Crossover Anime: This is not pure love at all

Yotsuba Nakano is very troubled lately.

Ever since she saw the black-haired boy surrounded by two girls at the coffee shop that morning, a strange sense of familiarity had been lingering in her mind, and she couldn't shake it off.

Although the boy left for a while and then came back, Yotsuba didn't dare to go up and chat with him until the other three left.

She was a little afraid of making a misunderstanding.

But now that school is over, she regrets it.

Who is she...?

Yotsuba, carrying her schoolbag, walked home from school, tilting her head in distress, her green bunny ear headband swaying with her movements.

Because she was feeling troubled, she deliberately stayed out a little later tonight, hoping to remember something by dusk.

"Hmm...where have I seen this before...?"

Yotsuba slapped her head hard, trying to recall that blurry memory.

Unfortunately, she wasn't naturally a person who liked to use her brain. She thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Instead, she confused herself.

"Forget it, forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore!"

Yotsuba shook her head and decided to give up on this brain-teasing question.

However, as she wandered aimlessly, she unknowingly turned into a quiet residential area.

"Um?"

Yotsuba's steps suddenly stopped.

She saw a strange white light suddenly flash through the courtyard wall of a detached house not far ahead.

The white light wasn't dazzling, but it had a strange sense of déjà vu.

"That light..."

Yotsuba stared blankly at the white light.

She remembered that the last time she inexplicably appeared here, she seemed to have seen this light as well!

Could it be... that strange teleportation was related to this place?!

Yotsuba's curiosity was instantly ignited, and she tiptoed closer, wanting to find out what was going on.

……

Meanwhile, inside the courtyard walls.

Kuroe Minoru was squatting on the lawn, with a large blue box full of acrylic standees in front of him.

"Thud!"

The pen tip severed the red "tongue," and then Kuroe threw it away. A flash of white light appeared, and a bewildered young girl appeared on the street outside the door.

"Huh? Wasn't I shopping? How did I end up in front of someone's house?" The girl rubbed her eyes, looking completely bewildered.

However, she didn't go into details. She simply checked herself to make sure she hadn't lost anything, and then left, claiming she might have amnesia.

"Phew, only a few left."

Kuroe wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood up to stretch his aching back.

To prevent releasing too many people at once from causing a riot, he would release one person at a time, check to make sure there were no passersby outside, and then untie the next one. This was quite a lot of work.

Kuroe stood on tiptoe, gripping the edge of the courtyard wall with both hands, trying to observe the street outside.

As soon as he poked his head out...

Their gazes collided mid-air with Yotsuba, who was tiptoeing and trying to peek into the yard.

"..."

"..."

Looking at the energetic girl in front of him, wearing a green bunny ear headband and with wide eyes, Kuroe Minoru's brain instantly went blank.

That blank stare, that face!

Isn't this Yotsuba?

What is she doing here?!

Meanwhile, Yotsuba, outside the wall, had her eyes light up like two little light bulbs the moment she saw Kuroe Minoru's face.

"Ah! It's you!"

Yotsuba excitedly pointed at Kuroe Minoru and shouted, "That boy from the coffee shop this morning!"

!!!

What the heck is a coffee shop?!

Startled by her sudden shout, Kuroe Minoru jolted back and instinctively ducked his head, crouching down against the wall, his heart pounding wildly.

Seeing that Kuroe had retreated, Yotsuba, who was outside the wall, became even more excited instead of leaving.

She ran to the iron gate of the yard in a few quick steps, grabbed the bars with both hands, pressed her little face against the gap, and shouted loudly inside:

"Hey—! You inside! I see you!"

"You're that glowing alien, aren't you?!"

"You were the one who suddenly teleported me here from the street last time, weren't you?!"

Hearing Yotsuba's wildly imaginative shouts from outside the door, Kuroe Minoru's lips twitched uncontrollably.

How could they possibly be aliens...?

Kuroe Minoru took a deep breath, knowing there was no way to avoid it, and could only grit his teeth and stand up to look at Yotsuba.

"Ahem...you've misunderstood."

Kuroe Minoru casually pulled out the portable flashlight he'd gotten from a ten-pull gacha in his system space, waved it in front of Yotsuba, pressed the switch twice, and forced an explanation:

"I was just... playing with the flashlight. It's a really good quality flashlight, the light is really bright, and it was flashing, which might have made you think that."

The excitement on Yotsuba's face froze instantly.

She looked at Kuroe Minoru through the fence with an indescribably complex expression.

"Um..." Yotsuba pointed to her face and asked very seriously, "Do I look like an idiot?"

Hei Jiangshi looked her up and down.

A look of naivety shone through his clear eyes.

Kuroe Minoru nodded without hesitation, his tone utterly sincere:

"picture."

"..."

Yotsuba puffed out her cheeks and protested angrily, "That's too much! Even though my grades aren't good and I sometimes get zero, I'm not the kind of idiot who'd be fooled by an excuse like 'playing with a flashlight'!"

"That light just now was exactly the same as last time! And last time I woke up, it was also on a street near your house!"

Seeing Yotsuba's relentless attitude, as if she were saying, "If you don't tell the truth, I'll shout here until dawn," Kuroe Minoru rubbed his temples in anguish.

If we keep arguing, it might call out Sagiri and her daughter from next door.

He sighed, walked to the gate, and opened it a crack.

"Come inside first, don't shout outside."

Yotsuba's eyes lit up, and she immediately darted in like a nimble little rabbit.

Kuroe closed the door and led Yotsuba to a corner of the yard.

"Since you insist on knowing, then I'll tell you. But..." Kuroe's expression turned serious as he looked down at her. "You must swear that you will never tell anyone what you heard or saw today, including your family and sisters. Can you do that?"

Hei Jiang said that there was a reason for this premise.

Although the original work made everyone much more careful when spreading it online, making it less easy to get caught.

However, in the real world, he was genuinely worried that the Sugar Man might find it difficult to capture the Japanese, so he opened a portal to other countries.

In that case, he wouldn't be able to punish them.

So it's best not to make a fuss before he gets his hands on the Sugar Man world.

Stared at by Kuroe Minoru's serious gaze, Yotsuba involuntarily swallowed, immediately stood up straight, nodded vigorously, and even made a zipping motion on her mouth.

"I swear! It will be a complete secret!"

"Actually, the reason you suddenly lost your memory and ended up here last time was because you were attacked by a monster."
