Crossover anime/manga, can you be my immortal companion for life?

Some people who pretend to be social butterflies but are actually socially awkward will instinctively mutter in a way that is meant to please others, even in social situations.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

As they were talking, the person approached.

Xiangzi originally intended to pretend he hadn't seen it, but he didn't expect his perfect disguise to be seen through so quickly.

The heaviness in my heart deepened, and I felt that it couldn't at least end in a dignified manner.

However, after the initial shock came a wave of anxiety. This was no safe place; it was the hunting grounds of the undead and the habitat of monsters. Her main purpose in saying those things was to make them give up and never have any further contact with her. But this persistent, disheveled female ghost still appeared before her, and at just the right time.

"Are you following me? Why are you here? Get out of here!"

In his anxiety, Xiangzi's words were somewhat inappropriate.

The words, tinged with a hint of reprimand, startled Su Shi, who was wearing a sweet smile on her face.

Nagasaki Motoyo clenched her fists. There wasn't even a year of sunk costs yet; all she wanted was an answer.

"Xiao Xiang... what's wrong? I... shouldn't I have come? I... I didn't follow you, I just happened to see you. I apologize."

But I want to ask Xiao Xiang, did you form a new band? And Xiao Xiang dropped out of school, is it our fault?

Nagasaki Motoyo leaned forward, as if she wanted to have a proper talk, and raised her hands.

What she really wanted to ask was, why form other bands? Wasn't CRYCHIC the only option? Could anyone else be included?

Why did you leave without saying goodbye and then say those things?

However, Su Shi, who has a people-pleasing personality, turns all the grievances and questions she keeps inside into her own words as if they were all her fault.

Xiangzi knew that Nagasaki Motoyo was not wrong; the problem lay with him.

But I couldn't explain it to her clearly.

Perhaps in Nagasaki Motoyo's eyes, this was just an old friend meeting in the park at night, but she wanted Nagasaki Motoyo to leave this place as soon as possible.

Two people who don't want to hurt each other are hurting each other.

Kerry took out a bottle of yogurt, opened the straw and started drinking, watching the lively scene unfold.

Two good-natured women, one of whom is my teammate, and now she's really in trouble!

"It has nothing to do with you; it's my own problem."

Xiangzi first responded to Su Shi's words.

However, he slapped away Su Shi's hand that was grabbing at him.

"Don't follow me rudely anymore. Leave now. This is my final warning."

Xiangzi was so anxious that she wanted to pack Su Shi up and throw her out, but a last bit of affection made her restrain herself and try to use words to drive her away.

Moreover, what happened before had left her somewhat frightened. If Nagasaki Motoyo continued to follow her, it would be too dangerous! She had to teach her here that she shouldn't cause trouble for no reason, and more importantly, make her give up on the idea.

When her hand was slapped away and she heard these words, Su Shi's expression turned somewhat ugly, and she could hardly maintain her smile. Her excited emotions made her cheeks flush red, and her breathing gradually became rapid.

"That's not it! I just want to talk to Xiao Xiang! Aren't we in the same boat? Xiao Xiang told me that, right?"

Xiao Xiang, do you still remember the days when we, CRYCHIC, shone brightly together on stage? But... why did those wonderful times end like this?!

Su Shi, who is quite good at interpersonal relationships, thinks that Xiangzi is acting fiercely because he feels embarrassed by her question in front of his new friends, but her possessiveness is also getting the better of her.

Seeing Xiangzi forming a band with others was not news that she could easily accept.

Xiao Xiang, who rescued her from loneliness, played music and laughed with others! That kind of thing, oh my!

So she started off like a child seeing her friend playing with someone else, mentioning that they used to be in a band, and then changed the subject.

"Could we...could we talk over there?"

Xiangzi was already anxious; what he really wanted most was for her to get out of here, but she was still crying.

However, leaving here first is not out of the question; I happen to have some things I need to explain to her.

Because at this point, someone hasn't yet used their extraordinary wisdom to pull off some kind of resurrection scheme or form a new band.

Xiangzi didn't misunderstand her, so he managed to keep his temper in check. However, even though he wasn't angry inside, he still had to put on a disgusted expression.

"Sorry, I need to take care of something first, I'll be right back."

Xiangzi strode quickly toward the depths of the park, far from the seaside.

"Xiao Xiang, wait for me."

Ms. Soyo glanced at Kerry, who was holding a yogurt and looking on with amusement, and then somewhat lost her composure as she jogged after him.

