“You can just call me Ryo, I’m granting you that privilege.” Yamada Ryo agreed, leaning on the table.

"Understood, Miss Hongxia, Miss Liang."

Ichi Hoshika patted the table, but immediately realized that the noise was too much to hear, so she coughed twice to attract the attention of the person in front of her.

"In short, you'll be an employee of Fanxing from now on. Make sure you remember your working hours."

"The Starlight Café opens for ticket sales at 5 p.m., but you can come anytime before then. It usually closes before the tram stops. The process is very simple; you'll understand once you come and take a look."

"If you have classes during the week, it won't affect your class schedule. Any other questions?"

“No, I think this time is perfect.” Sakurakoji Sai shook his head.

"Okay, that's good." Ijichi Seika nodded, but her gaze suddenly became somewhat puzzled as she looked at him hesitantly, "By the way, how old are you now? Are you a high school student?"

Ijichi Nijika and Yamada Ryo looked over curiously, also wanting to know the answer, since they couldn't really tell how old he was from his appearance.

"Hmm—more or less, except I'm not in school right now."

"Huh! Why?!"

"Oh, you said you just came back from overseas."

"No need for classes or exams, what a blessing."

The three people gave different reactions.

Well, that's about it.

Ichi Hoshika expressed her understanding but did not delve into the reasons behind it. Everyone has their own circumstances, and it is not something an adult should do to pry into things unnecessarily.

"That's settled then. You can start work tomorrow, is that alright?"

"Hmm, there shouldn't be any problem."

"..."

Sakurakoji stayed at the Starry Night until 10 o'clock, and after the performance ended, he helped everyone tidy up the instruments and equipment, and did a simple cleaning before leaving.

Although the work starts tomorrow, he's not really there for the salary. His main purpose is to leave a good impression on them and increase opportunities to interact.

As he stepped out of the narrow staircase and into the starry sky, Sakurakoji smiled.

He could feel that the pain he suffered from the strange illness had lessened by a tiny fraction. Although it was still very little, the change was undeniable, which convinced him that there was indeed a possibility that his body could be cured.

If things continue like this, one day he will be able to become a normal person!

After walking one street, he could no longer hold back.

"Haha, hahahaha..."

"Hahahaha! (Stephen Chow laughs)"

"Wuhu!"

"Oh yeah!"

"Aba Aba!"

"..."

At the same time, unsurprisingly.

"Are you crazy?! What the hell are you yelling about in the middle of the night?!"

"Get lost, you lunatic! If you make another sound, I'll kill you!"

Some residents on both sides couldn't hold back any longer and ran to their balconies to hurl insults at him.

Despite his insults, Sakurakoji Sai, who was skipping around in a great mood, was not angry.

She simply smiled and gave him two middle fingers, then turned and left gracefully as he grumbled and went downstairs.

the next day,

Whether it was because he came back late last night or because he was feeling better than usual, Sakurakoji Saisai slept in very late.

After a quick wash, he called Yiyu over and asked her to look up the names of all the high schools in Tokyo.

"Young master, do you want to go to school?"

Yashima Ichiyo's voice was somewhat surprised. You see, due to health issues, Sakurakoji Sai had never attended school since birth, and had always been taught by private tutors or by his excellent parents.

"Yes, I do have that plan." He didn't hide it and nodded in acknowledgment.

If we're talking about where the events in crossover anime worlds are most frequent, besides the fact that they mostly take place in Tokyo, they also mostly occur during high school.

Don't ask why, the answer is simply that Japanese high school students are invincible.

Academic genius, musical prodigy, writer, cook, detective, idol... If you don't have something to do, you're embarrassed to call yourself a Japanese high school student.

Through his interactions with Fanxing and her group last night, he had a basic idea that the solution to his problem was to interact with characters from various anime series. The more people he knew, the more effective it would be in resolving his symptoms.

It remains to be seen whether this effect will increase in tandem with the deepening of the relationship or bond; further research is needed to determine this.

He hoped so, otherwise, at yesterday's pace of progress, he feared he would need to meet several thousand people to completely rid himself of this clinging, parasitic symbiotic entity.

"That's wonderful! Master and Madam would be so happy to know!"

"But are you alright?"

While happy, Yi also expressed his concern, saying that it would be hilarious if he fainted halfway through class.

After hesitating for a while, Sakurakoji Sai decided to tell the truth. He had no need to hide anything from these elderly people in the mansion who were like family to him.

"I think I've found a solution to my health problem."

"Really?!" Yashima Ichiyo was so shocked that he couldn't control his voice and shouted it out loud.

"Yes, but further verification is needed." Sakurakoji Sai nodded. "However, it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Celebrate! We absolutely have to celebrate! There's a party at Sakura Mansion today!"

Yashima Ichi's eyes blazed with joy, his happiness overflowing, genuinely pleased with Sakurakoji's talent.

To her, he and Ya Shili were children she had watched grow up, no different from her own. She knew better than anyone how much heartache and suffering the kind master's family had endured because of the young master's strange illness. She saw it all and felt anxious for him.

But even the masters with extraordinary abilities couldn't find a solution, let alone a mere maid like her.

