    In the bustling heart of Tokyo, a curious company named 'Honesty Corp' stood tall. The office was like any other, filled with the hum of keyboards and the aroma of coffee, but it had one distinctive feature: its peculiar CEO, Kobutori Jiisan.

    Kobutori was not your average CEO; his nose was not only large but magical. It could sniff out the truth, a handy talent in a world of corporate deception.

    Today, like any other day, he was going about his duties with his trusty assistant, Sakura, by his side.

    Suddenly, Kobutori's nose twitched. He turned to a nearby employee, Hiroshi, and asked, "Did you finish the report on time?"

    "Yes, sir," replied Hiroshi nervously, but Kobutori's nose twitched again. He knew Hiroshi was lying.

    "Hiroshi, my nose tells me you're fibbing. Try again," Kobutori said with a knowing smile.

    One morning, a nervous intern named Ken walked into the office. Kobutori's nose twitched as soon as he saw him.
