"Sakamoto normally looks like an idiot, but his leadership is really impressive."
"Yup, normally, he'll be an ordinary idiot."
It's the morning of the Cool Summer Festival today.
From the normal dirty classroom, our classroom has transformed into a Chinese teahouse.
"On first glance, this table seems really different from what it really is."
The tables placed around the classroom are actually just those cardboard boxes that we use in class. By arranging them neatly and putting a nice tablecloth over it, even lousy boxes can become a luxurious table.
"Ah, this is done by Kinoshita-san. I don't know where he got this beautiful tablecloth, but he was able to turn them into tables quickly and skillfully." Himeji-san stares at Hideyoshi with respect.
I see. This tablecloth is a prop that belongs to the drama club. No wonder the quality is so good.
"Hm, though it looks decent, it'll be different once we pull up the tablecloth."
Hideyoshi pulls up the tablecloth. What appears underneath are the dirty cardboard boxes that we're so used to seeing.
"Our shop rating will drop a lot if the customers see this."
Minami came up beside me and observes. She's right. If these kind of lousy cardboard boxes are to be seen, it'll cause our shop to have a bad reputation.
"It'll be no problem. Nobody will bother to look at them so closely. Even if they're to be discovered, I'll tell that person to hide that secret in the heart."
"That's right. Nobody would deliberately flip up the tablecloth just to stir trouble."
If there's anyone who'll do this, then that person has no other motive except to disrupt our business.
"The decorations inside the room are pretty as well, so there should be no problems, right?"
For the standards of a school festival, this is rather excessive. With this, there should be a lot of people coming over.
"...The tea's perfect as well."
"WAHH!"
Muttsuriini's voice suddenly came from behind. He still good at hiding his presence, but I do feel that there's no need for this in everyday life.
"Muttsuriini, is the kitchen side OK?"
"...Try it."
After saying it, Muttsuriini presents a wooden tub, tea and sesame balls are placed on the ceramic plate.
"Wa...looks yummy..."
"Tsuchiya, you don't mind if I eat this, right?"
"...(nods his head)"
"Then I won't hold back now."
Himeji-san, Minami-san and Hideyoshi all reached their arms out, popping the just fried and warm sesame ball into their mouths.
"Woah, it's good!"
"Ya! Crispy on the outside, yet chewy, the texture is great!"
"Sweet, yet not too sweet, it's good."
The snacks are rated highly. Girls really like sweets huh, all three of them.
"The tea is good as well, this is wonderful..."
"Yeah..."
Himeji-san and Minami look rather dreamy-eyed as they descend into dreamland. Is it really this good?
