A crossover anime! The life of a hero!

"It was delivered by courier; your dad probably bought it..."

As for this question, Hoshino Sakurako wasn't entirely sure whether her husband bought it or someone else sent it to her.

"Really."

Hoshino Gokawa, upon learning the origin of this object, gave a soft response but then remained silent, seemingly focusing his attention entirely on the dollhouse.

To the average person, this is just a normal dollhouse, but to him, it's not as simple as it seems.

Because in Hoshino Gokawa's perception, the dollhouse in front of him is actually a "living entity," but unlike a living entity in the traditional sense, this thing seems to have no intelligence but only instincts, and the dollhouse's current instinct seems to be to want to grow bigger.

As for the method to grow bigger, it seems to be to replace everything here. In other words, this dollhouse wants to "eat" Hoshino Gokawa and his parents, and then completely replace this space to achieve true growth.

But it's unclear whether this life form was newly born or sealed away during its growth; otherwise, given its characteristics, it should have already become a large house.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been sent to Hoshino Gokawa in such a small way. But it doesn't really matter to him, since he can crush something like this with just one finger.

Moreover, your expertise lies in space; where do you get the confidence to think you can cause trouble in space?

As for why the little figures inside move, it's because these little figures are nodes created by the dollhouse, and each node has an invisible line connecting it to ordinary people. Once the person corresponding to you dies, your soul will be "eaten".

Of course, this is not "eating" in the traditional sense. More accurately, you would become his puppet and be manipulated by him for who knows how long.

If you still don't understand, let me tell you the consequences. If an ordinary family is "eaten up," then the people who come out of here in the future will try to get rid of everyone around them and make them their own.

In other words, it's a terrifying human cloning program!

And in a sense, this is indeed very frightening, but unfortunately...

It seems it has targeted the wrong target this time.

"..."

Having roughly grasped the principle behind this thing through his perception and manipulation of space, Hoshino Gokawa casually severed its connection to the outside world.

Shortly after he cut it off, Hoshino Satoru discovered that a severed head had suddenly appeared on the dining table in the dollhouse. The head looked terrifying.

Then, under Hoshino Gogawa's watchful gaze, the head slowly rolled towards the other little people. The other little people seemed to notice that something had appeared in the room, and they all began to look around in panic.

As for why the little man acted on his own under Hoshino Gosakawa's watchful eye, it was because he deceived the dollhouse's senses; in fact, Hoshino Gosakawa saw it as a live stop-motion animation.

Just as the family of three inside was about to be killed, Hoshino Gokawa suddenly reached out, grabbed the little head, and put it back in its original position.

Then, as if suddenly remembering something fun, he secretly made an exact copy of the toy house and placed it on the table, replacing the real one, without his mother noticing.

He then casually told his mother what had happened and went back to his room.

As for what Hoshino Gokawa plans to do with this dollhouse, I'm sure you can all guess.

Chapter 186 Jotaro's Battle

"Then... let's put Jotaro in first."

Since this world has the manga JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, its figurines are also being sold in the market, and they are selling quite well. So, Hoshino Gokawa bought a figurine in just one minute, and it even has Star Platinum on the back.

Shortly after Hoshino Sagawa put it in, he saw Jotaro's figure gradually shrink to the same size as the other figures. Then, it walked step by step to the side of the house as if asking something. Not long after, Jotaro's figure noticed something and directly made Star Platinum punch through the wall and hit the head of the person on the shelf on the opposite wall.

If this were a real scene, it would definitely be spectacular, but unfortunately it's a stop-motion animation-like scene, so the broken walls look more like a toy block being knocked over to Hoshino Gokawa.

And because it's done in one continuous motion, slow-motion scenes from anime can be easily achieved here.

Then, just as the Jotaro figure was about to launch another attack, he suddenly noticed that the head he had just knocked away was gone, and at the same time he seemed to realize something and made a shout.

Then Hoshino Gokawa saw the head, which was very close to him, suddenly stop in mid-air. Then, when Jotaro turned around, he was surrounded and beaten by a large number of fists. In a short while, the head was smashed to pieces.

"That's all..."

Having witnessed all of this, Hoshino Satoru watched for a while longer to make sure there was no movement before taking out Jotaro's figure and examining it closely.

He was very curious about the figure's situation, its size, and most importantly, the reason for its actions, or more precisely, what the dollhouse used to dictate its actions.

