After giving Nino information about this year's forest school location and asking her to contact the person in charge there, Shinichi angrily sends her away.
At this time, Itsuki just came after the break.
"Asada-kun, let me make some tea. Is there tea and hot water here?"
"The teapot is in the cupboard over there, and the water dispenser also has hot water, just brew it."
"So." Adjusting her glasses, Itsuki nodded slightly at Shinichi, then took out a teapot and started making tea.
Recovering from the serious meeting just now, with renewed vigor on her face, Yotsuba looked at Itsuki's graceful eyes and correct posture while making tea.
"Feels like a real secretary!"
"Itsuki is very serious no matter what she does. I found her reading a book called "Self-Development of a Secretary" today. Maybe in the future she will actually work as the secretary to the president of a large company?" Ichika propped her chin up and chuckled.
Miku looked at Itsuki: "If she wore a suit, she would look like a secretary."
"Unlike us, obviously we all look alike." Yotsuba giggled.
Miku stared at Shinichi, thinking what kind of clothes he would wear would be more flashy and easier to catch her eye...
Armor? Kimono? Santa costume? Loincloth?
The latter is flashy, but only girls with special hobbies will wear it...
While Miku was in wild thought, Itsuki's tea had just finished brewing.
A faint aroma of tea permeated the room, and some people felt refreshed when they smelled it. They don't feel sleepy when they see the heavy documents beside them, and they can start working in this state.
After Itsuki took a sip of her tea, she said to Shinichi.
"Asada-kun, do you have any other kind of tea?"
"No, this is the only thing the school provides." Shinichi looked at the open tea can and sighed.
Sure enough, it's not that he's not good at brewing tea, but the quality of the tea itself makes the tea taste bad. It was different from the one in the Student Council study room, and it was probably a product the school casually bought.
Itsuki put down the cup and said with some hesitation: "Asada-kun, if possible, let me buy some new tea leaves? but I really don't want to drink this tea…"
"Don't worry, I'm using my own money, and it won't touch the funds..."
"No, it's fine." Shinichi stopped her, and flipped through the expense list, "One of the funds allocated was for us to buy a conference room, including stationery, books, tables and chairs, etc. Reported directly public account, no need to pay yourself.
"Can we have a drink too?" Itsuki's eyes lit up, looking excited and impatient.
"Ah, then, remember to buy some black tea for me~" Nino wrote the form without lifting her head.
Before Itsuki could answer, Miku glanced at Nino, and said quietly: "Obviously green tea is delicious… It would be nice if we all drank green tea together, Nino is really troublesome."
Nino raised her rather sharp eyes, and stared at her.
"Green tea is a drink that old women drink, black tea is suitable for us young girls, okay? I think drinking black tea together is the best choice."
"Huh... Nino really is a kid, she doesn't understand the bitterness of green tea at all." Miku sighed and shook her head.
"Hah? You don't understand how good black tea with honey tastes! Why drink bitter when you can drink sweet!" Nino slapped the pen on the table.
"My, my! Calm down, I think everything is delicious..." Seeing the atmosphere between them gradually getting tense, Ichika quickly tidied things up with a smile, "It's a big deal to buy them together, funds should be sufficient, and there's no need to worry about trivial things like That."
"This is no small matter, this is war!" Both of them turned their heads at the same time and said seriously to her.
"Oh..." Ichika twitched the corners of her mouth.
"I think sports drinks are the best drinks!" Yotsuba raised her hands high like a child, and said quickly, "But I think black tea or green tea are both delicious!"
After she finished speaking, she suddenly turned her head and asked Shinichi: "Asada-san, what tea do you think is the best?"
There was silence for a moment.
Like a commander controlling the situation on the battlefield, Yotsuba's words directed the artillery fire directly at Shinichi.
Miku ran up to him, and asked in a soft voice.
"Shinichi~ green tea tastes better than black tea, right?"
Nino also pushed the chair away, stood on the other side of Miku, slapped the table with her hand and brought her face closer and looked at Shinichi.
"Obviously black tea tastes better! Asada, you are a smart person, you should know how to choose!"
Itsuki shouted weakly from a corner: "I think oolong tea is good too..."
It's just that no one paid attention to her.
"It's green tea," Miku said.
"It's black tea!" Nino said.
Eyes from both sides stared at Shinichi.
Seeing such a sight, Ichika took out a candy from her pocket and swallowed it immediately, then patted Yotsuba on the shoulder.
"Yotsuba, try not to ask questions like that in the future, Onee-san doesn't buy much medicine."
Yotsuba was taken aback, and shook her shoulders frantically: "Eh? Drug? Ichika, are you sick? Are you okay?"
Ichika looked away, and smiled with the corner of her mouth.
"Not yet, but if this continues, sooner or later..."
On the other hand, with the urgent look of the girls, Shinichi's cheeks twitched, then he knocked on the table a little harder.
"Stop arguing, just like Ichika said, no matter what kind of tea, just buy it! Who cares whether you like it or not, at most, you can drink one kind of tea a day!"
"Everything... One kind a day..." Miku seemed to have thought of something, her eyes suddenly widened, two blushes appearing on her cheeks.
She lowered her eyes and whispered softly.
"This... Not very good... From an ethical point of view... But, mom said..."
Such thoughts were interrupted by a helplessly soft voice.
"You're right. There's no use arguing about it."
Not hearing what Miku said, Nino back her long hair, turned and left, her expression calm again.
"I bought some stuff and went back to decorate it. This empty place is unsightly… Is it okay to buy anything other than tea and snacks?"
"There are also teacups, for our own use and for guests, sugar and milk balls, if you can..."
Itsuki counted on her fingers. It is true that this small meeting room is well equipped, but the daily necessities are too few and empty. It would make people feel cold and alienated, and they wouldn't want to stay any longer.
Shinichi thought about it, and the Student Council room had also been modified according to the wishes and habits of the president and the others. Although it will only be used for one month, he can also use this conference room as a reference, which may improve work efficiency a little.
The environment will affect efficiency. This point of work is equal to study, and he must pay attention to it.
So, he looked around the entire meeting room and made his final decision.
"Let's get the job done for now, let's make a big purchase. Buy all the things we need at once, so as not to waste time shopping around in the future."
"The meeting will continue. The theme of the meeting was-"Forest School Executive Committee Procurement List of Daily Supplies". If you have any comments, put your hands up and speak up, and go for the weekend!"
The quintuplets looked at each other and smiled.
Maybe because they felt the atmosphere was becoming more active, or maybe because this kind of gathering made people feel interesting, it didn't take long for their lively and lively voices to be heard one after another.
"I want a sleeping pillow~"
"Rejected! Do you want to sleep in the conference room!?"
"Why don't we buy a projection device? We can watch a movie when we're bored."
"Do you think there is a lot of money? Reject!"
"Matcha soda…"
"Vending machine outside, please. Furthermore!"
"Lego!"
"No! Furthermore!"
"I..."
"Itsuki, try not to cook food in the conference room, the meat buns are a bit..."
"I haven't said anything... Woohoo, Ichika, Asada-kun is mocking me as a meat bun monster—"
"Shinichi-kun?"
"Um... Sorry, just go with the mood..."
All in all, this weekend, the six of them decided to go to the nearest department store together to purchase a large amount of conference room supplies.
