Sumi/Tougou/Yumiko birthday 2020 - 4

With pure hearts poured in - 4

[Library]

Yuu: History of udon, history of udon... Too bad, someone took it out already.

Its: Let's try searching for a slightly broader topic then, like "history of noodles" or "history of Shikoku cuisine".

Fuu: That's my Itsuki! Not just cute but also smart, you're just like me!

Kar: Yeah, yeah, now cut the chatter and start searching... Huh? The people in front of that shelf...

Ren: Oh, Karin. All of you are here. What book are you looking for?

Yuu: We were looking for books to help us make the best udon for Tougou-san and Sumi-chan.

Kir: For real! We're here researching since we want to make the strongest skipjack tuna udon for Yumii. We think alike, eh.

Fuu: Huh, you're making udon too.

Aka: Our feelings are the same.

Kar: But our team isn't making any regular udon. We're pursuing truly delicious udon!

Meb: So are we, we're going to tune it up to make unique and delicious first-class udon!

Its: Shh. You two are in a library, quiet. The elementary girls are hard at work searching.

Meb: I'm sorry. That was careless of me.

Kar: Me too. Sorry, got too hot-headed. Gin and Sonoko-chan are really serious about it, huh.

Gin: Hmm. There isn't really a book here that straight up says "history of udon".

Son: Yeah. Aww...

Wak: Nogi, what's wrong? Why are you sighing?

Gin: Wakaba-san! Tamako-san and others, too. We're just having a hard time looking for something.

Hin: You're searching for a book on history of udon, right? If memory serves, it originated long, long in the past.

Gin: I see! That's an important lead... Ah! Hinata-san, your team is our rival...

Son: We must not accept their help! Endure, endure...

Chi: We're just in charge of different things, not enemies.

Tak: That's right. We all have the same goal: making the party fun. If you're in trouble, ask anything!

Gin: That's it... Ah, I almost forgot about the goal, the important part. Sorry.

Son: Sorry.

Anz: Don't worry about it. So you're researching the history of udon, right?

Gin: That's right. We thought it'd be good to know it if we're going to make tasty udon.

Anz: From what I've read in a book once, the original form of udon was round, like squashed dumplings.

Tam: Seriously!? Then when did it become long and thin like now?

Anz: Around the Edo era, apparently.

Gin: Edo? We're talking about the Edo from all the period dramas about samurais, right?

Tam: So samurais ate udon too!

Son: So bushido was built on udon!

Sek: Okay that's definitely a stretch...