When they reached a bench under a streetlamp, Xiangzi felt that they were far enough from the sea and prepared to stop, but his nose twitched slightly.

A fragrant aroma wafted from not far away.

Xiangzi suddenly turned his head. There was an iron net there. If he remembered correctly from the daytime reconnaissance, that should be the waterbird nature reserve in this area.

It turns out that the park was not peaceful at night; in fact, it had become lively in places unknown to the public.

Xiangzi immediately turned his head and shouted.

"do not come!"

"Ugh?!"

Nagasaki Motoyo, who had been jogging, was taken aback, completely bewildered by Shoko's outburst.

Xiangzi glanced left and right to determine the enemy's location, then quickly relayed the information in his mind.

[Toyokawa Shoko: Enemy near the northwest side of the park! Requesting backup!]

Then she suddenly turned around.

Before Su Shi could figure out what was going on, she saw Toyokawa Shoko turn her head and glare at her fiercely.

Then she caught up with him at a speed she could never have imagined.

what happened?

Su Shi only felt a blur before her eyes, and then she felt her legs lift off the ground.

When she came to her senses, she realized that her frail little Xiang had actually carried her, who was taller than her, on her shoulders.

"Wait! Xiao Xiang! My phone!"

Su Shi let out a blank shout, and her phone fell to the ground.

But the next moment she was speechless.

She saw a bunch of greenish-black things climb up the fence of the protected area, causing the wire mesh to shake.

171

Chapter 171 Let's see what everyone wants to see.

Then...what is that?

Su Shi stared wide-eyed at the things climbing onto the net.

They resembled people, yet were not; they appeared to be naked, and...

Those things climbed out of the wire mesh, but then quickly fell from the top of the mesh, making eerie sounds on the ground.

It sounded like a bunch of water-soaked sponges falling to the ground.

When they stood up in a daze and walked awkwardly to the streetlights, their full appearance came into Su Shi's view.

Distorted, corrupt.

They had human forms, but were incomplete. Their bloated corpses were known as "giant statues" in the neighboring country, and now, these giant statues walked before Su Shi.

Look, those fingernails connected to rotting flesh, those moldy skulls with drooping scalps and flesh, those soft, rotten eyeballs hanging from their sockets with only the eyeballs remaining, and those bloated chunks of flesh that look like they could squeeze water out of them, are still moving forward.

The zombies of Haitian Voodoo—no, something far uglier and more blasphemous—are faithful servants of evil gods, retinues of those in power, slaves who worship unspeakable beings.

Upon witnessing this, Nagasaki Motoyo felt her reason was greatly impacted, closed her eyes tightly, and let out a scream.

"Ah ah!"

Xiangzi looked conflicted. She had known there was something strange about the beach, which was why she had pulled Su Shi away from it. She just hadn't expected that there was something strange about this place.

Without even turning back for a second, Xiangzi was focused on getting Su Shi away first.

However, the other party did not come from one place, but surrounded them from all directions. Xiangzi, who had only seen them once during the day, was somewhat lost in the night illuminated only by streetlights.

"Shh!"

A whooshing sound came from behind. Xiangzi instinctively tried to dodge, but at the same time, he straightened his shoulders and lifted Soyo in front of him, holding her in a princess carry.

"Ahem?!"

The sudden feeling of weightlessness brought Su Shi, whose head felt as if it had been hit by a hammer, back to her senses.

However, what followed was a horrifying scene.

"hiss……"

Xiangzi cried out in pain and swayed unsteadily. If Hinamizawa hadn't put his willpower to the test earlier, he would have definitely fallen down.

Xiangzi was forced to kneel down and put Nagasaki Motoyo down, a trace of pain flashing in his eyes.

However, this pain did not come from the body, but from the mind.

The thing she least wanted to happen still happened: her friends, who should have been living happily and carefree under the sun, were still dragged into this mess.

She looked down and saw that her calf had been scratched by a strange, sharp, thorn-like object.

"Run! Run! You idiot!"

Hearing Xiangzi's urgent calls, Su Shi's legs went weak, and she managed to stand up straight. She took two steps back, but then stopped.

She couldn't comprehend this absurd nightmare at all.

why?

Wasn't it just that he saw an old friend wanting her to come back and form a band to recapture their past happy times?

Why did those disgusting things suddenly appear?

And Xiao Xiang...
