In this crossover anime, Yoshikage Kira longs for a peaceful life.

"Hai Meng, how many employees are there in the store?"

"Huh? There are six people in total."

Kitagawa Kaimu paused for a moment, then answered fluently, "Me, Nanami, and Ms. Nakahara. Also, Kurumi, oh, she's a relative of the manager, so she's just a figurehead."

"In addition to these, there are Ms. Nishiki and Ms. Inoue, who are mainly responsible for delivery services, but they haven't arrived yet."

Yui Yuigahama was somewhat surprised:

"You also offer delivery?"

"So, excluding delivery drivers and the store manager's relatives, there are only 3 people in the store?"

Miura Yumiko seemed to be thinking to herself, "That makes a lot more sense."

Jingle Bell!

The doorbell rang, and everyone's eyes instinctively turned to the doorway.

They were two girls of similar age, wearing red and blue uniforms respectively. Although the colors were different, the styles were clearly the same.

Kitagawa Kaimu greeted them with a smile:

"Good afternoon, Ms. Nishiki and Ms. Inoue."

The girl with platinum blonde short hair smiled brightly:

"Hai Meng, didn't I tell you? Call me Chizuka!"

"I'm sorry, Chizuka."

Kitagawa Kaimu stuck out her tongue.

Seeing their familiar demeanor, Miura Yumiko finally began to dispel her doubts.

So, it's highly likely that Haimeng really did sleep here last night. Since the shop is full of cute girls, there's nothing to worry about.

Yui Yuigahama looked at the two of them in their uniforms and muttered to herself:

"I think I've seen similar uniforms before."

Nishiki Chizuka leaned closer and asked curiously:

"Huh? Really? Where?"

Yui Yuigahama recalled:

"They were near the school, but their clothes were beige, and the styles just looked similar..."

"You just happened to be passing by, right?"

Chizuka Nishiki laughed it off, "Ah, sorry, I need to change my clothes first, let's talk later~!"

As she spoke, the girl pushed open the door next to the bar and entered the staff break area, blocking the view of others.

Pushing open several doors in a row, Nishiki Chizuka strode into the room and opened the closet door.

On the upper shelf of the closet, a petite girl with blonde hair and blue eyes sat in a futuristic recliner, staring intently at the holographic screen in front of her, her hands rapidly typing on the keyboard.

Nishiki Chizuka asked impatiently:

"Have you found Walnut?"

"what."

Hu Tao seemed to finally realize what was happening and nervously cut off the screen.

But before that, Chizuka Nishiki had already seen what was on the screen—

In short, Hu Tao is discussing piano techniques with the Zaunite while also protecting her parents.

"It has been found."

Hu Tao pretended nothing had happened, adjusted the image on the screen to an enlarged photograph, and explained methodically, "Those terrorists all entered the country in the past week, and they came from almost all over the world."

"The only thing they have in common is that the information obtained from their phones confirms that the person responsible for contacting them is the same person."

"Aoba Mimori".

Looking at the gaunt man in the photo, Chizuki Nishiki felt somewhat disappointed.

"Hmm~ It doesn't look particularly special."

No, there are still some.

Hu Tao remained noncommittal, but quickly pulled up another photo.

It was a photo taken during a media interview. The person being interviewed was a bald, burly man wearing a purple coat and a bowler hat, while Aoba Mimori, who was in the previous photo, was standing respectfully next to him.

Walnut stretched out her delicate white hand from her wide sleeve and pointed at the bald, muscular man in the photo:

“There’s nothing particularly special about Aoba Mimori, but he has been John Backus’s secretary for twelve years. And John Backus is the mayor of West Tokyo.”

In other words, it is highly likely that Aoba Mimori's actions in contacting terrorists were instigated by John Backus.

Nishiki Chizuka clicked her tongue and couldn't help but sigh softly:

"The mayor of West Tokyo City is quite an important figure!"

Inoue Takina frowned, still full of questions:

"But why would they assassinate an ordinary high school student?"

"I do not know either."

Hu Tao shrugged. She also wanted to know why the mayor of West Tokyo would be so bored as to hire terrorists to assassinate an ordinary high school girl. No, she wasn't exactly ordinary. After all, most girls who could get into Shuchiin Academy had some skills, but surely they weren't so desperate as to warrant being hired to kill someone?

10:00 in the evening.

Koyasu watched Kira Yoshikage leave the bar without saying a word, then silently walked to the women's changing room and changed her clothes as quickly as possible.

As she left, Yoshikage Kira also came out of the dressing room and was walking towards the elevator.

Koyasu Yan stood silently to the side, waiting for the elevator with Kira Yoshikage.

Ding dong~!

The elevator doors opened, and Koyasu Tsubame followed Kira Yoshikage into the elevator without saying a word.

The elevator slowly descended until the doors closed.

call!

Koyasu Tsubame took a deep breath, forcing herself not to look up at Kira Yoshikage, and simply asked softly:

"Kira-kun, wanna grab something to eat? Like a late-night snack, hmm~,"

After a slight pause, the girl added:

"It's on me."

Kira Yoshikage looked down at the girl's hands, those small, white hands were now tightly entangled because of their owner's nervousness.

Yoshikage Kira took out his phone and checked the time:

"I need to be home before 11 o'clock."

"Huh?"

Ziyan didn't expect such a response, but she quickly recovered and hurriedly said, "It's okay, we can have fast food, it won't take long. Hmm~, I remember there's a KFC nearby."

"Row."

Yoshikage Kira nodded slightly and said nothing more.

Zian Yan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

at last.

We've finally taken the first step!

"However, just as Walnut predicted. Kira-kun will only accept her invitation when they are alone. And if she offers to treat him, Kira-kun simply cannot refuse."

"As expected of Walnut, Zhenfei's 1000 million consulting fee was well spent!"

The girl's inner thoughts were extremely frequent, and her secret joy was even evident in her words.

Ding dong~!

Soon, the elevator arrived at the first floor.

The notification sound brought the girl back to her senses, and she quickly composed herself.

Zi An Yan quickly stepped out of the elevator, crossed the hotel lobby, and followed the zebra crossing to the KFC across the street.

The girl didn't turn around to check if Yoshikage Kira had followed; she simply walked quickly toward the cashier.

Behind the cashier, a girl with long blue hair styled in a single ponytail flashed a professional smile:

"Welcome! Would you like to order à la carte or buffet style?"

"Self-service, for a total of two adults."

Koyasu handed over a Fukuzawa Yukichi card.

"The self-service fee is 2480 yen per person. Here is your change of 5040 yen. This is your receipt."

Koyasu Yan took the change and receipt from the girl, and when she turned around, she saw Kira Yoshikage standing behind her, smiling and waving the receipt. "Kira-kun, let's find a seat!"

Actually, there's no need to look for it at all.

Because there was no one else in the restaurant, they were the only two customers.

There was only one waitress, a blue-haired girl, and the entire restaurant was unusually quiet.

Yoshikage Kira suddenly asked:

What time do you close for business?

The girl with the blue ponytail paused slightly, then answered fluently, "We are open 24 hours a day, and the self-service will continue, so you two don't need to worry. Also, I will be off work at 11 o'clock, but don't worry, other colleagues will come to relieve me then."

Koyasu Tsubame suddenly gently tugged at Kira Yoshikage's arm, pointed to the seat by the window, and smiled:

"Hey Kira-kun, how about sitting here? You can see the street view!"

Yoshikage Kira did not resist, nor did he ask any more questions. He simply let Tsubame Koyasu pull him to sit by the window.
