Track Five - The Human Flavor of Love and Hate

📍 England, Baker Street

Gloomy man: ‘Hah, hah…. What the hell’s with that guy!? Did he notice me? Shit, I gotta run as far as I can–’

Kinari: <<Please wait for a moment. Is it possible for us to have a chat?>>

Gloomy man: ‘Woah–!?!?>>

Gloomy man: (A normal human is catching up to my bike on foot!?)

Kinari: <<I recommend that you stop. I will continue to pursue you until that bike runs out of fuel.>>

Gloomy man: <<E-Eekkk~~~~!!>>

—

Gloomy man: Uuuu….

Kinari: (He spectacularly crashed into a trash can, but since he slowed down the bike, he suffered only a few scratches.)

Netaro: Nari! Did you get him!?

Kinari: Yowa-sama.

Netaro: I upgraded my bomb-type invention and caught up! My heels are a bit sore though. 

Gloomy man: <<Who the hell are you guys…>>

Netaro: <<Culprit! The chase was pretty fun, but this is game over, right?>>

Gloomy man: <<Damnit…>>

Gloomy man: <<That guy… That guy’s the one at fault! I’ve done nothing wrong… Aghhh!>>

Kinari: …!

Kinari: (I have confirmed that the culprit is going to attack, he’s going to come in contact within 0.75 seconds–)

Netaro: It’s useless♪

Gloomy man: <<Woah!?!?!>>

Netaro: Sticky trap activated! Better watch your step~

Gloomy man: <<What the bloody hell’s this…! It’s all sticky and I can’t move!!>>

Kinari: We have successfully captured the culprit… How thorough of you, Yowa-sama.

Kinari: <<You’re not wearing a brown coat, but I presumed that you had thrown it away while making your getaway. You meet the description given by onlookers, so there is a 99.99% chance you are the culprit.>>

Netaro: <<The footprints I traced with my magnifier match perfectly with the soles of the shoes you're wearing right now.>>

Gloomy man: <<Ugh…!>>

Netaro: Weeeell then, it’s time for the part we’ve been waiting for. 

Netaro: <<Why did you do it? Was it out of hatred? Out of love!?>>

Gloomy man: <<Ha. …It was all just for revenge. You saw the writing on the wall, didn’t you?>>

Kinari: (Rache... so it is what that message said.)

Gloomy man: <<That man… He stole the woman I loved. I was the one who was supposed to marry her—>>

Gloomy man: <<So I wanted him to feel it! The pain I went through! The agony of having happiness being ripped away!>>

Netaro: Woah, incredible! This isn’t a drama or movie, this is the real deal! It’s real! 

Kinari: Yolmes-sama…We’re still in the middle of questioning him, no?

Netaro: Ahem. 

Netaro: <<One more question! Why didn't you kill him? Was it ‘cause you didn’t have the guts?>>

Gloomy man: <<No!! It was so he wouldn’t get off easy.>>

Netaro: ? Gloomy man: <<It would’ve been too easy if he died. It would’ve meant nothing.>>

Gloomy man: <<From here on, I was determined to make him slowly suffer little by little. I planned to use every trick I could think of over however long it took. As long as I’m alive, this will only continue…!>> 

Kinari: (Could anyone bear such an intense hatred towards someone who stole their lover?)

Netaro: …Hmm. Utterly unproductive and gloriously incomprehensible. 

Netaro: (A love that's too strong– And in his case, a hefty dose of self-love too. But once it turns on itself, it twists into this kind of self-destructive mess all set in motion by a half-baked plan... And yet, he's satisfied with it...)

Netaro: …Kuuuu~! I'm moved by watching it all unfold up close. Your little crime makes a really fineeeeee sample.

Gloomy man: <<Ugh… Uuuuu…>>

Kinari: ……

Kinari: <<Please lift up your face, you still have a life ahead of you.>>

Kinari: <<“You must act, man, or you are lost. Nothing but energy can save you. This is no time for despair.”... If you were paying homage to  your crime, you’ll surely get the reference in the Scarlet Study.>>

Gloomy man: !

Netaro: <<As thanks for tickling my curiosity a little, I'll give you the perfect invention. Just wait right there~>>

Gloomy man: <<...?>>

Netaro: <<Let's see… Somewhere around here in my bag... Aha! The ‘Solar Jellyfish Lamp!’ What you're missing is sunlight, and serotonin!>>

Gloomy people: <<Serotonin…?>>

Kinari: <<A neurotransmitter in the human brain. It’s said to stabilize the mood of the individual.>>

Netaro: <<Exaaactly! Ideally, you'd go out for a nice stroll under the sun on a clear day, but isn't it usually cloudy in England? That's where this lamp comes in!>>

Netaro: <<Standing before you now is a once-in-a-century genius who's managed to recreate 'sunlight' with a one-of-a-kind invention!>>

Netaro: <<If you ever feel yourself sinking into hatred, just let this lamp light your way. It even comes with the bonus of a good night's sleep.>>

Gloomy man: …..

Netaro: Now then, back to our studies we go, Nari!

Kinari: …Yes, Yowa-sama.

📍HAMA House, Living Room

Netaro: …And so! The culprit was safely apprehended, and the case was swiftly resolved. A happy ending for all♪

Kinari: The man handed himself over to the police, and we completed our trip as quickly as possible and returned home.

Chief: I see…

Chief: (So that's what happened… No wonder the report was so long. It sounds like something out of a movie.) 

Chief: I hope that person will be freed from their hatred now…

Netaro: Mmm, I kinda feel like letting go of all that hatred would be a bit of a waste though. 

Yodaka: Sounds like it was quite the ordeal, but you two really pulled it off. Just like modern-day Holmes and Watson. 

Ten: Though one of you guys was more like a villain than the other.

Netaro: A villain! Which means I'm not just Holmes, but also Moriarty! A wicked yet amazing detective!

Chief: Ahaha…

Netaro: If anything else happens, I'll count on you again, Narison♪

Kinari: Yes, Yolmes-sama.

Kinari: Throughout the trip, there were many unexpected incidents while I was with Yowa-sama, and I have learned how to deal with such things appropriately. I would like to accompany you in the future if you need me.

Netaro: Yay–♪

Chief: (The ever-curious Netaro-kun and the level-headed Kinari-kun…)

Chief: (Their ideas and actions seem to really bring out the best in each other.)

Chief: (They can be a bit of a handful, of course... But no matter what cases come their way, as long as they're together, I think we're in good hands!)

Footnote 1: While Kinari quotes this twice, this quote originates in the Five Orange Pips by Arthur Conan Doyle, who also wrote The Scarlet Study. Both short stories are part of the Sherlock Holmes Series.

Track 4 -The Human Flavor of Love and Hate

📍 England, Baker Street

Netaro: So this is Baker Street! That subway ride was smooth sailing, all thanks to you, Nari!

Kinari: This subway system, called ‘Tube,’ is Londoners’ means of transportation. There are a lot of information boards, so it’s an extremely convenient way of getting around. I shall mention this in our report.

Kinari: Plus the… ‘Crystal-Clear Trace-Detecting Magnifier’

Kinari: Even in a crowded subway station, it can accurately identify the single footprint we need to follow. What a wonderful invention.

Kinari: (My own level of examination can not get as far as this.)

Netaro: Right? Rightttt? The real chase starts now…

Netaro: Ah! Look, Nari! There’s an image of Sherlock Holmes over there! 

Kinari: It’s starting to sink in that we are at Baker Street.

Kinari: I have captured this in my photo system. So then, Yowa-sama, shall we continue our pursuit—

Netaro: Ohh! The Sherlock Holmes Museum is nearby too! Might as well take a little detour—

Kinari: Please wait.

