Crossover Anime: Randomly Setting Up a Stall with Binchotan Charcoal

mmp#@#

Xiao You cursed Xiao Qian countless times in her heart, but still opened her mouth under the expectant gaze of Xiao Beichangtan.

"Um?!!"

The moment Xiao You tasted the pufferfish, she was shocked. This uncooked fish was just as good as the owner's cooking.

"good to eat!"

"Haha~"

Seeing the change in her expression, the three of them, including the young platoon leader Ayako, laughed.

Little Sister You is so silly; if it were poisoned, the chef would already be lying down.

"Charcoal, let's eat too."

"Mmm, let's eat lamb~" Little Beichangtan was unusually excited.

I was starving after playing around at school all afternoon, and the smell of food made my mouth water.

"Okay, let's start with the lamb." Aya picked up a lamb roll.

Little Binchotan pointed to the chili soup, "Ayako-neechan, I want it spicy~"

Ayako was taken aback. This little guy had such a strong palate. "Okay, little guy, aren't you afraid of spicy food?"

"Hehe, I like spicy food, but my brother won't let me eat too much." Little Beichangtan scratched his head sheepishly.

"Children's digestive systems aren't fully developed, so they shouldn't eat too much spicy food. The lamb is cooked." Lingzi rinsed it a few times, then picked it out and put it in the little guy's dipping sauce.

"Be careful of the burn."

"Hmm~~" Xiao Binchangtan picked up a piece of mutton and blew on it.

It feels about right, and happiness comes in just one bite. "Hehe~ Sheep is so delicious~"

Having tasted the flavor of mutton, even the little guy Pleasant Goat can't stand it anymore and has become a staunch supporter of Big Bad Wolf.

"Sister Xiaoyou, you should try some too."

"okay!"

Look how much the little charcoal eater enjoys it!

Xiao You couldn't resist any longer and dipped the mutton in the broth a few times.

She likes to eat it in clear broth, simply dipped in soy sauce, and looks so satisfied.

It was a tiny bit less delicious than the owner's cooking, but it was still very tasty.

"good to eat!"

"really not bad!"

Ayako added extra mutton, and Kobinchotan clearly liked it.

The meal took an hour.

Xiao Binchotan, having eaten his fill, rubbed his tummy and stopped eating.

Xiao You leaned back on the sofa, completely satisfied, with a relaxed, carefree expression.

Ayako took them back to school to pick up the dog, and then went straight home.

"I'm back!"

"Charcoal, welcome back!"

Upon receiving a response, Little Binchotan looked over with delight and ran over with her short legs, exclaiming, "Oh, Yukino-neechan, you're back too!"

"I was afraid you little one would go hungry, so I had to come back and see what delicious food Ayako-neechan had prepared for you." Yukino patted the little binchotan's bulging belly, which clearly showed he had eaten quite a bit.

"There are sheep, poisonous fish, and delicious 'Hum Hum' meat."

"A poisonous fish?"

Little Binchotan puffed out his cheeks, imitating a pufferfish, and said, "Mmm, it's the puffy fish that Sister Yu used to eat. Sister Ayako said the meat isn't poisonous and you can eat it. It's so fresh!"

"Haha~"

Yukino was charmed by the little one's cuteness and couldn't help but pinch her cheeks.

After feeding him for so long in the summer, the little guy's face has finally gotten fuller, and his chubby cheeks are so adorable.

Summer now also likes to pinch her little face.

"Charcoal, come and see, your big sister brought you a gift. Can you guess what it is?" Yukino pulled Little Binchotan into the living room.

"Wow~" Little Binchotan suddenly exclaimed, extremely excited, and ran towards the pet carrier.

"Kitty~ Sister, this is a kitten."

Yukino smiled; it was the Ragdoll cat she and Yui had bought from the pet store.

If I let Xiao Binchotan take care of it, I can openly pet the cat myself.

"Charcoal, this is a Ragdoll cat, do you like it?"

"Mmm, the cat is so pretty." Little Binchotan's eyes sparkled; he clearly adored it.

"You can take care of the cat from now on. Let's give the cat a name."

"Little rice grains, the cat is as white as rice."

"Okay, okay, let's call it Xiaomili (Little Rice Grain)."

Yukino released the kitten and gently placed it in Binchotan's hand. "Tan-tan, come and pet me."

"Hehe, Xiaomili is so well-behaved."

Little Binchotan was overjoyed, his little face beaming with happiness.

Holding the kitten in her arms, she gently stroked it with her little hands.

"Hehe, it's so fluffy and warm~"

The cat was very docile, and even rolled over on its back in the little guy's arms.

"Good boy/girl~"

Little Binchotan was overjoyed and couldn't help but rub his face against the kitten.

Now that I have both a cat and a dog, I can walk one on each arm when I go out. How wonderful!

"Charcoal, millet grains are more fragile than rice bowls, so you have to take good care of it," Yukino said with a smile, petting the kitten. Ragdoll cats aren't very healthy, but she felt at ease leaving the little guy in her care.

"Yeah~ Sister, don't worry. When brother comes back, he'll give the cat a Devil Fruit, and it'll be healthy and able to eat two bowls of dog food in one meal. It's so easy to feed a cat these days."

Little Binchotan had seen his brother list the Devil Fruits; there were several hundred of them.

Some of the older brothers didn't want to take it back, looking disgusted.

For example, the Human-Human Fruit in its commoner form, the older brother tried feeding it to a tricycle, but the tricycle wouldn't eat it.

