A crossover anime! The life of a hero!

"Wang! Wang! Wang!"

Perhaps attracted by what he was holding or by him as a person, a black dog in the gate of a nearby villa suddenly put its paws on the gate and began barking wildly at Hoshino Gokawa, looking as arrogant as could be.

If it were an ordinary child, they would probably be frightened by this sudden scene, but unfortunately, Hoshino Gokawa is not an ordinary child.

and so……

Shake... shake...

Suddenly intrigued, Hoshino Satoru took a few steps to the fence gate and waved the foxtail grass in front of the big black dog's nose.

"Wang! Wang! Wang!"

At first, there was no reaction, but after it happened several times, the big black dog could no longer bear the itching on its nose and instinctively sneezed.

"Hmph..." Hoshino Gokawa chuckled when he saw it sneeze, then casually tossed the foxtail grass he had just been holding into a flower bed and continued walking toward the department store.

"Wang! Wang! Wang!"

Once it calmed down, the big black dog, thinking that the two-legged creature was scared, continued to bark wildly at his back a few more times, only stopping when he had completely disappeared from sight.

Tread...tread...

Upon reaching the intersection and seeing that the light was red, Hoshino Gokawa instinctively stopped and waited with the passersby for the green light to illuminate.

But what was that saying again?

Life is always full of surprises!

"Huh?!" Hoshino Gokawa, who was still waiting, suddenly noticed a large truck coming from the right. After noticing that the path seemed a bit off, he subconsciously shifted his gaze to the driver's seat.

Then he saw the driver lying on the steering wheel, completely unresponsive.

"Alright..." Knowing that if he didn't take action, this place would turn into a bloody wasteland, Hoshino Gokawa stopped the truck in place without even raising his hand, and you didn't even hear the sound of his foot stepping on the brakes.

"Beep...beep..."

The sudden stop of the truck startled the drivers of the cars following behind it. After regaining their senses, they honked their horns on their steering wheels several times, as if expressing their dissatisfaction with the truck in front.

Passersby who also noticed the situation turned their curious gazes toward the scene, seemingly wanting to know what had happened.

Tread...tread...

Then, Hoshino Gokawa walked out from the crowd and quickly walked to the truck under their gaze. Without anyone noticing, he broke the lock on the door and then opened the door and carried the truck driver out.

As for the time it takes...

Less than ten seconds!

The traffic police officer, who had finally noticed something amiss from a distance, notified his colleague who was on duty with him that day, and immediately ran towards the scene, shouting:

"Give way! Give way!"

Not long after, the traffic policeman squeezed into the center of the crowd and saw a teenager calling 119 with a phone that was clearly not his.

"What's going on?!" Looking at the middle-aged man lying on the ground and the teenager standing to the side making a phone call, the traffic police were momentarily confused about the situation.

"Officer, I just saw him slumped over the steering wheel, not moving at all. I thought it might be because of some health problem, so I went over and helped him out of the car." Hoshino Gokawa still showed the proper courtesy to people older than himself, but all of this was on the premise that the other party was not a bad person.

If that's the case, then I won't give the other party a friendly look.

"I see! Then leave the rest to me!" After understanding the situation, the young traffic policeman nodded to the boy and indicated that he could leave immediately, as they would handle the rest.

"Okay..." Hoshino Gokawa had no objection to this reply and turned to walk out of the crowd. He put the cell phone he had taken earlier back on the driver.

Tread...tread...

At the same time, when people noticed the boy who had performed the righteous act walking towards them, those around them instinctively made way for him.

And praise and such...

Sorry! No! After all, not everyone is a socialite who can say those incredibly awkward things to a stranger!

Even if everyone in this country has a hidden inner child.

Then a while later-----------------------------------

Unaffected by the little incident, Hoshino Gokawa finally arrived at the shopping mall, the same place he had visited with Saiki Kusuo before, and the number of people was not much different from the last time he came.

“Hmm…” Hoshino Gokawa, who had just arrived at a notice board, raised his head slightly and looked at the floor plan on it.

"...Let's go take a look on the third floor." Since he usually buys comic books and light novels from bookstores outside, Hoshino Gokawa didn't know where the bookstores in the mall were located, so he planned to just look around and see if he could find them.

