
Toosaka Tokitoki was stunned. After what happened, he really didn't want to leave his daughter in the Matou family anymore. This was also a terrible nightmare for his daughter.
Edogawa Ranpo saw through his worries and said bluntly, "Are you stupid? Matou Kariya next to you doesn't really want to go back to the Matou family either. Besides, he's a novice himself and isn't very good at the Matou family's own magic."
"You're just saying that for the sake of reputation. You could have just said that, let the little girl get the magic seal, and then go back to the Tōsaka family."
"Don't feel embarrassed. Be flexible. The people of the Matou family are more willing than you are."
Matou Kariya beside him nodded repeatedly, "I don't want to inherit the Matou family, nor do I want to become a magician, and I don't want Sakura to stay here any longer."
"If I can really kill Zouken, I will send all the books and other collections of the Matou family to the Tōsaka family, then leave the island country and never come back."
He never wanted to be a magician in the first place, and he came back to participate in the Holy Grail War just to save Sakura.
"Don't refuse, Shichen. Consider it my atonement for killing you and Sister Aoi." Matou Kariya murmured, "I still can't forgive you. Your stupidity has brought irreparable harm to Sakura."
"But if it weren't for my escape and my cowardice, nothing would have come to this point."
"Take good care of Sakura and Rin, and also take good care of Sister Aoi." Matou Kariya turned to look at Edogawa Ranpo and said earnestly, "I am truly grateful for your help along the way. I will transfer Lancelot now..."
"There's no need for that now. Let's go to Tokyo first." Edogawa Ranpo shook his head and looked at Matou Kariya. "As for you, Yosano may not be able to be cured. After all, no one can predict the problem of magic circuits."
"Let's go to Tokyo. Since Ayatsuji said you and that little girl are going together, it proves that he must have already agreed with both of you."
"Your physical problems can also be solved by going back in time."
"As for Lancelot." Edogawa Ranpo looked at the knight beside him. For some reason, this guy kept staring at the doll in Yosano Akiko's arms, which made Ranpo feel something was wrong.
Besides, this guy's reputation is really complicated...
The fact that Matou Kariya was able to summon him shows that they have a high compatibility.
"Let's go to Tokyo together. Master Tōsaka should be able to transfer the Command Seals to me so that I can participate in the Holy Grail War."
Tosaka Tokito nodded, "You can make a Book of False Ministers. It's not difficult."
"Where are the Command Seals? Can you get a few more?"
"It's a bit difficult now." Shi Chen said awkwardly, "I used to have a good relationship with Father Kotomine of the Holy Church, but hasn't that person arrived now?"
In the past, the church may have been a bit dirty, because no one knew better than the priests that there was no God in this world!
If there were a God, His punishment would have come long ago. Don’t I know what bad people are like?
I'm like this!
But now the situation is different, God has really come.
God really exists!
You are taking a gamble that God doesn't care and that God forgives you.
Or do you want to take a gamble and decide that God doesn't care and will kill you?
Therefore, during this period, both the churches in the secular world and the holy churches in the mysterious world were more honest than the other.
Even many people from the mystical world have begun to travel to the island country to admire the glory of God.
In other words, to remove the shame of God.
Yes, how can you, a Holy Grail, summon our omniscient and omnipotent Lord?
Do you deserve it?
You do not deserve!
How can a small island nation like you deserve the arrival of our omniscient and omnipotent Lord?
Even the Vatican doesn’t have this blessing!
What do you mean? Do you think our priests in the Vatican are not pious? Is our Pope in the Vatican not pious?
Is your island country stronger than our Vatican?
Do you deserve it?
You do not deserve!
You probably want to know how many divisions I, the Pope, have!
Since the night of God's coming, the Knights of the Templar Church, the Eighth Mystery Society, and the Burial Agency have been rushing directly to the island nation, intending to bury the entire island nation directly after the Holy Grail War is over.
If the Lord came to the island nation because of its piety, then many people would definitely feel uncomfortable.
You are pious, am I not pious? Is the Pope not pious? Is the Pope not pious? Is the Vatican not pious?
Aren't you saying that there are bad people among us?
But...
If we put it another way, and say that the island nation has committed serious sins and angered the Lord, which is why the Lord has come here in anger, wouldn’t that be much more convincing?
Why did the Lord come to the island nation? Because they were sinful!
Why doesn’t the Lord come to the Vatican? Because the Lord knows everyone’s piety and there is no need for the Lord to worry about it.
In this way, there is piety and a future.
As long as the Holy Grail War is over and the Lord leaves, the entire island nation will be destroyed in the name of religious inquisition.
Everyone is innocent, isn't this a happy ending?
