People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

"Yeah... Well, it'll be good when the holidays come! I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I need to hurry up and finish up the Red Camellia thing. Then I'll be free for a while and maybe I can come over more often. Honey, you go ahead and do your thing. I can concentrate better on my own. Otherwise, if you're here, I'll always want to stick to you."

"You~"

"Hey~"

Chapter 30 Eri's Sweet Coffee, Eri's Relief (Please Subscribe~)

In the room at this time, Ran Mouri had already left. She had promised to go find Sonoko. She had originally planned to prepare breakfast, but when she got up in the morning, she saw that Eri Kisaki had gotten up even earlier.

She had already showered, changed her clothes, and had her hair done and was getting her makeup done when Eri Kisaki simply told Ran Mouri not to prepare her breakfast, as she would be going to run errands and would buy a coffee on the way.

Ran Mouri didn't prepare breakfast. Since she was going out to find Sonoko anyway, she bought breakfast while she was at it, saving herself the trouble of washing dishes and cooking. She was happy to have some free time. Since she didn't need to prepare breakfast, and Eri Kisaki also had things to do, Ran Mouri also left early.

Eri Kisaki glanced at her meticulously made-up self in the mirror, pursed her lips, and finally picked up one of her glasses and put it on. Her eyes were full of determination. She had already told Kogoro Mouri and knew that her outcome was good, so she had to be brave.

With that in mind, Eri picked up her bag and left home. Since it was still early and it wasn't the start of the school term, there weren't many people around. Since she had nothing else to do and hadn't had breakfast yet, she decided to head to the Bailuo Cafe early.

However, she seemed to have underestimated how seriously Kogoro Mouri took this matter. When she entered and arrived at her reserved spot, a man was already sitting in a chair, drinking coffee and reading a newspaper.

"Mori?! Why are you here so early?"

Kogoro Mouri put down his newspaper and said in a deep voice, "Eri, I don't want to hear those things you said before anymore. If you keep saying the same things, then there's no need to continue this conversation."

Eri Kisaki ignored Kogoro Mouri and, after sitting down, said to the waiter, "A glass of Blue Mountain coffee, a lemon tart, and a fruit salad. That'll do for now. Do you want something to eat? It's on me."

Kogoro Mouri didn't say anything, just stared intently at Eri Kisaki. Eri Kisaki sighed and said thank you, and that was that. The waiter left, and Kogoro Mouri said in a deep voice, "What exactly do you want to say?"

"Xiaolan will be an adult soon; she'll be an adult in a few months."

"So, you're sticking to the same old formula?"

"No, I plan to tell Xiaolan after the New Year this year that I will book a restaurant, so that Xiaolan won't be too upset and come to me after finding out."

Kogoro Mouri was taken aback by these words and said with a strange expression, "You seemed so determined before, why did you suddenly change your mind?"

Eri Kisaki sighed and said, "This trip has taught me a lot and made me realize a lot. I can't be with Ran forever. She's much stronger and more mature than I imagined. That wouldn't be a good outcome for anyone."

Hearing Eri's words, Kogoro Mouri's expression softened a bit, and he said, "It should have been like this a long time ago. You should have your own life now."

"You don't need to worry about that, and... I already have a man I like."

"Hmm? It seems that you haven't just been thinking about these things lately; you've finally started to consider yourself too."

Eri Kisaki breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I knew it from the very beginning, but I didn't think too far ahead. In that case, you can rest assured. So there's no need to pretend anymore."

"If what you say is true, then there is naturally no need for it."

"Moreover, Ran told me last night that she plans to give up on Shinichi Kudo because she feels tired."

"Hmph, I never thought highly of that brat from the very beginning. Although Yusaku doesn't have much emotional intelligence, it's still within the normal range."

"What right do you have to say others lack emotional intelligence?"

"What's wrong with me?! I'm perfectly normal! Besides, are you dressed like that for a date later?"

Eri blushed and shook her head, saying, "No, he's been very busy lately, and I also have a lawsuit. It's just that this is a serious matter, so I need to get ready properly. I also plan to go shopping with Ran this afternoon."

What does the man you like do?

"Does it have anything to do with you?"

"After all, you're a strong-willed, aloof, extremely serious and rational person, and a perfectionist. You've never been in a relationship before, so I'm just worried you might act impulsively."

Eri Kisaki said irritably, "Don't worry about it. He's a good guy. He's a restaurant owner, handsome, considerate, has a good life, and treats me very well. Besides, I'm not cold to everyone."

