Chapter 44: 44 Episode 42 Rain Sound

Even after dawn, the thick clouds that cover the sky leave the city in darkness; you get the illusion that time has stopped. 　A low, distant thunderbolt was the only sound I could hear. "...let's see,"　With a basket tucked back into his shoulder, he cuts through the woods he has become accustomed to lately. "Oh, brother!"　Two younger brothers are standing at the entrance of the slum, and when they see me, they run up to me. 　These guys are on the lookout. "Oh, how are you doing?""Well, I have nothing to do,""That's a good thing. Peace is the best thing, isn't it?""Well,"　They are the oldest of the siblings, and unlike other siblings, they have a somewhat relaxed atmosphere. They seem to be fourteen years old. They are one of Loretta's younger brothers and sisters. 　It's their job to protect the slums while Loretta goes out to earn money. "Oh! I wish I could go to work too..."　On my way back into the slum, my brother muttered these words. 　These guys look like hamsters in every way. 　... first of all, they won't be able to work unless they improve their position. 　Even if you get a job, it won't last long. There must be friction somewhere. "Yes, I've got the job. Get some dexterous men ready."　hand over a basket on one's shoulder to one's brother "What about this?""It's a net,""A net?""Oops, correction: nets and treasures."　Inside the basket is a net of sea-fishing guilds intertwined with seaweed. 　Seaweed and kelp are intertwined again this time. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 　Plants may be growing rapidly in this world. We can grow a lot of vegetables all year round. 　We're going through the pitfalls and going into the slum. 　Crossing the pit zone, you'll find a row of houses and young brothers and sisters looming out of them. 　That's a tremendous number. 　It's impossible for someone to support them. 　These guys have to do their own work...　For now, we will give lectures on how to remove seaweed entangled in the net, repair the net, and dry the collected seaweed. 　With the same rapidity of understanding, hamsters absorb these techniques. 　I see. I can understand why Womaro is enthusiastic about education. 　These guys are greedy; they want to work more than anyone else. 　... to the point where I feel sorry that I can only do this kind of work. 　Soon after I left the slum, I was about to reach the Yangdalutei, when the sky finally got in a bad mood. 　Large drops of rain have begun to fall. 　The sound of beating rain engulfs the streets. 　The rain wetting me mercilessly forced me to run as fast as I can. 　I stopped worrying about this and that, just ran forward, kicked the puddle, ran into the Yodamari-tei property, and found two stalls standing quietly in front of the store. 　For a moment... I felt my heart fluttering. "... d*mn it,"　Looking away, I opened the door of the Yangdari-tei. "I'm sorry Jeanette, towel...""Welcome home, master,"　It was Natalia who greeted me with such words. 　Besides... what on earth is he thinking... ...there was this writing on the chest of Natalia's clothes. Yodamari-tei Main Store　　It's cheap! It's delicious! It's cute!　　Stir-fried vegetables 20Rb~!!　　　It's open in 42 wards!!　　open all year round　　If you don't come, it's a loss! Please invite your friends and family to come!　...what are you wearing?"...what? You look funny... oh, excuse me, you look strange."`Isn't it more rude to say it again!'"Was my greeting wrong?""Before you say hello, you're doing something wrong.　Why are you here in the first place?"I remember the clothes your daughter lent me before. I asked the manager to lend me some.""Did you want to try it on?""No... that's not the case."　Natalia's hand grips me by the shoulder. 　My white, thin fingers are slipping into my shoulders. ... Ouch, ouch!"It's obviously a man's thing, isn't it? And there's only one man in this store, right? Yes, you are.""...what? Am I getting in trouble?""At that time, I stopped thinking about strange words, but... ...that I should wear this dress to my daughter?""Scary, scary, scary! That's what Estella had to do at that time! It's better than catching a cold!""After that, these clothes were returned.........smelling Gimashitayone?""Smell! What pervert?""I just sniffed it!""You're not sniffing!""Unfortunately, it didn't smell like a lady, it only smelled like yours.""You don't remember it on your own,"　What's wrong with you? What the heck are you doing?　I thought I'd run him right back, but..."...here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here,　On closer inspection, Natalia looked somewhat dull and her face was a little red. "Do you happen to have a cold?""It's just my imagination.""Well, are you excited to wear my clothes?""I have a cold. I've been feeling a little sick since this morning. Don't make a false accusation to violate people's dignity."　