Crossover Anime: Randomly Setting Up a Stall with Binchotan Charcoal

"Little Binchotan, these shoes are so cute today. You can't wear them when you go out to play anymore."

"Mmm, my brother bought me bunny shoes yesterday, they're so warm."

The two lovely people chatted very well until summer called the little one back.

"Charcoal, I'm home~"

"Okay, brother, we're going back now. Goodbye, sister."

On the way back, the little guy was all smiles, even happier than yesterday.

This is an experience I've never had before. I never knew that sharing food with others was more enjoyable than eating it myself. I guess that's why my brother started selling things at a stall. When I grow up, I want to be a chef like him and set up a stall too.

#@#

Time flew by and it was noon.

The three members of the Service Department met again in the activity room.

However, while the two girls ate bento boxes and shumai, Hiratsuka Shizuka could only miserably eat sandwiches with coffee.

"Teacher, why are you late today? Did you not get any shumai from the shop owner?"

"Let me tell you, today's shumai is so delicious! The boss prepared two new flavors, they're really tasty."

Tuanzi's tone was quite excited, and she looked like she was savoring what she had just said.

Hiratsuka Shizuka smiled gently. "Who said I didn't get to eat shumai? I bet the one I did eat was the most delicious."

"I know it's glutinous rice flavored, and I even got to eat it."

"By the way, did you see the boss's sister today? Isn't she cute?" She blinked and looked at the two of them.

Tuanzi nodded in agreement: "The little girl is indeed cute and sensible. She even helped her brother set out the table and chairs. I wanted to help, but I didn't have to."

"Haha, I knew it! You guys don't know, little sister has a very special name, it's called..."

Yukinoshita spoke slowly, "Binchotan, we know."

"Ah?"

"This morning, we couldn't resist playing with the little girl because she was so cute, and now we're friends with her. We even added her brother on Line, and we've made plans to buy her a dog after school as a surprise."

"Do you like dogs? Hmm, wait for me after class, I'll go too."

"Huh?" Tuanzi looked at her in confusion. Wasn't this teacher someone who didn't like small animals?

Hiratsuka Shizuka said righteously, "How can I, as a teacher, feel at ease letting such a lovely student go shopping with a young man from the streets? Of course I'll go with him."

"Tch, the teacher just wants to play with little girls." Yukinoshita couldn't help but be sarcastic. "How old are you? You have time to play with little girls. Why don't you try dating Mr. Natsumi? That way we'll have an endless supply of shumai."

"..." Hiratsuka Shizuka paused, then realized it wasn't entirely impossible.

Chapter 12 Contacting Tuanzi and Buying a Dog

The afternoon sunlight pierced the cabin crookedly.

Xiao Binchotan groggily opened his eyes.

She never used to take a nap, but after eating a full lunch at her brother's house, she would feel sleepy.

In a hazy state, the big blue head instinctively looked towards Xia Tian.

Seeing her older brother playing with something called a cell phone, Xiao Binchangtan felt inexplicably at ease. It felt like when she was a child, her grandmother would be doing things, and she would quietly watch from the sidelines.

In just two days, she had already gotten used to the sense of security that came from having her brother by her side, and she was afraid of going back to being alone.

"Xiao Bei, get up!" Xia Tian said with a smile.

Little Binchotan got up, rubbed his eyes, and mumbled, "Brother~ is it time for dinner?"

summer:"......"

Is the little guy still not full? He ate a big, round belly at lunchtime.

Before Xia Tian could speak, Xiao Binchotan became embarrassed and gave an awkward smile, "Brother, I just dreamed about eating shumai. It was a huge shumai, bigger than my head. Pukashu and I couldn't finish it no matter how much we ate."

"Charcoal, do you want to eat shumai? I'll make you dinner, the biggest shumai in the universe."

Xiao Binchangtan shook his head. "Brother, shumai is for selling to make a little money, right? We should just eat rice. I like rice."

"Then your brother will go out to buy groceries. You stay home and wait patiently, okay?"

Summer put down her phone, went over to help pick up the belt, and tied it on the small binchotan charcoal.

Little Binchotan spread her arms wide to cooperate, and her bow tie had been perfectly neat these past two days, thanks not only to her brother but also to her older sister Jing.

After tying the bow, the little guy picked up the 'bincho charcoal' and tied it on his head.

"Brother, Xiao Bei can also buy groceries. I'll go with you!" Xiao Bei Changtan looked at Xia Tian with his big, bright eyes full of anticipation.

"This time, your brother won't be driving his tricycle out. Tan Tan will stay home and keep a close eye on things."

"Good~"

Upon hearing this, the little guy hesitated for a moment before nodding. The tricycle was his brother's tool for making money, so it couldn't be lost and had to be kept in good condition.

Keeping small batches of charcoal at home makes me feel safe during the summer.

The security of the villa area is beyond doubt. Even if we leave for a short while, Xiao Binchotan is so well-behaved that we don't have to worry about her running around in the summer.

This trip was planned to surprise the little one.

#@#

By the time I arrived at my destination by taxi, it was already an hour after the students had finished class.

Waiting in front of the pet store in the summer.

"Woof woof woof!" A small dog ran out from the sidewalk.

"Wait for me, Sabre!" A hurried voice came from behind.