Netaro: Ngah–

Kinari: Tracking down the culprit is our top priority. Any further delays will be detrimental not only to capturing the culprit, but also to our itinerary. 

Kinari: The time right now is 11:23 am. The Sherlock Holmes Museum is open until 6 pm. Once we’ve captured the culprit until then, we can check the museum out.

Netaro: Nari…

Netaro: Woahhh!! I really can't move at all if you grab my arm like that!

Netaro: Is that your max power!? With strength like that, you could totally take down a criminal in the blink of an eye!

Kinari: It’s possible to replicate the pro-wrestling moves Raito has taught me during a fight. However, depending on the combat ability of the other, there is a possibility that I might not be able to fight back.

Netaro: Nari. If it was me, I could totally upgrade you into the strongest battle android on the planet. 

Kinari: As an idol holding onto the nickname “Shortcake-chan”, any further combative enhancements are unnecessary.

Netaro: Is that so~ Well, too many weapons might just trigger an intergalactic war.

Netaro: Then in that case, here's a 'Baby-Easy Sticky Trap' for self-defense! Use it when you're in a pinch!

Kinari: Yes, thank you very mu–

Kinari: …The chance of rain in 5 minutes is about 98%.

Netaro: Disasteerrrrr! All the clues will definitely vanish if it starts raining! We need to catch the culprit fas–

Kinari: Yowa-sama, the magnifying glass has picked up something. Let’s head north.

Netaro: Let’s go, Nari! 

📍 England, Baker Street

Kinari: The rain has become quite heavy.

Kinari: There’s no signs of the culprit, but the footprints have disappeared.

Netaro: Nuuugh~ We'll never catch the culprit at this rate, and the case'll go cold. 

Netaro: I don’t want that! 

Kinari: Yowa-sama, how about we use your invention here?

Netaro: Hah! That’s it! Let’s–

Netaro: ...Wait, I left that thing back at the hotel 'cause it was too bulky~!

Netaro: Mmmm~~~ Guess I've got no choice but to blast those rainclouds away with one of my bomb-type inventions!!

Kinari: Stop. I won’t let our investigation become an international problem.

Netaro: Waaaah! Don't stop me, Nari! I want to catch the culprit no matter what~

Kinari: I understand how you feel, however—

Netaro: !!

Kinari: …?

Gloomy man: …

Kinari: (Super pale, long blond hair, and a hunched back.)

Kinari: ≪—Excuse me.≫

Kinari: ≪Were you near Big Ben a short while ago?≫

Gloomy man: …!!

Netaro: Ah, he got away!! 

—————————

Young British man in a good mood: ≪Phew, I finally got my hands on you, my lovely bike. I’m so glad I did well at that part-time job. Let’s go to tons of places together~≫

Gloomy man: ≪Damnit, give me that!≫

A young British man in a good mood: ≪Huh?! I just got it today! Get back here with my Victoria!!≫

Kinari: Our confirmed target has stolen a bike from a pedestrian. It seems he’s heading towards Baker Street. 

Netaro: Uwahhh~! There’s no way I can catch up with just these two legs!

Netaro: Is there any other way???

Netaro: Hmmm~!!

Netaro: (The culprit’s bike is getting further and further away!)

Netaro: (Am I really going to let my prized sample slip away after all that searching? Should I just reveal a bit of myself and–)

Kinari: Please do not worry, Yowa-sama. I am here.

Netaro: Nari! 

Kinari: “You must act, man, or you are lost. Nothing but energy can save you. This is no time for despair.”

Netaro: That’s Holmes’s.....

Kinari: It is. The great detective said it himself. Please don’t despair.

Kinari: When it comes to my leg strength, do not underestimate my capabilities. I will catch up to that bike.

Netaro: That’s so cool!!

Netaro: (I'm not alone– I've got a reliable assistant too!)

Netaro: I’m all in on your abilities! 

I’m counting on you. I’ll catch up to you for sure. 

Netaro: Go, my trusty assistant Narison! —We shall catch the culprit, no matter what!

Kinari: Understood. Yowa-sa… No, Great Detective Yolmes, I will chase after the culprit from here.

Track Three - The Human Flavor of Love and Hate

📍England, Near Big Ben

Kinari: Although he is unconscious, I have confirmed that his breathing is regular… There appear to be no external injuries, and he has been put into a deep sleep.

Kinari: I have called the police and an ambulance. With this, there should be no further problems.

Netaro: Good work! The crowd’s finally clearing out. 

Netaro: Now then, the next thing on the list is— For us to investigate this case! 

Kinari: Investigate?

Netaro: The culprit would be getting farther and farther away if we're just standing around waiting for the cops! They’d run off with the juicy fruit of truth I've been after!

Netaro: If it was a crime driven by hatred, they could've just finished it with one single blow. But no... They went out of their way to knock the victim out, then scrawled 'RACHE' on the wall in ink...

Netaro: So roundabout! And pointless! It reeks of human mystery! I wanna catch this culprit, crack ‘em open, and see what’s inside! 

Kinari: However, I recommend that we avoid getting involved with trouble during our stay here.

Netaro: Ehhhhhh~! Pretty please, Nari! I’ll even give you a piece– Half of my crunchy candy with you~!

Kinari: (...I believe it’s rather difficult to stop Yowa-sama in this state.)

Kinari: (In this situation, it would be best for me to partake in the investigation and quickly return to our original schedule.)

Kinari: ……

Kinari: Understood. I agree that we should conduct a quick investigation to figure out the culprit. I will help with the investigation.

Netaro: Yay~! That’s the Watson I know! 

Netaro: (Once we catch the culprit, I'll just quietly nab a few samples before handing them over to the police.)

Kinari: Then let us search the area.

—————————

Netaro: Hm… Nari! There’s something on the ground near that guy!

Netaro: A white pill. Is this some kind of medicine? 

Kinari: … The identification code has been hashed out. I’ll check what medicine this is.

Kinari: —After identifying the substance, it seems to be a very potent sleeping drug. It seems you can only get this prescribed by doctors.

Netaro: Did the culprit make him take this? 

Kinari: Very likely. If the culprit was able to pull off a crime like this, then there’s a possibility that they were prescribed this very potent sleeping drug.

Netaro: Can you trace it back to the culprit if we hack? 

Kinari: No, that would be too difficult. Even if our target is in London, a lot of people have been prescribed this drug.

Netaro: Well then, the next thing to do is~ …To ask around♪

Netaro: ≪You! Over there! Mind if we ask some questions?≫

Young man holding a phone: ≪Huh, me!?≫

Netaro: ≪Have you seen anyone suspicious around here?≫

Young man holding a phone: ≪Hmm. I was just out here on a walk trying to find something that’ll go viral…≫

Young man holding a phone: ≪Ah, but earlier–≫

Kinari: ≪Were you able to recall something?≫

Young man holding a phone: ≪I saw a man looking around restlessly. He looked super pale, was wearing a brown coat, and was all hunched over…≫

Young man holding a phone: ≪As soon as people noticed the man who collapsed over there and things got noisy, that guy bolted toward Baker Street.≫

Netaro: Ohhh! This guy deserves 10,000 points for being super suspicious!

Curious British Gal: ≪Ah, you mean that bloke, I saw him too! He had long blond hair, yeah?≫

Curious British Gal: ≪He suddenly bumped into me and made me spill my milk tea. Oh my god, this is literally the worst!≫

Kinari: … I see. Then there is a possibility that the culprit has milk tea on him.

Kinari: Just a short while ago when I was checking the area, though there were wet footprints nearby that man, the traces are starting to disappear. So, next we have to…

Netaro: …Ufufu.

