Kuchibeta Shokudou ch57: Refill

p1
>When it comes to the barley tea at "Ajidokoro Kuchinashi",

>there are self-service days
>when customers refill their glasses themselves

>and there are days when they don't.
>Thank you.

>...Why is that?

p2
>In general,
>"self-service makes it easier to drink without hesitation."
>...or so I'm told.

>So then... does the self-service disappear
>because it's a problem if they drink too much?

>No.

>Everyone's being considerate of the clerk and the other customers.
>"I should try not to drink all of it myself..."

>...The result of them all overthinking things.

p3
>On the other hand... the phenomenom known as "I won't let anyone touch it"
>tends to break out once in a while!!

>...That being said,

>there are those who struggle with calling to the clerk each time.
>Namely me, mind you.

>Care for a refill~?
>Please~
>That's why there are "coffee shop style" days when the clerk will scout around for any empty glasses.

p4
>"Work" is an endless cycle of trial and error...

>Uuh.
>It's hot...

>...Maybe I'll rest in that convenience store for a moment.

>No...
>I've made it this far
>in this heat.

p5
>I want to hang on a little longer,
>so I can enter "Kuchinashi" and cool off all at once.

>Fufu...
>This way of thinking

>is like going back and forth
>between a sauna and a cold bath...

>To me, "Kuchinashi" is just like
>a "leisure resort"!!

p6
>There are those "image menus" that collab cafés tend to have too.
>>Made from wheat, this beverage will cool off your body from the blazing summer heat!!!!
>>Barley tea - "0 yen"
>If I frame even something as simple as barley tea like this,
>it might seem even more delicious.

>Welcome!
>Take a seat wherever's free~

p7
>The barley tea
>will run out after the next glass.

>But there's no need to be hold back here.
>...It'll be fine as long as I ask for it to be refilled...!

>...Um, excuse me.
>This needs a top-up.

p8
>Sure!

>Ah.

>What do I do?
>We're out of barley leaves.
>>Purse
>Hah

>D-Don't worry.
>There should still be some in the warehouse!
>I'll go look for them right away!

>The End
