My name is Levi, and I work in anime.

Although there were some setbacks along the way, this volume was successfully completed. This book is almost 50 words long and hasn't been censored yet, which is a record I'm proud of.

Readers who enjoy reading novels might find that this volume is actually quite suitable as the finale. In fact, before the book was published, the outline only went this far.

If the book performs poorly after its release, then in this volume, Gintoki will grant all the girls the status of fiancées, allowing Li Wei to legitimately add them all to his harem. This way, although many readers won't have the opportunity to pursue them, at least no girls will be left out, which would be a satisfactory conclusion.

However, the book is doing reasonably well so far, which motivates me to keep writing, so it hasn't ended here but is still in progress.

What kind of events and girls will Livy encounter in the next volume? Let's wait and see!

Chapter 1: Every story begins peacefully.

In July, the temperature became hot, pedestrians on the street wore increasingly lighter clothes, and beverage shops gradually placed cold drinks in prominent positions, all of which proved that it was now the height of summer.

The midday sun was scorching, and the cicadas in the trees outside the window were chirping tirelessly, as if people were going to get burned by the sun too.

Fortunately, the air conditioning in the house was on full blast. Li Wei comfortably cuddled Saeko on the sofa, petting Himari until the cat was completely limp, while browsing the news on TV.

[Great news! Osaka police have cracked a financial fraud case. Nobuyuki Sugo, a former senior executive of the ALO development company "RECT Manufacturing," is under investigation for suspected stock market manipulation. His timely intervention has saved the public from losses and earned him high praise and widespread acclaim. Meanwhile, a sexy prison warden has declared that he will use love and compassion to reform criminals, helping them to repent and start anew.]

[The public safety situation has significantly improved! Last month, Beika Town saw only 114 murders and 514 robberies, a ten-year low. Inspector Megure of the First Investigation Division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department stated that the recent increase in the case clearance rate and police response rate has effectively deterred criminals, improved the social security environment, and squeezed the space for crime, providing strong support for building a safer Tokyo.]

[The Umbrella Corporation issued a statement regarding recent misinformation. CEO Oswell Edward Spencer stated that Umbrella is a socially responsible medical company, and all rumors circulating online about the company conducting biochemical experiments are false. Furthermore, there was no incident where the company's plants and trees were attacked after a zombie virus leak. Rumors stop with the wise; please do not believe or spread rumors.]

[Summer tourism fuels summer economy. As many regions enter a period of high temperatures, summer tourism has become a new engine for economic growth. The number of tourists visiting mountains for summer retreats has increased by 233% compared to the previous period, demonstrating that the demand for summer tourism has evolved from simply seeking coolness to a more diversified consumption encompassing climate therapy, outdoor sports, and cultural experiences, showing a new trend towards diversification and higher quality.]

[Another visual feast! Renowned martial artist Rugal Bernstein will continue to host this year's King of Fighters tournament, with an expanded scale and more participants. In an interview, he stated that he will continue to organize various cultural and sports activities to enrich the spiritual and cultural development of the people, continuously unleash the potential of sports consumption, and further promote the high-quality development of the sports industry.]

That concludes this news report. Reporter Aya Shameimaru will continue to follow up. Thank you for watching, goodbye.

"What a peaceful day." Li Wei couldn't help but sigh as he watched the advertisement for Jin Ke La (a popular Chinese herbal medicine) appear after the news ended.

“Yes.” Saeko Busujima, nestled in the boy’s arms, nodded in agreement.

There haven't been any world-ending events or government overthrows for months. Even simple attempts to sacrifice a city for power or summon evil tentacle monsters to attack the anti-demon ninjas haven't happened. There have only been some ordinary zombie viruses or financial scams. It couldn't be more peaceful.

If this level of security can be maintained, the exorcism squad could probably be disbanded—of course, it's also possible that this peace is due to the efforts of the exorcism squad.

It's like how Dr. Chen Shui-bian's medical skills are so good that people mistakenly think he can't treat illnesses.

Thinking this, the boy felt drowsy. Just as he was about to take Saeko back to the bedroom for a nap, the doorbell rang.

"Who is it, coming to see me in the middle of this hot weather?"

It was a bit strange, but it was very impolite to stand outside in such hot weather, so Li Wei ran to open the door as fast as he could, only to find a familiar person standing in front of him.

——Shemingwan article.

Yes, she looks very familiar. I was just watching her on TV reporting the news, and now she's changed into a deliveryman's uniform and is carrying a big box.

"Young man, I was wondering why this address looked so familiar. So you live here?" The Tengu girl curiously looked around the house, then handed over the box and delivery slip together: "Your package, sign for it if there are no problems. I'm waiting to go to the next store."

"Let me see... This was sent by Makise Kurisu. What could this be?"

Li Wei was slightly puzzled, but didn't say much. He casually signed his name and handed it over: "By the way, aren't you a reporter? Why are you also working as a deliveryman?"

"There's no other way. Living in Tokyo is tough. My camera got broken by some stranger last time, and now I hear he's in jail. I can't even find him to pay compensation, so I have to take on two jobs." Wenwen shrugged. "I'm doing delivery work because it suits me. After all, nobody runs faster than me!"

