Yes, Crustaceans Are Cunning – Part 04

Mihara chose…

“100,000 yen.”

Cash? Seriously? Out of all that stuff, she picked money?

Keep it down! The moms playing volleyball were staring at us. It was embarrassing. And why was he talking like that? It was annoying. Well, Orito was always annoying, but still.

You picked a prize, challenged Orito, and if you won, you got it. Simple enough.

But if you lost, you didn’t get your 1,000 yen back. You kept paying entry fees, and if you never won, you just kept losing money. That’s how Mihara got her money taken.

In that case, this was easy. All we had to do was win.

And by we, I meant me.
