Crossover Anime: How a Shameless Person Lives

Chapter 31 The Orphanage Residents: A Few Different Personalities

After Hachiman Hikigaya's objective explanation, the old dean finally understood what had happened.

He stood silently in place, his gaze fixed on Matsuzaka Satou's bleeding chest, his eyes filled with sorrow.

"Sigh~" The old dean sighed and remained silent.

After a long while, he muttered to himself, "What have I done? I knew she was different from other children, yet I still gently guided her, leading to all this tragedy."

The old dean took the blame upon himself without hesitation.

Just as Mercury was about to speak, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his gaze fixed on Sugar.

The bloody hole in the chest of the corpse, which should have been cold, was slowly shrinking, and its previously unfocused eyes twitched slightly.

"Huh?" Tomie followed his gaze, also noticing something was wrong, and said with disgust, "How come this dead guy has come back to life?"

Hachiman Hikigaya followed their gaze.

"She moved!"

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn.

On Sugar's chest, the heart that was transformed from Xiao Zuo was beating wildly.

The cells and tissues belonging to the parasite spread along the blood vessels, gradually repairing the damaged body.

It almost merged with the sugar's body.

My left hand also slowly grew back.

Xiao Zuo could feel Sugar's pulse gradually getting stronger, and his breathing becoming more steady.

"Thank goodness, we can survive, but..."

He felt nearly half of his cells filling Sugar's body, in addition to the part of his body that had been destroyed by that monster.

"It seems I'll have to go into hibernation. I can't stay with you forever, Sugar... What exactly is love...?"

Xiao Zuo let out a sigh that was almost human, and then his consciousness slowly drifted into sleep.

……

"Interesting." Looking at the revived Matsuzaka Sugar, Mercury took a step forward, fine salt gathering in his palm. "Parasyte can be used as a heart? You think you're the main character?"

"Enough!" The old headmaster raised his hand to stop Mercury and said in a deep voice, "She is your sister."

"Huh?" Mercury chuckled, more salt dripping from his palm. "Old Dean, are you getting senile? She didn't hold back at all when she pulled out her knife to stab my neck."

This guy is even more cold-blooded than I am.

Although he didn't care about the "family members" in the orphanage, he wouldn't kill them just because of some random things.

Tomie, standing to the side, crossed her arms, a mocking smile playing on her lips, her voice full of disgust: "Ugh, what a nuisance. They were already dead, yet they still stubbornly crawled back. It's disgusting."

Some people want to protect her, but they don't even consider whether they have the ability. They might get stabbed in the back by this "good girl" and have nowhere to turn for help.

The old dean said, "At least she was much less of a worry than the two of you before."

"Forehead……"

Mercury and Tomie exchanged a glance.

Both of them almost forgot that they weren't exactly saints either.

Just then, Matsuzaka Sato on the ground suddenly took a deep breath, and her eyelids began to tremble violently.

As consciousness gradually returned, a warm, throbbing sensation came from my chest. It was no longer the excruciating pain of being pierced, but a strange yet reassuring beat.

"Qiong..." Sugar murmured softly, slowly opening her eyes.

The emptiness and madness that had been fading from her red eyes had disappeared.

I raised my hand to touch my chest, where the wound had healed, leaving only a shallow scar. I could clearly feel the beating of the "heart" beneath the skin.

"Awake?" Mercury raised an eyebrow, the fine salt in his palm still lingering.

From the moment he started, he inexplicably gained control over the fine salt.

He no longer needed to touch it; he could control the fine salt around him.

Just like when I grabbed Matsuzaka Sugar's head!

Sugar's gaze slowly focused, and when it landed on Mercury, her pupils suddenly contracted.

The excruciating pain of being pierced in the heart and the suffocating feeling of impending death instantly flooded my mind.

He abruptly propped himself up, his eyes once again igniting with icy hostility.

But as soon as he moved, he was overwhelmed by the weakness emanating from his body, and he collapsed back down, feeling weak all over.

"What? You want to kill me?"

Sugar gritted her teeth and didn't say a word, just stared intently at Mercury.

At this moment, the old dean stepped forward, blocking Sugar and Mercury, and said in a deep voice, "You brat, give me some face, and Tomie, you shut up too."

"Tsk, fine then." Mercury snorted unhappily and removed the fine salt from his palm.

Tomie, standing to the side, also gave a displeased sneer.

Seeing that the two had quieted down, the old dean looked at Sugar and his tone softened considerably.

"It's alright, it's alright, it's good that you're alive."

Sugar's body trembled slightly, and she lowered her head, her gaze falling on her left palm.

There seemed to still be traces of Xiao Zuo's warmth there, and his whispered words before parting, "What exactly is love?" still seemed to echo in my ears.

"Take good care of yourself. Nothing happened tonight," the old director said helplessly.

Was sugar wrong?

In the old director's eyes, she was just a child who had gone astray.

If you have personality flaws, then correct them!

Just like Tomie.

Although it wasn't changed.

Was Mercury wrong?

No, he was just worried about his own safety.

Sugar made the first move in order to cover up her secret.

Mercury, that brat, isn't some gentle protagonist either; he'll die if he dares to lay a hand on you.

Neither of them is wrong.

It was just that two problem children came together, which triggered a chain reaction.

Sugar didn't refute, but simply nodded calmly.

Then he silently stood up, dragged his weak body, and returned to his room.

She wanted to wash off the bloodstains before dawn.

Otherwise, Qiong would worry...

……

The old dean stood there, watching Sugar enter the room, before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

"Hey, old dean, you don't need to be wary of me, do you?" Mercury said helplessly.

After Sugar stood up, the old dean's eyes were fixed on him.

He was terrified that he might lose control and kill her.

Do you really not trust yourself that much?

The old dean said, "What do you think?"

Mercury: "..."

Ok.

It is well known that he is indeed untrustworthy.

……

Inside the room, Sugar sat on the edge of the bed wrapped in a bath towel, her bare feet on the cold floor.

Looking down at her left hand, her palm was empty; Little Left had completely merged into her body, and not a trace of touch remained.

She slowly raised her hand, facing the moonlight.

Beneath the skin, the unusual heart beat steadily, each beat bringing a warm flow of blood.

It was as if they were breathing for her, thinking for her, and living for her.

Then he looked at Qiong on the bed, tiptoed to lie down beside her, and hugged her tightly in his arms.

I closed my eyes, feeling my sister's body temperature and listening to her even breathing.

She must live.

We must be strong.

We must... protect my younger sister!
