Crossover Anime: Miss, please don't do this, I still have a silly cat to raise.

Kaguya Shinomiya, sitting on the sofa, turned her head and said quietly.

Fujiwara Chika's smile froze, then she guiltily turned her gaze away: "What is Kaguya-chan talking about? I don't understand."

Kaguya Shinomiya put down her teacup and said calmly, "I've already persuaded my aunt and uncle to go and rest. Now it's just the two of us here, so..."

Kaguya Shinomiya grabbed Chika Fujiwara's shoulder: "Explain yourself properly. What exactly did you go out to do, and... what did you mean by saying 'Kaguya, you can't be the district head anymore' on the phone?"

Fujiwara Chika chuckled awkwardly, "Well... I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I'll go back to my room first..."

Kaguya Shinomiya snapped her fingers, and Hayasaka Ai hoisted Fujiwara Chika onto her shoulder.

"If you don't explain yourself clearly today, I'll send a picture of you drooling in your sleep to your boyfriend!"

"Waaah, no!"

……

Just a week after the Corpse Beast returned to its hometown, the new generation of Peek a Boo held a small meeting.

"What's wrong?" Lu Nan asked, holding the silly cat, somewhat puzzled.

As soon as I got off work this afternoon, Iori and the others called me over, and even told me to bring Daimyo along.

At this moment, everyone was sitting around the square table with serious expressions... Actually, only Iori and Kohei were serious; the rest were somewhat bewildered.

Iori cleared her throat and said, "We've recently noticed something amiss with some of our seniors."

"A sense of incongruity? What do you mean? Have you been possessed by a fake person?" Seeing that she was so busy meeting deadlines that her head was spinning, she subconsciously blurted out this month's topic.

“What the hell is this fake human? I think it might be a ghost.” Lu Nan said seriously, “Well, I know a black slave… a guy with some ability, he should be able to handle it.”

Chisa rubbed her throbbing temples. It seemed like the proportion of abnormal people in the group had increased since Mana left. Was this really going to be a problem...?

Kohei shook his head and raised his first finger: "No, it's not that simple. First of all, the senior who was once very strong has become very weak."

"That's alright. Maybe you've been sick lately and haven't been sleeping well?"

Then Kohei raised his second finger: "Secondly, you know Anzai-senpai, right? He suddenly lost weight."

Lu Nan thought for a moment and remembered. It was the heaviest one in the club, Senior Anzai. He used to be chubby and had a very kind smile, but recently he seems to have... indeed lost weight.

Banami shrugged: "But what if it's just that Anzai-senpai is on a diet lately?"

Kohei crossed his arms and nodded: "What you said makes sense. So... Iori, I'm leaving you to me."

Iori nodded and said in a deep voice, "Do you remember that party a couple of days ago?"

"It started at six o'clock? I remember, so what? Oh right, your grandson still owes me two drinks back then," Lu Nan said, somewhat annoyed.

Iori waved her hand: "Let's not talk about this. Didn't you guys notice anything wrong with the messages in the group chat back then?"

He placed his hands on the table and leaned forward: "At that time, Senior Ah Shou said, 'I'm sorry, I can't come today!'"

Lu Nan's eyes widened suddenly as he stood up: "Holy crap?! What's going on?! Is Senior going to die?!"

Hanami looked pained: "How did you even get that answer?!"

Iori said with a serious expression, "That's how it is. I think we need to figure out the cause of the problem."

Kohei raised his hand: "No objections."

Lu Nan raised his hand: "This is indeed a very important matter."

The silly cat raised its paw: "Agreed, meow."

Banami rolled her eyes: "Does it even matter if you all agree with what Chisa and I think?"

Iori stood up abruptly and wrote four lines on the small whiteboard behind her, then tapped it: "These are the only three reasons I can think of right now."

①. Sick

②. Suffered a serious illness

③. Suffered from a serious illness

④. Contracted a sexually transmitted disease

"There are actually four of them, aren't there?"

"Has this guy been so terrified that he's lost his mind?"

"What the heck is that last one?!"

Chisa sighed, barely able to contain herself: "I think you only listed one reason."

She scratched her head, somewhat puzzled as to why she was discussing this kind of thing with this group of people: "And it's just missing one party, it's perfectly normal, right?"

Kohei immediately rejected the idea: "No, this is actually a very serious situation."

Lu Nan nodded: "After all, those guys treat parties as an important part of their lives."

