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

"ah!"

Goto, who had been walking with his head down, didn't notice that Kira Yoshikage had stopped. He bumped into Kira Yoshikage without paying attention, gasped in surprise, and took several steps back in embarrassment.

Yoshikage Kira gazed calmly at the girl:

"What's up?"

"Um, that..."

Goto lowered her head, took a deep breath, and mentally encouraged herself. She then raised her flushed face, opened her mouth, and made a shouting motion:

“Ah, Ji… Ji… Ji… Ji… Jun…”

The voice was muffled, almost inaudible.

"You don't need to call me by my name. Just say what you need to say."

Goto's face flushed red, and she whispered:

"Ah, it's the department head... The department head said she wants you to go to the club at noon. Otherwise, she and the others will come to the classroom to find you in person."

"Tai Naka Ritsu."

Kira Yoshikage thought of that girl with short brown hair and a hair clip. Was she really that persistent?

Goto said weakly:

"Ah, the minister asked me to pass on a message to you..."

"Kira-kun, you don't want to become the center of attention because a beautiful girl with long black hair found you in the classroom under the pretense of being 'pregnant,' do you?"

"..."

Kira Yoshikage, somewhat speechless with a sense of 'I'm defeated,' sighed helplessly:

"Lead the way."

"Ah, oh."

Goto suddenly snapped to attention, silently turned around, and led the way.

-----------------

Light-tone section.

"Arno..."

Goto pushed open the door to the activities room, peeked his head out from the crack, and whispered:

"Well, Kira-kun is here."

"Poch-chan, Kira-kun, over here, over here!"

Kotobuki Tsumugi waved to the two people at the door with a smile.

Ritsu Tainaka climbed onto a chair, placed one foot on the table, and said with a serious expression:

"I hereby declare the first strategic meeting of the Light Music Club officially open!"

Goto lowered her head silently, feeling a little nervous in the serious atmosphere.

Snapped!

Akiyama Mio smacked Tainaka Ritsu on the head with her rolled-up notebook and scolded him:

"Ryu, be serious!"

"I'm stunned! Mio is so mean, waaaaah~"

Ritsu Tainaka clutched his head in pain, looking pitiful with teary eyes.

However, Akiyama Mio remained unmoved and even threatened to lift the rolled-up exercise book again.

"Well!"

Ritsu Tainaka instantly became serious, looked at Yoshikage Kira who was already seated opposite him, and earnestly introduced:

"The Light Music Club currently has six members: me, Mio, and Pochi-chan, who is in the same class as Kira-kun."

"This is Yui Hirasawa and Tsumugi Kotobuki."

"Chicken jelly mushroom, Chongwu Hao." Hirasawa Yui greeted him indistinctly, chewing on pastries like a hamster.

The young lady with long, flaxen hair greeted him politely with a slight smile:

"Nice to meet you, Kira-kun. My name is Kotobuki Tsumugi. Please take care of me."

Yoshikage Kira nodded in response to each question, but then calmly asked:

"So, is it something important that you're going to risk ruining Akiyama-kun's reputation to force me to come here?"

"Innocence? What does that mean?" Akiyama Mio was somewhat confused.

Kira Yoshikage glanced at the somewhat bewildered Akiyama Mio, and, under the frantic hints from Tainaka Ritsu, kindly reminded her:

"Tainaka asked Goto to tell me that if I don't come to the light music club at noon, she'll send a beautiful girl with long, straight black hair to find me. Her exact words were, 'You don't want to become the center of attention because a beautiful girl with long, straight black hair comes to your classroom under the pretense of being 'pregnant,' do you?'"

Akiyama Mio's originally fair face turned bright red at a visible speed, followed by a girl's angry and embarrassed shouts echoing throughout the clubroom:

"law!"

"Put it down! Mio! Put that down! It's that big, you'll really die!"

"Ah! I froze! No... not there..."

"Waaaaah! I was wrong, I won't do it again next time, no, I won't dare to do it again next time!"

boom!

Akiyama Mio's "education of love" made the instigator squat under the table with his head in his hands, while Akiyama Mio was also covered in sweat from playing around with Tainaka Ritsu. The Overseas Chinese Association was still flushed and had no idea how to face Kira Yoshikage.

