Isekai Sagishi no Consulting

237: Meeting after sunset.

"Kalifuwa, good!

"Really, delicious"

"It's gonna change in such a hassle."

And it seems generally well received.

... So, you're not.

"It's not a fried octopus tasting party."

"You know... ahhh... talk, go on... ahhh... okay"

"Ha-ha-ha... yeah, I... ha-ha-ha... I'm asking you right"

"Ahhh string!"

Don't look delicious, paula on the neferry on the norm. I haven't even been able to say "me" properly about Paula.

"Please eat a lot"

"You're making too much too, Ginette!?

Teaching or nothing in the first place, fried octopus was easy for Ginette, who could make it his own in no time.

Since then, instantly more and more fried octopus grills have been produced in mass.

"Ha-ha-ha... Mm-hmm. It's delicious"

Glad you had Bertina.

I wouldn't have thought of that if I had come to the Yangtze Pavilion. The ingredients aren't even free.

Though, you can't say "don't make" to Ginette or "don't eat" to Bertina, because that's reckless.

That's like saying "fly" to a frog.

I don't have time to waste making demands that I can't even do.

"Sorry I'm late. Let it wait... Well, it doesn't look like it."

Estella, who has rushed into the Yang Deception Pavilion, leaks a bitter laugh when she looks inside the dining room.

Looks like we got a complete picture of the situation at a glance.

"Were you able to write a letter?

"Yeah. I'm on my way to deliver it right now."

"At this hour?

"Ricardo and his uncle are keeping the gatekeeper up properly. I can get enough letters. I'm sure you'll read it tomorrow."

"No, not that way. You and this paycheck, there's only a woman, right? Are you in danger?

I meant to say the utmost damn thing, but Estella exposing herself to a decent face.

Oh, my God.

Although security has improved in District 42, other districts are far away, and I'm guessing Gorotsuki is still wandering around.

"Yashiro even cares about what we do."

"Well, that's because you know a lot of people."

Something's going on at Estella's house.

"Thank you. I'll be honest with you."

"No, not gratitude or anything..."

"But we all get Natalie's knife trick."

"What, that inexplicable militant group"

"Besides, I let them go in pairs, so yes, it's not dangerous.... Well, it's not absolutely safe, so I'm sorry."

"More than that, because now it's a crisis in the 42nd arrondissement," Estella grinned caring.

"Hehe...... I'll tell everyone later." Yashiro was worried about me. "

"Will you stop or tailor people like good people? Because I'm going to get annoyed later."

"'Tailoring'...... hey"

"... nigga nigga. Take care of this."

"You did....... hehe"

Not at all.

Isn't this guy short of a sense of crisis?

You still think you're not gonna die?

No, I'm not dying.

Worst of all, I want you to have a sense that it's important enough that that's possible.

"Anyway, isn't it bright? Change the lighting... Oh, Wendy."

"... excuse me, lord"

Wendy, who is getting smaller in the corner of the room, lowers her body even further and lowers her head.

Wow, I'm a lord's resident jerk.

"Poor thing."

"Oh, that's not what I'm going to do!? Because it's not, Wendy!

"Yes... I know... it's my fault I'm glowing"

"Not bad, not bad! Because Wendy's lights are sweet lights!

"Right. Wendy, I need you to come in the middle a little longer. It's dark around here."

"Don't use it for lighting!? You treat me worse!

Something's already glowing so hard about this, Wendy.

Theron, who is similarly smaller in body next to it. You're in Wendy's shadow and you don't have a presence.

"Thank you for waiting."

We're back now.

Imelda and Delia are all coming in.

"I brought Mr. Becco."

"Sorry to keep you waiting"

Imelda came to the Yangdu Pavilion once and said, "I'm going to get Mr. Becco!" and left with Delia as his escort.

"You didn't have to bring me to Becco."

"That's not going to happen! Mr. Becco is a needy."

"Mr. Imelda... trust me so much about the awkward... I am so grateful!

"Come on, Mr. Becco. This is fried octopus!

"Are you telling me to make a food sample now!? Did you call for that!?

"I left the district to Mr. Yashiro. Instead, Mr. Becco will do nothing extra."

"Sounds terrible!?

Yes, it was.

Ginette and Bertina weren't the only ones who liked the new dishes...... so was Imelda.

Not to eat, but as a collector of food samples.

