Chapter 213

213. Hou Ren Sou

I went to work and approached the director to talk right away.

「Director, there's something I want to talk to you about.」

「N?  What do you want to talk about?」

「Uhhm, I want you to ask the president to talk as well……」

「I see, it's a talk related to 'that', huh.」

The director seemed to understand what I wanted to talk about and immediately contacted the president.

***

「Oh, Maruyama-kun, I'm really indebted to you during that time with the medicine.」

There might be someone who forgot but 『Maruyama』is me.

The director, president and I held a secret meeting on the sofa of the president's office.

「Then, don't stand on ceremony, what do you want to talk about?

Well, since it's you it will be a wonderful talk again.」

My value is soaring in the president.

「Actually, I obtained something again but different from those ones,

I thought I should report it to the director and the president first and foremost……」

「That's also great but it's a different thing again?

My interest is greatly piqued.」

「Actually……」

I lined up four types of potions on top of the lounge suit's table.

「N?  There are several kinds?」

「Yeah.」

First, I picked up the elixir―

「This is a drink which hastens the recovery of a considerable serious injury.」

「W-, What!?」

I explained the other potions as well in rapid succession.

「The other ones are drinks which deal with the hair, fat, and chest problems.」

「!!?

……Sorry, what did you say just now?」

「To put it plainly……

these drinks are for bald, fat, and flat-chested.」

The president and the director stiffened with their mouths wide open.

「No, no! Such a thing is impossible!」

That's right, it's impossible to suddenly believe such a thing.

「It's reasonable that you can't believe it.

Please forget this talk.

I decided to consult others.」

When I got up from my seat and was going to leave……

「Wait a moment, Maruyama-kun!」

「Yes, what is it?」

「I-, I didn't say that I don't believe it in particular.

Now, now. Sit.」

「Haa.」

As soon as I returned to my seat, the director tapped my shoulder.

「I believed you from the beginning!

Please give me each one for the hair, fat, and chest.」

「Ah, so cunning!

I'll take everything including the one for the wound too!」

「No, give me 2 each of everything!」

「Then, I'm 3 each!!」

The director's stealing a march on the president became the trigger and started to compete to have them.

「Please calm down you two.

There isn't much of them.

There are only 2 left of the one for the chest since my imouto used 1,

the other ones, there are 3 each.」

「T-, That's right……

Then, I will take 2 each of the one for the hair and 1 each of the rest.」

「Then, I will take 2 each of the one for the fat, of course, I will also take 1 each of the rest.」

The president and the director will take 2 each of the one for the hair and the one for the fat respectively, huh……

It seems like I can agree to the director with his body but……

who will the president use it for?

When I kept glancing around the president's head……

「Don't misunderstand, okay?

My hair is a natural hair!

It's true!!」

I haven't said anything but……

「Umm, even if you pass it over to an acquaintance, please keep it a secret.」

「Yes, of course.」

The president and the director put away the bottles of medicine in a bag cheerfully.

「By the way, Maruyama-kun,

Did your imouto drink the one for the chest?」

「Yeah, I think there's no need for her to drink but

it's an earnest request of the person herself.」

「And, how's the effect?」

「Since she just drank it this morning, so shortly……

Ah, but, I had her send a mail with her thoughts.」

Pikon!

「Oh, it seemed that I've received an e-mail」

The president and the director leaned forward.

「Let see,

First, the drink's effect doesn't seem to appear immediately.」

「T-, That's right.」

「Then, it tastes like a green tea.」

「Hou hou.」

「After that, the way Elena-chan touch- eh?……

Oops, this was an irrelevant content.」

「Umu, the only thing we have understood so far is that it has a green tea flavor……」

The president and the director seem to be concerned at the effect condition of the potion as expected.

When the president had been lost in thought―

I suddenly stood up and said such a thing.

「Then, let's do it this way,

The three of us will gather every day this week and hold a report meeting.

The work's basic is called 『Hou Ren Sou』!」

Both the president and the director agreed toward my suggestion,

and we had decided to hold the『that thingmajig's effect report meeting』 in the entire week.

Hou Ren Sou is very important thing on business. It's an abbreviation of "hōkoku報告, renraku連絡, sōdan相談", which means "report, contact, consultation."
