Kumon: Thanks for coming along to the corner candy shop with me, guys!
Yuki: If you were that overly excited to eat candy, then we had no choice but to go with you, you know?
Azami: What he said.
Muku: But it’s always exciting to come to the corner candy store, isn’t it?
Azami: Yeah, they sell black candies.
Muku: They also have ring chocolates!
Kumon: Ahh!
Yuki: What is it this time?
Kumon: It’s a Tigers raffle!
Yuki: The Tigers are your favourite baseball team, right?
Kumon: Yeah, yeah! I knew this launched last week. But I couldn't find any store nearby that was doing it, so I gave up.
Candy shop owner: You’re in luck. This just came in today.
Kumon: Yay! Then I’ll give it a try!
Candy shop owner: Choose a number you’d like between 1 and 30. Prize A is a pin badge set of their past uniforms.
Kumon: I gotta have that!
Candy shop owner: There’s only two Prize A’s, so good luck.
Kumon: Yep! Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta get it…
Muku: You can do it, Kyu-chan!
Kumon: …Alright! I'll choose 9, the same as my name!
Candy shop owner: Number 9, hm? Ok, here you go.
Kumon: Ughh, my heart’s pounding…
Yuki: What’d you get?
Kumon: THIS IS——…!
-pause-
Kumon: …I’m home.
Izumi: Welcome back~.
Kumon: …
Izumi: What’s wrong, Kumon-kun? You look kind of down…
Muku: He tried a Tigers raffle at the candy store, but he only got two Prize C’s and a Prize F…
Kumon: They’re my fave baseball team, so I’m happy with them. But, man, I really wanted Prize A~.
Itaru: You’re too OP to be able to stop after 3 tries. You should be proud of your mental strength.
Kumon: I remembered how Itaru-san mentioned the "greed sensor" a lot, so I held back.
Izumi: (I don’t know whether that’s good or bad for his education…)
TV sound: “—Now then, here’s today’s hot news!” “In America, the winner of a lottery draw worth one billion yen in the United States has appeared!”
Azami: One billion is amazin’.
Muku: How dreamy!
Izumi: That sounds just like the American dream, huh!
TV sound: “The winner used an astonishing method to determine the winning numbers. And that method was… dowsing fortune-telling!”
Yuki: Dowsing fortune-telling?
Itaru: It’s a type of fortune-telling where you hang a string with a stone or some other weight attached to it. And the direction or way the weight moves predicts the result. You ask a question in your subconsciousness and it finds what you’re looking for, or derives a yes or no answer.
Kumon: …! That’s it!!