Well, it's like reporting the status quo and sorting out the situation this time, so I don't have a problem with anyone or not.

"Anyway, do we have all the members?"

Even so, I'm not particularly sure who to tell - I haven't decided.

I'm there and I have all the faces that I want you to tell me the situation.

"Right. First, explain what happened today."

"Right. You want me to do it?

"Oh, I'll take care of it."

"Then..."

Staring at Estella with a serious look, even though each is a takoyaki one-handed.

Get up and explain what happened to Estella pale today.

Reactions in "Feast" and promises to Donnis.

And tell me about the last Geraldsey and the 'BU' guys who showed up.

"That's why I can't bring any more 'BU' lords to my side... that's what's happening right now."

Ginette offers iced tea to Estella after a long story.

"Thank you," said Estella, who receives and lowers her hips.

Often, no one says anything.

I guess I'm organizing the facts I just heard, in each person, in my heart.

"Hey, yeah?

In a quieter dining room, Regina was the first to open her mouth.

He holds his glasses with his opposite hand with one small hand up.

"What?

"It's so dazzling to see you at this angle, lighting (Wendy Han) It's sloppy. Yeah?

"Shh, excuse me! You're going to the end!

"What can you say that doesn't matter?"

Wendy tried to move to the rear seat, but made him stay on the spot saying it was just a joke.

"Speaking of which... It's like Natalia said there's a way to use the flaming light to send a message to distant humans..."

"What!? No way, are you going to use my light to send someone a message, lord!?

"Oh, no... if you can't send a letter, I wonder if there's a way to do that. Haha, it's a joke, a joke"

Sure, there's a way to convey the flaming light in accordance with the law, but he's like a Morse signal or a flag signal.

However, to use it, the other person must know how to decipher it.

Sending a Morse signal to someone who doesn't know anything doesn't make sense.

"... even if I can't send a letter, if Delia screams out loud... I can hear you"

"Yeah. If they ask, they'll hear you all the way."

"Hmm? Shall we? Good for you."

"Did you hear that? Because you don't have to."

Magda's proposal is rejected because none of it has any secrecy.

"It's hard not to be able to work together..."

"Sure, if you can't have a meeting, you're likely to eat differently at times... that's deadly"

Norma tunes in to Estella.

To work with someone to turn something upside down, you need to stay in touch, step by step, and carry things exactly as the scenario suggests in production.

Get ready carefully, all at once when you do it. That will be essential to break the adhesive state.

"What about the lord you were there to see today? Didn't you say something when you broke up?

Estella answers Neferry's question in the end.

"I couldn't tell you anything. It's just that 'I have a duty to protect the people of my district'"

"Hey, Estella. Is that a declaration to abandon the 42nd arrondissement?

"No, Paula." I can't give priority to District 42. "

"We're not together. What, my lord, you smell like an asshole!

Angry Paula.

Estella can forgive, but Paula's enemies are unlikely to fit in for the time being.

"Think the other way around."

When did you make me put it in, Imelda says, tilting the cup of tea gracefully.

"If Estella says she will sacrifice the wasps and their people to protect other districts..."

"... Ugh, that's..."

"Ladies and gentlemen, 'This choosy milk!' You think?

"We all don't think so!? Hey, guys!?

Estella was the only one who denied it in all its power.

The rest of us...

"'I thought in my heart that depending on the circumstances...'"

"What are you talking about, Yashiro!? Will you not speak for everyone's feelings?

Even if I don't tell you, everyone thinks so.

"But I'm sure Mr. Tracy will move to make it convenient for us!

Loretta stands up and presents a convenient interpretation here.

Grab a fist and theorize.

"Mr. Tracy and Mr. Nene are buddies who worked together at the Yang Deception Pavilion! Even in the short time of two days, the bond we worked with doesn't disappear!

"No, I know what you want to think..."

"Besides, Mr. Tracy was snooping at Mr. Estella! If Estella says' Help Me, My Honey 'or something, she'll definitely cooperate!

"I won't tell you, that!?

Loretta's bringing 'It's Absolutely All Right' has a weak basis...

Imelda argues against such weak grounds.

"If you join District 42 in front of other lords, without any particular significance, District 27, led by Tracy McCurry, will be followed by 'BU'."

"Then you can work at the Yangdu Pavilion again!

"What do you do with the inhabitants?

"Ah...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Irresponsible!?

This guy is so irresponsible to his plan!

