Crossover anime/manga, can you be my immortal companion for life?

Nao Satsuka used this as a summary of her memories.

Kerry nodded after listening.

"You mean... you went to eavesdrop on those strange things at school because of someone of the same sex whom you can't even get within 50 meters of, and even brought me, a complete stranger, to a room with you in order to rescue her, and you're not even sure if I was actually sent by the school to solve this problem, or if I just wanted to try it out?"

“Yes.” Nao Satsuka nodded, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Kerry couldn't help but sigh.

"Being a chef here is a waste of your talents. With your gravity, why don't you try being in a band? You're a natural band god."

By this point, Kerry had grasped the basic framework of the matter.

In her recollection, Nao Satsuka mentioned that those people claimed to be some kind of cult. In a place where cults are legal, it is very likely that there was an organized cult, and the cult also caused the students' deaths.

It's really not a big deal, just a cult. Kerry thinks that the next thing they need to do is find the cult leader, have a fight, and then leave.

Kerry smiled.

"Now that you know so much, haven't you tried telling the school? By the way, do you know anything about that so-called cult?"

Faced with Kerry's question, Nao Satsuka hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up.

"I tried to tell the commander-in-chief that I sent an anonymous letter reporting that department, but I don't know if the commander-in-chief received it."

Oh, they seem to have mentioned something about their cult; before they spoke, they praised something—the eternal and everlasting Lord of the seven seas, the Lord of all ocean life, the eternal Father and Mother who watch over their homeland.

Kerry suddenly stopped laughing.

Is this...right...right?

Hearing this description, he recalled something from the deep sea.

"Teacher, what's wrong with you?"

Nao Satsuka noticed that Kuri's expression suddenly changed, which seemed rather strange.

"Nothing, just something..."

Kerry drew a pistol from his waist and pressed it against Nao Satsuka's forehead.

"I'm actually a key member of the cult, here to eliminate gossips like you, hehe! I'm going to sell you to a US military base!"

"What!" Nao Satsuka froze, her face, which had remained expressionless even when talking about her perverted behavior, turned even paler with fear.

She was just a 16-year-old student, and the shock she experienced nearly made her collapse.

Just as Nao Satsuka was about to press the alarm button she had prepared, Kerry put the pistol away.

"Okay, just kidding. Thanks for the information. Don't do anything so stupid again, and don't get involved anymore, kid."

Kerry waved and closed the cabin door.

Half an hour later, Kerry followed Kazuma's route and caught up with Kazuma, who was patrolling around, and described what had happened to him.

Kazuma also frowned.

"Is it a cult? Have you confirmed the location? Could it be a scam? It's possible this is a test. Have you questioned that female student? Maybe it's a decoy they set up after they realized we were coming, just to test your reaction. If you show certainty, they'll back down and stop causing trouble."

"It doesn't matter, we'll find out tonight."

Kerry didn't really care; having a route was more convenient than blindly searching for it.

Having a specific target this time, the two went directly to the staff to pinpoint the location of the other dormitory.

I'm going to go there at the time Nao Satsuka mentioned.

Of course, this time there's no need for infiltration; they can simply conduct a ruthless room check.

Kerry and He Zhen were not idle all afternoon. Although they did not go near the other side in order not to alert the enemy, they still wandered around the teaching building again.

It wasn't until evening that the two of them, keeping track of the time, left the guesthouse where they were staying.

However, the two of them were unaware that a pair of eyes were watching them.

It was a small building not far from the reception building.

Erina Nakiri was frowning deeply, her thin golden eyebrows furrowed, her eyes, as white as violets, narrowed, and her teeth gently curled her pink lips.

"Young Miss, are you still watching?"

Hisako Shinto, standing next to her, peeked out with some concern.

"Grandfather must have been deceived."

Erina Nakiri wrapped her arms around her chest and gripped her other arm, her fingers lightly touching her skin.

P.S.: Three updates today! The images above are visible after refreshing the page!

Chapter 53 The Headmaster's Ruthless Search

Looking at her young mistress's displeased expression, Hisako Shinomiya sighed.

After seeing the two people being picked up by Senzaemon's men in the morning, Erina followed them all the way up the mountain.

When they tried to go in to see what was going on, the bodyguard at the door said that Senzaemon had given prior notice that no one was allowed to enter.

When the meeting ended, she went to ask her grandfather why he had seen those two people. Her grandfather didn't say anything, but told her not to worry about them, since they were now teachers at the school.

Erina wondered if her grandfather had been deceived. The teachers that Totsuki Culinary Academy had always employed were at least world-renowned Michelin-starred restaurant chefs or outstanding educators. How could they suddenly appoint two people they had never heard of before?

