"It's been a really hard time for everyone, and no matter how grateful you are, you can't compare to everyone's help to me, I'm really ...... I really don't know...... I don't know how to repay everyone!"

At a yakiniku restaurant near Yoyogi Park, Sakurako, who had just returned to Japan, drank a few beers and became a little excited. Thinking of the help that everyone in the study club has provided for Sakura-no-Sato during this time, Sakurako feels that she doesn't know how to repay everyone.

"Okay, okay, we've known each other for so long, and we're good neighbors and sisters, do we watch you wear yourself out?"

Miko saw Sakurako's touched face, and couldn't help but persuade her. The members of the study group who were present were also very happy at this time, and the feeling of everyone working together to do business made everyone's hearts full of fulfillment. Especially the people in the study group. Although everyone is an elite bureaucrat, in the final analysis, they are only marginal figures among the elite. Most of the members of the study club are not very enthusiastic about things like promotions, and because of this, they have the time to get together often and talk about things that everyone is interested in.

"Speaking of which, as a member of the Tourism Agency, I can only do my best this time, and I really can't compare to everyone......'s contributions! Compared to the businesses recommended by our tourism department before, Sakura-no-Sato is the one I am most familiar with, I remember that Sakura-no-Sato had just opened for business at that time, and it was the first time that the Forest Police Department took us there, and I thought that everyone would not be able to sleep after going back after sitting together for coffee at night!"

"yes, that's what I thought at the time! I was wondering...... Anyone who drinks the second round goes to a coffee shop......! I know I remember that cup of coffee back then!"

Hearing the memories of Kitamura and Kirihara Soji, everyone couldn't help but feel emotional. For Sakurako, although the people of the study club were not the first guests of Sakura-no-Sato, they were the most important group of guests. It can be said that for such a long time, Sakura-no-Sato has been slowly coming to this point with the support of everyone.

"But...... If I had to say, what impressed me the most was the first time Sakurako-chan made coffee beer! I remember that I was driven crazy by the monthly editor of the publishing house, and I really wanted to have a good drink! I didn't expect Sakurako to make such a delicious coffee beer, which has both the taste of coffee and the mellowness of beer. And...... I don't have the feeling of drunkenness after drinking, but it makes people feel extra refreshed, ah...... That cup of coffee really made me fall in love with Sakura-no......-Sato! Sakurako-chan, promise me that you will make Sakura-no-Sato's coffee better and better!"

"Hey, I'm never going to forget Miko-chan's request, and one day, I'm going to make coffee that will amaze the world. Only in this way can we repay the deep affection and kindness of all of you!"

"Come on!"

"It's just to have such momentum, boss!"

……

As everyone's emotions at the banquet were mobilized again, everyone couldn't help but raise their glasses again. When Mr. Kirihara put down the wine glass, he suddenly said with some emotion:

"Alas...... I didn't expect it to be in my lifetime...... There is also a chance to do something that makes me feel useful! Just now the proprietress said thank you, in fact...... I think I should express my gratitude to the hostess!"

"Eh, Mr. Kirihara, ...... you?"

Seeing Kirihara Soji saluting himself with a solemn face, Sakurako really couldn't figure out what was going on with the other party for a while!

"Actually...... For so long since joining the study club, I have always had a sentence in my heart that I don't know how to tell you......! In fact, I have always felt that my life is simply a great irony...... Why should I drink you guys all day long!"

Hearing Kirihara Soji suddenly say such rude words, everyone present couldn't help but stop a little embarrassed, and all looked at this guy who was a little arrogant on weekdays with a puzzled expression, and Miyuki Morino apologized to everyone with some guilt:

"I'm really sorry, this guy should have drunk too much, please don't take it to heart!"

"No...... I'm not drunk! I know...... Everybody usually thinks I'm a megalomaniac, right?! To be honest, I used to think that all of you here were uninformed! But ...... It's only recently that I've finally figured out a truth! Why...... What did we bring together in the first place? because...... We are the same kind of people! A group of useless elite bureaucrats who seem to outsiders to be very beautiful, but are actually slowly waiting to retire in bedside units!"

"Mr. Kirihara......"

Just when Miko wanted to stop it, Kitamura Nogeo stretched out his hand, raised his hands above his head and said as if surrendering:

"The unit by the window or something, it's simply the best!"

"Yes, my side is not just a windowside unit, it is like taking the salary of the state to travel around the mountains and rivers every day, although most of the places I go to are some villages that are about to disappear, but ...... I don't think this job is the best fit for me!"

Seeing Kitamura's actions, Seiichi Hasa, who has always been honest among the crowd, couldn't help but agree. And Miyuki Morino said equally enthusiastically:

"Windowside unit race high!"

……

When everyone expressed their hearts one by one, Shohei Kono, the only enthusiastic career among the people present, couldn't help but say with some embarrassment:

"That...... Although you do not agree with each other below, it is ...... It's a blessing to get to know everyone!"

"Ah...... Xiang Pingjun, you won't be the Minister of Foreign Affairs' direction of your efforts!"

"If he really became a minister, he would know how much he regretted it!"

"No matter what, it's still good to have ideals, but I don't believe that you will have the day when you become Minister of Foreign Affairs, haha!"

"But...... I heard that the current foreign minister's family does have a daughter, and it seems that she grew up abroad!"

"Huh...... So, if Kono-kun works hard, he should still have a little hope, but it's too spineless to get into it or something!"

……

"Mr. Kirihara, speaking of wealth, I remember that your ex-wife seems to be the vice minister of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, so you seem to be more experienced!"

"Ah...... I didn't expect you to even know this, and you really deserve to be an intelligence expert in the study club! But even if you are a daughter, if you can't even do housework, it still makes people feel distressed! So...... I'm going to divorce each other!"

"By the way, speaking of divorce, when are Kirihara-san and Morino-san going to get married?

"We ...... As soon as the hostess wins the World Barista Championship, we will have a wedding immediately!"

"Really, Mr. Kirihara, then you just wait for me to win the championship back soon!"