"Indeed, in" Mr. Estella, Operation Woofn, "we cannot save even the inhabitants..."

"That's a malicious name, Loretta..."

"... Estella lacks milk..."

"You're wrong to feel malicious, Magda!?

Ignoring Angry Estella, Magda points to Ginette.

"... you can count on the manager"

"Huh? Me, is it?

"... if the store manager says... 'If you don't obey, you'll have a foot.'"

"I won't tell you!?

"... or take over if you give all the inhabitants a foothold"

"I won't, no foot stumps, no takeover!?

Thank you, there seems to be a recurring argument about what we can do to keep the person we put on our side from disobeying once.

That's not gonna work. You want me to calm you down once?

"Just in case, Tracy and Donnis do what we think they're doing, we're not gonna win a majority after all."

To my point, the neighborhood calms down like it hit water.

There is no point in arguing here and now about how to draw Tracy in.

More frightening than that is the current situation where Tracy doesn't know how to move.

"Obviously, Tracy - despite the unfavourable conditions in District 27, he spoils and accepts that disadvantage for Estella... what a more troubling situation"

"When I shake an obviously unfavourable condition, I honestly want you to say no - because the calculations go crazy. That's why."

"Oh, yeah"

Sometimes it's more troublesome to be badly entrusted.

Sometimes it's ruined when you squeak out when you want it to be grown up.

Or more like that.

"So I want Tracy and Donnis to make an honest decision about whether it is or not in 'their position'. It's easier to direct."

"Brother, I am willing to manipulate the lords of other districts from behind..."

"... Shadow Ruler"

"Because it's not such a mess!

It's a pain in the ass who controls the other districts.

I'm just going to show you a little bit of guidance so it's in our favor.

For example…

"Loretta, let's do one of my bites or one of these unwieldy, beautiful takoyaki. Which one do you want?

"No, you shouldn't have!

"Bye, Ahem."

"Murray!? It feeds me!? Okay, then... ahhh."

Place the octopus in the mouth of the open Loretta.

Close your mouth and chew...... Loretta got more and more soon after.

"From!? It's hard!

"Oh, it's in the beautiful one's octopus, because I still put the calamari in it."

"What are you doing!?

In this way, if it's easy to handle, you can move it the way you want.

"KEHOO, KEHOO... regrettably, this razor-filled thing is subtly delicious... I think I could just get a little habit of it and maybe eat another one..."

It's not a good idea to play with food.

I made it delicious. It's just more painful than depression.

"So, if this was Ginette, you might say, 'If you're pretty, Mr. Yashiro's on your way' or something, right?

If I do, I'll be the one eating the razor.

I'm scared there.

"I mean, it's best to have Tracy and Donnis do what they think they do."

"I see… I understand very well, but I don't think I needed to bother feeding you with razors"

"... but earlier Loretta was funny"

"It's not 'but', Magda!? That's how I said, 'I'm fine!' Cause it won't be like that!?

A doughnut is quickly brought in for Loretta, who complains it's hard.

The Neferries also make their eyes shine.

Well, you eat it right over there.

"Either way, you want to get in touch somehow."

"Can't you go see him? No?

"'BU' is structurally sensitive to people coming and going. I don't think you can dive in."

"Well, why don't Norma go? Unlike you, you don't know your face.

"Nice, Delia! That's right! Norma, Neferry, I wish I could go!

Paula squeaks her hand and shakes her tail.

"I can't always be of service at times like this. I'll do anything."

"Well, you're not bluffing, either."

"You'll be worried about Paula and Norma, so I'll follow you."

"What do you mean, Neferry?"

Message the unbroken messenger…?

Not a very good operation. Estella told me why.

"When people from the outer periphery meet their lords, they stand out, and they just 'act suspiciously' like that, and now they're bothering Mr. Tracy and the others."

"Is that what it is?

"That's what it is, unfortunately"

"Nobility is more shady and sticky than Mr. Neferry thinks."

The words of Imelda, himself a nobleman, silenced the Neferies with no more persuasion.

"So come on, are you blocking it in all directions?

A doughnut and Delia says in a grumpy way.

I guess I hate the way it feels like being tangled up, Delia.

But this way works well, nasty enough.

"Well, I guess I'll have to leave my luck to heaven."

What a word, while Regina looks at me.

That's a very provocative gaze, while still saying, "So? What kind of solution are you hiding?" He had the kind of eyes that would ask.

