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

Chisa shook her head: "I don't know them either, they just started talking to me out of nowhere..."

"Maybe they're some kind of wandering tourist?" Kohei speculated.

Lu Nan sat back down, somewhat speechless: "I thought something had happened. You woke me up just for this?"

Iori glanced out the window: "Not entirely. Another reason is that we're almost there."

……

Kitahara Ryokan is a well-known hot spring inn in the area, and it is also the hometown of Kitahara Iori.

At that moment, across the small square table, Iori's parents and younger sister, Shiori, were sitting.

"Welcome." Iori's father was wearing a kimono, his hands clasped in his pockets, looking very composed, unlike Iori at all.

"Welcome to Kitahara Inn." Iori's mother had a hairstyle that made people immediately think of the cliché, "Madam, your hairstyle is dangerous."

Xiao Shi sat properly in the middle.

Kitahara family

Chisa was the first to greet them: "It's been a long time, Uncle and Aunt."

"Chisa, it's been a long time."

“Oh my, Chisa has grown up quite a bit.” Iori’s mother said meaningfully, “Unlike some people, who still seem like they haven’t grown up at all.”

Iori's lips twitched.

Iori's father turned to look at Lunan and Kohei: "Who are these three?"

Lu Nan said, "Dai Miao and I are both friends of Yi Zhi, and we have always received Yi Zhi's 'care'. We came here specifically to visit."

The silly cat nodded: "That's right, meow~"

Iori's mother nodded: "What a handsome young man! You should be the one taking care of our Iori."

After getting Daimiao's permission, Xiaoshi reached out and picked Daimiao up. All the little toys in her room combined didn't feel as good as Daimiao.

Iori's father looked at the other one: "Is this also Iori's friend?"

“No, my name is Imamura Kohei.” Kohei placed one hand on his chest, his face full of seriousness: “I am Shiori’s real older brother.”

Iori's parents' bodies stiffened abruptly.

"Holy crap! What are you doing?!" Iori grabbed Kohei's collar, her face contorted in disbelief. "You're here to cause trouble, aren't you?!"

"Huh? That's not true at all."

"Wouldn't it be worse if there was no malicious intent?!"

A dangerous glint flashed in Iori's mother's eyes as she turned to the man sitting beside her: "Darling? Is there anything you want to say?"

Iori's father said with a serious expression, "It's alright, I will absolutely not admit it."

Lu Nan was shocked. It seemed that there was a reason why Iori was so abstract now. He originally thought that there was a problem with the old grave, but now it seemed more like a kind of genetic inheritance.

Iori's father looked at Chisa: "So what's the real situation?"

Chisa twitched her lips: "They're just friends from the club, right?"

Thank goodness she came. If she hadn't been there, besides Iori and Uncle Kohei, we would have had to ask Lu Nan. That guy, with his playful personality like Azusa, would definitely say something like, "I don't know either, maybe it's true, after all, Iori and Shiori don't look alike at all," which would just stir things up.

Although Kohei and Shiori don't actually look alike.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that this guy has already started secretly stirring things up, and he's been muttering something next to his aunt, seemingly some bad things about Iori.

It's strange, why is my aunt looking at me with increasingly odd expressions, like she's looking at her daughter...?

Iori gritted her teeth: "Having you guys as friends is such a blessing... Never mind that for now, Mom, where's my passport?"

Iori's mother shook her head: "I don't know, it's not with me. It must have been taken by Shiori."

Iori looked at Shiori: "Shiori, can you give it to me?"

Xiao Shian hugged the silly cat with a big smile on her face: "I'd rather die than give it to you."

Iori pulled Lunan and Kohei aside, intending to use moral blackmail: "But we're going to Palau next week, we can't let my situation delay our trip, can we?"

“No need, because my brother will stay here—” Koshino leaned closer, her expression gloomy: “He’ll stay here for the rest of his life.”

"You can be really scary sometimes..."

Lu Nan watched with interest as Iori and Koshino bickered, then felt as if someone was watching him. He turned his head and saw Iori's mother staring intently at him.

"Um, Auntie, is there something you need?" Lu Nan asked, somewhat puzzled.

Iori's mother said in a low voice, "No, I just wanted to confirm with you again whether that thing is true, whether Iori really said it..."

Lu Nan nodded repeatedly: "It's absolutely true, Auntie. I heard it with my own ears, it's 100% true."

