A person is in Type-Moon, goes out, and then picks up an Outer God girl?

"Master?"

Van Gogh's weak call made Duanmu Ye a little confused. Since the beginning, Van Gogh often sat in a daze alone, and no matter how he called her, she didn't respond.

At first he thought that Van Gogh was still sleepy, so he let her rest in the room while he decided to go downstairs to cook. Unexpectedly, she followed him out later, but like a jellyfish drifting in the water, she floated from here to there, and no matter how he called her softly, she seemed to be in a state of distraction and did not respond.

Duanmu Ye had never seen Van Gogh in such a state, and he had never seen Van Gogh in such a state in any of the information he knew.

Despite this, Duanmu Ye did not choose to disturb Van Gogh. Instead, after making some simple French dishes, he made a cold dish with the jellyfish that had been refrigerated in the refrigerator at some point.

As the only Chinese dish on the table, the jellyfish naturally attracted some attention from Van Gogh, and he kept it there without moving it to other dishes.

"This is jellyfish salad, which is one of my favorite dishes."

Seeing Duanmu Ye's explanation, Van Gogh's face showed a little guilt, but also a little expectation.

As he slowly raised his head, the blush on his face became particularly obvious. Even at this moment, there was a hint of confusion in Van Gogh's eyes caused by anticipation.

"Well... that... Master... you could try it... what does it taste like?"

Van Gogh's voice was trembling, and even her body couldn't help shaking at these words, as if she was excited from the bottom of her heart. The expectation that was about to overflow in her eyes made Duanmu Ye feel a little cold on her back.

"Taste? Isn't it sweet and sour?"

Duanmu Ye frowned slightly, because Van Gogh's words were too worrying. It was obviously the first time for Van Gogh to see this Chinese dish, but she seemed to be more looking forward to seeing this dish being eaten by others than herself, a coastal person who was used to eating cold jellyfish.

It was clearly the jellyfish that I processed, and it was clearly the dish that I made. Both the ingredients and the seasoning were strictly controlled by me. Why... why did I feel a chill down my spine despite Van Gogh's repeated invitations?

With such thoughts in mind, even at this moment, my heart became a little hesitant.

Even so, Duanmu Ye still picked up the jellyfish on the plate that was emitting a fresh glow with chopsticks. Perhaps because of the presence of the Water Priest, Duanmu Ye even had the illusion that the jellyfish was still alive.

But how could a jellyfish that had been in the refrigerator for so long still be alive? Furthermore, Duanmu Ye wasn't sure when the jellyfish had been placed in the refrigerator, but judging by its freshness, he probably bought it yesterday when he and Van Gogh went shopping, and he simply forgot about it.

As he put the jellyfish on the chopsticks into his mouth, a taste he had never tasted before exploded between his lips and teeth. It was not the sweetness brought by soy sauce and sugar, nor the sour and spicy taste from vinegar and chili oil. Even the taste was much more crispy and tender than the jellyfish Duanmu Ye bought at the seafood market.

"How...how is it?"

There was a flash of stubborn madness in Van Gogh's eyes, but Duanmu Ye did not notice it. Instead, he nodded in praise after Van Gogh asked the question.

"Come to think of it, I don't remember buying this jellyfish. Does Van Gogh remember where he bought it?"

The taste was much more fresh, sweet and crispy than any other part of jellyfish Duanmu Ye had ever eaten. If possible, Duanmu Ye even wanted to know the purchasing channel of this jellyfish. So he looked at Van Gogh, who was showing a look of expectation and satisfaction, and wanted to know the origin of this ingredient from her.

However, when asked this question, Van Gogh shook his head and remained silent. Then he picked up the knife and fork at hand and began to enjoy the French dishes on the table.

Such a reaction made Duanmu Ye a little puzzled. He always felt that something seemed to be wrong, but he couldn't say it out loud for a while. He could only put the jellyfish into his mouth one bite at a time, constantly thinking in his memory whether he really bought such food that day?

Just when I was at a loss for the answer to the question I wanted to think about, there was a knock on the door outside. Even after a long period of no response, the knock became more intense.

The house was originally covered by Van Gogh's treasure, and it was almost impossible to do any damage from the outside or inside except under specific conditions. Just the noise caused by the rapid knocking on the door, as long as Duanmu Ye wanted, the whole house would immediately block out any external noise, thus ignoring the increasingly rapid knocking at this moment.

Want to go see it?

Pausing his thoughts, Duanmu Ye looked at the shaking door at the entrance not far away. He was not sure who the person outside the house was, but at least it was definitely not the landlord who rented the house to him, unless the landlord had also traveled through time!

“Duanmu…Duanmu!”

Through the gap in the door, a childish voice came from it and reached Duanmu Ye's ears.

