Chapter 72 04
Although relying on Qin Yin's [relationship], Zhou Quan was accidentally able to become the "closed disciple" of the current head of the Tosaka family, Tosaka Rin, but in fact, he did not immediately return with this powerful female magician. This place in Fuyuki City.
Instead, Rin arranged for him to go to Ikebukuro, a city that has nothing to do with the Holy Grail War.
When he first heard the news, Ah Zhai was really at a loss.However, after Tohsaka Rin's careful explanation, he can somewhat understand her good intentions for this arrangement:
"The so-called [Holy Grail War] is a life-and-death contest between magicians. Since Matsuoka-kun is not a real magician, it's best not to get too involved here. You don't need to guess, Fuyuki at this moment The city must be full of familiars sent by the contestants, even if it is to ensure that your own information will not be leaked, you can't go there now!" Facing A Zhai's doubts, the female magician just looked down with her chin raised The man's subtle expression changed, and he explained proudly, "Besides, the place in Ikebukuro can be regarded as somewhat related to the existence of 'abnormality'. For a novice like you, it is also a good place for testing. ?”
Since she was talking about this matter, Zhou Quan naturally had no choice but to refuse without knowing the current affairs.
So according to the female magician's order, only one month before the start of the Holy Grail War, he was thrown alone in an alley in Ikebukuro.
There is no one-on-one teaching, and there are no special instructions.
Tohsaka Rin just left the man in this place and left.
Standing alone in the shadows, Azhai weighed the magic book in his hand with a wry smile: "Really, that kid Rin-chan is still as innocent as ever. He can hand over the magic book at home to outsiders without any precautions." , I really don’t know what to say.”
In fact, it's not surprising that Zhou Quan sighed. You must know that magic is a subject related to the degree of mystery. Almost every big family secretly keeps a lot of similar research materials.However, under the self-preservation, they are old-fashioned and never willing to disclose these ancestral and secret things in order to communicate with each other and make progress together.The so-called magic practice is often passed on from father to son, master to apprentice.As for the kind of public lectures, most of them teach some superficial and insensitive knowledge.Therefore, in the view of the traditional magician Tosaka Tokiomi Zhou Quan, Tosaka Rin's actions are undoubtedly a crazy act that subverts the tradition.
But what is even more embarrassing is that Zhou Quan at this moment not only has no right to accuse the female magician of dereliction of duty as the head of the family, but even he himself has passively become the beneficiary of Rin's "inconspicuous behavior".
For Zhou Quan, this is really a bad thing.
Fortunately, rather than being entangled in the serious proposition of "the irrationality of Tohsaka Rin's behavior", the current practical problems can attract his attention-it seems to be to urge A Zhai to work hard on magic, Rin When he left, he took all his identification and movable property with him.In other words, the current Zhou Quan has completely become a 'poor guy'.Not to mention considering the issue of accommodation, now he doesn't even have dinner.
But from another perspective, this is precisely the most brilliant part of Tohsaka Rin's teaching model:
'Look, I have already given you all the books that should be given, and you can obediently practice yourself for the rest!If you don't study magic well, then you can only wait for the end of the wind and sleep! '
As smart as A Zhai, he immediately read this subtext clearly.After thinking for a quarter of an hour, he couldn't help shaking his head and sighing again.
Sometimes he really doesn't understand whether Kariya's daughter (or his daughter) is smart or clumsy: You said that a genius like Tohsaka Rin herself took several days to master a magic trick; But now, she dared to directly ask such a useless magician from the Matsuoka family to achieve an 'overnight breakthrough'.
If Zhouquan hadn't been quite sure that there were no familiars from Rin around, he would have mistakenly thought that this was a new test given to him by the Tohsaka girl.
Pulling out a strand of hair sadly, Ah Zhai didn't know what to do.At this moment, his stomach growled twice inappropriately.
Hearing this voice, he restrained his hesitant look instead.After all, the matter has come to this point, there is no room for him to hesitate!
He started off almost without hesitation, and quickly left the alley.
Hmph, how can he say that he Zhou Quan was once an excellent gem magician, even if he changed into a bad shell, he could still display five or six out of ten of his supposed abilities.And just relying on five or six out of ten, it is enough to support him to overcome the difficulties in front of him.