After all, the dolls that went in weren't necessarily based on the character design, and the time-stopping ability that just appeared wasn't manifested in the dolls, so why could the Jotaro figure use it?

While Hoshino Gokawa was still pondering what was going on, he suddenly noticed something unusual about his figure and subconsciously looked down at it.

Then he saw that the Jotaro figure he was holding looked rather uncomfortable, but that's not the point! The point is that Star Platinum behind him seemed to be about to beat him up.

"Um?!"

Then, in the next moment, Hoshino Gokawa confirmed that his feeling was correct. The platinum star really did hit his cheek, but the force was completely different from what he was used to.

"Could it be... that only here do you possess the same power as your character?"

Hoshino Gosaka felt that the Jotaro figure was too weak to hit, so he grabbed it and put it in the dollhouse without letting go. Then he felt a force completely different from before, but even a punch that could shatter diamonds couldn't hurt Hoshino Gosaka.

"This is really... unusually interesting."

Although the dollhouse can't compare to his own in terms of scale, it's quite impressive in terms of its rules. To be honest, Hoshino Gokawa isn't sure what the upper limit of this thing is if it's allowed to develop. He even feels that it should be considered a strange thing that ran over from some other film set.

Of course, it's not that absolute, otherwise he would have been beaten to a pulp.

However, precisely because Hoshino Gogawa couldn't estimate the limits of this thing, he wouldn't put some exaggerated figures in to try. Otherwise, if he put something like Getter Robo in and it actually came true, there would definitely be trouble.

Even if his own power were completely gone outside the dollhouse, he could still turn the world upside down. Therefore, to be on the safe side, he wouldn't put any overly exaggerated figurines inside. If he were to put them in, it would only be those he could control.

In a sense, the dollhouse can even be called a world of houses.

As for how the previous head came about, Hoshino Gokawa wasn't entirely sure either, but not knowing didn't mean he had no guesses; it's just that these guesses needed some time to be confirmed.

So after seeing that there was no movement inside, Hoshino Gokawa closed the toy shop and did not take out the Jotaro figure.

Then it was dinnertime.

"Honey, did you buy this?"

While the three of them were having dinner at the restaurant, Hoshino Sakurako brought up the matter of the dollhouse.

"Which one do you mean?"

Since Hoshino Natsuhiko went straight to the dining table, he didn't pay much attention to the dollhouse on the living room table.

"That's the one! The recipient is you..."

Seeing that the other person looked slightly puzzled, Hoshino Sakurako pointed to the dollhouse not far away.

Following the direction the other person pointed, Hoshino Natsuhiko soon noticed the very conspicuous thing.

"Huh? Let me see!"

He didn't seem to remember it either, so he temporarily put down his chopsticks and went to examine the dollhouse closely.

Then, not long after...

"Oh! I remember now! A friend of mine found this abroad a few days ago and thought it was nice, so he gave it to me!"

Hoshino Natsuhiko finally remembered what it was and immediately showed a knowing look.

"Really……"

Upon hearing that the item had not been sent to the wrong person, Hoshino Sakurako immediately stopped worrying about the problem.

However, her lack of concern does not mean that Hoshino Gokawa is not overthinking it. He already knows the truth about this thing, so he remains suspicious of Hoshino Gokawa's friend who gave it to his father. After all, this thing could potentially kill someone if handled improperly.

However, at that moment, Hoshino Gokawa seemed to suddenly realize that something had changed, so he casually told his parents that he was full and hurriedly ran into his room.

"????"

The parents, who were unaware of the specifics, were confused and didn't understand what the other party was doing.

Meanwhile, inside the room -------------------------

"really……"

Having confirmed a certain conjecture, Hoshino Satoru saw a monster in the dollhouse that could rival Jotaro.

"The balance between good and evil! This is the same principle as the Jackie Chan Adventures universe! The stronger the righteous energy, the stronger the evil energy! And vice versa! But what determines this? Could it be that this dollhouse has the ability to know the character designs of the figures!"

Chapter 187 Changes

"Then what would happen if I took them all out?"

Just as the Jotaro figure was about to be slain, Hoshino Gokawa suddenly reached out and took out Jotaro and the other three miniature figures.

The result was that the monster that wanted to cause trouble suddenly stood there dumbfounded, staring at him with a very numb look.

"I see... You can't get out without external intervention."

