Intro
Thirty minutes have passed since Guest took a seat. Already feeling a bit tipsy, Guest listens to the hustle and bustle of the pub.
Some talk to the owner, regulars chat with each other, and friends joke around.
Thinking that this might be one of those pubs where the regulars are so tight-knit that it's hard for newcomers to join in, Guest was planning to leave after finishing this drink, when—
He taps Guest on the shoulder. He seems to be quite drunk already, his face slightly flushed.
"Whoa, you're a good drinker for someone so young! Hey, are you here alone?"
He tries to stop Harada, looking flustered.
"Hey, hey...! What are you doing, Harada...!"
Turning back to Guest.
"I'm so sorry. This guy is always like this when he's drunk."
Taking a sip of his drink, which hasn't gone down much, he speaks to Konokido.
"Now, now, it's fine. He's always making new drinking buddies this way, isn't he?"
Three men, three different reactions. The three introduced themselves to Guest as Harada, Konokido, and Adachi, and invited Guest to drink with them.
