This is Kita's pet project. Grown over two years, from his single farm booth to an entire festival. Though the effort of many, his stall is the heart. Everyone flows through here. Whether they need directions or apple bushels or just some fresh berries, he is ready.

Things have always been best when there is a system.

He's caught up this flow when a father begins apologizing. Distraught over his child's criminal activities. Then comes Inarizaki.

For a moment Kita reels. He isn't famous. Doesn't get picked out of a crowd like other former members. At last, he manages to splutter out a response.

"Um - Yes, that was my school! Did you go?"
