an array of heavily made‐up women
　This heavy rain has caused a lot of melting of makeup.

　I'm sorry.........I'm scared!

　That's because!
　Black water dripping from your eyes is running down on the white cheeks far from human skin!?
　They're scared!

"You must have been surprised, Mr. Obajillo,"

　One woman who looks like a representative steps forward.
　Well, that's too surprising to go to the bathroom tonight.

"Your words encouraged us to become so beautiful!"

　I'm not used to it!
　Your destination is quite a long way from there!?

"Your fashion is lost,"
"Maze... yes, we are fashionable dreamers."
"No, I'm lost,"

　So now...
　I've thought a lot about it and worked hard, so I'm satisfied with just that effort, you guys.
　I'm still a beginner, or no, amateur, while I'm drunk with effort.
　It's the first time I've been able to look at the results calmly, and I'm a professional and finally a veteran.

"Well, gentlemen,"

　A ginette stands in front of twenty wet women with a large amount of towels.
　It must be hard to wash after you wipe that makeup off...

"I think it would be nicer if you were more normal."

　Jeanette seems to have thought of it. "I don't have that makeup."
　Jeanette's point is correct, and the women in this Society for the Study of New Street Names are clearly overreacting.
　But...

"You don't have makeup on, do you?"
"What? Yes. I don't really do that."
"Hmm! If you don't even know the fashionable Iroha, can you not speak as you understand!"
``Yes, yes!''

　...I don't have a ear to listen to it.
　Oh, when did you guys find out about the fashionable Iroha?

"If you put on makeup, a woman can be beautiful. Then, the more I put on makeup, the more beautiful I am! As a child can tell, right? I am not mistaken, am I?
"Well, no... well... for now, let's put my wet hair together."

　Jeanette is thrown into a flurry by the crowd.
　As I did so, my eyes were turned to me as if I were looking for help. at the last...

Estella. You, who is a professional who always wears perfect makeup and stands in front of aristocrats, tell me. Too much makeup has the opposite effect."
"What? Oh, yes. Well, I think a little more natural will make everyone more attractive."

　The members of the Society for the Study of New Street Names remain silent when advised by professionals.
　In the end, it's just that you can come out stronger when you feel like you know something and think you know less than you do.
　You'll have to listen to a person of the highest rank who won't be able to complain.

　I thought…

"The lord's makeup is the makeup of the aristocracy, right? Our makeup is the makeup method of the common people born in the 41st district. This is the answer."
"Yes.........."

　Estella turns her face this way with a look of desperation.
　You're weak‐kneed, aren't you? I don't show any strength, especially against women.

　Even so, they are obstinate girls.
　I didn't know Estella was the lord of the manor, but she was prepared to be rude and objected.
　Is it that? It feels like putting on makeup makes me feel different.
　If you do something different than usual, you can get out of your usual feeble self. There are quite a few people like that.
　They were also quiet women who had so far accepted a given situation without complaint.
　That's the very moment we're about to change.
　Change gives a person excitement and exaltation.
　That's why I'm so afraid of being denied... sometimes.

　I don't know what to do.

"Genet, cut the watermelon and bring it to me."
"Watermelon..." Yes. Please wait a moment."

　Handing a large number of towels to members of the Society for the Study of New Street Names, Jeanette retreats into the kitchen.
　There is a delicious watermelon from the ham field.
　We were supposed to cool it down in a well and serve the church kids, but unfortunately it rained so long that the temperature didn't rise, and it was a little too warm to eat watermelon. So I have some of the guys left, so I'll ask them to give it.

"Well, you insist that your opinion is correct and that what we say is wrong, but now I'll tell you how far off the mark it is."

　Like a detective detective's mystery show, I stand diagonally in front of the Society for the Study of New Street Names.

"Thank you for waiting,"

　Jeanette came back with a neat watermelon cut.
　Watermelons on large plates are placed on the table.

"Have you ever eaten it?"
"Well," Sometimes."

　a womanly answer
　For the time being, he seems to know. Well, if you eat here now, you'll see what this guy is all about.

"Well, it's a little chilly, but try it."

　I would like to avoid this cold day because gourd food lowers body temperature, but this suddenly occurred to me. Well, forgive me.

"Wow... sweet,"
"Really. It's better than what I had in the 41st leg."
"I think I can eat as much as I want.""Oh, stop! Just hold it in two mouths."

