Title: The best birthday

-CIU First Division-

Shiba: Morning, Tsukasa! And happy birthday ♪

Asagiri: Oh? So you know that it’s my birthday.

Shiba: Of course. Actually, didn’t I wish you a happy birthday first thing in the morning last year as well?

Asagiri: Right, come to think of it……

Sugano: Happy birthday, Tsukasa-san.

Arakida: …… Happy birthday.

Hattori: Happy b’day, Tsukasa.

Asagiri: …… Thank you. I’m grateful for your words.

Shiba: Huh……?

Arakida: You’re strangely being honest with your feelings……

Asagiri: Yes, because I’m in an exceptionally good mood today.

Sugano: Oh, could it be that you were being all lovey-dovey in the morning before coming in?

Asagiri: That’s correct. Rei-san surprised me with a homemade meal.

So I ate her teriyaki chicken pizza before leaving.

And I got her to do up for me this necktie that she gave to me as a present.

In this regard, I came into work after thoroughly being all lovey-dovey.

Sugano: That’s the first time I’ve seen someone so boldly say the words “lovey-dovey”......

Arakida: (So they’re a pair of silly lovebirds……)

Shiba: How nice~ I wonder if Matori-chan will surprise me as well.

Imagine her saying something like, “Good morning, the pizza’s hot and ready ♡”.

Asagiri: Excuse me? I don’t even want you picturing it so could you do me a favor and knock yourself out?

But before that, please return the Rei-san inside your head to me.

Sugano: He’s got his serious face on even though he’s saying something stupid……

Shiba: Ahaha. I was obviously joking.

Or rather, I’m sure that it’ll look like nothing next to Matori-chan’s present but we’ve got something for you too.

Asagiri: What……

Shiba: We’ll start off with me first! Ta-da! MY(™) chopsticks ♡

Use them when you eat your cup noodles at work or whenever ♪

Asagiri: I see…… I’m happy to receive them. Thank you.

Sugano: And from me and Sosei-san, we give to you this MY(™) cup noodle.

It’s the one and only cup noodle in the world that you can create when you visit the Cup Noodle Museum.

Asagiri: ! That’s the much-talked about MY(™) cup noodle……

Sugano: Isn’t our love for you amazing?

We went full-out with carefully choosing the ingredients to try and make it delicious so please treasure it as you eat it.

Hattori: Not that I care, but did you two go out of your way to visit that museum together?

Sugano: Yep. Sosei-san was making a super sour face throughout.

I was having a blast~

Arakida: Hey, that’s an odd way of putting it……

Asagiri: That museum is a place that I’ve also thought about wanting to go to someday.

I will gladly accept this original cup noodle with care. Thank you—Sosei, Natsuki.

Arakida: No…… I’m always in your, well, I’m greatly indebted to you.

Sugano: We’re looking forward to working with you from now on too.

Asagiri: …… Hmph. How adorable it is to have what is called “juniors” at your job.

Shiba: Although they’re a cold bunch towards me…..

Hattori: From me, I’m giving you the okay to take roughly a week’s worth of paid leave after you’ve finalized your current case.

I’ll also relay the situation to Matori’s section chief for you so why not take a trip away once in a while?

Asagiri: …… “Seniors” at the workplace are a wonderful existence.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart, You-san.

Hattori: You’re welcome.

Shiba: Hey, wait a minute, Tsukasa. I’m your senior as well, you know? Aren’t I wonderful?

Asagiri: ……

Shiba: Hello, but that’s a face I’ve often seen you using in the interrogation room!?

Asagiri: I’m kidding. Thank you, everyone. This year’s is truly the best birthday.
