Anime Crossover: About How I Spoiled an Angel

He didn't secretly take his girlfriend on a date, did he?

Damn it.

"Brother, don't interrupt!" Komachi Hikigaya said seriously, then began to gather her emotions again, her voice tinged with a hint of tears.

"If Sister Caijia likes you so much, and she knew that I treat you like this in private, she would definitely think that we don't get along. Then she would always take your side, which would cause a family war of the century!"

Then the idiot brother will definitely be caught in a dilemma, ultimately leading to a bad ending with a hatchet!

"Wait, what have you been up to lately, you high school senior? How come I got attacked with a machete?"

Hachiman Hikigaya stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.

"So that's why you're acting crazy here?"

"What do you mean by 'this kind of thing'? This concerns my brother's lifelong happiness!"

Komachi Hikigaya looked serious. "Never underestimate family relationships like mother-in-law and daughter-in-law or sister-in-law. You're still a long way from that, brother!"

"You're exaggerating. First of all, I was wearing noise-canceling headphones, so Caijia didn't actually hear it. Even if she did, it's highly unlikely that the thing you described will happen. Don't worry."

Hachiman Hikigaya breathed a sigh of relief; he thought something serious had happened, but it turned out to be nothing.

"Really?" Komachi asked doubtfully.

“Really,” Hachiman affirmed.

"That's good." Komachi Hikigaya breathed a sigh of relief. "Next time you call Ayaka, remember to tell me in advance. I don't want to leave a bad impression of my future sister-in-law."

Seeing this, Hachiman Hikigaya subconsciously reached out and patted his sister's head, smiling gently.

"Thank you for thinking of your brother so much. But you don't need to hide yourself from Caijia, it must be tiring and exhausting, right?"

"True family members are those who learn to accept and tolerate each other's other sides, even the opposite side, instead of trying to put on a mask of pretense as if they were strangers."

"So you just need to be your most authentic self and not put too much pressure on yourself."

"Wow, bro, you're so philosophical tonight!" Komachi Hikigaya exclaimed in affirmation.

"Oh, no... I just don't know how many points Komachi would give this sentence?" Hachiman Hikigaya smiled sheepishly, but his expression was still quite smug.

Being admired by your sister is something to be very proud of!

"0 points." Komachi Hikigaya smiled, but her words were colder than the drizzling rain outside.

"What?!" Hachiman Hikigaya even doubted that he had heard correctly.

Shouldn't it be a perfect score?

"It was supposed to be a 99.99 out of 100, but why did you touch my head, bro? Did you wash your hands? I just washed my hair!"

"Points deducted! The score is now negative!"

"And don't you know that touching a girl's head can prevent her from growing up?"

Hikigaya Komachi slapped the other person's hand away with a displeased look, and then rubbed her hair, which had just been touched, with a rather disgusted expression.

"You're already a senior in high school, your growth plates have long since closed, how could you possibly grow taller..."

After reflecting on his basic biology knowledge, Hachiman Hikigaya felt obligated to explain it to this high school senior who was about to take the college entrance exam.

Maybe this will be on the college entrance exam, then Komachi will have made a profit, right?

Just as he cleared his throat, preparing to say a few more words, Komachi suddenly flew into a rage.

"You idiot, give me some 'shine'!!!"

……

"Speaking of which, I haven't said goodbye to Hachiman and the others yet."

The rain curtain hangs heavy with loneliness.

Holding a black umbrella, Su Qing looked so out of place on the street, like a lost person who had wandered into a foreign city.

—People in Tokyo hold umbrellas, just like in anime and movies, with transparent little umbrellas, raindrops slanting down, and the night as deep as the rain.

Su Qing slowly raised her head to look up at the night sky, and then sighed softly.

Come to think of it, he still doesn't know where Yukino lives.

but……

never mind.

……

The night is dark.

Yukino gazed at the pattering rain outside the window, a sense of melancholy creeping into her heart.

Why is this?

"Yukino, will you sleep with me tonight? I'm afraid of the dark~"

Yukino first felt a strong shaking force from her arm, and then she heard the delicate female voice.

"How old are you? It's hard to believe you're still trying to fool me with this kind of excuse."

Yukino remained unmoved, sitting as if she were an old monk who had been practicing meditation for many years.

"Huh~ So all I need to do is come up with a reason that's convincing enough for you to believe, right?"

Yang Nai sat upright on the bed, winked playfully, and said with a grin.

"Turn right after you go out," Yukino said.

"Turn right? If I remember correctly, that's a room, and the door is locked." Yang Nai recalled the layout of her sister's house and said thoughtfully.

