Fate: As a ninja, I just want to eat free food from Type-Moon

Bad translate this is a waring so dont complain 

"Oh, I found something amazing."

　　Higashino Zou pointed at the chest of the headless male corpse, where a Tai Chi pattern was carved with a knife.

　　Ryougi Shiki was stunned when she saw it. Tai Chi can also be called Liang Yi, and the Tai Chi pattern on the corpse was obviously a hint to her.

　　"The deceased was hacked to death with a knife. His head was probably cut off after death. Judging from the size of the wound on the deceased, the murder weapon should be similar to the short knife you used."

　　As a ninja, obtaining intelligence from corpses is a must. Higashino Kanade has seen countless corpses like this and can analyze 70% of them with just a simple glance.

　　"And according to the information I got from the police, the last victim's limbs were chopped off, and his entire body was in the shape of a swastika. The victim before that also had a Tai Chi pattern on his chest. The patterns on the bodies are all related to religion. Is this a hint of something?"

　　Higashino Kanade looked at Ryougi Shiki, who was stunned and asked angrily, "Are you doubting me?"

　　"Of course not. I think you misunderstood what I said."

　　Higashino Kanade showed a well-behaved and sweet smile. His harmless look made it hard for people to associate him with the calmness with which he had just examined the corpse.

　　"How can a murderer leave such obvious information about himself to hint to the police: I am the murderer, come and catch me!"

　　"What if the murderer is this kind of person?" Ryougi Shiki paused and said, "Isn't that what happens in movies? Some murderers will leave messages to provoke the police to prove that they are superior."

　　"Ryougi Shiki... Sister Shiki, can I call you Sister Shiki?" Higashino Kanade suddenly asked an irrelevant question.

　　Ryougi Shiki was stunned and rejected it immediately: "No! I'm not that familiar with you, a person of unknown origin!"

　　"Sister Shiki is just a name to make it easier for us to communicate. You are older than me, so it is only natural for me to call you sister." Higashino Kanade said shamelessly, "Similarly, you can also call me Kanade."

　　"No! Why are you saying such irrelevant things? Answer the question properly."

　　Ryougi Shiki doesn't like people calling her so affectionately because it makes it seem like they know each other very well. Ryougi Shiki can't make friends with others because she hates humans!

　　Even Kuroto Kirei had to pester her for several months before Ryougi Shiki reluctantly allowed him to call her "Shiki".

　　"Okay, Shiki-sister!"

　　"Don't call me Sister Shiki!"

　　"Okay, Shiki-sister!"

　　Ryougi Shiki tightly gripped the handle of the dagger. She had never been so angry as she was today. This shameless child was so annoying!

　　"Forget it, whatever you want, just answer my question."

　　Considering the difference in strength between the two, Ryougi Shiki did not draw her sword after all. She glared at Tono Kanade fiercely and finally chose to be patient.

　　That's about it.

　　Seeing that Ryougi Shiki's body was trembling slightly with anger, Tono Kanade knew that he had achieved his goal. If he pressed his luck any further, it would end up hurting more than it gained.

　　"Do you know what the difference is between an ordinary murderer and a serial killer?" asked Higashino Kanade.

　　"...For different purposes." Ryougi Shiki answered hesitantly.

　　"Yes, the purpose is different."

　　Higashino Kanade nodded in agreement and said, "The former is killing for the sake of killing, while the latter is killing for desire. If you just want to kill, one knife is enough, but like this corpse, it is obvious that it was killed after being tortured. This shows that the criminal is not in a hurry to kill, but enjoys the process of killing."

　　"And a person who enjoys killing would definitely want his desire to be satisfied for a long time, rather than leaving himself the possibility of being caught."

　　Higashino Kanade thought of the artistic duo in his previous life. Sasori and Deidara both killed for art. For them, freedom was more important than anything else. They didn't want to be caught by the five major ninja villages and say goodbye to their art!

　　Dongye Zou has seen many crazy people.

　　"That makes sense. I didn't expect you to be so smart."

　　Ryougi Shiki was impressed by Tono Kanade's reasoning. Not only did her anger subside, she couldn't help but praise him.

　　"Look at this."

　　Dongye Zou pulled open the collar of the corpse and pointed at the collarbone, where two neat rows of teeth marks were clearly visible.

　　"I have guessed the desire of the murderer." Dongye Kanade slowly uttered two words: "Appetite!"

　　"The murderer must be a character like Hannibal, who kills to satisfy his own appetite. However, in order to frame you, the murderer did not finish his meal. I'm sure he must have felt very uncomfortable at that time."

　　"And this half-bitten tooth mark is the ironclad evidence that you are not a murderer. Excuse me, Sister Shi, you don't have the habit of eating people, do you?"

　　There was a sound of breaking air, and in response to Dongye's movement, a dagger was swung over.

　　Dongye Zou quickly ducked his head and said with a smile: "It's just a joke, haha, how could someone as beautiful as you eat people?"

