After paying for the 20 minute contest, Hikaru was led into a room. There was a single table and a chair waiting for him.
Confused, Hikaru turned to his guide. "Where are the other contestants?"
Instead of answering, the guide pointed to a chart on the wall. There was a list of names on the chart, each with a number next to them. The guide spoke. "The way we do it here is, you pay for a contest, and, if you eat more than the person at the top," he gestured to the chart, "you win 2 weeks of free ramen."
Hikaru's face lit up. "When do I start?!"
The guide smiled. "Right now!"
He led Hikaru to his seat, then walked out, only to return with a tray filled with at least ten very large bowls of ramen before leaving again. Hikaru prepared to dig in.
Suddenly, Sai appeared behind Hikaru. "Hikaru, I don't think this is a good idea. What if you get sick from eating all that ramen?"
Hikaru laughed. "Don't worry, Sai. I can do this!"
Without wasting anymore time, Hikaru dug in. Within five minutes, Hikaru had cleared out at least half of the bowls. His stomach had swelled considerably, pressing against his shirt.
Heedless of this, Hikaru prepared to dig into another bowl when he suddenly groaned.
"Hikaru! Are you alright?" Sai asked worriedly.
Seemingly ignoring Sai, Hikaru bent down and hurriedly undid his pants button and zipper, causing his stomach to bulge out a bit.
"That's better," Hikaru sighed in relief. Without further ado, he began tucking into the remaining ramen, even while the guide brought in more ramen.
"More ramen?" Hikaru stared happily at the bowls. "I love this contest!"