Are you sure you have a cold? You're talking too much. I get hurt sometimes, too? Don't forget that. "Oh, Mr. Jiro. It was just right."　With a medicine box, Jeanette comes out of the kitchen. "I'm a little worried about which medicine to give you... Mr. Yashiro, can you check it out for me?""Oh, medicine?""Your daughter asked me to get it... but she didn't ask me again and again that I don't have to worry."　The Yodamari-tei has all kinds of medicine left behind by Regina. 　Estella probably sent in Natalia because she knew it. "Wasn't it raining?""Just a little. But I'm going home wearing this today, so it's all right.""... those are my clothes?""It's all right. I can stand it.""No... it's not your emotional matter... well, it's all right."　It seems that I've taken a strange liking to it. 　If you make a letter T-shirt, it might sell well. "Did you feel sick yesterday when you helped me yesterday?"　The mantis man entangled me, and I almost wielded my sword. 　If Natalia hadn't turned up then, I wouldn't be here now. 　Was he sick at that time too?"Well... a little bit.""I had no idea,""I was only able to do six minutes of my normal strength.""...are you a fool?"　Six minutes... I don't want to imagine what it would be like if he did his best. "Then sit down. I'll see you."　Natalia sits on a chair, hands on her forehead, thin, soft hair touching the back of her hand, tickling. "...what do you copy?""I'm looking at the fever.""I don't have a fever.""No, there is, for sure,"　I don't have a thermometer, so I don't know for certain, but I think I have a slight fever. "I think I need an antipyretic,""I don't need an antifebrile, so please give me a disinfectant.""I'll throw you out in the rain, Conoyaro,"　Natalia has a cool face and a hateful tongue, but she still looks dull. She doesn't have the usual sharpness in her eyes. 　Put your hand on your cheek and push down your lower eyelid. If this area, where the capillaries are so dense, becomes whitish, you're at risk of anemia. ... Are you all right for now? You're eating something good, aren't you? "...what do you copy?""Don't ask me everything. It's meaningful, so be patient.""I thought you were going to kiss me because I touched my cheek.""Are you going to!"　It's an outrageous accusation. 　But I heard a reaction to the accusation from my side. "You're not going to do it, are you?" ... I'm glad."　It's Jeanette. 　What is this guy thinking? He stares into Jeanette's face dumbfounded. "...uh...uh!?Oh, well, that's not what I mean, but I'm afraid I shouldn't do that to my customers. Uh, uh..."All right! Don't make a fuss and sit down for a second.""Yes... I'm sorry,"　Apparently Jeanette was thinking the same as Natalia. 　Can't you bear the treatment of kissing a sick person and saying, "I've given you your cold?" 　Also, I don't want to catch a cold. "Then open your mouth a little,""...Deepki...""I don't know! I see if my throat is swollen! Just stick out your tongue and say 'ah.'""...."　You may be honest. 　Apparently, my tonsils were red and swollen. 　This will make it difficult to swallow my saliva. "You had tea, didn't you? Dilute the tea you made in boiling water, make it lukewarm, and gargle.""For tea?""It's sterilizing."　Tea is famous for its sterilizing properties, but tea Theaflavin has even more potent sterilizing properties. 　I don't think there's anything like "a rattling iodine solution after the present," so tea gargling is the best choice."Regina's medicine didn't have any general medicines... do you want me to bring you some antipyretics?""No. Just telling me how to treat it is enough.""No, don't take your medicine.""I'm a servant who serves my daughter. She can't use expensive things like medicine for personal reasons.""No, the medicine is for basic, personal use only."　I use it personally when an individual gets sick. "I came here just in case your daughter was exaggerated. Thank you for your concern.""Regina's medicine is not so expensive, so get it.""It's all right,"　You... you'really stubborn. "In the first place, it was Estella who wanted to spread Regina's medicine. She even went out of her way to get rid of her distrust of Regina. If you use it to spread the effectiveness and convenience of this medicine, it would be in line with Estella's intentions."　All you have to do is cooperate with your master. 　Natalia looked surprised when she said such a thing like that. "I'm surprised to see you think so much for your daughter...""No, for Estella's sake... just take your medicine.""Well... shall I have some medicine for my throat?""Any antipyretic?""The fever is really nothing. It wouldn't be a good idea to rely too much on drugs."　Well, is that so? 　