Anime Crossover: About How I Spoiled an Angel

Page 318

"Unless what?"

"Unless that fish is really a stupid fish! Otherwise, it's a dead fish!" Zhixia's heart was still young, and her voice suddenly rose a few decibels.

My academically gifted grandma is a childish rascal.

Yui thought to herself.

“Of course, there aren’t that many stupid fish and dead fish in the world. Maybe it’s because that fish likes you.” Zhixia squinted her eyes. “Because I met you in that spot once, I’ve been taking my breath in that spot ever since.”

While other fish are busy mating and sleeping, it only cares about surfacing and surfacing.

Other fish asked it if it was lacking oxygen, and why it had been floating to the surface lately, but it didn't know how to answer.

Because it's not actually lacking oxygen.

It just wants to meet someone it likes. Even if that liking won't wait for any spring to sprout.

"Waaah, what a tragic story." Yui's eyes stung slightly as she listened; she was easily moved to tears and couldn't bear to hear such a story.

But something seems off?

"But Grandma, why do fish like people?"

These aren't even the same species anymore!

"Go away, go away, just hypotheticals, you understand?" Zhixia pouted. "Stories are just one hypothetical scenario after another. Taking it too seriously is just admitting defeat!"

"Okay. So, assuming fish like people, would people like fish?" Yui stopped worrying and became curious about what would happen next.

"You'll like it, didn't you eat quite a lot of fish tonight?"

Yui:[?ヘ??]

Zhixia chuckled and continued, "Even a fool would know that's impossible."

How could a person like fish?

People only like to eat fish.

If you see a fish that keeps respawning in the same spot like an NPC, you'll naturally be happy to take it home, rather than thinking about turning it into another fish.

And what about that silly fish? It still foolishly thought that people liked it too!

That fish likes you, so you can do whatever you want with it. It doesn't even know how to resist.

I wonder if the fish that resists will ultimately be steamed or stir-fried~~~

Ah? ? ?

Grandma... is this stir-fry properly?

Yui simply assumed she misheard the question; asking such a question would only make the other person think she had a head full of lewd nonsense.

"But Grandma, first of all, I'm not called Silly Fish."

Secondly, it's not called a fish.

Ultimately, I should be a human being.

Yui said with a serious expression.

She realized that her grandmother was referring to her, but she lacked concrete evidence.

"Yes, you are a human being."

As the pale moonlight shone down, Zhixia's eyes gleamed with a profound light.

"People should love themselves."

……

Tokyo. A bustling, noisy place.

The fireworks display is about to begin.

Su Qing and Zhen Zhou each held some hot snacks in their hands, preparing to eat while they waited.

The two were seated in the "VIP area" that was officially sold.

The kind of scenic spots that only the male and female protagonists or a very few people know about, as seen in cliché novels, do not exist.

If there were any, they would be used to make money immediately, eventually leading to overcrowding, and then being "co-opted" by the authorities...

"Is it really okay to wear a kimono in this cold weather?"

After sitting down, Su Qing looked Zhenzhuo's clothes up and down, unable to imagine how such a material could keep warm.

He might only feel at ease if he dressed up like a giant rice dumpling during the day.

"Hmm...it's actually just like normal clothes."

Just wear more thermal underwear underneath; everyone wears it like that.

Besides, I also put heat packs inside.

Mahiru smiled, patted her belly lightly, and squinted her eyes as she laughed.

His proud and smug demeanor made Su Qing chuckle involuntarily.

Just as I was about to say something, the girl put the snacks she had bought aside, then put her hands on her hips, frowned, as if questioning me, or perhaps complaining.

"Aren't you cold? And you're criticizing me. Look at you, you don't take care of yourself, you're always dressed less than everyone else."

Next time you go out, let me check how many layers you're wearing before I let you out!

The girl stared directly at Su Qing with her clear, bright eyes.

Their firm stance made it feel less like a discussion and more like a notification.

"Inspection? How will the inspection be conducted?"

Su Qing became interested and sat up straight to look at Zhen Zhou.

"Huh? If it's an examination, then it's...it's..."

Mahiru tried to explain, but she couldn't make it clear at all.

You can't exactly ask me to take off each piece of clothing one by one for you to inspect, can you?!

Sometimes, young girls really do have the desire but not the courage to act on it.

Just as she was at a loss, the sound of a zipper being pulled open entered her head, as if it were about to explode!

It's all over... It's all over!

My boyfriend is being a pervert!

How could you take your clothes off here? Everyone will see!

