Birthday...? It's my birthday...

Matou Shinji looked at the gift box in his hand, feeling a little strange, what day is today?

After school in the afternoon, he saw the package that Matou Kariya mailed. Just when Matou Shinji wondered what happened to his uncle, the phone rang, and it was Matou Kariya who called:

"Happy birthday! I wish Shen Er turned 7 years old, one step closer to the adults, I have already received my gift, open it and take a look. The gift inside was purchased in the United States, and I selected the scenic spot there for several hours. Woolen cloth."

Hearing Matou Kariya's words, Shinji froze in place, and said in disbelief,

"...Birthday?"

"Haha...you kid, did you forget your birthday, hahaha..."

"...It seems so."

"Really? He clearly talks and acts like an adult, but he forgets about such an important matter. It sounds like a big contrast. It's not like you! Shinji."

"Um... how is uncle recently?"

Matou Shinji's voice seemed to be trembling, maybe it was caused by poor signal? Matou Kariya thought of this, then smiled and said to the microphone:

"Me? I'm being chased by editors recently because of my lack of inspiration. But I can't do anything about it, so I went out to the United States to film scenes, and I'm going to visit the scenic spots here."

When Matou Kariya was talking, he suddenly saw a familiar back, his face changed instantly, and he said into the microphone:

"Oops! I think I saw the editor, how did she get here? Big trouble! I'm going to hang up. Well, happy birthday to you, and we'll talk later!"

Then Matou Kariya quickly hung up the phone, trying to use the shelter of the phone booth to slowly escape the sight of his editor...

"Stop! Matou-sensei!"

It's a pity... There are eight out of ten unsatisfactory things in the world. The editor just turned his head and saw Matou Kariya who wanted to escape. He chased after him aggressively, and rushed over with a turbulent aura like a demon.

On the other hand, Matou Kariya ran away, chasing one by one, and started chasing on the foreign streets.

I can only wish Matou Kariya good luck here.

"Beep...beep..."

Hearing the voice coming from the phone, Matou Shinji froze for a while, then put the microphone back in its original position.

He looked at the gift box at hand and opened it with a little hesitation. Inside was a beautiful piece of quartz, and it was polished and polished, so it was very crystal clear.

Matou Kariya is not well-off, and his income is extremely unstable. He does not have a regular job, and only makes a living by writing manuscripts. To be able to buy such a gift and send it here can already prove his intentions.

At this time, Matou Shinji's eyes were slightly red, and he took out the quartz very preciously and put it in a wooden box.

This was the first birthday gift he received in his life. In the past, he was directly ignored at home, but no one would celebrate his birthday, let alone a birthday gift.

The reason why Matou Shinji worked so hard to express himself was to make his father and grandfather value him. Unfortunately, no matter what he did, it was useless. No matter how hard he tried and what kind of achievements he made, he was always a waste in their eyes. Taste.

A waste product without magic qualifications.

However, for a nephew who has never met since he was born and threatened him as soon as he met, he still remembers that person's birthday, obviously he has already forgotten it...

Really... a nasty good man!

Matou Shinji raised his head hard to keep his tears from coming out. After holding on for a while, the strong feeling of wanting to cry gradually disappeared.

Matou Sakura walked in from the door, and when she saw Matou Shinji's appearance, she asked in confusion, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

"Aha, it's just smoke and dust entering my eyes, it's nothing."

Waving his hand, Matou Shinji said with a smile, it was the ruddy eyes and the relaxed smile on his face that looked weird.

"birthday present?"

Matou Sakura saw the opened gift box on the table, and also saw the opened quartz stone package with the logo pattern of the birthday present on it, she quickly responded: "Is today Shinji's birthday?"

"Yes, this is a gift from Uncle Kariya. If it weren't for this, I'm afraid I wouldn't even remember that today is my birthday."

Matou Shinji said with a smile, rubbed Matou Sakura's head at the same time, then took the wooden box containing the quartz and walked towards his room. This gift meant a lot to him.

behind him.

Matou Sakura touched the gift box and wrapping paper, with a hint of remorse in her eyes. Today is Shinji's birthday, but she doesn't know that her sister is really bad!

But...I know Shinji's birthday today, so I won't miss it again in the future, Matou Sakura put the torn package into the trash can, and then goes to do her homework, and there is a magic class to follow.

...

As the days passed, the date of the Holy Grail War gradually approached, and the peaceful and stable atmosphere of Fuyuki City gradually became serious.

In the blink of an eye, it has been almost a year since Matou Zika's death.

Shinji also started his own actions.

Ah, don't get me wrong, he's just going to the countryside for a little shelter during the Holy Grail War.

Does Matou Shinji know how intense this Fourth Holy Grail War is, is he staying here as a person who is not ready to participate, or is he one of the three Holy Grail Royal Family, is he worried about how long he will live?

Two weeks before the Holy Grail War, Matou Shinji took a month off from school, not only for himself, but also for Matou Sakura.

Then the defensive barrier of Matou Mansion was opened, and the servants were given a month of paid leave. By the way, I reminded them that it is best not to stay in Fuyuki City this month. Tong Shinji just needs to have a clear conscience.

You are not a messenger of justice!

Three people, one tall and two short, were walking on the streets of Fuyuki City. Mousse wore a normal top and trousers, and followed behind Sakura and Shinji with a large suitcase.

After several months of teaching by the head maid, Mousse's mind has grown a lot now, and she can even complete many things independently, and she also has a preliminary understanding of the world. Except for some simplicity, she is no different from ordinary people. .

"Shinji, do we have to leave?"

Matou Sakura asked softly, she was used to school life, and more used to seeing Tohsaka Rin often, and she suddenly wanted to leave Fuyuki City, which made her instinctively resist.

But Matou Sakura was a very well-behaved girl, she honestly organized her things, followed Matou Shinji to leave the Matou house, and only now did she ask the reason for Matou Shinji.

"yes."

Of course, Matou Shinji will not hide anything from Sakura, so I will give her a brief introduction to the concept of the Holy Grail War, and the Matou family, one of the three royal families, is likely to be attacked by some masters. For a period of time, it is better to stay away from the troublesome whirlpool of Fuyuki City as soon as possible.
