Which animals do wanna go see next, Ichika?
Shiho and Haruka went over to see the rabbits, right?
I already got to see a lot of small animals, so I kind of want to meet some of the bigger ones now.
Then, how about the alpacas?
Oh, that sounds fun.
Not to mention they're right nearby.
Really?!
Then, let's go!
That fence must be for the alpaca area!
There's so many.
They're all different sizes and colors.
And their necks are so long!
Look at that one! It's so fluffy!
Yeah, I've never seen one up close like this before...
We have food for the alpacas here if you wish to feed them!
Oh, a hundred yen per plate! Let's grab a couple!
Okay.
Excuse me. We'd like to feed the alpacas.
Of course. Here you are.
You can feed them through the fence over there.
We're the first ones here!
Hehe. We came at a good time.
Oh, please be careful.
They'll all gather 'round at once for the first feeding.
Huh...?
Whoa, yeah! They're all coming over!
Wait, I'll give you one now... No, one at a time...
W-Wah... They won't stop pushing!
Everyone, please! There's plenty for all of you!
Hang on... I don't think one plate is going to be enough...!
No, you're right! I'm almost out...!
They ran through that so fast!
Mine too... They have such big appetites...
This sign says each person can buy up to three plates... What should we do? Wanna go buy some more?
I think I will...
One plate just wasn't enough.
Yeah... The ones who didn't get any food keep staring at me...
Yeah, they'd probably have us surrounded if it weren't for this fence...
I'm not worried about the confident ones who push their way to the front, but I also want the ones in the back to get their fill.
Me too. Then, why don't we try to evenly distribute the food a little more?
Oh, I'm all for that!
The ones in the front got everything I just had, so I'll try to give everyone some this time!
We'll be right back with more food, you guys!
Whoa, they're all coming at once...
They really do know when we're carrying food.
Wait a second, Ichika...
I know we're trying to distribute the food evenly, but do you remember which ones you already gave food to?
Uhh...
Hang on... I gave some to this white one, and that brown one... I think...?
I lost track too...!
I could've sworn that the black one at the front took basically everything I had...
Oh, I don't think that gray one in the back has had any yet!
Then, let's try feeding him!
Hey, Mr. Gray, we have some food for you!
No, not you guys...
The same ones keep coming back for some reason!
Minori, keep distracting them...!
Come here! Now's your chance!
Nice one, Ichika!
He finally got to eat!
Yeah, and we can use this strategy to feed the others.
Roger! Next, how about that light brown one? I don't think it's had any yet...
The one over there?
Okay, you go over to feed it while I distract the others...!
Phew... That was a lot of work, but also a lot of fun!
Yeah, it ended up being a really great experience.
You were so quick on your feet, Ichika!
I was...?
I think I got a little carried away after we decided that we were going to feed all the alpacas...
Hehe. But that's why our decoy strategy worked so well! I think you have what it takes to become a zookeeper, Ichika!
I don't know if I actually do, but I really appreciate the compliment.
Also, the alpacas all seem really happy now... I hope we get to do this again in the future.
