Well, that was it.  Banri himself understood it too.

When all his friends turned out to give him such an enthusiastic welcome upon his return, he didn't, of course, jump to any silly conclusions.  He didn't start thinking, "Wait, am I actually that popular?  Could it be that I'm some kind of beloved figure?  Were they all so desperate to see me that every second counted?  Wow, I'm flattered!" ...No, he certainly didn't fall for any such delusion.

He knew as much.  Half of this welcome was just for the fun of it.

Wasn't Banri come home after a while?  Wasn't today the last day of summer vacation?  Well then, why don't we get together?  We've got some free time, so shall we grab a bite to eat?  Where to meet up?  Well, how about in front of Banri's place?  Around when Banri arrives?  Well then, see you there!  ...That sort of thing.  You could even call it an excuse to hang out aimlessly.  It was probably only Kouko who came out with a 100% pure focus on seeing him.

Naturally, the emotional reunion, the warm welcome and the flurry of hugs, the whole "Welcome back, Tada Banri-kun!" atmosphere, couldn't possibly last for very long.

"It had to be by chance!  You moron!"

The cold jeering was from Two Dimensions.  'So I'm really back, eh?'  He thought, savoring his return to his normal, everyday routine.

"But..."

"No buts!"

Behind the infuriated Two Dimensions, his stylish glasses glinting, Chinami held two bread rolls up to her mouth, angled like an upside-down 'V', struck a strangely sharp, intense pose, and said, "Speaking of &#39;''demo'' (but)', well, who might I be?"  That... what?  Who?  A moustache...?  Speaking of &#39;''demo''&#39;, a moustache and that intense look...?  Kouko raised one hand, "Got it!"  "''Demo'', democracy, and then a moustache, it's got to be <span class="plainlinks">[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itagaki_Taisuke Itadaki Taisuke]</span>."  "Kaga-san, you're right!"  "Yay!"  What kind of game was that?

"Hey, what're you looking at, Banri!?  Weren't you listening to me!?"

"Ah, well, but I..."

"No excuses!"

After receiving the two bread rolls from Chinami, it was Kouko's turn.  She placed the two rolls cross-wise against her forehead.  "If I said &#39;''datte''&#39;, then who am I?" she asked, winking with one eye.  Yanagisawa replied instantly, "Oh!  I've got it!  Aren't you <span class="plainlinks">[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_Masamune Date Matsumune]</span>?"  "Mitsuo, you got it!"  He pumped his fist "Yes!"  "Even though I knew it, that was hard!"  ...Well, the three of them were suddenly having a rather unique kind of lively time together.  "Moving on, the next topic is..."  The three of them glanced over at him in unison, but seriously, what was this all about?  Why was he being asked to provide a topic?
