After entering the coffee shop, Eichi and Artoria found a quiet corner and sat down.
They then ordered two signature coffees and several delicate-looking snacks.
"Speaking of which, why is the coffee here called 'one cup to fill you up'? Even if it's 'full,' shouldn't it be 'drink until full'?"
Eichi looked at the shop's popular reviews on his phone, feeling puzzled.
"You'll know when the coffee arrives."
Artoria never wasted her energy on such aningless things.
"You're right."
Eichi also felt he was overthinking it.
So he began chatting with Artoria about the topics he had thought of last night.
They were all aningless words, neither filling their stomachs nor solving any problems.
But for so reason, the two of them found a rare sense of relaxation in this casual conversation.
"Guests, your coffee is ready. Please enjoy."
A man in a butler's uniform placed two large cups of coffee on the table, bowed, and left.
Eichi looked at the large cups of coffee in front of him, puzzled.
Normally, coffee servings were much, much smaller than juice, milk tea, and other drinks.
Many coffees were only served in small cups of 200 or 300 milliliters.
But these cups of coffee in front of them were a bit too big, were they not?
At least 800 milliliters.
Eichi rembered that drinking too much coffee could cause physical discomfort.
Unlike Eichi, who looked bewildered, Artoria had already begun enjoying the large cup of coffee in front of her.
Artoria first tasted the milk foam on the surface of the coffee with a plastic spoon, then inserted a straw into the cup and began to drink.
It is worth noting that the tip of this spoon had three prongs, like a fork.
Seeing this, Eichi stopped overthinking it. He inserted the straw and took a sip.
Eichi frowned, realizing sothing was wrong.
I sip, I sip, I sip sip sip.
I can't sip anything!
Eichi put down the straw in confusion, then used the spoon to poke the bottom of the cup.
The spoon quickly t resistance.
This was clearly not sothing milk tea toppings could produce.
Eichi exerted force with the hand holding the spoon.
A clump of noodles, covered in fragrant coffee and topped with cream, was lifted by Eichi with the fork-like part of the spoon.
"...It really is one cup to fill you up."
Eichi was speechless.
So which genius ca up with the idea of coffee-flavored instant noodles?
Even Eichi, who had seen countless bizarre snacks and drinks in Japan, felt his brain freeze for a mont.
"Are you already full, Eichi?"
Artoria looked up in confusion. Seeing Eichi say he was full before he had even started, she asked with concern.
Hunger was a great enemy.
Artoria was worried that Eichi might be feeling unwell.
"I was just thinking that we shouldn't eat too much. There will be many more delicious foods waiting for us later."
Eichi replied with a smile.
"Is that so? Then I'll eat less too."
Upon hearing that there would be many more delicious foods later, Artoria imdiately put on a serious expression.
Eichi put the noodles into his mouth.
The noodles were very soft and soaked in coffee, giving them a subtle bitter aroma.
The bitterness, offset by the cream, was beautifully transford into a fragrant bitterness that gave a refreshing feeling.
Eichi picked up the straw, inserted it into the center of the cup, and took a sip.
The coffee had a rich flavor. Milk or other flavoring must have been added, because it was not bitter.
'The taste is good.'
Eichi made an evaluation in his mind.
Not far from the shop, Panda and Toge were crouching around the corner of a wall, observing the two inside.
"Hmm, it looks pretty good now."
Panda saw the two in the shop chatting and laughing, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Salmon roe."
Toge nodded, letting out a sigh of relief at the sa ti.
Thankfully, Eichi-sensei was normal, so the problem could only be Gojo-sensei.
Only Panda and Toge had co.
Maki was not interested in this kind of thing, and Yuta stayed by Rika's side.
Hakari Kinji and Hoshi Kirara had gone to Tokyo together.
It was said that they had even booked a hotel.
As the two stared intently at the shop, another head appeared above them at so point.
"Yay, I made it, I made it."
"Gojo-sensei?"
"Salmon roe!"
Panda and Toge were startled by the sudden voice behind them.
Especially Toge.
He had just been thinking that he should avoid Satoru in the future, but he had not expected Satoru to sneak up behind him so silently.
Toge was so frightened that he almost shouted a Cursed Speech.
"Seriously, don't scare us, Gojo-sensei."
Panda let out a breath and wiped the nonexistent cold sweat from his forehead.
"Gon, gon, I'll do it again next ti."
"What are you doing here?"
Panda looked helplessly at Satoru, who was quick to admit fault but firm about not changing, and asked.
"Ah, didn't I hear that Eichi was going on a date? As his best friend, I rushed over right away to help."
At this mont, far away at Tokyo Jujutsu High, Shoko yawned and then lay down on her bed.
"This way, Gojo won't bother for the next few days, right?"
With that, Shoko peacefully fell asleep.
Unlike Shoko, who slept extrely peacefully, Panda only felt that this date seed to be gradually drifting away from the plan he had set for Eichi.
"Um, Gojo-sensei."
Panda raised his paw and asked timidly.
"Oh, Panda-kun, please speak!"
Seeing soone respond, Satoru imdiately beca interested.
"Gojo-sensei, what surprise have you prepared for Eichi-sensei?"
"Hehe, of course it would be a whole street full of surprises."
Satoru spread his arms, drawing a huge circle.
"A whole street?"
Panda's question mark.jpg
"Yes, a whole street."
After saying that, Satoru lightly jumped over the two of them, then pointed toward the street that stretched all the way to the foot of the mountain.
"From here to the foot of the mountain, every shop is now property of the Gojo family!"
Satoru raised his hands high, looked up at the sky, and announced loudly.
Boom, crack.
At this mont, Panda and Toge deeply felt the unfathomable "power" of Satoru.
The next mont, the two of them, one on the left and one on the right, hugged Satoru's legs.
"Gojo-sensei, if you do not mind, Panda wishes to be adopted as your godson."
Panda imdiately put on the most devastatingly cute expression he had ever seen pandas make on TV.
"Salmon roe! Salmon roe!" [ too.]
Toge also echoed without hesitation.
In an instant, the corner turned into a scene of a loving family.
"What are they doing over there?"
"I don't know, maybe they're having a chuunibyou episode. Just now, they said this whole street belonged to their family."
"One's wearing an eye mask, one's in a mascot costu, and the last one has half his face covered. Is it cosplay?"
"I don't know, but I'm really worried about the ntal state of college students these days."
Because Satoru had led them out of the narrow alley and onto the main street, the strange behavior of the three was seen by all the passersby.
In the end, those passersby all concluded that the three of them were performing so kind of performance art.
