Crossover Anime: The Heroine's Savior in the Other World

Kitahara Sousuke didn't react for a moment.

"If you want to apply to Waseda University, fill in the application like this next time, understand?"

"I……"

"What, you don't want to?"

Xingyue Feng glared at the other person.

"No, what I meant was... well, Waseda University is pretty good."

Kitahara Sosuke decisively chose to follow his heart. Although he didn't quite understand why this topic was suddenly brought up, he roughly understood what the girl meant.

Is Feng hoping that he will go to the same university as her?

"Humph!"

Xingyue Feng snorted softly, his eyes softening considerably. At least this guy has some ambition. If he didn't even dare to try this, he should have been stuffed into the sewer and flushed into Tokyo Bay.

"Rin too!"

Kaede turned to look at her younger sister, then at Kitahara Sosuke: "Anyway, you two, from today onwards, you'd better study hard. Although that scumbag Sosuke has made progress, he's too unbalanced in his studies. I'll tutor you two in Chinese and history from now on. As for science, that idiot Sosuke can handle it. If Rin doesn't understand something, just ask him."

At this point, Xingyue Feng deliberately paused: "Do you have any objections?"

"No."

Kitahara Sosuke shook his head cleanly and decisively.

……

at the same time,

In a quiet mansion in Kyoto, an elderly man in his seventies sat sternly in the head seat, looking at a middle-aged woman who stood respectfully before him.

"Look at the shameful things she's doing outside!"

The old man had someone hand over a pale yellow kraft paper bag, then picked up the fine dew from the table, took a sip, and shook his head with a mixture of anger and heartache. "If it weren't for someone... sigh, this child, in short, we can't let her be like this anymore. You should go to Tokyo yourself; her willfulness should finally come to an end."

"Yes, I'll have someone deal with those scumbags. Is Diezi... really alright?"

After reading the documents in the brown paper bag, a rare hint of anger and worry appeared on the middle-aged woman's resolute face.

"It's okay, I'm perfectly fine!"

A glint of shrewdness flashed in the old man's eyes. "The little bastards have all been dealt with, but one big rat is missing. When the family members who had separated from the household went looking for it, they found it had already been thrown into the septic tank. Hmph, the little guy's got some ruthless methods..."

Chapter 193 A Heart Full of Guilt

Having set his goals, Kitahara Sosuke became even more serious. It wasn't just for himself; since he had promised the girl, he wanted to do his best to fulfill his promise.

Waseda University is a top 10 university in Japan, and it's not something you can get into just by talking about it.

Fortunately, the world is still the same world. Classic science knowledge such as Newton's laws has not changed. I just need to pick up some knowledge that I have already learned. If I had to say, only Chinese and history are subjects that I have not studied before and need to focus on mastering.

Time flies. When Kitahara Sosuke left Hoshizuki's house with his schoolbag on his back, the sun was already setting and it was getting late.

"I am back."

Kitahara Sousuke rang the doorbell.

The door opened quickly.

A long-haired girl wearing an apron stood behind the door; she was none other than the kind-hearted older sister.

"Welcome home, Nissan."

Upon seeing Kitahara Sousuke, Marina smiled faintly. Sure enough, her brother really meant it when he said he would come home for dinner.

"Sorry I got back a little late, let's eat."

I changed my shoes and went into the living room.

Kitahara Sousuke looked up and saw Hanako sitting on the sofa. She wasn't wearing the pajamas she had on when she left in the morning, but a clean white shirt paired with a Western-style skirt that just went past her knees, with a small suitcase next to her.

"Sousuke is back?"

Kitahara Kayoko turned her head and smiled gently at her son.

"Is Mom... going out?"

Kitahara Sousuke looked at the suitcase on the ground with some surprise.

“There’s a sudden emergency at the research group, and Mom has to fly to the United States tonight.”

Hanako stood up with some regret, tiptoed and touched Kitahara Sosuke's hair. She was always very busy and had wanted to spend a happy weekend with the children, but she didn't expect to have to go on a business trip to the United States right after it ended.

"I understand. I'll take Mom to the airport in a bit."

"No need, no need. A colleague will drive us there later. Sōsuke can just stay home and take care of his sisters."

Hua Daizi smiled and shook her head. This child has really changed a lot in the past six months. From being bullied and despondent after Daisuke's death to regaining his sunny and cheerful self, Sosuke has really grown into a man.

"Mom, come home early..."

Marina said somewhat dejectedly, while Airi on the other side gently bit her lip. However, the sad atmosphere of parting had already been digested by the afternoon, so the girls did not burst into tears on the spot.

After all, although Hua Daizi is usually very busy and only spends about half of the week at home, traveling to a foreign country for business and working at a university in the same city are completely different things.

