The three of them sat in the coffee shop until evening.
Koshimizu Nanatsuki invited Chi Feichi and Haibara Ai to have pasta for dinner as a reward for helping with the investigation. Hearing that Haihara Ai came to Akihabara with the intention of looking at dresses, he took the two of them there directly.
In the dress store, as a customer, I am full of interest in helping Haihara Ai choose a loli dress.
At night, there were still no fewer customers in the dress shop than during the day. The short-haired girl who entrusted Nanatsuki Koshizui to investigate was very busy. After hearing Nanatsuki Koshizu introduce her as "a friend and the sister of a friend," she asked Yuesui with an apologetic look.
Mizu Nanatsuki first looked at the clothes with the two of them, then turned around and was busy entertaining the guests with his colleagues.
"Xiao Ai, do you really not want to try the pink one?" Koshizui Nanatsuki held two sets of children's clothes and placed them next to Haibara Ai for comparison. "The pink one looks very cute. Occasionally, you should try childish colors.
Well."
Haihara Ai looked at the two sets of children's clothes, but they all seemed too childish. She turned to look at the busy short-haired girl, "I think the Gothic Loli skirt she is wearing is very good. There is no old European skirt.
The dress has a draggy feel, although the skirt also has complicated layers, but overall it is very refreshing, and it looks very elegant when paired with gloves.”
"Gothic..." Koshimizu Nanatsuki still held two sets of children's clothes in his hands, and turned to stare at the rows of clothes displayed on the shelves, looking for a new target.
Chi Feichi stood up and said hello, "I'm going out to get some fresh air."
Based on his understanding, after women choose the color and general style of clothes, they will also consider details such as the neckline style, clothing material, and even whether there are buttons. Then they try it on to see the effect, and if it doesn’t work, change it.
set……
If two or more women choose together, the above time will be doubled.
Looking at Yueshui and Xiaoai's serious attitude of "I want to choose something tonight", they will definitely not be able to leave this store within half an hour.
He understands it, but has a hard time understanding it.
The last time he paid attention to the buttons on a woman's clothes was probably when he was looking at the corpse at the murder scene...
You can't say such honest words, otherwise you will definitely be accused of "disturbing the scenery". It's better to go out and take a walk by yourself.
…
In Akihabara at night, the lights are bright everywhere, and people are coming and going on the streets. The flow of people is much greater than during the day.
Feichi poked his head out of Chi Feichi's collar, rested his head on the edge of Chi Feichi's collar, and looked around at the street scene.
"Master, it seems there is no float parade today..."
"Master, look, look, there are two cool girls on the street across the street!"
"Master, there is a stuffed bear selling ice cream in front of you!"
Chi Feichi looked up at the ice cream shop where the employees were wearing doll costumes, and walked over.
"Master, look, this ice cream looks delicious..." Fei Chi stretched his neck and reluctantly watched the ice cream getting farther and farther away from him, then he looked away in frustration.
"Go shopping first and buy it on the way back to the store," Chi Feichi said in a low voice as he passed through a group of young men and women. "By the way, I'll buy one for Xiao Ai and Yueshui too."
The young men and women next to him turned their heads and looked at Chi Feichi curiously, as if they were wondering why the young man in black who walked by them was talking to himself.
"That's right, let's try it again when we go back," Feichi became more interested, "Master, those three girls were looking at you just now! By the way, those two boys were looking at you too.
Wow, it’s so far away and I’m still looking..."
Chi Feichi: "..."
If Fei Chi hadn't made him talk, he believed he wouldn't have been stared at for so long.
Fei Chi had been quietly watching the group of young men and women. After Chi Fei Chi turned into a nearby street, he looked away and caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, "Master, Master, it's a new doctor! Look, it's just across the street.
In front of the comic shop, he was caught on a date with Miss Hikaru Homoto by a girl from Teidan High School!"
Chi Feichi was attracted by Feichi's description and turned his head to look over.
At the entrance of the comic shop opposite, Hikari Homoto held a stack of comic books and stood behind Tomaki Shinde, watching Tomaki Shinde talk to two girls wearing Teidan High School uniforms.
The two sides were talking and laughing, and a girl even patted Tomaki Shinde on the shoulder proudly. Her words made Hikaru Homoto laugh non-stop. The atmosphere was harmonious and friendly. How could he be as gossipy as Feichi said?
However, seeing how busy Shinde Tomoaki was, he didn't go over to say hello so as not to be dragged into chatting again.
When passing by a model and handicraft store, Chi Feichi took Feichi into the store and took a look around.
The store is lit up with warm yellow chandeliers, and most of the products are in Japanese retro style, which looks very atmospheric.
A cute female shop assistant wearing a maid uniform followed along the road, stealing glances at Chi Fei Chi from time to time, and curiously noticing the deep purple color of Chi Fei Chi's eyes when backlit. When she saw Chi Fei Chi lingering in front of the kendama, she immediately enthusiastically introduced the products.
"Guest, the toys and models here are all old items that have passed through the years. Although they are not as valuable as antiques, they are no longer available for purchase. For example, these kendamas were purchased by our shop owner from the homes of some wealthy merchants. Time has passed.
