Crossover anime, Hachiman's childhood friend's growth diary

Yeah, yeah, I'm a monster. If I don't leave, Hachiman Hachiman will eat me!

Thinking back to the nursery rhymes that occasionally appeared at school last semester, Hachiman couldn't help but chuckle.

however.

What happened next surprised him. Despite hearing his companion's advice, Wakaba Mutsu didn't distance himself; instead, he moved even closer to him.

"Hey, can you tell me your name?"

Too close, too close!

The last time I saw a girl with such a lack of boundaries was the last time.

With a faint scent of milk lingering around his nose, Hachiman had no choice but to take a half-step back: "Um, shouldn't you state your own name before asking someone else's name?"

He regretted it as soon as he said it, because it meant that if the other person said his name, he would also have to introduce himself!

"Oops, sorry, I forgot. Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Wakaba Mutsumi. Now it's your turn, right?"

"...Hikigaya Hachiman."

He answered with a sigh.

"Hachiman, why have you been sighing since the beginning?"

Why are you sighing? Don't you know why?

The girl rested her chin on her hand, swaying as she examined Hachiman's face. Wait a minute, is there something on his face? And why did he call her by her name right away?

Honestly, Hachiman has a hard time accepting girls who are frivolous... or rather, overly enthusiastic and hunched over.

More importantly, for some reason, one could always sense a faint sense of something strange about this girl named Wakaba Mutsu.

"No, you're mistaken. I didn't sigh."

"Look, Hachiman, you're sighing again."

Hearing Hikigaya spout nonsense with a straight face, Wakaba Mutsumi adorably pouted, causing the former's gaze to involuntarily drift towards the other's soft lips.

No, stop right now! If this keeps up, I'll become a lolicon!

Just as he was desperately looking away, Wakaba Mutsu cheerfully stretched out her right hand: "Listen to me, Hachiman, I have a way to cure the sighing disease. I learned it from TV."

"Wait a minute, this isn't an illness."

Hikigaya offered a weak explanation.

"It's an illness!"

Ruo Yemu continued relentlessly.

"Hachiman, if you draw the character '人' on your palm and then swallow it, you won't sigh anymore."

"Uh, that's a way to relieve tension, right?"

"What? Is that so?" Wakaba Mutsu was taken aback for a moment, then broke into a hearty laugh. "Well, it's all the same, pretty much the same!"

To be honest, this kind of silly and overly enthusiastic girl is the type he can't handle the most, so Hachiman chose to retreat.

"Excuse me, could I be alone for a moment?"

After saying that, he immediately picked up the chair and walked to another place.

"Ugh?"

Perhaps because she had never seen such an unsociable child before, Ruoye Mu's adorable face showed a surprised expression, while the other two children stood up for her.

"Xiao Mu, that guy is ignoring you. Do you want me to teach him a lesson?"

"No." Wakaba Mutsumi blinked and slowly moved towards Hachiman. "Hachiman, want to play games? We brought a lot of board games."

"No need, you guys play."

Hachiman and these people were destined to meet only once, and even if he tried to build a good relationship now, it wouldn't make any difference. So he simply adopted a self-destructive attitude and prepared to spend the rest of the time in a daze.

At that moment, another equally lovely girl walked out of the room. She had light blue pigtails and her gaze immediately locked onto Ruoye Mu.

"Seriously, Mu, what are you doing here? I've been looking for you for ages."

"Xiangzi, you're here to play too?"

"Yes, Father is coming over to discuss business."

As she said this, a young man appeared behind Toyokawa Shoko.

The other person's appearance was not handsome, but rather ordinary; he wouldn't attract much attention on the street.

He doesn't look like an actor. If that's the case, he must be a rich person from somewhere.

The man's gaze swept quickly across the room, lingering on Hachiman for a few seconds before he squatted down and said to his daughter, "Shoko, you can rest here for a bit. Daddy will take you home after work."

"Yes, Father, I will stay here properly."

"Good~"

The father and daughter seem to have a good relationship.

"That's perfect, let's play hide-and-seek, Hachiman, do you want to join us?"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Mutsuya sent an invitation. Just as Hachiman was about to refuse with the same reason, he heard the man say, "Ah, you must be the person Mr. Saito brought. I heard that you are quite the actor despite your young age."

"Ugh..."

This time, it was Hachiman's turn to be surprised.

He never expected that someone like the other person would know him, an insignificant elementary school student. Even more unexpectedly, he never expected that Saito Ichigo, that bastard, would spout nonsense in a place he didn't know about.

Oh well, I guess I'll just treat this as part of my job.

To save face for Ichigo Saito, Hachiman Hikigaya couldn't be too cold, so he could only reply, "Um, hello, I'm Hachiman Hikigaya."

"Mmm." Fortunately, the man wasn't interested in Hikigaya. He gently said to his daughter, "Shoko, you're older here, so you need to take good care of the others."

