A crossover anime! The life of a hero!

In other words, it means making the other person do manual labor, since he has no other decent abilities besides physical strength.

As for Canary and Ishi, they went outside to buy things the orphanage would need, since this place would be their home in the future.

Bah!Bah!Bah!

As he forcefully shoved the pillars into the ground, Izayoi Sakamaki seemed to be in a good mood, because the corners of his mouth were turned up.

"So the pyramids from the other day were actually destroyed by the two of you."

"Yeah... Kusuo was scared by the dung beetle hiding at the bottom of the pyramid, so he accidentally unleashed his superpower and destroyed the place." While Kusuo was transporting raw materials, Hoshino Gokawa bombarded Izayoi with dirt on him.

"Ha...ha...this is really interesting!" Even Izayoi Sakamaki, who had never expected that the expressionless face would be afraid of insects, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"..." At the same time, Saiki Kusuo, who happened to appear behind Hoshino Gokawa, looked at the two of them with a "dark" face, and even wondered if he should take out the memory eraser and give each of them a jolt in the head.

"Hey! You two! I heard you!"

A voice that sounded somewhat unfriendly suddenly appeared in their minds.

"Oh dear... the person involved heard it."

As he spoke, Hoshino Gokawa turned to look at Saiki Kusuo, who was standing behind him, taking out the raw materials from his spatial ring bit by bit.

"Speaking of which, when did you two meet?" Izayoi Sakamaki, who was planting the last pillar in the ground, suddenly became curious about how they met.

"Well... I've known him since first grade. It all started when I beat up all the school's troublemakers and sent them to the hospital. To be honest, it caused quite a stir back then..."

Hoshino Gokawa, having heard that the other party wanted to know how he met Saiki Kusuo, had no intention of hiding anything, so he told the other party about the situation at the time.

Upon hearing him mention Saiki Kusuo, he couldn't help but fall into his past memories, because that was the first time he had met a superhuman other than himself.

However, this superpowered being should probably be called the human form of "Ultraman" now.

After a while ------------------------------

"I see..." Izayoi Sakamaki, who knew exactly how they met, was quite moved. In his opinion, this way of meeting was pretty great, and it had a lot of story to it.

"Speaking of which, Izayoi, how did you and Canary meet?" Now that Hoshino Gokawa had finished speaking, it was time to turn to Izayoi Sakamaki, especially since he was also curious about what role this unknown person played in the problem.

"A couple of years ago, I made a lot of money to play a game, but Canary cracked it in the end, and that's when I started following her." Izayoi Sakamaki didn't say what game it was, probably thinking that if the two of them knew about it, they would think he was very childish.

"Is that so!" Hoshino Gokawa wasn't very interested in what game he was talking about, and besides, judging from the other party's expression, he probably didn't want to say, so he simply didn't ask.

However, in Hoshino Gokawa's view, the relationship between Izayoi Sakamaki and Kanaria was more like that of close friends than adoption.

"Everyone! How's it going?!" Canary, carrying a bag in each hand, returned just then.

"The foundation is already laid. Now it's up to you, Miss Canary, how you plan to build this house." Hoshino Gokawa stood up from the bench, slightly twisted his shoulders, and turned to her to explain the current situation.

"Is that so..." Upon hearing this, the canary subconsciously glanced at the foundation they had built.

Then she fell silent.

how to say……

It's good, but isn't it a bit too much and too deep?

People who don't know the situation might think you're planning to build a palace.

But she couldn't say it out loud, after all, it was the result of the three of them's "good intentions" (no, it's just that they simply didn't have any common sense about the scale of the foundation).

"Never mind, let's call them to eat first..."

Thinking of this, Canary took a table out of her spatial ring and began to invite the three teenagers over for dinner.

Five minutes later--------------------------------

"This is a strange experience." After eating the chicken leg, bone and all, he subconsciously shared his thoughts with the other four, watching the passersby walk by who seemed oblivious to what was happening.

"Hmm... I kind of think so too." She looked up at the sun in the sky, then looked down at Saiki Kusuo sitting at the table in front of her, and after thinking for a moment, she agreed.

"Really?" Having spent the last few years wandering abroad, living a life of hardship and sleeping rough, Izayoi Sakamaki didn't feel much about this, after all, they had experienced even more bizarre dining scenarios.

“Hmm…” Hoshino Gokawa nodded slightly, then turned to Canary and asked her how she planned to build the welfare home here.

