The first 200 lines.
The management of the restaurant and the debt if I fail...
I'm going to take on everything.
If I tell Dad that and ask him to let me buy the restaurant...
Why don't you ask?
Jun, thank you.
So good!
I don't care what happens, let's do it!
No!
Five years ago, at the security company I Worked at.
I deceived multiple clients
and I served a sentence.
It's for private use today so we're closed.
- Please come again. - Okay.
What's the matter?
Ms Mayumi vanished from her facility.
This is Ms Mayumi. my mother.
My name is Jun Sakurazawa.
Sorry, I mistook you for a customer earlier.
It's okay! I shouldn't have come all of a sudden.
Oh. it's okay! Please continue! I love lively places.
Good night then.
Sorry. I'm leaving.
Mr Kaname, do you know?
She's Shuma's mum.
Wow, what a character!
Are you okay, Jun?
Your facility called.
Why did you sneak away?
I've had enough of them.
I haven't gambled in a year and a half,
but they tell me to do this and that and keep art eye on me.
I'm okay already!
Can I stay here fer a while?
I'll leave when I find a job, of course!
You don't want me to continue to stay here, right?
You can't let girls spend a night here, right?'
You can stay.
Really?
You make me happy.
Thank you!
But promise me a few things.
You must not gamble, do not steal money from the restaurant.
Don't drink the restaurant's wine.
If you break one promise. I'll send you back to the facility.
Okay?
Okay.
I promise.
Okay.
Hey, the girl just now...
Are you dating her?
We're dating.
Oh.
Oh?
Oh. I think I've seen it. The gold one you always wear?
Oh. that's the one!
It's my lucky charm that helped me pass Sagara Ceramics' interview.
It probably is on the washroom vanity or in the shower.
Mum.
Have you seen a hair accessory?
It's a gold jaw clip.
No, I haven't.
- You haven't? - No.
I'll go and look for it. have a seat and wait.
Wait...
Come in! We've got tea, have some.
Oh, thank you. I'll come in. then.
Thank you.
Thanks for taking care of Shuma.
Oh, Shuma is the one who has helped me a lot.
He loves taking care of people.
I'd been working all the time.
so since he was little.
He's been skilled at cooking, cleaning and doing laundries.
And he is very handsome, right?
He was popular with older ladies in the neighbourhood.
I can imagine.
- Right? - Yes
Excuse me...
It was like a dormitory in the countryside.
I was living there alone for a long time.
I felt so lonely on my own.
I got fed up with it,
so I'm going to stay here for a while.
Let's be friends.
Okay...
Sorry. Jun. I don't think it's here.
Oh. it isn't? It's okay.
Maybe I was wrong that I forgot it here.
- I'll go. then. - Okay.
Sorry. thanks for looking for it.
- See you! - Okay.
- I'll look for it once more. - Oh. thank you.
I see, so Shuma's mum is a singlé mother.-
Oh, that's why She seemed clingy?
But I wonder why they didn't live together.
Maybe it's better not to go there.
His mum won't be there forever, right?
And you, Arisa? You and Katsumi are so in love right?
Yeah, it's going really well.
- I knew it. - What about Mr Tanabe?
I'm thinking about it.
It doesn't mean I hate him.
You can't cut ties right away?
And you Kyoko? How is it going for you and Mr Kaname?
Actually...
Mr Kaname teaches me cooking at Salut's kitchen twice a week.
He does?
Isn' t it amazing? You made one step forward.
Not at all.
Also,
Since the day of the party.
He's been putting distance between us.
This is a very popular product.
You're going to gain a five percent profit per month for sure.
Yes, this is information that only we have.
This company is going to be listed.
Well, actually. I'm violating the law by telling you this.
But Mr Yamada. you've helped me so much.
Its price will certainly rise.
Thank you. Yes.
Excuse me. is this okay?
Mr Kaname?
Why don't we eat what you've made outside?
Are you okay?
You can't show up in front of people as a chef.
It must be tough for you.
No, I'm free now.
You are free?
When I worked at a security firm,
I was tied down by various things.
I had to fulfil my daily quota.
And didn't want my evaluation to worsen.
So I crossed the line I shouldn't.
I lost sight of everything.
Even the clients in front of me.
Things like money and stocks are abstract concepts.
They're a castle in the air.
But with cooking...
You can see the food.
And you can touch it.
You serve customers the dishes you cook and they're happy.
I felt for the first time in my life that I was actualiy working.
Mr Kaname...
You actually don't want to quit your job at Salut, do you?
There are people who need you at that restaurant.
And I am one of them.
It's a down pour.
Yeah.
I'm back.
Sorry, I'll make dinner now.
Oh!
Isn't he the Chef who came here the other day? Look! This!
"Fujinaka Financial Securities Banker Transformed into A Chef!"
This is Mr Kaname, isn't it”?
Yes?
Oh, have a seat there.
You've read this article. right?
So I need to close the restaurant at once.
- Maybe tomorrow. - Yes
Oh? Why are you so firm suddenly?
Salut has been loved by people in the neighbourhood.
So I don't think the business will be affected right away.
I'm not sure about that.
Isn't it difficult to restore the reputation?
People are harsh nowadays to someone who has made mistakes.
I thought you knew that when you hired Mr Kahame.
I thought he'd fill the gap before I close the restaurant.
And why do you talk so formally today?
Would you let me buy Salut?
You have that kind of money?
Business isn't that easy...
I'll just boost sales.
I'll pay you back from the sales.
So please let me do what I want.
Where's your mum?
She's out now.
Why didn't you tell me?
That's...
Is this why your dad suddenly wants to close the restaurant?
And why Mr Kaname is job hunting?
Why? You should've said sooner!
It's Mr Kaname's personal matter...
But it affects your restaurant!
You cherish this restaurant, so it's your problem too!
You're in a crisis!
You're very angry.
I am angry!
You have too many secrets.
You take on too much and try to solve everything yourself!
What am I here for?
This time too.
I wish I'd learnt it from you, not my smartphone!
Sorry.
So?
What Should I do?
I'll help you.
Tell me anything.
It's around the corner.
And we serve reasonably priced authentic French Cuisine.
It's authentic French Cuisine at 1,500 yen. It's a bargain!
