There are so many geniuses in crossover anime! What's wrong with adding me?

A few minutes later, Mikasa, who arrived late, saw him looking somewhat withdrawn and asked him in confusion.

"No, it's nothing, I'm just having a slight existential crisis." Sakurakoji Saiki raised his head and greeted her with a forced smile: "Good morning, Hatsuka. Oh, and I love you."

"Huh?!" At the same time as her surprise, a piercing scream rang out from the classroom.

However, Mikasa Mikasa was not the seemingly aloof but actually honest Shiina Tatsuki. After a brief moment of confusion, she came to her senses.

"Ah~ speaking of which, today is April Fool's Day. Hmm, I love you too, Xiao Chaoyang!" She suddenly clapped her hands, then smiled and responded with the same tone and lines.

"Ah~ Seeing such a thrilling scene first thing in the morning, I can't take it anymore..."

"Even though it's an April Fool's joke, it would be great if it were real..."

"Miss Ogura and Master Hatsuka! Suki!"

"..."

A simple conversation can sometimes generate a significant response.

Sakurakoji glanced at the figure in front of her, probably also reflecting on why Misaka Hatsuka could react immediately and calmly, while she was so panicked and tricked like that.

Is it anger, or shame and embarrassment? Shiina Tatsuki's crimson earlobes will provide the answer.

……

After the four classes in the morning, and after having lunch with Mikasa Mikasa, Sakurakoji Sai announced something.

"Hey? You're not coming back this afternoon, Xiao Chaoyang?" Sanjiao Chuhua looked over in surprise.

"Well, I had some work to do this afternoon, so I'm heading back now." (This is a lie)

Sakurakoji lies without batting an eye, but who could guess that his real purpose is to plot the capture of wild Pokémon?

“I see. Then there’s nothing I can do.” Mikasa Hatsuka nodded in agreement. “These past two days, considering that I just started school, Mana has postponed the plan. But in a few days, I’ll probably be in the same boat as you.”

Have you talked to your teachers about it?

"As I said, the teachers at our school are very easy to talk to; as long as you have solid achievements, it's fine."

"Haha, that's true! Xiao Chaoyang, you have both achievements and good grades at school, so it should be easier for you than for me, right?"

"..."

While they were chatting in their seats, Shiina Tatsuki overheard their conversation and couldn't help but turn around and glance at her.

This guy actually left school early on the second day of the semester?

If she dares to leave early today, she'll dare to skip class tomorrow, and she'll dare to drop out the day after tomorrow... Is she even here to study?

And what about work-related matters? Is she, like Mitsumi Hatsuka, an idol within the agency? Given her looks, it's certainly possible.

"Then I'll be going now, see you tomorrow."

"Well, see you tomorrow!"

Seeing her stand up after ending the conversation, Shiina Tatsuki quickly stopped her slight head tilting.

Although her movements were small, they were of little use to Sakurakoji Saiki, who kept a close eye on her.

He leaned forward, moved his head to her ear, and continued to whisper, "See you tomorrow, Shiina-kun."

"!!!"

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the back door.

As I passed by Hachiman Kairin's seat behind me, I said goodbye to her as she was drinking juice and playing on her phone: "See you tomorrow, Hachiman-kun."

"Oh, goodbye," she replied, looking up at him in a flat tone.

Although she usually seems uninterested in anything and has a cold demeanor, she is actually very good at reading people and has a considerable ability to grasp the information around her.

She had been listening to their conversation while playing on her phone, so she wasn't surprised by Ogura Asahi's departure.

However, she didn't intend to go up and ask what kind of work she did. They weren't that close yet, and she wasn't really interested in knowing.

Sakurakoji's gaze swept over the orange juice in her hand, a slightly subtle feeling stirring within it.

I really don't understand. If you're using this as an energy source, do you want to lose weight or not?

Don't you eat protein powder and compressed biscuits every day? Although it's not easy to prepare at school, drinking this isn't a good choice either, is it?