Kinari: Yowa-sama?

Netaro: Ahaha! This case is already laid bare in front of a genius inventor like me!

Netaro: Come forth! ‘Crystal-Clear Trace-Detecting Magnifier’!

Netaro: Take a look at the ground with this magnifying glass, Nari. 

Kinari: ! I’m able to see the footprints clearly emerging from the surface. 

Netaro: This magnifier is a gadget that makes the smell from footprints visible in a kawaii way, letting you track footprints. If we use this, we can follow where the footprints lead–

Kinari: We can find the culprit, then.

Kinari: There are footprints surrounding the victim. We should follow them.

Curious British Gal: ≪Hey, can I go now? I promised to meet with a friend.≫

Young man holding a phone: ≪Me too. No matter how much I want to go viral, I want to avoid police cases.≫

Kinari: ≪Yes. Thank you for your cooperation. I recommend that you capture something cutesy if you want to go viral. Have a pleasant day, you two.≫

Netaro: Let’s follow these footprints, Nari! Our next destination is… Baker Street!

Track Two - The Human Flavor of Love and Hate

📍 England, Near Big Ben

Netaro: Helloooo, England!

Kinari: Our current location: the heart of London, Westminster Palace. We’re currently in front of Big Ben.

Kinari: That’s Big Ben. It seems strangely larger than what I’ve seen from the archives.

Netaro: Maybe it's that whooole 'weight of human history' thing that makes it feel that way.

Kinari: I see.

Netaro: Well, I don’t really get the logic behind it. Yoda said something about that before.

Kinari: Through the passage of time, the building itself becomes more dignified. What an interesting phenomenon.

Netaro: (Maybe it's because even if all living things were to die out, these inorganic objects would still remain in some form~ That may actually be kind of amazing!)

Netaro: Alright, Nari! What’s the most efficient route to check out all the hot spots? 

Netaro: The British Museum, The London Eye, Tower Bridge, Buckingham Palace, and the Kew Gardens. There’s soooo many places to see in England! 

Kinari: I would like to visit as many places as possible in order to write up a comprehensive travel report, but…

Kinari: I know you have a travel plan, but we’re restricted on time. I recommend that we select a few tourist spots to visit. 

Netaro: Hmmm– We came all the way here, so I wanna see everything! We’ll make it a 24 hour, non-stop England sightseeing marathon~!

Kinari: I apologize, but I cannot follow through with that. I believe I do not have enough battery life to sustain me for that long.

Netaro: Battery! Androids have it rough, too!

Netaro: Well then, let’s go as far as we can before time’s up. With charging breaks, of course!

Kinari: Thank you for your consideration. Then let me search for the best route while factoring in the best times at each location, so please wait for a bit.

Netaro: Yay! We’re finally getting to the good part!

Kinari: Search complete. Narrowing down the list of candidates.

Netaro: Mmm~ I kinda wanna check out one of those pub places too. Kidney pie♪ Fish and chips♪ Yorkshire pudding♪

Kinari: Additional search items have been included. Re-examining routes that include pubs.

Kinari: —Research result has been found. Then let’s go to the Westminster Hall over there. 

Netaro: Aye aye! Here’s where the real fun starts~!

—-

Netaro: Cooome to think of it, I’ve seen this view somewhere before. Where was it again…

Kinari: Perhaps from the news, or a video production set in England.

Kinari: Speaking of which, there’s a play featuring the work “Sherlock Holmes” by Conan Doyle.

Netaro: Sherlock Holmes! I went back and reviewed eeeeverything about him just for this trip! 

Kinari: Then, shall we make our way to Baker Street? There seems to be a Holmes monument and a museum related to Holmes in that area.

Netaro: Yippie–! Let’s go, let’s go–!

Kinari: Then, let me make additional changes to the route—

Netaro: Hmmumu?

Kinari: The path we are heading to seems to be quite busy. There’s a crowd of people gathered at the back of the alleyway.

Netaro: Ding! I smell a juicy mystery brewing!

Netaro: Let’s go, Nari!

Kinari: Ah…. Please wait for me, Yowa-sama.

—————————

Kinari: To understand the situation, I have activated the translator application.

Curious Gentleman: ≪Hey… is that person alright?≫

Curious Woman:  ≪I don’t know, maybe they’re completely wasted. With the way they’re just lying there… doesn’t seem too far-fetched to say they’re dead.≫

Netaro: I knew it! It really is a case!!

Kinari: It seems like an emergency.

Netaro: ‘Outta the way~~~!!!’ The great detective Netaro is on the scene~!!!!

Kinari: Yowa-sama. The man whose clothes have been torn off is lying on the ground.

Netaro: Is he alive!? Is he dead!? 

Kinari: There are signs of him breathing… I shall check whether he’s conscious or not.

Netaro: Mm? There’s something written on the wall in ink behind that guy. 

Kinari: Rache… it seems to be in German. It means—

Kinari: —Revenge…Netaro: Th-This is…!

Netaro: The return of Sherlock Holmes’ series: A Study in Scarlet—!

Track One - The Human Flavor of Love and Hate

📍 HAMA House, Living Room

Yodaka: (...What a nice smell. As expected of the Kilimanjaro Nanaki recommended. Going with a dark roast was the right choice.)

Yodaka: Hm…?

Kinari: Now, inspecting the suitcase. Final checks have been completed. There are no issues with the carry-on bags either.

Yodaka: Good morning, Kinari.

Kinari: Good morning, Natsume-sama.

Yodaka: Oh, that’s right. The ward mayor’s study trip… You guys are leaving today, right? 

Kinari: Yes. Through a fair lottery, Yowa-sama and I will be going to England.

Kinari: Since it is his first trip outside of the country, I have prepared for any unforeseen events that could occur.

Yodaka: As expected of Kinari. With you around, Netaro will be in good hands.

Kinari: Thank you.

–dorm shakes–

Netaro: Nari! Kept you waiting~♪ Morning to you too, Yoda!

Yodaka: Good morning. You’re carrying quite a lot, aren’t you Netaro? 

Kinari: …It seems like with each step he takes, something pops out from the back of his backpack and his carry-on.

Netaro: Aaahhhh~ My greatest invention of the century~! Could you pick it up for me in place of my two measly little arms, Nari~?

Kinari: Understood.

Kinari: (A baby chicken-shaped robot, a cushion with an unfamiliar shape… a lamp shaped like a jellyfish.)

Yodaka: It'll be dangerous if it pops out of the bag, and we don't want to lose it while moving around so let's tuck it back in tight.

Netaro: Shove it in with all your might! 

Yodaka: And there…

Kinari: Everything here has been packed..

Netaro: Nice, nice♪

Yodaka: Looks like Netaro's also all ready to go, though his backpack does seem a little tight. 

Kinari: I have calculated the weight of your luggage for this trip, and it is overweight by 50%.

Netaro: Because you’ll never know what might happen there, right~? So to make sure we can fully enjoy aaaaany emergencies, I packed every invention I could get my hands on!

Netaro: With all of this, any case will be solved in a snap♪ 

When you're in trouble, just count on me. How’s that? Pretty reassuring, no?

Kinari: Yes, it does reassure me. However, let’s avoid any possible trouble and ensure our trip goes smoothly, Yowa-sama.

Netaro: Aww~

Yodaka: Kinari’s right. Neither Nagi, the Chief or I are going to be there with you, so stay safe above all else.  

Ten: Phew, I’m back….

Netaro: Ohhh, Tengu! Webaaa~!

Ten: Whoa, what’s up with all that luggage?

Netaro: I’m off to an exciting trip with Nari to England! 