“I’ve already planned all of this.” With that, Canary took out five blueprints from the spatial ring and handed four of them to them, including Ishi, even though he couldn’t be of much help in this regard.

“Hmm…” Hoshino Gokawa took the blueprint from his hand, unfolded it, and examined it carefully. As if he had discovered something, he turned his head slightly to look at the foundation they had laid.

"...How about we build a few more?"

Chapter Fifty-Eight: The House is Completed

afternoon---------------------------

"Hmph...hmph...I'm a painter, and I'm very skilled at painting. I'm going to paint that new house even more beautifully..."

As Hoshino Satoru manipulated the paint to float out of the paint bucket and painted the walls white, he sang some songs that sounded quite childlike.

"He's interested in nursery rhymes?!" Sakamaki Izayoi, who was covering the bricks with cement, subconsciously turned his head to Saiki Kusuo, who was using telekinesis to build bricks onto the foundation, after hearing the lyrics sung by Hoshino Gokawa.

"...This is the first time I've heard this either." It was also the first time that Kusuo Saiki had heard such a childlike song from Gosho Hoshino.

And most importantly, he had never heard a song similar to it in music class.

Regardless of what these two are thinking, Hoshino Gokawa seems to be in a very good mood right now, as if he is immersed in his own world.

As for Canary and Ishi, they were moving things into the rooms that had already been built. At the very least, they had to get their three bedrooms ready first, otherwise they wouldn't know where to sleep tonight.

Then, as evening approached, the appearance of the orphanage began to take shape in the eyes of the five of them.

A two-meter-high wall enclosed the large, five-story building inside, which resembled a school building.

The current allocation method is roughly as follows:

The first floor serves as a reception area and a play area for children, including places like the library.

The second floor is used for dining and cooking.

The third floor is probably used for washing clothes.

As for the fourth and fifth floors, they were all used as bedrooms.

……

"Wow! This looks really good..." Hoshino Gokawa, who was standing at the door and looked up at the building inside, couldn't help but exclaim in excitement. After all, he had put a lot of effort into building it!

“Hmm…” Saiki Kusuo, who was standing to the side, also nodded, because this was the first time he had created such a huge building.

The sense of accomplishment he gained from this was unparalleled; Saiki Kusuo even felt that it was the only meaningful thing he did this summer.

“It’s pretty good…” Izayoi Sakamaki chimed in after them, because this place would be her, Kanaria’s, and Ishi’s home from now on.

"Goku, Kusuo, thank you so much for your help today." After turning her gaze away from the large building, Canary solemnly thanked them.

"Thank you...thank you..." Ishi, who had only managed to speak a few words of Japanese today, also subconsciously bowed his head to thank them after seeing the canary.

Although Ishi didn't understand their language very well, he could roughly figure out what they were doing just from their expressions and gestures.

"You're welcome... It's what we should do." Although the words were pronounced a little haltingly, Hoshino Gokawa eventually understood what the other person meant.

However, that's not the main point right now. It's because it's already getting dark, and Hoshino Gokawa and Saiki Kusuo should go home for dinner.

"Then we'll be going now, and we'll come see you again tomorrow."

"Ok!"

After saying goodbye to them, Hoshino Gokawa and Saiki Kusuo left the orphanage they had built themselves. Although it was mostly done, they still needed to find someone else to install things like electrical wires and internet cables. It would take them a long time to completely finish the orphanage.

Fortunately, the canary is rich, so all these problems can be solved. As for where the money comes from... that's a bit of an inconvenient question to answer.

All you need to know is that she took it without any psychological burden.

night------------------------------------

"Smack... smack..." Hoshino Gokawa, back at his own dining table, ate with great relish.

"Gokawa, what have you been doing all day?" Hoshino Natsuhiko, who was sitting on the left side of the dining table wondering why his son was coming home later than him, couldn't help but ask him.

"I'm helping out at a welfare home that hasn't yet opened to the public." Hoshino Gokawa, who had no intention of hiding anything when his father asked him about it, told him directly.

Besides, it's not like I'll never go again after just one visit. Even if I choose to keep it a secret, my parents will probably find out soon anyway.

After all, how could they not notice you mysteriously disappearing for an entire day every day of your rest, not even coming back for lunch?

"Oh! Really!" Upon hearing this news, the parents looked at Hoshino Satoru with surprise, who had a calm expression and was chewing food.

"Yes... I had lunch there. Oh! And also! Mom and Dad, do you have anything you don't need? If so, please pack it for me so I can take it with me when I go to the orphanage tomorrow."