Too much medicine may make you sleepy, though I don't know if Regina's medicine contains antihistamines. "Ginnette, bring me some medicine for my throat. Bring me some lukewarm water. Oh, and something else to put in my stomach.""Yes! I'm home,"　Jeanette flaps into the kitchen. "It's perfect,""Oh, this is part of my business. Don't worry.""Business? I hear that no margin is included in the price of the medicine?""If the drug's reputation goes up, people will come here looking for it, because it's better to be as cheap as possible, so we don't make a margin, but there's also the benefit of customers coming here.""Are there people who don't buy anything."More than eighty percent,""... why, then?""The resistance you feel when you enter 'a place you've never been to' and 'a place you've been to' is quite amazing."　Even privately run restaurants try to attract customers to their restaurants at any rate with a blistering service that doesn't pay much attention to profit, like holding events where you can sample wine or sample food in conjunction with restaurants in the same area. 　It would be great if you could come all the way to the store. 　Otherwise, it would be better if you could only know the product and the name of the shop at the product exhibition. 　Anyway, it's very important to remember your name. "It certainly took me a lot of courage to get into Mr. Regina's.""There's nothing suspicious,""That's a good expression, but we really wanted to make sure that the people of our territory could use it with peace of mind.""And you went to see Regina,""Yes, just...."　Natalia's expression clouded, perhaps because she remembered that time. "As soon as the owner came out, he shouted, 'Wow, beautiful boy and cool maid, Kitakore!' and then he said, 'Of course, beautiful boy was developed as an older maid...' and he left the shop and closed the door, and has never approached me since.""That was a wise decision as a servant. You're competent."　...what is that idiot doing? "I don't trust her medicine at all because of this, but... if your daughter is trusted, I have to change my mind.""At first you might have resistance...""No,"　A brief denial interrupted my words, and my direct gaze blocked my words. 　I was waiting for Natalia's next words in the slow passage of time. 　as if it were natural to do so "...you trust me too, don'　Her eyes, as gentle as I had ever seen, showed a glimpse of femininity in Natalia.　I don't know if this is just a natural expression or just a cold, but the gentle smile of Natalia was very feminine and beautiful. "Oh, Regina's medicine works. Your cold will soon go away.""Well, then, I'll trust you."　Natalia looks away from me and turns to the kitchen. 　As I followed my gaze, Jeanette was just about to show up. "Thank you for waiting~"　Nice timing. It's too good to say. 　When I turn around and say exactly... does Natalia mean she knew before Jeanette showed up? Can she read it? Scared me. 　Lukewarm water and cut fruit are on the tray. 　I picked out the medicine from the medicine box that Jeanette had just brought. "...it's a strange.""What?""I take care of your daughter. I can't believe I'm being taken care of like this...""You're telling me to get over my cold as soon as possible, lest I should interfere with your care.""Well... it makes sense, doesn't it? Excuse me."　Natalia carries cut fruit or two into her mouth and picks up the medicine. "If I use the medicine, I will be of service to your daughter, won't I?""Oh, maybe Estella sent you for that."　It shouldn't be a far‐fetched idea. 　But Estella is purely concerned about Natalia. 　Estella's busyness means that Natalia, who is supporting her, had a harder time. 　I don't think you'll leave that kind of person alone. That's the kind of person I think Estella is that kind of guy.Natalia holds the medicine in her hand and gazes at it. 　with a slightly anxious look "Will it please you, will it?""Perhaps,"　I'll answer that lightly. That's about the right amount for Natalia today. 　After a moment of contemplation, Natalia leaned a little towards me and asked me with serious eyes. "...can you praise me?""Hopefully,"　He leaned forward, and finally stood up and approached me, asking me at a very close distance. "Can you sleep with me and squeeze me?""I don't know!"　How far do you want?　I wish I'd get a compliment. 　encourage Natalia to sit down and take her medication "Well, let's have it."　When I sat in the chair, I straightened myself up, put powdered medicine in my mouth, and poured it in lukewarm water. 　Suddenly, he stood up and looked at me with shining eyes. "It's healed!""It works so quickly!""What a wonderful drug! Actually, I was silent, but up until now I was so bitter that I almost died, but as soon as I took this medicine, the pain I had suffered up until now disappeared like a lie!""Because it's a hype! It's out of my country! Or it's a complete lie!""No. It's true that I felt like that. That's how I felt!""How trustworthy is your subjective opinion."Furthermore, I'm lucky enough to have a boyfriend!""Doubles the smell!""""History of not having a boyfriend = for me!"""`I'm not confessing yet another sad fact!'　