Ten: Ah, right. Have fun.

Ten: Though… what’s sticking out of your backpack? A grabber?

Netaro: That’s my invention: ‘The Rain-Cloud-Catcher-kun #8’!

Ten: The what now?

Netaro: I heard it rains a lot in England, right? So if it starts pouring, just use this to catch those rainclouds! Then poof, away they go! 

Netaro: Even the gloomiest skies will turn a bright, sunny blue before you know it! ...Or at least, they might. That's the brilliance of this little guy.

Ten: They might, huh.

Netaro: It's still in the prototype stage after all. I figured this trip would be the perfect chance to test it out!

Netaro: I'm counting on you to help fine-tune the settings, Nari♪

Kinari: Understood. Now that I have grasped the basic principles of this device, I shall put it in my luggage.

Netaro: I’ll leave it to you!

Ten: … That luggage you’ve got there, do you think it’d pass through security?

Yodaka: …I guess that depends on the materials used for the invention.

Kinari: If you’re stopped at inspections, rest assured, I will promptly deal with the situation.

Yodaka: Thank you. I appreciate it. 

Kinari: Then Yowa-sama, I’ll put your invention here.

Netaro: Yep! 

Netaro: Mm? This thing in Nari’s luggage… Is that crunchy candy!?

Kinari: Yes. Since you like them, it’d be good to carry them on board.

Netaro: Yippieee! So thoughtful! Let’s eat them together. 

Kinari: Of course. Also, it’s almost time we meet up with Master.

Netaro: It’s already time! Well then, let’s gooo! 

Yodaka: It's a study trip, but be sure to enjoy some sightseeing too. Take care and have a good trip.

Ten: Bring back something for me~

Kinari: Noted.

Netaro: To England we go! Time to take off!♪

Netara Yowa's SR Card Story: Tracing the Mystery of Dried Sardines and the Missing Sock

Translated by Tsukimi (@rurumiiii on twitter) Proofread by Aca, Myun, and Aurora

doc ver here!

PART 1

???: Wahhhh, this is bad, this is very very bad–

Location: HAMA House, Kitchen 

Kinari: What happened, Hachinoya-sama?

Netaro: What happened, what happened?? Are you perhaps in trouble?! Is it a case!?

Nagi: Kinari, Netaro. I need you two to stay calm and listen. Well, I know it might be hard to stay calm when someone suddenly tells you to, but in times like this, just spin around clockwise and let out a "woof”. 

Ten: The one who should stay calm is you, Nagi. 

Nagi: Sorry. Thanks for being an exemplary straight man here. I didn’t expect you to throw an extraordinary punchline like that. 

Netaro: Hm~! Just get to the point and spill it all out! Gii! Nagi: The truth is, they disappeared… Yukikaze-san’s dried sardines disappeared…

Nagi: Here, Yukikaze-san, please go on.

Yukikaze: Lately, the Chief's diet has been a bit unbalanced, so I thought I'd make a vegetable-packed miso soup. I even started by preparing the broth from scratch, but–

Yukikaze: The moment I looked away, the dried sardines I left here disappeared. 

Nagi: And also, one side of my freshly washed socks disappeared too. I've looked everywhere but I still can't find it. 

Netaro: I shee~. The vanished dried sardines and a lone sock. This reeks of a case in the making!

Nagi: I wonder where it went… Could it be because it didn’t like the detergent I was using, so it ran away from home…?

Ten: Ahaha, maybe. 

Kinari: At this rate, I believe master's vegetable-packed miso soup will end up without the dried sardine broth. 

Kinari: Hachinoya-sama might end up going around with that one-of-a-kind, a single sock fashion as well. 

Netaro: Alllllright. It’s our time to shine!

Netaro: Let's start the investigation: "The Mystery of the Vanished Dried Sardines and The Missing Single Sock!" Let's go, Narison!

Kinari: Understood, Yolmes-sama. I will once again do my best to resolve the case as your partner. 

Ten: So you've got the spirit of a famous detective, huh? 

Nagi: It's like one of those late-night detective variety shows.

Yukikaze: That's reassuring. I'm counting on you two. Please go and solve the mystery.

Netaro: Leave it to us!!

Netaro: With that said, let’s start with you, Tengu–

Ten: Ah. I was really just passing by, so I’ll be going now.

Netaro: What a party pooper~

Kinari: Yowa-sama.

Netaro: What is it, Nari? Do we gotta whisper? 

Kinari: I performed a body scan, but there were no traces of dried sardines inside Murakumo-sama's clothes. The socks he’s currently wearing are his as well.

Netaro: ...Well, that saves us some trouble! As expected of my partner, well done~!

Kinari: Thank you.

PART 2

Location: HAMA House, Kitchen 

Netaro: Well then, Gii and Yuki. Were there any strange things that happened when the sardines and the sock disappeared?

Yukikaze: Not in particular. I tend to notice when someone comes into the kitchen, so I don’t think anyone came in.

Yukikaze: By the way, Chief looked well today. It seems like they got a good sleep yesterday. 

Netaro: Hey! Bringing up Doudou out of nowhere like that almost feels like you're tryna throw off the investigation~!

Kinari: However, that's how he normally behaves, even when things are calm. 

Netaro: What about Gii?

Nagi: Same here. I even went all out doing radio calisthenics while waiting for the laundry to finish, but no one showed up.

Netaro: ……….

Netaro: Nari~

Kinari: What is it, Yowa-sama?

Netaro: By some chance, would this case be solved if we just find a new pack of dried sardines and a matching single sock? 

Kinari: Yes. It would solve the problem, but the mystery itself would remain unsolved. 

Netaro: Soooomehow, the whole thing's starting to feel like a meaningless mystery~

Kinari: (Detected a decline in Yowa-sama's whim. He seems to be losing interest in this case.) 

Kinari: (Are there any clues…)

Kinari: ! Please pay attention to that, Yowa-sama. There are bits of dried sardines lying in the hallway.

Netaro: You’re right! Are those the traces to the culprit? 

Kinari: I have estimated there's over an 80% chance that it is. Let us trace the dried sardines and see where it leads. 

Location: HAMA House, Dog Room

Netaro: …It’s Daa’s room, hm.

Netaro: Could it be that Daa’s the culprit? Then is his motive–

Netaro: To eat dried sardines while styling the lone sock? 

Kinari: At this point, we don't have enough information to draw any conclusions. Let us start by questioning the people involved first. 

Netaro: Nooooo way! If we keep dawdling around, all the dried sardines might get eaten! I'm invoking my detective's privilege, time to barge! 

Kinari: Please wait, Yowa-sama.

Kinari: …This–

PT: Meow~

Daniel: Hey, PT. Where'd you get that sock from? 

PT: Meow.

Daniel: There's dried sardines all over the floor... I gotta clean this up before Nayuki gets back. 

Netaro: Whameow?! So the culprit wasn't Daa... it was PT all along!

Daniel: Culprit? No, why are you guys even here in the first place?

Kinari: Such and so had happened. There was an incident. 

PT: Meoww–

Daniel: *Sigh*, I get it. So this little rascal's the one who caused all that trouble. 

Daniel: My bad. PT's sorry too, so I hope you guys can let it slide. I'll make sure to apologize to Yukikaze and Nagi later, too. 

PT: Meow!

Netaro: The secret of the case that left us no clues to follow... Was those paw pads, huh?  

Netaro: How meticulous of you, PT. It was a case that only we could uncover. 

Netaro: Well then, we're gonna do some examining of those soft, squishy pads–

PT: Hisss!

Netaro: Hoh? 

PT: Meow.

Kinari: PT-sama has jumped into my arms. 