It’s been a long time, it’s been a hundred years!”
Chi Feichi nodded and continued walking forward.
He just didn't expect that this store would also sell kendama. Speaking of kendama, he and Fei Chi also had this collection.
It was a century-old product obtained from a wealthy merchant. He believed that there were not many wealthy merchants who could compare with the Karasuma family a hundred years ago.
The female clerk asked curiously, "Did you come to Harajuku alone?"
"I came with my girlfriend and sister," Chi Feichi scanned the items on the display table, "They went shopping for clothes."
A trace of disappointment flashed in the female shop assistant's eyes, but she quickly cheered up and said with a smile, "I see, you are tired of waiting, so why don't you go out for a walk? Then do you want to buy them a gift?"
We also have a lot of small items that are popular with girls, such as very beautiful temari, Japanese umbrellas and uchiwa fans, which are very suitable for giving as gifts. After a while, when we go out to enjoy the cherry blossoms, there will be beautiful girls with beautiful Japanese umbrellas and beautiful kimonos.
The happiest~!”
You can live up to handsome guys, but you can never live up to making money.
Chi Feichi: "..."
He suspected that the clerk wanted to drain his savings...
Wait, if you calculate his savings, it probably won't be empty.
However, the things in this store are not usually used, and the antique collection is not up to par. They are handicrafts at most. If he buys a bunch of them and carries them over as gifts, Yueshui and Xiaoai will be confused and suspect that others are stupid and have too much money.
And as for gifts, you don’t need to give too many gifts, just pick them carefully and choose the right ones.
Two minutes later, the female clerk put a Temari and two old records into cartons with the store's name printed on them, and packed them skillfully. When she found Chi Feichi still in front of the shelf, she introduced with a smile, "They're all over there. Traditionally styled figures and models, such as an old man wearing a neng mask, a lucky cat, a geisha..."
Chi Feichi looked at the sets of small objects, lowered his head and asked Feichi, "Is there anything you want?"
"Huh?" The female clerk looked up in confusion and saw a snake emerging from Chi Feichi's collar, and the smile on her face froze.
Snake, alive...
After Fei Chi got out of his collar, he climbed onto Chi Fei Chi's shoulders, looked up at the shelves, extended his tail, and patted the Lucky Cat with the tip of his tail, "Buy a Lucky Cat, Master, come on I told Feimo once that we could hang a lucky cat on the doll wall to bless Umbrella to make more money!"
Without thinking much, Chi Fei guessed that Fei Chi would be interested in the 'expanded doll wall'. He looked at the row of lucky cats on the shelf, turned to the female clerk who was stunned by Fei Chi, and said, "This Please help me install the Lucky Cat too."
There are seven lucky cats with non-red fingers. The ceramic products are only half the size of a palm, but the details are very delicate, and the edges and corners are very smooth.
And it seems that the seven Lucky Cats are a set.
The one holding up his left hand, the one holding up his right hand, the one holding gold ingots, and the one holding up a stack of Japanese yen. Their postures are all different from the common lucky cats. Some are leaning forward, some are standing with their big tails behind them, and the other three moves are Cai Mao's posture is even weirder. One of his left and right hands is raised, and he is posing seriously with a standard squinting smile. One of them tilts his head directly, and the other twists his waist and turns sideways, holding two open fans with both hands.
For such a unique item, the price is quite reasonable.
The previous Temaris were considered exquisite handicrafts, and the records were second-hand goods that were hard to find, and the price was almost 10,000 yen, while this Lucky Cat set was priced at 850,000 yen.
However, he had long thought that hobbies like Fei Chi and Fei Mo would be expensive, and he was also prepared to have "one wall at home and a suite in Tokyo" in the future.
After the female clerk came to her senses, she speeded up the packing process, dug out small wooden boxes one by one, stepped forward and carefully removed the Lucky Cat, "This is a modern master who is famous for making Lucky Cats..."
"I know." Chi Feichi didn't want to listen to others nagging anymore. He took out his phone and checked the time, "Please hurry up."
This is the work of a certain modern master. Of course he knows this. However, it is an early work and the style is relatively superficial. Many businessmen feel that it is not serious and has no sincerity in seeking money. Therefore, it has little reputation and the price is not high. If If he has the patience to collect, a set of genuine products can be collected for about 800,000 yen, and he will not lose money by spending an extra 50,000 yen.
Even if a set of lucky cats on the shelf is a replica, it is still very close to the real thing, and the price will not be less than 700,000 yen.
Besides, Fei Chi and Fei Mo don't care whether it's a masterpiece or not. They can just go back and hang it on the wall. As long as their pets are happy, they don't care whether it's genuine or not. Just don't be a fool.
The female clerk didn't bother anymore, but the things were just bought by Chi Fei Chi. She always felt something was wrong without explaining anything. When Chi Fei paid late and took the things out, she couldn't help but smile and said, "This is ours."
They are the treasure of the store. Since they came to the store, the business in the store has been very good. I hope they can bless you all the best in the future!"
"I'd like to lend you some good words."
Chi Feichi said politely, picked up his things and turned around to go out.
What really makes business better is a clerk who is good at cheating... no, a good talker. (To be continued.)
