Crossover Anime: The King of Time? Actually, He's a Slacker!

Late at night, everything around him fell silent. Because there weren't enough rooms, Lin Shiye slept alone...

"This is Caiye's room when she was little." He leaned back and fell heavily onto the bed, his gaze sweeping over the plain ceiling and the old desk against the wall.

"She really doesn't have a single girlish heart."

That's right, Aya was dragged to the master bedroom by her mother to sleep together. This mother would never allow the two of them to share a room. Although putting Asahi and Nai in the same room also made her a little conflicted, after thinking it over, the two grown men shouldn't cause any trouble... probably.

(You make me so eager...)

The phone rang, and Yachiyo initiated a video call.

Lin Shiye raised an eyebrow in surprise and casually clicked "agree".

"Dad!" Huiyao's big face filled the screen first.

"Are you asleep? Are you asleep?"

"You won't answer the phone when you're asleep, right?" Lin Shiye said with a helpless smile.

"I was just getting ready to sleep, what do you want calling at this hour?"

"Because I'm really curious about what Aya's house looks like~" Huiyao pouted.

"None of you are taking me with you. I also want to meet Aya's mother..."

Lin Shiye chuckled softly, offering no explanation. If he really brought these two people, Mrs. Jiuji would probably be under immense pressure.

"Is Aya's mother easy to talk to?" Yachiyo reached out and pulled Kagura aside, revealing half of her face as she asked.

"It's alright." Lin Shiye felt that Jiu Ji Hongye was already a relatively open-minded mother.

Of course... it's also possible that they've run out of options.

Yachiyo and Kagura wanted to ask something more, but just then, a light, short knock sounded on the door.

Lin Shiye blinked in confusion. Just as he sat up in bed, he saw the door being quietly pushed open a crack. Caiye peeked in and, seeing that he was still awake, quickly slipped in and then quietly locked the door from the inside.

"...Why did you come here?" Lin Shiye silently turned off his phone and tossed it aside.

"Mom is asleep, I'll come and sleep with you." Caiye tilted her head, her voice low and tentative.

"Is that not allowed?"

Lin Shiye's breath hitched. "Don't make such a cute face!"

"Sure, of course, this is your room."

He shifted to the side, making room for Caiye to lie down.

"Come on, come on~"

Caiye raised her hand and turned off the room light, and the room instantly went dark, with only a few rays of moonlight leaking in from the window.

She tiptoed into bed, her body inevitably brushing against Lin Shiye's arm, feeling his warm body temperature so close to hers.

The air was silent for a moment. Just as Lin Shiye was racking his brains, Caiye unexpectedly spoke first.

A lot has happened during this time.

"Huh?" Lin Shiye was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that she was referring to the period from when she found Huiyao until now.

"Indeed, it feels like my mundane life has become more exciting."

Compared to Aya, he encountered even more: the absurd Holy Grail War, the Jujutsu Kaisen which was about to get back on track, and... the treacherous and cunning Time Jackers lurking in the shadows.

However, it doesn't matter.

A confident smile appeared on Lin Shiye's lips.

He is the strongest.

"Two months ago, I never imagined that we would end up like this." Aya's voice was soft, but it was exceptionally clear in the quiet night.

Lin Shiye didn't speak, but turned to look in her direction. The moonlight outlined the contours of her profile, soft and delicate, yet with a hint of seriousness.

"I'm jealous of you, and I envy you." Caiye took a deep breath, her thoughts seemingly returning to a long time ago.

"From the moment I first met you, I noticed that you... radiate a strong sense of self-confidence at all times."

"It's too dazzling, so dazzling it's uncomfortably bright."

She had only ever seen that feeling in her own brother.

"So you had such a good first impression of me?" Lin Shiye whispered, secretly pleased.

"But ever since we sat next to each other at the same desk and got to know each other, I've realized you're a complete weirdo." Aya's face was full of speechlessness, but unfortunately, it was impossible to see in the dark.

"Sometimes I even wonder if you're even human."

"That's too much," Lin Shiye said in a flat tone, expressing his protest.

"Back then, I thought we definitely wouldn't get along," Caiye said, before suddenly changing the subject.

"But something happened later that changed my opinion of you."

"What is it?" Lin Shiye asked, somewhat curious.

"Luhua found out first and told us, so we've been secretly keeping an eye on you ever since." Caiye paused.

"It's about... that junior student, right? Didn't he join the student council later?"