Iori's mother couldn't stop smiling: "Great, great! I knew this kid wouldn't stay so hopeless forever. He's finally come to his senses. Thank you, Koji. Tell Auntie what you want to eat, and I'll go prepare it for you in a bit!"

Chapter 349 already said I'm not

"Thank you, Auntie. Just some home-style dishes will do." Lu Nan said that he was fine with anything and wouldn't be picky.

Kitahara's mother excitedly approached Kitahara's father, seemingly intending to tip him off.

Sometimes you can't help but push someone like Iori.

As for Chisa... in some ways she's actually much more oblivious than Iori, but she just doesn't realize it.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Iori seemed to have reached her limit: "Shiori! Just say what you want!"

Koshino smiled and said, "No."

Kitahara's father: "DSLR camera."

Kitahara's mother: "An excellent daughter-in-law."

Iori looked utterly exasperated: "Who asked you guys! By the way, is there something strange mixed in here?"

He turned to look at Lu Nan, who was whistling and looking out the window, avoiding his gaze.

That bastard really did snitch!

Although he didn't care, it's more accurate to say that he didn't really intend to hide it and would tell his parents sooner or later.

I'm worried that this will get back to Chisa and make her hide, but that's secondary for now. My passport is the most important thing right now, otherwise what will I do if I can't see my aunt... Auntie?

After putting the dork down, Xiao Shioren smiled and said, "Nan-ge, Chisa-jie, we've prepared towels. The hot spring is in the backyard."

Kitahara's father nodded: "Please enjoy yourself."

As they spoke, the three of them walked out of the room. Lu Nan also heard that Bei Yuan's mother seemed to be going to check the bank account.

Iori watched them walk away in despair, then slammed her fist on the ground in despair: "We only have a few days left before we have to leave!"

Chisa hesitated before saying, "Judging from Shiori's expression, it seems..."

Kohei nodded repeatedly: "A stubborn younger sister is not bad either."

Lu Nan said with a smile, "Actually, I think you should consider something else now, like whether your parents will choose an auspicious day or something."

Iori glared at her: "It's all your fault! I didn't plan to say it so soon! Right now, the most important thing is the passport! I'll explain things over there later!"

Chisa tilted her head in confusion. Why couldn't she understand what they were saying?

Iori scratched her head in distress: "Do you guys have any good ideas?"

After thinking for a moment, Chisa said, "For example, should I sincerely ask her for help? Or do some good deeds to gain her favor?"

She usually does this when she needs something from her sister, and it always works quite well.

Kohei shrugged: "Anyway, it's all about pleasing her."

Lu Nan held up one finger: "My suggestion is to just steal it, just like stealing a household registration book. Of course, I'm not implying anything, I'm just saying."

Silly Cat raised its hand: "Boss is right, meow!"

Iori stood up silently and said coldly, "Do I need to go to that extent? She's just throwing a tantrum like a child."

Chisa said with some concern, "But you should also consider Shiori's feelings..."

"I don't care about her!" Iori turned around: "I have my own concerns too! As a good older brother, I have to go and give her a good talking-to!"

With that, Iori opened the door and went out.

Chisa said with some concern, "Won't we start arguing?"

"Heh." Lu Nan couldn't hold back: "Easier said than done. I bet this guy won't be as good as he says. But if you're worried, why don't we go out and take a look together?"

After saying that, everyone secretly followed behind Iori.

"Shiori! Haven't you made enough of a scene?!"

Iori's voice came from around the corner, and everyone peeked out furtively.

Iori, prostrate on the ground, cried out in a pitiful voice, "I told you! I'll lick your shoes too!!"

……

Inside the lounge, Lu Nan, his two companions, and a cat sat silently gazing at each other around a small square table.

“I’ve already given her a good talking-to.” Iori turned her head.

Lu Nan almost lost his composure: "Whatever you say goes."

Kohei asked, "Where's your passport?"

Iori shrugged: "We've already got the spiritual aspect."

Silly Cat raised her hand: "But a passport is a material thing, meow."

“Dai-nyan is right, so…” Iori took out a map of the room with a serious expression: “I plan to sneak into Shiori’s room and take the things out.”

"They're getting physical so quickly!?" Kohei was somewhat shocked.

"Hey! That's right!" Lu Nan clapped his hands. "What about the household registration booklet?"

"...I'll steal it again next time."

"Tch, coward."