That was Toosaka Rin's voice, it was Toosaka Rin's call. Duanmuye felt a little surprised that she could find this place again. You know, last night's tsunami also swallowed up the residential area. Duanmuye didn't care how many people were killed or injured, but the post-disaster reconstruction work must not have started so quickly.

Based on Duanmu Ye's understanding of the Japanese who live a good life, they would probably hold a disaster press conference in the morning, then make some apology remarks, and finally bow 75 degrees.

Finally, the remedial work was slowly carried out to repair the house losses and road damage caused by the unprecedented tsunami and floods. This is the Japanese speed.

Therefore, at a time when the streets have not yet been completed, Duanmu Ye is not sure that Toosaka Tokiomi would allow Toosaka Rin to run around outside at this time. To some extent, Duanmu Ye feels that this is actually a trap set by Toosaka Tokiomi to make him relax and let down his guard by making some guesses and doubts about his identity.

But is Tōsaka Tokiomi really the kind of person who would use his own daughter as a trap?

Duanmu Ye frowned. To be honest, he didn't want to open the door to welcome Toosaka Rin's arrival, because no matter how he looked at it, it seemed like an inevitable trap.

Tōsaka Tokiomi wasn't the type of person who would use his daughter as bait, but he also wasn't the type of person who would let his daughter run around during such a dangerous time.

The appearance of Tohsaka Rin must have a certain reason, and whether he wants to help her depends entirely on Duanmu Ye...

"What...what's wrong Miss Lin...is there something you want to talk to Duanmu about?"

Just when Duanmu Ye folded his hands and decided to sit back and watch, Van Gogh had already walked to the door and opened it while thinking.

Sure enough, the person standing outside the door was Rin Toosaka, who looked anxious. The moment the door was opened, Rin Toosaka called for help into the house.

"Brother Duanmu, please save my father! He hasn't come back since he left last night. Mom has fainted, and there's no one alive in all of Dongmu. You're the only one I can think of!"

Through Van Gogh's body, Duanmu Ye saw Toosaka Rin, who was almost soaked and shivering because of the cold wind blowing outside. At the same time, on her winter coat, which looked very valuable, there were some muddy and discordant things on the exquisite coat.

Such a scene made Duanmu Ye frown. He could probably imagine what Toosaka Rin had experienced before she found this place. Even the white socks on her feet were soaked in mud and water, looking a little out of place.

However, Duanmu Ye simply withdrew his gaze at this scene and responded in an extremely calm tone.

"Why me? Do we know each other well?"

Water, Wind, Flower: Chapter 80: Lin: Help me, I can do anything!

"Why me? Do we know each other well?"

Such cold words made Toosaka Rin, who originally had incomparable hope and showed a smile the moment she saw the person in the house, suddenly feel like she fell into an icy cave. Her whole body was covered with various water stains, which quickly brought her a biting cold at this moment, and even more of the biting cold came from the inside of her body.

His father, Tōsaka Tokiomi, had clearly agreed with his mother to come back at dawn, but so much time had passed and his father still hadn't come back. Even his mother, who had gone out to look for his father, fainted outside the gate of the Tōsaka mansion after seeing the tragic situation in Fuyuki City. It was with the help of Kotomine Kirei that he supported his mother, who was still in a coma, and brought her back to the Tōsaka mansion to recuperate.

From Kotomine Kirei, Tōsaka Rin learned about the experience of six Servants fighting together last night, and that her father had also driven Archer to participate. For herself and Kotone, he used the Command Seal to order Archer to take revenge on the ugly monster.

However, after that, his father disappeared. Even Kotomine Kirei, who had always been in contact with his father, said that he had never seen his father. He also did not go to the church after the war to receive the Command Seal reward that he should have received after successfully defeating the additional job.

Why...why was it my father who disappeared?

Toosaka Rin's tears streamed down her cheeks and dripped from her chin onto the blanket at the door. At this moment, Toosaka Rin felt extremely regretful. If she had not told her father about her experience, would he have acted in the dark as before instead of going deep into the battlefield and disappearing in such chaos?

Not only her own father, but even Archer, whom she called the strongest Servnat, was described by Kotomine Kirei as having retired. However, Toosaka Rin did not believe Kotomine Kirei's words. No matter how Kotomine Kirei explained, Toosaka Rin just could not believe that her father would fail and that Archer, summoned by her father, would be killed by someone else.

Isn't he the strongest Servant? Why can't he even protect his own father?

Toosaka Rin cried silently, but she had already shouted these words countless times in her heart, and even wanted to summon Archer again and question him about these words.

