"Oh yes, I’ve been meaning to ask you, Aaron. How is that reservation system you built supposed to work? We simply walked right in today," he asked.
"That’s because they were disabled for today. However, if you look at the entrance, you can see that there are actually two doors. The inner doors only open after a guest has confirmed their reservation with the scanner and cameras," said Aaron, gesturing to the entrance.
"And how do I make a reservation?" asked Kazuya, his eyes narrowing.
"Scan the QR code on the menu for now, and it will take you to the reservation page. The same code is displayed outside the cafe," said Aaron, watching as Kazuya pulled out his phone and scanned the code.
"A 40,000 yen monthly membership fee and a valid photo ID! That’s a bold deterrent," chuckled Kazuya, as he looked through the reservation page.
"Combined with the security measures, it should keep out the riff-raff," said Aaron, as Shizuku returned with their main courses.
"Here you are, Masters and Mistresses. Your meals," she said, bowing politely, and placing the dishes in front of them.
"Oh, these look delicious!" said Margaret, as she picked up her fork and knife.
"Thank you, Mistress Margaret. Please enjoy," said Shizuku, as she stepped back to let them eat.
"Aaron, I’ve actually got a bone to pick with you," said Friedrich, as he set down his chopsticks.
"What’s that?" asked Aaron, as he wiped his mouth with a napkin.
