I don't know what's happening at the oblique desk right now.

"Mr. Tsuchiya, I need to ask you something about this purchase order."

"How about the usual purchase order of the usual company? Something wrong?

"Yes, the person in charge over there is like" Kondo, "right?

"You're that sweet old man"

"I've taught you a lot, too"

"So, what happened to that Kondo-san?

"Was it a false conversion?" Person in charge: Co-O Dome. "

"Whoa?"

"'Is there any intention,' I asked on the phone."

"How to ask."

"I was hung up when they said 'excuse me, I'll call you back' in an instant answer. I haven't heard from you since, but what do I do when this happens?"

"Hello, I'm a dirt house and I always take care of you. Master Kondo... eh, stomach ache? Then the message said, 'I understand that it means an accident'. Yes, because that conveys it. I was hoping you could tell me as soon as possible. Yes, yes, excuse me."

"Mr. Tsuchiya, why are you calling all of a sudden?

Murasaki?

"Yes."

"Have you ever thought about how scared an old lady is of sending something to a girl you're dealing with in these times of harsh sexual harassment?

"I see. I didn't have that idea."

Are these two white or black......

My name is Takashi Oyama. I've worked for this trading company for fifteen years. The position is Assistant Manager.

I have a wife who has been married for nine years and an eight and five year old child. It is my recent hobby to look at the catalog to see how many colors my younger child's landscape.

"Oyama, what do you think about internal romance?

"Yes? Internal love?

It was about a week ago that I was summoned to a separate room by my boss, Chief Hayagawa (Hagepchi), and given a top-secret mission.

"I think you should give me a break."

"Ha."

"If the room is different, it's still good. Try to stick around in the same department and get a couple fights or something. The air sucks and it's good for work."

"Well, maybe so"

"Based on that, how about 'those two' from you? White or Black"

"I see, 'those two'?"

When it comes to 'those two' in our department, we only have one set of thoughts.

It's Tsuchiya sitting at the desk across from me and Murasaki, the newcomer sitting next to him, across the slope.

Whether the two of you are dating or not, there are occasional rumors in the hot water room.

"What do you think? We seem to be close, and I think that's a good thing in itself, until we're in a relationship."

"There, will you follow me in black and white?

"Am I?

"There's no one but you."

He didn't have the idea of doing it himself.

Well, I don't know if I can call it a work order, but what about the truth?

That's up to me too, so I decided to explore it for now.

"Speaking of which, Tsuchiya, I'd like to talk to you for a second, okay?

"Mm, what is it?

Lunch break, speaking to Tsuchiya, who is double-stacked with convenience store lunches.

Mr. Murasaki, next door, has a seat on some business and is absent.

"My nephew is a college student, and he recently had his first girlfriend."

"Congratulations, Sora"

"So it looks like she's about to have her birthday. Talk to me about what to make a present of."

"Hmm."

"Well, I used to have an alias with Takayuki the woman who made me cry. I guess I talked to her, but I don't know what young people like these days. Has Tsuchiya recently given a gift to a girl?

It would be helpful if you could tell me. "

"I just recently had a chance to present it to you."

It took.

If you have someone you're socializing with, the heterosexual giving a temperamental gift would be about that person or family member.

As long as I can hear what I've given you, I just need to make sure that the person who got it is Mr. Murasaki.

By the way, I don't have a nephew like that. I'm an only child.

"What did you give him?

"You brought back memorable stuffed animals that the guy used to lose in his best friend's betrayal, and you fixed them to look old and gave them to him."

"Aren't you too cool?

Heavy.

It's a lot heavier than I thought.

Oh, I was doing such a cool thing, this young man.

"Well, it's not something I did alone. But I think we're getting closer to him because of you."

"Heh heh."

"Oh, is that too pinpoint for an answer?

"Uh, no, it's okay. I'll ask her if she's lost anything because of her best friend's betrayal."

"Do you think there is?"

