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

"It could also be a box that contained a Buddha statue!"

"If that's what you mean, I'd guess it's the box that holds the game console!"

"You two... I guess you're speakers."

"Hey, could it be an oven?"

Ebizuka remained silent. The size and shape of the thing in the corner were very familiar to her, and she had a vague guess in her mind, but... how could this be?

"Pfft~ Unfortunately, all wrong!" Sakurakoji made an X with his fingers and walked to the "box" covered by the white cloth.

"Alright, now it's time to reveal the answer." He placed his hand on it, then pulled it away forcefully.

The white covering was torn off, revealing the shimmering, reflective objects inside.

"This is... a glass cabinet?"

"Who could have guessed that!"

"What's that inside? Wow...it's a lizard! And there are two of them!"

"...You never intended to give out a prize, did you?"

Ebizuka Satoshi hurriedly ran to the breeding tank, staring intently at the cute little black creature inside, his eyes sparkling.

"Could this be... a South African armadillo lizard?!"

"so cute!!"

"Huh? Is this thing cute?" Momoka Kawara leaned closer, looking incredulous.

"Wow~ It bites its own tail when you touch it~ It's actually kind of cute!" Jingqin Rencai exclaimed excitedly, standing on tiptoe.

"But why buy this? There are better options for a gift for a girl, aren't there?" Anwa Subaru wondered.

"No, this is the best." Rupa shook his head in denial, "Because Ash really likes reptiles..."

"Huh? Majiga... that's quite a niche hobby." Kawara Momoka exclaimed in surprise.

"Actually, I originally wanted to send a non-venomous snake, but I thought that some of you might be afraid of snakes, so I changed it to this," Sakurakoji added regretfully.

"A snake?!" Momoka Kawahara exclaimed, "No, no, no, no!! If you send me a snake, I'll really break off all our friendship!!"

"Miss Momoka, so you're afraid of snakes?"

"Actually, I'm a little scared too, but if it's non-toxic, it should be fine, right?"

"A snake is a snake! It's scary no matter if it's venomous or not!"

"It feels like I've seen another side of the handsome Momoka-san, which is quite unexpected..."

"I know, that's why I didn't send it." Sakurakoji Sai said helplessly.

He knew she was afraid of snakes, which is why he chose a lizard, and a very rare South African armadillo lizard at that.

Tomomasa Ebizuka held two lizards in his hands. The two adorable little creatures were tiny and motionless, biting their own tails, looking just like two playable figurines.

Her face was radiant with contentment, her expression softened, and her eyes were moist, revealing her supreme bliss.

"Do you like it?" Sakurakoji Sakai crouched down and whispered in her ear.

Ebizuka Tomo's petite body trembled slightly as she looked up at him, her voice hesitant: "I like it, thank you."

"But this must be very expensive and rare, right? Is it really okay for me to give it to you?"

She hesitated, as a reptile enthusiast, she at least knew a little about the market.

"It's nothing, it's just that a friend happens to have some of these to cultivate." Sakurakoji Saitaka gestured for her not to worry about it.

"Very expensive? How expensive? Tens of thousands of yen each?" Izana's eyes widened as she pointed at the small figurine in her hand.

It's hard and prickly, but its temperament is relatively docile.

"Tens of thousands of RMB is more like it," Sakurakoji thought to himself.

Ebizuka Tomo whispered a few words in her ear, and Izaya Nina immediately jumped up, waving her arms in front of her, her gaze towards the two little ones becoming humble.

"So expensive?!"

"Nani? How much?"

Others were also curious and went up to ask. After learning the price, their gazes toward him became quite interesting.

"I'm shocked. You really are amazing..."

"Will you give me such an expensive gift next time it's my birthday?"

"I'm starting to look forward to it."

"Vulgar!" Sakurakoji Sai expressed his disdain for them, and added to Ebizuka Satoshi, "These two happen to be a male and a female, so they can breed in the future."

"Let's put the breeding tanks in this room. They're small, so if you want to keep them in your own place, you can move them around easily."

"Hmm." Ebizuka Tomo had completely lost his previous resentment and dissatisfaction.

With his double offensive of cake and gifts, even if he were to hug RUPA and pin him against the wall right in front of her now, she probably wouldn't blame him.

"By the way, how did Mr. Talent know that Xiao Zhi likes these things?" Jingqin Rencai asked curiously.

"Isn't it obvious in the feed? There are so many related photos." He held up his phone again to explain.

"Alright, let's cut the cake! Everyone must be pretty hungry by now, right?"

"Oh!!"

"I want a big meal!"

"Then I'll help cut the cake."

"Let's sing karaoke after we eat! Let's use our home karaoke system!"