I can't help it. Let me tell you something.

"In the meantime, I'll see if I can send Tracy a letter."

With that said, Estella wrinkles between her eyebrows easily understandably.

"If you let it out, it'll arrive, but at the stage of being enlightened about what you put out, Mr. Tracy could be removed from the Lords' meeting, right?

"So don't let them find out."

"How? I'm sure you'll find out where you went through.

I guess the 'BU' folks are blinding themselves to letters from the outside and people coming and going.

No matter where you let it go, you'll be suspicious at the time of entering 'BU'. Worst of all, it could be called an interrogation and you could be seen inside. Position it as a state of emergency, and that's also possible if you oblige the interrogation in the Lords' name.

"As long as we get into the 'BU', we can avoid the interrogation. They'll be blind to going in and out, but they'll be indifferent to moving in and out of the BU."

"So it's hard to get into that 'BU'..."

"There will be, but there's a way out that won't get caught up in the interrogation"

As I say, I point in the direction of Newtown.

It was Norma who felt it as soon as possible, slapping Loretta on the shoulder that was by her side.

Loretta slapped me on the shoulder and said, "Ah!" Raise your voice.

Even Estella has used it there before, but she has completely forgotten its existence.

"Get out of the way. If you use number one, the eyes of the surveillance can slip through, right?

"Ah! Right!

Finally remembering its existence, Estella strikes her hand.

That one can be delivered directly to Marul's Hall.

Moreover, at Marul's direction, it is built in a position that will not be found from the outside unless it enters the premises.

Suppose I told you to cheat a bit on where to build in anticipation of something like this, that Obasan, that's a big deal.

"Anyway, let's ask Marul to help us."

"Right. Tracey and Marul said they were more cordial than before... and in this situation, it's not unnatural for Tracey to go to Marul, Mr. Arryn's sister, to talk to her."

"Even if it's hard to call, I think I can do enough to get a letter out of Marul. He thinks Marul is a powerless decorative nobleman driven to seclusion."

Well, I'm going to write to you once to check the area.

"I'd rather have information about the other districts of 'BU' than that"

"For example?"

"Location and main industry. Then the power relationship with the neighborhood and the economic power. And reliance on" BU, "I guess."

"By dependency, can I mean 'independence'?

"Right. When" BU "leans, I want to know which districts are in trouble and which will survive."

"Well, if that means location, I have the map."

And Theron, who had so far been so weak, stood up and spread the map of All Bloom on the table before us.

Everyone peeks in.

...... Wendy. Wow, dazzling. Can you just step away for a second?

On the map, District 42 is located in the lower right corner.

Next to the left there is the thirtieth arrondissement, but between the thirtieth arrondissement there is a high cut cliff.

The same is true with District XXIX, which is on the upper and northerly side of District 42.

"Again, 'BU' is really narrow territory."

"Right. I guess the only way to survive this narrowness was to create a community and take a toll tax."

Outer Peripheral District from District 30 to District 42. 'BU', which is contiguous so as to enclose its interior.

It seems that the outer periphery has a wide territory so that when the Warcraft enters beyond the outer wall, it can be exorcised before reaching the center.

I mean, the outer periphery is like a buffer zone that doesn't matter how much damage you suffer.

In that sense, 'BU' acts like a place of detention.

You're a warcraft, you're a gorotzki, you're a poor people... with frogs.

I guess it's the role of the 'BU' to sort out those, 'beings that nobles don't want into their territory'.

The map tells that as it should.

And because of its pressed role, 'BU' is stopping industry from growing.

These troubles are all happening because of the nobles in the middle.

"Isn't the Thirtieth District's city gate the biggest?

"Right. More than 60% of people coming from other countries use the city gates in District 30."

The City Gate of the Thirtieth District is the first gateway I've crept.

I'm sure you had a great queue back then.

"So, less than 40% use the city gates of District 35."

"I went by when we came to this city, and I did that gate over there."

Regina's hometown, Baoclea, seems to be a place to come by boat.

Speaking of which, you were on your way to the 35th arrondissement to get the firepowder, this guy.

"... Magda's mom and dad parents left, too, over here"

"... well"

Magda, pointing to the upper left corner of the map, Zone 42 and the thirty-five existing on the diagonal.

He looked only a little lonely, so I'll fluff the base of his ear without saying anything.

".................. Hmm"

I wouldn't want you to dig into that story right now... but yeah, hopefully you'll find it someday.