Iori held up one finger: "Let me give you an example, like if you own a dog."

Chisa thought for a moment, and in her imagination, a cute little dog appeared beside her: "Like when my dog ​​refuses to eat? I think meals and parties can't be treated the same..."

"It's like your pet dog suddenly stopping breathing one day!"

Chisa, watching the dog in her imagination suddenly kick its legs and go to enjoy itself, looked on in horror: "No, it can't be that serious, can it!?"

Lu Nan looked anxious: "The situation is extremely dangerous!"

"Where's the danger?! They're already dead!" Banai couldn't hold back anymore.

Chisa suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "But I don't think they're sick. I overheard them saying something like, 'Ten hours a week is normal.' when we were chatting earlier."

"Ten hours a week?"

"Could it be that she's on a diet?"

Lu Nan stroked his chin: "Could it be that you've found a girlfriend?"

Banami's lips twitched: "How exactly does Azusa-nee usually treat you...?"

Kohei pondered, "But then again, if it's not illness, what could be the reason?"

Chisa remained silent: "Maybe he just had something to do and couldn't come."

Lu Nan shook his head: "That's not right. Those people are the kind who would come drinking even if they didn't have a date."

Iori agreed, saying, "Indeed, how could breathing stop along with that?"

Banami felt that this club had no future: "What exactly is alcohol to you guys...?"

Chisa sighed and stood up: "If you're so worried, why don't you just go and ask the reason?"

"Makes sense!"

"No problem."

"But I haven't seen my seniors for the past few days."

"Sorry to bother you~"

Just then, a familiar voice came from outside the door; it was Senior Ashou.

Lu Nan and his group rushed outside: "Seniors, you're still alive!"

"Is he out of the ICU?!"

"Is the STD completely cured?"

The three seniors smiled wearily, as if they had no strength left to reply.

After catching his breath several times, Senior Ashou said, "What are you kids talking about? We're perfectly fine."

He coughed twice, then said again, "I've just been busy with special lecture notes for elective courses lately, it's nothing."

Lu Nan looked at his seniors, who were barely able to stand, and hesitated. Were they really alright? Had something happened?

Chisa also chimed in: "Do we still have to go to school during summer vacation?"

"Is your mechanical engineering department really that complicated?" Banai breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that she wasn't in the mechanical engineering department.

Senior Ah Shou waved his hand: "To put it bluntly, it's just using the experience research lab as a pretext to help the professor with odd jobs."

Chisa asked, "I remember that we'd be assigned to different research labs after we entered fourth grade, right?"

Senior Ashou gave a weak smile: "Haha, yes, it's for writing my graduation thesis."

Suddenly, the three seniors remembered something and looked at the group of people who were bickering together.

"Speaking of which, you guys are in the same major as us, right?"

"Ah, yes, they're all mechanics."

"Oh, I see."

The seniors nodded, and where no one could see, the three of them exchanged a strange glance and revealed a very eerie smile.

The moment Lu Nan turned around, he quickly reverted to his harmless demeanor.

Senior Ashou said with a smile, "In that case, why don't you come and take a look?"

The other two seniors chimed in.

"Make sure the professor remembers what you said as soon as possible, it will be beneficial for you when you are assigned a research lab later."

"When you don't have enough credits, the professor might be able to help you out."

Upon hearing about the credits, Iori and Kohei immediately perked up and agreed to go along.

Lu Nan sensed something was wrong; his hunter's intuition told him something was very wrong, like encountering a dung monster while out hunting.

Something's not right ahead. It looks like the Golden Lion is riding a Crimson Armored Beast and wielding a Mud Dragon.

(For those who haven't played or haven't reached that point yet, let me explain: it's like encountering a monster with an extremely strong aggression, whose attacks inflict burning and leave droppings everywhere. The droppings slow you down and inflict burning, and after being attacked, your inventory is locked so you can't use potions.)

Lu Nan tightened his grip on Dai Miao, his gaze shifting as he said, "Well, I still have work to do here, so..."

Senior Ah Shou patted Lu Nan's shoulder: "Hey, what are you saying, Lu Nan? Although you usually pass your exams, I remember that because you always sleep in class, your participation grade isn't high enough, right? Without credits, graduation might be a problem..."

Lu Nan paused, silently placed the doe in Banami's arms, and said in a tone as if entrusting his child to someone, "Banami, I will let the manager know in advance. I'm entrusting the work of the doe and me to you. I will come back, probably."
