The Collection of The End

My name is Lin Hao.

I was captured by Kiritsugu...

285:16:32

Emiya Kiritsugu has the three materials that Hisau Maiya collected for him.

First, about a girl from country C named "Lin Hao". She came from a family of magicians there, or a family of cultivators in local terms. She lost all sensation below the neck. After long-term treatment, her arms regained her ability to move and she was able to use magic, but the family had given up on her training. Three years ago, she came to a famous medical school in Japan for further treatment. Records show that she is still receiving treatment and has not left.

The second is a girl named Lin Hao who is hospitalized in Fuyuki General Hospital and has exactly the same appearance. She was admitted to the hospital a year ago. The symptom is paralysis from the waist down. She is accompanied by a maid who takes care of her daily life. Three days ago, she monitored the place. The familiar took photos of her drawing the magic circle on the rooftop alone in a wheelchair, the photo of the magic circle glowing, and the photo of the maid who was not on the rooftop pushing her wheelchair to leave the rooftop. This material also included a similarity comparison between the photo of the maid's back and the vague image of the woman who invaded the Einzbern Annex before.

The third is the medical records of Fuyuki General Hospital for the past year. Judging from these records, Lin Hao's paralysis has not improved, but he has been suffering from serious and minor illnesses. At first glance, there is nothing special, but if you compare it vertically, you will find a shocking fact: Every time she "sick", a patient with the same symptoms will be cured and discharged from the hospital, and some of them are even impossible to cure with Fuyuki's medical conditions. Follow-up investigations show that these recovered patients are still alive after discharge. They are all very healthy, and some diseases that are easy to relapse have not relapsed.

"I tried to let the familiars fly in to find the target, but they lost control as soon as they entered the hospital area, behaved like wild bats, and returned to normal after they left the hospital area with luck." Seeing Kiritsugu watching The hospital building seemed thoughtful, so he took a step closer to explain.

"Let's go." Emiya Kiritsugu didn't respond to this. After putting away the documents, he went straight to the gate of the hospital. Although it was irrational to step into a Caster's position, the short-haired woman who never doubted him immediately followed up .

The entire hospital is full of self-operating and condition-triggered magic formulas, which are not only completely invisible from the outside, but even inside, if they are not pre-determined that they must exist and carry out targeted inspections, they will be missed. There is no doubt that this hospital has It was transformed into an excellent magic workshop by Caster with the [Position Creation] class ability.

But this studio doesn't have the slightest attack-type spells, so Kiritsugu's originally set up defensive spells are useless. The only thing that can barely be called is that after someone asked about the situation in ward 401, he made this person forget After answering and dispelling the willingness to ask again, Kiritsugu directly determined the location of Lin Hao's ward after discovering the magic trap of three hundred taels of silver in this place.

"What's the matter?" Hearing Maiya's doubtful voice, Emiya Kiritsugu realized that he was standing in front of the elevator in a daze without pressing the button to call the elevator.

"I'm hesitating." The Magician Killer admitted that he had made a mistake in his previous judgment on the Master: "The decision made when I heard you report that 'the Master of Caster' was discovered may no longer be enforceable."

When Caster puts his Master in the magic workshop that he thinks is safe, he breaks in and steals his Master's command spell or directly knocks him out.

That was the case, but at the moment things are out of control.

The wish that Emiya Kiritsugu intends to make to the Holy Grail is to "save the world". He is a gentle person, but because he is too gentle, he becomes unable to forgive the cruelty of this world. Judging which side is more worthy of saving, without knowing any way to achieve this wish,

We can only hope for the Holy Grail that can produce miracles.

But now, someone has shown another way as if laughing at him loudly—carrying all the sorrow, misfortune, pain, despair, and remorse in the world that need to be saved, to truly save the world, and only one person sacrificed. To achieve this kind of burden, the power of miracles is needed.

"If your desires are the same, how about forming an alliance with her?" Although Hisau Maiya understands Kiritsugu's wishes and is willing to support him, she is not as fanatical as he is. All her actions are only to achieve Kiritsugu himself. At this time, the will has been calmly analyzed.

"I need to talk to her." Maybe the girl didn't know the ultimate meaning of her behavior, and just wanted to help others, but because magic is not convenient to show in front of the world, she simply borrowed Caster's power to transfer other people's pain Give it to yourself, and then secretly heal it.

In ward 401, Emiya Kiritsugu, who walked into the room quietly, checked the room carefully to make sure there was no magic trap, and then walked towards the bed, while Maiya was on guard at the door.

The girl named Lin Hao was sleeping on the hospital bed. Although the medical record stated that she was 22 years old, the wide hospital room made her look more like 15 or 6 years old.