"You know, I don't really know."

Neferry finishes eating donuts and peeks into the map.

"There's a gate around here, too, right? They don't use it there?

A symbol indicating the street gate is written on the outer peripheral area.

The city gate of the 42nd arrondissement is not noted. Must be an old map.

"There's a small port in the 37th arrondissement."

In the upper-right corner of the map, Delia says, pointing to District 37, which is in a position of line symmetry with District 35.

Speaking of which, you said there were two ports or something.

Although the 35th arrondissement seems to be a bigger and busier harbor.

"There's a city gate in the 38th arrondissement."

The mark of the city gate is also written at the end where Paula points to the map.

"The Thirty-eighth District City Gate is a gateway used occasionally by wooden guilds. There are trees that live only close to the sea."

"... I also use hunting guilds occasionally"

Neither is used very often.

Sure, we talked about bringing wood in from city gates outside of the 40th arrondissement would be expensive because of the wooden guild, and I guess I'd only use it when I really needed it.

And to the left of the map opposite that there is a 42nd arrondissement - the city gate also exists on the west side.

"It's in the 33rd arrondissement."

"You're the gateway to the mine. There's a big mine three days away by carriage."

That's my first ear.

When I turned my gaze to Estella, I got an explanation saying, "All Bloom, you can't take the ore." Well, well.

Again, I realize there's still something I don't know.

Geographically, I still don't remember exactly.

It is not exactly divided by square-eyed mass eyes like square-eyed paper, so there are some differences......

If you can metaphor Allbloom in squares, in order from the left on the upper periphery, districts 35, 36 and 37.

On the right side, in order from the top, districts 38, 39, 40 and 41.

Bottom line from right to right, 42nd arrondissement, - there's a cliff - 30th arrondissement, 31st arrondissement.

On the left side, in order from the bottom, districts 32, 33 and 34.

placement.

Both neighborhoods of the thirty-fifth arrondissement, the thirty-fourth and thirty-sixth arrondissements. And in the thirty-eighth district, next to the thirty-seventh district, where there is a small port, the processing of seafood is the main industry. The thirty-sixth arrondissement, adjacent to both, is Mecca, a seafood processed product.

Zones XXIV and adjacent districts XXXII and XXXI are dominated by soybean processed products.

District 33 is processing ore and dependence on other districts seems low.

There were no industries in the thirty-ninth to forty-second precincts held back by the cliffs that said this, had been obsolete for many years and had managed to hold up, benefiting from the wooden guilds of the fortieth precinct and the hunting guilds of the forty-first.

You've thought about it a lot and you've been so far back, District 42.

The location sucks, isn't it?

And the number one winner in the outer periphery, the thirtieth district.

Needless to say, it's a transit tax giant. Well, it's a district, not a country.

And if you can metaphor "BU" into squares as well...

At the upper left corner, which spans the left and upper sides, there is District 25, next to the right there is District 26, and at the corner connecting the upper and right sides there is District 27. The district at the corner is bent to the letter 'Ku'.

On the right side, there is District 28 under District 27, and District 29 at the corner that connects the right with the bottom.

At the bottom is District 23 next to the left of District 29, and District 24 on the left. On top of that, it's District 25, and now we're going around.

The districts of "BU" are elongated. And many districts border multiple districts.

It is the twenty-third and twenty-ninth districts that benefit Moro from the thirty districts with the largest city gates.

It is the twenty-fifth district that is benefiting from the sea.

It will mean that the outer peripheral districts from 42 to 38, and almost all residents of the districts under the cliff will utilize it when they go to the center.

The toll tax is strong around it, and bean-wise, it seems that the twenty-four districts of soybeans are dantoz, and the twenty-eight districts of soybeans and twenty-six districts of cocoa follow with considerable differences.

Still, there is no area where we can be very crop and self-reliant due to lack of agricultural land.

The harm of widening the outer periphery in case you want to minimize the neighborhood to be destroyed... Ha Also, did you want to take the territory of the central district a little bigger?

In any case, the placement and area of the 'BU' is not something that can be said to be very livable.

"It's been conceived to make the center more habitable."

"Well... I guess so"

I'm not thinking about the outer periphery or "BU".

It's all about making a city for the royalty who live in the center.

So, fine things make a fuss.

Even so, the royalty and the noblemen are familiar with "clean up the downward issues".

