"Um, excuse me, is Satou here?"
A weak voice sounded at the door. A young girl with blue hair tied into two braids, looking delicate and cute, stood prettily at the entrance, looking inside with some trepidation.
"Oh? Aren't you Megumi?"
Alice Nakiri looked at her in surprise and said, "Why are you here?"
"Eh? Is it A... Miss Alice?"
When Tadokoro Megumi saw that Alice Nakiri was also there, a hint of panic appeared on her small face, and she said somewhat timidly, then hid the bento in her hand behind her, clearly not expecting Alice Nakiri to be here as well.
"Oh, is it Megumi? I'm so sorry, it's a bit stinky here."
Satou was also a bit surprised to see Tadokoro Megumi suddenly looking for him. Although it wasn't very far from Far Moon, she should have had to take the train.
"Megumi, is there something you need here?"
He asked.
"Ah. Nothing much."
Tadokoro Megumi glanced at the abundant bento in front of Satou, and somewhat guiltily hid her bento box behind her back.
"Oh? Megumi, did you also bring a bento?"
Alice Nakiri had sharp eyes and immediately spotted the bento box hidden behind her.
Seeing that she had been exposed, Tadokoro Megumi's small face immediately flushed. She bit the bullet and could only take out the bento box from behind her, saying in a timid whisper, "Um, I was worried that Satou hadn't prepared a bento, and I asked Hisako, so... so I specially prepared a little."
"Is that so? Thank you so much, Megumi, you're really thoughtful."
Satou felt a little touched. Earlier, Tadokoro Megumi had sent him a text message asking where he was.
It seemed she had secretly asked Hisako Arato later, and then brought the bento at noon.
"I didn't realize you, fellow, were quite popular with girls!"
Uncle Takeda patted Satou's shoulder and teased him.
Everyone else burst into laughter.
"How enviable."
"Yeah, two girls prepared bentos for you with such care."
"Indeed, being young is great."
They all teased him enviously.
Amidst everyone's laughter, Tadokoro Megumi's small face was flushed, feeling very embarrassed.
"This girl is also very gentle and cute, Brother Satou, which one is your girlfriend after all?"
Osomatsu asked from the side.
Satou lightly coughed and tapped him.
Alice Nakiri puffed out her cheeks, slightly annoyed, clearly a bit unhappy to see another girl bringing Satou a bento.
"Um, Satou, if you don't mind, please have some."
Tadokoro Megumi mustered her courage and placed the bento box on the table.
Alice Nakiri's bento box was a high-end one made of redwood. In comparison, Tadokoro Megumi's bento box seemed much more common, just an ordinary bento box bought from a supermarket. The dishes inside also didn't have high-end ingredients like caviar or tuna sushi; they were just ordinary ingredients, but made with great care.
The snow-white rice balls, combined with seaweed, were made into cute, round pandas, and there were also octopuses made from sausages, and roly-poly dolls made from boiled eggs, looking very exquisite and adorable.
"Thank you."
Satou quickly said.
"Wow, that's amazing, are you all Far Moon students?"
Osomatsu watched the bentos made by the two of them from the side, exclaiming and secretly swallowing his saliva.
It was his first time seeing such exquisite and beautiful bentos.
"Ah, um."
Tadokoro Megumi's small face flushed, and she nodded somewhat shyly.
Alice Nakiri lightly snorted, hooked Satou's arm, and said, "Come, Satou, try the tuna sushi I made."
Then she picked up a piece and put it into Satou's mouth.
"How is it?"
She asked with anticipation.
"Mm, it's very delicious."
Satou nodded. The taste was indeed very good.
"Um, Satou, please try my panda rice ball."
Tadokoro Megumi suddenly mustered her courage and said.
"Oh, okay."
Satou quickly picked up a panda rice ball and put it into his mouth, praising while tasting, "It's really delicious."
"Is it?"
Tadokoro Megumi's face flushed slightly, looking very happy.
Alice Nakiri puffed out her pink cheeks from the side, and without a word, picked up a piece of fugu sashimi, dipped it in a little wasabi, and put it into Satou's mouth, smiling slightly and saying, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
"Satou, please try my takoyaki."
Tadokoro Megumi smiled slightly and very obediently pushed the bento box towards Satou.
Seeing her like this, Satou could only pick up an octopus ball and taste it.
"Come, Satou, this is sea bream sashimi."
Alice Nakiri picked up another piece of sashimi.
The two girls were clearly competing in secret. Although their smiles were kind and cute, and their voices gentle, the atmosphere was very tense, with a feeling of swords drawn.
Looking at the Shura field in front of him, everyone around couldn't help but cast sympathetic glances at Satou.
"Come, Satou, open your mouth."
Alice Nakiri smiled slightly, holding a dish. Although her voice was gentle and amiable, there was an undeniable tone in her words.
"Um, Satou, please try this."
Tadokoro Megumi also said gently from the side, but similarly, it was impossible to refuse.
The two girls exchanged glances, as if cold electricity collided, but quickly looked away.
Satou immediately felt his scalp tingle, but in this situation, it was clearly impossible to refuse either of them, so he could only bite the bullet and eat all the dishes they offered.
After a short while, he felt his stomach full and couldn't eat anymore.
"Um, can I also have some?"
Osomatsu watched eagerly from the side.
"Of course, no problem."
Alice Nakiri smiled slightly, very polite.
"Please help yourself."
Tadokoro Megumi also wore a gentle smile on her face.
"Is this caviar? It's my first time eating it."
Osomatsu ate a caviar seaweed sushi, exclaiming. It was his first time tasting such high-class food.
"Miss, I want to eat too."
Ryo said obediently from the side, he was also a bit hungry.
Alice Nakiri pushed him aside with disdain.
Under the "enthusiastic hospitality" of the two girls, Satou bit the bullet and ate both bentos completely. After eating, he felt like he couldn't eat anything else.
However, Alice Nakiri seemed very happy, smiling and patting Satou's shoulder, saying, "That's great, I'll continue to bring you bento tomorrow!"
