After all of them are reborn, who would still want to marry 2.5 Jo Satoru?

There was another long silence.

Yosano Akiko was speechless for a moment. This world is always so cruel and will never change because of personal will.

Good intentions may lead to bad things, and the wish for others' happiness will always lead to an unfortunate outcome.

This is the case with the Undead Legion and also with Lan Tang’s death.

Whether you are a genius or a fool, you are actually just a drowning person in the river of fate.

"However, we still have a chance." Edogawa Ranpo cheered up. "No matter what, the Holy Grail War is a rare opportunity."

"Whether it's to kill the Noose and the Colorless King, or to make a wish, we must try first."

Edogawa Ranpo sat up straight again. His clothes were wrinkled because of his previous movements, but the listless aura on his body had dissipated a lot. His eyes were fixed on the door of the Tohsaka family.

He is not naturally good at emotional thinking and only focuses on observation and logical reasoning, but he is willing to learn.

Learn how to express apologies from Yosano Akiko, learn how to take responsibility from Fukuzawa Yukichi, learn how to correct mistakes from Dazai Osamu, and learn how to bring happiness to others from Ayatsuji Yukito.

Edogawa Ranpo was willing and already constantly learning. All he needed was an opportunity, a very good opportunity, to be able to grab Liuli's sleeve and act coquettishly to her like he did in the past, saying to her:

"Ranpo-sama, I really know I was wrong. Before making any decision in the future, I will always ask for your consent. If you don't agree, I won't do anything."

"From now on, no matter what your wish is, Ranpo-sama will do his best to fulfill it for you. I will do whatever you want me to do."

"Liuli, can you forgive me..."

Could you please not leave me?

Yosano Akiko nodded, without commenting on Edogawa Ranpo's idea.

She herself has suffered even more beatings from society. In a sense, this society and this country have never been kind to her.

When she thinks about it carefully, the only people who were truly good to her, apart from her parents who died early when she was young, was Miss Liuli whom she met later.

But her reaction to the other party's departure was not as intense as Edogawa Ranpo's.

Perhaps it was because she was no longer at the age of being at a loss, and she had to apologize after doing something wrong, regardless of whether the other party accepted it or not, but expressing apology was the only thing they could do at the time.

If Miss Liuli accepts, then she will stay by her side to make up for her mistake. If she doesn't accept, then she will stay away from her and make up for her mistake.

She couldn't let it go now, and maybe she wouldn't be able to let it go in the future, but dwelling on the mistake was useless. Finding ways to make up for it was the way to move forward.

That's why she chose to come to Fuyuki with Edogawa Ranpo.

Sometimes, Yosano Akiko would think that this group of people were really terrible for Miss Ruri.

When she met them, they were at their most childish age and in the worst situation, so much so that they would grab hold of a spider silk thread and not let go.

I don't want to leave her, I don't want to be abandoned by her, I don't want to be separated from her.

Sometimes, Yosano Akiko felt that she might have been turned gay a long time ago, and had some twisted delusions in her heart.

Of course, most of the time, she firmly believed that she was just grateful to Miss Liuli.

"He's out."

Edogawa Ranpo stood up suddenly and walked straight towards the strange hooded man not far away, and Yosano Akiko hurriedly followed.

The man in front of him had completely white hair, the left half of his body was almost completely stiff, his left eye was blind, and half of his face was disfigured, making him look particularly terrifying.

Edogawa Ranpo only glanced at him, then immediately opened his eyes wide and shouted, "Yosano, go into the house and save people!"

Matou Kariya, who was stumbling forward at the door, fell forward upon hearing this and fell directly down the stairs. He knelt on the ground in a daze and said blankly:

"It's hopeless, it's been hopeless for a long time..."

"Shichen is dead...Aoi...Sister Aoi is also dead."

"It's all Shichen's fault... all of this, all of this is Shichen's fault!"

Edogawa Ranpo pulled his hood with both hands and dragged him into the house. Matou Kariya didn't know whether it was because he was too emotionally broken or because he had used too much magic power, but he didn't resist at all.

He was dragged up the stairs by Ranpo and into the house he had just tried so hard to escape from. He had no time to resist or summon a servant.

The Tosaka House adopts a combination of Japanese and Western styles in decoration. It has both a large modern Western-style flat with huge floor-to-ceiling windows from which you can directly enjoy the beautiful scenery outside, as well as Japanese-style decorations and a complex interior structure.

When Edogawa Ranpo walked in, he saw two "corpses" in the middle of the living room. There was a big hole in the chest of the male corpse, and blood was constantly oozing out. The blood almost dyed the carpet red.

There were obvious strangulation marks on the female corpse's neck, accompanied by large areas of dark bruises.

"You're quite powerful. First you killed the male host with your heroic spirit, and then you strangled the female host to death."

"I'm really curious, didn't you come here to save that little girl? And your way of saving her was to kill her parents?"

Edogawa Ranpo looked at Matou Kariya who was lying on the ground in a daze, and his words were somewhat aggressive.

Matou Kariya still had no reaction after hearing these words. He just stared blankly at the body of Tohsaka Tokitoki not far away, and there seemed to be a void in his heart.

This void is still expanding, bringing the outline of Matou Kariya's personality to the brink of collapse, and even gradually deforming to the point of being unrecognizable.

It was not until this moment, when he saw the two corpses in front of him again, that Matou Kariya realized his mistake, but it was too late.

He never thought that he would kill Tohsaka Tokiomi, just as he couldn't imagine what he would become after Tohsaka Tokiomi's death.

Matou Kariya only felt empty and at a loss. Perhaps because of his uncontrollable mental turmoil, he couldn't even remember why he wanted to kill Shichen.

What kind of expectations made him return to the Matou family after fleeing for many years and participate in this Holy Grail War?

Matou Kariya thought blankly: Didn’t he come to find Shichen in order to ask him to take Sakura home?

For this reason, he was willing to transfer his Command Seals to Shichen.

Give up the qualification to participate in the Holy Grail War and give this opportunity to Tōsaka Tokitoki.

Let's let Toshika Tokimoto marry Sister Aoi, and let's let Toshika Tokimoto send Sakura into the Matou family's den, forcing her to endure being invaded by the cresting bugs at a young age, just to transform her magical attributes.

Give it to this enemy whom he has always envied, jealous of, and even resented.

But Tousaka Tokitoki rejected him.

Standing in the living room, Tosaka Tokitoki said proudly, "Although there's no need to participate in this Holy Grail War, having the qualifications is still something to be commended."

"Kariye, you're finally acting like a decent person, willing to shoulder your responsibilities and obligations as a magus of the Matou family."

"What, bring Sakura back? Are you kidding me? Are you insulting the Tohsaka family? Or are you insulting the Matou family?"

"You've been away for so long. Even if you wanted to come back and inherit the position of head of the family, it would be impossible. Why don't you give this position to Ying? It's just the best option for her."

"Suffering? What magician doesn't suffer? I believe in Sakura, and I also believe in the agreement with the Matou family."

"Don't say any more. It's absolutely impossible for you to use the so-called Command Spells and the qualification to participate in the Holy Grail War to bring Sakura back to me. You can leave now."

Matou Kariya's mind went blank as he heard these words. The next moment, Saber Lancelot's sword was unsheathed and pierced Tōsaka Tokitoki's chest.
