"Progress is needed in this town. And, unfortunately, certain people are in the way of said progress."
"And let me guess. You're supposed to lead this progress. Doesn't explain why I'm here, though-"
There was the sound of squelching blood.
"You are but a sacrifice, sadly needed to remove the obstacles."
There was a thud, and a bystander was treated to a horrific sight:
Spattered all over with blood, one Shinji Matou was hunched over a body, clutching a crimson spear.

Fuyuki City Detention Center
"Emiya! You've gotta help me!"
When Sakura had called him at about six about Shinji being in trouble, Shirou Emiya wasn't entirely sure what to expect. The revelation that he'd been hauled down to the Detention Center as opposed to the normal police cells was more worrying, and he'd headed down there as soon as visiting hours had started.
"Calm down, Shinji. Tell me what happened."
"I'VE BEEN FRAMED FOR MURDER!"
"...Yes, and yelling about it helps noone. Just tell me what happened."
[]What questions will you ask Shinji? (Maximum of three.)
After Shinji finished telling Shirou what had happened, he sighed.
"I'm guessing you're going to need a defence attorney?"
"Well, if you know any that can get to me in five hours, be my guest."
Shirou stood up.
"I'll see who I can find-Wait, five hours?!"
Shinji gave a bitter smile. "Apparently, my trial's been fastracked. Hence why I got Sakura to get you. You're an attorney, aren't you?"
"Well, yes, but I only passed the bar a month ago."
"Do you see any other attorneys here who can help me?"
