Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

Chapter 341 This is the Empire

Opening the door, there is no strong light, nor is there a room full of science fiction.

What greeted Shirou Emiya's eyes was an extremely empty cabin that had been abandoned for a long time.

The entire wooden house was empty except for a straw mat.

Table, bed, cabinet, stove, it can be said to be an empty room with nothing.

But it can be judged from the damaged clothes on the ground, as well as some garbage, wood and other things that have decayed for a long time, that someone lived here a long time ago.

I don’t know the reason, maybe it’s because life was too hard and I didn’t persevere.

Emiya Shirou touched the dust beside the window sill. It was extremely thick. Maybe no one had lived in this room for several years.

"Hey! That woman! Stop!!!"

And just when Shirou Emiya was about to take a closer look at what else was there in the environment he had just arrived, a scolding sound came from outside the house.

"Bitch!"

"Uhhh!!!"

Before Shirou Emiya could open the door, there was a slap and the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I just wanted to find something to eat for my son!"

"knock!"

"knock!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!!!"

"knock!"

"knock!"

The sound of the head making close contact with the ground kept coming, and blood began to slowly flow out of the head of the woman in ragged clothes.

But it only flowed out a little bit, and then it quickly solidified.

It's not because this woman has a strong healing ability, but because the blood in her body is too scarce, and there is not much blood left at all.

She was extremely weak.

Tremblingly, he took out the pancakes in his hands.

There was despair in his eyes.

"Untouchable! Bah!"

Standing in front of the woman was a young man wearing armor. He spat at the woman, then raised his fist and planned to hit her on the head.

"puff--!"

The young man's hand was firmly caught, and he looked extremely unhappy at the person beside him who was stopping him from punching.

"Hey, it turns out to be Captain Emiya. What's the matter?"

The young man's smile turned flattering the moment he saw Emiya Shirou, as if he had seen some high-ranking official. He even hunched over his back and looked at Emiya Shirou with a fawning expression.

"Is this armor the Empire?"

Shirou Emiya will never forget the first time he took action against a human. What this young man is wearing is the armor of the Empire.

Coupled with the current scene where Shirou Emiya felt extremely uncomfortable and nauseated, it was almost certain that this was the Empire.

It was an empire that was extremely corrupt and no one could live a good life.

Just, Captain Emiya?

He was a little confused, but did not refute.

Because the woman seemed to have seen something terrifying, and she started to kowtow to the young man even more violently.

Obviously, this woman also knew him.

But he has never appeared so blatantly in the Empire, even after his reputation spread after the battle with Esdeath.

That should be the same as Night Raid. He is a wanted criminal. How could he become the captain of the empire?

The captain of the Imperial Guard is not a good position. The orange-haired girl Seleu who blew herself up is the captain of the Imperial Guard.

Such indiscriminate and extreme justice made Shirou Emiya feel sick. It was definitely not justice.

"what are you doing here?"

Emiya Shirou could only suppress the thought of punching the guard in his heart and asked aloud.

"This untouchable, she secretly took away the resources belonging to the noble XXX. Her crime is unforgivable. I am going to execute her right here."

"Anyway, I don't know how many such untouchables have died in this alley, and other untouchables also hope that such a thing can happen."

As he spoke, the guard swept around, and Emiya Shirou followed his perspective and looked around.

Under such a scorching sun, in the shadows, there were countless skinny people with black hair and smeared faces, staring at the woman's position.

There was the sound of hunger in the stomach, and the gurgling of almost no saliva.

Their mouths were all slightly open, as if they were waiting for what the guard was going to do next.

"Are they going to eat this woman?"

Emiya Shirou's expression was full of shock. He could not imagine that there could be cannibalism.

"Isn't this natural? These untouchables have nothing to eat. Now that the frontline and the revolutionary army are constantly fighting, these untouchables have nothing to eat except themselves."

"Now we can only tighten our belts, and we can only eat a bowl of pork head and a bottle of wine every night as a late-night snack. Life is getting really difficult now."

The guard seemed to feel that life had been extremely difficult recently, and kept shaking his head.

"————"

Emiya Shirou suppressed the anger in his heart and clenched his fists tightly.

The empire now is more difficult than when he left. At that time, when he saw the common people living in the alleys on the street, they only snatched the food that the nobles did not want.

And now, they have begun to eat people.

There is no food left for them to survive, and they can't find any other way except eating people.

Now they only eat people who were killed by guards, nobles, or people who couldn't resist starving to death.

When he was extremely hungry, Shirou Emiya couldn't even imagine what would happen.

But the woman in front of him was still saying sorry. Even though her body had become so weak, she still kowtowed tremblingly.

"When Lord Esdeath returns from victory, our good days will come!"

The guard looked very excited and seemed to admire Esdeath very much, with golden light shining in his eyes.