　Thanks to the efforts of the hamsters, the watermelon seems to be doing well.
　However, this time, the aim is not to simply let people enjoy watermelon.

"By the way, do you know 'salt'?"
"...are you making fun of me?"
"No, no. It's just a confirmation. By the way, what happens to food when you sprinkle salt? Then... answer me, beautiful Maycap."

The woman pointed to me clapping her cheek.
　Answer me for fear of embarrassment. I fuelled him not to bend his navel.

"Well... it's salty,
"Well, that'said he. That's the answer."

I think that if I had looked at a girl with heavy makeup who was happy to say, "I did it," that would look cute if I thought that would look cute.
　I guess it's zombie makeup now because of the heavy coating and heavy rain. What a waste!

"Then I'll give you some information you don't know,"

　That's information they can't possibly know, as neither Magda nor Loretta, nor Jeanette, a cooking professional, nor Bertina, a food demon.

"If you sprinkle salt on the watermelon... it gets sweet!"

　The truth is that this knowledge, which is commonplace in Japan, is surprisingly unknown overseas.
　I've heard of a Japanese who sprinkled salt on watermelon in front of Germans and was asked, "Are you OK with your taste and brain?"
　You don't think that what you know is common all over the world... but you don't know it. "That's the way it is, isn't it?"

　However, what I thought was common sense was just changing places...

"That's not the case, is it?" Are you making fun of me?"
"Sweet! I'm sure it'll be salty if you put salt on it!"
"There's no way it's going to be sweet! I'll go with frogs!"

　He sometimes gives me such a cold stare.

"Well, give it a try," Just like when you exercise as I say and feel 'pretty'."

　After being told so, the women of the Society for the Study of New Street Names crossed their eyes and sprinkled a pinch of salt on the watermelon one by one.
　Then, stick to it. ...masticity.

"'What!'"

