I, the sword in the stone, want to take the knight king

Missing is also a part of life

Miyama Town, Zen City House.

Accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, the door of the house was opened from the inside.

A familiar face also appeared in Sakura’s vision.

Just, unfortunately.

The owner of this face is not Aoi Tohsaka who Sakura wants to be simple.

It was Tohsaka Aoi’s mother, the woman who should be called grandmother by Sakura.

“You are?”

The old lady, who was already aged, looked at the little girl standing at the door with a puzzled look.

Her eyes were a bit inconvenient, and she couldn’t see Sakura’s true face clearly.

Plus, the current Sakura. He also habitually hides his true face in the black hood.

Therefore, in the eyes of this old lady.

Sakura standing at the door is actually a small black shadow.

At the same time, looking at this old lady who has a direct blood relationship with her, Xiao Ying showed a very complicated expression on her face.

to be honest.

Before this “537”, the relationship between Sakura and this grandfather was actually not very good.

Even Tohsaka and Zen City are in this deep mountain town.

But because there are too many housework to take care of, Aoi Tohsaka, who married into Tohsaka’s family, doesn’t have many chances to return to her mother’s house.

Before that, Sakura was a very introverted child who didn’t like to be in contact with other people.

This special condition and personality made Sakura lose the opportunity to get more care from her elders.

So, in her heart. The impression of this grandmother is actually not very deep.

It’s probably on the level of “knowing that there is such a person”.

But, it’s interesting.

Even though Sakura is not very familiar with this grandmother.

But when she really saw this old lady, she still couldn’t help but feel a feeling of “wanting to get close to her”.

This feeling comes from the blood, but also from the inheritance of character.

From this grandmother, to Tohsaka Aoi, to Sakura herself.

They all have a very obvious [Yamato Nadeshiko] temperament.

Sakura is the Tohsaka Aoi when she was young, and Tohsaka Aoi is the one who grew upAfter Sakura.

If it weren’t for the accident of “magic”, there is actually no big problem with this sentence.

In contrast, Rin Tohsaka with twin ponytails is simply a wild girl who came out of nowhere.

It doesn’t look like Tohsaka Aoi’s species at all.

Instead, it is the current Sakura.

When she took off her hat and walked in front of the old lady:

“cherry?”

The title that came out of her mouth shocked Sakura for a moment.

“Are you back, Sakura?”

This is actually a very wonderful thing:

In fact, this dim-eyed old lady. After Sakura took off the coat she was wearing, she couldn’t see her true face clearly.

However, it is also for this reason. On the contrary, she could understand the identity of this little girl more clearly.

Because this little girl is so similar to her daughter.

It was like a miniature version of Tohsaka Aoi standing in front of her.

However, considering the current height of Aoi Tohsaka… an obvious problem, the product is not the right version.

However, if one considers that Tohsaka Aoi also has a very well-behaved little daughter who was sent out of the house by her own hands.

“You came to see your mother.”

“She’s helping to sweep the snow outside—you come in first and sit down, she should be back in a while.”

The elderly lady welcomed Xiao Ying into the house very enthusiastically.

This is a spacious and bright room.

There are not many decorations in the house, and there are many things that were newly purchased in the past few days.

And in a small box under the coffee table in the living room, Sakura also found some poor quality red gems.

Needless to say, this must be something left by her sister.

“Here, you eat some fruit.”

The old lady, who was very happy in her heart, placed a large plate of food in front of Sakura.

Looking at the various snacks and candies on the plate, Sakura has reason to suspect that when her sister Dinah grows old, she might become what she is now.

“That’s too much.”

She whispered to Shaar in her heart.

But the right hand grabbed a handful of the fruit plate very honestly.

A few pink cherries rolled into her palm—not many, but enough to make the old lady sitting next to her smile.

Old people always like to let children eat more.

And at the same time, on the other hand.

What happened next made Sakura feel another characteristic of the “old man”:

【Like nagging】.

“Sakura, how are you doing at Matou’s house?”

“Well, let me say that when your mother made a decision, she really didn’t think too much about it.”

“Adoption is adopted, why do you have to adopt Matou’s house?”

“Doesn’t our Chancheng family have magic resources?”

“As for those in Matou’s family… well, have you seen Kariya?”

“That’s a good boy—except I haven’t seen him in a long time, too.”

The old lady expressed her dissatisfaction with the Matou family very cryptically.

After all, the Chancheng family is also a magic family in Fuyuki City.

Although I seldom walk around with other companies, I still understand the basic situation.  …

——After all, the circle of magicians is only that big.

It is impossible to hide from others what happened to someone’s family.

…

It was a conversation that lasted more than two hours.

From 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm, Xiao Ying sat in the living room of Chancheng’s house, listening to the old lady chatting about some past events.

During this period, her mouth never stopped at all.

And at the very end.

Maybe it’s really hard to eat.

Or maybe it was because she suddenly realized that she had more important things to do next.

So, she took the initiative to bid farewell to the old lady.

“Aren’t you waiting for your mother to come back?”

Regarding this, the old lady looked at the well-behaved and sensible girl in front of her with a very shocked expression.

——She couldn’t wait for Sakura to stay overnight.

But, sorry.

“No.”

“My family is still waiting for me to go back for dinner.”

“After eating, there is still magic to practice… Time is very tight.”

Sakura, who didn’t want to make the parting atmosphere too much, told a white lie.

In this regard, the old lady who does not know the truth can also assume that what she said is true.

“Then come and play again if you have a chance.”

She felt a little regretful, but waved her hand happily to Sakura.

She sincerely wishes this child a bright future.

But, at this moment, she doesn’t know yet.

After half an hour.

When Aoi Tohsaka, who had finished clearing the snow, came home and saw the fruit plate on the coffee table.

“Are there any guests at home?”

she asked curiously.

“yes.”

Looking at her daughter, the corners of the old lady’s mouth rose slightly.

“It’s Sakura who came to look for you.”

“She also said that she will come here often in the future.”

“She’s so good now, it’s a pity you couldn’t see her.”

she said happily.

I hope that Aoi Tohsaka can also feel the joy of reuniting with her daughter.

However, what the old lady never expected was that.

After hearing the name “Sakura”. There was no expression of “excitement” or “joy” on Aoi Tohsaka’s face at all.

Instead, it was unprecedented panic and panic.

This is a fact she concealed and never told her mother:

Her daughter was adopted by the Matou family that night. He died in a big explosion caused by a natural gas pipeline that was in disrepair for a long time.

The situation at the scene is very tragic.

Her daughter… has no bones left! .