However, considering that she doesn't seem to have any reservations about eating desserts in public, it seems that her standards for this are very flexible.

Without saying much, amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, he flicked the strands of hair that had fallen in front of him behind his head and stepped out of the space.

……

After changing his shoes and carrying his things, he walked through the sparsely populated square in front of the school gate, where only a few men in black were present. The shuttle bus was already parked in front of the gate.

He opened the door, got into the car, and left.

At this point, some people might ask, "What will happen to his homework if he leaves class early every day?"

All he could say was, "What is the homework?"

No one would think he would actually do his homework properly, right?

At Hanasakigawa, for students with excellent grades, it's no problem for them to not do homework or even take a long-term leave of absence, okay?

Fortunately, when the situation was explained, the teacher readily agreed, considering his grades and achievements. Otherwise, he might have had to learn from our glorious tradition of rowing small boats and resort to outside help.

As for whether career-oriented students like Misaka Hatsuka will do their homework later, he doesn't know—in any case, he doesn't plan to.

As the car drove from Shinjuku Ward to Setagaya Ward, where Shimokitazawa is located, he quickly changed his clothes in the car.

Going there so early is certainly not to work on the stars.

Instead, he wanted to prepare his plans in advance before Xiuhua High School let out. His investigation revealed that the other school had already started.

His conversation with Ichi Nijika yesterday made him realize that this matter could not be delayed any longer.

Before she finds new teammates, he must first bring the remaining two over. With each passing day, the chances of the band ending prematurely increase.

According to the original schedule, Ichi Nijika would not find Kita Ikuyo for another month. After playing for a few days, Kita would run away. While looking for a replacement, she would meet Goto Ichiri in the park. Kita would not return to the team for another week or two.

If this pace continues, the opportunity will be lost... no, it will definitely be lost, and Yamada will be in dire straits.

Therefore, he needs to find them within the next few days.

Therefore, he will be holding his first outdoor solo here today!

He picked up the red guitar that someone had brought from the chair next to him and casually strummed a few notes. Since no one had played it for a long time, the pitch had dropped a bit. He turned the knobs to adjust it and tightened the strings.

Even items worth millions of yen can develop various problems if they are not regularly maintained.

However, it's fine in other aspects. The smooth and shiny surface feels cool and refreshing to the touch, giving it a great texture, and the appearance is also quite stylish.

Speaking of prices, the most expensive instrument in the band is neither Ijichi Nijika's drum kit nor Yamada Ryo's bass.

Instead, it's those two guitars that Boqi's dad left behind, and that Yamada Ryo lent to Kita Ikuyo. Each one is worth over 40,000 RMB. Why is that?

Getting back to the main point,

In short, what could he do when they didn't know each other? In order not to seem too strange, he could only let them take the initiative to come to him.

The guitar is the easiest instrument to carry around in a band, so it's the most suitable one... Don't ask why we don't bring a bass, because nobody would want to listen to us play it anyway.

But if you think he'll just head straight to the entrance of Xiuhua High School and become an eye-catching street performer to solicit customers, you're seriously underestimating him.

Today he won't go to Xiuhua's gate, or even the vicinity. We'll see what he does later; he has his own methods!

Volume 1: Daily Life of Attracting Bees and Butterflies: Chapter 163 Good luck! Oh no, guitarist!

The car followed its usual route and arrived at Shimokitazawa.

Shuka High School and Shimokitazawa High School are both located around Shimokitazawa. Otherwise, as a weakened version of the retired Tokyo spirit, Shimokitazawa Archangel Ijichi Nijika, it would have been impossible for him to meet them so easily.

However, the two schools are at different distances from the stars. Shimokitazawa High School is closer, while as for Shuka High School—strictly speaking, whether it is even located in Shimokitazawa is questionable.

So the question is, which of the two will be his target today?