"..." Yukino was speechless. Only you two siblings don't take Devil Fruits seriously. Just the dog ate that one, and even if the Yukino family sold it, they probably couldn't afford to buy it again.

Yukino looked at the kitten with a strange sense of envy.

Some people are not even as good as a cat.

Xiao Binchotan sat on the sofa, holding the cat in his arms, completely enamored with it.

"Hehe~ Little millet grains, white and white, with two ears standing up."

Yukino could feel the same way that the little guy was so happy.

She also wanted to keep a cat at home, but unfortunately she didn't have her doting brother.

The little one may not have had a good life before, but after meeting Xia Jun, she was pampered like a little princess. The little one is also very sensible and deserves to be pampered by everyone.

"Charcoal, play a little longer, it's time to take a bath."

"Okay~".

Chapter 122 Kidnapping the Little Fox

"Roasted sweet potatoes, smelling delicious! Come on, tuck your feet in a bit..."

On the Shinkansen, handcarts shuttle back and forth, their enticing aromas tempting passengers to make purchases.

When you reach the last carriage,

There aren't many roasted sweet potatoes left.

"Natsume-san, what are you doing here?" Natsume's eyes widened as he looked at the mysterious 'grandfather' with surprise. This trip was an outdoor educational activity for their school in Yanyu Onsen Township.

"Making money, it's not shameful." Xia Tian smiled, seemingly unrelated to the question. As for setting up a stall on the bus, there were plenty of ways to do that.

"..." Natsume didn't believe it at all. What kind of good person would bring an assistant when setting up a stall to make money?

"Natsume, do you know the boss?" Sasada, the female class monitor, asked in confusion, then turned around and asked Natsume for two sweet potatoes.

"Uh...a relative."

Sasada nodded. It has to be said that this boss does look a bit like Natsume.

After selling sweet potatoes, Summer came straight to Taki's table and sat down. Besides Hotaru, who was 'resting' at home, Aqua and Haru-Ame, who were setting up a stall today, also got on the bus.

"Brother, shall we go to Yanyu to pick some Long Grass? I heard from other monsters that Long Grass grows abundantly here," Xiao Qingyu said expectantly, wanting to pick some to earn money for her brother.

Taki exclaimed in surprise, "Oborozusa? I've seen it in the books my grandfather left behind. It's said to be a medicine for healing yokai?"

Xia Tian nodded and looked at Xiao Qingyu: "If you want to pick some, you can look for them. If you don't need them yourself, you can trade them with the intermediate-level monsters for delicious food. They usually eat a lot of high-end mountain delicacies."

The group chatted and laughed, and the stunning beauty of Taki and Aqua attracted frequent glances from the students on the bus.

Looking at the summer scenery and then at the multi-track railway, Beiping suddenly lost interest in the roasted sweet potato in his hand. "Damn it, this boss is a real winner in life. I've decided that after graduation, I'll also go roast sweet potatoes and then hire a young and beautiful girl to work for me."

Nishimura: "Exactly! I'd be willing to go bankrupt even if it meant working with such a cute girl every day."

Beiping: "We have such a lovely girl in our school? Why did I only find out today? I really shouldn't have."

Natsume listened helplessly to his two classmates' envious remarks, feeling embarrassed to shatter their fantasies. How could an ordinary person find a cute girl as an assistant when roasting sweet potatoes?

"By the way, Natsume, you know the boss, so do you know those two female classmates?"

Natsume smiled and said, "You mean Taki and Aqua? They've eaten together, so you could say they know each other."

Beiping was furious: "What?! We even ate together! You deserve to die!"

Beiping, equally dejected, hung his head: "They acted so quickly, it seems we've lost..."

Natsume smiled awkwardly. That was Natsume-san's friend, so she should be considered his elder.

Hachihara is quite a large area. The Shinkansen line has opened one station to Kariwa Onsen-kyo, but this area is still within Hachihara's boundaries. Daki had to go to class, so after getting off the train, Natsume and Aqua parted ways.

...

(It's a beautiful, shiny, white hat.)

(It's still here, doesn't anyone want it?)

In the dense forest, a little girl with fox ears had been secretly observing the hat on the grass for two days.

(Hehe, what a nice hat! Were you abandoned by humans? If humans don't want you, then come to my house.)

Girls are naturally drawn to pretty things, and this applies to both humans and demons. Once she was sure no one was coming back to pick up the hat, the little girl happily ran over and picked it up.

She held it up with a joyful expression, letting the sunlight shine through the hat onto her face, making her feel warm and cozy. The fox tail on the little girl's back swayed happily.

(It's so pretty and white, Mom will definitely like it too.)

The little girl's happiness lasted less than three seconds. Thinking of her mother, her nose suddenly stung, and her eyes reddened. Her mother lay beneath a pile of stones, gone forever. From now on, she would live alone in the forest.

"Mom, I miss you so much."

Rubbing her eyes, the little fox tried to stop the tears from flowing. She quickly shook her head, trying to shake off the sadness. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Mom said I have to be brave like a boy. I can't cry. I have to be strong when I live alone. Come on, Ah Li can do it."

After a good pep talk, the little fox cheered up again. Nodding, she picked up the white hat, put it on her head like a human, and skipped home.

"Oh dear, it's you again, you incompetent little piece of trash."

Two large, one-horned, one-eyed monsters suddenly appeared on the road.

"This forest isn't a place for a coward like you to wander around in," the one-eyed minotaur said, opening his arms to block the little fox's path.
