Crossover Anime: The Heroine's Savior in the Other World

On the other side, Kitahara Sousuke stared dumbfounded at the disconnected voice message, still reeling from Hoshizuki Kaede's scolding: "What? You're so grumpy in the morning. I knew I shouldn't have called you."

Chapter 83 Campus Legends

Not only did the wake-up call service fail to earn him a reward from the girl, but he was also severely scolded. Kitahara Sousuke then tried to make a voice call to Kaede, but she hung up on him immediately.

Somewhat confused, Kitahara Sosuke sent Rin another message, only to be met with a barrage of replies like "Go to hell, go to hell, go to hell," clearly indicating that his account had been hijacked.

Helpless, Kitahara Sosuke took off his headphones and could only absentmindedly scroll through Twitter. However, a sudden "click" sound rang out in the noisy carriage, but was quickly drowned out by the chaos.

"Taking photos secretly?"

Kitahara Sousuke frowned and looked in the direction of the sound. Through the figures of several tired-looking office workers, he saw a black-haired boy wearing the same school uniform as himself secretly holding up his phone in his direction. The boy's eyes were clearly not looking at the news or anything else.

Japan is a country that highly values ​​personal privacy, especially in public places like trains, where taking photos without consent is strictly prohibited.

Therefore, Japanese mobile phone camera functions cannot be silenced. Even if the phone is set to silent mode or headphones are worn, the shutter sound will still be heard from the speaker.

Kitahara Sousuke didn't think he had any reason to be secretly filmed. Following the direction of the other party's camera, he looked to his right rear, where a girl with long black hair was looking at the boy not far away with some panic.

Katsura Kotonoha also heard the sound of the camera shutter, and she knew very well that she was the one being secretly photographed. She had lost count of how many days this had been going on. Since the start of the semester, a strange boy who rode the same train as her had been secretly taking pictures of her on the train.

The girl hurriedly straightened her clothes and stood up, trying to hide behind the crowded people to block their view. As a result, she happened to stand next to Kitahara Sousuke with her schoolbag in hand.

Perhaps because they were wearing the same school uniform, and Kitahara Sousuke's height was particularly noticeable in the crowd, Katsura Kotonoha felt a little more at ease standing to his side and behind.

Kitahara Sosuke didn't care. He even turned around to completely block the line of sight between the two, creating a small safe zone for the girl at the edge of the carriage.

However, Makoto Ito on the other side was somewhat unwilling. He had recently heard a campus legend that if you set a picture of the person you like as your screensaver and don't let anyone else find out for a week, you can become a real couple with your sweetheart.

However, this legend has rather strict requirements for the photos. Not only must the photos show the entire upper body and be directly facing the camera, but there is also a rather strict condition that no other unrelated person's body parts can appear in the picture.

Makoto Ito fell in love with a girl he often saw on his way to school by train. After asking around, he learned that the girl's name was Kotonoha Katsura and that she was in the class next to his.

Lacking the courage to confess his feelings to her, Makoto Ito tried to take a picture of Kotonoha Katsura, following the school legend's instructions. However, the train was always crowded, and the picture would inadvertently include other people's arms or shoes in the distance.

Makoto Ito persevered and boarded the train again today. Luckily, he ended up on the same train as Kotonoha Katsura. As usual, he took advantage of the noise in the carriage to press the shutter, but unfortunately, the result wasn't very good this time either; he only managed to capture her profile.

Katsura Kotonoha, who was not far away, seemed to sense something and hurriedly changed her position. But it didn't matter. Just like the past few days, she would change her perspective as well. After observing quietly for a long time, Ito Makoto was certain that the other person was not the type to shout for help on the train.

So Makoto Ito casually walked over to the front of Kotonoha Katsura's current position, and glared angrily at the figure that was blocking his phone camera.

This guy... looks like he's from our school too.

Seeing the school uniform on the other person, Makoto Ito didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he changed his position again. Coincidentally, Sosuke Kitahara, who was blocking Kotonoha Katsura, also moved two steps in place and ended up stuck between the two of them again.

"hateful……"

Makoto Ito cursed under his breath. He took two steps closer, deciding to take the risk. Just then, the train was about to stop at the platform. He planned to get close enough to take a picture and then get off immediately. He could always wait for the next train to school.

Makoto Ito held his phone in one hand, pretending to read a message, watching Katsura Kotonoha's figure in the lens zoom in and in... Great, this position is just right. He felt a surge of joy, but just as he pressed the shutter button with his thumb, the screen suddenly went completely black.

"Crack!"

"Have you had enough fun?"

Kitahara Sousuke pressed one hand on the other person's rear camera and asked somewhat unhappily.

Even a pervert shouldn't act like this. I've changed my position several times to warn him, but this guy still pushes his luck and comes closer.

"You, what do you do?"

Ito Makoto hurriedly pressed the lock screen button on his phone, then grabbed it and took two steps back.

"Police officer, someone is taking pictures here without my permission."

Kitahara Sosuke didn't waste any words with him. He raised his voice and shouted loudly that in Japan, taking photos without consent is a very serious matter. Losing one's job is a minor issue; in serious cases, the consequences are often direct social death.

In a flash, as soon as Kitahara Sousuke finished speaking, the surrounding passengers immediately retreated, forming a vacuum circle centered on the three of them.

"So young, yet so misbehaving?"