Kinari: The culprit has been taken into custody. During a situation like this… There, there… Is that to your satisfaction?

PT: Nyaaaa!

Netaro: Hmph~! I just don't get why animals run away from me! Netaro: Well, whatever. Anyways, case closed! We're a great pair, after all♪ Leave any mystery that needs to be solved to us!

Nina Yu SSR: Wink Sandwich

google docs ver here!

Translated by Tsukimi (@rurumiiii) Proofread by Aca, Dimi, and Myun!

Part One

On a particular day off. While out shopping, I happened to spot a familiar face in the crowd. 

Roka: Thanks for today! Being able to spend this precious time with you fills my heart to the brim!

Yu: Is that so.

Ito: (Is that Roka-san and Nina-san? It looks like they just left the cafe. It’s quite unusual to see them together.)

Yu: …..

Ito: (Ah…..)

Noticing me staring, Nina-san's gaze… It felt like our eyes met for a moment, but he turned and walked away with Roka-san without saying anything…

————————

A few days after that happened. At long last, the event was finally tomorrow. I was doing the final checks with Kise-san and Nina-san—

Roka: Yuzu-kun, Yappi!!! Good work today~!

Ito: Thank you for your hard work, Roka-san.

Roka: How’s everything going? Are all the preparations on track?

Yuzuru: Thanks to everyone, everything is proceeding according to plan. Was there something you needed to do here? 

Roka: Nope. Was just thinking about how the event's finally tomorrow and I couldn't wait, so here I am!

Ito: (That’s very like him.)

Roka: By the way, where is Yu-han—

Suddenly, Nina-san appeared from the kitchen. 

Roka: Oh! Found a wild Yu-han! Thanks for ya hard work!

Yu: Good work. 

Yu: The food preparations are done, Kise. I’ll help you check the equipment. 

Yuzuru: You’re as quick as ever with your work. But everything’s fine here, so take a short break.

Yu: No need. I’ll help. 

Roka: Yu-han... Yu-han!

Yu: What is it. 

Roka: The time has finally come to put the 'market research' from the other day to use!

Ito:  (Market research….?)

Yuzuru: Did you guys conduct some kind of separate investigation?

Roka: Yep! For the sake of this event, Yu-han and I did a secret fast food investigation!

Yuzuru: A fast food investigation….?

When Kise-san and I tilted our heads at the same time, Roka-san puffed out his chest proudly.

Part Two

Roka: It’s because Yu-han said he doesn’t eat hamburgers and stuff like that very often.

Ito: (That's true. I can't really imagine Nina-san eating fast food…)

Yu: It's not that I don't eat it at all. I wouldn’t go out of my way to buy it for myself. 

Roka: That's why I thought I'd invite you to a cafe that serves a burger I recommend!

Ito: (Ah, was that why I saw them there that day?)

Yuzuru: How was the investigation? 

Yu: ……

Roka: Glad you asked! 

————————

Waitress: Here’s your food.

Roka: It’s finally here! My hamburger, fries, and this huge milkshake!

Roka: This is the King set. Well then, time to dig innn!

Roka: Yep! Delicious as always! The meaty, juicy flavor is absolutely the best!☆

Yu: Good for you. 

Roka: The saltiness of the fries is just right. The inside is soft and fluffy, while the outside is crispy. Just the perfect texture! 

Yu: Is that so. 

Roka: The shake is made of pure white love! Sweet and rich, it hits right in the heart!

Yu: I see.

————————

Roka: So, that’s basically how it went!

Ito: (I don’t know how to explain this, but Roka-san’s comments had some kind of a punch to them…)

Yuzuru: What did you eat, Yu?

Yu: A sandwich.

Yuzuru: A sandwich….

Ito: (That makes it sound like Roka-san was the only one who conducted the fast food market research…)

Ito: (Kise-san is the one running the kitchen in the first place, and Nina-san isn't supposed to be involved in creating the menu.)

Ito: (Despite that, Nina-san went along with Roka-san to conduct  market research….)

Nina-san started speaking, perhaps because my surprise was written all over my face.

Yu: There’s likely a chance that I would use something that Roka would usually say. 

Yu: So the reason for him asking me out itself was slightly different. 

Ito: So you mean…?

Roka: It's important to know what you're serving, right? 

Roka: But I think Yu-han should eat what Yu-han likes!

Roka: So I invited him and told him that I'll enjoy the burger while he can just hear my thoughts on it!

Yu: I thought he had a point, so I agreed.

Ito: I see.

Ito: (So Roka-san's invitation was something Nina-san saw as necessary for the job.) 

Ito: (As expected, he's someone who takes his work seriously. I should learn from him.)

It seemed like Kise-san had the same thought as he sent a reassuring glance towards Nina-san.  Noticing our gaze, Nina-san wore his usual cool expression.

Part Three

The day of the event arrived.  The American Diner we had prepared was a huge success.  Even now, the customers have not stopped pouring in, and the entire team was busy moving around.

Yu: Kise, it’s your break time. Switch with me. 

Yuzuru: Thanks. I’ll leave it to you.

Yu: Got it.

And so, Nina-san took charge of the kitchen after taking over for Kise-san. As always, he worked with a sharp focus, and his movements were swift and precise as he handled the cooking with ease. 

Ito: (Despite the vibrant, pop-style decor, he somehow gives off the aura of a sushi chef at work.) Female customer: Hey, Sir! Can I get another order of fries?

Yu: Coming up.

Yu: Thank you for waiting. Here’s the hamburger you ordered. 

Male customer: Thank you so much. 

Male customer: You’re really handy at serving food out.

Yu: Thanks.

Ito: (It might be because the counter kitchen brings him so close to them, but the customers have been talking to him quite a bit.)

Yu: Here’s the vanilla shake.

Boy: Woahhh, it looks so yummy!

The next customer to pick up their order was a little boy, accompanied by someone who seemed to be his mother.  He grabbed the large vanilla shake with both hands and flashed a sparkling, innocent smile at Nina-san. 

Boy: What does it taste like? Is it sweet?

Yu: …..

Yu: {White Love. It is sweet and rich, and has a flavor that hits right in the heart.}

At that moment, not just me, but all the Aporia members nearby turned to look at Nina-san. However, he remained unfazed, wearing his usual calm expression. 

Ito: (Did I… hear that right?)

Boy: Ohhh, I see. I can’t wait to try White Love~!

Ito: (Yeah, there’s no doubt I heard that right.)

That was when I suddenly remembered the story about the market research at the cafe I had heard last night.

Ito: (That’s right. Roka-san’s food review…)

Ito: (That's why he said something that seemed so unlike him... It surprised me.)

Boy: Woahh, you’re right! It’s so yummy! Thank you, mister~!

Yu: …..

Ito: …..

Did Nina-san accept Roka-san's invitation because he had anticipated moments like this?  Either way, there's no doubt that his investigation turned out to be really helpful in the end. 

Ito: (White Love….)

Some lingering shock and a growing sense of amusement, that's what I found myself thinking about.

Netaro Yowa SR Card Story: Mission: Become Besties with the Rabbits!

Translated by Tsukimi (@rurumiiii on twitter) Proofread by Jes, Aca, and Myun

doc ver here!

PART 1

Location: HAMA House, 2nd Floor Hallway

Netaro: Stareeeee— 

Chief: What are you doing, Netaro-kun?

Netaro: Hmm~? I’m watching Lulee’s rabbits.

Chief: Um… The door is closed, though.

Netaro: He’s gonna glare at me if I open it~. I wanna get closer to the rabbits, but Lulee said I'm not allowed to be near them.

Netaro: That's why I was just staring at the rabbits, trying to figure out the best way to make my move. 

