I'm really not an old sword

"Is it okay to invite classmates to play at your home?"

"Then please don't look for me then."

"Isn't it too much to not welcome the senior when he comes? Or are you afraid of falling in love with him, Sakura?"

Toosaka Rin crossed her arms across her chest, with a confident expression that said, "I know a lot about love."

"After all, Sakura, you actually wanted him to come to Fuyuki, right? Otherwise, why didn't you just interrupt me like I did with the boys I recommended to you before?"

Why don't you just interrupt your sister?

Sakura was a little confused.

She turned her head and glanced at the sleeping Lin Qingsu out of the corner of her eye, and she understood.

so similar.

Apart from the different hair color and some differences in appearance, his height, demeanor, tone of voice, and even the way he was sleeping were almost the same as that person.

The similarity was so high that she subconsciously couldn't bear to embarrass him.

But he is not that person after all.

"There's no chance between him and me."

"Not always."

"That's not necessarily true." Ying sighed softly, "Maybe my sister likes him and is just using my name to cheer herself up."

"what?!"

Toosaka Rin, who was full of confidence just now, suddenly jumped up and down.

"What are you talking about?! How could I possibly like someone I've only met twice?"

"Do you think I am that kind of person, sister?"

"We are different! Didn't you say he was very kind?"

"Sister, I think I like this type of handsome guy."

"Huh?! W-What are you talking about?! I absolutely will not steal the man my sister likes, you can rest assured about that!"

Matou Sakura said faintly: "I haven't denied that I don't like this type."

"I...!"

Seeing that she couldn't convince her sister, Toosaka Rin simply gave up and said, "Anyway, I've already invited them. You can do whatever you want when the time comes!"

Sakura sighed.

This was also the problem that troubled her the most. Rin had already said that it would be too awkward to refuse with an excuse like "I have something urgent to do".

Besides, Rin finally... Oh right, Rin? !

Matou Sakura's eyes lit up.

Why not pair him and my sister together?

This way, I can not only help my sister deal with her emotional problems, but also turn this person who I feel somewhat familiar with into a brother-in-law who is at a certain distance but not too distant. Maybe I can also solve the problem of my sister always wanting to introduce me to a boyfriend once and for all.

Kill three birds with one stone!

"I can entertain him with you then, but you need to promise me one thing."

Toosaka Rin asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

"Let him live in your house."

......

At 7:30 pm Tokyo time, the plane arrived safely at Narita International Airport.

After saying goodbye to the two sisters Rin and Sakura.

Lin Qingsu left the airport and took the tram and bus to the Shatiao home she remembered.

The scenery along the way, whether it was the once prosperous urban area or the once deserted suburbs, was completely different from what he saw in the simulation.

"Thirteen years have passed."

Fortunately, when we arrived at Sajo's house, the mansion was still standing.

Lin Qingsu walked to the front door and rang the doorbell.

After waiting for a long time, no one answered from inside, but a puzzled voice came from behind.

"you are?"

Lin Qingsu turned around and saw a middle-aged woman with a bag standing behind him.

"Excuse me, is this the Sajo residence?"

"Yes, are you here to see Sajo Ayaka?"

"Well, I'm her classmate. I haven't seen her for a long time. I happened to be in Tokyo and wanted to meet her. Do you know where she is?"

"You've come at a very bad time." The middle-aged woman shook her head regretfully. "She just went on a trip abroad a while ago, and now there's no one at her house."

"What about her father and sister?"

The middle-aged woman looked at Lin Qingsu in confusion.

"Mr. Sajo Hiroki has been dead for many years."

"As for the eldest daughter of the Sajo family, she left the Sajo family after the 1991 Tokyo earthquake. I heard she went around the world to look for someone, and she never returned."

"Aren't you Ayaka's classmate? How come you don't even know this?"

Hearing this, Lin Qingsu made up an excuse and left.

There are regrets for sure, but it doesn’t matter anymore.

Compared to the magical and illogical "he simulates the past in the future", it is more like the philosophical question of "which came first, the chicken or the egg?"

He is not ashamed to say that his main purpose of coming to Tokyo was to experience the unique Japanese culture and get away from home for a while.

During adolescence, he was still attracted by Brunhilde, and was teased by Meli every day at home. Lin Qingsu was really afraid that if she stayed at home for a while longer, she would not be able to bear it one night.

The thought of marrying a woman like Mary for the rest of my life was terrifying.

"Find a hotel and go experience the bubble bath tomorrow night. When we're done, we can go to Fuyuki or return to London."

Because she was reluctant to spend the money, Lin Qingsu did not take a taxi, but took the tram back to the city.