Hoshino Gokawa casually placed the little figure he had taken out into a small box, then turned his attention back to the dollhouse in front of him, carefully observing it to see if there were any further changes.

As a result, Hoshino Gokawa saw the monster doll, which had lost its target, flitting around in the dollhouse for a while before disappearing. It seemed to have lost some kind of balance or perhaps it had lost the "motivation" to act because it had no target.

Of course, the monster's disappearance doesn't mean Hoshino Gokawa has to put the little man back. Although he wasn't entirely sure if what he had could be considered intelligent life, pointless persecution was unacceptable to him. So, Hoshino Gokawa later used the compensation given to him by the Kronians to buy a suitable item from an alien website.

"Mini World".

Of course, this "mini" is not the "mini" you're thinking of. This "mini" refers to a miniature world, somewhat similar to the gadget in Doraemon that shrinks when people enter the bottle opening, except that it's shaped like a house.

Hoshino Gokawa could actually make such props himself, as long as they have the ability to grow bigger or smaller.

"Then you will live here from now on..."

Hoshino Gokawa, who had just picked up the four little figures, placed them in the room enclosed by a round glass dome. He then noticed that these already small dolls had shrunk a little further.

As for asking these petty people for their opinions...

Although it's not very nice to say it like that, Hoshino Gokawa doesn't really think these can be considered intelligent beings. They're like clones that can't speak and only have their own set of rules for doing things.

More importantly, he wasn't sure if the three little people would change in the future, so to be on the safe side, it was better to lock them up somewhere.

As for whether they will develop their own thoughts in the future, that's something to consider later. In his opinion, these little people probably don't have their own thoughts right now.

As for the dollhouse, which could be considered an unusual item, Hoshino Gokawa stored it in a space he had created himself, just in case something went wrong when he wasn't home. So it was better to keep it with him to be on the safe side.

Then, in the blink of an eye, it was the next morning.

To be on the safe side, Hoshino Gokawa, having confirmed that nothing had happened yesterday, put a spatial barrier around the Mini World before going to school, because he was afraid that his mother might accidentally break it while cleaning the room, causing unnecessary trouble.

"Then I'm leaving."

"Be careful on the road! Wuchuan..."

After saying goodbye to his parents as always, Hoshino Gokawa headed towards the nearest train station, and unsurprisingly, he ran into Saiki Kusuo on the way and they traveled together.

During the journey, Hoshino Gokawa also told the other party about what happened to the dollhouse the day before.

Kusuo Saiki was also very surprised by this, as it was the first time he had ever heard of such a peculiar item.

"So, do you carry that dollhouse with you at all times now?"

Someone who doesn't know the facts wouldn't ask that question, and any normal person could see that there's nothing around the other person.

"I'll keep it in my space. Because there are too many uncertainties with this thing, it's better to carry it with me just to be safe. If something really happens, I can suppress it."

Hoshino Gogawa was very confident in his own abilities; at the very least, he didn't think that the Dollhouse, which hadn't yet grown up, could be that powerful.

However, it would be difficult to draw a conclusion if it were a fully developed one, since the upper limit of this thing is indeed not low.

"Is that so... I'd really like to see it for myself."

Kusuo Saiki, who had become curious about this thing, really wanted to see for himself how the dollhouse that Gosho Hoshino had mentioned actually brought the little people to life.

"Hmm... if you want to see, I'll find you a figure to try it out later."

Hoshino Gokawa, who was also still exploring this thing, didn't mind letting Saiki Kusuo try it out, hoping that he might discover other abilities of the dollhouse by chance.

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

"Um?!"

As soon as Hoshino Gokawa stepped into the classroom, he noticed some of his classmates looking at a certain seat with a rather strange expression.

Influenced by them, Hoshino Gokawa subconsciously turned his gaze to where they were looking, and then saw what had attracted their attention.

how to say……

Compared to their last meeting, Subaru Natsuki is now quite different in terms of both energy and physique; you could even say they are two different people.

"Subaru, what are you doing...?"

Hoshino Gokawa stared at the long red ribbon tied in Natsuki Subaru's hair and the clearly defined muscles on his arms, and for a moment he didn't know what to say. He could only let the other person explain it to him.

"Wuchuan, you're here! This is the result of my afternoon practice with Senior Xiaoxue yesterday! Pretty impressive, right!"

Upon seeing his friend Subaru Natsuki arrive, he immediately grinned and pushed his sleeves up to his shoulders to show off his muscles.
