さすがすぎるぜ！！！
Dialogue in this work
Page 2
- I came with my father to the local hamburger shop for lunch.
- We haven't even gotten water, let alone food...
- ...Hmm, I'll go check it out.
- It's not like it's that bad to complain about.
- It seems like one of the employees hasn't shown up.
- I mean I'm going to help out.
- Really?
- Someone came out from the back to serve, but they seem inexperienced.
- Huh?
- You really noticed that... Even so, helping out is a bit much.
- No worries, I've already memorized the menu.
- Seriously...?

- A few minutes later, my father appeared wearing the shop's uniform.
- May I take your order?
- No way! Does this really happen?
- We're currently offering a limited-time oyster clam chowder.
- This dish is great with cream cheese and avocado toppings.
- We source directly from a fisheries company in Miyagi, so it's exquisite.
- Thank you! I'll get you some water too.
- Oh, then I'll have that too...
- It pairs perfectly with our special smoky bacon! I've been hooked on it myself... haha.
- He's taking orders like crazy.
- Oh... then I'll go with that.
- And what would you like to drink?
- Apparently, the owner begged him to work here.

- Now, my father works at the hamburger shop in addition to the convenience store.
- I saw your resume and noticed you graduated from Teio University. That's impressive...
- Wait, what?
- People are often surprised, but I have a 17-year-old son.
- 56 years old!?
- No way! Are you some kind of ageless beauty!?
- A man!?
- Yes... I lost in a corporate power struggle.
- I was so depressed that I ended up like this.
- Can that really happen!?
Page 6
- Hmm.
- Kitamura... I'm sorry, but this dessert is hurting your business.
- Huh?
- I see...! But how did you know just by looking at the order form?
- In my previous job, I used to review financial statements for each department.
- Even if the cost is in the black, labor and storage costs are higher than others.
- You can see the situation on the ground just by looking at the numbers.
- That's incredible!
- It might work as a draw for customers, but maybe it should be seasonal.
- There was a brief commotion about my father's background, but he was so competent that no one mentioned it again.

- I've been worried for a while, so I finally brought Dad to the hospital.
- Well... regarding the genetic test results...
- From a physiological standpoint, we can confirm you are indeed Mr. Hojo Tatsunobu.
- There are slight discrepancies in your dental records, and changes that could categorize you as "female" are beginning to occur.
- As you mentioned, there are indeed sudden dramatic changes happening to your body.
- Excessive stress might have triggered your immune system to attack your testes and adrenal glands.