"Great idea! I want to hear Tao Xiang sing!"

"That's possible, you know, talent?"

"...Today is special, so you'll be allowed to have a drink."

"Yoshi!! Bring me some wine! Bring me some wine!"

"..."

……

the next morning,

As Sakurakoji Saisai boarded the train back to Tokyo, he couldn't help but cover his face as he recalled the chaos of the previous night.

Last night, after we finished eating the cake, I don't know who started it, but a group of people began wasting food, smearing cake everywhere.

At first, they just smeared cream on their faces, but it quickly escalated into a "snowball fight," making a complete mess of the living room.

The two drunkards, Momoka and Rupa, would rub against him and hug him whenever they had the chance, their constant skin-to-skin contact and soft touches driving him crazy.

They continued singing until midnight, thankfully no one called the police for disturbing the peace.

But it's one thing for Momoka Kawahara, but isn't RUPA supposed to be a heavy drinker? I don't know why she got confused this time. Is she too happy to join a new band?

If you can't figure it out, you can only give up thinking about it.

None of them went home last night. After washing up using items borrowed from Kawara Momoka, they all slept at the villa.

When he got up in the morning and saw the mess in the living room, he lost his appetite and immediately ran away.

Let them handle the cleaning.

He sent a message in the group chat of 6 people saying he had left, and continued to stare blankly out the window.

Three days! This time I spent a full three days in Kawasaki!

I also took three days off from Fanxing. I don't know how Ichika Hoshika will bully me when I get back. Just thinking about it is terrifying...

Fortunately, Ichika Hoshika doesn't know that she took leave to go out and hang out with a group of women, so she should be fine.

Overall, the gains were quite significant.

Not only did he deepen his bond with all the band members, but with his help, Izare Nina and Kawara Momoka were able to gather all the members ahead of schedule and begin their activities.

Although I'm often away from home and only see the members once in a long while, I've been quite responsible as their manager!

suddenly,

ding dong~

His phone vibrated, and he thought it was Jingqin Rencai and the others complaining about his desertion at the last minute. He picked it up and glanced at it, but it wasn't.

After reading the message, Sakurakoji fell silent.

The sender was Setsuna Ogiso, and she was talking about inviting him to her house.

I actually asked him a couple of days ago, but he was in Kawasaki and didn't have time then. I told him I would probably be free in a couple of days.

So she asked again today, since it was Sunday and her family was all home, asking if he had time to come over for a meal.

After thinking for a moment, he agreed, but asked her if the time could be set for noon.

There's no way I can skip work again tonight after not working for three days.

If this continues, Ichiji Hoshika will really get so angry that she'll choke him.

"Hey……"

I was hoping to go back and rest and adjust, but I couldn't escape it after all.

Garlic bird, garlic bird, being busy is fine, being busy is good...

He turned his gaze out the window again, staring blankly at the metropolis outside.

As a contemporary young man under 20 years old, gifted, beautiful, and wealthy, yet suffering from a serious illness, he is forced to spend his days among numerous female protagonists, and his eyes always reveal a melancholy that his peers cannot understand.

Music seemed to flow around him, gradually exuding an ethereal and otherworldly aura that captivated the infatuated gazes of a group of young girls and divorced women on the tram.

If melancholy is a gift...

……

Upon returning to the Heavenly Mansion, he was verbally attacked by someone.

Sakurakoji Cai never expected that the first person to attack him would not be Ijichi Seika, but the maid in his household who wanted to overthrow the Tengang.

"Wow! Where have you been these past few days? I asked the head maid, and you haven't returned to the manor!"

Aoyama Nanami, who was cleaning the room, saw him walk in and immediately came over to question him.

"Uh, I had to go out of town for some business."

"Where exactly? Is it overseas?" Aoyama Nanami squeezed his body closer, forcing him into a corner, their bodies almost touching.

"Next time you go out, could you please let me know before you leave? Do you know how worried I am when I don't see you for a few days?"

"I'm sorry... but if you have a problem, you can contact me by phone." Sakurakoji retorted stubbornly, not understanding why she was reacting so strongly.

"I was afraid you were busy with something important and didn't want to bother you," Aoyama Nanami said, shrinking back slightly, looking a little embarrassed.

“The head maid said you told her you had to go out, so I think there shouldn’t be any problem.”

"If that's the case, then what are you worried about?" Sakurakoji asked, puzzled.

“...Because you didn’t tell me!” She took a deep breath and stared at him as she spoke.

"..." Sakurakoji's lips twitched, even more confused, but he had at least grasped the key points.

"Then next time I go out, I'll let you know in advance?"

“That’s only right.” Aoyama Nanami nodded in satisfaction and stepped back.

"So, have you finished your business?"
