The Coffee Shop in a Different World Station

39 Gifts of Interest with Reunited Old Friends (3/3 pt)

Then, a few days later, in front of the station square at Harpertown Station, there was an appearance of Elias waiting for the arrival of the "customer”.

Looking at the pocket watch tied to the waist as a flicker and looking at the street leading to the square, it also looks restless somewhere.

After a while, a single carriage arrived at the square.

Elias quickly rushes over and bows his head toward the "customer” who stepped out of the carriage.

"Thank you for your time. Private rooms are reserved at this' swordfish 'and we will show you. Now, this way please."

"Uhm."

“Customer" snorted softly at the eagle fried the white beard stored in his mouth.

Elias heads upstairs to the coffee shop "Swallow" while guiding the “Customer”.

The private rooms requested and pre-booked by Takumi were set up in a calm atmosphere.

"Well, there's something we need to talk about today."

Elias nodded cocklessly at the words of the "customer” who sat on his back to the dining chair.

"Yes. I would love to see something and I have invited you here. However, before that...... I apologize for the inconvenience I caused you the other day. As an apology for that, I have one hobby for you today. I hope you enjoy yourself."

"Hmm. That sounds like something interesting. Ok. So can you do me a favor quickly?

"Yes, I did. Now if you'll excuse me for a moment."

Elias gratefully goes out the door and rings the bell with Chillilene once.

It's a pre-determined, ready signal.

Check the sound of the bell to be returned from downstairs and return to the room, Elias.

So much so that the door was knocked with a concon.

"Excuse me. We have brought your order."

When Elias calls out, please, Takumi and Luna enter the room.

Luna seems a little nervous about Takumi smiling as usual.

Luna installs the stand she has brought while Takumi prepares her tea.

The slightly taller metal stand features a three-stage wooden tray, each served with sandwiches, cookie treats, and more.

When the table was set up, Takumi began to greet the two of them again.

"Today, drinks and snacks are served in mini-party format, if desired by Elias. Please enjoy your stay."

Luna bows in a hurry to see how Takumi lowers her head gently.

To that adorable trick, Elias felt his heart warm with dust.

After dropping off the two of them from the room, Elias suggests tea to the "customer”.

"It's only a few, but we have prepared them with all our heart. Enjoy."

"Thanks, but you're going to be wondering which one to start with."

"As a matter of fact, so am I."

A laugh spilled out of the mouth of the "customer” at Elias' words.

Where the venue has eased, the two reach out to each one of them to the stand.

The first "customer” reached out was a roll sandwich served on the bottom step of the stand.

"Well, this is beautiful. It's a rare piece of colored tortilla."

"We hear that tomatoes are cooked in oranges and episnarky (spinach) in greens."

Elias tells the customer what Takumi told him beforehand, chewing on his words.

The orange dough is wrapped with raw ham, lettuce and thinly sliced peppino.

On the other hand, the green colored dough was wrapped with lightly roasted eggs and theses (cheese), and chopped sanaolia (carrots).

The two types of roll sandwiches are cut into bites with a knife and arranged to be patterned in their beautiful cross section.

The appearance was even something that felt as if you were looking at beautiful patchwork.

"Yeah, these cakes are delicious, too. I was a little surprised because of the intense color of the eyes, but the moist, slightly bitter taste goes well with this tae."

What Elias was reaching for was a dark corned brown cupcake that was in the middle steps.

To borrow Takumi's word, it sounds like baked confectionery called “Gato Chocolat”.

I was also taught how to make it because it is a corner, but I was surprised by the simplicity of my thoughts.

Chop the chocolate and then dissolve in a hot fry, where you mix the sugar, eggs, and the arrow (comte) powder together.

Just put that dough in a thin cup and cook it carefully in an oven stove grill with a little less firewood and a lower temperature.

“That's all” makes me rude, but it's not something that uses particularly complex techniques.

Nevertheless, carefully baked one by one, this confection had a wonderful taste combined with the peculiar bitterness of the cocoa and the sweetness of the sugar.

Gallators (sublettes) and meringue cookies on the top also entertain the tongue with a refreshing sweetness.

Of course, it goes perfectly with Tae.

The two of us continue to bicker for a while, enjoying the tae.

The topic moved on to the stuff that was brewing the tae.

"Speaking of which, these pots and cups are pretty good designs, too. Is it incoming shipments?