As long as a simple hint, all problems will be solved!
———————————— I am the dividing line roaming the streets ————————————————
Compared to Iwatobi or closed-off Fuyuki in the countryside, Ikebukuro can be regarded as an extremely prosperous metropolis.After nightfall, both sides of its streets are full of feasting lights, exuding a busy atmosphere all night long.At this moment, most of the pedestrians in twos and threes on the streets of Ikebukuro are fashionable young people.In this way, it made Zhou Quan even more incompatible with this place.
In fact, Ah Zhai is quite dull to some extent.It wasn't until he was bumped aside maliciously for the third time that he finally realized belatedly that he might not be welcomed by the residents here at all.
After realizing this, he immediately stopped and looked around seriously for a moment.Then, as soon as the goal was determined, Ah Zhai walked into the high-end jewelry store on the corner of the street almost without hesitation.
If it was placed in a normal place, his strange behavior would probably directly arouse heated discussions among passers-by.After all, homeless people and jewelry stores are two completely different existences.But for the residents of Ikebukuro, the current "abnormality" of A Zhai is more normal.Almost as soon as he entered the door, many pairs of eyes stopped paying attention to this new face.
That's right, it seems that this man is just another weirdo on the streets of Ikebukuro!
After reaching such a consensus, passers-by on the street looked away with little interest.
On the other hand, Zhou Quan, who didn't know about it, chose the magic medium very carefully.
Facing the suspicious gaze of the salesperson, his eyes almost fell into the various gems in the window.
"It's really troublesome, this place of Ikebukuro." While complaining in a low voice, he knocked on one of the transparent glass covers.
Seeing this, the salesperson not far away rushed over angrily.
In fact, I don't blame him for being angry, after all, A Zhai's behavior is quite misleading.At least for the salesperson, the man's actions are very likely to cause damage to the showcase, so he seems to plan to teach this homeless man who strayed into his shop a lesson.
But the closer they got, the more the anger in the salesperson's eyes became weaker, replaced by more obvious confusion.In fact, when he really arrived at A Zhai's side, the initial anger almost dissipated.
On the contrary, the kind of polite smile that can only be seen in front of big customers is almost brightly engraved on his face.
"Excuse me, are you planning to buy this ruby ring?"
Respectfully, he took out the gem from the counter in front of Zhouquan, and the little brother immediately followed Zhouquan step by step.
And then, he obediently satisfied every request of A Zhai.
It wasn't until Zhou Quan withdrew his hands in satisfaction and expressed that he was about to leave that he nodded in a daze and returned to his original position.
After that, not to mention collecting money from A Zhai, even when the man was about to leave in a big way, he didn't stop him again.
This is the magical power of magic!
Putting a ruby ring between his hands with emotion, Zhouquan walked away from the shop with a relaxed expression.
Now, he doesn't have to worry about the source of cash for the next month, nor does he need to care about the so-called livelihood issues.
In fact, the only thing he can worry about is probably the dishes tonight, right?
It's a pity that his leisurely and contented mood was shattered in the next second——
Almost as soon as he went out, a huge billboard of astonishing size was wrapped in a gust of wind and flew straight past his nose!
Suffering such an impact unpreparedly, even though he didn't actually suffer any harm, A Zhai's face still turned pale in an instant.You know, unless he uses magic to protect his vital parts in advance, according to the strength of the attack just now, even if he is as strong as him, he is very likely to die!
Fuck!Isn't this scientific? !
Why are billboards flying across the road! !
This is even more unscientific than my magic trick! ! !
The symphony was playing crazily in his heart. At this moment, A Zhai could only stand there in a daze, watching the two culprits rushing over one after the other: at this moment, the laughter and cursing of the two windy men , accompanied by billowing smoke and dust fluttering down, easily shattering his self-confidence.
'As expected, Ikebukuro was chosen by Rin-chan. This is really a testing ground for hidden dragons and crouching tigers!If the residents here have the strength to survive those two people, I am afraid that according to my current level of magic, it is really possible to capsize in the gutter. '
Withdrawing all his pride, the man who felt that the tiger was in peace, slowly left in another direction.
He felt that he had better find a base first, and then slowly appreciate the 'style' of Ikebukuro.
In the gentle night wind, Ah Zhai's back looked extraordinarily bleak...
