Chapter 27: Chapter 27
[In an atmosphere filled with harmony and friendship, you and Elysia who left the suburbs were sent back to the town by a team composed of border guards and unknown troops]
[At 3 p.m. of the same day, the municipal building of Vostok-51 officially issued an emergency notice to all residents, and the town immediately entered a seven-day state of total martial law. A curfew is imposed from one o'clock to six o'clock the next day]
[As a small town located on the national border, Vostok-51 has experienced a state of martial law multiple times, so the sudden martial law did not cause much disturbance in the town]
At noon in the middle of the night, everything is silent.
Just as Emiya Shirou was about to start his night exercise in the living room on the first floor as usual, there was a sudden sound of soft footsteps coming from the direction of the stairs.
"What's the matter? It's very late now, aren't you going to sleep?" Emiya Shirou turned his head and looked at the little figure running down from the second floor with a peaceful gaze.
Elysia, who was wearing light pajamas, was barefoot. For some reason, after seeing Shirou Emiya's gaze, her pink eyes suddenly began to dodge.
As if feeling guilty about something.
Seeing Elysia's appearance, Emiya Shirou did not continue to speak but watched her patiently and calmly.
He knew Elysia very well. Although the child occasionally showed a mischievous side, in most cases, she had always been a very kind and sincere person.
Elysia is very smart and very good at doing things properly. If she realizes that she has done something wrong, she will immediately reflect on her behavior and sincerely apologize for her behavior. So even when she was mischievous, Elysia never really made Emiya Shirou angry.
She showed this fearful and guilty look in her eyes, Emiya Shirou only saw it when he encountered a convoy during the day.
"That... that..." Elysia bit her lower lip, then raised her head as if she had made up her mind, and stared at Emiya Shiro with a somewhat nervous expression, "I... I have some I want to talk to 'Mom' about."
Emiya Shiro pondered for a moment: "Is...is it something about those people we met during the day?"
Elysia was taken aback, blinking her eyes, she was still full of nervousness. Her pupils were filled with confused emotions: "What... what?"
Did he already realize it...
Seeing Elysia's dazed look, Emiya Shirou murmured in the depths of his heart while softly shaking his head slightly: "It's nothing, just take it as my mistake."
Elysia was very wrong.
For Emiya Shirou, who has taken care of Elysia's arrival for seven years, it is not difficult to notice this.
Ever since she was summoned to this world by the "Mother Simulator" and came to the side of the newly born baby, this pink little girl has always been surrounded by an extremely mysterious atmosphere.
Who are her parents?
Why did she appear in the suburban forest?
Why is her growth process completely inconsistent with the knowledge written in the "Encyclopedia of Newborn Baby Care"? And why are you so smart?
Although Emiya Shiro can attribute the last two questions to the inherent individual differences between babies, but for the first two questions, Emiya Shirou has no way to answer them.
Even the relevant clues were surrounded by a thick fog.
The nearest town to the forest is Vostok-51. If nothing unexpected happens, Elysia should be a child abandoned in the forest by a town resident.
However, after these seven years of life, Shirou Emiya has already recognized the residents of this small town as familiar faces, but he has never found anyone who is suspected to be Elysia's parents.
This is so strange.
Although it is located in a border area, the living standards of the residents in the town and the development speed of the town itself are actually quite impressive because it is in a time of peace and the civilization level and productivity of the current era are in the golden age of rapid evolution.
In the process of gradually integrating into this town, Emiya Shirou has never seen anyone whose life is so desolate that he can't even support a child.
Coupled with the improvement of the social welfare system, even if it is really impossible to raise a child, parents can still send the child to the orphanage in the town, instead of abandoning them in the forest.
If it wasn't for Emiya Shirou's arrival and this child hadn't been discovered by other residents of the town...
Just thinking about it, Emiya Shirou would feel a chill all over his body.
But what if we think about it from another angle?
—Suppose, this Elysia did not have the so-called "parents" in the first place but appeared in that forest out of thin air?
Emiya Shirou himself doesn't care about this. After all, when it comes to the way of appearance, no matter how abnormal Elysia is, she must be inferior to him, who is not even a human being.
But as Elysia's family member, he had to consider whether Elysia's "abnormality" would have a negative impression on her normal life.
Although there is no evidence that those soldiers blocked the town because of Elysia's affairs, after all, no matter what Emiya Shirou thinks, Elysia is against the so-called "danger" that Himeko said, but if it is true that they blocked the town for Elysia, Emiya Shirou should, of course, be prepared for their actions.
If you encounter the worst situation, if you meet the "captain" directly...
"What do you want to say to me?" Emiya Shirou stared seriously into Elysia's eyes, speaking in a soothing and gentle tone, "It doesn't matter, let's continue, since we are family members, if we encounter any difficulties, we should share them with each other."
"Oh..." Elysia nodded, probably because of Emiya Shirou's encouragement, her courage gradually grew, "That is to say, that, I...can I leave here?"
Emiya Shirou frowned slightly: "Do you want to leave the house?"
"Hmm..." Elysia nodded sullenly.