"That's right, your eyes are high. This will be white magnetic (bone china) made by Algabumb. It's not famous in this country yet, but I'm wondering if it's worth a glance to have an even beauty."

"I see. According to the brand, it's very important to rate good stuff as good."

"Thank you. By the way, I have another thing for you today, may I serve it to you?

"Well, was it something interesting, too?

Elias nods quietly, smiling at the words "customer”.

And when you remove the thin crate from the luggage at hand, open the upper lid and gently show it to the "customer”.

What was being delivered in the box was a single stained glass plate large enough to hold both hands together.

Floral patterns are vividly depicted by colorful glasses in the wooden frame of the cobbled brown.

Elias opened his mouth as he showed the plate he had placed at hand.

"We have something special for you today. It's a dish."

"Oh, this is great again. Can I show you something?

"Yeah, go ahead."

At the request of the "Customer", Elias removes the stained glass plate from the box.

And when I turned to the side of the “customer," I gently gave it to him.

As Elias prompts, the "customer” nods one and then tries to receive the plate.

But you didn't breathe together, and Elias let go of his hand before the plate touched that hand.

Stained glass falling freely towards the table according to the laws of physics.

And the moment I bumped into the table, the sound of Paris echoed into the room.

"Oh my..."

“Customer" complains when he sees a broken stained glass.

Elias rushes to apologize.

"Also, sorry! Are you hurt?

"Yes, no, I'm fine, but there's something in the corner..."

“Customer” sighed as he looked at the stained glass fragments scattered over the table.

It wasn't shattered because it didn't fall so high, but it would still be difficult to repair.

Staring at what a shame it was, Elias began to carefully pick up the scattered fragments one by one.

And when I re-deliver that shard to the box at hand, I bow my head with a wrinkle between my eyebrows.

"I apologize for taking this form because of my carelessness. If this happens...... should I eat it because it's a waste?

"Hmm? What now?

I thought I heard the wrong customer, but he asks Elias again.

Without responding to it, Elias took one fragment out of the box and smashed it into his teat with his hand so that it was the size of a bite.

"Holy shit! What the hell are you doing?

"Mmm, it's sweet and delicious. Sounds like a good fit for Tae too...... Would you like one, please?

What the hell is this young man doing?

Could it have broken the item twice, and it touched my mind?

While twisting his neck, “Customer" receives a stained glass fragment from Elias.

The fragments received look slightly thick colored glass.

But it weighs less than I thought.

Besides, something seems to be on the surface.

(This is like......, ha, that's what you mean!

A “customer” notices that he is observing a fragment sends a sharp gaze to Kick Elias.

Then, lifting the corner of his mouth, he threw the received color glass into his mouth.

As I roll the fragments in my mouth, I feel a slight acidity in my sweet taste. Perhaps there is a mixture of Fressa (strawberry) or some kind of fruit juice.

The slowly melting fragments became superb “delicious”.

“Customers" who have enjoyed its sweetness for some time.

Eventually after the fragments are gone from the mouth, rinse the mouth with a bite of tape.

And I've spoken to Elias with a bitter laugh.

"I've been hit. This was candy."

"Exactly. It was a“ stained glass sweet "combined with candy and gallator. I'm sorry to surprise you."

With that said, Elias bows his head.

In contrast, the "customer" called out laughing whoop-ass.

"Please raise your face. No, I honestly wondered what was going on when it broke, but it was quite a pleasant surprise, huh? But it looked like a real thing, such as framing around. Can't I show you again what kind of trick this is?

"Of course, take a look"

As such, Elias gives the "customer” a box containing the fragments he collected earlier.

The "customer” who received it pinched the part of the wooden frame that looked framed and looked down.

The cross section of the wood frame fragment has a fragrant tight color, and when touched with a little finger, the hollows and powder fall off.

The part that looked like wood on the surface was thinly painted with something like burnt brown paint.

When I get to my finger and lick it pero, I can feel the same bitter taste as the "Gato Chocolat” I just ate.

"... I see. Was this frame a chocolate patterned thing on the gallator? No, you can see it this close, but it just looks real in the distance. Was this Lord Elias made?

"No, I am a total amateur in both cooking and confectionery making. This was made by Takumi, the master of this store. In that sense, it's definitely" not a single dish at the hands of an artisan. "

"You sure do. But I broke a great“ single dish "because of it, so I might not have gotten a little carried away."