I don't think so. I don't mind because I'm talking about an unreal teenager.

"Thanks, that was helpful."

"No. But would you rather ask a woman that?

"Right. I'm going to talk to Mr. Murasaki later."

Some things were unexpected, but this is a huge gain.

There is no coincidence first when things are just things. It doesn't look like it's in my body from the mouth.

Next, we need to talk to Mr. Murasaki.

"Recently received, is it?

"Yes, yes, in consultation with my nephew."

In the afternoon, one paragraph of work goes off and Toya asks Murasaki in anticipation of the timing of his removal from his seat.

Now it would be black if you returned it as a "plush toy of memories".

"Sorry, I never got much expensive stuff"

"The price isn't everything. Something of value to me."

"Oh, if that's what it is"

"... Could it be from Tsuchiya?

"That, did you hear anything from Senior Tsuchiya?

Coming.

Here he comes.

I thought it might be a little forceful, but you gave me a good answer. Is this black?

"Oh yeah, lightly. Fine, you know what? Happy?"

"Yes, I bit off my emotions about twenty minutes ago"

"Not so fast?

Inspiring reunion, over in twenty minutes.

She says she's dry these days, but isn't it too dry?

"Really?

"I think so...... So, how are you doing now?

I'm concerned about the aftermath of the reunion, which ended in twenty minutes.

"Now? It's all gone."

"Not fast!?

"It's not like I'm going to keep it that important..."

"Can I keep it?

"No, it would be dirty if you grew mold or something"

That sounds like an old stuffed animal.

Tsuchiya, you look so cute and eggy. Do you mind? This is her.

"Is that okay? Aren't they memorabilia about your best friend's betrayal?

"Nothing. Because I was just mistaken.... Is that it? How does Mr. Tsuchiya know that?

"Yeah, 'cause he said he fixed the stuffed animal and gave it away."

Is that it?

It's like I'm not engaging something.

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

I was talking about a limited edition melon bread.

I'm sorry I said eggs or something.

Operation Gift failed.

I've tried a lot since, but I haven't grasped the evidence to determine the relationship between the two. This means no harvest for ten days.

I'm also gradually getting better and better at not caring about the section chief's orders and it's starting to feel like I'm exploring it willingly.

"But you've run out of measures... I feel limited in my approach from here."

The public is entering the basin season, and our company has more employees on summer vacation.

In the office, which was hit by the disaster of delays in the arrival of the repairer after the cooling broke, the two in question were still snobbing their seats in line for work today.

"Tsuchiya Senior"

Murasaki, with a sweat on his forehead, is talking to Tsuchiya, as usual.

Has Kondo gone rubber again?

"Go out with me"

What, a confession?

…………

Confession!?

"Right......! I had lost sight of that possibility."

Even if they look friendly, the two have met for three months or so. If you're socializing, you're pretty quick.

Exactly while I was putting in my exploration, they must have been nurturing each other's thoughts. And now, that's what we're trying to achieve.

"What, shopping? Rice?"

"It's a board game"

It was a board game.

Right, you don't have an office to confess, do you? But how about the dust doesn't move, Tsuchiya?

"Do you want to start tonight?

My parents were supposed to be here today.

If it weren't for your parents it would have been a stay course!?

You were going that far!

"Let's timer him."

There's moderation there.

What is it? Which one of you is it?

"... Um, is Mr. Osama coming too? Board Games Party"

"What, me?

"You've been looking at this one the whole time, so I thought you liked it..."

"Yes, no, I'm sorry. I was just staring at you in the heat. Never mind."

"? Really? Excuse me."

No more, these two.

"... So, Oyama? Results?"

Two weeks after the start of the investigation.

Having been called to the same separate room as before, I had been asked to report to Chief Hayagawa (Hageppchi).

"Section Chief"

"Yeah."

"Why aren't those two dating?

"What?"

Just hang out with me now.

To the clouds flowing out the window, I hoped so.