Oh, it's Yu Ishigami.

Lin Shiye remembered that he was the image ambassador for the student council because of his good looks, and it was around that time that he gradually became familiar with Shirogane Yuki.

As for Yu Ishigami's story, it's actually not much different from the original work.

In short, Yu Ishigami wants to uphold justice, but in the end he is ostracized and bullied by everyone. After all, how could a gloomy nobody possibly fight against a popular person surrounded by everyone?

Although Miyuki Shirogane resolved the matter well in the original story, it wasn't enough!

The methods are too gentle, like children playing house.

Lin Shiye longed for war.

Explode the school...and everyone!

Before he could even put his plan into action, Nangong Nayue saw right through him, grabbed him by the ear, and dragged him back, ruining the dangerous scheme on the spot.

Although the idea of ​​causing trouble was nipped in the bud, Lin Shiye still intervened. He and Bai Yinyu worked together, with one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop.

When Yu Ishigami was forced to drop out of school and locked himself at home on the verge of despair, he directly cosplayed Jiahao from the marble soda bottle and punched the door of Jiahao's house.

Then, Shirogane Miyuki, covered in cold sweat, quickly stepped forward to comfort Ishigami Yu, who was terrified, and took the opportunity to encourage him.

After that, Lin Shiye dealt swiftly with all those involved in the bullying. The instigator was expelled from school, and the rest were all terrified. Finally, he sent Shirogane Miyuki to play the good cop, and the group was so grateful that they wept and rushed to apologize to Ishigami Yu.

Later, when they talked about this, Yu Ishigami said that although he was terrified at the time, he also felt inexplicably awesome.

Of course, in the final stages of the matter, the school's higher-ups were also thoroughly scolded by Nangong Nayue.

"Back then, I thought you were really weird," Aya said, chuckling softly.

"Back then, you were the heartthrob of every girl in school. You could have easily won over that so-called 'popular guy' with just a few words, or even just a statement, right?"

"He insisted on playing the bad cop, acting like a delinquent, and ended up ruining his reputation."

"I don't care about that." Lin Shiye said lazily. He just wanted to have fun and do whatever made him happy.

"Yes..." Caiye lowered her eyes slightly, a gentle smile on her lips.

That's precisely what makes it so captivating.

The air fell silent again. Lin Shiye had given up on finding topics to talk about and was about to close his eyes and go to sleep when Caiye's voice rang out once more.

"You and I are so different... Sometimes I feel like we're from different worlds."

Why do you like me?

"Because I fell in love with you at first sight." Lin Shiye turned his head and said in a serious tone.

"So you've fallen for quite a few girls at first sight," Caiye teased with a smile.

"Not everyone can make me fall in love at first sight," Lin Shiye smiled.

"The colorful leaves are the best."

There's no such thing as love at first sight; it's all premeditated.

If you meet a girl you like, you should do everything you can to win her over!

Otherwise, wouldn't he have lost a lot of money by making this trip through time?

"Thank you for everything." Aya's tone suddenly became serious.

"Whether it's for you or to live up to my mother's expectations, I will definitely... go further."

Just as Lin Shiye was about to say a few words of encouragement, Caiye suddenly moved.

She propped herself up on her arms, gently straddled him, and looked down at him intently. Moonlight streamed in through the gaps in the curtains, casting shadows on their faces.

"Lin Shiye, I like you!"

Lin Shiye's pupils suddenly contracted.

.........

The phone screen had long since gone black, but the call hadn't ended.

"Oh, so it's a late-night heart-to-heart talk session~" Yachiyo nodded, looking like she understood.

"Let's keep our voices down and not disturb them."

"Oh~ Dad used to do things like that?" Huiyao's eyes sparkled, his face full of admiration.

"So handsome!"

"She confessed." Yachiyo clapped her hands lightly, her tone slightly amused.

"Even though he's my dad, I'm still so jealous." Huiyao shifted uncomfortably.

"Aya never said that to me!"

After a while, I could faintly hear rapid breathing through the receiver.

"Huh? Did they go for a run in the middle of the night?" Huiyao tilted his head in confusion.

"Ah..." A bead of cold sweat instantly slid down Yachiyo's forehead. She hurriedly hung up the call, a helpless smile on her face.

"Alright, alright, it's time to sleep. Kids shouldn't stay up late, Kaguya-hime~"

"Hey~ I'm not sleepy yet." Huiyao mumbled, but didn't make a fuss anymore.
