## Synopsis

Kazuki and Rei have come to live with Miri again. They are, however, too preoccupied with Miri on a daily basis to complete their work. So they decide to put Miri to a childcare center. The two had never gone through the nursery school application procedure before, so they employ the skills they learned from their illegal operations to alter the paperwork they submitted to the government office. Despite successfully enrolling her in preschool, they struggle to gather all of their stuff. They sent Miri to childcare dressed in her nicest clothing to prevent embarrassing her - but Miri, who had been looking forward to coming to childcare, is looking glum for some reason...

## Introduction

Kazuki and Rei are both preoccupied with their daily tasks, but Miri is trying to distract them both by ruining the washing, spoiling the food, or flooding the bathroom with bubbles. As the two were resting on the park's side bench, fatigued from Miri who's currently playing at the park's slide, they noticed a Daycare bus and devised an immediate strategy based on it.

## Plot

While looking for a nearby Daycare center on Guugle, Kazuki came across some who informed him they're not accepting new enrollees, they're full, or they should go to the government office first in order to register Miri, making Kazuki furious while Miri is already set because she's eager to attend Daycare.

The three headed to the government office to register Miri with the Childcare Department, which is located on the fourth floor. When they arrived, the queue was still serving numbers 103 and 116, yet the number they obtained was #142. As they reached at the counter, Kazuki appeared fatigued as he spoke with the Childcare Department Staff about several formalities, including paperwork and screening, in order to officially register Miri.

Despite Kazuki is having difficulty envisioning how he would meet the paperwork requirements imposed by the Childcare Department, he decided to fabricate it out since he is skilled at cracking the system and simply forged out all of the documents. After completing everything, he opted to submit it the following day with Miri and Rei, as well as the paperwork were eventually sealed, indicating that Miri is now legally registered with the Childcare Department and may be enrolled in their chosen Daycare Centers.

Yumeboshi Daycare is their first option of Daycare. While it was a failure during the teacher-parent interview because Miri tried to interject with some facts about the nature of their profession, making Kazuki furious, As they were leaving the facility, Kazuki instructed Miri to let the grownups do the talking and simply remark "Just what Papa said!" whenever they asked her any questions.

After some time, they moved on to the next option, the Aozora Daycare. They were finally accepted after being interviewed by Anna Hanyu, Aozora Daycare staff, and the daycare Principal, which made Miri, Kazuki, and Rei so delighted that they exchanged high-fives.

While Kazuki and Rei were celebrating Miri's Daycare approval for an energy drink, they were browsing through the Daycare's handbook for a list of items that needed to be purchased. They proceeded to Takhashiya Mall to get everything they needed, including some expensive outfits for Miri to leave a good impression on her classmates. They returned home fatigued but satisfied by the store after completing their purchase. While reviewing the handbook, Rei noted that it said that they were required to write Miri's name on all of the goods they purchased, including her toothbrush and several essential utensils, which infuriated Kazuki once again although he still did it with Rei who had fallen asleep.

They came to Aozora Daycare the following day dolled up, Rei in a white suit, Kazuki in a red tux, and Miri in a very expensive lovely outfit. They were welcomed by the glances of the parents of the Daycare students as they entered the school grounds while being greeted by Anna Hanyu. While the parents, mostly women, greeted them, as they quickly turned to their phones to text each other some messages about Rei and Kazuki, referring to them as "two hot papas" on what appeared to be their groupchat. After few greetings, Anna then allowed Kazuki and Rei, together with Miri, explore the school premises to observe all of the equipment and facilities that Miri would be using starting today.

Miri began approaching the pupils at the school to play. However, the majority of the children appear to be avoiding her overtures, as they all play together, separating Miri. That manner continued for a few days, making Miri appear depressed every time Kazuki went to pick her from school. He then decides to monitor her in her class one day, isolating herself from the other pupils while reading a book alone. Anna approached him seeing he's a bit concerned on what is happening to her.

Anna tells Kazuki that Miri's clothes make her stand out too much and recommends a different store with much cheaper clothes. They went to the store the next day and were surprised and excited by how cheap the items were. They all went home satisfied with their purchases. During the conversation, Miri mentioned an outfit she would like to wear tomorrow, to which Kazuki softly nodded and smiled at her excited expression.

The next day, Kazuki sends Miri to school dressed more normally. It is made up of a pale green sweatshirt on the inside and a light blue coat on the outside. He stays for a while to help her make friends by playing soccer, which eventually works. Miri tells him later that afternoon, when he comes to pick her up, that she had a good time.

## Post Credit

Miri was surprised by Rei and Kazuki with her own bedroom, which was lovingly designed to her standards. Miri, who loved it overall, thanks the two while hugging and smiling at them.