She sported her familiar pink bun hairstyle, and wore a tracksuit with shorts, looking both cute and very pretty. Hiratsuka Shizuka was also with her.

Summer turned around and quickly grabbed the dog leash.

"We're saved! Sabre was running around again. Huh? It's Xia Jun. Sorry to keep you waiting."

Yui Yuigahama jogged over.

"No, I just arrived."

Taking the dog leash, Tuanzi pointed to Hiratsuka Shizuka and introduced, "That's Xia-kun, this is our school's teacher, Hiratsuka Shizuka-sensei."

"We've met before, summer, hello Hiratsuka-sensei."

"I apologize for disturbing you, Mr. Xia."

After a brief self-introduction, the three started chatting.

Hiratsuka Shizuka said earnestly, "Natsu-kun, I received some shumai from Binchotan-chan this morning. I'd like to give her a gift in return. I wonder what kind of gift she likes?"

Xia Tian waved her hand and refused, saying, "No, it's just a shumai, this is too much of a waste."

"Yes, I really like the little binchotan charcoal. Consider it a gift from my older sister. Does the little guy like the doll?" Hiratsuka Shizuka insisted; she genuinely liked the little guy.

Seeing her say that, Xia Tian thought for a moment and replied, "If it's a small doll, Binchotan would probably like Pukashu?"

"Pukash?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka looked puzzled. What is this?

When summer arrives and I don't know how to describe it, I scratch my head and say, "A frog would be fine too, the little guy likes frogs..."

Tuanzi frowned, then suddenly interjected, "Isn't Pukashu a little guy with a puff-shaped head and a swimming ring? I used to watch that on a children's show."

“Yes, yes, that’s what Pukashu looks like.” Xia Tian nodded, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. There really is a Pukashu anime.

"Anime character?" Hiratsuka Shizuka looked puzzled, having never seen it before.

Tuanzi smiled and nodded: "It's normal that the teacher hasn't seen it. I watched this anime when I was a kid. It's been airing for over ten years. It might be hard to find related merchandise now."

"I understand, Natsumi. Let's exchange LINE accounts. I'll give the charcoal to the young headman once I find Pukashu."

Hiratsuka Shizuka smiled, her gaze fixed on Xia Tian.

"No problem." Xia Tian had no choice but to take out her phone again.

After adding each other on Line, Hiratsuka Shizuka waved her hand and said, "Well then, Natsuki-kun, I have to go now. You two chat."

After saying that, Hiratsuka Shizuka left in a hurry.

The dumpling was left disheveled in the wind.

Teacher, this is why I came along, as you said you were worried. Why did you leave as soon as you got my contact information?

Could it be that Yukinoshita was right, the teacher really did come for Natsume-san... but shouldn't they have talked more in person?

"Tuanzi, how much does it cost to raise a Shiba Inu here? What procedures are required?"

"No need, Xia Jun. Do you want to buy a Shiba Inu? Do you want a white or black one?"

Chapter 13 The Puppy's Food Bowl: Charcoal Wants to Try Dog Food

After half an hour,

In the summer, I brought back a few bags of dog food to the villa. Other large items, such as the kennel, which I couldn't take with me, I had the store deliver. Also, a two-month-old Akita Shiba Inu came back with me.

The classic red Shiba Inu is the same breed as the puppy that Xiao Binchotan later encountered.

The dog is so fat it looks like a little piglet; even a slight step can trap its bottom.

When you open the gate to the yard in the summer, you'll see Xiao Binchotan sitting on a small stool, staring intently at the tricycle in the garage, his eyes barely blinking.

Hearing the noise, Xiao Beichangtan suddenly turned his head.

I looked up and saw summer, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Charcoal, I'm back!" Summer said with a smile.

"Brother, welcome back."

Little Binchotan charcoal, with its short legs, runs towards summer.

"Wait a minute, look at what this is."

The little guy's eyes were filled with surprise when he saw the Shiba Inu puppy that Xia Tian brought over.

Wow~ Chubby little puppy~

The little Binchotan reached out his small hand and touched it.

The Shiba Inu seemed to know this was its future owner, and stuck out its tongue to lick Binchotan's palm.

Xiao Binchotan was even happier to receive a response.

"Charcoal, do you like this dog?"

"Porridge~ Brother, what's the dog's name~"

"You can name it, and you'll be responsible for looking after our house from now on!"

"The dog is chubby, so we'll call him Rice Bowl from now on."

After thinking hard for a while, Xiao Beichangtan happily said a name, and then rubbed the dog, quite satisfied.

"Rice bowl, rice bowl, from now on you will be called rice bowl."

The dog kept rubbing against the small charcoal box, seemingly quite pleased with its name.

Summer watched with a smile as Xiao Binchotan interacted with his dog in the front yard, their playful noises adding a lot of life to the otherwise empty villa.

But you can tell the little girl really loves puppies; she even brings them to eat and uses her old, worn-out wooden bowl as a dog bowl.

"Wow~"

"Is your rice bowl hungry too?"

"Wang Wang Wang! Wang Wang Wang!"

The puppy wagged its tail as if it were talking to the little charcoal maker.

The little guy touched it, then turned to look at Xia Tian, ​​"Brother~ what do you eat from the rice bowl? Should I share half of my rice with it?"
