Lin Ye could tell at a glance using his clairvoyance.
Kirei Kotomine originally intended to backstab him, but before she could act, Gilgamesh, who was playing a game, suddenly activated his Omniscient Star ability and told Kirei that Cú Chulainn had Clairvoyance A+ and that if Kirei tried to ambush him, he could give him a golden coffin. Trusting Gilgamesh, Kirei abandoned the plan.
"So, you've decided to help Bazett?"
Lin Ye looked at Cú Chulainn in front of him, and Cú Chulainn scratched his head helplessly. "He's our descendant after all, so of course we should help him if we can."
Hearing Cú Chulainn say that, Lin Ye nonchalantly released the Heavenly Chains from Cú Chulainn's body.
"Alright, you can go now, but let me warn you, I won't be so polite next time we meet."
Hearing Lin Ye say that, Cú Chulainn casually stretched his limbs and said...
"Haha! Me too. You probably don't know just how strong I am right now!"
Cú Chulainn was very confident in himself. The five major rewards he received greatly increased his strength. To put it bluntly, he only used five-tenths of his strength when he fought against Archer.
"Hey! Where are you going, kid! Master, let's talk again next time! I have to go!"
Suddenly, Cú Chulainn shouted in one direction and then leaped out, though it was unclear whether he had actually seen anyone.
Seeing Cú Chulainn leave, Lin Ye turned to look at Rin Tohsaka, who in turn looked at Lin Ye and said...
"Lin Ye, do you want to come home with me? Xiao Ying... misses you so much."
Rin Tohsaka has seen Sakura hiding in her bedroom, secretly looking at Lin Ye's photos, more than once. She doesn't understand why Sakura can't forget Lin Ye even after ten years.
Hearing Rin Tohsaka's words, Lin Ye shook his head. "At this time, Sakura will probably be asleep."
Although it was only a short separation for Lin Ye, it was ten years for Xiao Ying. She should at least prepare a small gift or something.
Hearing Lin Ye say this, Rin Tohsaka nodded silently. Indeed, it was getting late, and Sakura should go to sleep.
"Then I'll go back first."
After Rin Tohsaka finished speaking, she was about to leave with Archer. As Archer passed by Lin Ye, he glanced at Lin Ye, as if he were sizing him up.
Looking at Red A's eyes, Lin Ye said to him, "I have a question for you, you don't need to answer me now."
Hearing Lin Ye's words, Red A looked at him in confusion and said, "What?"
“A criminal has tied five innocent people to a trolley track. A trolley is coming towards them, and you can pull a lever to change the trolley to another track. But the criminal also ties another person to the same track. Now, would you pull the lever?”
"The trolley problem? What a boring question." Red A finished speaking and was about to leave, but Lin Ye's voice rang out behind him.
"Yes, a boring problem. But it almost drove your father crazy."
"What!" Red A was suddenly stunned. He looked at Lin Ye in front of him. Just what did this man know?
"It's nothing. Think about this silly question. Sometimes, this question isn't silly at all."
After Lin Ye finished speaking, he left, leaving Red A still pondering Lin Ye's words with his head down.
When Archer looked up, he saw Rin Tohsaka's murderous gaze.
"You rascal! You were hiding something from me all along!"
"Uh……"
Red A was truly suffering in silence at this moment. He suddenly understood the meaning of Lin Ye's words before he left.
He just wanted to expose himself! Sure enough, his master probably already has serious doubts about him.
"That guy... he's really ruthless."
…………
Meanwhile, Cú Chulainn returned to his master.
Bazett looked at Cú Chulainn as he returned and asked...
"So, Lancer, have you found out anything about the Tohsaka family magician?"
"Haha, of course, how could that red guy possibly be a match for me!" Cú Chulainn said with immense pride. "Archer is definitely no match for me, and his Master can't defeat you either, don't worry. However..."
At this point, Cú Chulainn's previously jovial expression turned serious. "However, I encountered an incredibly terrifying person. His strength... was extremely strong."
"Is that so?" However, seeing Cú Chulainn so serious, Bazett proudly puffed out his chest. "Although I don't know how strong this person you're talking about really is, as a descendant of the Red Branch Knights and Lancer, your master, it is my honor to fight against a true hero."