The young lady thoughtfully handed Akiyama Mio a towel, her voice gentle:

"MIO, wipe it clean."

Yoshikage Kira observed all of this and stood up from his seat:

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. I need to go to the cafeteria for lunch..."

"Kira-kun, please wait a moment."

Ritsu Tainaka crawled out from under the table, bowed ninety degrees to Yoshikage Kira, and his attitude was sincere:

"I'm sorry, Kira-kun, I'm so sorry for the inconvenience caused by my willfulness!"

At first, she simply had some complaints about Yoshikage Kira, feeling that since he had joined the Light Music Club, participating in club activities was only natural. But Yoshikage Kira's behavior of using the Light Music Club as a shield was really too much!

That's why she had Goto use what was almost a 'threat' to force Kira Yoshikage to come.

But this morning, she learned some things about Yoshikage Kira's family situation from his homeroom teacher, Ms. Hiratsuka.

In short, he has no family.

Yoshikage Kira was an orphan.

His primary and middle school years were probably manageable because of the government's compulsory education system; public schools didn't require tuition, so life wasn't too difficult. However, high school wasn't part of compulsory education, so Yoshikage Kira had to work odd jobs to earn his tuition.

Tainaka Ritsu did a quick calculation and found that if calculated based on the minimum hourly wage, Kira Yoshikage would have to spend almost all of his spare time working to barely scrape together enough tuition fees!

Moreover, this was based on the fact that Yoshikage Kira usually lived frugally, barely able to afford the bare minimum of food and clothing, and his life was extremely difficult.

Any other expense, even just 100 yen, would be an unbearable luxury for Yoshikage Kira.

Perhaps it's just because he drank one cup of milk tea in a year that he doesn't have enough money left to pay his tuition.

Yesterday she was complaining that Yoshikage Kira couldn't even squeeze out an hour a day, but now she realizes that Yoshikage Kira really doesn't have an hour of free time!

Ritsu Tainaka was filled with regret, regretting her willfulness and her insistence on demanding others be like her when she knew nothing. That's why, even if it meant losing face, she apologized to Yoshikage Kira in front of the other members.

Faced with the girl's sincere apology, Yoshikage Kira stopped and softened his tone:

“It’s okay, you don’t need to apologize, because I don’t think you’ve done anything wrong.”

"If you want to apologize, Akiyama would be a better person to apologize to."

Ritsu Tainaka, still bent over, raised her head, winked at Yoshikage Kira, tapped her head with her fist, and stuck out her tongue:

"Hehe~"

"Don't play dumb!"

Still embarrassed and annoyed, Akiyama Mio grabbed her friend's shoulders and shook her wildly.

The young lady covered her mouth to stifle a soft laugh, and seeing that Kira Yoshikage still hadn't taken a seat, she considerately brought out a huge, deluxe bento box:

"I've prepared lunch!"

Upon opening the lid, a vibrant golden color immediately catches the eye—

That was an enormous bento box divided into six compartments!

And each compartment contains completely different ingredients, yet all are incredibly luxurious bento boxes!

Golden fried pork chops, tender shrimp, crab roe that looks like scrambled eggs, abalone... all kinds of expensive ingredients are available.

"Ah! There's fried pork cutlet!"

Hirasawa Yui swallowed the pastry in her mouth and pointed to one of the bento boxes with surprise, exclaiming.

The young lady smiled gently:

"Because Yui said she wanted to eat it, I specially asked the family chef to make it~"

As Yoshikage Kira witnessed this scene, one word immediately popped into his mind:

He relied on the close-knit people to play the zither and sing.

"Kira-kun, how about we have lunch together?"

The young lady extended a sincere invitation with a gentle smile.

"Kira-kun."

Tian Jingzhong's law is good at teaching:

"You wouldn't want MIO to come to your classroom with a leftover lunchbox, would you?"

Kira Yoshikage glanced at Tainaka Ritsu, who was displaying his characteristic whimsical nature, and as a reward, Akiyama Mio blushed and gave Tainaka Ritsu a sharp rap on the head.