Hoshino Gokawa wasn't sure if his family had any other useless things, and it wouldn't be right to ask without knowing, so he asked his parents.

"Useless stuff... Let me think..."

If we're talking about who knows this house best, then without a doubt it's Hoshino Sakurako. She knows exactly where every old item is.

"I've got it! I remember winning a vacuum cleaner in a raffle last year, but I put it in the storage room because I didn't have enough time to use it. I'll find it in a bit."

“Okay, Mom…” Hoshino Gokawa nodded slightly.

then-------------------------------

"Gokawa, can you tell Dad what kind of orphanage it is? Dad is a little curious!" Hoshino Natsuhiko was very curious about the orphanage that his son had chosen to help.

Of course, another reason was that he wanted to see if there was anything fishy about the welfare home. After all, some welfare homes may appear to be helping society, but in reality, they might be helping wealthy people launder money.

Hoshino Natsuhiko felt that his son might not have considered this situation, so he wanted to go along and see for himself to make sure that Hoshino Gogawa wouldn't be deceived.

"That's fine! If you want to come, Dad, you'll have to wait a few more days because there are still many things inside the orphanage that aren't ready yet. If you go now, you might find that it doesn't match your expectations." Considering that he, Saiki Kusuo, and Izayoi Sakamaki would have to do some heavy work in the next few days, he didn't really want his father to come.

After all, if the other party comes to visit in the next few days, they will probably discover the secrets of the other people, and then things will be a bit difficult to handle.

Chapter Fifty-Nine: Herring Cans

Day 5 of summer vacation -----------------------------

"Mom! I'm taking my things now!" Hoshino Gokawa, carrying a vacuum cleaner in his left hand and a bag of comic books and light novels in his right, said goodbye to his mother and went out.

"Be careful on the road! And... say hello to everyone at the orphanage for Mom!" Before her son left, Hoshino Sakura still habitually gave him this reminder.

“Okay, Mom…” He readily agreed and headed to the orphanage with his mother’s greetings. As he turned a corner, he bumped into Saiki Kusuo, who was also carrying things and heading to the orphanage.

But how to say it...

Normally, a beautiful young woman shouldn't appear around the corner, so why is there a pink-clad, expressionless superpowered individual instead?

"Morning!"

"morning……"

The two greeted each other before starting to chat.

"I brought a vacuum cleaner and some comic books that I no longer read from home." As he spoke, Hoshino Gokawa showed the other person what he was holding.

“Mine is this… a coffee pudding maker.” Saiki Kusuo raised his hand and showed Hoshino Satoru what looked like a toy.

"!!!!!!!" As expected, he was shocked.

Anyone familiar with Kusuo Saiki's backstory knows that his favorite food is coffee pudding, and in his eyes, a machine that can make coffee pudding is like a sacred object of the god of coffee pudding.

To be honest, Hoshino Gokawa never expected that he would give away something so precious, but this also shows how much Saiki Kusuo cares about the orphanage.

"I think it's very unfortunate to live a life without ever having tasted coffee pudding, so I wanted to bring this machine that can continuously produce coffee pudding to the children in the welfare home, and only in this way can their lives become complete!" Kusuo Saiki's words were quite passionate, and someone who didn't know what coffee pudding was might really be inspired by them.

However, to Hoshino Gokawa, it sounded a bit awkward.

Because these words really sound...

That's so cringeworthy! No wonder it's a country where everyone has a cringeworthy spirit!

Although he had tried coffee pudding and it was indeed quite good, it didn't warrant the fanaticism that Saiki Kusuo had. He wondered what exactly caused the other man's obsession.

Did he fall in love with it after trying it by chance, or did something or someone deeply move him and make him like it, or were some incredibly catchy advertising slogans that sparked Saiki Kusuo's desire to try it?

In short, Kusuo Saiki really loves coffee pudding, to an extreme degree.

"Speaking of which, don't you have any particular favorite foods...?"

"Me? Hmm... I'm alright. I'm not that picky. As long as the food looks good and doesn't taste too bad, I can accept it. My favorite dish hasn't appeared yet."

However, there is one thing I'd like to try..." At this moment, Hoshino Gokawa's mind conjured up a can of food that represented the ultimate item from his past life.

"What is it?" Upon hearing this, Kusuo Saiki couldn't help but feel curious.

“Fish! Canned! Food!” Hoshino Gogawa turned his head and uttered the word "food" as if it were from an abyss.