　"Next time you make such a joke, I'll chop your mouth off!"

　　Ryougi Shiki's eyes were unusually cold, and Higashino Kanade could feel a real murderous intent.

　　Dongye Zou coughed lightly and quickly changed the subject: "Although we cannot infer who the murderer is based on these alone, one thing is certain, that is, the murderer must be targeting you."

　　Ryougi Shiki didn't say anything. Through Tono Kanade's reasoning, she had determined that the murderer could not be her or her other personality, and she was able to come across the corpses by chance every time, so the murderer must have some intentions towards her.

　　She was a little angry.

　　"Why?"

　　Ryougi Shiki looked at Tono Kanade, there was no anger in her eyes, only pure confusion.

　　Dongye Kanade looked down at the long, empty staircase and sighed, "Someone's coming. Let's end this conversation. I'll contact you later. If you don't want to be mistaken for the murderer, leave now."

　　After saying this, Dongye Zou rushed into the bamboo forest. He was very fast and disappeared in the bamboo forest in just a few breaths.

　　Ryougi Shiki was still not satisfied and wanted to catch up, but Tono Kanade was too fast, so Ryougi Shiki had to give up the idea and hurriedly left the murder scene.

　　After a while, a man walked to the crime scene and screamed in fear.

　　…

　　"It's so exciting to just pretend and leave!"

　　After returning to his home, Higashino Kanade took off his yellow raincoat and breathed a sigh of relief.

　　There are still four days left until the end of the novice mission. Today's meeting with Ryougi Shiki was not a coincidence, but a carefully planned one.

　　Dongye Zou didn't know who the murderer was. Guanbuzi City was so big that looking for a murderer among hundreds of thousands of people was like looking for a needle in a haystack. If he had no plan to look for him, Dongye Zou would have died together with the cheating system.

　　Although Higashino Kanade doesn't know who the murderer is, he knows who the protagonist of "Kara no Kyoukai" is. According to the nature of the general plot, the murderer will definitely be dealt with by the protagonist in the end, so if you follow the protagonist, you will definitely gain something!

　　So Higashino Kanade went through the discharge procedures early, and with his extraordinary good looks, he easily found out the address of Ryougi's house, and then squatted at the door of Ryougi's house, waiting for her to appear and then follow her.

　　Based on the hiding skills she mastered as a ninja in her previous life, Ryougi Shiki did not find him. Finally, one afternoon later, Higashino Kanade found the body with Ryougi Shiki and deliberately created this meeting.

　　PS: The third update, keep typing!

Section 8 8. Working is not as good as living off others

　　It goes without saying that you should choose between fighting alone and exhausting yourself, or lying down holding the protagonist's thigh all the way.

　　Moreover, Higashino Kanade also has selfish motives. Everything he did today, whether it was deliberately making Ryougi Shiki angry or showing off his reasoning ability, his ultimate goal was only one, and that was - to live off her!

　　That's right, although the emergence of the system has given Higashino Kanade a new path, Higashino Kanade's biggest wish is still to live off his wife.

　　Fighting and killing is so tiring, and you can lose your life if you are not careful. In comparison, living off someone is much more comfortable.

　　As long as he becomes the son-in-law of the Yomiuri family and gets close to Sister Shiki, no matter what dangerous mission the system issues in the future, even if he has to fight against Gaetia, as long as he throws Sister Shiki out, the mission can be easily solved, and it is not impossible for him to become Otsutsuki Kanade.

　　So for a better life in the future, Toino Kanade will definitely eat Ryougi Shiki's free meal!

　　After taking a shower, Tono Kanade made himself a cup of tea. While drinking it, he recalled his interactions with Ryougi Shiki to see if he had made any mistakes.

　　Ryougi Shiki is a heroine who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. It is difficult for ordinary people to get close to her heart. In addition, she has been instilled with a lot of common sense since birth, so the difficulty of becoming friends with her is simply sky-high.

　　Only a warm-hearted man like Kurodori Kan'iya who is persistent can melt the ice outside of Ryougi Shiki and touch her still warm heart.

　　If Tono Kanade wants to win over Ryougi Shiki, the best way is to learn from Kuroto Kirei's persistence and use the frog-boiling method for several years, and the relationship will naturally come to fruition.

　　But Higashino Kanade no longer has time. Based on the tracking over the past two days, Higashino Kanade discovered that the relationship between Kuroto Kiriya and Ryougi Shiki has reached a level that can be described as: more than friends, but less than lovers.

　　If Higashino Kanade learns from Kurogane Kirei's slow strategy and conquers people like that, then in a few years Higashino Kanade can become Kurogane Kirei's best man.

　　So in order to intercept the murderer midway, Higashino Kanade could only choose to use a rough method to leave a very deep impression on Ryougi Shiki in a short period of time, to get closer to her by pretending to be a victim, and then show her own value and let her know that Higashino Kanade's role is indispensable if she wants to catch the murderer.

