Nagisa

*sigh*

I call this morning's meeting to order.

If anyone has any news or concerns to share, the floor is open.

Tea Party Member A

Yes, President Nagisa. To start, there was a shootout last evening in the street near a cafe.

Witnesses confirmed that the dispute was over who should get the strawberry on top of a limited-time dessert.

Nagisa

A strawberry...?

Such a conflict over a single strawberry...?

Tea Party Member A

Justice Task Force Vice President Hasumi was off duty, so President Tsurugi was dispatched. She successfully subdued the conflict.

Nagisa

...If it was President Tsurugi, then the Remedial Knights must be busy.

Tea Party Member A

Yeah, so many cans, I mean, students, were squashed that the Remedial Knights provided emergency services through the night.

Nagisa

Duly noted. The Remedial Knights likely exhausted considerable supplies...

Kindly remind the Knights to submit an emergency expense report if they require additional inventory.

Please approach. What is your report?

Tea Party Member B

This is regarding the aforementioned Remedial Knights...

There was an incident where multiple patients fled in hysterics upon observing a medical-grade chainsaw in a treatment kit...

...which led to a complete shutdown of a treatment room.

Nagisa

Ugh... Why are they parading that dreadful thing around...? *sigh*

...For that, please conduct a full inspection of the Remedial Knights's medical equipment.

Now then... Is there anything else?

Tea Party Member C

At 1 AM, multiple witnesses reported seeing a naked student loitering on the main building's rooftop.

Although only a few students spotted them, rumors are spreading that this figure was actually a ghost. We may need to address it.

Nagisa

...

Fufu...

Naked...you say?

In the middle of the night... On the rooftop... Naked...

Are you so...certain it wasn't a phantasm? A ghost?

Tea Party Member C

Miss Nagisa...?

Nagisa

I would indeed...greatly prefer...it to have been a ghost...

Then what could I do? How could I address that? It's out of my hands! Naked! Bare naked hands!

...Heehee.

Heehee... Heeheehee... Heeheeheehee...

Tea Party Member A

Miss Nagisa?!

Tea Party Member B

She's out of it! Girl down!

Tea Party Member C

Knights! You, call in the Remedial Knights! Hurry!

Mika

Nagi collapsed from working too hard?!

Seia

Yes. To be more precise, they diagnosed it as "burnout."

Fortunately, there's no problem with her physical health, but...

...I tried serving her generic iced black tea, poured from a PLASTIC bottle, and she didn't protest at all.

Mika

What? Hold on, this sounds dire!

Seia

Indeed. She was prescribed a mandatory vacation away from work in hopes that rest would restore her mental health.

Mika

"Restore her mental health"...

Would getting some limited-time desserts help? It's strawberry season!

Seia

...Given the meeting notes, that might make things worse.

The number-one priority is getting Nagisa away from work.

She's not going to get any rest as long as she's in school.

Mika

Hmm, so we need to find a place where Nagi can relax...outside of Trinity.

Seia

Yes. I believe that would be for the best.

Mika

Sure...

Outside of Trinity... A place that Nagi might enjoy... Refreshing...

Ah!

Seia

Mika?

Mika

Let's go to Shanhaijing!

Seia

Shanhaijing Academy...? Why?

Mika

There's a famous black tea workshop in the Shanhaijing outskirts!

I heard that if you sign up for a tour, you can participate in taste testing and tea blending!

Nagi likes black tea, and it's creative... I think it might help her feel better!

Seia

...It's been a while since you came up with a logical idea, Mika.

Mika

Hm? What do you mean "it's been a while"?

Seia, just what DO you think of me...?

Seia

I acknowledge that it is a good idea.

Mika

Right? Right?

Then how will we get there...?

I'd avoid public transit. Nagi's exhausted, and we want to keep her away from crowds.

Shall we take a town car from the Tea Party's shared garage?

Seia

Those require a driver and an attendant...

...and those would only remind her of work.

Mika

Hmm, then how about...

Seia

Let's take my scooter.

I have a matching sidecar that will easily accommodate you both.

Mika

Whoa! It's been a long time since I've seen you drive!

Okay! I'll make a reservation at the workshop.

Seia

Yes, thank you, Mika.

Mika

Okay, then let Nagi's refreshment tour...

...begin!
