In a crossover anime, the only way to become stronger is by marrying a wife.

"Does anyone not care about their image?" Hayama Hayato said.

From his perspective, personal image is very important; otherwise, Hayama Hayato wouldn't always be so polite and smiling, thus becoming the boy most admired and envied by all the girls.

"So, you think I'm self-destructing, sacrificing my image to get a solution?"

Tsukikawa Shu laughed and said calmly:

"I simply didn't take these people seriously."

The strong never need the approval of the weak.

I have never been the kind of person who sacrifices himself for the greater good like Teacher Da.

"...Don't you respect others?"

Hayato Hayama was completely taken aback by Tsukikawa Shuu's words and for a moment even doubted that he had misheard.

Even Yukino Yukinoshita and Yui Yuigahama never expected this.

Although Tsukikawa Shuu was always confident, or rather arrogant, no one expected just how arrogant he was.

"Simply disregarding others..."

Yukino Yukinoshita also pondered these words.

This statement encompasses more than just the student council members at Seaside Comprehensive High School.

If you don't respect the people at Seaside Comprehensive High School, then you won't respect anyone else, nor will you respect real-world interpersonal relationships.

To be honest, although she herself thought she was quite narcissistic, when it came to actually doing things, she still didn't have the courage to be as arrogant as Tsukikawa Shu.

By forcing Tsukikawa-kun into the Service Club, are we trying to stop Yukino Yukinoshita, or are we stopping him...?

Yui Yuigahama looked at Hiiragi Tsukikawa, then at Yukino Yukinoshita, and suddenly felt immense pressure.

Yukino Yukinoshita is just very sharp-tongued and doesn't like people who listen to group constraints. When faced with someone who opposes her, she will at least explain her reasons, and whether the other person listens or not is none of her business.

But Tsukikawa Shu... if things continue at this pace, he might turn around and beat all those who oppose him to a pulp!

Chapter 87 Everyone had to believe that Pochi-chan had a boyfriend.

Meeting Oreki Kaori and Nakamachi Chika was just a small episode in Tsukikawa Hiiragi's leisure time.

Following the navigation, Tsukikawa Shu walked slowly.

A staircase leading downwards appeared before us, ending at the small shop where the band had finished their performance.

Tsukikawa Shuu looked at the word "STARRY" hanging at the entrance of the small shop, surrounded by neon lights, and pushed the door open to go inside.

Although the store is small, it is quite lively inside. The audience is mostly young people, and the waves of cheers and support are getting louder and louder.

The bands performing in STARRY aren't just End of the Band; there are many other young bands, some more popular than others.

However, it has been more than two years since the band was formed, and they should have gained a considerable following by now.

Tsukikawa Shuu wasn't interested in the other bands, so he went to sit down at the counter.

"A glass of orange juice."

Tsukikawa Shuu said to the person behind the counter.

When the band finished performing, the shop owner, Ijichi Seika, took over the role of waiter.

She glanced at Tsukikawa Shu's school uniform, then paused, and immediately realized what was happening.

"Could this be Ichiri's boyfriend?"

Ijichi Hoshika was somewhat surprised.

I had heard before that Goto Ichiri had found a boyfriend and that he would be coming to see the show today, but no one knows what he looks like.

The reason for the surprise was not anything else, but the fact that the boy in front of her was far more handsome than anyone she had ever seen who could be called a handsome man.

Just sitting there, you can't help but want to approach and say hello.

However, he also possesses a cold and aloof demeanor that keeps strangers at bay, making him someone to admire from afar but not to be trifled with.

Here, your orange juice.

Ijichi Seika pushed the glass of chilled orange juice toward Tsukikawa Shuu.

"Thank you." Tsukikawa Shuu took the cup.

"Are you here to watch the show?" Ijichi Seika asked with a smile as she leaned over the counter.

“Yes,” Tsukikawa Shuu said.

Which band?

"End the band."

"You really are Yili's boyfriend?!"

Ijichi Hoshika was startled, and her voice rose considerably.

"Mm." Tsukikawa Shu smiled. "Thank you for taking care of Ichiri."

"When I first heard that Yili had a boyfriend, I didn't believe it."

Ichi Hoshika sighed deeply.

Then, she quietly poured herself a glass of ice-cold beer.

Even Goto Ichiri has a boyfriend, while I'm getting on in years and still single.

Moreover, how did Goto Ichiri, who is so socially awkward, manage to get such a handsome boy?

Upon seeing the serene yet aloof aura emanating from Tsukikawa Shuu, Iji Tomoka basically ruled out the possibility that Goto Ichiri had paid someone to plant her; someone with that kind of temperament would never accept such a deal.

Besides, you can't find a shill this good-looking even if you pay money.

At the same time, Goto Ichiri didn't have that much money to hire people, as she usually had to work part-time for him.

“We can rest assured now that Ichiri has found a boyfriend,” Ichiriko said with a smile.

"It's clear that you've taken good care of her," Tsukikawa Shu said with a smile.

"No, no, I'll definitely have to ask you, her boyfriend, to take care of her in the future," Ichiji Hoshika said with a smile.

At this moment, the band on stage had finished their performance and were bowing to the audience to express their gratitude, which was met with enthusiastic applause and screams.

Backstage, the other three members of the band were surrounding Goto Ichiri.

"Hey, Pochi-chan, has your boyfriend arrived yet? Let me see him quickly."

Yamada Ryo still had that same disdainful expression on his face, and kept getting closer to Goto Ichiri.

"Seriously! Pochi-chan, stop hiding it, just tell us which one it is!" Kita Ikuyo said, looking equally curious.

"Is this another prank?" Ichiji Nijika asked, hands on her hips.

"Well. He really is here. It's absolutely true~"

Goto Ichiri, on the other hand, had an inscrutable look on his face. He stood in the middle of the three people with his hands on his hips, looking up at them with an arrogant air.

No, it's more like finally getting our heads held high!

As for the others, since they have never been in a relationship, they have always been curious and somewhat envious about the concept of a boyfriend.

Especially when she heard that Goto Ichiri had a boyfriend, she became even more curious and wanted to gossip even if she didn't want to.

When Goto Ichiri arrived backstage, she kept craning her neck to look at the audience below through the gaps between the stages.

I would glance at it every two minutes or so to see if Tsukikawa Shu had arrived yet.

Every now and then, he would chuckle to himself as he drifted into his fantasies.

His anxious yet smug expression was naturally noticed by others.

After seeing Tsukikawa Shuu enter, Goto Ichiri became even more arrogant, and everyone could guess what was going on with his smug look.

As for who her boyfriend is, it's actually quite easy to guess.

Even though Goto Ichiri tried her best to control herself from looking at Tsukikawa Shuu, she still couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.

As for who was being watched, Goto Ichiri didn't even need to say it herself; everyone who followed her gaze knew perfectly well.

What happened next shocked the three girls.

"Is that really Pochi's boyfriend?" Kita Ikuyo's face was filled with undisguised shock. "Isn't he a bit too handsome?"

"It's obvious that Boqi-chan is very rich, able to afford such a shill."

Yamada Ryo, on the other hand, was expressionless as he calculated his own plans, thinking, "I can get a few more free meals from her in the future!"

"Stop, put away your thoughts!" Ichiji Niji Natsu shattered Yamada Ryo's fantasy.

"I don't think this is a shill. How much money would it cost to hire a shill like this?" Ichiji Nijika analyzed.

The three of them whispered among themselves.

As for Boqi, she was still secretly glancing at her boyfriend and grinning foolishly.

Now the other members of the band have no choice but to believe it.

—The performance begins.