The drizzle brought by the wind wet the floor at the entrance, but Van Gogh, standing at the door, seemed to be unconcerned as he wiped away the tears from the corners of Toosaka Rin's eyes.

She...did not offer any comfort to Toosaka Rin. In fact, it was because Van Gogh did not know how to comfort others at all. So while wiping the tears from the corners of Toosaka Rin's eyes, Van Gogh also looked at Duanmu Ye who was sitting on the chair in the room from time to time.

At this moment, Duanmu Ye did not continue with his previous words. He did not accept Toosaka Rin's request.

To look for Tōsaka Tokiomi? Was he so mad that his head got stuck in a door that he went to help a guy who had once considered killing himself?

He, Duanmu Ye, could be said to be a fool who would let someone go on a whim, but he was not a fool who would be stupid enough to rescue an enemy.

He had no intention of accepting such a request from the beginning. What did Tohsaka Tokiomi's life and death have to do with him? Would Tohsaka Tokiomi adopt Gilgamesh if he saved him?

A mage family whose long-cherished wish is to pursue the Holy Grail. By the generation of Tōsaka Tokiomi, it has reached an unprecedented level of prosperity and accumulated considerable wealth.

Was it the most likely time for Tōsaka Tokiomi to give up his pursuit of the Source because he was rescued? Duanmu Ye knew with a flick of his toes that Tōsaka Tokiomi would not give up his pursuit of the Holy Grail, the Source. Even if he saved him, if he found out that he was a participant in the Holy Grail War, he might bring Gilgamesh to his doorstep the next moment.

Even though Gilgamesh was already dead at this moment, his body was destroyed by Arthur's sword of salvation, and there was no trace of him, there was no need to save him.

Moreover, the so-called principle that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility does not apply to Duanmu Ye at all. Without the cloak of a foreign god, he is just an ordinary person. He has nothing to do with any supernatural powers or ghosts.

Even if the saying "Heaven has bestowed a great mission upon this man" was put in front of Duanmu Ye at this moment, he would not be moved at all. This was undoubtedly a form of moral kidnapping for him.

Therefore, no matter how pitiful and helpless Toosaka Rin appeared, Duanmu Ye had only one thought from beginning to end.

That is, no help, absolutely no help!

As no more sounds came from the room, the disheartened Toosaka Rin bowed slightly towards the inside of the house, then bowed slightly towards Van Gogh, and then wanted to turn around and leave.

However, it seemed that she had not rested since she left the house. Even with the physical fitness enhanced by learning magic, after running since dawn, until the sunlight at noon was scattered through the thick dark clouds, Rin Tousaka's body finally couldn't hold on and fell to the ground.

Unlike the mud and puddles outside, under the shelter of the yellow house, there was no mud where Toosaka Rin fell, and even the fine rain falling from the sky did not show any sign of staining the grass.

The relatively soft cushion did not cause any harm to Toosaka Rin's body, which was at its limit at the moment, but Van Gogh still noticed that where Toosaka Rin fell, there were some soft tissue organisms that were thicker and softer than the surrounding grass, acting as a cushion and supporting Toosaka Rin's body. At the same time, Duanmu Ye's voice came from the room.

"If you have anything to say, come in and tell me. It's already like this. If Mr. Tokiomi comes back and sees this, I'm afraid I'll be in big trouble..."

These words made the eyes of Rin Toosaka, who had fallen to the ground, light up again, and after receiving such an order, Van Gogh bent down and gently helped Rin Toosaka up.

Although he didn't want to help Toosaka Rin find Toosaka Tokiomi, after all, Toosaka Rin was under his control. It would be fine if she had never come, but Duanmu Ye couldn't bear to see her showing such an attitude under his nose.

The warm room seemed to be able to heal all the pain and soothe all the sorrow. The already strong girl started wiping the tears that kept sliding down her cheeks from the corners of her eyes the moment she was put on the sofa, pretending to be strong and expressing her gratitude.

Duanmu Ye did not say anything, but just quietly tasted the dishes on the plate, while Van Gogh was next to Toosaka Rin, trying to comfort her.

"Brother Duanmu, please save my father, I will do anything!"

After a long time, Toosaka Rin, who was gradually calmed down, spoke again. The desire in her eyes was almost overflowing, and for some reason she had absolute confidence in Duan Muye in her heart.

They had only met for less than a day, but at this moment she believed that the man in front of her could find her father and bring him home.

Her mother has already fallen ill. If something happens to her father again, Rin Tohsaka cannot imagine what will become of the Tohsaka family in the future...

"Didn't you go look for Kotomine Kirei?"

Duanmu Ye spoke calmly. Even though Toosaka Rin had said that, that was not the point he grasped.

Being asked this question, Tōsaka Rin was stunned at first, then lowered her head. "Kirei came first. He said Archer had died in the battle and his father's whereabouts were unknown..."

