Crossover Anime: Starting with Adopting the Homeless Melon God

"Ayumi probably just sees me as a good friend, right?"

Kitagawa Yu sighed silently, then frowned again.

"So Ayumi wants to defeat Yuna because she hasn't given up on Koji Majima yet?"

"That makes sense. After all, in Ayumi's eyes, the two of them are childhood friends. And isn't the motivation that keeps Ayumi studying so hard to prove to Koji Majima that she's not stupid? If she's given up and doesn't like him anymore, then there's no need to prove anything anymore, right?"

"Although Ayumi hasn't spoken a single word to Koji Majima these past few days, it just means she hasn't moved on yet and is deliberately avoiding him, right?"

"In that case, it makes sense that Chihiro Ono, who has always opposed this, wants Ayumi to give up, and that Kiku Hinazuki wants me to take a liking to Ayumi and actively pursue her."

Kitagawa Yu, from his own perspective, tried to use logic to sort out the relationship between the three wishes.

Moreover, Ayumi's stubborn personality doesn't seem like the type to fall for someone else after only twenty days of heartbreak!

The only thing that still doesn't quite make sense is: "Why all of a sudden at this time?"

"Did Koji Majima suddenly do something? Or did Ayumi suddenly realize that Koji Majima and Yuna had broken up, so she saw hope again?"

"I originally thought Ayumi had given up on Ono Chihiro and Hinazuki Kiku, but then I realized that Ayumi hadn't given up on them yet, which is why they coincidentally made wishes and set off together?"

Kitagawa Yu subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of Majima Koji's seat.

Koji Majima was nowhere to be found; he wasn't in his seat.

After hesitating for a moment, Kitagawa Yu got up and left the classroom, then skillfully went to the window directly opposite the back door of the classroom and looked in the direction of Ayumi.

Because people were constantly walking by in the corridor in front of her, Ayumi did not notice Kitagawa Yu outside the classroom door, while Kitagawa Yu could clearly see Ayumi's situation.

At that moment, Chihiro Ono and Kiku Hinazuki were standing next to Ayumi's seat, chattering away.

Ayumi listened, occasionally nodding in sudden understanding, and sometimes showing a troubled expression. However, upon closer inspection, a faint sorrow did indeed appear between her brows, completely different from the relaxed and cheerful demeanor she had when she came to school this morning.

Kitagawa Yu hesitated for a moment, but still tried his best to eavesdrop.

However, because they were a bit far away, and Chihiro Ono and the others were deliberately lowering their voices, clearly not wanting others to hear, he could only vaguely hear words like 'long hair,' 'lady,' 'gentle,' and 'hopeless.'

so.

"Are these two guys teaching Ayumi how to change herself to please Koji Majima and defeat Yuna?"

Kitagawa Yu felt a surge of irritation, but he breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that Majima Koji wasn't there.

At least Ayumi hasn't changed back to the way he first saw her.

The class bell rang.

Kitagawa Yu took a deep breath and quickly walked back to his seat.

At the same time, Ayumi, who had just turned around, seemed to sense something and glanced at the corridor outside the door. Unfortunately, Kitagawa Yu had already returned to the classroom.

For most people, Monday is definitely the hardest day of the week.

If you were to ask which part of Monday is the hardest to get through, it would definitely be the morning.

As the bell rang to signal the end of the last class of the morning, several sighs of relief echoed through the classroom even before the teacher on the podium had left.

The teachers who taught the course were already used to it.

For students who want to go to university, it's enough to study hard and listen attentively in class. As for those who don't plan to go to university, the next two years or so will be their last happy time before entering society.

As someone who's been through it, there's really no need to be overly critical.

The situation was similar in the next classroom.

Chihiro Ono, who was already discussing with Hinazuki Kiku what to eat at the cafeteria for lunch before get out of class even ended, stood up and stretched as soon as get out of class was over, ready to urge Hinazuki Kiku, who was still leisurely organizing her class notes, to hurry up.

When she turned her head, she suddenly realized that Ayumi, who usually rushed out of the classroom with her lunchbox to find Kitagawa Yu at this time, was still sitting in her seat, head down, seemingly lost in thought. She frowned and walked over angrily.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you dawdling about here for? Hurry up and grab your lunch and go find your Kitagawa-kun!"

As she spoke, Chihiro Ono slapped Ayumi hard on the back. Although it didn't hurt, it startled Ayumi so much that she jumped up from her seat.

"Um... I forgot to bring my lunch today," Ayumi explained softly, while secretly stuffing her schoolbag back into her desk drawer.

"."

Chihiro Ono, sitting opposite her, was speechless at the sight of her evasive gaze.

With a liar's skill level, she couldn't even fool a stranger, let alone her? Does she really think their friendship of so many years was fake?

But then she thought it might not be a bad thing. So after exchanging a glance with Hinagiku who was walking behind her, she didn't expose Ayumi's lie. Instead, she rolled her eyes and muttered, "You're such an idiot, there's no hope for you," before pulling her away from the classroom.

She used to be more enthusiastic than anyone else when joking around.

If possible, she really hoped that Ayumi and Kitagawa Yu could get together, because in her eyes, apart from academic performance, Kitagawa Yu was indeed much better than Majima Koji in everything else.

But now that she sees Ayumi really caught up in it, and Kitagawa Yu has Ayako by her side, an opponent even stronger than Shimizu Yuna, she really doesn't think Ayumi can win this war.

Although as her best friend, she couldn't directly persuade Ayumi to give up.

Most importantly, based on her understanding of Ayumi, she knew that no matter how much she tried to persuade her, it would probably be useless to the stubborn Ayumi.