Then Hoshino Gokawa slowly ascended the escalator and finally arrived at the third floor of the large shopping mall.

"This seems to be the place..." After noticing that several high school students taller than him were carrying comic books as they passed by, Hoshino Gokawa felt that he had come to the right place.

So he walked in the direction the male high school students had come from, and soon Hoshino Gokawa arrived at a very large bookstore.

"I never expected there to be a branch of Shinazugawa here!"

Chapter Forty: A New Look

"..." After looking at the signboard outside for a few seconds, Hoshino Gokawa turned his attention back to the store.

What came into his view were rows of large shelves filled with comic books, light novels and other miscellaneous books, and by the window there were eight neat small tables and four long tables that were put together in pairs.

As for the environment... it's pretty good!

At the very least, I like the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere.

However, he won't just sit and watch today. After all, he promised his mother he would take a stroll for a while, so he naturally can't go back too late.

Step...step...

Hoshino Satoru didn't attract much attention when he walked into the Shinazugawa Bookstore. After all, who would bother looking at a boy for no reason? Of course, this didn't include the bookstore staff.

Because he reads a wide variety of books, Hoshino Gokawa basically browses through every section, picking up books with interesting titles or covers to take a look.

Although some of the book titles sound a bit cliché, at least to my own eyes, there's no denying that the content inside is quite excellent.

However, in terms of variety, it is far inferior to the online novels of my previous life. It is truly as rumored online that Eastern online novels are ten years ahead of the outside world.

"Huh?!" Hoshino Gokawa, who was browsing in the bookstore, suddenly felt that something was wrong with the book in his hand, so he subconsciously looked up at the notice board hanging on the bookshelf to his right.

18+!

"..." Realizing that he had walked into the adult section, Hoshino Gokawa silently put the comic book back in his hand, and then, pretending not to care about the strange looks from the adults next to him, took the nine books he had just picked up and went to the counter to pay.

"Hello, the total is 4865 yen!"

"Here you go!" Hoshino Gokawa took out a 5,000 yen bill from his pocket and handed it to the shop assistant.

"Okay! Here's your change: 135 yen! Please take it! Here's your receipt!"

"Thank you..." Hoshino Gokawa first took the money and put it back in his pocket before picking up the bag next to him and walking out.

"Walk slowly, welcome to visit next time."

It seems that this is standard practice in every store.

On the way back, Hoshino Gokawa didn't encounter any trouble this time, so he arrived home safely.

As for his plans after returning home, besides reading the books he bought, he'll most likely just watch TV in the living room. After all, he and Saiki Kusuo live in this city, so how could anything major happen?

Therefore, compared to other cities, this place is quite peaceful both day and night. Moreover, due to Hoshino Gokawa's self-disclosure of part of his identity, the city's security has gradually improved without the knowledge of ordinary people.

at the same time---------------------------

"This is really outrageous!" Jinguji Ayame, who finally learned some information from the Interstellar Friendship and Cooperation Department today, didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

While the other party was indeed the third category as they had anticipated, wasn't the level a bit too high?

Aliens weren't enough! They even sent someone from another universe!

If that opponent goes berserk, who on this planet can stop them?! Jinguji Ayame, for one, can't think of anyone who could!

Of course, this isn't all bad news. At the very least, scientists are very happy because the existence of that being proves the diversity of the universe, which can provide them with countless new ideas.

As for the final arrangements made by the leadership...

It's very simple! We can give them whatever they want! Except for this country!

However, the focus this time is not on that, but rather on the fact that, due to the other party's reasons, the government plans to add new regulations to the law, the content of which is related to school bullying.

Speaking of this, Jinguji Ayame couldn't help but say something: you just can't understand the thought process of aliens.

Then time slowly passed until next Monday, the day the new regulations would take effect.

morning---------------------------

"Students, the government has recently introduced new campus policies. If you see any of the following behaviors, please report them to your teacher immediately." With that, Mr. Inoue distributed the brochures that the school had given them that day to all the students in the audience.

The content above is roughly about bullying, but unlike before, it highlights a very terrifying consequence in red.

That means students who continue to engage in bullying-related behaviors will be subject to mandatory government supervision and sent to special schools for education, somewhat similar to internet addiction rehabilitation schools in the past.