Mahiru's entire nervous system nearly shut down, and she kept muttering, "No, no, no..."

She covered her face with her hands, but her large, caramel-colored eyes sparkled brightly through the gaps in her gaze.

This must be instinct!

Mahiru comforted herself with this thought during her post-incident review.

Now, her vision was shrouded in shadow. The brief darkness did not frighten Mahiru; instead, it gave her a feeling of enjoying the breeze under a tree on a summer afternoon.

Su Qing's voice echoed with the light.

"Put on your coat, don't catch a cold."

"Oh...and what about you?" Mahiru felt really embarrassed, like a fool.

There's no way I would take off my clothes in a place like this for her to examine me...

She straightened up and suddenly realized that Su Qing didn't have a coat. She quickly tried to take it off, but Su Qing grabbed her hand.

"I brought two coats with me when I went out, but it's too much trouble to carry them around, so I just wore them. So don't worry about me."

Su Qing said slowly.

"Really? I couldn't tell you were wearing two coats at all..."

Mahiru blinked, somewhat surprised.

But the facts were right in front of her, and she had no choice but to believe them.

"So, how many layers are you wearing today?"

"Not counting the coat I just took off for you, there are three pieces," Su Qing honestly confessed.

"Hmph, very good, very good. From now on, we must follow this standard in this kind of weather, otherwise I will really keep you locked in your room and not let you out."

Mahiru sometimes felt that she should be a bit more forceful, otherwise Su Qing wouldn't listen to her!

"Yes, yes, yes." Su Qing nodded with a smile, "But I'd like to know how you're going to block it?"

"Then of course we'll lock you up. How else can we block you from going out?"

Mahiru said, of course.

Don't forget, she has a key to Su Qing's house!

"Really? That's very lifelike."

Su Qing looked at Mahiru with a half-smile, unsure whether the girl was pretending to be stupid or what.

Before he could think any further, a soft touch suddenly came over his arm. The scent of shower gel mixed with the girl's natural fragrance, making him yearn for it.

"Look, look, it's starting!"

Mahiru's beautiful eyes sparkled, her red lips parted slightly, her eyes filled with joy and excitement.

She had never participated in a fireworks display before because she was always alone, and when she was alone, even the most beautiful fireworks only felt noisy and chaotic.

So she usually stayed home alone at this time of year, only glancing at the window after a sliver of human warmth seeped through the cracks.

Following Mahiru's gaze, Su Qingqing raised her eyes.

A spark shot into the sky, and after a loud bang, the desolate night was sliced ​​open like a cloth, revealing graceful arcs.

Then, one sound after another, the blackness of the sky was painted in a riot of colors, and ripples surged in layers.

The crowd began to stir, with countless people taking out their phones to capture the moment.

Some people took the opportunity to confess to their childhood sweethearts, some couples were kissing, and a large number of office workers were cursing their lousy bosses and their messed-up lives.

The fireworks were magnificent, like a galaxy, and the warmth of the fire and light seemed to comfort the entire city of Tokyo.

Su Qing glanced at it twice, but then stopped looking.

His gaze, uncontrollably, naturally fell on Mahiru's face.

Then it kept swimming and moving upwards to her side.

The scene reflected the starlight, and all the beauty of the world seemed to flow in naturally, like the arrival of spring.

Su Qing was in a daze, her pupils unfocused for a long time.

Looking at Mahiru, the entire world's structure is clearly discernible, as if one can communicate and connect with it.

Mahiru watched intently; this was her first time spending New Year's with someone incredibly important to her, and she valued it highly.

So her attention was initially drawn to the fireworks, but just as she was about to share her joy with Su Qing, she was stunned when she met his eyes.

Huh? Why are you looking at me?

"Didn't you watch the fireworks?" Mahiru asked earnestly.

"What did you say? I—can't—hear—you~~" Su Qing laughed, her voice rising.

"Well……"

Mahiru looked dazed; the surrounding noise was so loud that even though the two were very close, they couldn't hear each other clearly.

But she wanted to watch the fireworks with him.

Some memories can be preserved in photographs and become eternal, but those truly unforgettable moments cannot be captured in photographs, nor do they need to be.

Mahiru was quick-witted; she took Su Qing's hand and wrote down a few words on it swiftly and accurately.

"It's great, let's watch it together!"

The exclamation mark was written in capital letters by the girl.

After Su Qing finished reading, she was met with Mahiru's delicate features. Perhaps afraid that Su Qing hadn't understood, she pointed to the sky again.
