Anime Crossover: About How I Spoiled an Angel

Page 327

Upon hearing this, Su Qing smiled and sat down. "Really, you don't need to?"

"Really, I don't need to!" Mahiru pouted, her eyes darting around. "I was thinking of... going to bed early tonight..."

Su Qing's smile widened. "Okay, I'll wash up. Why don't you wait for me in bed first?"

"Huh...? I understand..."

Wait for me in bed?

Why does this sentence sound so strange?

The girl got up and walked towards her room, lost in thought, when she almost tripped and fell flat on her face.

Upon hearing the voice, Su Qing turned around and looked at the retreating figure with its head tucked in, and called out, "Focus on walking."

"You misheard me, I'm not some stupid person who can't even walk!"

Mahiru didn't dare turn her head; her red lips were pink, but what she said was surprisingly stubborn.

Seeing that the other person's figure disappeared into the darkness of her room, Su Qing smiled and said nothing more.

……

After washing up and returning to his room, I found Mahiru playing on his tablet, which I must have just brought over.

As for the password, I already knew it because I had promised to teach them basic comic book knowledge.

Noticing Su Qinglai, Mahou, like a good child, flipped the tablet over and held it near her chin, quickly saying...

"I didn't do anything bad, I was just bored and thought I'd look at your comics."

After all, watching on a tablet is more convenient than on a phone.

"Super Beast Force?"

"Hmm. Or have you started a new comic book?"

"No, I probably won't be drawing comics anymore." Su Qing sat side by side with Mahiru and took the tablet from her hands.

"Hey, why? The grades in this class aren't very good right now. Before the holiday, many people in the class were discussing it."

Mahiru looked puzzled.

I've never heard of anyone giving up because their grades are too good.

Moreover, she had heard that some struggling authors, earning only a few dollars a day in royalties, still managed to write 900,000 words.

"I said from the beginning that comics are just a side job at best."

I just had a story in my heart that I wanted to tell, and now that the story is over, my side hustle is over too.

I just finished drawing the ending, and besides my editor, you're the first reader.

Su Qing smiled and handed the ending to Mahiru. After the girl finished reading it, he asked her a question.

"So, what are your thoughts? Do you think it's a disappointing ending?"

"Evaluation?" Mahiru was taken aback, then twirled a strand of hair between her fingers as she pondered and spoke.

"To be honest, I don't really understand the combat elements in it; I'm drawn to the philosophical parts."

If I were to give an evaluation, it might not be entirely objective.

But I think this ending is how the story should have ended; it's a great ending.

The girl smiled brightly, her eyes radiating a brightness that could melt ice and snow.

Su Qing smiled and said, "Really? That's good..."

Although she was still a little nervous, it was her second time, and Mahiru seemed quite experienced.

Before going to sleep, Mahiru suddenly asked again, "Kiyoshi, is someone trying to harm you, and was that person sent by someone else today?"

"You watch too many TV dramas? It's so complicated." Su Qing shook her head and said, "It's probably because that person had some mental issues and was just unlucky."

"I thought so too." Mahiru lay on the bed, curled up, and faced Su Qing's face with a serious expression. "Next time, I will protect you."

"There won't be a next time, you idiot."

Su Qing gently flicked Mahiru's forehead, a rare occurrence for her, and then said, "Go to sleep."

"OK, good night."

"Good night."

At that time, it was 23:30.

……

……

At three o'clock in the morning, Su Qing suddenly opened her eyes.

There was no alarm clock, nor was I awakened by a nightmare.

He wasn't actually asleep.

Opening her eyes, Su Qing stared at Mahiru's sleeping face for a while in the dim light, and after confirming that she was sound asleep, she tiptoed out of the room.

at the same time.

A black minivan had stopped downstairs at their apartment building at some point.

As soon as Su Qing got out of the car, the door opened immediately, and a short-haired, capable woman stepped out.

"Mr. Su, is this? My young lady has been waiting for quite some time."

"Drive, I'm in a hurry."

"Understood, Miss instructed me to grant your request unconditionally."

The car door closed, the black sedan started, and disappeared into the darkness in the distance.

What no one noticed was that the curtains in the sixth-floor apartment moved slightly.

The girl lowered her eyes, her gaze seemingly following the car as it drove away.

"Qing, why... did you keep this from me..."

……

The black sedan sped relentlessly through the night at an astonishing speed, and soon arrived at its destination.