Chief: I-I see…

Chief: (So Netaro-kun wants to be friends with the rabbits. Liguang-san really cares about them too, so I gotta watch my words…)

Chief: If you do something for Liguang-san’s rabbits, there’s a chance you’ll please him. 

Netaro: …OH!

Netaro: I understand perfectly! I’ll do that, Doudou!

*Netaro runs off*

Location: HAMA House, Living Room

Netaro: Lulee!!

Chief: (It’s Netaro-kun. I wonder if he's already putting that advice I gave him the other day into practice.)

Netaro: There’s no way any rabbit could resist this! Take this! My homemade ‘Rabbit Melty Love Tunnel’!

Liguang: ….What?

Netaro: Boom! Here comes the ‘Rabbit Huggy-Wuggy Meatbun!’ After 3 loooooong days, I finally succeeded in making the dough and filling it with timothy powder(FN) and all sorts of other things!

Netaro: …And so?? How’s that?

Will you let me meet your rabbits now?

Liguang: …No.

Netaro: What??? Whyyyyyy!?!?!

Liguang: I don’t need to explain it. Don’t give me strange things.  

Netaro: Aw man~ Sniff sniff…

Chief: (Netaro-kun looks really sad.)

Chief: Erm… Liguang-san? …Liguang-san.

Liguang: …What is it.

Chief: Was there something wrong with Netaro-kun’s present?

Liguang: …When I looked inside the tunnel, I saw something wriggling. 

Liguang: I don't know what the exact ingredients are or where these buns were manufactured. There's no way I can feed something like that to them. 

Chief: …Th-That makes sense. Sorry, and thank you for answering.

—————

Chief: Is now a good time, Netaro-kun?

Netaro: Wahhh! For my invention to not get through him! Are Lulee’s rabbits some kind of impenetrable Juliets~?

Chief: There there… I talked to Liguang-san, and I think it might be safer if you give something commercially available for rabbits. 

Netaro: ! Is that sooo?

Netaro: …Okie! I shall appoint Doudou as the advisor for Mission: Become Besties with the Rabbits! 

Chief: Huh?

Netaro: Now that we know the gist, let’s go shopping! Off we go, to hunt down the perfect bribe for Lulee~!

Chief: Huh!? I’m coming too–?!

Footnote:

Ground powder from Timothy hay, given to animals like rabbits, chinchillas, etc!

PART 2

Location: Supermarket

Chief: It'd probably be in the pet supplies section, if anywhere. How about looking for a present there? 

Netaro: Look Doudou! It's a rabbit costume! Since Lulee loves rabbits, maybe I won't even need a bribe if I just wear this!?

Chief: ……Let’s just go to the pet supplies section!

Location: HAMA House, 2nd Floor Hallway

Liguang: I’ll leave that to you.

Sojun: Understood.

Netaro: Lulee—!!

Liguang: Hah… It’s you again.

Netaro: Behold, I present these rabbit treats! Please accept this offering~.

Liguang: …..Sojun.

Sojun: ...No signs of it being opened. There are no punctured holes or anything either. It should be fine.

Netaro: So will you let me meet the rabbits now!?

Liguang: ….I’ll give you 120 seconds. No more than that. 

Location: HAMA House, Rabbit Room 

Liguang: Sit over there and don’t make any sudden movements. Don’t raise your voice too. 

Netaro: Okay~!

Liguang: Only Ryanpin will be let out. It’s used to being around people.

Ryanpin: Pukyu…

Netaro: Ryanpin~. Wanna eat the dried carrots I bought as an offering for you? 

Netaro: Mm? …It’s shaking. Could it be shaking from joy? 

Liguang: …It’s scared of mysterious people.

Netaro: No way! My name’s Netaro Yowa! I’m a friend, be not afraid! I’m not scary! Rather, I’m kawaii!

Liguang: Shut it. Don’t move.

Netaro: …

Chief: (Netaro-kun’s frozen in place, trying not to make any movements…)

Ryanpin: …Mokyu.

Netaro: !!

Chief: I-It ate the carrot! From Netaro-kun’s hand!

Netaro: Hey, can I pet it!?

Liguang: No.

Netaro: How speedy! Well, in that case, it can’t be helped—

Netaro: ……

Chief: Ne-Netaro-kun… Make sure to breathe, okay~...?

Liguang: It’s about time. Go back into the cage, Ryanpin.

Ryanpin: Kyuu!

Netaro: ….Wah!

Netaro: It just nuzzled….! Ryanpin just nuzzled into my hand!

Liguang: …It was just a brief brush while it passed by. 

Netaro: Ohhh, what’s this? Are you jealous that Ryanpin has taken a liking to me~?

Netaro: Hey, Ryanpin~. The fluffy, soft, and beloved Ryanpin. You like me, right~?

Netaro: ……… Can I eat you up?

Ryanpin: Kyuu!! …Kyuuu…. 

Liguang: !

Liguang: Get out. The 120 seconds are up.

Netaro: Why!? We were just gazing at each other passionately!

Liguang: …Just get out. From now on, you’re banned from going near them.

Location: HAMA House, 2nd Floor Hallway

Netaro: I got kicked out in the blink of an eye.

Chief: Ahaha… Maybe that was Liguang-san's way of making the biggest compromise. 

Netaro: Well, whatever. After all, I learned that the rabbits don’t hate me!

Netaro: From now on, I shall use my skills and swoon Lulee’s rabbits~♪ Chief: Try not to get on Liguang-san’s bad side before you do that…

Yuzuru Kise SR: Treating Wounds with Care

OHHHH THE PICTURE IS SO LOW QUALITY LMAOOOO google docs ver here! Translated by Tsukimi (@rurumiiii) Proofread by Aca, Dimi, and Myun!

Part One

???: —ACHOOOO!

Ito: (Huh…?)

It was some time after work hours had ended. A loud sneeze echoed through the empty office, though I should’ve been the only person in the room.

Ito: (That sound just now… Was that—)

Ito: (Rare-kun?)

Ito: Did you catch a cold…? 

Rare: Good boy, Rare-kun! Attaboy ☆

Ito: (Hm… He looks fine, but I’m still worried.)

Yuzuru: Oh, Yashiro-san. You’re looking at Rare so intently… Is there something wrong? 

As I stood troubled in front of the cage, Kise-san, who had been gone for a while, returned. He was holding a large bag I didn’t recognize. I was curious about what was inside, however…

Ito: (Rare-kun’s condition is more important right now, so I’ll ask about the bag later.)

Ito: You’ve come at a good time, Kise-san. Actually, just now—

Rare: ACHOOOOOO!

Ito: Ah, another huge sneeze…

Ito: (But that one just now sounded oddly human.)

Yuzuru: Ohh, right. About that… 

Yuzuru: Yesterday, Urara came to the office and kept sneezing. It seemed like he’d come down with a cold. 

Rare: ACHOOO! ‘Ts not a big deal. 

Ito: I see… So he’s imitating Manami-san.

I felt a wave of relief knowing that Rare-kun was fine. However—

Ito: Is Manami-san doing okay?

Yuzuru: He had a slight fever, so we had him go back to the dorms early yesterday.

Yuzuru: I messaged him this morning, and he is “all good”.

Yuzuru: But I’m still worried, so I was planning to check on him on the way back home. 

Ito: Then, is that large bag…

Yuzuru: I borrowed the cafe’s kitchen to make some food for him as a get-well present.

Yuzuru: I made things that are easy on the stomach and seemed nutritious. Before I knew it, I ended up making quite a lot.

Ito: (I see. No wonder it’s so big.)

Ito: In that case, I will take care of locking up the office. Please go ahead and check on Manami-san as soon as possible, Kise-san.

