We're back.

Welcome back everyone! Good work on your assignment.

Didja enjoy the sauna?

All we did this time was look at it from outside.

Hehe... I'd like to go there someday too.

We've already received coupons, after all.

The thing is, it's gotten so popular that it's hard to make a reservation....

Well, you'll be able to go there eventually.

Yeah, you're right.

Chihiro, did they give you all those?

Yup, lotsa souvenirs!

These are hot spring manju! Let's enjoy 'em with everyone later!

There's also.. these see-through samue's for everyone, but we'll be respectfully putting these away in the warehoues as memento's.

Why is that? Go and try it on.

If you layer them together, it should be thick enough to be semi-transparent. Wouldn't it be safe to wear like that?

Of course not. / Fuckin' course not.

I also received a message from Ejimura-san, saying thank you and reassuring us that things are going well now.

When he approached me for advice, he was pretty depressed after all.

It's all thanks to Chihiro-kun's group!

Eheheh~! That's the work of the HAMA ward mayors everyone's so proud of☆

Ah, I'll get it!

Hello, you've reached HAMA Tours.

"Yes, this is Ejimura from 'Ejimura Hot Springs ver 2.0.0' that you've assisted..."

Thank you as well for taking care of our employees! We're so grateful for your thoughtfulness, and the kind message you sent the other day!

We believe that your business should be doing well now.... Did you have any other concerns?

"Actually, there's something else I'd like to ask of you....!"

Is that so...! Thank you for trusting us! What would you like to talk about?

"Yes. I'm actually thinking of hosting a new activity, called the "Towel-bearing 50 meter Dash Competition"......"

Eh.... towel-bearing...?

Geh.

"You see, we were inspired by Natsuyaki-san and everyone bravely running around the building and chasing some thieves with only towels around their waists!"

"We'd love for everyone at HAMA Tours to participate!"

Please wait a moment....

What's wrong?

He just told me Chihiro-kun and the rest were running around the inn only wearing towels.........

EEHH?! Ani-sama and Chii-sama, looking that provocative...?!

....That was not mentioned in the report.

Ah~ I did mention that we encountered some thieves in the outdoor bath.

You should've used your imagination a bit more, little one.

I-it's okies! Chii's group were the only customers there....! So there's no way there'll be a video leak!

It was an emergency, so we had no choice.

Just stop. You're makin' it sound worse........

And uhm, Ejimura-san wants us to participate in a 50 meter dash race only wearing towels......

What's with that, lol.

Ohhh, sounds good. Being all naked like that, kinda feels like it'll bring ya good luck.

Indeed, it's like the naked festival...!¹

Nono, that's completely different.

"....Hello?"

Ah, my apologies.

"So... would you like to participate?"

Erm... please wait a bit longer.

.....Guys, we should decline, right.....?

Obviously. / Fuckin' obviously.

The two of you are surprisingly in sync today.

He said 'that's too bad' but, he'd come to us for advice again in the future.......!

You're kidding.

Ahaha....! What an interesting guy.

I think Pres' is even more 'interesting' tho.

Fufu. I think that assignment was rather stimulating for us too.

Fr fr! I alsho learned a lot 'bout bringing out the best in yourself!

(Ejipyon will surely continue to have lotsa great ideas from now on.....)

Chii can't lose as an Alpha Dazzler either ☆
