Crossover Anime: This is not pure love at all

"How desperate for money are you that you're even using your class time to work?"

Kuroe Minoru looked at Yamada Ryo somewhat speechlessly.

"Hmm... because I've got my eye on a new bass."

Yamada Ryomen said expressionlessly, but a barely perceptible fervor flashed in his golden eyes.

"Besides, I recently borrowed money from Kita, and if I don't pay it back soon, Nijika will kill me."

"..."

Kuroe Minoru sighed. This was so Yamada Ryo.

Forget it, he didn't want to waste any more breath on this scumbag woman, otherwise he might be asked to borrow money later. So he picked up his drink, turned around, and walked out of the convenience store.

There are still nearly four hours until the system alert time, so you have plenty of time to wander around.

Kuroe wandered aimlessly through the streets of Shimokitazawa, getting familiar with the surroundings.

It must be said that the atmosphere in Shimokitazawa is indeed quite different from that in Chiba City.

This place is full of vintage clothing stores, record stores, and live music venues hidden in basements.

Young people playing in bands can be seen everywhere on the streets.

For example, when Kuroe Minoru unscrewed the cap of his oolong tea and took a sip, he was about to find a bench to sit down and kill some time when he saw a group of people.

The girl in the lead was a short, reddish-brown haircut that looked like a little hedgehog, and she was excitedly talking to a mature woman with long, milky-gold hair and black stockings next to her.

The woman with long, straight black hair standing to the side had a smug look on her face, as if she was watching a good show.

The short-haired girl was walking backwards, gesturing excitedly with her hands in the air.

……

"Hey, I got it. But Nina, everyone's experiences are different. You can't expect us to fabricate that heart-wrenching tragedy out of thin air, can you?"

Looking at Rencai's expression, he said with a hint of helplessness.

"Yeah, Nina, and watch where you're going, there are lots of people here..."

An and Subaru were also speaking, but she had barely finished speaking.

"Hmm! Ma! Ah!"

A loud, foul noise suddenly came from the building next door (sadly), startling Rencai who was walking backwards.

"what!"

Suddenly, Jing Qinren tripped and lost her balance, falling straight backward.

"Watch out!" Anwa Subaru and Kawara Momoka's expressions changed, and they tried to reach out to pull him back, but they were too far away and it was too late.

It looked like Rencai's head was about to make intimate contact with the hard asphalt road.

Just then, a strong arm steadily supported her back.

With one hand holding the oolong tea, Kuroe Minoru gently put her other arm around Nina's shoulder, steadily supporting her falling body.

"Phew, thankfully I made it in time."

The boy's gentle voice rang in Rencai's ears.

"Ah...no, I'm so sorry!"

Renna, still shaken, straightened up and quickly turned around to bow and apologize.

However, when she looked up and saw the boy's face clearly, she was instantly stunned.

Sunlight filtered through the leaves on the trees lining the street, illuminating Kuroe Minoru's face and making his handsome features even more striking.

In the first ten years or so of her life, whether in her hometown of Kumamoto or in Kawasaki, Nina had never met a boy who was this good-looking.

Her face, which had been pale with fright, suddenly turned bright red.

"Th-thank you for saving me..." Nina stammered, her gaze involuntarily drifting to the side, unable to look Kuroe Minoru in the eye.

Meanwhile, Kuroe Minoru was also watching her.

This bouncy art style... this little red-haired guy... this face...

Could this be a type of herb called "Ren Cai"?

"Nina, are you alright?"

At that moment, Momoka and Subaru also rushed over.

"I'm fine, thanks to this person..." Nina said softly.

Anwa Subaru and Kawara Momoka raised their heads and looked at Kuroe Minoru, a hint of amazement flashing in their eyes at the same time.

What a handsome guy!

Even in a place like Shimokitazawa, where handsome men and beautiful women abound, the young man in front of you, dressed in ordinary casual clothes, stands out from the crowd in terms of looks and demeanor.

"Thank you so much for helping our lead singer." As the eldest member of the band, Momoka was the first to react and politely thanked Kuroe Minoru.

"It was just a small favor."

Kuroe Minoru smiled, then glanced strangely at the building next to him from which the strange noise was coming from.

Forget it, just in case, I'd better not go in... (sad)

"Um..." Kuroe forcibly shifted his attention away from the strange voice, looked at the three girls in front of him, and casually asked, "I think I just heard you guys talking about music? Are you in a band?"

"Yes!"

The moment music was mentioned, Nina, who had been a little shy, perked up instantly. She nodded vigorously, and even the ahoge (cowlick) on her head swayed.

"We are Shin-Kawasaki! My name is Iori Nina, and I'm the lead vocalist!"

"Ugh!!! I already told you I didn't want this name!"

When Anwa Subaru heard Nina say that, he looked furious.

Peach Fragrance helplessly covered her face.

Why did it turn out like this? We were forced to agree to this name.

Okay, I knew it...

Hei Jiang inwardly complained, but outwardly pretended to be unaware and showed a faint smile.

"Shin-Kawasaki? That's an interesting name. My name is Kuroe Minoru."

"See! Even Mr. Kuroe thinks this name is good!" Nina seemed to have found a kindred spirit, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Momoka and Anwa Subaru.

"That was just a polite remark."

Momoka lowered her hand from her face and looked at Kuroe Minoru, her eyes showing a hint of adult composure: "Anyway, we're very grateful to you for what happened earlier. If you don't mind, how about we buy you a drink? Consider it a token of our gratitude."

Kuroe glanced at the time on his phone. He had plenty of time, and since he was just idling around on the streets of Shimokitazawa, he figured it was getting a bit boring. So he nodded in agreement.

The four of them found a nice family restaurant nearby and sat down.

After ordering their drinks, Kuroe learned that they were currently at the beginning stage of the original storyline, and Larupa and Ash had not yet joined their team.

"Speaking of which, Kuroe asked us earlier if we played in a band. Do you know anything about music?" Anwa Subaru asked, biting his straw and curiously looking at the handsome young man sitting opposite him.

"I know a little bit." Kuroe Minoru humbly took a sip of oolong tea.

With his perfect pitch and mastery of all instruments, saying he "knows a little" is indeed too modest. However, he doesn't want to be too high-profile right away, so it's better to be humble.

After all, he didn't acquire this knowledge on his own.

"Oh, right!"

Upon hearing the music, Nina suddenly remembered something, excitedly took out her phone, leaned half her body over the table, and moved close to Kuroe Minoru.

Although Nina is usually a very stubborn girl, she doesn't easily form connections with others.

But after all, the boy in front of her was the one who saved her, and he also had a look that made it easy for him to win people's favor.

So even now, Nina subconsciously wants to be "close" to him.

"Since you, Heijiang, understand music, you absolutely have to listen to this! It's an amazing guitar piece we just discovered!"

"You can easily replace 'I' with 'she'."

An and Subaru added with a smirk from behind, only to be met with a glare from Nina, who then turned back to look at Kuroe Minoru with an expectant expression.

"Forehead……"

Seeing the phone enthusiastically held up in front of her, Kuroe Minoru wanted to refuse, but when she met Nina's pitiful eyes, she had no choice but to click play.

Then his gaze unconsciously drifted downwards.

Up-loader... Guitar Hero?

Is this Boqi's account?

Then look at the title... "[Dedicated to heroes without dreams]?"