Yuzuru: But since it’s already gotten so late, letting you stay for overtime is—

Ito: I am almost done with my work, so please do not worry. All that’s left for me to do is to clean up. 

Yuzuru: …Then, I’ll take you up on the offer. I’ll leave it to you to lock up the office. 

Just as Kise-san was getting ready to leave, the office door opened.

Ito: Manami-san?

Part Two

Urara: Hah?

Urara: Don’t just dawdle around this late. Go home. 

Ito: I’m sorry, I’ll head home right away. However, I heard that you got sick—

Urara: Don’t start treating me like a patient.

Rare: ‘Ts not a big deal!

Urara: Don’t say my line before I do.

Yuzuru: Are you really okay? I told you it was fine to take a day off to rest.

Urara: Hah? The cleaning from yesterday’s not done.

Yuzuru: I was about to tell you, it’s fine, you don’t have to worry about it—

Urara: The hell do you mean ‘s fine.

Yuzuru: !

Yuzuru: Sorry Urara… I worded it badly. The cleaning was just finished by Roka-san and I.

Yuzuru: I wasn’t clear with my wording. I’m really sorry. 

Urara: …Tch. Shut up, you’re apologizing too much. 

Urara: If it’s all done, I’m leaving. 

Yuzuru: Ah, wait. Then take these home and eat them. 

As Manami-san turned to leave the office, Kise-san held out the bag to him. 

Urara: The hell? You’re always doing unnecessary stu— So fucking heavy!

Urara: You made way too fucking much! 

Yuzuru: It’s important that you recover properly, so you need to get enough nutrition. 

Yuzuru: I’ve packed everything into storage containers, so at least take home whatever you think you can eat. 

Urara: …

Urara: If I just leave it in the fridge, I can still eat it tomorrow all the same.

Ito: (Ah…)

Manami-san, who had been so worked up just moments ago, accepted the entire bag with a solemn expression. Watching him, I realized that this was his way of showing gratitude. 

Yuzuru: You’ve just recovered, so don’t push yourself. 

Urara: You’re meddling now?

Yuzuru: Yeah, I’m ‘meddling’.

Urara: …Shut up.

Kise-san’s eyes softened slightly.

Ito: Manami-san, please take care. 

Urara: So annoying. 

Manami-san left the office, acting as he usually does.

Ito: Looking at him, he seemed.

Yuzuru: …I feel a little relieved. 

Yuzuru: I was worried since I thought Urara would hide it even if he wasn’t feeling well. 

I’m glad to see that he’s really doing okay.

Ito: (Kise-san looks genuinely relieved.)

Ito: I hope he gets plenty of proper rest. Manami-san looks like an honest person, after all. 

Yuzuru: …!

Yuzuru: I’m thankful you think that way of him. 

Yuzuru: I’ve mentioned this before, but Urara behaves like that with everyone, so he’s easily misunderstood. 

Yuzuru: But he does have an honest side, and surprisingly, he’s quite reliable. 

Ito: Yes, I think I understand what you mean. 

Ito: We haven’t spent much time together, so I feel like I might make him angry if I say I understand him. 

Yuzuru: I’m glad… to see you perceive Urara without any preconceptions, Yashiro-san.

Ito: Me too.

Ito: I’m glad that I’m able to work with someone who can think that way like you.

Yuzuru: Then the feeling is mutual. 

Yuzuru: …Somehow, it feels a bit embarrassing to say these things out loud. 

Today, Aporia felt as comfortable as always.  I couldn’t help but feel that it must be thanks to Kise-san.

Urara Manami SR: Stacking up Lone Clouds

google doc ver here! Translated by Tsukimi (@rurumiiii) Proofread by Aca, Dimi, and Myun

Part One

I was preparing for the dress-up event with a few Aporia members.  Thinking I was just about done, I looked up. Mika-san was looking this way, and our eyes met.

Mikado: Ito, Urara. Do you have a minute?

Urara: Hah?

Ito: Of course. Is something wrong?

Mikado: A little while ago, we talked about adding inste-worthy stuff to the menu, right? Once you're done with your current task, I'd like you two to go to Chinatown and gather some ideas. What do you think? 

Ito: I don’t mind, but…

Urara: Why do I gotta get dragged into this too? She’s not a child, she can go by herself. 

Ito: (I thought so…)

Mikado: There were a lot of good stores when we went out shopping the other day, right Urara? 

Your job is to be her guide. Look around and find some ideas together while you're at it.

Since you’re not a child either, the least you can do is lead the way, no? 

Urara: Tch.

Manami-san didn't say anything further and went back to his work. 

———

By the time I reached a stopping point in my work, he was already waiting at the entrance. 

Urara: Hurry up. I’m gonna leave you behind. 

Ito: Sorry, I’ll be right there.

Just as we were about to step outside, a familiar face walked into the store. 

Sei: Oya, Yashiro-san and Urara-kun. Are you two heading out somewhere?

Urara: Hah? ‘S got nothing to do with you. 

Manami-san cut off the conversation short, but Sei-san smiled without flinching.

Sei: I see… So you’re going out to look for ideas to add to the menu.

Urara: Huh? 

Ito: (Eh.)

Sei: Fufu. I was aware that you two were considering something like that, so I just took a guess. 

Sei: Judging from your reactions, it looks like I hit the mark.

I was stunned into silence, and Manami-san was visibly put off. It might have just been me, but he seemed to be more on edge than usual, keeping a noticeable amount of distance from Sei-san.

Urara: Oi, ignore him. Let’s go. 

Sei: Are you going to leave? And here I was, about to offer a special suggestion to you two.

Urara: …What is it. 

Sei: A suggestion about pairing a menu set with Huangshan Maofeng tea.

Urara: …Huangshen Maofeng tea?

Sei: It's a type of Chinese tea. It has a rich aroma and a mellow sweetness. 

Sei: Just by pairing it with a menu set will make it all the more splendid.

Ito: I see. It might be a good idea to go find a menu that pairs well with that tea then.

Urara: Whatever.

Sei: If that’s settled, let’s head out immediately.

Urara: What? Why the hell are you—

Sei: I’m the only one who knows the taste of this tea, after all.

Well then, won’t you lead the way? 

Urara: Don’t fuck with me!

Part Two

In the end, the three of us would end up going together… While looking for menu ideas, I couldn't help but notice Manami-san's behavior. 

Urara: Hah…

Ito: (It feels like he’s more on edge than usual.)

Urara: …

Ito: (Hm?)

The moment his sullen eyes widened just a bit… 

Sei: Oya. Urara-kun seems to take an interest in those panda buns over there.

Urara: !

I followed Sei-san's gaze and spotted a store selling cute panda buns. 

Sei: Do you perhaps like pandas?

Urara: H-Hah?!

Urara: Why the hell do I have to tell you something like that? 

Ito: (He’s not denying it…)

Ito: Um… Since we’re here, should we give them a try?

Sei: Of course.

Urara: I don’t want any.

Sei: Is that so… Well then, Ito-san and I shall go get some. 

After we bought the panda buns, Sei-san started eating immediately. 

Sei: Oh my! Isn’t this just wonderful? 

Sei: The rich sweetness of the red bean paste and the faint aroma of sesame stirs up my appetite—

Urara: So annoying. Just shut up and eat.

Sei: Oya…

Ito: (Yeah, it really is sweet and delicious.)

Ito: Panda buns seem like a good idea. They look cute too, so it might be an inste-worthy menu item.

Urara: …Idiot. It wouldn’t work. 

Ito: Huh?

Urara: Huangshen Maofeng tea’s sweet, so the whole set’s gonna be nothing but fucking sweet. 