- Your internal age is equivalent to that of a 17-year-old... the human body is truly mysterious.
- Is that really something we can just brush off?
- What can we do, really?
- I'll just keep focusing on the tasks at hand, as always.
- What are you going to do from now on?
- I... I see.
- He's as unfazed as ever, it's amazing.
- Hearing the results cleared things up, and I'm a bit relieved that Dad hasn't changed.
Page 11
- The new part-timer I hired recently is insanely competent.
- What's wrong, Kitamura? You look down...
- Well, recently, costs are rising, profits are dropping, and wages are going up.
- But I can't run the place alone.
- Honestly, I feel like closing the shop and getting a job might be better.
- Just the other day, a part-timer quit out of the blue.
- Hmm... well, that's a common issue for small businesses.
- Alright! Leave it to me.
- Huh?
Page 12
- Depending on the analysis, strategies will change whether you run it solo or keep the current setup.
- If you go solo, you might need to focus on takeout and gradually downsize the shop.
- I'm skilled in large-scale operations and strategic planning, so this might be different from what I'm used to.
- Wow, this document is amazing... did you make it yourself?
- Yeah, I did.
- I've never met someone who's so good at that...
- I don't fully understand, but I feel a sense of hope.
Page 14
- The new part-timer I hired recently is insanely competent.
- Kitamura, do you have a dream?
- A dream?
- Another reason is that the meat from my hometown is delicious, and I want everyone to enjoy it.
- Well, I started this burger shop for two reasons.
- I hope to keep the shop running as long as possible and make people happy with the meat...
- One is that I've always loved customer service and wanted to work in food.
- Pretty mundane, huh? (laughs)
- Not mundane at all, it's a wonderful dream.
Page 15
- Making the burger grilling visible from inside and outside the shop!? That could be interesting...!!
- I see!
- Yeah, this way, Kitamura, you'll be able to see the customers' faces, which will be nice.
- Your cooking skills are quite mesmerizing to watch.
- Mr. Hojo! You really are...
- For some reason, when Mr. Hojo is in the kitchen, the number of customers skyrockets.
Page 17
- It seems when Dad ordered from Yamazon, he got something completely different from what he expected.
- Ugh, what is this...!
- Look, Tatsuya, it's nothing like the picture!
- Honestly... I thought I'd spare you the trouble of going out, so I ordered online, and this is what I get.
- I guess you really can't trust the internet.
- Whoa!! Isn't that a total thong!?
Page 18
- But I thought it would arrive today, so I threw away the old ones...
- We'll just have to make do with this for now.
- I can't imagine what kind of person designs underwear like this.
- It's better than you wearing it around!
- Haha! You're right about that.
- Hey! Wait, I'll go get some from Uniqlo!
- Are you sure? You didn't want to last time.
Page 20
- The new part-timer I hired recently is unbelievably competent.
- What should I do... the supplier seems to be out as well.
- The big companies have bought everything up, so we won't have any for a while.
- It's crucial for the secret flavor of our hamburgers.
- If it's not the one from Sri Lanka from that supplier,
- we can't get our signature taste.
Page 21
- Huh? How did you get that!?
- I had it shipped directly from Sri Lanka!
- Wait... how did you manage that!?
- Through old connections, you see, I know a lot of people in Southeast Asia.
- I used to work at a trading company.
- When I was younger, I was stationed in several places in Southeast Asia.
- What!? What did you do in the past!?
- It's not a large amount, so they'll send it regularly.
- Really!? Mr. Hojo, who are you really!?
Page 23
- When I got home from school, Dad was on a call speaking English...
- Dragon...? Didn't Dad just call himself Dragon!?
- Whoa, he sounds like a thug from a foreign drama...
Page 24
- Hmm?
- Well, I said "Ryushin" means a trustworthy dragon, and it stuck as Dragon.
- But that's a story from the past.
- Being known as Dragon in Southeast Asia is so movie-like!
- The part-time job was out of spices, so I had them squeeze some Sri Lankan spices into a container as a favor from the past.
- Hahaha! It was just like a movie, really.
- Wow, I'm so curious!!
- The scale of your shopping is insane!
Page 26
- The part-timer came up with a serious expression and an outlandish suggestion.
- I've been researching the nearby competition,
- and found that there's a gap for those who want a proper dinner...
- It's quite a hook, so it's a gamble, but theoretically, there's demand.
- What is that?
- I've been thinking, how about offering a "curry rice hamburger"?
- The fact that you're suggesting that based on logic is hilarious.
- ...Well, our evening sales are low, so let's try it as a limited-time offer.
Page 27
- Mr. Hojo! We need to make more of that popular item!
- Haha! It's thanks to Kitamura's flexible business decisions!
- Well, sorry... Honestly, I didn't think such a silly idea would sell (sweat).
- I know all too well the difficulty of making those choices.
- But you're different from those stubborn folks at my old workplace.
- You still have that commanding presence... I wonder what happened at your previous job.
- The concept of hamburgers was turned upside down, and sales at night tripled.
Page 29
- It's been a while! I've finally released volume eight.
- Thank you for your support, I'm Neta.
- I moved to Goto, planning to work hard on my drawings.
- But unexpectedly, the local work kept me so busy... You know how it goes.
- Actually, I started a side business with a café and lodging facility.
- My posts went viral, and now I'm swamped with all sorts of things.
- Honestly, I've been working non-stop.
- But everything is refreshing and enjoyable.
- It's called 'Kogareka.' Please visit during summer vacation if you have time!
- I'll be your host and take good care of you, haha.
- Running the café has also influenced my dad's manga quite a bit.
- I'm glad I did it... Anyway, I'll keep trying my best.
- I'd be grateful if you continue to support me!
- See you in volume nine!!
