Crossover Anime: I'm at Shuchiin Academy, and my surname is Uchiha.

Chapter 65 Your Youth Has Passed

"That's it, a little further in, push it in! On the rock!"

"It's no use... Uchiha-senpai, I've run out of bullets!"

Inside the room, Uchiha Rin reluctantly released the keyboard and slumped into a chair to rest.

Ishigami Yu was a little embarrassed. "I failed to get through this level again! It's my fault. I wish I had Uchiha-senpai's insight."

On the other side, Shirogane Miyuki burst into laughter, "I told you this game was hard, I've never even finished it once."

Uchiha Ryo sat up. "Silver, what are you laughing at? It was your elimination that led to the entire loss. Shall we play one last round, or go back first?"

Miyuki Shirogane shook his head. "I should go home. If I don't go back soon, Kei will probably worry again."

Yuya Ishigami released the keyboard. "Let's play again next time. Do you need me to take you guys?"

Uchiha Ryo: "No need, no need. Actually, we're only able to play this game thanks to Ishigami's equipment. Let's come again next time."

Friendships between boys are actually very simple. As long as you have a meal together and play a game, you'll quickly become friends.

—Three hours ago—

After school, Uchiha Ryo intercepted Shirogane Miyuki, who was on his way home.

"Come on! What kind of good student goes straight home after school? Let me show you what real student life is like."

Shirogane Miyuki: "???"

"Wait, where are you taking me?"

Uchiha Ryo turned his head. "Anyway, the monthly exam just ended, so I'll take you out to relax."

At this moment, Shirogane Miyuki's mind raced. What would the Uchiha take him to do? He seemed to have just asked him not long ago why he was so popular... Could it be!

Miyuki Shirogane: "This... isn't this inappropriate? I'm not ready yet, and I'm wearing the Shuchiin uniform?"

Uchiha Ryo looked at Shirogane Miyuki with a puzzled expression, "Then what else do you want to wear? Just say it."

They took Shirogane Miyuki, who had just finished school, to the junior high school section, and then found Ishigami Yu, who was already waiting there.

Uchiha Ryo: "Ishigami, let me introduce you to a friend, my classmate Shirogane Miyuki. He's not very good at games, but he can still get some kills."

Yu Ishigami nodded, then bowed slightly to Miyuki Shirogane, "Hello, Shirogane-senpai, I am Yu Ishigami from the junior high school."

Shirogane Miyuki smiled, greeted the other party, and then went to Uchiha Ryo's side to whisper something.

"Bringing along elementary school juniors... isn't that a bit inappropriate..."

Uchiha Ryo waved his hand, "What's wrong with it? He was the one who organized this whole thing. You just come with me and it'll all be fine."

The reason for this event was that Uchiha Ryo and Ishigami Yu hadn't had enough of the games they played on the playground today, so Ishigami Yu enthusiastically invited his senior to come to his house, and Uchiha Ryo, of course, had no reason to refuse.

Then I thought of bringing Shirogane Miyuki along, so that I could not only raise the favorability of both of them at the same time, but also let them get to know each other in advance.

Since it was Uchiha Ryo who was leading the way, Shirogane Miyuki felt it would be impolite to refuse, so he immediately nodded and asked.

Miyuki Shirogane: "So where are we going?"

Yu Ishigami stepped forward and said, "I'd like to invite you two seniors to my house. Since my parents are mostly at the company, I'm living alone for the time being. My house is quite big, so you can rest there when you're tired."

Uchiha Ryo nodded. "Then it's settled. Let's go to the supermarket to buy some food. Don't worry, I'll pay for the snacks this time. You can pick whatever you want!"

Shirogane Miyuki looked at Uchiha Ryo with some surprise.

"So... when you said you'd take me to relax, you meant going to Ishigami's house to play video games?" He thought... he thought it was a social event.

Uchiha Ryo: "Otherwise what? Ishigami's house has four top-of-the-line computers, arranged in pairs facing each other, in a soundproof, air-conditioned room!"

Shirogane Miyuki smiled. "Then we absolutely have to go!"

—Let's go back to the present—

The two left the Ishigami family home, and on their way to the Shirogane family home, Shirogane Miyuki sighed and said something.

"My older brother is still out playing games so late. Xiao Gui and Dad should be eating properly at home, right?"

Uchiha Ryo had something to say, but she didn't know whether she should or not: Shirogane Kei now helps the Shinomiya branch family with their accounts every day, and as long as she doesn't make a mistake, her salary is more than Shirogane Miyuki's hard-working part-time job every day.

There's no way around it; that's the power of the Shinomiya family. Even though the servants of the Shinomiya family have low status and are easily scolded and dismissed, in the eyes of ordinary people, it's definitely a coveted job.

Even ordinary housekeepers earn several times more than ordinary housekeepers outside the home.

It seems that Kei didn't tell Shirogane Miyuki about this. Is she trying to give her brother a surprise?

Uchiha Ryo: "Don't worry too much. Actually, Kei has grown up quite a bit (she's even older than Kaguya Shinomiya), so you can be more lenient with her."

Shirogane Miyuki nodded, but whether this sister-complex was truly agreeing or just going through the motions was anyone's guess.

.....

The next day, unlike the previous days, Uchiha Ryo arrived at the Classic Literature Club very early.

After all, their school magazine is about to be published. This time, the core theme of their Classical Literature Club is "Youth in the Past and Future," a literary magazine written based on the contrast between the gray youth of Chitanda's era and the colorful youth of today's students.

Yukino Yukinoshita worked quietly, and when she saw Ryo Uchiha enter, she simply nodded slightly as a greeting.

Chitanda was also there, but she was reading a book, and it seemed to be a literary work. Unfortunately, Uchiha Ryo wasn't interested in that kind of book.

Rather than reading highbrow literary classics, Uchiha Ryo preferred to enter places that were supposed to be off-limits to him late at night, such as when Kashiwagi Eri's new work was leaked.

Although Hayasaka Ai acts like a lively and energetic gal at school, when she's making tea, Uchiha Ryo can always see the shadow of a maid in her.

He really wanted a maid to live in his house... Maybe he should talk to Kaguya Shinomiya this weekend and ask her to give him a maid.

After taking a sip of the tea brewed by Hayasaka Ai, Uchiha Ryo felt completely relaxed. Anyway, this year's school magazine had nothing to do with him; he was just a bystander.

Amakusa Shino: "Everyone's here. Hiratsuka-sensei, our club's advisor, is going to take a look at what we're going to publish in the school magazine."

The door was pushed open, and Minister Amakusa walked in with Shizuka Hiratsuka.

Hiratsuka Shizuka: "Uchiha, I haven't settled the score with you for sneaking out of the office last time and skipping class all morning!"

Uchiha Ryo: "...Oh."

Hiratsuka Shizuka was furious when she saw Uchiha Ryo's appearance, but she still started reading the article about gray youth... and then almost cried out of empathy.

Uchiha Ryo: "Hiratsuka-sensei, don't be sad. After all, your gray youth is over. Yes, your youth has been over for a long time."