..... . 0
Seeing Bazett's serious expression, Cú Chulainn burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! You're truly our descendant! That's right! So what if Lin Ye is strong! I'm not one to be trifled with either! I've been beaten by him so many times! I've wanted to get my revenge for a long time!"
"Huh? Ancestor, you were... um... beaten up by him?"
Cú Chulainn...
What did Cú Chulainn say?
Not just me, even Fergus, the leader of the Red Branch Knights, was beaten up by him.
"Haha! That's not important!"
Cú Chulainn immediately stopped talking. Good heavens, his glorious history was almost discovered by his descendants.
"Ahem, alright, so what do we do now?" Cú Chulainn quickly changed the subject.
As expected, the naive Ba Jie was swayed; she thought about it for a moment and then said...
"We've gathered information on Archer. Now, let's wait for Saber to arrive and then begin the Holy Grail War."
"Okay, shall we go find Saber's master now?"
“Okay.” Bazete nodded.
After saying that, the two figures vanished from the spot.
Chapter 322 Sakura! Reunion!
"Sister, I'm going to school!"
Early in the morning, Sakura made breakfast for Rin Tohsaka and then left with her little backpack.
She knew that Rin Tohsaka had been exhausted all night yesterday, so she decided to let her sister skip class and catch up on her sleep today. After all, even a magician is only human.
“Sakura…” Rin Tohsaka called out to Sakura, who was about to leave.
"Huh? What's wrong, sister?" Sakura looked at her sister, puzzled, wondering what else she wanted to say.
"No...it's nothing." Rin Tohsaka shook her head, still not telling her that Lin Ye had returned.
After all, she shouldn't have been the one to say this.
"Then I'm off, sister." Sakura waved to Rin Tohsaka, then gently closed the door and walked towards the school.
Throughout the journey, Sakura, nicknamed "527," kept her head down, lost in thought. She knew her older sister had participated in the Holy Grail War, and she had originally planned to join in as well. However, her sister told her that the Tohsaka family would continue to exist, and if she were to suffer the same fate as her father, she would have to shoulder the responsibility for the future of the Tohsaka family.
"Sister will be alright, she's so outstanding... If Brother Lin Ye were here, he would definitely find a way to relieve her of so much burden."
Sakura thought of Lin Ye again, and just then, she suddenly felt a warm breeze blowing on her face.
"Ok?"
Sakura looked up and around, and her eyes widened in shock. All along the roadside, the cherry blossom trees were in full bloom at once!
Sakura strolled forward step by step, seemingly intoxicated by the warm breeze along with the beautiful cherry blossoms.
"But it's only February."
The cherry blossoms in Fuyuki City usually bloom in April. Logically speaking, these cherry trees should only have some buds at most right now. How could there be such a sea of blooming flowers?
Call ~
A gentle breeze blew again, and the beautiful cherry blossoms drifted and swayed with the wind, all of them surrounding Sakura.
Sakura had already sensed something was wrong, but the shower of blossoms was breathtakingly beautiful. At that moment, Sakura saw a man smiling at her from under the largest cherry blossom tree ahead.
"Lin... Brother Lin Ye..."
brush!
In an instant, Sakura understood everything! She ran frantically towards Lin Ye, not even bothering to appreciate the falling petals around her. At that moment, Sakura didn't care about anything else; all she cared about was the person in front of her!
thump!
Like a swallow returning to its nest, Xiaoying threw herself into Lin Ye's arms, holding him tightly. She was terrified that everything before her was just a dream.
Until she felt Lin Ye gently hug her from behind, and then whisper in her ear...
"Sakura, it's been a long time."
Woo!
She was certain, absolutely certain. Yes, this was indeed her older brother.
She buried her head in Lin Ye's arms, finding solace only in his scent.
"Ahem, alright, alright. This little girl is so big and still cries so much. Everyone's watching."
"what!"
Xiaoying quickly broke free from Lin Ye's embrace, but she still held onto Lin Ye's hand tightly, as if afraid that he would run away if she let go.