“Hmm…” Hoshino Gogawa raised his eyebrows as he looked at the contents, because it gave him a sense of déjà vu.

Overall, however, this regulation is not bad. At least it can curb bullying to a large extent, since no normal student would want to be forced to go there.

The relevant prosecutorial efforts need to be stronger; if the wrong student is sent to the wrong school, it could ruin their life.

"What do you think of these?" Hoshino Gokawa, holding the brochure in his hand, subconsciously turned to look at Saiki Kusuo beside him.

"Hmm...it seems like this will be much better than the previous air quality policy." He seemed quite satisfied with it as well.

at the same time--------------------------------

"Madam! I must inform you that your child will be under our care from now on until he has rid himself of all his bad habits!" After handing the white notice to the mother, an official who had come to the door signaled to the others to help the delinquent high school student into the car.

"?!?!" The mother who received the notice from the other party was a little confused. She was confused about what had happened and why the authorities were suddenly coming to her door to take her son away.

Of course, this is also considered lucky in a way, at least he can still get into a supervised school.

If the circumstances are serious, then I'm sorry, I'll send you straight to prison; you won't even need to go through the juvenile detention process.

Similar scenarios are playing out simultaneously across the country today, with each city receiving at least three buses, and in some cases as many as ten.

However, not all bullies can get in, since there are quite a few rich and powerful people among them.

Even so, this still manages to eliminate a large portion of the bullies, which is already quite good for the victims.

As for the fate of the students who were sent to those schools...

It can only be said that they have to suffer a lot before they realize just how bad they were before.

Chapter 41 Telephone

"Mr. Ito, could you please explain in detail the series of policies the government has recently issued regarding school bullying?" After speaking, a very beautiful female host on the television subconsciously turned her head to look at the guest invited today.

“I would be delighted, Ms. Nishikiori. But first! You must take a look at this set of data I have here.” With that, Mr. Ito held up a small whiteboard that he had just placed on the table, and then, under the watchful eyes of all the audience and television staff, began to explain the meaning of each set of data.

"According to incomplete statistics, there were 284,545 cases of school bullying in primary schools last year alone!"

"Wow!" All the viewers watching the show, as well as the staff of the TV station, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, because the number was truly beyond their imagination.

"Wait! Mr. Ito! Did you just say that this data only includes elementary school students?!"

"Yes! Miss Nishikiori! This is only for elementary school! The number of junior high and high school students is 58,101 and 18,382 respectively."

To be honest, I didn't expect there to be more bullying incidents in elementary school than in junior high and high school combined. Although he already knew this, he still couldn't help but be amazed by the data when he said it aloud.

Then, for the rest of the evening, the other party focused on the reasons for the bullying incident and explained the purpose of the policies issued by the government.

Meanwhile, in front of the television at Hoshino Satoru's house...

"I never imagined that school bullying was this serious!" Hoshino Natsuhiko, sitting on the sofa, showed a rare expression of astonishment, and even couldn't help but recall his own past when he was young.

"You know, when I was in school, you could hardly ever see things like this! Because if our teachers found out, they would give them a severe scolding, since the government hadn't yet issued any regulations prohibiting corporal punishment of students back then."

"Speaking of this, I'm reminded of the first time we met. You were standing outside the classroom with a bucket of water hanging from each of your hands and one foot."

"I don't know if you did it intentionally or unintentionally at that time, but when I happened to come over, you lost your balance and knocked over the bucket of water that was hanging on your right foot..." Hoshino Sakurako, who was also thinking about her high school days, couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh at her husband.

"Ah... this..." Hoshino Natsuhiko seemed a little embarrassed after hearing what the other person said, so he unconsciously put his hand on his head and scratched it.

"..." Hoshino Gokawa, who was listening to his parents' stories about their student days, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This kind of plot development was exactly like a youth campus anime. It turned out that his own dad was also one of the people who were jealous.

Jingle bell…jingle bell…

But just then the phone rang in the living room.

"I'll answer it..." Considering that his parents were currently in the midst of their long-term relationship, and in order not to disturb them, Hoshino Gokawa chose to answer the phone for them.
