Crossover Anime: This is not pure love at all

"Hmm, so you mean you not only skipped class today, but you also missed the disciplinary committee's daily patrol?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka lowered her head and took a sip of coffee, her tone revealing no emotion.

As he listened to Hiratsuka Shizuka's indifferent question, large beads of sweat rolled down Kuroe Minoru's forehead.

got caught!

Although he sped all the way to school after finishing the experiment, there was nothing he could do; being late was being late.

He was late when he started experimenting with the mirrors in his house.

As for the lack of routine patrols...

Kuroe Minoru stated that he believes in the system's predictive capabilities.

"Um...sorry, I overslept..."

Seeing Kuroe Minoru's remorseful expression, Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't help but sigh.

The reason for being late is that I overslept, so what else can I say?

After all, this kid is usually quite honest, so he probably didn't arrive late on purpose.

"well……"

Hiratsuka Shizuka rubbed her temples.

"Alright, alright, stop making that pitiful face."

Hiratsuka Shizuka waved her hand, her tone softening, "Oversleeping once in a while is understandable, given your heavy academic workload. But don't do it again, understand?"

"Yes! Thank you, Hiratsuka-sensei!"

Hei Jiang felt as if he had been granted a pardon and quickly bowed.

"Go back to class. I'll put in a good word with the disciplinary committee for you."

"Okay, teacher. Goodbye, teacher!"

Hei Jiang slipped away from the office quickly.

Walking down the corridor back to the classroom, Kuroe Minoru let out a long sigh of relief.

Back in Class 2-F, as soon as Kuroe Minoru sat down, several pairs of eyes immediately turned to him.

"Kuroe-kun, where did you go this morning? I thought you were sick," Yui Yuigahama asked with some concern as she leaned closer.

Facing this girl with the bun hairstyle who hadn't had a role in a long time, Kuroe Minoru awkwardly scratched his head.

"Um, I'm sorry to have worried you. Actually, I accidentally fell asleep."

"Oh, I see. It's good that you're alright." Yui patted her chest, then looked at him with bright eyes, clasped her hands together, and said, "Um... Kuroe-kun, do you have time after school today? I'd like to invite you to my mom's shop for dinner!"

"To Auntie's shop?" Kuroe Minoru paused, recalling the events of that night, and asked curiously, "Did she move?"

"Huh? How did you know?"

Yui Yuigahama blinked in surprise, then nodded and whispered, "Yes, Mom said she didn't want to rent from that awful landlord anymore. She just got her deposit back and some compensation, so she quickly found a new shop elsewhere. Today is the first day of the new shop's soft opening! That's why Mom specifically told me to invite you!"

"I see."

Kuroe Minoru smiled and said, "Okay, I'll definitely go after school."

A glint flashed in Kato Megumi's eyes as she watched the two seemingly chatting and laughing.

opportunity!

……

The school bell rang, and the students of Zongwu University packed their bags and prepared to leave.

Just as Kuroe Minoru was about to stand up, he saw Yui already standing smiling in front of his desk.

"Kuroe! Do you remember we were going to Mom's shop today?"

"I remember, I remember."

Kuroe Minoru responded, packed his bag, and followed Yui out of the classroom.

The sunlight slanted in through the corridor, casting long shadows of the two people.

"By the way, where is the new store? How far is it from the old location?" Kuroe suddenly remembered and asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Yui seemed to be thinking, poking a finger on her chin and tilting her head slightly.

"It's about a 15-minute walk. My mom said the new place has much better natural light than the old one, and the landlord is also very nice!"

"And this time, Mom had the lawyer review the contract carefully, so the same thing won't happen again!"

"That's good."

Kuroe Minoru nodded, and the two walked out of the school gate, following the route Yui was familiar with towards the new store.

About twenty meters behind them.

Kato Megumi followed silently, her steps as light as a cat's, without making a sound.

Her gaze fell on the backs of the two walking side by side, and her slender fingers unconsciously pressed lightly against her chest.

This feeling...

How annoying!

……

After walking for about ten minutes, Kuroe Minoru paused for a moment.

"Hiss... Huh?"

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Yui noticed that Kuroe Minoru kept looking around, which puzzled her.

"It's nothing."

Kuroe Minoru shook his head.

This area looks familiar.

Two minutes further on, a cozy little shop with a brand-new wooden sign came into view.

The sign reads "Yuigahama Shokudo" and there are several handmade paper flowers pasted on the glass window of the store, which were obviously decorated by Yui.

"This is it!"

Yui Yuigahama pointed to the cozy little shop and smiled happily.

Kuroe looked at the shop in front of him, then turned to look at the other end of the street, and his lips twitched slightly.

"Yuihama-san..."

Kuroe pointed to the detached house. "If I remember correctly, my house is on the corner of that street, about 300 meters from here."

"Why?!"

Yui's eyes widened as she looked in the direction Kuroe Minoru was pointing, her little mouth adorably forming an "O" shape.

"Really?! What a coincidence!"

Yui covered her mouth in surprise, then, as if she had thought of something, two blushes instantly appeared on her cheeks.

If that's the case, wouldn't she be able to go to school with Kuroe every day from now on?

Then they might naturally become a couple...

"Anyway, let's go inside!"

After Yui recovered, she quickly ran to the back and pushed Kuroe Minoru forward.

"Huh?! Why the sudden rush?"

"Ding-a-ling~"

The clear sound of wind chimes rang out.

Welcome!

Mrs. Yuihama's gentle voice came from the cashier.

"Mom! It's us!"

Yui ran out from behind Kuroe Minoru, her little face flushed.

"Oh! It's Kuroe-kun, welcome, welcome!"

Upon seeing Kuroe Minoru, Mrs. Yuihama's gentle smile deepened, and combined with her mature demeanor and youthful appearance, she looked exceptionally charming.

Hello, Auntie.

Kuroe Minoru walked into the store, greeted everyone, and then looked around.

The new store is slightly larger than the previous one, and it's decorated very warmly.

The natural wood tables and chairs, the warm yellow lighting, and the several paintings by Yui from her childhood hanging on the wall create a warm and family atmosphere.

However, when Kuroe Minoru's gaze swept over a table near the window, he froze.

At the table sat two figures he recognized very well.

One is a mature woman with long silver hair and delicate features.

The other one is a little girl with long silver hair who looks as cute as a doll.

It was his neighbor, Izumi-san and Izumi Sagiri!