　　I believe that after this series of operations, Ryougi Shiki has completely forgotten him, and she will probably toss and turn because of him tonight.

　　Higashino Kanade took a sip of tea happily, with a very comfortable expression on her face.

　　"By the way, Shiki-sister is much prettier in real life than in the anime. I just don't know what the other heroines are like. You can go to Fuyuki City to see them after you complete the mission."

　　Higashino Kanade stroked his chin and looked at the time.

　　11:21, I guess everyone in the Liangyi family has fallen asleep.

　　Higashino Kanade took out a blank scroll from his ninja tool bag, picked up a brush and quickly wrote a line of words before tying the scroll up.

　　Hai-Xu-You-Shen-Wei

　　Higashino Kanade bit his thumb quickly, formed a seal, and slapped the table with his palm.

　　The art of psychic communication!

　　Ghostly symbols spread out from Dongye Zou's palm to form a circular magic circle. As a puff of white smoke dissipated, a toad as big as a fist was summoned out.

　　The summoning technique is a C-level ninjutsu, which is not difficult. The stronger the summoned creature, the more chakra it consumes.

　　In his previous life, Tono Kanade was a disciple of Jiraiya and signed a contract with the toads of Myoboku Mountain. Although he didn't know why this kind of ninjutsu could still be used in the Type-Moon world, it was a good thing that it could be used, and Tono Kanade didn't have time to think about the reason.

　　"Sure enough, with my current chakra, summoning this kind of toad is already my limit?"

　　Higashino Kanade wiped the sweat from his forehead, felt the chakra in his body being exhausted, and reached out to poke the little toad's face.

　　The little toad didn't react at all, it just rubbed its face against Dongye Kanade's fingers obediently.

　　The toad summoned by Higashino Kanade is the most common toad in Myoboku Mountain. It has low intelligence and basically zero combat power. Its usual role is just to scout the enemy and transmit intelligence.

　　Higashino Kanade placed the written scroll to the little toad's mouth, and the little toad swallowed the scroll, which was twice its size, in one gulp.

　　"Go and deliver the scroll to Ryougi Shiki."

　　"Quack!"

　　The little toad agreed, jumped out of the window of the Higashino family in a few steps, and disappeared into the dark night.

　　…

　　It's late at night.

　　The cold winter is coming to an end, but the biting cold wind still makes the bamboo forest rustle.

　　Listening to the sound of the wind outside the window, Ryougi Shiki tossed and turned in bed, and the scene of her meeting with Tono Kanade during the day flashed through her mind from time to time.

　　Confusion, anger, disgust, curiosity, and a hint of gratitude.

　　This was the first time in Ryougi Shiki's life that she was so upset. She was unwilling to lose to a boy younger than her. She hated that the boy was so close to her when they just met for the first time, but she had to admire the boy's strength and reasoning ability, and was grateful that the boy had cleared her suspicion.

　　If it weren't for Higashino Kanade clearing her of suspicion, she would probably still be doubting herself and Zhi.

　　Ryougi Shiki climbed out of bed. She couldn't sleep, and feeling upset, she decided to blow some cool air, hoping it would calm her down.

　　Ryougi Shiki walked to the window and opened it, letting in the bright moonlight. The dust particles in the room were blown by the cold wind and were clearly visible in the moonlight.

　　Ryougi Shiki looked up at the moon in the sky. It was surprisingly quiet around her.

　　After a while, Ryougi Shiki slowly said, "Remember he said his parents died at the hands of a murderer. You can ask Qiu Long to check his identity later."

　　Quack--

　　The sound of frogs croaking suddenly came from very close. Ryougi Shiki looked down and saw a toad as big as a fist jumped onto the windowsill at some point.

　　"Go!"

　　Ryougi Shiki reached out to drive it away, but the toad suddenly opened its mouth wide and spat out a scroll that was much larger than itself.

　　"What the hell!"

　　Ryougi Shiki was shocked by this incredible scene, but she did not retreat in fear. Instead, she showed an interested look and reached out to catch the toad.

　　With a bang, the toad turned into white smoke and disappeared as soon as Ryougi Shiki stretched out her hand.

　　Ryougi Shiki was stunned for a moment. A toad that could turn into white smoke was obviously not within her common sense. After hesitating for a moment, she slowly picked up the scroll spit out by the toad and took a look.

　　"Shiki, meet at McDonald's downtown at 11am on Saturday. Don't bring anyone else. Higashino Kanade."

　　"I told you not to call me Sister Shiki!"

　　Ryougi Shiki threw the scroll aside angrily, closed the window and climbed back onto the bed.

　　My restless heart finally calmed down but it became chaotic again. This Higashino Kanade is really annoying.

　　Should I stand him up tomorrow to piss him off?

　　Ryougi Shiki, who always felt she was being bullied, was eager to get back at her. She hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to go to the appointment.

　　Rather than suppressing Higashino Kanade, she wanted to know who the murderer was. The murderer who deliberately framed her was much more annoying than Higashino Kanade.
