Crossover Anime: How a Shameless Person Lives

"The One-Eyed Owl".

"I don't understand what you're saying."

A coffee shop in Hokkaido.

After getting Yoshimura Etto's contact information from the old dean, Mercury arranged for him to come here.

His opening remarks were a critical hit.

"They're from an orphanage, after all. Is there really no trust in them?"

"Trust you, a liar?" Yoshimura Eto chuckled, a hint of mockery in his voice.

"You talk as if you know me so well."

"Maybe I really do know you."

She put down her coffee spoon and placed her hands, folded, on the table.

"We haven't met more than a few times, have we?"

Mercury was puzzled.

Aside from the time he met Yoshimura Eto at the orphanage, the only other time he'd seen her was at an autograph session.

What's with this act of acting like an old acquaintance?

Aite's gaze suddenly darkened, her tone tinged with a hint of probing: "You haven't forgotten, have you?"

"Forgot what?" Mercury asked, puzzled.

Did he have some kind of deal with her?

Have I been drinking too much fake alcohol lately?

"We lived together in an orphanage when we were kids."

"???"

After he finished speaking, the coffee shop fell into a brief silence.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

After a brief silence, Mercury pointed at Yoshimura Eto and burst into laughter.

"Did we live together in an orphanage when we were little?"

Yoshimura Eto wasn't angry; she just smiled at him.

Like Mercury, she had left the orphanage long ago.

However, unlike others, she would occasionally return to the orphanage to visit and stay for a while.

Mercury only contacted the old dean.

Every time I go back, I end up causing trouble.

Aside from when they were children, the two had basically never met.

Not to mention feelings.

However, Mercury's personality is indeed quite impressive.

"How old are you."

After laughing for a while, Mercury asked a question.

"18, what's wrong?"

"Hmm, 18, the same age as me. Even if we knew each other when we were kids, 12 years have passed. Why do you think I still remember you, Yoshimura Eto?"

Faced with these almost heartless words, Yoshimura Ete ran her fingertips along the rim of her coffee cup, her smile unchanged, but with a hint of intriguing meaning: "I told you last time, call me Takatsuki Izumi."

"Alright, alright, Takatsuki Sen, that's enough. I'm not here to talk to you about childhood." Mercury waved his hand dismissively.

Although he was reincarnated into this world, how could he possibly remember things from his childhood?

At that time, he didn't care about these so-called "friends".

The fact that the old dean was still alive provided them with another connection.

"That's why you're so annoying," Yoshimura Eto remarked. "So, what did you want to see me about?"

This is a tacit admission of the One-Eyed Owl's identity.

Who would have thought that the one-eyed owl was actually this genius young female writer?

Mercury tapped the table with his fingertips and said with a grin, "I saw on the news that your Aogiri Tree has caused quite a stir in Hokkaido. What's your next target? Can you include me in the list?"

Although the news didn't say what the bronze tree did, you can guess.

The current Bronze Tree is not the complete version from its later stages.

Furthermore, Yoshimura Eto's sudden revelation of the existence of the Parasite drew attention to it.

By combining the plot with the author's identity as Takatsuki Sen, it's easy to guess Aogiri Tree's purpose.

All they do is expand and hire people.

However, the process will certainly not be so benevolent.

Now that he understands the system's operating rules, how could he not want to get involved?

Quantitative change leads to qualitative change.

If it weren't for the old dean being there, killing Yoshimura Eto would definitely have been the first choice.

"Oh dear, that's a dangerous statement. This is not child's play."

Yoshimura Ete was still smiling, but the next second, her smile froze.

Suddenly, the cup Mercury was holding turned into fine salt, which then solidified into a small knife, which he held in his hand.

"In this world, you ghouls are nothing more than little lolis."

Yoshimura Aite remained silent.

She had heard rumors about strange and unusual things in the world.

I never imagined I would see it with my own eyes one day.

I thought we could only be sure when we took action next time.

"There will be a major operation in three days. I will let you know then."

Mercury perfectly played along, feigning shock. "Wow, who are you attacking?"

"This needs to be kept secret for now," Yoshimura Eto smiled.

After saying that, he left.

Mercury looked at the small knife made of salt in his hand, gave it a slight shake, and the blade turned into fine salt that slipped from his fingers and sprinkled onto the table.

Instead of leaving, he ordered another coffee.

"I think I forgot to tell Kasumigaoka Utaha about this. Oh well, I've already got the money."

Promises and such.

He's too lazy to follow the rules.

……

"Is everything ready?"

After leaving the coffee shop, Yoshimura Eto arrived at a toy factory in Hokkaido.

This is one of the ghoul properties of the ghoul restaurant.

After that ghoul was forced to join Aogiri Tree, this business also became Aogiri Tree's stronghold.

The toy factory was now filled with ghouls. Each ghoul held a submachine gun.

There were even quite a few rocket launchers.

Several anti-tank rifles were also mixed in.

This level of firepower is enough to wage a small war.

"Weapon inspection complete." Tatara held an anti-tank rifle in one hand. "The firepower here is enough to tear apart the Heshu family's defenses, plus the anti-tank rifle generously sponsored by that arms queen, enough to sustain us in a battle."

Aite's fingertips traced the barrel of the gun beside her, the cold metallic touch making her smile even more playful.

"Those old foxes from the Washuu family are probably still laughing at us, calling us beasts who can only tear things apart with their kagune, right?"

She suddenly raised her voice, and her one eye flashed a scarlet light in the dim factory lights.

"Continue selling assets and buying stronger weapons from that arms queen. After the battle, we need sufficient deterrence."

Three days later, the target: the underground laboratory of the Kyoto branch of the Washuu family.

Aite's voice turned cold.

There, the Xiu family hides extremely important experiments.

It has even attracted the attention of those at higher levels.

This is also Bronze Tree's main target this time!

That's right, Mercury, who possessed the "script," still guessed wrong.

Bronze Tree's goal is not to expand and recruit people.

In this world, ghouls can do more than just buy a few submachine guns.

With the support of large-scale weapons, even a C-rank ghoul can unleash tremendous power.

The rocket launcher can even rival the destructive power of the special-grade quinque of the Faji.

Moreover, there are more options available, making it easier to get started.

The now-powerful Bronze Tree had long set its sights on something much deeper.

As for why, the Bronze Tree knows these things.

This is all thanks to a little traitor appearing in the Xiu family.

"hehe……"

……

"Achoo!"

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Have you caught a cold?"

Inside the Red Moon Orphanage, seeing Juuzou Suzuya sitting alone in a chair, lost in thought, the old director came over and asked him with concern.

Although it is summer now, the old director is still worried about the children's health.

Looking at the stitches all over the child's body, I sighed heavily.

Another poor child.

"No, I'm wondering what will happen to the kittens if the mother cat dies. I'm really looking forward to it!"

Looking at a cat house in the corner of the yard, the old headmaster sighed heavily again.

It seems we'll have to wait a while before sending him back to school.

The old headmaster patted Suzuya Juuzou's head and sat down beside him.

She quietly watched with him.
