In a crossover anime, do you believe that a machine spirit can defeat a fake human?

All the clues have come together.

After Saki Kawasaki left, the members of the Service Club parted ways in front of the station.

"Chen-kun," Yukino called out to him.

Chen Yi turned around.

“You just… were just standing by and watching someone die.” Yukinoshita gritted her teeth.

"Respect the fate of others. Under the snow, this place is different from the University of Tokyo."

Chen Yi looked at Yukinoshita, who had studied at Tokyo University for several years, but whose safety awareness was somewhat weak and who was also quite stubborn, and sighed slightly.

"When you are poor, you should cultivate your own virtue; when you are successful, you should help others." Under the snow, the life and death of others is a weight you cannot bear, but what about your own life? Even if you go back and beg your mother and sister, they will absolutely not agree.

PY: "I, Sky Striker Princess, my ability is the power of my thoughts"

Synopsis: "Having transmigrated to another world, you possess neither the combat prowess to rival an army nor the magical skill to destroy cities with a flick of your finger. How will you complete your mission?"

"...What do you mean you made all this equipment yourself? What do you mean you think you can build a Gundam with your bare hands?"

Zero: "You're right, but that's 'the power of my thinking'."

She tilted her head and gestured with her chin toward the gray-haired girl beside her.

"Lu Shi, go slap him twice."

In short, this is the story of a Sky Striker who, after obtaining the "Power of My Thoughts," creates various equipment and attacks people in another world.

PS: This book contains Deus Ex: Mechanism and some minor OOC (out-of-character) elements, but the author himself is a green-skinned orc, so I think all of this is reasonable.

Second-year high school student: Chapter 176 The Ideals Under the Snow

"Yukinoshita, do you know why Kawasaki-san does such a dangerous job?" Chen Yi chuckled, suddenly changing the subject.

"..."

"Because someone in their family is seriously ill and they urgently need money, that's the simple reason."

"...How did you know?" Yukinoshita was stunned, and could only offer this level of rebuttal.

“Just now, Kawasaki… didn’t my little brother say that we met once at the hospital?” Chen Yi raised his eyes, his wine-red eyes fixed on Yukinoshita.

"So what do you think was your stance in preventing her from applying for this job?" Chen Yi sighed.

"...But, the night shift..."

"As for the night shift I worked last semester, the hourly wage was 5000 yen, so the salary that Kawasaki-kun said is very high may actually be high enough to solve his immediate problem."

Even though I only worked there one night and burned the shop owner's shop to the ground, the shop owner still didn't pay me.

Oh, the store manager went in too. Hmm, if that's the case, this less-than-formal place has a bit of a gray area feel to it.

Chen Yi then thought, why not add Kawasaki-san on LINE when we meet tomorrow and remind her?

"Then why did you stop me from going with her?" Yukinoshita subconsciously bit her lip.

"I'm just advising you as a friend not to get involved in this mess. Yukinoshita, didn't what happened in Izu teach you to be respectful?"

I'm a native of Tokyo University, born and raised here for over twenty years, and I only needed a few months to adapt to this world. You've only been studying at Tokyo University for a few years and you've already forgotten what this world is like? Yukinoshita, aren't you a little too naive?

“Commander, normally speaking, the chances of an ordinary person with your resume surviving are no more than one in a thousand.”

Tsk, yeah, what a mattress, pseudo-human, fog-dwelling man, thunder crocodile, boiling man...

Kroos suddenly started telling a hellish joke, which swayed Chen Yi's thinking.

"..."

"Then why did you help Yotsuya in the first place? If what you're saying is true, then self-preservation is the best course of action, right?"

Huh? Is this something I need to do?

Yotsuya, who had been watching the show from the sidelines for a while, blinked and silently looked at Chen Yi.

Can I say it's because I need to understand this invisible threat in order to better survive?

Chen Yi was speechless for a moment, because from today's perspective, his so-called confidence at that time was basically based on an incomplete understanding of the world.

Of course, this is the same situation under the snow now.

"Under the snow, one must learn to act within one's capabilities."

"So, you mean you have the ability to help others but you're going to stand by and do nothing, while also preventing me from trying to help others? Or do you think I don't have the ability to help others? Chen, that's a double standard."

"Yukinoshita-kun, that's sophistry."

"Chen, this is my own choice. You just said that we shouldn't interfere too much with other people's choices, right?"

I didn't say that!

"Well, that's enough for the debate for now. It's getting late, see you tomorrow~" Yukinoshita's lips curled up slightly, and she left the train car without looking back.

"Chen-kun...see you tomorrow." Yotsuya also said goodbye in a low voice, she did not get off in Mihama Ward.

Chen Yi looked in the direction the two had left, sighed, then took out his phone and opened the contact list for the person whose name was Yukinoshita.

Let Miss Yukinoshita handle it. She definitely has more experience dealing with Yukinoshita than I do.

......

"So tired..." After returning home, Kasumigaoka collapsed onto the bed and gently massaged her shoulders.

