Anime Crossover: My Youth Begins with Charlotte

"Stop messing around, stop messing around. I've been writing a school horror manga lately, and my head is full of manga plots. I finally have some inspiration now." Ishigami Yu thought to himself as he paced around in place.

Ah~ I've got it! Kaguya is a murderous female demon, Chika is her accomplice, and Natsuhiko is a righteous hero.

Shirogane Miyuki, equally bored, chimed in.

Hey, hey, hey, what about me? I should be the main character! I'm the one with the automatic protagonist halo!

"Okay, okay, you can work with Xia Yan to vanquish demons and open up a new world," Shi Shangyou said excitedly.

You guys really have wild imaginations! I've never seen you come up with so many ideas during plays or sports meets. Xia Yan said with a cold laugh.

Ishigami Yu chuckled, scratching his head as he replied, "Speaking of which, you don't seem to be in the mood today. This isn't like you. Is there another reason?"

"That's right, some people are so busy that they don't even have a moment to cheer me on. They don't give me any face, so of course they're not in good shape," Xia Yan suddenly said, raising his voice.

Cough cough cough, cough cough. Kaguya, who was drinking coffee on the side, seemed to understand what Natsuhiko meant and choked on her coffee.

Xia Yan walked over and patted her back, then gently bent down and whispered in her ear, "Drink slowly. Next time at the finals, don't let me lose track of you again, okay?"

Kaguya was about to explain that she had been delayed because she was busy with student council matters and had been held back to complete them.

But before she could speak, Xia Yan interrupted her, "Shh! I don't need your explanations. I just want you to be there for me when I need you, that's all."

... ....... ...

Kaguya's face instantly turned bright red, but she tried to hide it by touching her cheeks with both hands to cool them down. She kept nodding to conceal her embarrassment.

The two people standing nearby were overwhelmed by the sudden sweetness and didn't know what to say for a moment. To cover up their embarrassment, they could only lower their heads and pretend to be busy with their own things.

After Kaguya left, Shirogane Miyuki was puzzled as to why the two of them, who had been ignoring each other just moments before, were suddenly showing affection.

Unable to contain his curiosity any longer, Shirogane Miyuki asked Natsuhiko, "When did you manage to win her over?"

The atmosphere suddenly became tense. The two looked at each other in silence, leaving Ishigami Yu standing there dumbfounded.

Chapter Sixty-Five: Spring Outing

Chapter Sixty-Five: Spring Outing

When Kaguya returned from outside, she sensed the oppressive atmosphere of the chaotic scene and cautiously asked what was wrong. Ishigami Yu stood there dumbfounded, saying nothing. At that moment, Chika, who was working as the secretary, came to the student council to report after school.

"Kaguya, you're here? I've come to report for duty. Where are they? Why are you the only one left?" Chika entered the room, casually placed her bag on the seat, and looked at Kaguya, saying, "San-shi-san."

"Oh, Chika, they just went out. I just got here not long ago," Kaguya said as she looked at Chika who had come in.

“Well, I thought they hadn’t arrived yet. It’s so hot today. I was scorched on the way here, but the weather is nice, perfect for a spring outing,” Chika said, looking at Kaguya sitting there.

When Chika left home today, she didn't expect it to be so hot, so she wore more layers. She wore gray sweatpants, a simple white short-sleeved shirt, and a black jacket over them.

This outfit is really hot right now; you can see that Qianhua still has some sweat on her forehead and is sitting there fanning herself.

"Oh right, Kaguya, didn't the school organize a spring outing? I remember it was handed over to the student council. Has the location for the spring outing been chosen yet? I want to prepare in advance." Chika asked Kaguya while fanning herself with her fan.

"The school said it was an organized spring outing, but the task was just handed over to the student council, and we haven't decided yet. You were the only one missing, but when you came, they were gone again," Kaguya said helplessly to Chika.

"Oh, I see. When will they be back? Xia Yan told me they're coming to the student council meeting today to discuss the location for the spring outing," Chika asked Kaguya, looking at her with a puzzled expression.

"Hmm, they should be back soon. Let's wait a little longer. They should be back soon. We'll discuss it together when they get back," Kaguya said.

As time passed, the two waited there for Natsuhiko and Shirogane Miyuki to return, until Kaguya finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"Why aren't they back yet? Wait, let me call Xia Yan."

Kaguya then took out her phone from her bag and dialed Natsuhiko's number.

"Beep... Hey, Xia Yan, where did you guys go? Why aren't you back yet? Chika and I have been waiting for ages," Kaguya said anxiously into the phone.

"We're right at the entrance, just one more minute before we go in. Qianhua's here! We thought she hadn't arrived yet, so we lingered outside for a bit. Okay, let's go in right away."

Xia Yan's voice came from the phone, and after hearing what Xia Yan said, Kaguya hung up the phone.

"Alright, they're almost here, they're at the door." Just as Kaguya finished speaking, Natsuhiko and Shirogane Miyuki walked in together.