Ito: (That’s true…)

Sei: There’s no need to worry.

Sei: I happen to have another tea recommendation. 

Sei: It’s called Anxi Tieguanyin tea, and it pairs well with the sweetness.

Sei: If it’s with this, then we can keep the panda buns into consideration. What do you think? 

Urara: …

Urara: …Do what you want. 

Ito: I think that’s a great idea too.

Ito: (Not just because they’re cute and delicious, but also because Manami-san seemed interested in them. I’m glad Sei-san suggested it.)

Sei: Well then, let's use this as a basis to suggest our original 'panda buns' to everyone. 

Sei: I will buy a few more as reference materials, so please wait. 

Urara: Hurry up and go.

Sei-san went to line up at the storefront. Manami-san let out a deep sigh as we watched him go.

Urara: …So annoying—

Ito: Are you feeling tired? I’m sorry for making you tag along. 

Urara: Hah? Don’t mess with me. There's no way I'd get tired from something like this. That guy’s just creepy as hell. 

Ito: Um…

Urara: ’M talking about Okiya. He’s fucking shady as hell.

Urara: People like that're usually trouble. Nothing good ever comes from getting involved with people like him. 

Ito: (So that’s why he was acting a bit different from usual.)

Sei: Sorry to keep you waiting. 

Ito: Welcome back, Sei-san. 

Sei: Here is one for Urara-kun too. Apparently, this one isn’t as sweet. 

Urara: Told you I don’t want it. Don’t do anything unnecessary. You eat it.

Sei: I politely refuse. It is because I bought this specifically for you, Urara-kun.

Urara: …

Ito: (Ah…)

With a displeased look on his face, Manami-san took the small wrapped bundle handed to him. Though he usually has a rough personality, seeing him carefully settle the bundle into his arms made me smile, just a little.

Netaro Yowa SR Story: It’s a Super-Duper Fluffy Thing!

Proofread by Jelly, Aca, and Myun google doc ver. here!

PART 1

Location: Yamanashi, Glamping Facility

Toi: We’re having barbecue for lunch today, right? I’m looking forward to it~♪

Chief: Yeah. We should probably go shopping soon. Is there anyone who wants to come–

Netaro: Meeeee! I shall go! Picking and choosing human ingredients looks fun~!

Ryui: Keep it down next to Toi! The hell would you do if you messed up his eardrums?!

Nagi: I think we can leave it to Netaro if it’s just buying groceries. 

Chief: I think so too. But the list is pretty long, so I’m worried about letting him go alone. Maybe it’d be easier if you take the car. 

Yodaka: The car, hm… In that case, someone with a license needs to go with him. 

Ryui: Toi and I are gonna help out around the shop, so I’m out. 

Ryui: But. Someone who’s got common sense and can keep an eye on him should go with him. Who knows what the hell Yowa’ll end up buying if he goes alone. 

Toi: Someone who has a license, is sensible, and can watch over him… Then that leaves  Chief-san, Nagi-kun, and Danny-san?

Yodaka: Danny would likely buy nothing but alcohol.

Daniel: Haha, that’s right! You know me. 

Nagi: Then I will—

Netaro: I want Doudou to come with me! I feel like hanging out with Doudou today!

Chief: Me? Sure. Then let’s go together. 

Nagi: …….Ah. Okay, be careful.

Nagi: Netaro, don’t cause too much trouble for Chief. You can have up to 7 pieces of hard candy. 

Ryui: That’s a lot.

Netaro: Okay~! Let’s take off, Doudou!

Chief: W-Woah! Don’t pull on me, Netaro-kun~!!

Location: Supermarket

Chief: Lean meat, beef tongue, onions, bell peppers, shrimp, scallops– What else do we need again? …Oh, butter. I wonder which aisle it is in.

Netaro: Doudou, these too!

Chief: Woah, you brought a lot! They’re all colorful and cute, but it’s all snacks. I don’t think we can buy all of that…

Netaro: Whaaaa, I want them all~! I want a basket filled to the brim with them~!

Chief: Sorry, we’re on a budget. I think I can buy at least a few for you, though. …Hm?

Chief: This is—Nice find, Netaro-kun! This will be perfect for the barbeque!

Netaro: Ehehe. Right~?

PART 2

Location: Yamanashi, Glamping Facility

Ryui: Here, Toi. The oil will fly everywhere, so just wait over there. I’ll go grill them.

Toi: Yay! Thank you, Ani-sama!

Netaro: Umuuuu…

Netaro: What shall I do? Shall I arrange them like this?

Ryui: The hell is he doing?

Nagi: He’s skewering something… I just hope it’s edible.

Chief: I think you’ll find out soon. Let’s leave him be for now. 

Netaro: Mhm. In the end, this order is definitely the best! And for the last part, just stab this in–

Netaro: Tada–! It’s done! My exclusive, colorful, fluffy human skewer~!

Yodaka: I see, you were making a marshmallow skewer. 

Nagi: Thank goodness. If it’s marshmallows, then we’re fine. Even though the appearance looks merciless. 

Toi: Waah, it looks like a gingerbread cookie! It’s so colorful and cute~!

Netaro: Yep! This is great, no~? I shall grant you permission to take inspiration from me.

Netaro: Well then, let’s get burning~! 

Ryui: Woah, you idiot! You can’t just throw it into the fire!

Netaro: Noooooo! My marshmallows got burnt in the blink of an eye~!!

Chief: I-It’s fine! There’s still a lot of marshmallows left. Let’s roast some new ones, okay? 

Netaro: Uegh, it failed~. Gii and Ryui are ruined too…

Ryui: What?

Nagi: …Why me?

Netaro: I put your names onto it! Here. These marshmallows are shaped like humans, mhm? This is Daa, and this one’s Yoda–

Yodaka: I see. You named the marshmallows after us?

Nagi: Eh? Then, that means I went up in flames? 

Netaro: Went up in flames. We shall only hope that this Gii won’t fall into the same fate. 

Ryui: You bastard, what do you think you’re–

Toi: So this is how Netaro-san sees us? Everyone’s so cute~!

Ryui: …You better make sure Toi’s marshmallow stays intact.

Yodaka: If the marshmallows represent us… does that mean this sausage at the far right is you?

Netaro: Ding ding! That’s right!

Netaro: This octopus sausage is super well-done, no? It looks exaaaactly like me~!

Daniel: Exactly like you? Where?

Netaro: Hmmm? Is this the only form of me Daa knows? I might look like this right now, but actually—

Nagi: A-Ah um—.... His hair. He’s talking about his hair. 

Nagi: Look, Netaro’s hair might look normal now, but sometimes when he wakes up, he gets this extreme bed-head and it sticks out like a bunch of octopus tentacles. 

Nagi: Right, Netaro? 

Netaro: Nnnn? Mmm, ya. That’s what I meant. 

Daniel: Huh? Ohh, ok. I don’t really get it, but I got it. 

Nagi: (Phew, we managed to cover it up…)

Netaro: However, even though the octopus sausage is fine, the marshmallows are all burnt…

Netaro: Seriously, why are human-shaped things always so fragile? 

Toi: But that’s what’s cute about it! They look so fluffy that I want to give it a big hug! 

Netaro: Oh, good eye! I see you’re also quite the human connoisseur, Toi. This is what they call cuteness aggression! It’s a super-duper-fluffy thing~! ♪

Daniel: …Hey, they’re talking about the marshmallows, right? 

Chief: Um… I believe so?

Yodaka: Fufu, what an innocent smile. 

Netaro: Okie, let’s start grilling the next fluffy skewers! I can’t waiiittt to eat them~!
