Welcome to the Real World, Shiraishi

Another story in the same series as the works in my profile. It's a long one, so you're welcome to dive in.

[Time Travel x Breaking the Fourth Wall x 70% Sweetness]

Qiu Youyan, a Chinese student who has returned from studying in Japan, is eager to get ahead but runs into a freezing job market.

As luck would have it, a county in Hokkaido is recruiting civil servants, with no nationality restrictions.

Qiu Youyan has a sudden idea: If you're taking the civil service exam, it doesn't matter where you pass, right? Besides, at my level, passing means serving my country, and failing also means serving my country.

So she successfully lands a job at a remote post office in a town in Hokkaido.

On her first day, all her coworkers are kind, middle-aged or elderly people.

Except for... her stunningly handsome supervisor, whose hand is wrapped in a bandage.

That air, that face, that name... Kuranosuke Shiraishi?!

Oh my god! Did the 2D world just break through?! Is this really a crossover?!

Before she can finish gasping, her beautiful supervisor covers her mouth and drags her into a storeroom.

A deep voice warns her: "Shh! Don't tell anyone! The System brought me here too!"

They have to complete bizarre missions to get home.

Just when Qiu Youyan thinks things can't get any more ridiculous,

she sees Seiichi Yukimura at a border outpost in the freezing snow, wrapped in a military overcoat and wearing a Lei Feng hat, yet still breathtakingly beautiful.

Qiu Youyan: "...This can't really be some parody merch, can it?!"

An overseas civil service exam premise. The logic serves the plot and romance, so don't overthink it.

Theme: Even in a different world, keep striving to live, and find love and growth along the way.