"I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting. I'm really sorry," Xia Yan said as he walked in.

"It's alright, have a seat. Let's talk about the school field trip. We can't start until everyone is here, so let's begin now that we're all here," Kaguya said first.

Then, Shirogane Miyuki and Natsuhiko found their seats 4.9 and sat down.

"The time and place for this spring outing organized by the school will still be chosen by our student union, but there are two things that must be guaranteed."

"First: Regarding the safety of the location, the place we choose must be safe. Second: We need to choose a good day; we can't go out on a rainy day, can we?" Shirogane Miyuki spoke first, sitting in his seat.

选择

“Yes, yes, that’s for sure. We can’t play on rainy days, and if the heavens are unhappy and it snows, it’ll be even worse,” Chika continued, picking up where Shirogane left off. After Chika finished speaking, the room fell silent. Everyone looked at each other, then at Chika. Knowing she had misspoke, Chika quickly apologized. “Sorry, sorry, I was just joking. Let’s continue talking about the spring outing.” Everyone looked at Chika and said, “Be serious, we’re in a meeting. We don’t care what you say in private.” Xia Yan, seeing Chika’s exasperation, continued, “Let’s continue, let’s talk about the location.” Soon, everyone offered their opinions. "I think going for a spring outing would be better. A spring outing is the best time of year, and spring is the season of renewal. Imagine walking on a lush green lawn, setting up a tent and camping—how wonderful!" Shirogane Miyuki stood up and offered his opinion. "I think we should go to the beach. Playing in the water is cool, and there's a sandy beach. Most importantly, it's a huge benefit for guys—they can feast their eyes, hehe." Xia Yan then offered his suggestion. After Xia Yan made his suggestion, all the women in the room seemed to be looking at him with hatred, making Xia Yan shudder, feeling like he was being stared at. "Hmph, you pervert! What are you guys thinking about all day? Really!" Chika pouted at Xia Yan. "Hehe, isn't it cooler at the beach? And we can run on the sand, sunbathe, and stuff like that," Xia Yan replied awkwardly to Chika. "Sunbathing? I've already gotten so tanned these past few days, I don't want to sunbathe anymore. If you want to sunbathe, I'll let you go sunbathe outside for a while," Chika replied dismissively. "Forget it, let's skip that," Xia Yan said gruffly. "Hey Kaguya, what's your opinion? Where do you want to set up the location? Give us your thoughts," Shirogane Miyuki asked, looking at Kaguya who hadn't spoken. "Ah, I'm thinking of going up a mountain, like mountain climbing, to the top. That way, you can see so high and far, and you can open your arms and welcome the wind. It's been so hot these past few days, it'll be cooler up there," Kaguya said, looking at everyone. "Hmm~ That's a good idea, I've never been to a mountain before, I want to experience it," Xia Yan quickly chimed in after Kaguya finished speaking. "Why do you always have to chime in?" Shirogane Miyuki said, looking at Xia Yan. "So where should we go? Everyone's opinions are different," Chika said to everyone. Everyone fell silent after hearing this. Yes, everyone's opinions were different, and agreeing with anyone wasn't good. What should we do?

Xia Yan sat there thinking carefully for a while. Suddenly, Qianhua stood up and said, "I have an idea! Since everyone has different opinions, let's draw lots. Whoever's lot is drawn will get their solution. What do you all think?" Everyone's eyes lit up. "That's a good idea! No one is biased, and it's fair! Let's decide by drawing lots!" "Okay, I'll start making the lots now. Please wait a moment. Write your location on a piece of paper and give it to me. I'll attach it to the lot, and then we'll all draw together." Seeing that her suggestion had been agreed upon, Qianhua was happy and quickly started making the lots. Soon, everyone handed their written slips of paper to Qianhua. After making the lots, Qianhua placed them on the table. "Alright, everyone, pray you draw a good place," Qianhua said after setting down the lot-drawing bucket.

Chapter 67

Draw lots

Chapter 67

Draw lots

The voting was about to begin. They wrote down all the places they wanted to go on the blackboard, ready to draw lines and vote. Beach! 10 votes. Amusement park! 10 votes. Mountain! 10 votes…

After the vote, everyone was stunned. It was a tie. It seemed that this method was not working. Later, someone suggested drawing lots to decide the winner, leaving it to fate, which would be fair to everyone.

Without further ado, the group handed the slips of paper to Qianhua, who then attached them to the playing cards. Everyone then drew cards according to the rules; whichever card they drew would determine their travel destination for the year. Just as everyone was about to draw, someone said this method was unfair because some 377 cards were different and easily distinguishable. After some thought, they finally decided to use bamboo sticks to draw lots like in ancient times. "Everyone, our purpose in drawing lots is mainly to decide where we go on our trip. This doesn't harm your interests and is fair. Is that alright?" The group, who had been standing there dumbfounded, immediately responded, "That works too."

