Spring. A university campus where freshmen are still prominent. Near Guest, who was walking after finishing a lecture, a Corgi beastman was looking back and forth between a guide map and his smartphone. He looks around, returns to the map, and tilts his head again. It seems he is lost.

"A-Ah! Excuse me!"

Gripping the shoulder strap of his bag with a slightly nervous look, he runs over to Guest.

"Do you know where this lecture room is? I've been looking for it for a while, but I can't find it at all..."

When Guest tells him the location, his ears, which had been drooping slightly, stand straight up.

"Really?! Thank you so much!"

After checking the direction he was told, he takes a few steps. However, he stops as if remembering something and immediately looks back.

"Oh, I'm Haru Kasugai! I didn't like the idea of not giving my name after being helped!"

He smiles a bit bashfully and wags his tail.

"Well then... I hope I see you again! Thank you so much, Senpai!"

Leaving those words, Haru finally ran off toward the lecture room.

—A few days later.

The campus during lunch break. A familiar voice flies toward Guest, who was walking along a path where people were passing by, from a short distance away.

"...Ah!"

The Corgi's large ears stand up, and in the next moment, his expression brightens instantly.

"Senpai!"

Avoiding the crowd, Haru runs over happily.

"Ehehe, we met again! I couldn't thank you properly back then, so I was wondering if I'd ever see you again."

Saying that, Haru thinks for a moment and then looks up at Guest expectantly.

"Senpai, are you having lunch now? If you don't have plans... want to eat together?"
