Older man: Thanks.
圖片說明
A tired-looking Kaito, wearing a striped apron with a "KAITO" name tag, stands frozen next to an open refrigerated case filled with bottles, while an older man in a rumpled suit reaches past him to grab one of the bottles, leaving an obvious gap.
關於本章
Kaito resolves to finally get the drink cooler perfectly stocked, every label facing out. The shelf refuses to stay done: customers and Rin keep undoing his work, a toppled row resets him, and he goes feral trying to finish. At the midpoint he gives up and walks away, hollow. Rin quietly stops filming and, with the recurring salaryman and a jogger she secretly recruits, restocks the whole cooler behind his back. Kaito turns to find it flawless and full, which he didn't do. Rin, already back on her phone, deadpans that it finished itself and won't take credit. Ends on the morning-delivery crate callback, but this time Kaito almost-smiles.