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of the house. Airi and Marina have been very well-behaved lately."

Kitahara Sousuke nodded.

"Oh, right." Hua Daizi tapped her head playfully, as if she had suddenly remembered something. "Speaking of which, there is indeed something I need to ask Sōsuke for help with."

She rummaged through her bag and pulled out a beautifully packaged cardboard card: "Marina and Airi's school is having a sports day next week. I've received an invitation from the school, but because of that, I can only ask Sosuke to go and cheer them on as a parent."

"I go?"

Kitahara Sosuke opened the folded invitation and saw that it was from Seifu Academy, where Airi and Marina studied, and the event was scheduled for next Wednesday.

"Ah, it'll be so pitiful for kids who don't have family members to go to the gas station. Sosuke used to always stay home alone, and his mom was always so busy. Speaking of which, when Nana was in her first year of junior high, nobody went to the gas station for her..."

"..."

Kitahara Sosuke turned to look at Marina, a hint of sadness inevitably flashing in the girl's eyes, before she looked up and forced a smile: "Mom, Nii-san has to go to school, so it's okay if it's just me and Airi..."

On the other side, Airi quietly walked up behind him and kicked him angrily with her little foot: "Even without that idiot Sosuke, Airi can take care of herself."

"Okay, I understand. I'll ask Hiratsuka-sensei for leave on Wednesday."

Kitahara Sosuke nodded solemnly. That's how it is in single-parent families. It's inevitable that there will be things that Hanako can't take care of when she's raising three children on her own. Japan is also a society where school bullying is quite prevalent. If no family members go to the sports meet, she will inevitably become the target of ridicule and bullying.

I wasn't good enough as an older brother before, but I'm not anymore.

"Then I'll leave it to Sousuke."

Hua Daizi smiled and hugged her children, then waved and left with her suitcase.

After dinner, Kitahara Sosuke helped Marina clean up the kitchen and dining table, and then sat on the sofa with Airi to watch TV.

The beautiful female host was sitting in front of the broadcasting station, reading today's current affairs news word by word as usual.

Airi wasn't interested in the TV news. The girl curled up on the sofa, looking at her phone, one little foot dangling from side to side on Kitahara Sosuke's leg. She had mostly processed the negative emotions brought on by Hanako's business trip.

Instead, on the day of the sports meet, that idiot Sosuke will come to school to cheer on Airi and Marina, hmph...

"Seven, come here."

Kitahara Sosuke waved to Marina, who was still making tea for the three of them.

"Nissan, what's wrong?"

Marina placed the teapot on the coffee table with some doubt and walked over to Kitahara Sousuke.

"Take a break, come here, let me massage your shoulders."

The older sister is too virtuous; she always takes on all the housework, and when Kitahara Kayoko isn't home, she becomes a little housewife again.

"Hey, Nii-san...why all of a sudden?"

Marina blushed slightly, and the girl gripped the hem of her apron tightly with her hands.

"This guy, knowing that you only participated in the sports meet last year, Marina, is definitely feeling guilty."

With a sly grin, Airi gently kicked Kitahara Sosuke's stomach with her little foot.

"right?"

"Shut up, go play on your phone." Kitahara Sosuke irritably pushed the girl's small foot away, then explained to Marina, "It was my fault for not going last year, and I won't do it this year, but what's done is done, so at least let me make it up to Nana-chan."

"Tch—a shoulder massage isn't enough as compensation..."

Ellie muttered softly.

"Eh, since you've said that, Nii-san... then I'll leave it to you."

The girl covered her mouth with a slight smile, then sat on the floor with her back to Kitahara Sousuke, draping her long brown hair over her chest to reveal her fair neck.

"Is this intensity okay?"

"Nissan, that's a bit too strong..."

"I see."

With Nissan's large hands on her shoulders and the host's clear, sweet voice in her ears, Marina and her siblings enjoyed a rare moment of warm tranquility.

Then, a news brief suddenly caught the girl's attention.

"Yesterday, an unidentified male corpse was found in the septic tank of an abandoned factory in Banqiao District. Police investigation has preliminarily identified the deceased as Akizuki Kozo, a wanted rapist. There were no external injuries on the body; the cause of death was asphyxiation, and the preliminary ruling is suicide. It is understood that Akizuki Kozo was formerly a professor at XX University, where he researched..."

"Nii-san, that's..."

Marina covered her mouth in surprise.

"It's that perverted teacher!" Upon hearing the name "Akizuki Kozo," Airi jumped up from the sofa. Seeing the blurred image of the corpse in the news, she pinched her nose and said disgustedly, "So disgusting..."

"Yes, it's Akizuki Kozo."

Kitahara Sosuke nodded calmly, but his brows furrowed slightly.

Suicide...
