Crossover Anime: Destroying Tokyo by One Person

Chapter 12 Returning to the Rooftop

The next day, around noon.

Xu Yuan yawned as he got out of bed, scratched his hair, and headed towards the bathroom.

I was forced to do missions as soon as I transmigrated here.

He fought a monster that Yagami Tsukihime had transformed into, and he was left half-crippled.

Strengthening the physical body almost caused him psychological trauma.

The isotope's bizarre cause of death is also unsettling.

However, because he was too tired, he fell asleep quickly after taking a shower last night and slept quite well.

After relieving myself, I turned on the tap, washed my hands, and then splashed a handful of cold water on my face.

Water droplets slid down her cheeks and dripped into the pool.

Looking at the face in the mirror that didn't belong to him, Xu Yuan felt very awkward.

I still need to become stronger as soon as possible.

"System, there should be other unprocessed spatial nodes in Tokyo, right?"

Xu Yuan felt that Light Yagami might not be the first.

【Have. 】

"Then why aren't there any missions?"

The system will not issue missions that guarantee certain death.

This means that he is not yet capable of handling it.

The system will not force him to handle things he is not capable of handling.

That's a pretty humane way to put it.

"But once a mission is issued, failure to complete it will result in death, right?"

Yes, if you die, it means you're only at that level.

Xu Yuan remained calm, showing no surprise.

The system will help him to the best of its ability, but that doesn't mean the system is easy to talk to.

At that moment, a spirit floated in.

"Lord Xu Yuan, you're awake?" asked Shinichi Kamiya. "I heard noises coming from the bathroom."

"Um."

"I just got a phone call."

"..."

"The landline number displayed was the school's phone number."

"Why does the school want to talk to you?"

"It's Friday today..."

"Oh. You—uh, no, it's me now—I skipped class."

"So, do you go to school?"

"I'm not going."

I brushed my teeth, washed my face, and also washed my hair.

When I came out of the restroom, it was already 11:30.

Just as Xu Yuan was about to leave, the landline in the living room rang again.

It was a call from a school teacher.

Shin Kamiya definitely can't answer the phone right now.

Xu Yuan then answered the call.

If I don't answer, they might just come to my house.

"Hello, this is Ms. Orito from the school. Are you Kamiya-kun?"

A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It's me," Xu Yuan said.

"Why didn't you come to school today?"

"I'm not feeling well, so I'm resting at home."

"I see..." Orito Reiko said softly on the other end of the phone, then hesitated before asking, "Is it because of Hayata-san and Katai-san?"

Hayata-san? Katai-san?

Who is it?

Xu Yuan said, "No."

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Shin Kamiya explained from the side, "Hayata-san and Katai-san are the two from yesterday. They often bully me and never pay back the money they borrow."

Xu Yuan suddenly understood upon hearing this.

So, he casually mentioned feeling unwell, and the teacher mistakenly thought he had been assaulted?!

Although Xu Yuan denied it, Reiko Orito on the other end of the phone clearly didn't believe him, but she didn't want to point it out.

After all, teenage boys care about their image.

After a long silence, she said softly, "Then, Paper Valley, please get some rest. I'll take care of your leave request."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, teacher."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Yuan looked at Shin Kamiya: "Are there many cases of school bullying in Japan?"

"There are so many!" Shin Kamiya nodded angrily. "Basically, every class has 'bullies' and 'victims,' the only difference being the severity of the bullying."

"Don't the school and teachers care?"

"How do you manage it?" Shin Kamiya scoffed. "In this country, the majority is naturally considered to be just."

Those who disagree will be ostracized.

"The essence of bullying is the atmosphere."

"Especially in this country where everyone moves from left to right and from right to left, the monster called Atmosphere has extremely powerful strength."

"In the face of it, even the law may be powerless."

Xu Yuan stared in surprise at his long-winded speech.

Shin Kamiya realized what was happening and scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly: "Ah, that's a line from 'Legal High SP'."

After saying that, he quickly added, "But I have a deep understanding of this!"

"In school, if you are different from others, you are likely to be ostracized and bullied!"

"For example, those who are ugly, particularly thin, physically disabled, stutter, transfer from remote areas, or girls taller than 170 centimeters, etc."

"Oh," Xu Yuan asked, "and who are you?"

Shin Kamiya is handsome, about 175 cm tall, with all four limbs intact, speaks normally, and is a native of Tokyo.

"I come from a single-parent family."

Shin Kamiya replied, then pursed his lips, his expression somber: "But now my mother has also passed away."

……

After leaving the house, Xu Yuan rubbed his empty stomach and went to a ramen shop to eat.

The store is small, with bar-style seating.

The customers were all men.

Before his time travel, Xu Yuan had heard that Japanese women felt uneasy going into ramen shops alone.

Now it seems that this is indeed the case.

There wasn't a single woman in the shop.

He glanced at the menu and noticed that there was also Chinese ramen, and it was even their signature dish.

Although the boss seemed to be Japanese...

Fine, I'll order one and try it.

"A serving of Chinese ramen."

When the noodles arrived, Xu Yuan took a bite.

Yeah, it's not Chinese at all, it's very Japanese.

After his physical body entered the extraordinary realm, his appetite increased significantly, and he quickly finished the Chinese ramen, which was not Chinese at all.

Xu Yuan ordered another one with a different flavor.

They finished eating quickly and then ordered a third serving.

As he ate more and more, the Japanese around him stared at him with surprise in their eyes.

The ramen shop owner was extremely excited, as if he had seen some rare animal.

When Xu Yuan finally finished eating and put down his bowl.

He loudly announced that he was the customer who had eaten the most since the store opened, and that he would get his meal for free.

He looked so excited; if he had a ceremonial cannon, he probably would have fired it on the spot.

This made Xu Yuan quite embarrassed.

I've decided not to come to this store again.

I walked out of the ramen shop, put on a mask and a baseball cap.

Xu Yuan hailed a taxi and headed towards the abandoned building from the previous night.

That was the landing point where he traveled from.

He hastily jotted down the approximate address as he left.

After getting off the bus, it took Xu Yuan some time to find the place.

He didn't see it clearly last night, but during the day he discovered that the building was even more dilapidated than he had imagined.

Many windows were broken, and nobody cared.

It was supposedly a dilapidated building slated for demolition, but after several years of demolition work, it's still stuck at the stage of creating new folders.

"Lord Xu Yuan, what brings you here?"

Shinpachi Kami floated beside him and asked curiously.

Xu Yuan ignored him.

This guy is a bit annoying; once you engage with him, he starts babbling on and on.

He found the stairs and climbed them.

Footsteps echoed softly in the empty building.

Push open that rusty iron door.

The rooftop from last night appeared before his eyes again.

This time it was daytime, and the weather was sunny.

The sunlight dispelled the darkness.

Without the washing of rain and the cover of darkness, everything was clearly visible.

The wind that was blowing was no longer violent.

The distant whistle of trams still drifted over, yet it was filled with a real sense of life.

Xu Yuan walked slowly on the rooftop.

His gaze carefully swept over every inch of the ground.

The first-tier physical body granted him more sensitive five senses.

The first-tier soul granted him a more acute sense of perception.

He could clearly see every tiny crack in the cement floor and distinguish the subtle smells carried by the wind from different directions.

But he still didn't find anything unusual.

He walked to the spot where his body had fallen, squatted down, and ran his fingers along the rough cement floor.

There was no sign of any struggle.

There were no suspicious items either.

The isotope seems to have come here, then lay down, and then died silently.