"It seems you've considered this carefully. Let's do it this way then, but why after the New Year?"

"Do you want her to know the truth during a time of family joy?"

Kogoro Mouri nodded without saying anything, stood up, went straight to the counter, paid for his and Eri Kisaki's meal, and then left.

Eri Kisaki felt somewhat lost, as if all her previous efforts had come to an end in an instant. She had a strange feeling, a sense of emptiness in her heart, a feeling of relief as her shoulders relaxed, and a sense of joy and excitement for her new life.

"So...it wasn't as difficult as I imagined..."

Eri thought they would talk a lot today, but to her surprise, it didn't even last ten minutes, and her coffee and other things hadn't even been served yet.

"Madam, here's your coffee, lemon tart, and fruit salad. Please let me know if you need anything."

"Okay, by the way, when did that guy arrive?"

The waiter paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "That gentleman from earlier? He was waiting at the door before we even opened door 2.1, so we don't know exactly when he arrived. We're sorry."

Eri Kisaki paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's alright, could you give me some more sugar cubes?"

"Okay...please wait a moment."

"Your sugar cube..."

After adding a few cubes to her coffee, Eri tasted it, then pursed her lips and said softly, "Sweet coffee, it's pretty good too..."

Just as Eri Kisaki was relaxing and preparing to enjoy her new life, several other places, both in this world and the other world, were also becoming incredibly lively.

Chapter 31 An unexpected encounter with Momoi Satsuki, and the brats who are coming (Please subscribe~)

Eri Kisaki finally breathed a sigh of relief. Ran Mouri had successfully reunited with Sonoko. Sonoko was thanking Ran Mouri like she had seen a savior. Ran Mouri was helpless about this. She had been having so much fun this summer that she had forgotten her job.

Meanwhile, at Hyotei Academy's tennis club, Atobe Keigo was leading his members in training. Although the official start of the semester was tomorrow, many clubs had already resumed practice or cleaned the courts today.

"Everyone, let's go out for dinner tonight. I'll pay for everything. Consider it a celebration and reward before the summer vacation ends."

Yuushi Oshitari asked somewhat strangely, "Why did you suddenly decide to have a get-together? And where is it?"

"Just meet at Bailuo Cafe tonight, as for the address..."

"It should be the shop of Mr. Shiraha whom I met before."

"Eh?! Mr. Shiraha's shop! I've never been there before, Atobe, have you been there already?"

"That's right, all you need to do is gather together. You can continue training now. Coach Sakaki has been dealing with new training equipment recently, so add two sets to your usual training volume and practice on your own. This time we just showed our sportsmanship and let them win the championship. We must win it back next time."

"Yes!"xn

Compared to Hyotei, Seigaku and Rikkai seemed much more ordinary. They didn't expect to come to train on the last day of summer vacation. They were all in summer vacation mode. Fuji Yuuta went back to St. Rudolph for the past few days because he lived on campus.

Fuji Syusuke has been in a very good mood lately. His older sister's love life is going well and her family is harmonious. After returning home, she talked to him and his mother about summer vacation plans, future family plans, and marriage plans. She looked so happy and joyful that Fuji Syusuke was happy for her too.

They won the national championship, and Tezuka Kunimitsu's injury was healed. Even if he goes to another team in the future, he will have no regrets when he faces off against them. This summer vacation went very well for Fuji Syusuke.

"Huh? Tezuka, you mean we're going to have dinner at Shiraha-nii's shop tonight? We're finally going to take Echizen and the others with us."

"Heh...it must be very interesting. See you at six o'clock tonight."

"No, I'm not going. I have some things to discuss with Mom today, and I've already gone to work."

"But then again, school starts tomorrow, so I expect there will be quite a lot of customers. It would be better to go early today."

"Okay, then let's leave it at that for now."

Meanwhile, on the other side, Oishi Shuichiro, Echizen Ryoma, and others also received the news. Although Echizen had amnesia, he had only forgotten things that happened when he was very young, not things that happened when he grew up. So he was also very curious about Shiraha's cooking.

"You don't need to prepare any dishes for tonight. We're going to have dinner at Mr. Shiraha's restaurant."

Echizen Nanjiro, who was reading the "newspaper," paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "So you bunch of rascals went to his shop first? That's fine, it doesn't matter. Tell him on your way out that he can come to our house sometime and wish him a happy engagement."

"That's really not something you would say."

"Hey, brat, you're still a long way off... Remember to talk to Nanako about it later and see how that kid is doing."

Ryoma Echizen paused for a moment, then said somewhat strangely, "Are you going to set my cousin up on a blind date?"