That's true. Your speed in reporting news is indeed unparalleled, but the quality really needs improvement. You're the kind of person who can find news when there is any and make it up when there isn't.

"Okay, that's all for now, I'm done signing."

After confirming that the delivery task was completed, the Tengu girl happily turned and left, her speed truly unmatched.

It's only because I know her that I can find her; otherwise, if the package breaks down, I wouldn't be able to find her later.

"Makase Kurisu? What did she send you?" The purple-haired, big-breasted killer hugged the boy from behind and asked curiously, while the image of the red-haired girl in the white coat appeared in his mind.

My relationship with her is just so-so, we're not very close, and I've never considered her a competitor.

"We'll have to open it and see to find out."

The boy shook his head and carefully opened the box to prevent damage to the contents.

As he continued his movements, the contents of the delivery box came into view of the two of them.

—A thick stack of experimental papers and a letter, along with a rather punk-style instrument.

The lower part, which serves as the main support, is a square base made of metal, while the upper part is a cylindrical part made of transparent glass tube, which connects the wiring and power supply equipment. At first glance, it looks impressive but incomprehensible.

"She said she was planning to come to Japan soon, and these were things she would need for academic forums and lectures. Since she didn't know anyone there, she chose my address and asked me to keep them safe for her."

After reading Makise Kurisu's letter to him, the boy explained, "It seems to be related to something about changes in the world line. It's written in a very confusing way that I can't understand it at all. I'm afraid only she herself knows the specifics."

After tidying up the things and placing them in the corner of the study, and making sure they wouldn't be damaged, the boy carried Saeko back to the bedroom, ready to continue his interrupted afternoon nap.

Naturally, no one noticed that the strange instrument behind them flickered inexplicably.

Chapter 2 Where did I come from? Is this still in China?

At night, Li Wei sat in front of his computer as usual, communicating with patients who had come to him for diagnosis.

Patient A: [Doctor, I've recently discovered that I seem to have some kind of special ability, like Spider-Man in America, where I can spray a milky white liquid, except the location is a little different—it's three inches below my navel. Also, it takes a while to prepare before I can spray it.]

"Which school do you go to? Don't you have sex education classes? Go buy a set of books on puberty right now and complete a course of treatment. Next!"

Patient B: [Young man, lately when I clean the library every day, I feel back pain, lack of energy, and even the energy to steal books... I mean, I don't have the energy to grow mushrooms anymore. What should I do?]

"Stop pretending, Marisa, I know it's you. In this situation, you should go to bed early, get up early, and get plenty of exercise. Also, reduce sexual activity to conserve your energy, and have a cup of tea before bed."

Patient B: [Is black tea okay? I feel a bit dehydrated the morning after drinking it.]

"Okay, have some more. Next one."

Patient C: [Doctor, I sought your help many years ago for my father's chronic illness and my sister's adolescent delusions. Now my father's chronic illness is cured, but my sister's adolescent delusions are getting worse. What should I do?]

"Is that so? She's still shouting 'Evil King's True Eye,' imagining her own eyes can be so captivating and mesmerizing?"

Patient C: [It's a little different. I let her read the book you sent before, and somehow, she kept thinking she had the Evil King's True Eye, and after thinking about it so much, she actually started emitting lasers!]

"...I'll give you a phone number. Tell her to go and register with Yukina Himeragi of the Exorcist Group. Next."

Patient D: [Doctor, help! My cat suddenly turned into a human this morning and wants to repay me! She says she wants to have kittens with me, and that it's a tradition of the cat demon clan, an arranged marriage from our ancestors.]

Li Wei glanced at the Himari on his knee, somewhat puzzled.

This is clearly a good thing, isn't it? Even if my own cat wanted to become human, it couldn't.

Patient D: [It's different, he's a male cat!]

"It's an arranged marriage, a matter of family tradition and matchmaker's words. As an outsider, it's not appropriate for me to interfere too much. Besides, I'm not a veterinarian, you've come to the wrong person. How about this, I'll give you the address of Kuzuogi Village and take him there for some further training. If that still doesn't work, I'm out of ideas."

After finishing all this, Li Wei finally closed his computer, stretched, and felt much more refreshed.

Great! My recent peaceful routine has been really wearing down my willpower. I need to go online and communicate with these humanoid creatures more often to realize that the world is not peaceful and that I must remain vigilant.

He adored these patients; they were all like mental patients, each one a unique individual. Through their discussions of their bizarre and varied ailments, his medical skills continuously improved.

Before getting up to take a shower and go to bed, the boy subconsciously glanced at Kazusa's house next door and noticed that the lights were still on.

The relationship between the two has eased slightly since the fiancée incident, but there has been a lack of substantial breakthroughs. They still need to take the initiative when the opportunity arises.

I wonder what she's doing now.

Lost in his thoughts, the boy carried Himari into the bathroom, preparing to wash up and go to bed.

……

And so, the next morning, Li Wei woke up on time, thanks to his biological clock, which he had developed over the years.

In a daze, he subconsciously reached out to touch Himari beside his pillow, only to find nothing there.