Moreover, those two people didn't look much older than the students.

But no matter what Erina said, Senzaemon wouldn't listen and instead adopted a serious attitude to lecture her.

This made Erina Nakiri feel even more aggrieved, as she felt directly empathizing with the children of those whose elderly relatives had been scammed by health product sellers.

The shady business of health supplements actually originated in Japan. It started in the early 2000s when Japan began promoting things like negative ions and various health technologies, while also circumventing legal loopholes to ruthlessly rip off the elderly with various magnetic therapy devices and health foods.

At that time, Japan was in the midst of the golden generation's retirement. They were all super beneficiaries of the seniority-based retirement system, meaning that every extra day they lived meant an extra pension. They also had a strange and mysterious trust in these unusual technologies. Of course, the most important factor was that their children were too busy with work to spend time with them, so they were easy targets for scams.

Erina has the mentality of trying to help a deceived elderly person see reality clearly, but instead gets scolded. She has been standing there angrily for half an hour.

Seeing the two leave, he immediately frowned and called out to Hisako.

"Let's go, Hisako calls a car, let's go see what's going on."

If these two are the kind of people who abuse their positions to cause trouble at school, we must stop them and show Grandpa what's what."

"Um... Miss Erina, didn't the Commander-in-Chief instruct you to participate in more activities these days? You should go to bed early."

The secretary looked around with some difficulty.

"I told you, don't call me 'Young Miss' when we're alone. And Hisako, aren't you listening to me?"

Erina Nakiri turned around and grabbed her secretary's chin. Hisako was essentially no different from Nao Sadazuka, who was also quite heavyweight. When she saw her young lady's magnificent face staring straight at her, she was so embarrassed that she got mosquito coil eyes.

"Yes...yes, Erina...Master...I'll take care of it right away."

...

On the other side, Kerry and his companion rode their small bicycles all the way to where they were.

However, before they even arrived, the two noticed something amiss. Just as they approached the dormitory, they saw a figure frantically running into the dormitory.

"They even set up sentries."

Kazuma frowned, and the two rode their little car directly to the door.

Kerry glanced at the small sign in front of the dormitory, which read "Hesheng Dormitory".

Kazuma went up and knocked on the door.

"Coming, coming, what's up?"

A voice answered from inside the house, and soon an old woman pushed open the door a crack, looking at Kerry and Zhen with some wariness.

"Excuse me, students, is there anything I can help you with?"

If the two of them hadn't both seen the figure rushing into the dormitory in a panic, they probably would have thought it was a normal reaction to someone suddenly appearing.

The other person seemed to be the dormitory manager. Although their words were relatively polite, their tone carried a questioning tone.

Kerry pointed to his name tag.

"Routinely check each dormitory to see if they have any prohibited items."

Kerry didn't care whether there was such a precedent or not, and started with the usual routine.

The old woman looked closely at Kerry's name tag, then seemed to hesitate for a moment.

"Um, I haven't heard the school mention any inspections lately."

Hearing this, He Zhen was displeased.

"If you gave advance notice, can it still be called an inspection? Look at you, as the dormitory manager of our college, how could you make such a formalistic mistake?"

We are an elite school, and we want our students to always be in top form. Your attitude makes us very worried that the students living here might also be influenced by the negative atmosphere you bring.

Even if such a student graduates, will they be able to take charge of the kitchen?

The dormitory supervisor never expected that she, at her advanced age, would be scolded like this by a kid who looked no more than a student, and her face immediately fell.

Pulling it down won't help. It's unlikely that the other party is forging it, and we don't know what they're doing. In the past, it was always a senior student or an older student in the dormitory who worked with the aunt to supervise the internal affairs. It was rare for a teacher to suddenly come and inspect like this.

"Fine! Fine! Fine! Go ahead and inspect if you want. I think this is ridiculous. The dorms are perfectly fine, yet you're still doing this. Don't you trust us?"

The dormitory supervisor spoke slowly, as if she wanted the people inside to hear her, and then footsteps could be heard from inside.

Under the watchful eyes of Kerry and He Zhen, the dormitory manager slowly opened the door and led the two inside.

"Come on, this is our hall, we all stay here... Wait, what are you doing?"

As the aunt walked toward the hall, she began to chatter on and on, but Kerry and Hezhen completely ignored her.

They immediately started rummaging through the cabinets near the entrance.

"What for? To check, of course."

Kazuma didn't even look up, but opened all the cabinets and scanned them one by one.

"Wait! That's not how you do inspections!"

"Shut up, our school has unlimited power!"