But soon, Toosaka Rin raised her head and spoke again with an extremely serious expression, "But I know that father must still be alive, and he must be somewhere in Fuyuki!"

Toosaka Rin's attitude was extremely genuine, as if she truly believed that Toosaka Tokiomi was still alive and kept making requests to herself.

Duanmu Ye thought carefully, the only people still staying in Dongmu now, apart from some ordinary people who have returned to this land, are nothing more than that idiot who was the last one and the unscrupulous magician killer...

As for Kotomine Kirei, as the "most benevolent and kind" being who stabbed Tōsaka Tokiomi in the original work, Duanmu Ye has probably already guessed who took Tōsaka Tokiomi away.

Although he did kill Gilgamesh in a very novel way, he was unaware of Tōsaka Tokiomi's whereabouts from the beginning. In fact, Tōsaka Tokiomi's use of the Command Seal against Gilgamesh caused him to use the Sword of Separation that was originally intended for himself on Gil de Ray.

If he used the Command Seal to order Gilgamesh to attack Gil de Red in order to avenge Rin Tōsaka, then Tōsaka Tokiomi was somewhat impulsive. Or perhaps, the Tōsaka family's personality of always hanging the chain at critical moments is still so unique.

Obviously, that was the best moment for him to repel the enemy, but Tohsaka Tokiomi still resolutely gave up that opportunity and chose to avenge the kidnapping of Tohsaka Rin.

In response to this, Duanmu Ye couldn't help but sigh and looked in the direction of Toosaka Rin.

"You mean... you can do anything?"

Toosaka Rin pursed her lips, and the hesitation in her heart finally settled down. After all, in her opinion, the person who was best at finding people in the whole of Fuyuki was probably Duanmu Ye in front of her.

In her memory, Qin Yin was kidnapped by those bad guys and disappeared for such a long time, but she could still be found by Duanmu Ye. So her father must be able to be found too!

"Yeah, I can do anything!"

At this moment, Toosaka Rin was ready for any request the other party made of her. After all, it was she who asked her to do anything, and it was too late to regret it now.

As the head of the family, Rin Toosaka also knows clearly that the most important thing her father taught her is to keep her word and not to go back on her word. Even a selfish being like a magician should never easily treat his promises as empty words.

At this moment, Toosaka Rin closed her eyes, quietly waiting for Duanmu Ye to make some standard request to her, but soon, she widened her eyes and looked in the direction of Duanmu Ye with some disbelief.

"In that case, then give me a few shops in the commercial street. The Tohsaka family's shops shouldn't be short of these two, right?"

Toosaka Rin blinked her eyes and never thought that Duanmu Ye would choose two shops in the commercial street under such a question.

In fact, she had already thought of some very excessive conditions, such as marrying herself to him, becoming his servant, etc., but she never thought that Duanmu Ye would choose such a simple thing as a condition for helping her find her father.

Ao knew that the Tohsaka family's industrial chain almost covered the entire Fuyuki, and the Tohsaka family was involved in two-thirds of the city's content, the only difference was the proportion.

Even the commercial street that was mostly destroyed was purchased before his father left. As long as it was rebuilt, the rebuilt commercial street would become the fixed asset of the Tohsaka family. Just two shops...

Toosaka Rin gritted her teeth. Although she was not the head of the family yet and could not make any decisions, she was the only one who could make the decision now that her father had disappeared!

"When I find my father, I will explain everything to him. Even if he...even if he disagrees, when I become the head of the Tohsaka family, I will definitely fulfill this promise!"

Toosaka Rin was a little anxious. For some reason, she began to worry that her father would not agree with such a thing. Although the possibility and probability were not high, Toosaka Rin still gave a more accurate promise after a pause.

But Duanmu Ye didn't care about this problem. Seeing Toosaka Rin looking a little anxious, he couldn't help but chuckle.

"Of course I trust you, but I still want to confirm one thing with you. Regardless of life or death, are you determined to find your father?"

Almost at the moment when the words were made clear, Toosaka Rin's face turned pale, and a biting chill surged through her body from the inside, but even so, she nodded slightly.

"Yes, Brother Duanmu, whether my father is still alive or not, I want to see him again, even if it's for my mother..."

As a mother, Toosaka Aoi is still lying peacefully in the mansion. No matter how she calls, she cannot wake her up. Toosaka Rin does not want to lose her mother after losing her father. She wants to do her best to cheer her mother up. If possible, she also hopes that her father can come back to them alive.

Seeing this, Duanmu Ye did not hesitate. He slowly stood up and walked to Toosaka Rin's side.

"Then leave it to us. No one is better than me at finding people!"