Upon arriving at Shimokitazawa, he didn't get off the bus immediately. After all, it was still early before school let out, and getting off would only make him a mascot for passersby to admire.

He lay back in his chair, took out an eye mask and put it on, preparing to take a nap to conserve his energy for the operation later that night.

……

After more than an hour,

At Yashima Ichiyo's call, Sakurakoji finally lifted his blindfold, stood up with a soft groan, and stretched.

He took out his work mask, put it on, and got off the car with his guitar and amplifier, making an unseemly smacking sound as he got off.

Before waking him up, Yashima had already driven the car to his designated location.

It was around 3 p.m., still some time before high school let out. If the other person had any activities, parties, or joined school clubs, then it would be even earlier before they went home.

However, none of these problems apply to his goals today.

If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to see her in about half an hour.

He carried his guitar and arrived at a small park a five-minute walk from the station—if it could even be considered a park.

Sometimes he really misses the parks in China and the United States. Even in first-tier cities, parks aren't this small. It just shows that land in Tokyo is too scarce.

Even in anime, he hadn't seen many large background parks.

However, it is necessary to clarify that this is not the park where Ichika Ichi first met Ichiri Goto, but a small park between Shuka and Tohokusawa Station.

Many people are unfamiliar with Tohoku Sawa Station, which is understandable, since it was never mentioned in the original work and can only be deduced from some clues.

The reason he came here is because of our Miss Goto Ichiri's daily route to school.

Many people know that Nijika, Ryo, and Kita's homes are near Shimokitazawa, which is very close to the school, but Pochi's home is far away from the school.

Because she wanted to leave her hometown and go to a high school where no one knew her to start a new life (she thought she could).

Hey, why does this script look so familiar? It feels like I've seen it on so many different people. Is it just his imagination?

In short, students with good memories should remember that it takes a full two hours to get from her home to school one way!

Even office workers in big cities don't have such an exaggerated commute time!

In order to go to school, they have to get up at five o'clock every morning, a level of hardship comparable to that of high school students in some places.

However, most people only know this much information. But for someone like him who focuses on every frame, he clearly remembers that in the first episode of the anime, it was clearly shown that the name of the school in the background of her junior high school graduation photo with her family was: Yokohama Municipal Nishi Rin Junior High School.

That's right, her home isn't in Tokyo at all, but in Yokohama.

If you're unsure where Yokohama is, you should remember that earlier, when he reminded Izare Jinna of the "Shin-Kawasaki" station, he mentioned it to prevent her from missing her stop on the first day.

Izare Rina thought that the next stop after Shin-Kawasaki would be Kawasaki, but that wasn't actually the case, because the next stop was Yokohama, the hometown of Goto Ichiri.

In other words, Yokohama is located further from Tokyo than Kawasaki.

Not to mention that after getting off at Yokohama Station on the JR line, she still had to take the KK-Keikyu Main Line for a while to get off at Kanazawa Hachikage Station.

That place was practically a stone's throw away from Fujisawa City, the location of a target he had booked two months prior.

It's much farther away than Chiba City, where the Second Miss and Jing Ke'ai live.

Thinking about this, Sakurakoji even admired her talent.

As expected of Boqi, she easily accomplished what others couldn't. With such perseverance, what can't she achieve at the top?

No wonder he reached a professional level after only three years of guitar practice. Besides talent, his hard work and perseverance are also essential.

In summary, Goto Ichiri's journey from home to school consists of the following three segments:

First step: Walk to Kanazawa Hachikage Station, board the KK Keikyu Main Line and arrive at Yokohama Station;

Second segment: Take the JR Shonan-Shinjuku Line from Yokohama Station to Shinjuku Station;

The third step: Take the OH-Odakyu Line from Shinjuku Station to Tohokuzawa Station, and then walk to Shuka High School.

(Goto Ichiri: I'm so excited!)

So where he is now is the first of three segments of her journey home from Xiuhua, the only way she can walk to Dongbeize Station.