"Get up and get out of here right now! Don't let me see you again!"

Emiya Shirou said something very unskilled in an arrogant tone, telling the woman to get out of here immediately.

He really couldn't say such insulting words, and he felt extremely awkward the moment he said them.

When the young woman heard that she was about to leave, her eyes were full of light and she looked at Shirou Emiya with great gratitude.

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."

He quickly hugged the naan in his arms tightly and ran out of the alley, rolling and crawling. When the guard saw this, he wanted to stop her, but Shirou Emiya stopped him with one hand. .

"Captain Emiya, I won't bear the blame for this nobleman's fault."

He didn't seem to care about Shirou Emiya's strange attitude. Instead, he backed away with great fear and looked at Shirou Emiya with an extremely worried expression.

Why he flattered Emiya Shirou as soon as they met was not because of his high position as captain, but because like that woman, he was afraid of Emiya Shirou from the bottom of his heart.

Chapter 342 Emiya No. 97

"There is a situation on Street 18. Through cleaning, we discovered the secrets left behind by the 87th Night Raid Organization. Please ask the guards patrolling this area to seal off this area quickly."

It was an extremely ordinary bracelet that looked like it was made of steel. It didn't have any carvings on it, it was just an extremely dark steel bracelet.

Just along with a voice that felt extremely familiar to him, Emiya Shirou could clearly feel the fluctuation of magic power coming from this bracelet.

Emiya Shirou is not like Tohsaka Rin, and he is not as sensitive to the magic around him as a normal magician.

If Tohsaka Rin hadn't appeared in front of him so directly, he wouldn't have known that his classmate was actually a magician.

"Copy that! Captain Emiya!"

The guard quickly replied to the ring, and then looked at Shirou Emiya with great humility.

"Captain Emiya, I'm leaving for now!"

He expressed his apology to Shirou Emiya and quickly ran out of the alley.

"The fluctuation of magic power?"

Emiya Shirou rubbed his unbelieving eyes. He had been to this world before. Logically speaking, no one in this world has a magic circuit, so naturally it is impossible————

No, I'm afraid there is someone in this world who can do it.

He remembered that when he was fighting Esdeath, the blue-green light flashing on her sword was a symbol of enhanced magic.

Emiya Shirou didn't have many memories of being in prison at that time, because he was poured into a large amount of medicine at that time, and the powerful pain was accompanied by the medicine. At that time, he only felt that his consciousness had begun to split. If it weren't for the Avalon in his body, It has always worked.

I'm afraid that I will become a zombie of the empire, a person who has lost his own thoughts.

Moreover, the guard clearly called the man who heard the voice from the bracelet Captain Emiya, but he did not feel the slightest doubt about his presence here.

Emiya Shirou had an ominous premonition.

He also left the alley and entered the streets of the Empire.

"Come and take a look, fresh vegetables! Fresh vegetables!"

"Do you need to buy hoes or swords? Guest, this way! This way!"

"Exquisite jewelry! Exquisite jewelry! Wearing it can make you look ten years younger!"

"Delicious **, freshly baked **!"

The shouts continued to spread from the streets, which was in sharp contrast to the alley where Emiya Shirou was staying before, where you could even hear a needle drop on the ground.

The sparse crowd walked slowly on the street, their heads lowered, as if they didn't hear the shouts at all.

And if you observe carefully, you can also see the faces of the shouting residents showing exhaustion. The whole street looks extremely lively, but it is filled with a heavy atmosphere.

"Eh? What's your number Emiya? How come I've never seen you before?"

A hand was placed on Shirou Emiya's shoulder. This was a voice that Shirou Emiya was very familiar with, as if he had heard it not long ago.

No, it should be said that Emiya Shirou could hear it almost all the time.

Because that is your own voice.

Emiya Shirou turned his head and looked sideways. It was a young man with short brown-red hair, brown pupils, and eyebrows shaped like lightning at the end, wearing what looked like ordinary clothes from the Empire.

"Artificial Man----"

Shirou Emiya's eyes twitched a little. In fact, the guard's expression and address when talking to him, plus the magic fluctuations from the bracelet and the voice that he was very familiar with.

After all, the homunculus is the one who provides magic for the servants in the Yugdomrenia clan. Shirou Emiya will of course think of this situation first.

But when he really saw a homunculus that looked exactly like him, Shirou Emiya didn't know how to express his thoughts now.

"Why is your hair red and white?"

This homunculus that looked almost exactly like Shirou Emiya looked very fearless. He stretched out his hand directly towards Shirou Emiya's head, trying to grab the red and white hair.

"Swish——!"

Shirou Emiya tilted his head to avoid his outstretched hand. Although he had a very good personality, he would also mind not touching his head like this.

What's more, it was a person he was not familiar with at all.

Although it was his own homunculus.

"Eh? Can't I touch it?"
