Chapter 370: ·The Cruel Crime Scene

【After the two finished puffing away, they finally got to the point.】

【Inorai: "Tell me, why did you come here?"】

【Aozaki Touko: "Well, there are private reasons."】

【Inorai: "Don't hide it from me, Touko."】

【"Please don't use that old form of address."】

【Aozaki Touko laughed: "Besides, that 'result' is a bit abnormal."】

【Inorai: "Your tone sounds like you're saying there's a problem."】

【"It's not that, but..."】

【Aozaki Touko paused for a moment and said: "If one senses the possibility of an unexpected arrival, would it be strange for a criminal to target the Golden Princess?"】

【"... You, you are still the same, always saying things that make people uneasy."】

【Inorai pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray Aozaki Touko handed over and said: "I thought you were eyeing the rumored secret treasure."】

【Aozaki Touko: "What are you referring to?"】

【"Oh my, I didn't expect you to be unaware."】

【Inorai laughed: "That holy relic with the bloodline of a certain Phantasm species that appeared at the underground auction not long ago and was won by Izelma."】

【Aozaki Touko: "... I see, that is indeed a top-tier item."】

【Inorai: "I also thought you would be interested in this."】

【Aozaki Touko: "I was just behind on the news. Now that I know, I will find a way to get my hands on it. If necessary, I will even borrow money from the Clock Tower in my sister's name."】

【Afterward, Aozaki Touko thought of something.】

【"Teacher Inorai, Lord Byron seemed to call out to you at the social gathering."】

【"You saw that?"】

【Inorai waved her hand: "It's nothing important. Besides, I had another goal for the social gathering, but unfortunately, I didn't meet them."】

【Aozaki Touko: "Who would that be?"】

【"The Lord of the Modern Magic Department."】

【After leaving these words, Inorai waved her hand and left.】

【After the old woman was swallowed by the mist and the night, Aozaki Touko took off her glasses and rubbed her temples.】

【"What should I do? I really can't get motivated."】

【"... Did I forget something?"】

Tohsaka Rin: "Does this refer to Siegfried's Bodhi leaf?"

Kayneth: "It seems it hadn't fallen into Aozaki Touko's hands yet at this time."

Darnic: "Everyone has secrets; I feel this banquet isn't that simple."

Waver: "However, I didn't know Aozaki Touko had a younger sister."

Extra Feng Xi: "Her sister is no simple character either; she is one of the few existing Magicians."

Gordes: "Actually a Magician!"

Fiore: "I didn't expect Magicians to still exist in the modern era."

Extra Feng Xi: "It should be said that Magicians have never ceased to exist."

Kayneth: "Extra Feng Xi, how do you know so much?"

Extra Feng Xi: "That's none of your business."

Empress: "Magic? I didn't expect anyone in the modern era to understand these things."

Shishigou Kairi: "These two sisters are too heaven-defying; the older sister is a Grand, and the younger sister is a Magician."

Kotomine Shirou: "Human potential is indeed immense."

【Time quickly reached early morning.】

【Reines, bringing Gray, arrived at the back door of the Moon Tower as agreed.】

【The door was not locked, just as the Golden Princess had said last night, and they were able to infiltrate easily.】

【Carefully making their way to the third floor where the Golden Princess was staying, Reines knocked on the door.】

【"Miss Tiadra, are you inside?"】

【There was no response from the room.】

【Reines sensed the room; there was no sign of any living person inside.】

【Reines suddenly had a very bad premonition and immediately wanted to open the door, but the door was locked.】 ===== CHAPTER 372 =====