Prolonged shooting can cause shoulder damage, especially for people who are less familiar with firearms.

"Drip-"

The phone beeped, and Kasumigaoka slowly dragged his tired body to reach for the phone.

Volume 4 has already begun printing and should be published around next Sunday.

It was a message from Machida, the editor.

Kasumigaoka glanced at it, placed the phone next to her pillow, and gently closed her eyes.

She is now a novelist with some fame, and publishing is a normal thing for her. With the royalties she receives, she can easily support herself even if she goes out to live alone.

...However, it's still too dangerous outside, and living alone means there's no one to look after me.

After turning over, Kasumigaoka suddenly seemed to remember something and picked up her phone again.

"I didn't even have a chance to ask why my junior took leave these past few days..." Kasumigaoka typed a few words, then remembered the bandages and gauze on Chen Yi's hand, and deleted all those probing questions.

'Junior, please take good care of your wound.'

He'll probably reply, after all, their relationship has gotten even closer.

...Well, maybe I'm just busy.

"Yes, thank you for your concern. By the way, are you going out tomorrow, senior?" Chen Yi replied quickly, seeing Kasumigaoka's message in less than two minutes.

"tomorrow......"

Kasumigaoka rubbed his shoulders again.

'Forget it, I'm not going tomorrow. I want to be lazy.'

"Hey junior, let's go shooting together again sometime, shall we? My shoulder's killing me."

She didn't use any grand excuses; she just acted coquettishly, like a lover.

......

When Yukino returned home, she found Yukino Haruno drinking in the living room, which was unusual for her.

"......elder sister?"

"Yukino is back."

Yukino glanced at the time; it was four in the afternoon.

"Your mother is waiting for you in the study."

She didn't say exactly what it was, but Yukino Yukinoshita's heart still skipped a beat.

Yukino looked up at her, her eyes clear and unfathomable, revealing no emotion.

"Hurry up and go in, don't keep Mother waiting."

She spoke slowly.

“…” Yukino nodded gently, glancing at the lit-up phone screen next to Haruno.

It appears to be a chat interface, but the content is not visible.

Without stopping, Xuexia bypassed the dining table and headed straight for the study.

"...Mother."

Yukino entered the study and saw her mother carefully flipping through a book. Although her movements were relaxed, they still revealed an imposing and dignified presence.

"Close the door."

The mother gently closed the book and placed it on the table.

"Click".

Yukino stood in front of the desk like a child who had done something wrong.

"...Your activities at school have already been told to me by Haruno. I don't deny your ideals, because noble qualities are just as valuable as shrewd methods for the Yukinoshita family."

The mother picked up her teacup and took a sip.

"But when you put your ideas into practice, have you conducted a risk assessment? Have you made the best choice based on rationality?" Yukinoshita's mother suddenly changed the subject.

"There are many ways to help, but it certainly doesn't include putting yourself in danger without any preparation. Ask yourself, do you have the ability to protect yourself under completely unknown conditions?"

This was a completely reckless act, as Yukinoshita's mother described it.

"So, I want to know, Yukino, do you really want to change something, or are you just trying to prove something to someone?"

To whom can you prove it? To the older sister you look up to, or to Chen Yi, who is so composed that he doesn't seem to be his age?

Yukino Yukinoshita's pupils suddenly contracted.

"I...I..." Her voice trembled, unable to utter a word of rebuttal.

"Whatever your purpose, remember, Yukino."

The coldness and sharpness in her mother's words vanished in an instant.

"There is still a lot you need to learn, such as calmness and truly rational thinking."

This is not just a matter of 'overestimating one's abilities'.

"I... understand." Yukinoshita lowered her head, shrinking into a corner like a wounded cub.

"Alright, call your sister over, and remember to close the door behind you."

Yukinoshita's mother picked up the book again and didn't look at her anymore.

"......Yes."

Grade 11: Chapter 177 Help

“If it’s a rifle malfunction…” On Sunday, Chen Yi arrived on time as usual to explain the knowledge points that Kawasaki Saki hadn’t finished explaining the day before.

Rio Futaba didn't go out today. Her reasons were that she needed to pack the embassy's order and that the omnidirectional robotic arm could be tested.

Therefore, Chen Yi only brought Mai Sakurajima with him.

The Service Club was much less crowded than yesterday. For example, Yotsuya Miko and Kasumigaoka were not there. He already knew yesterday that Kasumigaoka wouldn't be coming, and Yotsuya Miko was apparently taking care of her mother who had a fever.

The next day, only Kato and Yuihama remained to practice shooting, not counting Yukinoshita.

However, Yukino's condition seems a bit strange today? Chen Yi wondered, could it be that the young lady put pressure on her when she went back last night, and she hasn't recovered yet?

"Good morning, Mr. Chen." Noticing his gaze, Yukinoshita gave a brief greeting.

"Good morning, Yukinoshita-san."

Chen Yi answered casually, then watched as she found an empty spot and began shooting at the target with her pistol held horizontally.