"I will, Father!"

Toyokawa Shoko paused for a moment, then nodded vigorously. Just from the child's admiring eyes, one could tell that this guy was definitely a doting father.

Tsk tsk tsk, it's best to stay away from her.

Hikigaya secretly made up his mind.

"I'll be going now, please be careful."

Goodbye, Father.

"Goodbye, Uncle." After saying that, Ruoye Mu sighed helplessly, "I was born a month older than Xiangzi, how could you forget again, Uncle?"

"I'm sorry, Father must have misremembered."

Toyokawa Shoko made an embarrassed gesture.

"It's okay, let's play together!"

243 Why are you two so close?

When it came to the fact that her best friend's father had forgotten her birthday, Wakaba Mutsu didn't feel much emotion.

In the following time, the five children, including Hachiman, gathered together, preparing for a dark game of hide-and-seek in the entire villa.

Come to think of it, if you're the first one to be eliminated, you probably won't be forced to sign any humiliating treaties, right?

Thinking about all these random things, Hachiman's thoughts drifted further and further away, but fortunately, a sudden voice pulled him back to reality.

The unfamiliar boy glanced at Hachiman without saying a word: "Muto, before we begin, let's decide who will be the ghost."

"Sure, how about we decide with rock-paper-scissors?"

Wakaba Mutsu excitedly raised her hands, looking like she couldn't wait to start the game.

"Rock, paper, scissors is fine, but why not just let that guy be 'it'? He looks no different from a ghost."

Upon hearing this, Hachiman frowned slightly. He didn't like children to begin with, let alone such a troublesome brat.

Just as he was preparing to retaliate, Wakaba Mutsu stepped forward first:

"Oda-kun, why are you saying such unpleasant things!"

After being sternly warned by his companion, Xiaotian was initially puzzled, but immediately retorted, "What's going on? Why are you taking the side of someone you've only known for a short time? We're good friends!"

Forced to choose between a "good friend" and "someone she's only known for a short time," Ruoye Mu's confidence plummeted, and in the end, she could only weakly say:

"I... in short, it's not good to talk badly about friends..."

The situation suddenly became rather bad.

To ease the tense atmosphere, Toyokawa Shoko and the other girl hesitated for a moment before stepping forward to smooth things over:

"Muku, Oda-kun didn't mean that."

"That's right, it's all that boy's fault. Mu, Xiaotian, can you please stop arguing?"

"Ugh?"

Toyokawa Shoko met her companion's eyes in surprise, as if questioning why she had just made such unfounded accusations against others.

The one who just made a mistake was clearly Oda-kun, wasn't he?

Because being the ghost is quite difficult, people usually draw lots to decide who gets to be the ghost when playing hide-and-seek. Oda-kun's statement was clearly meant to make things difficult for that boy.

Observing everyone's performance, Hachiman was not disappointed at all; on the contrary, he was secretly pleased.

He only joined the game reluctantly because he didn't want to cause trouble for Ichigo Saito, but as long as the interaction between children isn't too excessive, it's actually fine.

and so.

Now, on the contrary, it's a golden opportunity for him to escape.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I don't want to be a ghost. In that case, I'd better quit."

Deliberately speaking coldly and not giving anyone a chance to dissuade him, Hachiman walked out of the room with his head down.

The four people inside the room looked at each other in bewilderment.

"That guy just got away like that?" the boy named Oda said in disbelief. "Then, Mumu, let's keep chasing him..."

"It's all Oda's fault!"

Before Oda could finish speaking, Wakaba Mutsu shouted and rushed out of the room.

"Xiao Mu?!"

After seeing her friend run out the door, Toyokawa Shoko hesitated for a second before following her.

For some reason, even the last girl stomped her foot and shouted angrily, "Idiot Xiaotian, I knew I shouldn't have played with you!"

"what!?"

...

Alone in the corridor, Hachiman pondered where to kill time.

This villa is ridiculously large. The area of ​​the first floor alone is estimated to be more than 200 square meters. The first floor is a huge reception room for adults to chat and discuss business, while the second floor consists of ordinary living rooms and some functional rooms for entertainment.

As he passed by several rooms with their doors tightly shut, even without listening carefully, he could occasionally hear the faint clattering of mahjong tiles.

Since this villa has so many mahjong rooms, it's reasonable to assume it also has "that" kind of place!

With anticipation, Hachiman arrived at the room at the end of the corridor.

The door wasn't locked. As expected, there was a huge LED screen on the wall, and below it, on the table, were all sorts of video game devices.

This is the game room!

Hachiman's eyes lit up, but just as he touched the controller, ready to find a game he liked, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.

Followed by.

The half-open door was suddenly flung open.

"Hachiman, so you were here all along?"

"what?"

Outside the door stood Wakaba Mutsu, whom they had just met, while Toyokawa Shoko followed behind her, panting.