Compared with the photos, her originally rosy face has become pale, and her round face with baby fat has also lost a pointed chin. Her thin eyebrows seem to be drooping due to discomfort, and her short, disheveled hair is a little bit loose. Appears withered and yellow.

"Hmm..." The girl's sleep was very light, and she was awakened just as Kiritsugu walked to the bed, she opened her eyes and looked at the tall man in black in front of her, there was still a blur in the pitch-black eyes that did not reflect light at all. with doubts.

Brush, Kiritsugu took out his gun and pressed it against her eyebrows.

The girl's pupils dilated slightly, her gaze swept over Kiritsugu and Maiya, and then she closed her eyes again with an expression of knowing this and being helpless.

"You can summon Caster to save you, Miss Lin Hao." Kiritsugu pointed to the back of her right hand with the bright red mark, although the strange pattern of the four rings nested in each other was exactly the same as the biochemical warning sign, but the magic power fluctuated There is no doubt that it is a command spell.

"No." The girl's voice was low, hoarse and determined due to illness.

Hum——

"Many preset magic formulas have been activated." Although Maiya's magic attainments are not high, it is still possible to judge that this kind of magic formula can produce effects in an upright manner: "But the fluctuations in magic power come from other wards."

Although Maiya couldn't judge the effect, Kiritsugu was different. This kind of transfer magic...does he think he wants to kill her, so why not just cure other people's diseases first?

"Do you want to die?!" As a magician killer, it is easy to interrupt this kind of straight-forward preset magic with a wave of his hand, but Emiya Kiritsugu still feels palpitations at the number of spells that are triggered in an instant, which is simply to destroy the whole world. The huge scale of transfer of symptoms from all patients in the hospital and even around the hospital.

Caster would be willing to help her Master make such useless workshops and spells?

Lin Hao opened one eye, glanced at the muzzle of the gun still pointed at his forehead, and closed it again.

Is this the meaning of "Obviously you are going to kill me" and "I don't want to talk to you"?

Kiritsugu laughed before he had time to get angry: "Maiya, go and drive the car over." "Yes."

Under the horrified eyes of the girl in hospital gown, the tall man in black wrapped her in a sheet and hugged his female companion in black after she left, then walked straight outside.

Lin Hao, who could only move his arm, hit him with a weak fist.

"Either you call Caster back, or I take you away." Emiya Kiritsugu said non-stop.

The girl froze for a moment, then turned to grab his hair, this time her hands were bound,

Afterwards, she kept struggling, and even used some small magic tricks, but they were all resolved one by one by the experienced Kiritsugu.

In the end, she collapsed due to anemia and dizziness, and was stuffed into the car driven by Maiya and quickly taken away.

Under the influence of Kiritsugu's suggestion magic, the doctors and patients in the hospital didn't find anything wrong in the whole process.

274:35:56

In the guest room of the Einzbern Annex, Irisviel was taking care of the girl brought back by Kiritsugu.

Although this girl named Lin Hao, as the Master, should be the enemy in this Holy Grail War, but after reading the information Kiritsugu transferred, she already completely regards the girl as her own.

When she tried again to smooth the girl's frown even in her sleep, her eyelashes trembled, and then she opened her eyes.

"Ah, Xiao Hao, you're awake." Irisviel stroked her forehead, "Don't force yourself to use that kind of magic if you're not in good health."

"Excuse me, are you..." Lin Hao blinked his eyes and looked around, as if he was surprised that he was captured but not restrained at all.

"Irisviel von Einzbern, Caster has told you about our identities, right?" Irisviel asked gently.

Caster's ability to collect information is even better than Assassin's. Presumably, the information of those Masters who didn't deliberately hide themselves has been known by this child.

"Well...my name is 'Lin Hao'" the girl raised her hand to look at the command spell on the back of her hand, and replied with a sigh of relief.

It seems that she cares about her Servent, but it's not as a force in the Holy Grail War, it looks more like a friend or a family member? Irisviel, who saw this, smiled even more gently.

"You... woo!"

Lin Hao stretched her arms and seemed to want to sit up and answer, but suddenly she fell to the bottom of the bed like a puppet with broken strings. Her eyes widened in horror, but she couldn't control her limbs at all.

"Xiao Hao, you can't get up yet," the wife quickly helped the girl who almost fell off the bed: "Your magic circuit is still exhausted due to excessive magic power consumption."

According to Kiritsugu, the child seemed to be frightened by him yesterday, and rashly activated a spell that only Caster or a very high-level magician could activate, which made her already bad physical condition worse.

