"I told you not to drink it."
Kobayashi Rindo said somewhat angrily.
"Haha, sorry."
Yukihira Soma laughed, "But it's quite tasty."
"Senior Kobayashi, is this really your Kuchikamizake?"
Erina Nakiri couldn't help but ask.
"No, this is Kuchikamizake made by the Gaoshan tribe."
Kobayashi Rindo said.
"Is that so? Are there any special rules?"
Yukihira Soma took several more sips. He found it sweet and sour, especially that faint stinky smell, which had a very unique flavor, just like stinky tofu, becoming more fragrant the more he drank.
"Oh, their method is made by old women who have already gone through menopause chewing rice."
Kobayashi Rindo explained.
Upon hearing Kobayashi Rindo's words, Yukihira Soma's expression immediately froze.
"Can I use the kitchen for a moment?"
Thinking that he had drunk so much saliva from old women, Yukihira Soma rushed directly into the kitchen, seemingly to vomit.
"Wasn't he drinking happily just now?"
Yuki Yoshino was a bit speechless.
Satou and the others also had sympathetic expressions; so much saliva from old women, just thinking about it made them feel a surge of revulsion.
"Hey, Yukihira-kun, I'll give you this bottle of wine."
Kobayashi Rindo shouted loudly towards the 003 kitchen.
"I don't want it... Ugh, ugh."
Yukihira Soma's despairing voice came from inside the kitchen.
"Kuchikamizake varies from place to place. For example, in some places, pregnant women make it and invite everyone to taste it after the child is born. Yukihira-kun really is something."
Erina Nakiri shook her head and said.
"Hey, hey, little junior, how about I exchange my wine for yours?"
Kobayashi Rindo leaned in, rubbing her ample bosom against Satou's body.
Satou was immediately speechless and said, "Forget it, I don't want that kind of wine."
"It's Senior's Kuchikamizake, you know."
Kobayashi Rindo said in a seductive tone.
"Eh? Senior Kobayashi's Kuchikamizake?"
Tadokoro Megumi was startled.
"When I went to the Gaoshan tribe, I found it very interesting, so I tried to make some myself. It should be fermented by now, right?"
Kobayashi Rindo nodded, then continued to tempt Satou, "How about it, little junior? This is Senior's Kuchikamizake, you know. Every sip is personally chewed by Senior."
Facing this somewhat lewd Senior, Satou felt helpless.
"How can this be! Senior Kobayashi, you are too shameless!"
Erina Nakiri's cheeks flushed red, and she cried out indignantly.
"Eh? Little Erina, didn't you just say that customs vary from place to place? Why does it become shameless when it's me?"
Kobayashi Rindo couldn't help but ask.
"Uh... Anyway! Satou, you cannot drink Senior Kobayashi's Kuchikamizake!"
Erina Nakiri cried out, her face red.
What's the difference between this and an indirect kiss?
Satou couldn't help but feel speechless; he hadn't said he wanted to drink it.
"Alright, I'll give some wine to Senior."
Finally, he could only say helplessly.
"Really? As expected of my little junior!"
Kobayashi Rindo immediately became happy, directly hugging Satou into her embrace, her two soft, plump masses rubbing against his face.
Feeling the surging waves on his face, Satou was almost suffocated.
Next, Satou poured a bottle of fruit wine for Kobayashi Rindo, "This wine has a higher alcohol content, so be careful when drinking it."
"Thank you, little junior!"
Kobayashi Rindo grinned, revealing her two pointed canine teeth, then opened the bottle and took a deep breath, "What a wonderful wine aroma."
"But Senior Kobayashi, you're still underage, how did you bring these wines in?"
Erina Nakiri couldn't help but say.
"Hmph hmph! Senior, I'm already an adult! Just yesterday!"
Kobayashi Rindo proudly puffed out her ample bosom and said.
"Eh? So, Senior is already eighteen?"
Tadokoro Megumi asked in surprise.
"Mm! I'm already an adult!"
Kobayashi Rindo said happily, "I can live an adult's life now, you know."
Satou glanced at her bosom and said, "Indeed, very mature already."
"Oh, right."
Kobayashi Rindo rummaged through her bottles and jars, "This is for you, as a thank you gift."
Satou took it with some doubt and said, "What kind of wine is this? Is it the Gaoshan tribe wine that Yukihira drank?"
Yukihira Soma, who had just walked out, heard this and ran back into the kitchen to vomit again.
"This is ordinary rice wine!"
Kobayashi Rindo said irritably.
"Alright."
Satou thought for a moment, put it away, and then gave her some more sashimi.
Anyway, he couldn't finish it all himself.
"Thank you, little junior."
Kobayashi Rindo smiled very happily, revealing her two pointed canine teeth, then she lowered her head and gently kissed Satou's cheek.
"This is Senior Kobayashi's return gift."
She winked at Satou.
"Senior Kobayashi!"
Erina Nakiri cried out in exasperation.
Kobayashi Rindo smiled a little mischievously, took the newly acquired ingredients, and left contentedly.
After drinking such a strong-flavored alcohol, Yukihira Soma really wanted to go back and sleep, telling himself that it was all a nightmare.
Tadokoro Megumi and the others also left.
Satou remembered the rice wine Kobayashi Rindo had given him, poured out a little; it was white, transparent, a bit cloudy, and emitted a faint aroma of rice.
"Erina, do you want to drink rice wine?"
He asked.
"Forget it."
Erina Nakiri frowned, clearly holding a grudge about Kobayashi Rindo's kiss just now.
Satou shrugged, took a sip, the taste was sweet and sour, with a faint rice aroma, and also a hint of subtle sweetness.
"It tastes good."
Satou nodded, although it couldn't compare to his own fruit wine, it had a unique sweet flavor.
...
Kobayashi Rindo, who had just acquired new ingredients, was in a good mood, humming a tune as she walked down the road.
After returning to her residence, she placed the items in her hand on the table, then began to organize the wines she had brought.
"My bottle of kuchikamizake should be almost fermented, right?"
She muttered to herself as she searched.
But after searching for a long time, she couldn't find it.
"Huh? How could it not be here? Could it be... did I accidentally give it to Satou just now?"
A blush suddenly appeared on Kobayashi Rindo's face.
Although she had said before that she wanted to exchange with Satou, that was just talk; she had never thought of giving it to anyone, intending to keep it for herself.
Thinking that her kuchikamizake might now be being drunk by Satou, a rare look of shy embarrassment appeared on Kobayashi Rindo's face.
"Isn't this equivalent to... an indirect French kiss between Satou and me?"
She covered her face, feeling her cheeks burning hot.
