Chapter 1841: Golden Encounter 9

<Author's Notes>

I'm a bit busy, so today's chapter is a bit short.



At a tea item shop, since we're here anyway, I bought myself a teaspoon, and seemingly having found something nice, Aria-san also purchased a teaspoon before we left the store.

After that, neither of us had a particular place we wanted to go, so we opted to enjoy some window shopping. I don't get a chance to come to the Western District that often, so the streets around here are rather new to me. I know a fair amount of food establishments from Kuro's Eating Tour in its Entirety Guide, but other than those, I know almost nothing about the area.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

As I walked down the street with Aria-san, scanning the shops to see what was around, Aria-san suddenly seemed to have spotted something and a mischievous grin appeared on her face.

[Kaito-sama, while we're at it, why don't the two of us do something a little naughty?]

[Eh? Huh?]

Calm down, she probably doesn't mean anything weird. Although we have only known each other for a short time, I know that Aria-san isn't the kind of person who makes such jokes, so what she's talking about here isn't about something lewd, but definitely something more about manners. That's why, don't imagine anything strange Let's calm our minds.

Telling myself this, I looked where Aria-san's eyes were looking and found a single stall.

[Stick snacks huh.]

Well, that being said, since Aria-san seems to be having trouble picking between two flavors, I'll teach her a little secret here.

[Fufufu, it seems that Aria-san doesn't know the trick in times like this. Actually, there's a hidden ordering technique that solves Aria-san's problem.]

[W- What did you say.? W- Was such a dreamy technique really possible?]

When I tried saying that with a slightly mischievous tone, Aria-san joined along without hesitation. It seems like she's the type who's good at playing along.

Seeing her reaction, I couldn't help but smile wryly, but upon glancing at the shopkeeper, I saw him looking at us with an empty smile.

[Hou, you have a very sharp eye, laddie. However, at such a young age, I wonder if you really understood the existence of our hidden menu?]

It seems like this guy's also someone good at playing along. Wait, doesn't this feel like you're gonna make this topic continue!?



<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [How heartwarming. Lately, I've been able to tolerate the heartwarming stuff Unnn, this does feel better than sweet stuff anyway.]

? ? ? : [After this arc ends, I feel like the author's gonna write a short story involving his lovers]