"You should know... I am Caster's Master, right? We are enemies, right?" Lin Hao seemed to try to exert strength but failed. In desperation, Irisviel helped her to lie down again.

"I know~ But Xiaohao is a good boy, so it's okay~" Irisviel smiled at her while reaching out to touch her head.

Lin Hao looked very disapproving but had nothing to say.

"I..." She seemed to finally think of what to say, but just as she opened her mouth, her eyes suddenly lost their luster, her breathing stopped suddenly, and her arms drooped limply.

"Xiaohao?!" Irisviel was taken aback, and quickly used healing magic on the girl who suddenly passed out.

Because it was not an injury but a disease attack, especially with some diseases that were originally impossible to concomitant, the effect of healing magic was very limited. Lin Hao resumed breathing after a thin layer of sweat appeared on Irisviel's forehead.

"Sorry Xiaohao...my healing magic can only cure 'foreign' injuries and diseases..." Irisviel put away the magic light in her hand and said apologetically.

Not only was she paralyzed by her chronic disease, but also various diseases that she did not know how to transfer to her body. Although many of them have been cured, the damage caused still left traces. ", but another disease became more serious.

Using the terminology of the handheld games that Illya likes to play, if Irisviel's treatment is "supplementing HP", Lin Hao's current state is "reducing the upper limit of HP", which is totally wrong.

"Take me back to the hospital...there is Caster..." Lin Hao said weakly after regaining consciousness.

"No, Caster's workshop has been taken away, while you were unconscious..."

"What! That guy—did he blow up the hospital!... Cough, cough, cough!"

The girl suddenly struggled violently to remember, which resulted in a violent cough, and finally blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth, and she fell back into a complete coma.

"Hi!!"

274:04:11

"It seems that I am thoroughly hated, whether it is Caster or her Master."

Emiya Kiritsugu was checking the completion of the magic circle drawn on the chapel floor, after listening to Irisviel's narration, he showed a self-deprecating expression.

"Caster has an advantage in intelligence gathering. He may already know your past deeds. That child just became a Master, and he heard that he was going to fight a so-called 'Magician Killer'. Of course, he would be afraid." Alice said. Because Phil spent a lot of mana to treat Lin Hao before, his tone was a little weak at this time.

"She was born in a family of magicians in country C. Even though she was not educated due to illness, she must have heard a lot of anecdotes about the world of magicians," Kiritsugu carefully checked whether the patterns drawn with mercury were distorted or mottled, One side analyzed: "This shows that there are guys with similar behaviors to me in the country she is in, because I can guarantee that I have never done something like 'blow up a hospital' - obviously just disabling all magic tricks." It's just a formula."

"But Kiritsugu is completely different from them." Irisviel approached her husband and said in a proud tone: "Creating a world where she no longer needs to bear other people's sorrows is not your dream." Is it the ideal in your heart? The child will definitely understand you."

"The current me is not qualified to ask her to understand." After confirming that the magic circle is in good condition, Kiritsugu shook his head and stood up: "I prayed to the Holy Grail for such a miracle because I don't know how to save the world, and she firmly believes in herself Saving the world is the right way and wishing on the Holy Grail to make it happen, if this is a race, I'm halfway there and she's almost at the finish line."

Hearing this declaration of almost admitting defeat, Irisviel smiled instead.

"But you didn't stop." She took Kiritsugu's arm: "Even if you admit that the child's way of 'saving the world' is correct, you still haven't changed your mind, have you?"

"..." Kiritsugu was silent.

The only person in this world who can understand Emiya Kiritsugu has always been Alice Viel. Even Hisu Maiya, who is like a master and apprentice and has fought side by side for many years, only supports his actions unconditionally, but Alice But Phil understood and accepted everything about him, just like at this moment, when even Kiritsugu himself was shaken, she could clearly see his heart.

"Although Kiritsugu you will use the number of human lives as the pointer of the balance of 'who is more worthy of saving', but that is an expedient measure when there is no 'miracle', what you really want is that no 'anyone' sacrificed for it World, this 'anyone' includes that child, your wish is one more person than her." Kiritsugu saw that the smile in Irisviel's eyes became more obvious, as if he felt that he could preach to himself happy.

"It's so embarrassing to be preached..." Emiya Kiritsugu turned his gaze to the holy relic placed on the altar. It was made of gold, decorated with dazzling blue enamel, and engraved with the long-lost fairy in the middle. The words, the scabbard like a work of art: "Thank you, Ai Li, I have already thought about how to get along with that 'Knight King', although it may make that girl named 'Lin Hao' hate me even more."

"No~" Alice Feier shook her head, "Xiao Hao is a good boy."
