Today is the last day of the May Festival, the so-called Easy Day, but even though it is morning, the crowd doesn't look any less. The "manager", who was blurry and looking out at such a thing, was drawn back to reality with the voice of his deputy.

"You can't."

"Can't you still do it?"

"Yes, I don't know where those sub-people are going home, but in any case there are crowds around this Saurand...... too many people. It's going to be hard to sneak off."

"Wouldn't it be after we got into a place without eyes?

"That means we went into the woods, that is, into their realm. The difficulty will increase."

"Right... I have no choice but to reply to my own country."

"Are you pretty upset in your own country?

"Of course not? The monopoly system on sugar that you've been maintaining might collapse, huh? It would be natural to have a sense of crisis."

"Yep... that's right..."

What, did you say something?

"Something bothering you?

"Why did the subhumans try to reveal sugar in the form of tea houses?

... What's going on?

The deputy man goes on to state where he thinks the manager's suspicion was on his face.

"If we're going to break our country's monopoly system, it should be easier to distribute enough sugar to the city at once. If we let merchants in between, we could have hidden our existence. Why didn't you do it?

A store manager who is only as vain as a second to his deputy's point, and then reconsiders and thinks carefully. It does seem that the deputy pointed out that he was shooting at Masako.

"I didn't... No, why couldn't I..."

The manager will think about it. What are the advantages, where is the inevitability, and what is the intent of publishing the sugar in the form of tea houses without adopting methods such as those described by the deputy secretary….

① I wanted to promote the tea room (Bo) instead of sugar.

② I wanted to inform the general public as well as merchants about the involvement of the subpeople.

③ I wanted to inform the general public as well as the merchants about the new sugar.

• I wanted to increase the publicity effect with a small amount of sugar.

⑤ I hated the disruption of distribution and sales networks.

"... this is more or less the place"

"but...... not enough data to proceed with inference any further"

"Right. But the fact that this kind of reasoning is possible is important in itself. I'm going to escalate this matter with a letter from you."

"... May I?

"It's time for you to remember to take responsibility for what you say. If you hear from someone upstairs, you're gonna have to take good care of it, right?

"!... Ha!

"And... let your men go outside and ask about sugar and beer. Let him look into his reputation in particular this time. Keep in mind those parts where people want to buy and how much they're willing to pay. Happy or unhappy, the store has idle birds ringing. There will be no shortage of people around."