Now that she knows Caihua has found a clue, she is naturally happy for him.

She pursed her lips, smiled, and shook her head, letting her direct all the maids in the mansion to act busily. Sakurakoji then returned to her bedroom.

Before long, he was bombarded with phone calls and messages of condolence, mostly from Sakurakoji and members of the Ozura family.

Needless to say, it must have been Yi who told them.

More than two hours passed before he finally hung up the phone and collapsed wearily onto the soft bed.

"Phew~ I'm so tired."

Having overly concerned parents and family members can be a source of trouble.

His parents, needless to say, showered him with concern and inquired about the details, treating him with the same worry as a child who had been away for many years, even though he had only been gone for a few days.

After hearing about it, Da Zangyi also inquired about the specifics, but he only gave perfunctory answers, saying that there were preliminary clues and that further observation was needed.

The other party told him to let them know if he needed anything, and even offered to send him a residence in every ward of Tokyo after hearing that he had asked Yashima Ichiro to investigate the school, so that he could easily get to and from school. He quickly refused, saying that he wouldn't need so many residences.

Even his proud aunt, who had always had some reservations about him, made an unprecedented phone call to check on him, which surprised him.

Others, such as his great-aunt who was three generations older than him but a few months younger; his second uncle who lived in Europe; his aunt who was a designer active on the world stage; his great-grandfather who was over a hundred years old... all of them were busy people who were leaders in their respective fields, and they all expressed their joy.

After talking on the phone for several hours straight, constantly dealing with the other party, he also felt dizzy, lightheaded, and had a dry mouth.

But... it doesn't feel bad.

Sakura Koji smiled gently, without a trace of scheming. He thought that once he fully recovered, he would be able to enjoy all of this. His body was wrapped in high-quality velvet, and gradually, he drifted off to sleep again.

He didn't wake up again until 3 p.m., and after a quick tidy-up, he prepared to go out again.

Today is his first day at work, so he can't be late. He needs to make a good impression on his boss and colleagues.

"Young master, are you going out again?" a maid who was cleaning the courtyard asked.

"Yes, they'll be back around the same time as last night, so don't worry."

"That's possible, but what exactly do you want to do?"

Facing the maids' gazes, Sakurakoji revealed an inexplicably proud expression.

"Go to work!"

"Huh?" x N

……

At 4:30 pm, Sakurakoji Saiki once again stood at the entrance of the Starry Sky.

Unlike some socially anxious person who was too intimidated to enter, he boldly pushed open the door and strode inside.

On his way here, he chose to take the tram instead of having the driver take him.

Firstly, he wanted to prevent being seen by acquaintances, thus shattering his public image. Secondly, he wanted to replicate the lucky coincidence of meeting Yamada Ryo yesterday and see if he could run into some lone Little Red Riding Hoods again.

However, reality is not as coincidental as in movies and TV shows. Tokyo is so big that trying to bump into his target among tens of millions of people is somewhat like finding a needle in a haystack.

"Tsk, that's not how it's portrayed in the anime. Aren't Japan and Korea supposed to be like one village?"

"I don't even have this much luck. Am I even the main character?"

"But then again, if I were lucky, I wouldn't have suffered like this from birth."

If someone were to say they'd trade all his assets for a life of wealth and privilege, he could only chuckle. Only someone who's never experienced toothache would have such a naive idea. He could only say that once you've had a toothache, you learn your lesson.

"Good morning." As he descended the second staircase inside, Sakurakoji greeted everyone.

"Oh, good morning, that's pretty early." Ijichi Hoshika, who was playing on her phone, responded casually.

"Good morning~" PA, who was tuning the songs for the band that had signed up, turned around and greeted him with a smile.

She had already learned yesterday that Sakurakoji Sai would be working here, which made her extremely excited. In this dark and gloomy underground performance hall, had a human being who could talk to her finally come?

Good morning, Ms. PA.

As the last employee to arrive, Sakurakoji Saitaka consciously went to the bar and kitchen to begin today's preparations.

Although there wasn't much else to prepare, aside from a few simple drinks and cocktails, Starry Night offered almost no other food. The only machine behind the bar was a beverage machine.

Sakurakoji Sai was completely bewildered. "This is it? You dare call yourself a restaurant? Apologize to every restaurant in the world!"

He knew this simple task couldn't be too complicated, but its sheer simplicity still greatly surprised him. All it took was adding drinks and ice; anyone could do it.

His philosophy is to give his all in everything he does, because he cannot afford to waste a single moment of his time. Now that he has taken on this job, he cannot allow himself to do it carelessly.

There's no time today; we'll have to make some preparations later. Thinking this, he turned to look at Xingge.

"Boss, can we add something to our menu? It's not really appropriate to just have drinks, is it?"

"Huh?" Ijichi Hoshika looked at him in confusion. In this day and age, there are still chosen workers who give themselves extra tasks?

"That's possible, but just so you know, I can't cook."

"And what exactly are you going to add, saying you're going to add something?"

I almost forgot, Ichika Hoshika is apparently a complete culinary idiot.

"For example, desserts like ice cream, matcha parfaits, coffee, and milk tea?"

"That's not a problem, but are you sure it's okay?"