"Come there, the rise of District 42, which should have been the poorest..."

"There's no point in them hurrying either - that might be too much to defend... yeah, you must have hurried"

If the Forty-Two Zone forces and the Outer Peripheral Zone forces it to be pulled on, the 'BU' will be able to exert considerable pressure from within and outside.

"When the power balance breaks down, there's going to be a hell of a difference between profitable and loss-making districts. That's what makes the community so broke."

"Well, if you kept it hard with such a distorted balance, you would."

Sooner or later.

Can I just say that it is unhappy that District 42 was named in that do-ball... No, can you pull it down with those words?

If such a little thing is going to break your balance, you should break it.

It's just that the way it collapses is the problem...

"What happens if I say," Let's make our way with the Thirty Wards "or something?

"The BU will be waging an all-out war."

With that said, Estella fingers the 'BU' on the map - the twenty-third and twenty-ninth districts in it.

"This neighborhood is moist with toll taxes from District 30. And 'BU' is a community that lives forever by distributing its toll. Acts that embezzle its interests will always be crushed."

In order for a person from the outer periphery to obtain a product from the outer periphery, it will be either 'bring the product to the outer periphery via the twenty-third and twenty-ninth districts' or 'a person from the outer periphery will go and buy it via the twenty-seventh district'.

In both cases, 'BU' can get a transit tax.

If we make a way out of there, it would be a dead end issue rather than a sales jam.

"But you don't have to do anything to crush me, do you?

"... are you going to war?

In noisy words, the air in the dining room strains.

No, because I don't.

So don't look like "I'll do it if you want," Delia, Norma, Magda.

... Though, you look a little tingly, Becco. Funny face.

"Rough things are not my intention. But I think it's an effective hand to shake."

"Don't let the sleeping lion get bitten too much."

Take such advice.

I know.

I know, but... I can't say "okay".

"Now, you can't boil it any more."

"Right. I'm in a hurry. I can't think together."

That seems to be the same except for me and Estella, and nobody said anything.

"Let's talk to Lucia again."

"Yeah. And I need to get Mr. Marul's opinion, too."

Eventually, we were to discuss it again tomorrow.

"Even with us, you can't help us," the Neferries said, declining to participate in the next discussion.

"Instead, say anything you can to help," he said, leaving me with a reliable word.

And he said, "I'm glad you talked a lot," too.

Ever since I dropped them off,

"Myself. Don't be taken care of."

Regina left with those words.

Maybe he was a little concerned, too. It came out in a rare and crowded place. Because I was carrying fireworks, I guess.

For now, it was open, and only employees remained in the Yangdu Pavilion.

Leave Magda to Loretta that drowsiness has reached its peak, and I'll stay alone in the dining room.

... Well, what do I do from it.

"Difficult situation, what is it"

Warm tea is placed in front of you.

Even as Ginette frowned, she was smiling at me to calm me down.

This guy must have been stuffed in the morning.

In the meantime, I'll get you some worries and tea.

"Well, that's tough when it comes to tough. It's like being sealed off by force."

"Are you all right?

"I don't know... I'll talk to Estella again tomorrow. When Natalia gets back, she'll know what's going on in Lucia."

I don't know if you'll be all right, then.

Even so, I just have to be okay.

"No, not really."

Ginette bends forward as she puts the basin she had on the table, hands on her leech and peeks into my face.

Big eyes stare at me.

"Mr. Yashiro."

He bites his lips softly and looks serious.

Anxiety seeps through.

... Not at all.

"You're gonna be okay."

Speaking of which, Ginette had a different carriage home.

I'll tell you what I know.

"I'm not doing anything unscrupulous anymore."

"... Yes"

Like everyone else did in the carriage, this time I pick Ginette's cheeks.

Don't worry about me.

When I told Ginette I was worried, Ginette picked my cheek to imitate me.

"Then don't make me worry too much"

Instead, they twist their cheeks.

... Yep. Rather give it back.

Rather than............... what is this?

"Peanut butter on soy sauce, coffee or cocoa"

"To?"

"It's better to have a friendly relationship with 'BU' than to make money."

Think for a little while, and, happily, loosen your cheeks.

"Right. I'm sure you'll make a lot of money."

"Then we'll make it work."

"Yes, I'm here for you, too."

Then we munched each other for a while and then went back to the room.

My cheeks tingled slightly... well, I didn't feel bad.