"Instead, this is how I could taste it. After all, isn't it" living ”when you taste confectionery?

Elias chuckles as he contains a fragment of coloured glass in his mouth.

The “customer” who understood the intent also nodded to Eagle Deep.

"Sure, you're right. Eating sweets is the only way to“ live ”a dish. Well, then, it looks like there's still some kind of trick, huh?

In the words of "customer," Elias reached out to the stand where the confectionery and roll sandwiches were on.

Then remove one wooden plate at a time and transfer the one above to another.

In an attempt to soak the surface gently, a tile pattern appeared laid all over the plate.

The intersection of white and blue is a beauty reminiscent of “patchwork” or “stained glass”.

I notice the “customer” thing, and Elias exhales one thing and then starts talking.

"At first I was going to inherit that plate and get it back on track. But it can't be completely undone more than once broken. So I dared to cut the dish fine and lay it down instead of tiles so that it could be used as a“ dish ”again. Wouldn't this mean" dishes come back to life ”?

"Uhm, brilliant. If this is the case, it's definitely“ brought the dishes back to life. "

The “customer” nodded satisfactorily with a white beard.

Elias turns a blind eye to the gesture.

"Well then......!

"Oh, I'm going to make it look good. Rather than being mean."

"No, this is where I studied"

We studied very well before independence - Elias, having gained a valuable experience, bowed his head deeply to the "customer” with all his heart.

―――――

As Elias came out of the 'swordfish' after a big job, Theo, who found himself, called out.

"How'd it go?

"Oh, thanks to you, I managed to satisfy you. But I didn't know it was Guru with our husband..."

"You're a good customer. I can't let you go through this, can I?

"Well. Hey, excuse me."

In the middle of the stand-up, he finds the “customer” coming out of the "swordfish", and Elias takes a small run.

Theo opened his mouth in surprise, chasing the “customer" with his eyes like he was chasing after him.

"Huh... Huh, isn't that the" station manager ”!

"To?"

Elias returns a distracted voice to Theo, who shouted out unexpectedly.

From the side, the "customer”, who had accumulated a fine white beard, called out in what a delicious manner.

"Oh, Lord Theo, it's been a long time. What do you say we do our best to encourage you to work at the station?

"Huh? What do you mean?

I don't see the flow of the story, decent Elias.

Then the door of the 'swordfish' opened three times, and a takumi appeared from inside.

"Good luck. But I didn't know Elias' customer was“ station manager "..."

"No, no, I'm sorry to keep quiet. I don't even know that Lord Elias and Lord Theo are old friends. Nevertheless, Lord Takumi didn't speak up very well either, Luna."

"I told Luna to tell her in advance about the situation and tell her to look strange. He's a smart kid, so you seem to have figured it out. He seemed a little nervous."

"It is. Then we'll have to do something again."

"Yes, something. Thank you very much."

Seeing the two of you speaking casually, the question mark spreads more and more in Elias' head.

Theo, who guesses how it is, speaks to Elias, who remains perplexed.

"Yeah, that's your customer, isn't it? That's our station manager."

"Seriously!? What do you mean," station manager "?

If you ask me, I've never talked to a "customer” about my job.

I just recognized him as a favorite who lives in a fine house.

“Station Manager" speaks to Elias, surprised by the odd edge.

"I'm sorry you surprised me this time. But when I'm going to be alone, I think I'm going to come across a lot of things. It would also be Zara's fault that someone she's ever been with is suddenly deceiving. It's important to trust the customer, but hone your eyes to identify the essence without constant alarm, beyond choosing the business of art dealers.

Besides, by chance, it has been a valuable experience for Lord Theo. I won't repeat myself because I seem to have already been instructed by Lord Takumi, but it's time for me to get used to my work and sweeten my sides. Keep your attention and encouragement. "

To the weighty “station manager” words, Elias bowed his head and Theo responded with a salute.

Neither Elias nor Theo felt alive when they saw the broken plate.

It is noticed that although it ended up fitting round, if you look back often, you were repeating small failures.

Both Elias and Theo were full of breasts for making it a tough and warm experience.

"Now, young people, be more and more refined. Then the way will be paved."

"" Ha, ha!

They were two people whose breath echoed in the station building where the sun plunged in.
