Crossover anime, and you call this a slice-of-life story?

"It's nothing, just some simple tricks."

Shangguan Yun originally intended to capture a few monsters, but felt that since the other party was just a primary school student, he didn't need to make such a big fuss. However, it seems that he didn't scare them enough.

This generation of primary school students really needs to be properly educated.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Yun added some more to the illusion. In the eyes of these elementary school students, the 'Tsurumi Rumi' who was pushed out stared at them with empty eyes, and blood gradually flowed from the corners of her eyes.

This terrified the group of elementary school students. They felt a surge of strength from somewhere and stumbled away, crying.

After this nightmare, they will probably be very careful when facing Tsurumi Rumi, and will definitely not dare to provoke her or seek revenge.

"In this way, it seems that the issue of studying in the United States has not been resolved."

Hikigaya Komachi looked at Tsurumi Rumi with a hint of pity.

"Thanks……"

Tsurumi Rumi's reaction surprised Hikigaya Komachi, who had expected Rumi to be disappointed.

After this incident, Tsurumi Rumi realized that there was no such thing as "everyone" at all, and that she was forced to take actions against her own will because "everyone" was doing the same thing.

Perhaps some of these people are reluctant to push themselves out, but when faced with 'everyone,' they will all reach out that sinful hand together.

This world that demands so-called "everyone" must be built on the premise of sacrificing someone; this is a low-class peace.

"I don't want this kind of fake friendship anymore."

Tsurumi Rumi said firmly, bowed to Shangguan Yun and the others, and walked alone toward her destination.

She no longer cares how others will view her in the future.

"Hey, why do I feel like I'm being charmed by an elementary school student?"

"It's transformed..."

Although things didn't go as expected, and the outcome was uncertain—whether good or bad—it at least strengthened the belief of a primary school student.

It's time for this test of courage to come to an end.

However, it seems that some people are not willing to let this end.

"senior……"

Hikigaya suddenly lowered his voice and said to Shangguan Yun, his expression somewhat complicated.

What is this guy from the Ministry of Revenue up to?

"I see."

Shangguan Yun nodded calmly, not taking the Ministry of Revenue's petty tricks seriously at all.

However, since the other party dared to do it, he naturally had to teach them a lesson.

A crimson light flashed in Hikigaya's eyes. Although he knew that Tobe Sho couldn't cause any trouble, he would definitely teach him a lesson if the other party dared to provoke Senior Shangguan.

The belatedly arriving Tobe Sho had no idea what kind of monster he was about to face.

Seeing that Shangguan Yun and his group ahead did not seem to be leaving, Hubu Xiang felt that his opportunity had come.

Somewhat clumsily, he straightened the white sheets on his body, put on the ghost mask, and even turned on the video recording function on his phone, placing it on a tree branch.

They moved forward 'quietly' and 'without attracting anyone's attention'.

For some reason, the six people in front of him seemed to be talking with their backs to him.

However, this is better, as it reduces the risk of being discovered.

Tobe Sho's main target was naturally Yukino Yukinoshita, after all, he hadn't forgotten that his main purpose was to help Yumiko Miura get revenge.

He didn't even consider why no one had heard him when he was almost behind them.

She walked up behind Yukino Yukinoshita and straightened her body slightly.

She reached out her right hand, wanting to put it on Yukino's shoulder.

Just as he was about to stretch his arm forward, a long, strong hand with distinct knuckles grabbed his wrist.

"Um?!"

Startled by the sudden grab of his wrist, Tobe Sho instinctively tried to scare the other person by pretending to be a ghost.

But before he could make any further moves, he felt a tremendous force on his wrist. The hand that was gripping his wrist seemed to have turned into an iron clamp, almost crushing his wrist.

"Ouch!!! It hurts!!!"

The scream came from the Ministry of Revenue's mouth; if the elementary school students hadn't left yet, they would have been terrified by it.

Shangguan Yun remained expressionless, gently tightening his grip on the Minister of Revenue's hand. If he applied even a little more force, he might have crushed the other man's wrist into a dough ball.

What do you want to do?

Seeing a pair of cold, seemingly emotionless eyes through the moonlight, Tobe Sho felt his body freeze, and his screams stopped abruptly.

Her gaze darted away, unsure how to answer.

Yukino Yukinoshita, who was being targeted, flashed a look of disgust in her eyes, feeling a strong aversion to such a despicable person.

Feeling pierced by the hostile gazes of the crowd, Tobu Sho felt as if his body had been pierced, and his scalp tingled.

He felt a pang of regret. Why did he do such a thing? Was it simply because he couldn't stand the other person? Or did he want to show off?

Although his voice might have given him away, his mask hadn't been removed yet, and Tobe Sho prepared to break free and escape.

So, he chose to throw a punch at Shangguan Yun...

Chapter 205 I'm Not That Gentle When I Hit People

Gabriel looked at Tobe, who dared to throw a punch at the 'evil forces', with an astonished gaze, feeling that Tobe was shining at this moment.

Then--

"Oh!"

Gabriel closed her eyes, unable to bear it any longer.

It wasn't Shangguan Yun who did it; it was Hikigaya who did it. Tobe Sho never expected that Hikigaya, whom he usually joked with, would actually hit someone.

That left front kick almost made him vomit his gallbladder.

Clutching his stomach, he hid on the ground, dry heaving, tears and snot streaming down his face. He looked just like a stray dog ​​that had been beaten up.

The indifference and mockery that had filled his eyes when he looked at Hachiman again were gone, replaced by a hint of resentment. But as he felt the excruciating pain in his abdomen, a flicker of fear flashed deep in his eyes.

