1995 was an eventful year. Although Sei Itō's Fuyuki City was relatively calm, the neighboring city wasn't.
In March 1995, a man with glasses named Katsuya Katsuya and a girl named Two Rites met.
In April, a boy named Shibatsune also met Two Rites.
In May, Shibatsune and Katsuya Katsuya met for the first time.
In July, which was the month Hier woke up, Shibatsune accidentally killed someone, and then he was forced to awaken his [Origin] by Ren of Huangye School.
On August 31st, Shibatsune began a murder investigation …
However, in mid-November, something inevitable happened as scheduled. — That was the death of Takemiya Katsuya.
For this reason, Sei Itō deliberately went to Takemiya's house as a friend and saw Takemiya Shiro, who was full of grief.
Of course, at this time, only Takemiya Shiro existed in the Takemiya family. As for Alice Phil, less than a year after the end of the Holy Grail War, she ended her life because of the erosion of magic power. Until her death, she didn't tell Takemiya Katsuya that Sei Itō could save her and let Takemiya Katsuya send her to see Sei Itō.
At this point, the Takemiya family returned to the right track after a few twists and turns. Except for Sakura Toosaka who didn't have a crush on him like the original …
Then in December, Shibatsune dropped out of school.
Then, it was the year of 1996.
On February 3rd, Katsuya Katsuya witnessed the existence of Two Rites at the murder scene.
On March 5th, Two Rites died, and the Yang personality in her body died.
It was not until this time that the incident in the neighboring city came to an end.
Then on a certain day in May. Sei Itō stepped into the neighboring city with a black formula box and finally stopped in front of a dilapidated building that looked like it was about to be demolished.
This was an old-fashioned three-story building. The style was shabby and old-fashioned. It was square-shaped and stuck between two slightly taller buildings. It looked very unsightly.
Looking at the building in front of him. Sei Itō smiled and walked into the building.
The first thing he saw was a dirty and messy cement staircase covered with a thick layer of dust. A few tattered and blackened newspapers were casually spread on the ground, becoming the only eye-catching thing on the staircase.
Sei Itō walked up the stairs.
"Ta, ta, ta, ta, ta …"
After two or three turns, Sei Itō stood in front of a pitch-black door.
"Come in." Sei Itō was about to knock on the door. A female voice was the first to ring out, coming from behind the door.
Ito Sei smiled, held the handle, and opened the door.
"Haha."
Sei Itō saw a room with an area of more than 60 square meters and the size of an office. The furnishings were messy. In front of him was a black leather sofa that looked a little old. In front of the sofa was a short coffee table. Behind the coffee table and in front of the wall, a dozen small televisions that looked like abandoned televisions were piled up in three rows. The light screen flickered and played different TV programs. Fortunately, there was no sound. Otherwise, the mixed noise from the different channels would definitely annoy him for a while.
Behind the televisions and Shafa was an old office that looked very heavy. A woman in a pale yellow Kesmi shirt was sitting there. She had a voluptuous figure and exuded the charm of a mature woman. She wore a pair of glasses on her face and her long orange hair was tied into a ponytail. She was smoking a thin female cigarette in her mouth. Leaning back on the chair, she raised her head and looked at Sei Itō who was at the door.
"What a rare guest. The famous Yellow Magician actually came to my door. I'm really flattered," the woman said in a sarcastic tone. It was hard to tell if she was trying to persuade him or if she was mocking him.
"That's enough, Cheng. I'm not like those guys in the executive department. You don't have to test me. "Sei Itō said as he closed the door and walked straight into the messy room.
Cheng, full name Aoqi Cheng, was the eldest daughter of the Aoqi Family, a magician family. However, because of the magic seal, she and the Aoqi Family. She and her biological sister completely broke off. She was also one of the protagonists of the Night of the Magicians that happened between 1988 and 1989.
The reason why Sei Itō knew her was because of the time he studied in the Chronometer Tower. In addition, Sei Itō deliberately got close to her. The two sides that had no conflict of interest basically became friends. When they were free, they discussed their understanding of magic with each other.
However, the good times didn't last long. Sei Itō left the Chronometer Tower early because he wanted to fish in troubled waters during the Holy Grail War. Although Aoqi Cheng still stayed in the Chronometer Tower, she also became the target of the Chronometer Tower's' seal designation 'because of her research. Finally, more than a year after Sei Itō left, she also escaped from the Chronometer Tower. She concealed her identity and hid from the members of the Chronometer Tower's executive department. Therefore, she was very wary of magicians from all walks of life, which led to the previous conversation.
