Track 1

…Chief. The color-proofed samples for the Tour Brochures have arrived. If it isn’t much trouble, can you look it over just to make sure it looks fine?

Thank you very much! …Oh?

What’s wrong?

Ah, it’s nothing. It looks like there’s a sticker on the corner of this folder…? This is something you get from purikura¹ machines, right?

……Is she serious?

Sorry about that, that's my sister’s doing. She must have stuck it on the folder without permission when I took it home.

Ahaha, I see. What a cute prank.

We’ve made a comeback~!

Master, we have returned.

Welcome back, both of you.

Chiefy, Lii-san~ Lookie lookie, Kinyari and I took some suuuuper cute puri-stickers☆ Want a piece or nah?

…Not you too.

P-Purr–oblem?

Oh, speak of the devil! Let me see.

...…Ah, you two took shots wearing school uniforms as a theme?

Reaaaal fetch, right~♪? School uniforms are totes the trend for purikura these days! Then, Chii thought, might as well go with the flow, yeah☆? Which also means, I gotta take Kinyari along for some pics~

Aren’t these Asu High’s uniforms?

Isotake-sama and Kurama-sama lent us theirs.

Actually, I’ve been like, secretly crazy for Asu High’s uniforms. I was for real stoked ‘bout getting to wear ‘em♪

I see. So that’s the reason for it.

In addition, I have a query. About what Master said earlier, why is our arrival “just in time” for the topic at hand?

Right. Actually, Liguang-san and I were talking just before the two of you came back. Seems like Linxing-san used one of those stickers on a folder… See?

Eh~? It’s so cutieful! The lil doodles are like, super stylish! That’s Linlin for ya♪

Why would she put the sticker on her older brother’s file, I wonder?

Really, that’s what I want to know, too.

Isn’t the answer quite obvi?! She just wanted to share her happy memories while takin’ this ultra adorbs puri-sticker with Lii-san☆

Sharing happiness?

True, you can feel it just by looking at the photo. Maybe it really is a way of sharing happiness.

So it’s possible to share one’s happiness by distributing their best photos to others. …I have recorded it in my memory bank.

It’s noooot the same, but tradin’ puri-stickers with each other also do that, too♪

…Still not a good reason to put it on other people’s belongings without permission.

Yes, yes… But now that I think about it, puri-sticker exchanges sure take me back, huh.

You’ve experienced it too, Master?

It was pretty popular back when I was still a student. Whenever I went to the arcade after school, the place was overflowing with other kids in their uniforms taking pictures in the booths.

So, puri-stickers have been the thing since forever! Whoever invented it is for reals a genius~

It appears that the youth are the main reason for its periodic surge in popularity. It has been trending on dazzle recently as well.

…As you can see here, the puri-stickers I took with Chihiro have now passed 100,000 impressions within a few minutes of uploading. The number of ‘likes’ is also increasing rapidly. Lots of happiness is being shared at this moment.

Woah, FR?! It’s makin’ lots of numbers! The sharing happiness project’s a total W!

Ahaha, looks like you’re having fun. This really reminds me of my high school days.

…………

(Alright. Since tomorrow’s a day off, staying up a little late’s fine, no~? Guess I can brew up some tea…)

So you were here, Master.

Is something the matter, Kinari-kun?

Yes. There is something I’d like to discuss with you.

(He looks so serious…I wonder what’s with him.)

If I recall, you have nothing arranged for tomorrow. Is this information accurate?

Y-Yeah.

Understood, then...

Would you like to accompany me to take school uniform-coord puri-stickers?