Su Qing got out of the car, squinted slightly, and looked around at the surroundings.

If I'm not mistaken, this is Tokyo Bay, right?

The short-haired woman respectfully pointed to a container ahead, "The young lady is just ahead, please."

Su Qing ignored him and went inside on her own.

The container wasn't very big, but it housed quite a few people, including several burly bodyguards in black suits.

Yang Nai sat in a chair, with two men in their fifties or sixties in front of him, both of whom were tightly bound by iron chains.

"Yang Nai, please let us go. We watched you grow up when you were little."

One of the men cried out.

Yang Nai was still pondering when Su Qing would arrive when he heard his plea. He frowned and instructed the person beside him:

“Gag them.”

"No! Waaaaaah..."

Are there only the two of them?

The eerie voice echoed in Yang Nai's ears, instantly sending chills down her spine.

"When did you arrive? Wait, why didn't anyone call me?"

Yang Nai subconsciously stood up. There were clearly two bodyguards guarding the door; they should have notified her if someone came in.

"The bodyguards you hired aren't good enough either."

Su Qing shifted her position slightly, allowing Yang Nai to see the two bodies lying haphazardly at the doorway.

Is this... being knocked unconscious by Su Qing?

Yang Nai's lips twitched. What the hell? Even if you were to deal with two stray dogs on the roadside, they would bark twice, right?

"I was in a bad mood, so I hit a little too hard," Su Qing said calmly, then looked at Yang Nai with a half-smile.

"I heard you'll be officially the head of the family next month? I don't think I've congratulated you yet. Congratulations!"

"I know this isn't a very appropriate thing to say, but... I'm sorry."

Yang understood the unspoken meaning in the boy's words and realized that the two bodyguards were either a warning or an outlet for his anger.

After saying that, she bowed deeply to Su Qing.

Everyone else present stared in disbelief. What was the identity of this handsome young man?

"No need for an apology. I don't want to linger too long and waste too much time."

All I want to know is, are there only these two people?

Su Qing stepped forward and coldly swept her gaze over the two bound men.

While anxiously waiting for Yui in the operating room, he realized that the killer must have come from within Yukinoshita's ranks, and the message from Haruno after he drew the manga confirmed this.

"Yes, and there's that hothead they sent, but the hospital says he'll most likely be in a vegetative state for life."

Yang said with a rather troubled expression.

This shouldn't have happened this way; how could it be escalated to the point of involving human lives so easily?

Of all people to choose, these two had to pick someone with a mental problem, and then they tried to assassinate someone in public. Isn't that just plain stupid?

It's true that a bad person's painstaking efforts are no match for a fool's quick thinking...

"I want to know why you sent someone to kill me?"

Su Qing half-squatted down and took the sock out of one of their mouths.

Nearby, a bodyguard scratched his head sheepishly, wondering where he could find something to put in someone's mouth. Luckily, he had a quick idea and took off two pairs of socks. Hehe.

Promotion and salary increase are just around the corner.

"I...we don't know either. We found out that Yang Nai came back as a different person after contacting you. We thought she had been provoked, but we just wanted to teach you a lesson. We never intended to kill you, sob sob..."

After stuffing the socks back in, Su Qing looked at the other person, as if to confirm.

The other person nodded frantically, his eyes filled with hope, "Quickly, help me take this sock off!"

But Su Qing ignored him, simply stood up, her dark eyes looking down at the two of them like a god.

He suddenly chuckled softly, as if it were a faint mockery, and his previously overwhelming anger suddenly lost its flavor.

These two idiots almost killed Yui...

"What do you plan to do?" Su Qing asked softly.

"Hmm... This is my first time doing something like this too. What do you think about sinking into Tokyo Bay?"

As soon as Yang finished speaking, the two men began to struggle violently.

"..."

Su Qing didn't speak, but turned to stare at the two of them and noticed that their faces were somewhat similar.

"Are they brothers?"

"Ah."

After receiving Yang Nai's affirmation, Su Qing smiled.

"What kind of third-rate novel plot is it to sink into Tokyo Bay?"

Since we're brothers, how about this?

Put them in the same cage, prepare two keys so they can both swallow them, and prepare two oxygen cylinders.

What's the maximum depth that humans can dive with equipment? 531 meters?

"Never mind, it doesn't matter anymore."

Su Qing squatted down again, looked at the two of them, her smile unchanged, and uttered a whisper that sounded like a demon.