After getting off the car, before he found the hotel, it started raining, and the rain got heavier and heavier, and soon turned into a downpour.

The bean-sized raindrops hit the ground and thick smoke rose up.

Lin Qingsu bought an umbrella in the supermarket and asked the clerk for the location of a nearby hotel.

But the rain was too heavy. Even with an umbrella, he was soon soaked. The white smoke all over the ground made it almost impossible for him to see the road in the distance.

He didn't know how long he walked, but when he looked up again, a huge mansion appeared in front of him.

"Is this the Linglongguan family?"

Looking at the familiar mansion in front of her, Lin Qingsu felt it was a bit absurd for a moment.

Chapter 45 Linglong Pavilion's Mother's Surprise

"That's just the way it is."

The white-haired maid bowed slightly to the woman in her nightgown.

"A student from the Clock Tower who got lost on a rainy day?"

At Linglong Pavilion, the mother listened to the sound of heavy rain coming from outside the window.

Looking at the company's financial reports in recent days, he said nonchalantly: "In that case, find him a guest room."

"Yes."

......

Anyway, what happened was that after waiting at the door for a few minutes, Lin Qingsu was led by the maid into this luxurious villa mansion.

Even late at night, there were still many white-haired maids passing by in the corridor.

They were in a hurry, with joy on their faces, as if something good had happened. When they saw their friend leading a strange man in, they all looked at them in surprise and curiosity.

There are also many large dogs sitting in the corridor.

"Those are the young lady's pets. Please don't worry. As long as you don't do anything dangerous, they won't hurt you..."

The maid who led the way stopped talking before she could finish her words.

Because those ferocious hunting dogs - the biggest guarantee for the Linglong family besides the dense forest outside - all showed expressions of fear the moment the blood-red and creepy eyes saw the man behind her.

Yes, fear.

The huge body crawled on all fours and trembled on the ground the moment it saw Lin Qingsu.

He kept whimpering pitifully.

It looked like he had encountered an invincible natural enemy, feeling terrified and helpless.

"This dog is quite cute?"

Lin Qingsu glanced at the hound at her feet, squatted down and touched its head.

The skin is hairless and rough, just as fierce as its appearance.

To be precise, it was no ordinary hound, but a modified "familiar" controlled by a magus, possessing the power to tear intruders into pieces in seconds.

With such a large number, even a color magician could tear it into pieces. It is worthy of being the number one magic family in the Far East.

The more Lin Qingsu looked at it, the more she liked it.

Just ask yourself, which man doesn’t want to have a loyal mastiff that is fierce outside and lovable at home?

Logically speaking, it would be easy for them to tear him, a half-baked magician, into pieces even if they picked one of them alone. But seeing such a mighty hound with fierce eyes crawling on the ground, sticking out its tongue and wagging its tail at him, Lin Qingsu inexplicably found it very cute.

The maid stopped and looked at Lin Qingsu who had an innocent face, then looked at the pug-like demon dog, with fear in her eyes.

The reason why the lady dared to agree to let him stay temporarily in Linglong Pavilion was that she trusted the dozens of demon dogs responsible for guarding.

They also firmly believed that even if there was a magician who wanted to harm the Linglong Pavilion family and successfully broke the magic circle of the dense forest and broke in.

These magic dogs, which have a natural resistance to magic and are considered magician killers, can easily tear their enemies apart.

But now, all confidence was shattered by the scene before his eyes.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? I just happened to learn some healing magic yesterday. Although the time I spent learning was short, I'm very confident in myself. If you need anything..."

"No, thank you for your concern. I just didn't get enough rest."

The white-haired maid hurriedly shook her head, not daring to look at Lin Qingsu, fearing that her eyes would reveal some emotions that should not be revealed and anger him, so she buried her head deeply.

The 'healing' magic trick I just learned yesterday?

Who would believe that you learned healing magic when you are afraid of even demon dogs?

As soon as he came in, he couldn't wait to use me as a test subject? How cruel is this person!

The white-haired maid suppressed her fear and stammered, "It's getting late. I'll take you back to your room to rest."

"Oh, oh."

Lin Qingsu looked at the demon dog that was being held in his arms and trembling with excitement, and felt a little regretful.

I wanted to ask them if they sold dogs, but after thinking about it, I temporarily gave up the topic because it would seem very impolite to bring it up suddenly.

"Then trouble you."

......

After reading the financial report, Linglongguan's mother showed a look of satisfaction.

Thirteen years ago, although the head of the Linglongguan family, her husband, died in the Holy Grail War, the Linglongguan family was the one that benefited in the end.