Several older women were pointing and whispering as they looked at Makoto Ito.

"I thought this guy was acting a bit strange earlier, constantly squeezing in and out of the carriage."

A young office worker whispered to his friend next to him.

"Stay away, don't drag us into this."

People around whispered and pointed at Kitahara Sousuke and his companions. After a long while, a frantic voice finally came from the far end of the carriage:

"Make way, make way—"

A man in his thirties, wearing a railway worker's uniform, sweating profusely, squeezed through the crowd and walked over to the three people who were being avoided like the plague.

Who is taking pictures secretly?

The male train police officer glanced at Kitahara Sousuke and Katsura Kotonoha hiding behind him, then his suspicious gaze fell on Ito Makoto on the other side.

"I didn't, he's framing me," Makoto Ito retorted, his face flushed. "If you don't believe me, ask that girl."

He knew Katsura Kotonoha's personality; she wouldn't dare say such a thing in public.

"Miss, did he take pictures of you without your consent?"

The train police officer took two steps closer and looked into the girl's eyes. Katsura Kotonoha was somewhat flustered and dared not meet his gaze, nervously lowering her head.

"Miss, it's alright. Please trust us. If this gentleman has taken photos of you without your consent, we will deal with it seriously and will absolutely guarantee your privacy."

The train police officer patiently tried to persuade them.

"I……"

Katsura Kotonoha gripped the hem of her school uniform skirt. She wanted to speak, but the approaching stranger triggered her androphobia again, leaving her mouth open but unable to utter a word due to nervousness.

P.S.: I've been really busy lately. Once I fire that damn boss in a couple of days, I can update properly again.

Chapter 84 Giving Brother Cheng a Pair of Silver Bracelets

“My friend is a little shy and embarrassed to say, but you can just check his phone’s photo album.”

Kitahara Sosuke frowned, finding the girl quite strange; even at a time like this, she didn't dare to point out the other person.

"But... sir, we don't have that right. If we find no evidence of the secret filming on this gentleman's phone, we will receive a complaint."

The staff member said somewhat awkwardly.

Although whistleblowing is not a crime, as a staff member of the rail department, he had to act according to the rules. If the person involved did not come forward to identify them, it would be difficult for them to check the personal belongings of innocent passengers.

"This person is lying. Maybe he's the one who took the photos secretly. He's the one crying 'stop thief!'"

Seeing that the situation was changing, Makoto Ito immediately used his brains to point to Sosuke Kitahara.

"This one……"

The staff looked at the two people pointing fingers at each other with a bit of a headache. They decided to just send them both to the police station, but if they made a mistake and got a complaint, they would be in trouble again.

"As long as there's evidence, right?"

Kitahara Sousuke glanced at the staff member who was caught in a dilemma.

"Yes...but you..."

Before the staff member could finish speaking, Kitahara Sousuke instantly appeared in front of Ito Makoto, grabbed his wrist, and with a slight twist of his fingers, took Ito Makoto's phone amidst the latter's cry of pain.

"This is robbery!"

Makoto Ito clutched his wrist and glared at the other man. He wasn't worried about his phone, since the other man couldn't possibly know his password for no reason. But this behavior gave him another excuse to pin a charge on him.

"I'll stir up the water, and then take the opportunity to steal the phone and run away," Makoto Ito thought to himself, before his expression immediately changed.

Kitahara Sousuke completely ignored Ito Makoto. He tapped the screen a few times, then swiped it to unlock it. He easily found the local photo album and handed the phone to a staff member.

"you you……"

Makoto Ito pointed at the other person, his heart filled with horror, but his face gradually turned pale.

"Excuse me, sir, you may need to come with us in a little while."

The staff member immediately noticed the densely packed photos of the girl in the album. There was no need to check them; he could remember such a beautiful girl as Katsura Kotonoha at a glance. Judging from the time, the first two photos were even saved just now.

"Thank you for your help, sir."

The male staff member bowed to Kitahara Sousuke. Although the man's behavior was against the rules, he didn't want to pursue it further at this point. Finally, he looked at Katsura Kotonoha, who was hiding behind Kitahara Sousuke:

"Miss, would you like to come with us? We will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation."

"I……"

Katsura Kotonoha raised her head, glanced at the staff, and then lowered her head like a frightened little rabbit.

“Never mind,” Kitahara Sosuke waved his hand. “You guys just need to make sure he deletes all the photos. My friend has other things to do.”

After confirming Katsura Kotonoha's attitude, and seeing that the girl had no objections, he nodded, took the communicator hanging on his waist, said a few words, and then got off at this station with a desperate Ito Makoto.

"It's alright, he's already been taken away."

Kitahara Sosuke tried to comfort the girl, but upon hearing his voice, she not only showed no gratitude but also took a step back in fear. This froze the smile Kitahara Sosuke had just managed to muster.

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

The girl lowered her head, her two fingers tightly twisting the hem of her clothes, and managed to squeeze out a barely audible sound.

"You seem afraid of me?"

Kitahara Sosuke bent down, puzzled, wanting to see the girl's face, but she took two steps back in alarm, pressed herself against the carriage window, and apologized in a voice that was almost crying:

"No, no... I'm sorry..."

Kitahara Sosuke raised an eyebrow. It was really strange. A barely perceptible blue light flashed in his eyes, revealing the girl's identification information.