　Then, all at once, they loosen their cheeks and let out a sweet voice.

``` `Oh, my!''

　That's right, I see. That's right.

"Why do you sprinkle salt and make it sweet?"
"And it's so sweet."
"Sweet salt? No, that's not the case. It's just too salty."

　It's hard to believe suddenly.
　But I have to believe it because I have experienced it myself.
　women bewildered by the situation

　Meanwhile, Estella was twisting her head in wonder.

"Why do you sprinkle salt on it to make it sweet? Is it a special watermelon?"

　Estella sticks watermelon juice around my mouth and sticks it up to me.
　... Stop it. Don't wipe it with me.

　I'll press the towel at hand against Estella's face and tell her the answer.

"Human tongues have a lot of sensitivity to taste. They are a little too sensitive to be flexible. Sometimes, when you feel more than one flavor at a time, one of the flavors stands out."

　Before the tongue can sense the sweetness of a watermelon, it can sense a slight amount of salt, and in contrast it feels more sweet. That's the contrasting effect of taste.
　Besides sweetness, salt is also known to enhance its flavor. It's called hidden salt, and if you look at the recipe book, you'll find "a pinch of salt" in various dishes.
　Other than that, bitterness and acidity seem to have a contrasting effect, but I've never tried it. I don't understand the point of trying.

"So if you sprinkle salt more and more, watermelon will be sweeter...... maybe, right? According to your theory."
"Well... well, yes.

　Someone's nod sounds like a thunder.
　Salt is salty. Such an obvious knowledge and an incredible phenomenon that I've just learned are probably struggling in my brain.
　Should we overturn common sense or trust common sense?

"This watermelon is yours. Originally, it had elements that make it delicious, and it was like a raw stone."

　Then sprinkle a pinch of salt on the watermelon that no one has ever tasted.

"And here are the fashionable men. "As a result of doing what I told you, it became even more delicious."

　I can say it's the same as the satisfaction and satisfaction I gave them on the day of the event.
　Watermelon sprinkled with salt is synonymous with a successful case created by using technology backed by reliable information.

"And in accordance with what you said earlier, "The more makeup you put on, the more beauty you get..."

　As you speak, you slop the salt you grab onto the cut watermelon.
　A thick white mound forms on the watermelon. Water is sucked in from the bottom to the bottom, and the color is fading.

` -- a 'theoretically it would be' state of self-arrangement.'

　Then, they offer the salty cut watermelon on the plate.

"Now try it," It may be very sweet, you know?"

　In your theory, I tell you behind the scenes that

　The woman, who seemed to be the representative of the group, had been puzzled for some time, but as if to prove her statement, she picked up a watermelon covered in salt-soaked watermelon.

"Whoa!? Spicy! Salty!"
"Well, I suppose so,"

　That's like eating a lump of salt.

"In other words, moderation is the best in everything."
"But watermelon and makeup are different..."
"A third party objectively says, 'That's strange,' is it really okay for you guys to run away because you've worked so hard, and you've got a chance to be fashionable, and you're really okay with that? Is that the end like the salty watermelon that you don't think you're going to eat a second bite?"The women have not refuted.

　My first effort is that it's precious. ...for myself.
　"However, ""I haven't been able to do it as a result of my hard work"" has no effect other than to give me self-satisfaction."

"I'm not ashamed of my failure. Efforts will not go to waste of course.

　Nevertheless, telling a story of confidence in a newcomer simply breaks my heart.
　If you don't do it, tell me, let me do it, and praise me, I'm not going to do it'
　Raising beginners takes a lot of time and guts, doesn't it?

"It is shameful to misrepresent something you don't know and lose the opportunity to learn by dressing up. You guys are just about to bloom. No matter how beautiful the buds are, you might be worried, but let's learn it again honestly."

　From my point of view, it's a pretty lenient response.
　If you don't listen to people, just leave them to rot -- my stance, but this time it's special.
　Anyway...

"I'm on your side,"
"Oba... Mr. Jiro...."

　for we must have them on our side and give them a decent name for the "Street of Beauty!"
　I'll block you from doing so, like "Yasilo Avenue!"
　So, okay? Listen!
　Yeah, just like now, just say yes, yes! Good!

"So it's the name of 'Beauty Street'..."
"`Yes! I'll let 'Yasilo Avenue' decide anything!'"

　No! I don'tisn't it!
　Come on! Why are the kind of people who worship me so much so that they can strangle me the most!? Like Becko, like Yaplock, like these women!
　I think you really don't like me...

"It's about it, boys,"

　Estella puts a stop to the enthusiastic women with a smile.

"I don't agree with the inclusion of individual names in other wards that might be the highlight of the 41 wards in the future. Strange tricks may cause unnecessary trouble."

　It's absolutely true.
　Just setting off fireworks was almost enough to make me the culprit for lack of rain, and just by appearing in the information paper, I was targeted by another world version of Ore Fraud.
　On the day I got my name on a new landmark... I'm sure I'll get into trouble.

"As lord of the Forty-two wards, I can't lend you Jiro. even if only by name."

With a smart wink like, "You know what I mean, right?" he talks to just under 20 women facing each other.