"How could that be? I encourage free love, okay? Young people should be left to solve their own problems. That's the right way."

Ryoma Echizen glanced at Nanjiro Echizen with the look one might give a strange old man before turning around and going back to his room, seemingly to do nothing. Rinko Echizen, however, asked curiously, "Honey, are you really going to try and set Nanako up with you? Nanako has never even met Mr. Shiraha."

"I never said that. It's always good for Nanako to get to know more people while she's at university. Aren't the Shiraha family trustworthy? Besides, Nanako isn't stupid; the choice is hers."

"That's true... In the blink of an eye, almost a year has passed."

"Yes, it seems like everything will become very exciting in the next year or two."

"You used to love joining in the fun just like that."

"You're much less interesting than you were back then."

"You still think I'm that silly girl? It's just the two of us tonight, what do you want to eat?"

"Of course, let's eat out."

"Okay."

In a shopping mall on the other side, a girl with long pink hair said with some confusion, "Hmm? So it's today? Hmm... I know, he probably hasn't gotten up yet. I didn't ask. I came here to buy things today."

"Wait... that's... I won't talk to you now, you should contact Heizi and the others yourself!"

As soon as the girl hung up the phone, she ran off in one direction. Kasugano Sora and the others, who were drinking in front of a shop and looking at something, turned around when they heard the footsteps and were all stunned.

"Xiao Qiong! It really is you guys!"

"May! What a coincidence! You're here too!"

"School starts tomorrow, and as the team manager, I definitely need to come and buy some things!"

Jinx tilted her head and said, "May? Your friend?"

Kasugano Sora said with a smile, "It's normal that you don't recognize her. This is May, Momoi May. Now you know who she is, right?"

"Oh!" xn

You'll know who Momoi Satsuki is as soon as you hear her name. She's the basketball team manager who's suspected of becoming a sister in the family and has a good relationship with the family. Looking at her, she is indeed very beautiful and energetic.

Momoi Satsuki also politely said, "Hello everyone, I am Momoi Satsuki, you can just call me Satsuki."

Jinx and the others introduced themselves, and Momoi Satsuki nodded repeatedly to show that she remembered. Momoi Satsuki asked curiously, "Sora, what are you doing here? Are you buying something?"

"Well... I was going to go find Zhu Mei and the others, but they were either doing their homework or busy. Jinx and the others came to the driving school and bought some things, so I figured I'd just go with them. I'll be learning to drive eventually anyway."

"Oh, I see... Oh right! I heard from Xiao Huang last night that they were all going to eat at the restaurant."

"You're all here... That's quite rare... My husband must be very busy tonight, I guess Sister Gurefia and the others will be helping out. May! You should come too! You haven't seen your husband in so long!"

"husband...."

"what happened?"

Momoi Satsuki waved her hand somewhat awkwardly and said, "N-nothing, I'll definitely go. See you all tonight, I'm going to buy some things now."

After Momoi Satsuki left, Nami crossed her arms, nodded, and said, "Yeah, as expected, we don't need to ask the people here."

“That’s right…”

Chapter Thirty-Two: An Unexpected Encounter with Luna of the Underworld, Caitlyn and Vi's Actions (Please Subscribe~)

"My God... Tsunade! Your figure is outrageous! It's even more outrageous than mine!"

"That's right, my goodness, Tsunade, your figure has gotten even better over the summer! It's terrifying, absolutely terrifying! Tell me honestly, are you over puberty yet?"

"I feel... it should be soon... actually it's okay, I'm not growing much anymore."

"That's good... Tsunade-neechan! Can I have some of your figure?"

After Tsunade walked out of a clothing store carrying several bags, she said to Yoshikawa Yuki beside her with an annoyed tone, "I'd like to know how to divide them. Do you think having a good figure is a good thing? It makes it hard to buy clothes and taking a shower is a hassle."

"You're just showing off!"

Kasugano Sora sighed and said, "I'm used to it. Starting with Tsunade, and going down the list, then there's Medici, Zdrada, Judgment, Yukari, Grayfia—aren't they all monsters? I've come to terms with it."

Kitagawa Kaimu nodded and said, "Indeed, we've gotten used to it."

"You're a monster too!"

"I...I'm alright...it's not that bad..."

Aoi Hinami said irritably, "Save your breath. Why don't you exaggerate? It's obviously very exaggerated. But speaking of which, I've already spoken to the manager and the department head. Fukami, you can go and get your resignation application to them when school starts tomorrow."

"You've already written your resignation application?"
