| Manager | Now then, let’s do an old maid tournament! |
| Izumi | Why do they have to battle to deepen their friendships…? |
| Banri | He just wanted to do it, didn’t he? |
| Manager | Having competitions between troupes is a tradition of Mankai Company! |
| First, I’ll choose a representative from each troupe, and then we’ll do five rounds. |
| First place will win you 2 points for your troupe, and second place will win you 1 point. We’ll add all the points in the end and the troupe with the most number of total points wins! |
| Then, let’s start! Round 1! |
| Spring Troupe, Usui Masumi! Summer Troupe, Rurikawa Yuki! Autumn Troupe, Hyodo Juza! Winter Troupe, Takato Tasuku! Candidates, please step forward! |
| Sakuya | Do your best, Masumi-kun! |
| Citron | Fight on! |
| Tsuzuru | You’re good at making a poker face, so you have an advantage. |
| Masumi | …I don’t know the rules. |
| Sakuya | What!? |
| Tsuzuru | That’s out of the question! |
| Itaru | One, get rid of the cards with the same number. Two, don’t get the Joker. |
| Masumi | …Got it. |
| Kazunari | Yuki, fight! |
| Muku | Do your best, Yuki-kun! |
| Yuki | It’s just old maid. |
| Tenma | So dumb. |
| Manager | The losing troupe will be tasked with toilet cleaning and bath cleaning! |
| Yuki | …I’ll win. |
| Tenma | Crush them. |
| Misumi | Do your best~! |
| Banri | Hey, you better win. |
| Juza | That goes without saying. |
| Sakyo | Be careful so that nothing shows on your face. |
| Juza | ‘Kay. |
| Taichi | Fight! |
| Omi | Do your best. |
| Tasuku | How many years has it been since I last played old maid? |
| Tsumugi | We played it during our high school field trip. You unexpectedly have bad luck and you keep getting the Joker at first, so be careful. |
| Azuma | …Being careful wouldn’t do anything for that, would it? |
| Homare | Hm, that is true. |
| Hisoka | …Toilet cleaning. |
| Tasuku | That’s the one thing I want to avoid. |
| |
| Juza | Guh. |
| Banri | The hell are you doing, Hyodo! |
| Yuki | The template delinquent raises his brows when he gets the Joker. |
| Masumi | I don’t really get it, but I won. |
| Itaru | GJ. |
| Tasuku | Sorry, I didn’t win. |
| Azuma | Third place, huh. That was close. |
| Homare | Entrust vengeance to me! |
| Izumi | (Somehow, everyone’s getting heated up. I guess this certainly is a good way to deepen friendships.) |
| (Hm? Hisoka-san isn’t here…? Where did he go?) |
| |
| Hisoka | … |
| Izumi | (Oh, there he is. Maybe he fell asleep on the way to the toilet.) |
| Hisoka | … |
| Izumi | (I’ll try scaring him from behind…) |
| Hisoka | … |
| Izumi | (Gently…) |
| Hisoka | ―― |
| Izumi | !? |
| Hisoka | …Who are you. |
| Izumi | …W-what!? |
| (Just now, he instantly had my hands pinned behind my back? It was so fast I couldn’t tell what was what…) |
| Hisoka | Oh, it’s just the Director… |
| Izumi | Y-you scared me… |
| Hisoka | …Don’t stand behind me. |
| Izumi | (What was up with those moves… They weren’t normal.) |
| (Just who is Hisoka-san…) |