　Oh, Estella! If you keep doing that, you'll get more Tracy stuff. Your fanatical fan. ...Oh, she's a very handsome woman.

"I owe you the name of Mr. Obajillo..."
"I caused trouble to Mr. Obajillo..."
"The lord of the forty-two wards doesn't approve of it..."
"Only by name..."
"I can't lend you Mr. Obajillo... as a lord..."

　The women murmuring in turn took a breath and looked at each other, as if they had made sense.
　and--

"'Mr. Obajillo is the lord's fiance!'"

　It seems that they reached a conclusion the day after tomorrow.

"Whoa, whoa, whoahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!?

　Estella makes a broken clarinet sound. What do you get from Dad?

"Chichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichichich

　Stella tries her best to explain herself, fluttering, shaking her hands.
　But before you do that, do something about that bright red face.
　That kind of face will have the opposite effect.

"But that concern for Mr. Obayashiro,"
"I feel something special! Hey, guys!"
``Well!'
"Now that you mention it, you've been strangely friendly, haven't you?"
``Well!'
`It's impossible that the lord and the people of the domain should be friendly and intimate!'
``Well!'
"Come to think of it! Mr. Obajillo was wiping the lord's mouth with a towel before!"
``I was wiping it!'
"Very gentle hands!"
"With loving eyes!"
`It's like, 'Ah, my mouth is dirty, my cute kitten☆'!'
"Hey, Umaro, Becko! Knock all these women out!"
"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
"I should like to avoid looking directly at myself!"

　women who get carried away with selfish things
　Huh? Woman? You don't need to be respectful, but these guys! They're so stupid! They're so stupid that they've left Tosa dialect a little bit!

　I didn't wipe Estella's mouth in the first place!
　I just pushed a towel!
　It's intimate... ...it's just that he has no reason to hold back!

　Why, that's why women are always associated with love."

"Hey, Estella. Don't take it seriously, like this...
`Don't look at me!'
"Watermelon skin!"

　How many things do you throw at me in your face!?It's sticky!

"Well!? You put what you put on your mouth on your face...?!?"
"Indirect kiss!"
"'Oh! Romantic!'"

　Well... this melon juice is romantic in this city... isn't it only beetles who are happy with it?

"So why, then... give it back to me! My watermelon skin!"

　The skin that's eaten up is simply trash without anyone else... Estella is too weak for this kind of story.
　If you don't show enough leeway to keep calm and pass it away, you'll get hit and do yourself a disservice someday. in communication between lords

"…Yasilo is very easily understood and embarrassed when he is in a position to be played with. Only Magda knows what's wrong."
"No, Magda-tan," That's what Oira knows, too."
"Mr. Jillo is an unexpectedly pure-hearted man."
"If you don't all shut your mouth, you'll have a terrible time."
「…………」
「…………」
「…………」
"...don't do it for me."
"Yes, Mr. Jiro,"
"No, opening your mouth here sounds more like a sign to do it!? You know that Yashiro is a person, right? Is it deliberate?"


　The woman is making a loud noise more loudly than anyone else. All right, I'll punish you later.

"I can't believe Mr. Obayashiro was in such a position..."
"The 41 wards are now developing friendly relations with the 42 wards, and the city is developing for the better."
"I don't mean to be upset by the lord's displeasure..."
"So you guys..."
"'Well, let's give up,'"
"It can't be helped," Because...!"
"'He is the lord's precious man!'"
"All right! I'll give you permission to do 'Yasilo Avenue'! I'll write you a recommendation!"
"Don't lose your mind, lord of fools!"

　Once Estella has blood on her head, her condition accelerates rapidly.
　Isn't it better for you to make a lover? You're too immune.
　Wouldn't it be easy for him to fall if he were approached by a nobleman? ... Oh, he looked as if he had eaten up all the bitterness when he was praised by the lord next door (nobleman).

　Ah... that's mean.
　... well. Why should I be so careful? ...

"Do you mind? I'll deny the strange misunderstanding clearly, for it could lead to the honor of the lord and the unfavorable situation for the Forty-two Wards. I'm not Estella's fiancée, and I don't have such a sweet relationship. I swear to the Spirit that there is no such fact."

　na
　I'll deny you like this, so shut up, ladies.
　So wake up and calm down, Estella.

　...and don't secretly puff your cheeks behind me. Hey, Jeanette.

"We want to make this neighborhood a better place to live. That's how we're fighting together. The reason they seem to get along is probably because they trust each other so much. You can't make such a life-threatening reform unless you're that open."
"...Life, cliff? What's the plan for this "Beauty Street"?

The representative of the Society for the Study of New Street Names rolls his eyes.
　That's right. You risk your life.

"What responsibility do you think I have to take if the reform involving the whole of the 41 wards fails so badly that I cannot see it?"
"Oh......."

　It seems that the reality is finally coming to light, and the members of the Society for the Study of New Street Names turn pale one after another.

"Yes,"

　Still a reddish face, Estella quietly utters her voice with a cough in between, somehow pretending to be clear.

"If the enterprise which I proposed to the lord of another ward bears a great debt, I shall have to make up for it by surrendering my territory."

　You have to be that prepared to change the city.
　It's a common story that you've been developing land indiscriminately and turning it into a ghost town in less than a few years... all over the world.
　Lack of research can lead to people not gathering enough to stop shiver.
