Shinji looked at the information appearing on his computer screen, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his face. The development of modern technology was really convenient; it had let him find the information he needed so quickly. "My dear, adorable, best sister in the world, I've already found the information you need. Can you give your big brother a reward?"
Shinji changed from the calm, genius-like expression he had in front of others. He replaced the stern demeanor he had in front of other researchers, which he had because of his talent, like a small team leader. At this moment, this purple-haired boy was, standardly and fully, these two words: sister-complex! And the extremely humble kind at that.
Perhaps because of her past, not-so-good experiences, Matou Sakura still felt a bit of dislike for the name "Matou". Although she knew this had nothing to do with the boy in front of her, to just forgive him so easily, she always felt it was a bit unfair to her past. What's more, there was always a voice in her heart, like a little devil, telling her, isn't this kind of interaction also very interesting?
It had to be said, although Matou Sakura seemed calm on the surface, as if she didn't care about anything, there were indeed some ripples in her heart. That little voice in her heart did indeed make her feel a bit of fun. Anyway, this kind of interaction was consensual, and it didn't harm the interests of anyone. You're happy, I'm happy, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with it...
In any case, as for the way these two got along, Aslan said he didn't quite understand. But so what? This was a matter between the two of them; it wasn't good for him to interfere. After all, it seemed there was nothing wrong with it. It was just that one was a bit black-bellied, and the other had a bit of a personality difference. It was a case of one being willing to beat and the other willing to be beaten.
Matou Sakura, after seeing the results displayed on the computer, gently nodded. And Shinji seemed to have seen a lot of meaning in this nod. His whole person, happy, began to buy the latest plane tickets, to get to their destination in the fastest way. After all, although they were in Great Britain, they were still some distance from London.
The mercenaries had not yet left the London area. At this moment, if they rushed over, they should still be in time. Although, when they got there, they would have to go all out to head outside the suburbs. After all, this group of mercenaries also had private vehicles and boats. Once they drove their vehicles to the bay and drove their boats directly into the high seas, it would be a bit troublesome.
Although magi could use many powers that others didn't know about, they still had to, more or less, consider the countries they were in. If they had a bad relationship with the country in their area, then their days would be a bit difficult. Unless that country was already in a mess. At least in Great Britain, this would not be the case.
At least, unlike other worlds, the Clock Tower in this world had been established under the shadow of the two "demons" and "nightmares," Morgan and Aslan, from its very beginning. In the case of a wrong investment, at least it had not yet developed to the point where it could have the final say in Great Britain. In fact, in the early days of the Clock Tower's establishment, there were even rumors that the Pendragon family was simply their nemesis.
From this, one can see to what extent the Aslan family back then had "taken care of" these magi.
Under the circumstances where they maintained a tacit balance, those mercenaries who had received the mission were even less likely to take the initiative to break the balance. Whoever it was that broke the tacit understanding between the two would be the sinner of the entire hidden world.
An SUV was speeding through the suburbs of London. This place had not yet escaped the control range of the Clock Tower's magi. It was actually possible that a certain magus would discover their abnormality. Although these mercenaries had already changed into fashionable clothes, and even the SUV was of a slightly fashionable style, in the back of the SUV, there were also various props and materials for camping.
This appearance of going on an outing could indeed reduce the attention of others on them. After all, compared to the original Holy Grail War, this Holy Grail War was half a year late. The original winter had already come to the time of approaching summer. The weather at this time was the most comfortable. The mosquitoes had not yet become active. There were really quite a few people going on outings.
It was just that compared to the large families of other teams, the members of this outing team were a little special. They were all muscular men or women who clearly had a bit of a tomboy feel. They looked like a spring outing of some gun club or boxing club.
These mercenaries, who had been in contact with the world of magi, also knew that they couldn't disguise themselves so ordinarily and blend into the masses. More or less, they were still a bit special. To disguise themselves as a boxing club was already their limit. How could the temperament of those who had been on the battlefield be the same as that of ordinary people? In fact, in order to make the mission proceed more smoothly, their employer had even provided them with veteran certificates to cover up the many incongruities on their bodies. Clearly, this method was still somewhat effective. After all, until now, no one had come to find them, right?
It was just that these people had not noticed that on the highway to the suburbs, a camera that had originally been turned off had been turned on again, and at the same time, had directly taken a picture of their faces.
Shinji, who had just come out of the airport, immediately handed the photo to his sister beside him. It could be said that their current location and the location of this group of mercenaries were at the two extreme ends of a city. Without using some special means, he was afraid he couldn't catch up to these guys.
Matou Sakura looked at the endless stream of people around her, directly grabbed this brother of hers, and walked towards the roof of the building. Since the normal way might not be able to catch up, then she could only use an abnormal way!
Using suggestion magic, she hypnotized all the people who saw her, and successfully arrived at the roof of the airport. Then, using reinforcement magic to strengthen her own limbs, she directly jumped onto a taller building nearby. She continued until she found a location with no people. Then, Sakura Matou temporarily put her nominal brother to one side and took off a five-petaled cherry blossom pendant from her neck.
The pendant looked like a crystal, flashing with a mysterious light. She then placed this pendant on the belt at her waist. The originally exquisite and elegant belt buckle quickly began to transform, like a small box, successfully enclosing that pendant completely within it. Then, the entire belt bloomed with an even brighter light.
A pink light began to extend from the belt to the surroundings, and then firmly enveloped the girl's limbs.
