- Page 01
- Sorry, Hebika.
- Just stay put in here for a bit.
- I'll play with you a lot later on, 'kay?
- Page 02
- Sorry to keep you waiting.
- Come on in.
- Sorry to intrude.
- Page 04
- I made sure to put Hebika in another room.
- Page 05
- Everyone!
- This is Takane from the same office I work at!
- Huh? What's the matter?
- Page 06
- Y-You're all being pretty quiet...
- This is how the animals see her
- Just sit tight while I make Inumi and the other's food first.
- Okay.
- Page 07
- This evening's moon looks quite nice tonight.
- Page 08
- All of you are good pets aren't you?
- Page 09
- Guys! Dinner time!
- Looks like they really got used to you...
- All right, wanna cook up our food now?
- Yes, please do so.
- You're not gonna cook with me?
- Huh?
- Eh?
- Page 10
- Indeed there are times where I prepare my own food...
- But when it comes to 'curry', that's a different story.
- There are hundreds of various flavors of 'curry'.
- Each household has their own variation on the flavor.
- I want to taste your 'curry', Hibiki.
- Oh...
- My curry is pretty normal...
- Sorry to burst your bubble.
- Is that so?
- Page 11
- But...
- I do have a little trick to it!
- I'm gonna peel the carrots.
- Can you dice those?
- All right.
- You sure you can do it?
- How rude...!
- Of course I can.
- Well, I know from Gero Gero Kitchen that you're pretty decent.
- Pretty decent...?
- Page 12
- How many should I cut?
- All of 'em.
- When it comes to my curry
- I use a lot of onions.
- Ah, Takane!
- When you use the knife, you gotta make your hand into a cat's paw
- Cat's paw?
- Nyaa?
- I figured you'd do that.
- Page 13
- I'll teach you how, so grab the knife.
- Okay.
- You mind if I get close, Takane?
- Showing her directly is the fastest way...
- Like this... gently make a fist and let it slide down your hand.
- I see.
- Yeah, like that.
- Page 14
- I'm... I'm gonna get back to peeling the vegetables.
- Takane smelled really nice, I was surprised...
- It's been a while since I've had a guest over
- Am I acting nervous...?
- Hibiki...
- Tears have been falling nonstop for a while now...
- Page 15
- That'll make the tears stop.
- I shee.
- Are you sure this isn't too much?
- Hehe! Now...
- in an oiled frying pan
- We carefully saute them.
- I see...
- Be careful not to burn them.
- While you do that I'll wash the rice.
- Understood.
- Page 16
- They should be done now.
- That took quite a long time...
- Using that as a base for the flavor will make it taste totally different!
- Next we season the beef and cook it.
- Along with the thinly sliced garlic.
- After that, we'll add the largely chopped vegetables.
- Then we add water.
- Okay.
- Page 17
- The roux is store-bought, but we're gonna mix three different brands.
- Oh my...
- Also
- The secret ingredient, chocolate
- My goodness...!
- Page 18
- Then instant coffee
- How unusual...
- Just a teaspoon~
- Phew...
- Piroriri~♪
- Perfect timing, the rice is done.
- Not just yet.
- Page 19
- We'll turn off the flame and let the flavors mingle a little.
- Gosh...
- You're making light of curry, Takane.
- In actuality, the longer it simmers the better it turns out.
- ...I cannot wait that long
- I know.
- Ta-da! It's done!
- Just as I grew tired of waiting.
- Page 20
- Now then, let's eat.
- Aahn~
- H-How is it?
- It's absolutely marvelous.
- Page 21
- We did it!
- Just as I thought.
- 'Curry' is a condensed 'likeness' of the person who cooked it.
- For now, I think I shall call it "The Hibiki Special."
- Aahn...
- Page 22
- Fufu.
- It tastes like you, Hibiki.
- T-That sounds really weird!
- How so?
- Anyway
- Curry tastes better the next day.
- Next day...?
- Page 23
- Letting it rest for a night makes the flavors come together...
- Hibiki!
- W-What?
- Will you allow me to stay over for the night?
- Just because of that!?
- Sure, that's fine...
- Page 24
- Jeez...
- Takane's obsession with food is pretty amazing.
- ...Hibiki.
- Page 25
- Eeeh!?
- W-W-Why are you coming in here!?
- As thanks for today, I thought I could wash your back...
- I-I'm fine by myself!
- But then I won't feel like I've repaid you.
- Waaaah!
- Y-You're too close!
- Page 26
- She got flustered and ran out...
- I wonder what she is embarrassed about at this point?
- Hibiki? Is something the matter?
- Ugyaa! Don't come in! Just let me be alone for a bit!
- Page 27
- Fufu...
- Taking a bath together reminds me of the time we took that trip...
- Ah...
- Page 28
- Takane!
- The 'Curry' the next day tasted even better.
- Hahaha...