"How about we decide by rock-paper-scissors? I think that'll be faster," another voice rang out from the crowd. "No, no, rock-paper-scissors won't work! Some people will go first, some will go second, I don't think that's fair!"

Yeah, yeah, I also think it's unfair. It's cost-effective but troublesome. Unfair! (aeej)

How about we do this...?

No, no...

…………

Everyone had their own ideas and was making a lot of noise, so the scene was chaotic.

After arguing for a long time, Kaguya, who was sitting to the side, finally couldn't take it anymore.

He patted the table, stood up, and said.

Everyone, please be quiet. I know this trip is a rare opportunity, and everyone has places they want to go, but this constant copying won't get us anywhere.

At this moment, everyone gradually quieted down, put down what they were doing, and looked at Kaguya. They waited quietly for her to speak.

Kaguya paused, organizing her thoughts. She looked at the people speaking...

We could use the simplest method: (We'll have two backup groups write 10 slips of paper, selecting 3 slips from the 8939 group that mention places to visit, leaving the other 7 blank. If all 3 people draw blank slips, we continue drawing; if two people draw slips mentioning places to visit, the other person is eliminated.) Then we'll switch groups and continue drawing until the last person draws a slip. To be fair, we've decided one person will tear off the slips. We'll choose one person to write a slip, and then choose 3 people to draw them.

As a student council officer, Kaguya was used to meetings, so she organized the situation in a very orderly manner.

As they talked, everyone got busy. Ishigami Yu, who was sitting in the first row, was already hopelessly infatuated with Kaguya and kept calling her "Goddess, Goddess".

Little did he know that Chika was pouting beside him, throwing a little tantrum.

Thanks to Kaguya's organization and arrangements, and with everyone's cooperation, only two votes remain undrawn: mountain climbing and amusement park.

Kaguya went up to check the ballots, but her real intention was to go mountain climbing. So, while everyone's attention was drawn to Natsuhiko, she quietly went over and tampered with the ballots she had drawn.

Then he gave Xia Yan a victory sign. It seems the two of them had planned this all along. One of them was trying to attract everyone's attention, while the other, under the pretext of checking the ballots, went up to act as a reporter to gather information and make it easier to confirm what it was.

Chapter Sixty-Eight Ideas

Chapter 68

idea

Kaguya originally wanted to go to the mountain, so she conspired with Natsuhiko to tamper with the slips of paper used for drawing lots. Kaguya, who was gloating over this, didn't notice that someone in the audience had already seen this and was secretly making connections with other people.

Hey, remember to vote for me!

Vote for me, and I'll buy you a lollipop later.

Hey, hey, hey, didn't you want to go to the amusement park? Remember to vote for me! Chika looked around the audience, trying to build connections so she could get votes.

Kaguya, confident and prepared, cleared her throat and said, "Alright, now our representative, Natsuhiko, will go up and draw lots for everyone."

Kaguya, who thought she had succeeded, didn't expect there to be someone even more cunning. It seems the best friends are never going to back down when it comes to getting toys and snacks, and the whole scene was filled with tension.

Chika had already noticed the two notes.

This won't do; we can't always let Xia Yan do the pulling.

Yes, that's not fair.

Let's send Qianhua to grow a branch!

Okay...it's her.

Chika! Chika! Chika! Chika! Chika! The crowd below the stage chanted Chika's name in a jeering manner.

Helpless, Xia Yan could only slink off the stage. Kaguya had no idea this was her best friend Chika's little scheme. She kept giving her meaningful glances, trying to tell her which slip of paper had been used to manipulate the situation.

But Chika wouldn't be that silly. I've been wanting to go to the amusement park for a long time to ride the roller coaster and carousel that she's always wanted to ride... Just thinking about it makes me a little excited.

Once on stage, Chika didn't hesitate to choose the slip of paper that hadn't been tampered with. She held it in her hand, silently recited a few incantations, and unfolded it. Hey, sure enough, the slip of paper said "amusement park."

Chika was overjoyed. She eagerly waved the note that said "Amusement Park" and shouted excitedly.

Look! It's an amusement park, it's an amusement park! I'm as happy as a child.

But Kaguya felt somewhat helpless.

"Oh dear, how could this happen? My new camera can't even capture the scenery on the mountain anymore. I've never liked these kinds of thrill rides since I was little." Kaguya muttered to herself, tearing up small pieces of paper in her hands.

Xia Yan, who had been watching from the sidelines, understood Kaguya's thoughts. He patted Kaguya's head and then rushed onto the stage. Suddenly, he became serious and began to speak.

Ahem, everyone, please be quiet for a moment. The result of our vote is the amusement park. So, the destination for our trip will be the amusement park.

Chika, standing to the side, grinned and said, "That's right! That's right! I can go ask for lots of amusement park rides now!"

Xia Yan pursed his lips at Qian Hua and gently pressed Qian Hua's head down with his large hands.