Recalling the glimpse of Hikigaya's crimson eyes that he had just caught, Tobe Sho felt a chill run down his spine.

'This is a monster.'

This thought involuntarily arose in my mind, and I also remembered that Hachiman had disappeared for a period of time, during which many other people disappeared as well, but only Hachiman returned.

With this thought in mind, Tobu Sho felt as if he had discovered some earth-shattering secret.

'Those people...could they...could they all have been killed by Hachiman?'

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

Having discovered such a huge secret, will Hachiman kill me to keep quiet?

"Please...please don't kill me..."

Despite the excruciating pain in his wrists and abdomen, Tobe Sho managed to speak with difficulty.

Hikigaya: "???"

I only kicked you, who wanted to kill you?

Needless to say, he would never do such a thing in front of Komachi. Even if he really wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't do it so openly.

"Ministry of Revenue!"

"What have you done to the Ministry of Revenue?!"

Just then, Hayato Hayama and his group, who had finished their mission and were heading to their destination, ran over after hearing the screams of an acquaintance they had just heard.

As soon as I arrived, I saw Tobe lying on the ground, struggling in pain. Although he was still wearing a mask, his messy hair and the sounds he made indicated that this guy was Tobe Sho.

With a worried look on his face, Ye Shan ran over to help Hu Bu up, while Miura Yumiko glared angrily at Shangguan Yun and his group.

Among the group of people on the other side, aside from Hachiman Hikigaya who might actually make a move, the only other people left besides a few defenseless girls are Shangguan Yun and Ishigami Yu.

In Miura Yumiko's opinion, the boy with the blue side-swept bangs was so 'weak' that it was unlikely he could take down the tall and strong Hobu.

Therefore, the most suspicious person is Shangguan Yun, who is in charge.

Totsuka Saika glanced at Tobe with concern, then looked at Hikigaya Hachiman. Seeing that he was alright, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Yui Yuigahama seemed somewhat at a loss, unsure how to handle the situation.

Hina Ebina stood calmly to the side, as if nothing had much to do with her.

"Are you alright, Ministry of Revenue?"

Hayato Hayama pulled Sho Tobe up and saw several clear purple handprints on his wrist, which was even somewhat deformed.

Even with Hayama's kind-hearted nature, he was still somewhat angry to see his companion suffer such harm.

"Aren't you going too far?"

"Then why don't you ask your companion what he did? Making conclusions without understanding what happened—is this how you handle things?"

A cold, emotionless voice rang out, instantly extinguishing Hayato Hayama's rising anger.

That's right, he did see the Minister of Revenue lying on the ground in pain, and since there were many of them, he subconsciously assumed that the Minister of Revenue was the one being bullied. But what if things weren't like that?

Although he realized that his impulsive questioning was wrong, Ye Shan still frowned and said, "Even if it's because of the Ministry of Revenue, is it necessary to go to such lengths?"

"Am I supposed to wait until his disgusting hand is on my shoulder?"

Yukinoshita made no attempt to hide her disgust, and her tone grew increasingly cold.

"This……"

Ye Shan was speechless, looking at Hu Bu with a questioning gaze. If the other party really did such a thing, then he deserved to be injured no matter how badly he was hurt.

If Yukino Yukinoshita finds out, it won't just be a matter of physical suffering.

Seeing the somewhat displeased look in Hayama's eyes, Tobe Sho stammered, "I... I just wanted to scare them a little and help Yumiko vent her anger..."

"what?!"

Yumiko Miura looked bewildered. When did she say she wanted to take revenge on the other party?

Then, remembering what the Ministry of Revenue had said to him earlier, his expression turned somewhat grim.

She initially thought the other person was just making empty threats to show off in front of her, but she didn't expect them to actually dare to do it.

A surge of resentment towards the Ministry of Revenue rose in his heart, and he wished he could go up and kick it a couple more times.

However, since the other party was on her side, she naturally couldn't blame them at this moment. After all, they had stood up for her. If she turned around and reprimanded the Ministry of Revenue, her prestige within this small group would be greatly damaged.

To save face, she had no choice but to side with the Ministry of Revenue.

He then turned his sharp gaze to Shangguan Yun again, and said in a firm tone, "The Ministry of Revenue did not cause you any harm, did it? Yet you resorted to violence. Don't you owe us an explanation?"

Shangguan Yun narrowed his eyes upon hearing Miura Yumiko's words: "You mean... you're asking me for an explanation?"

Under Shangguan Yun's gaze, Miura Yumiko's rising momentum instantly deflated, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "Shouldn't you apologize for hitting someone?"

"No, you've misunderstood." Shangguan Yun seemed to be stating something, "I'm not that gentle when I hit people."

If it weren't for Hachiman's kick, given that the other guy dared to throw a punch at him, and considering that he disliked the guy, crippling one of his hands would have been the least he could have done.

Don't say it's just a joke, the other person is still a student, Shangguan Yun will not say such things to others.

If we don't act tough, how can we expect others not to go too far?

"I took over the Ministry of Revenue; it has nothing to do with Senior Shangguan."

Hikigaya stepped forward and pointed to the footprint on the belly of the Minister of Revenue.

Hikigaya's words, however, left Hayama and his group, who knew him, somewhat dumbfounded.

"Small Enterprises?! No...no way..."

Yui Yuigahama looked incredulous; in her eyes, Hachiman Hikigaya didn't seem like the type to actually fight.

"Hachiman..."
