Seiji took a taxi to a high-class Sakura Island tea café.
The decorations here seemed slightly plainer than the ones at the high-class restaurant owned by the Himiki judging clan. However, the decorations were similarly elegant and seemed quite tasteful.
A female server led Seiji to a private room.
There was nobody inside.
The server asked if he would like to order anything, and Seiji indicated that he didn't. The server then bowed and left Seiji alone.
Seiji looked all around him and enjoyed the view as he sat down on a cushion in front of the table and patiently waited.
He recalled the first time he coincidentally met Yui Haruta at the Grand Spring department store. Seeing her there really shocked him and he felt that meeting her would be really awkward, so he hid in the men's restroom…
Was meeting her there truly a coincidence? Seiji was uncertain. However, he felt that there was no need to know the answer.