"How did you find me?" Aoqi Cheng asked as she took out the cigarette and spat out a puff of smoke from her mouth to cover her expression.
"In Japan, I still have some influence. And the city you're staying in is also one of the main areas covered by my influence, so I can get some basic information about outsiders first. "Sei Itō said with a smile.
This was indeed true. As a major shareholder of the Asakami Society, which had gradually become a consortium, Sei Itō could influence the secular forces through Yasō Asakami. It was really easy for them to monitor the situation of outsiders in the city. In addition, as one of the storyline towns in Kongjing, the whole city was completely connected to the city where the headquarters of the Asakami Society was located. Therefore, the influence of the Asakami Family was even stronger than that of the local snake, the Yin and Yang Family. Therefore, it was difficult for Aoqi Cheng to escape from Sei Itō's surveillance without using magic.
"You didn't come here just to catch up with me this time, right?" Aoqi Cheng nodded slightly. She reached out and picked up the dried cigarette pack from the table. She took out one of the three remaining cigarettes and put it in her mouth. She struck a match and lit it. She took a deep breath and exhaled smoke.
"I really came to see you. After all, we haven't seen each other for a few years. I miss you very much." Sei Itō said with a smile.
"Don't learn from Koenig Aruba. Otherwise, don't blame me for falling out with you." Aoqi Cheng said with an ugly expression.
"You still remember that pervert. If you didn't say his name, I would have forgotten that there was such a guy in the world." Sei Itō said with a shrug.
"But you can rest assured. Although you have a certain attraction to me and make me want to push you down, it's not to the extent of that guy."
"Alright, tell me why you're here." Aoqi Orange said impatiently.
Seeing this, Sei Itō tactfully shut his mouth. Then he picked up the box in his hand and held it flat on his arm. He opened it and took out a silver-haired Barbie doll with the height of an adult's arm. It was wearing a blue dress with silver lace.
When she saw the doll, Aoqi Cheng's face showed a serious look.
"This is a doll I made by combining the doll manufacturing technology you mentioned, my artificial magic circuit technology, and part of the artificial human technology from the Araya Sect's Ren and Einz Behren Family, and some soul technology that I independently developed. Take a look." Sei Itō introduced.
After that, his mind moved and he instilled magic into the doll in his hand.
The next moment, the doll's empty and dull gemstone eyes lit up. It moved spontaneously as if there was a string. Its expression was like a real person. "Master."
"You made it!?" Aoqi Cheng was shocked when she heard the voice of the doll.
"You can say that, but its intelligence is still very low. It's probably at the level of a newborn baby. It can only execute simple orders." Sei Itō said regretfully.
"That's still very amazing." Aoqi Cheng was impressed. "I didn't expect that you actually made a soul with thinking."
Sei Itō smiled slightly and didn't say anything. He wouldn't tell Aoqi Cheng that he actually had this kind of technology in his hands for a long time. It was just that because it came from another world, he couldn't directly use it in this world. He needed to make some changes, just like the Torahuiska Bontic Utori Gun that had become his combat weapon.
Then Sei Itō walked to Aoqi Cheng's desk and handed over the doll in his hand.
Aoqi Cheng took the doll and carefully observed it. She directly ignored Sei Itō, who was a guest, on the side.
In this regard, Sei Itō didn't mind. He walked to the side and took a disposable water cup from the water dispenser. He filled it with water and leaned on the horizontal frame next to him. He drank the water slowly while watching the messy program on the TV.
After more than an hour, Aoqi Cheng took off the glasses on her face and raised her hand to pinch the bridge of her nose a few times. "Great magic product."
"There are still a lot of problems. At least in terms of realism, this doll isn't as close to 'human' as the ones you personally made." Sei Itō shook his head slightly.
"What do you mean?" Aoqi Cheng raised her eyebrows.
"I want you to help me make a doll model." Sei Itō said.
"My fee isn't low." Aoqi Cheng smiled.
"It's okay. I'm now a nouveau riche. I may not have a lot of other things, but I definitely don't lack money." Sei Itō said in the tone of a nouveau riche.
He really didn't lack money now. Not to mention the dividends brought by the Asakami Society, which became one of the leaders in the handicraft industry by virtue of his reputation as a researcher, the profits he made from Intel, IBM, Microsoft, and other computer hardware manufacturers and software companies in the United States was enough for him to squander endlessly for a few years. In terms of wealth, he was definitely second to none among magicians.