However, she would still be happy to cool things down for Ayumi through criticism or other means, and let her slowly 'accept reality'.

That's right, the reason Ayumi lied about not bringing a lunchbox was because she was hurt by what Chihiro had said earlier.

Although her target for comparison was Yuna, not Ayako, the effect was basically the same.

Yuna's breasts are even more magnificent than Ayako's, and her personality is gentler and more obedient. According to Chihiro, such a girl is even more popular with boys than an ice queen like Ayako.

This made her, who was already insecure, even more insecure.

Moreover, Kitagawa Yu wasn't her childhood friend, and the two of them had never made a promise to stay together forever or to get married when they grew up, which made her feel much less supportive.

The fact that she didn't immediately decide to give up is already a testament to her stubborn personality.

"I'm having lunch with Chihiro and Kiku today, so you can have lunch with Ayako instead, Yuu." ^.^

In the next classroom, Kitagawa Yu, who was sitting in his seat staring blankly at his phone, suddenly felt a surge of frustration again when he saw the new message from Ayumi displayed on his screen. The frustration he had just managed to suppress surged up once more.

"okay"

Click to send.

Various thoughts flashed through Kitagawa Yu's mind in an instant, and a bitter smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

Thinking about it carefully, this was the first time in all the time he had known Ayumi that she hadn't come to see him all morning.

"Is it because you don't want Koji Majima to see you and misunderstand?"

"Then let me, as your friend, help you one more time!"

Chapter 103 The Pentagon?

The afternoon sky had become somewhat overcast, with thick clouds hanging low, seemingly foreshadowing an upcoming autumn rain.

However, the change in weather did not affect Ayako's cheerful mood. Although yesterday's date did not officially establish a relationship, she was already very satisfied.

But when she arrived at the classroom door and saw Shimizu Yuna next to Kitagawa Yu, she couldn't help but pause for a moment.

"Senior." Ayako snapped out of her daze, stepped forward, and called out softly.

Kitagawa Yu, who was holding a pen and explaining the details of the fight scenes in Demon Slayer to Shimizu Yuna while drawing, suddenly froze. He took a deep breath, suppressed the slight tension and guilt that suddenly rose in his heart, and turned to look at her with a smile.

"Ayako, you're here. This is Shimizu Yuna."

"Hello, Yuna-senpai!"

Ayako gave a slight bow and greeted Shimizu Yuna naturally, but her heart was in turmoil.

How could she not know Shimizu Yuna? After all, Shimizu Yuna is a famous beauty in school, and just last week there was that rumor about her and Kitagawa Yu.

Although it was eventually proven that the rumor was false, and Kitagawa Yu was just being careless.

However, she couldn't help but secretly investigate Shimizu Yuna's past experiences and information at school, and naturally learned about the complicated relationship between Shimizu Yuna, Majima Koji, and Ayumi.

So when did Kitagawa Yuu become friends with Shimizu Yuna?

Kitagawa Yuu and Shimizu Yuna become friends, so what should Ayumi do?

"Hello! Ayako-senpai!"

Yuna Shimizu's slightly nervous voice pulled Ayako out of her reverie, and a look of doubt flashed in her eyes.

"Why is she so nervous? I'm not acting my usual aloof self right now," Ayako wondered, puzzled.

However, she is more concerned about another issue now.

"Senior, where's Ayumi-senpai?"

"Ayumi is having lunch with Chihiro and Kiku today, so she won't be coming. Let's go to the cafeteria!"

A big question mark popped into Ayako's head again.

Although Kitagawa Yu couldn't tell from her expression or her answer that there was anything wrong, her girlish intuition told her that something was off.

Moreover, they usually eat lunch in the classroom, so why would they take their lunchboxes and go to the cafeteria?

"Could it be... because of that Koji Majima?"

Ayako tilted her head slightly and glanced in the direction of Koji Majima out of the corner of her eye.

Because she had been coming over every day to have lunch with Kitagawa Yu these past few days, she already knew which one was Majima Koji.

At this moment, Koji Majima was still sitting in his seat, his hands gripping the stainless steel lunchbox tightly, his face already ashen.

In fact, from the moment Shimizu Yuna walked into the classroom with her lunchbox, and then walked towards Kitagawa Yu under his astonished gaze, he had maintained this action and expression for almost five minutes.

"Does the senior have a grudge against this guy?"

A strange look flashed in Ayako's eyes again, but she did not ask any further questions.

However, on the way to the restaurant, she still subtly inquired about the relationship between Kitagawa Yu and Shimizu Yuna, because she could tell that Shimizu Yuna's gaze towards Kitagawa Yu was not just that of an ordinary friend.

That kind of liking and admiration could not be hidden from her, who also liked Kitagawa Yu. What surprised her even more was that Shimizu Yuna's feelings for Kitagawa Yu seemed to be even deeper than hers.

But how is this possible?

"She and her senior have barely met, right? I've never heard Ayumi-senpai mention anything about her senior having any contact with Shimizu Yuna."

Because it is a public school, the cafeteria at Sakuraba High School is quite ordinary in terms of both size and taste, and can only accommodate a maximum of 300 people at a time.

However, due to the bento culture in Japan, during lunch break you can see students eating bento in twos and threes in classrooms, rooftops, playgrounds and other places. On the other hand, the cafeteria is usually only about half full.

Even with only half the seats occupied, that's still over a hundred people. Add to that the people we met along the way, and they hadn't even finished their lunch yet, and the news that Shimizu Yuna was having lunch with him had already spread throughout the entire school.