“Yes.” Yukino nodded slightly, looking at Hinano, tilting her head and smiling. “That’s where I store things I don’t need.”

"Since you're determined to spend the night here no matter what, perhaps you could try staying here."

After all, you're afraid of the dark, and there are so many things that can keep you company.

"Ugh, I don't want to~" Haruno threw herself onto Yukino's bed, ready to throw a tantrum.

"I finally finished work to come see you, of course I want to sleep with my dear sister~"

Haruno grabbed a pillow, propped it up with her chin, and looked at Yukino with a smile.

"Whatever you want..." Yukino was just saying it casually, suggesting that the other person stay in the storage room.

At most, she would only let the other person sleep on the sofa.

There's nothing we can do; she's Yang Nai, after all.

“Speaking of which…” Yukino parted her lips slightly, her eyes revealing a hint of hesitation, her voice fading until it disappeared.

Yang Nai clearly heard it.

She sprang up like a spring in an instant.

The rain intensified, but the girl's voice was easily drowned out.

"What? A late-night sisterly chat?! That's exactly what I've been waiting for!"

"A conversation? We're already having a conversation..."

"It's not that kind of thing." Yang Nai gave her a "you don't understand" look and clicked her tongue. "It's a heart-to-heart talk, the kind that can bring you closer, you know?"

As she spoke, she suddenly brought her bright face closer, "Hey, so what's wrong? Don't be shy, tell your older sister everything."

"Whether you want to pursue a boy or steal a boy away, I will support you unconditionally."

Yukino was silent.

She reached out and pushed Yang Nai's face away with a look of disgust.

Where are these places?

Why would she pursue a particular boy?

I don't even dare to think about it...

Does that mean she doesn't even have a boy she likes?

Thanks to her, Yukino was able to muster the courage to speak up.

"I haven't had a chance to tell you yet, congratulations on becoming the head of the family."

"Hmm, what else?"

"And another thing..." Yukino subconsciously pursed her lips nervously, her expression full of trepidation, but she still stared straight at the other person.

"You must be very busy with family matters. I was wondering if there's anything I can do to help."

"Don't worry about the coursework, I've basically mastered all the courses for the next year..."

"Really? That's what you wanted to tell me?"

Yang Nai sat up straight without anyone noticing. She turned her face to the side, her tone gentler than ever before.

"It's alright, this is still within your sister's tolerance. Besides, Mom has been helping me all along."

She turned back, a sly smile on her face. "Otherwise, how do you think I finished work early?"

“Oh, I see…” Yukino thought for a moment, then said, “I want to know why you’re in such a hurry to take office.”

"Is it a right? Or... because of me?"

"Huh? Who told you that?" Yang Nai frowned, his displeasure evident on his face.

“I guessed it myself,” Yukino said.

"Well, I guess so." Yang Nai readily admitted, looking out the window at the unusually bad weather.

For Tokyo, it's rare for it to rain for so long in winter.

"Thanks……"

"Thank you for what?"

Yukino shook her head slightly, offering no further explanation. Her gaze fell on Hinano's face, and Hinano noticed and looked over as well.

The two sisters' gazes met amidst the wind and rain, transforming into moonlight.

Yukino said softly, "Sister, I've thought about what path I should take in the future."

“I want to stay in Tokyo and go into politics like my father.”

"Have you made up your mind?" Yang Nai didn't seem surprised by the result.

"Well, it's decided."

"Silly girl, you don't need to tell me this kind of thing." Yang Nai chuckled. "But Mother would probably be very happy to know."

"She has always hoped that you would find your own way, but the way she did it was a bit strange."

“I know, I don’t blame her.” Yukino nodded silently.

"Going into politics... that's not an easy path," Yang Nai said quietly, then smiled. "If there's anything I can do to help you, I will."

Upon hearing this, Yukino didn't know what to say.

Saying thank you feels too formal, but not saying it leaves me feeling like I have a lump in my throat, a heavy feeling inside.

It's as if he's been holding back that one sentence, about to burst out.

But when it comes to actually saying it, I don't know what to say.

"What's wrong, Yukino? Are you so moved that you can't speak?"

Yang Nai looked smug, his lips curving into a smile, but his fox-like eyes were extremely gentle.

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

Although Yukino said this, she had already turned her cheek to one side.

"Hehe, then no, I guess not." Yang Nai finished speaking and then began to sigh, "What a pity, I thought you were going to tell me something, like about the boy you like or something."

“I already said it didn’t happen…” Yukino sighed silently, her clear and bright eyes darting left and right.

Finally, the girl quietly moved a little closer to Hino.

The low voice sounded like a sincere prayer.

"Thank you for taking care of me all this time, sister—in every way I know of... or things I don't know of."