　There's no such thing as reform that's promised to succeed.

　Well, in my case, I wouldn't touch anything that I'm not sure would succeed at a very high rate.

　I don't mind that much, but let's shut them up now.
　...just in the name of Estella.
　You know, she's a daughter of a nobleman before marriage. Rumors can be fatal in this case.

"So, I swear, that's not the case. Stop gossiping irresponsibly. Estella is not in a position to get dirty in the world."

　Now that we've come to this point, they won't be able to spread silly gossip.
　Let me make you realize that the responsibility lies with that word.

　Well, Estella always looks dissatisfied when she makes these distancing remarks... ...hey, I guess you just have to follow her. d*mn it!

"...that's all right, Estella,"

　I spoke to him in a low voice and showed that I had no intention of doing anything else... I thought so.

"Huh, hey, um... I know,"

　Why is he still embarrassed?
　The embarrassment may well be over.

"Oh, no, this isn't what I was talking about earlier, but... um...."

　Estella starts apologizing without even listening.
　That attitude is tantamount to saying, "There's something wrong with you."

"No, so, uh... I don't really see Jiro treated me that much like a woman... ...oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,You... you punky girl!
　Your embarrassment is contagious!
　Cool your face right now! Eat watermelon! It will lower your temperature!

"Oh, anyway!"

　Let's shout out loud.
　Yes, at times like this, there's nothing like a loud voice. ...there's nothing wrong with the air.

"The 'Street of Beauty' that will come into being should grow not as I made it, but as a street where you will play a leading role."

　And a part of the profit that comes from that goes into my pocket.
　That's right!
　Royalty, umama.

"That's why we should name it for you and the fashionable girls of the future who will yearn for you."
"Well... We're the main characters... ...that's why."

　Perhaps moved, the representative of the Society for the Thinking of a New Street Name smiled so honestly and brightly that he could see it through thick makeup.

"Well, let's talk again and come up with a candidate for the official name."

　No one opposed the voice of such a representative.
　It smelled a little too bad, but it was necessary for them to be successfully rounded up. That's about right. You're easily swept away, but you're stubborn in strange places.

　Then, wiping wet hair and too thick makeup with a towel, the members of the Society for the Thinking of a New Street have a special meeting around the table.
　Perhaps because of the coldness of the watermelon, corn pottage soup was selling like hot cakes and Jeanette was smiling at the positive girls.

　Next to such a meeting, Umaro was silently absorbed in her work so as not to look at the women, and Estella was looking out of the window, sitting oddly away from me. ... if you're uncomfortable, go home.
　On the other hand, Becko, who was free after his pending request was officially lifted after the rejection of Jiro Avenue, was bored, peeping into the blueprints of Umaro and hitting Estella relatively hard in the ribs, saying things like, "If you don't mind, I'll make you a compact hero?"
　...that's why you're Becko.

　Well, the trend around here is like a kind of joke, and Becko herself probably didn't mean it, I'm sure she did. So, Jeanette. It's not "one of us, if possible." It's a joke. It's an interesting joke in Becko's style. Don't take it seriously. What? So if you really make it, I'll smash it... ...the producer.

"I've got it!"

The representative of the Society for the Study of New Street Names stands up and comes in front of me.
　... Here comes Estella.
　They want to report it.

　an estella who came this way at the beck of hand But... ...can you stop this delicate distance?
　It's because I'm conscious and embarrassed.

"Mr. Obayashiro's words resonated with us!"
"We're the main actors."
"And the fashionable girls of the future!"
"I would like to propose to the lord a name suitable for our street!"
"What's the new name???????"

　Estella chokes.
　Jeanette and Magda are watching with breathless interest.

　A woman born in the forty‐first wards is one of the main characters. the right name for a small 'town' in the city
　It's only a candidate stage, but from Ricardo's appearance, the name decided by the Association for the Study of New Street Names will be adopted as it is.

　Such a noteworthy name will now be announced.


"It's "Great Avenue!"


　Clapping... clapping occurs within the Society for the Study of New Street Names.
　As for Estella... Yes, her cheeks were cramped. I can't see the loose expression on my face as soon as possible.

　Jeanette is... oh, she's smiling.
　I wonder if it's a 'yes' name in terms of Genet...

　And as for Magda...

"...'Nice Avenue'......... its name.........Nice?"

　You seem to like it.
　His sense of taste is unique, isn't it?
　Well, it's from the 41st leg, and even if it's a funny name... I'm not the one to be laughed at... you know, I don't care.

"I can't do this!"
"Yes! I must report to you, lord -- Mr. Ricardo!"
"Let's go, gentlemen!"
"Let's go, gentlemen!"
`Good-bye, everybody at the Yodamari-tei!'

　People of the Society for the Study of New Street Names, who stand up all at once and rush out of the shop.
　What was it, really?

"Well, Estella..."
"No matter what you ask, I don't think you can answer... their sensibilities are kind of... difficult to understand."

　Estella is enduring migraines by squeezing her brows.
　That's strange... I'm getting a headache, too.


　But... I could prevent the abuse of my name, so would you mind?