By the way, Regina's medicine doesn't have any side effects like having a girlfriend... of course. "I'm going to show people how wonderful this medicine is.""Stop it! It's more obvious that there's only a bad reputation than a fire!"　Is this... stupid?"I just want to convey this feeling to everyone...""That's enough, go home and sleep quietly for today, isn't it?""How do you know that my sleeping habits are bad!? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .""I don't know! Go home and sleep!""If you sleep too long, you can get muscle pain.""How long do you move while you're sleeping?""Oh, you slept well,"I guess it's like, "Where are we?""Then I will go back as you say and rest.""Oh, say hello to Estella,"「………………」"Reply! Just say hello!"　Oh, my God, this guy is struggling to decide whether he's good or stupid. "Well, Mr. Natalia, I'll lend you my clothes and umbrella."　Jeanette offered me an umbrella. ... Oh, are you lending me your clothes, too.　Then the noisy visitor left the Yodamari-tei and left in the heavy rain. 　Come on... 　He was so eccentric that he felt quite relieved of his sinking mood. 　You must be thinking too much about pretending to be a freak for this. "...and what are you doing?"　There were two shadows in the kitchen looking over the dining room. 　Magda and Loretta. "...a tough opponent. You should avoid confronting him when you are not feeling well.""Mr. Natalia, I'm a little scared, so let's wait and see."　That's why he seems to have been hiding. 　No, work. 　Well, I don't have any other guests, so I don't mind. 　The rain was getting heavier over time, and in the afternoon it was pouring like a bucket had been turned upside down. 　Oh, my. I don't think we'll get any more customers today...　It's often said that the weak are the worst. 　Even though mobile sales have already hit a big wall and profits have fallen...　In the end, none of the guests visited the Yodamari-tei that day. 　The somberness of the clouds covering the sky seems to be infecting the mind. "There are days like this," and to make up for it... it was a day with a little too many negatives. 　I got Loretta home early today. It's raining hard. 　Loretta, pretending to care, persuaded her somewhat forcefully. 　Well, tomorrow, the tide will change again. 　I felt like I had to force myself to do so. 　But let alone change the tide...　The worst disaster of the day came after the store closed -- as I was cleaning up. 　It was the worst news I've seen in days. 　There's a violent knock on the door inside the store. 　Whether you're trying not to be drowned out by the heavy rain, or if you're in a great hurry, it wasn't a simple sound to call a 'knock.' 　I opened the door and found Bertina in a cloak. 　I'm trembling like a wet blanket. 　But the shiver didn't seem to come from the cold. 　look pale 　Bertina, who is always calm, hangs on to me like she's upset. 　My wet hand grabs me by the shoulder. 　Bertina's hands were as cold as ice. "...the children...."　The atmosphere in the dining room was completely changed by that word. 　The blood dries from Jeanette's face and Magda shows tension in her expressionless expression. 　I was myself, and my heart was beating so fast that it was pathetically fast.No one could say anything, just staring at Bertina. 　There's a long wait for the next word that's likely to come. 　It might have been only a brief moment, but it felt very long to me. 　I don't want to hear anything. 　But I want you to tell me soon. 　With such complexity, I stared at the trembling Bertina. "Well, medicine... ...for the children....""Sister,"　Jeanette gently puts her hand on Bertina's hand on my shoulder. 　That alone seemed to bring a touch of blood back to Bertina's face. 　The distraught mind must have regained a little composure. "I'm sorry...""No. So... what happened?"　I could feel Jeanette's hand full of strength. 　I guess Genet is scared to hear that, too. 　But I can't help but ask. 　Bertie slowly begins to explain the situation. "The children fell down. All ten of them in the church. ... High fever, diarrhea and vomiting. ... They're all getting weaker and weaker. ... If things go on like this...""Well...""What about Regina's medicine? Was there a medicine left in the church?"　She forgot her honorifics in a pressing situation, but Bertina didn't blame them, but shook her pale face sideways. "...it didn't work. Even if I gave him medicine, he vomited, he had diarrhea, he had a fever that didn't go down."　Doesn't the medicine work?"Is it an epidemic... or do you have any idea what the cause is?""Yes... Actually...."　What Bertina said afterward was a compilation -- the worst of the last few days. "This heavy rain caused the river to overflow and the canal to collapse, which seems to have caused muddy water and sewage to flow into the well.""Drinking water... contaminated......?"　There was a persistent sound of rain outside the store.