How strange. Usually, Himari clings to me every day and won't go far, but she's not here today? Could it be that she's like the cat that the patient had yesterday, turned into a person and is here to repay a debt of gratitude?

Thinking this, the boy opened his eyes and then froze.

"Hmm, an unfamiliar ceiling."

Gazing at the decorating style, so different from his own bedroom, the boy subconsciously uttered this remark.

Their home was rented and then purchased by Rin Tohsaka. It has a Japanese style overall, and with Li Wei's later modifications, it has a strong East Asian style.

The style that appears before us now leans towards Scandinavian minimalism, with a touch of softness, suggesting that the person in charge of the renovation was a woman.

Realizing something was wrong, Li Wei abruptly sat up in bed, cautiously observing his surroundings. Fortunately, no ferocious monsters appeared, nor did anyone squat beside him saying, "You're the best among this batch of new recruits."

I am in a very ordinary male room. Judging from the furniture and the stylish decorative paintings on the wall, the owner of this bedroom must be quite well-off.

Li Wei didn't consider himself a particularly strong expert, but there weren't many people who could teleport themselves to a completely unfamiliar place while he was sleeping without him noticing.

"It seems I've gotten myself into some strange incident again."

Li Wei wasn't flustered. In fact, it was abnormal that nothing had happened for more than a month. Now that strange things were happening, it was just part of his daily routine.

I took out my phone to call someone I knew to confirm the situation, but then I froze again—the phone next to the bed was a completely unfamiliar model, yet it was successfully unlocked via facial recognition.

I glanced at my contact list and noticed many familiar names were missing. I tried calling Liangyi from memory, but the number was disconnected.

"What's going on? Avi, aren't you getting up yet? You'll be late if you keep sleeping."

Just as Li Wei was lost in thought, soft footsteps sounded outside the bedroom, and then the door was pushed open. To the boy's surprise, someone he hadn't seen in a long time appeared before him.

"Sister Yaozi? Aren't you in Europe?"

Li Wei's vigilance largely dissipated, replaced by suspicion.

Since that incident two years ago when she and Sashiba stabbed themselves, Yoko-nee hasn't been home for almost a year.

"Huh? Although calling me that makes me sound young, it's a bit too impolite." The capable and beautiful woman glared at him, pretending to be angry, then quickly walked to the window, reached out and pinched the boy's cheek: "You should call me Mom."

Li Wei: "—!?!?"

What are you talking about, Yaozi? It's been so long since we last met, are you planning to do some erotic play?

Before he could ask his question, his eyes inadvertently fell on a family photo on the table. He looked like a middle school student, holding hands with Kazusa, while Yoko-nee hugged them both and smiled happily. His student ID was also next to them.

With his excellent eyesight, he immediately saw the words written on it: "Chiba Municipal Sobu High School, Touma Takeshi".

Li Wei froze completely.

"Avi, you're acting strange." Yoko touched her forehead with concern. "Are you sick? If you're not feeling well, ask the school for leave."

“I’m fine, Yao… Mom.” Li Wei’s smile was a little forced; he needed some time to accept the current situation. “I probably went to bed a little late last night, and I’m still a bit groggy.”

"Oh, I see. Then get up quickly, don't keep Kazusa waiting too long."

As she said this, the beautiful woman lifted the boy's face and gently kissed his forehead: "Do you want Mommy to help you get dressed? Avi has started to get shy since starting junior high~"

"..."

"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. If you don't get up, breakfast will get cold." With that, Touma Yoko cheerfully walked out of the bedroom and considerately closed the door behind her.

After she left, Li Wei lay back down on the bed, closed his eyes, and pondered deeply.

Maybe I'm dreaming right now. As long as I keep sleeping, I'll be back to normal when I open my eyes.

Isn't Sister Meryl just a dream demon? She's seen all sorts of tricks in dreams.

Thinking this, the boy pulled the covers over himself, preparing to take a nap—but that's a lie.

Leaping out of bed, Li Wei was fully awake.

Screw you, where did you come from? Is this still in China?

I want to go home!

Chapter 3: The homeroom teacher is the same person in every timeline.

As someone who frequently encounters abnormal phenomena, Li Wei quickly regained his composure.

There's no point in rushing when you encounter this kind of situation; in fact, it can cause problems with your thinking, and the more you do, the more mistakes you'll make.

A wise man remains unmoved even when Mount Tai collapses before him, and his eyes are not at ease when a deer runs past him on the left—of course, you could also say that the situation he is facing is too difficult, and he has no choice but to accept his fate.

In short, the boy should put on his school uniform and get ready for school as soon as possible, and then talk about any problems he might have.

Based on the current situation, I am not in Tokyo, but in Chiba City. The high school I attend is not Hakuou Academy, but a completely unfamiliar school called Chiba Municipal Soubu High School; I've never seen their uniform before.

He had a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

If I'm not mistaken, I've arrived in a parallel world, or rather, another timeline.

Here, I am also an orphan, but instead of being abandoned at the Sakata Kindergarten in Tokyo, I was adopted by Yoko-nee at some point and named Touma.
