Track 3

Come in…..

Sorry for the intrusion…!

Hey Kafka-san and co! We brought some care packages for your recovery~!

Woof, woof!

Whoa, thank you both. This really helps a lot.

Huh? Is Ten-san not here?

Ten’s currently out at some club event or something.

…Huh, Renga-san? Why are you all the way over in the corner like that…?

‘Cause it’d be bad if I got you guys sick, right!? So I figured I should leave you guys some… Pr-principal space? To stay safe.

You mean personal space. But that concern of yours is correct. I should keep my distance too.

Nahh, it’s fine! Don’t worry ‘bout that! Right, Shumai?

Woof!

Exactly! If anything, please feel free to rely on us as much as you want. We’ll take care of everyone as best as we can!

A'ight, here's the lineup of get-well goodies! Take whatever ya like.

We brought sports and energy drinks, as well as fever cooling sheets¹ and medicine… Food will be brought by the Chief and Netaro-san later!

If you need anything else, please call us anytime!

Woah… With all this, this cold’ll be gone in no time!

You’re right. I’m lucky to have such kind friends. Thanks a lot.

Hehe. | Ehehe.

A'ight, Toi-san! Let’s keep things rolling with this energy!

Yeah!

Sorry to bother you while you’re resting…..

Oya, it’s Nagi. What’s wrong? Did you come to warm me up by any chance?

If you’re okay with embracing this lumpy hot water bottle…is what I would say, but we have Operation Cure HAMA House going on right now. Once that’s taken care of, I’ll happily be your hot water bottle, pillow, or whatever you like.

Operation Cure HAMA House…? Haha, that’s an exciting phrase. If I wasn’t feeling like this, I’d want to join too.

Thanks. I’m sure another operation will come up where I can count on you, Raito-san. So for now, take a good rest.

…So, I’m here to collect the laundry and hand out fresh towels.

If you have anything you want to wash, don’t hesitate to leave it to me. In true laundromat owner fashion, I’ll make sure to return everything back to you as fluffy as humanly possible.

Perfect timing. I was feeling gross from all the sweat.

Since you’re taking my clothes anyway, maybe you could wipe me down too…

Nagi looks busy, Kuguri. If you need to be wiped down, I can help.

…Hah?

I know. How about we wipe each other down? Times like these are when we should help each other–

With you around, even things that could heal won’t work. Do me a favor and stay out of my sight unless I say so.

Gyuu gyuu.

(Oh no… I’m getting squeezed from both sides by these well-trained chests. I can almost see the light. I’m going to ascend before the nursing even starts–)

Please…get along and take care…of yourselves….you two….

Sorry to keep you waiting, Nanaki-kun and Kiroku-kun. We’ve made some rice porridge!

!

Make sure you eat it allll up and boost that human self-healing power in you!

Thank…you…..

(Home-cooked rice porridge by the Chief…! I never thought I’d actually get taken care of like this.)

Here! Za spoon’s here♪

Thank you…for the food.

(Opportunities like this are rare. It might be a bit indecent, but I’m so happy–)

…...Zzz.

Huh, Kiroku…!?

Zzz…..Zzz…..

H-He fell asleep…?

Woahhh– Total success♪

Was Kiroku-kun trying to stay up even though he was tired? I’ll cover him with a blanket.

No, um… I think the rice porridge definitely had something to do with that…..

…..Um, Yowa-san. What’s in this rice porridge…?

Mm–? It got stuff like sleep-promoting GABA and tryptophan.

And a buncha secret ingredients that work wonders repairing your cells while you sleep! I call it ‘The Sleep-Tight Magic Rice Porridge.’♪

Had to sneak it in so Doudou won’t notice and make a fuss.

(What should I do… Something bad’s definitely going to happen if I eat it. But…..But—)

Do you want to try some, Nanaki-kun?

(It’s made…by the Chief……)

Oh, do you not feel like eating right now? Then we can save it–

N-No! I’ll eat it!

(If it’s made by you, then I'll take as many bowls as you can give!)

…So if anything comes up, please call for us anytime. We’ll make sure to take good care of everyone!

Of everyone!²

Carrying all those supplies must be tough. You two really are my reliable, kind little brothers. Right, Liguang?

It seems we’ve imposed this on you even though you aren’t sick. You have my thanks.

You’re very welcome ♪

Although… It’s a shame, Akuta. I was really looking forward to today’s movie night.

…Ah, yeah! Thanks, Yukikaze-san. Once everyone’s better, we’ll definitely set it up again!

So for now, focus on beating that cold out completely, ‘kay?

Of course. When that time comes, I’ll prepare plenty of movie-fitting snacks.

...If memory serves, the theme was spirits, wasn’t it?

Yep! A story where spirits from all over the country gather and go absolutely wild in a big battle!

You too, Liguang. If you have any requests, let me know.

…..I never said I was joining. Well, I’ll give it some thought.

Alrighty! Everything’s going smooth as butter! We’ve cleared the second floor!

Yeah… You’re right…..

Toi-san?

(...Maybe I’m a little worn out. My fingertips feel kind of tingly.)

Y-YOU OKAY? Are you starting to feel sick too…!?

No, I’m fine! I think I just got a little tired from carrying so many heavy things around.

Then let’s take a quick breather ‘round here—

Next up’s the 3rd floor, huh. Toi-san’s room is… Oh, riiight— Kotaro and you are on the operation team, so that just leaves Boss³.

…Ah. I already went to bring Anisama supplies on my own earlier, so he’s fine.

Ya? Then that means he’s crossed off the list!

………..

…..How was Ryui-san doing…?

Um, about that…
