The bookstore owner nodded after hearing Suzuki's words, turned around and got into a pile of books. After a while, he picked up a well-packaged book with a cover that looked very dated at first glance.
"But Mr. Store Manager, didn't your bookstore just open recently?" Oda flipped through the book handed to him by the store manager, "But this book looks like it has been around for a while.
Already."
"That may be because I have wanted to open a bookstore since a long time ago." The store manager raised his head and sighed, "Really... I started from a long time ago."
In fact, Oda could tell from the interior decoration that the owner was the type to run a bookstore purely for personal interests. Therefore, Oda did not doubt the store manager's words. Instead, he remembered the location of the store in his mind.
, because from the fact that the store manager can preserve this somewhat old book so well, it can be seen that he is also a book lover.
Oda believes that people who love books should be good people and people with deep experience.
"Thank you, store manager." Oda nodded towards the store manager, then turned to Suzuki and said, "Ayanone-chan, let's go shopping and read a book for a while."
"Yes." Suzuki nodded, and the two of them continued to search for the reading materials they were interested in among the tight and orderly bookshelves. They did not notice that the store manager's eyes were staring at Oda's back, with a look in his eyes.
Full of suspicion and a hint of hostility.
"The 1992 edition of "The Catcher in the Rye" and this, the first edition of Mr. Lu Xun's "Morning Blossoms Plucked at Dusk" were translated by Xinchaoshe." The more he walked around, the more Oda felt that this bookstore was like a bookstore with hidden meanings.
It is a treasure house with infinite treasures, and every book has extremely high literary value. Oda even suspected that this store was not a bookstore but a library.
"Oh, by the way, the books in the cabinets over there are prohibited items, but you can view them in the store." The store manager pointed to a few small tables in the corner of the bookstore, "Just be careful not to get the books dirty or damaged.
good."
"Yeah, yeah." Oda nodded excitedly. Although Suzuki didn't know as much about reading as Oda, he was a little excited to see so many rare collections of books, so he picked a few that interested him.
After reading the book, he followed Oda and sat in the reading corner.
Oda likes Suzuki's character very much, because during this period of contact, Oda found that Suzuki can be lively when she is lively, and can be calm when she is quiet, and she also has many talents and good grades.
Overall, Suzuki looks like a younger version of himself, except that he is a little shy in front of the camera.
The two of them were reading quietly like this. Suddenly, Oda smelled the aroma of tea. When he looked up, it turned out that the store manager had brought two cups of tea and placed them on their table.
"This is?" Oda asked.
"It's a little bit of preferential treatment for people who also love books." The store manager smiled, "Besides, having famous idols come to my store really makes this bookstore shine."
"I will probably bother you boss more often in the future." Oda smiled, then took out his wallet from the small bag, "How much is the tea?"
"No money, no money." The store manager shook his head, then turned and left.
"What a strange person." Oda said silently in his heart, and then continued to lower his head and read the book in his hand.
"By the way, the new volume of "Gundam SEED" arrived yesterday. It's in the second box at the door. If you are interested, you can go and take a look." The store manager suddenly turned around and said something like this.
In one sentence, "Some things require the courage to take the first step, right?"
"???" Three question marks appeared on Oda's head. On the other hand, Suzuki opposite Oda suddenly raised his head alertly after hearing this sentence, with an incredible expression, but after hearing the second half of the sentence, he suddenly raised his head.
fell into silence.
"Um, Senior Koichi..." Suzuki thought for a while and stood up, "I...I'll go take a look."
"Gundam comics?" Oda naturally thought of what the store manager just said, "Ayaone-chan, do you like to read Gundam?"
"This..." Although this was nothing to be ashamed of, Suzuki was a little hesitant to tell Oda about his special hobby at this moment.
"Gundam comics..." Oda touched his chin and thought, "When I was chatting with Na-chan before, she mentioned Gundam to me. I heard that the mech combat scenes are very interesting." Speaking of Nishino, Oda said
He suddenly laughed again: "Speaking of which, Nishino also likes comics that are different from ordinary girls. She couldn't read a few romance comics that Sayuri lent her before. Instead, she especially likes JOJO and Ginya.
Hot-blooded comic.”
"Gundam is very interesting." Oda's reaction was somewhat beyond Suzuki's expectations, but the carrot soul hidden in her heart still made her continue what Oda said, "The construction of the world view, and the combination of machines
The battles with humans and the rendering of various emotions are particularly powerful, and Gundam is really super handsome..." At this point, Suzuki suddenly stopped speaking, and then covered his mouth with both hands.
"Then Ayaon-chan can introduce Gundam to me later." Oda tilted his head and smiled.
"Yes!" Suzuki smiled and nodded, then stood up from his seat and ran to the location the store manager just pointed out with small steps.
"However, I really didn't expect Ayone-chan to like Gundam." Oda whispered, "Maybe good-looking girls have different preferences from ordinary people."
"Miss Oda, didn't you know that Miss Suzuki likes Gundam?" At this time, the elusive boss suddenly appeared next to Oda.
"Well, I don't know at all." Oda picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip, "But boss, how do you know that Ayane...Suzuki-san likes Gundam."
"Secret." The boss put his finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture. This somewhat cute gesture was a bit funny on this middle-aged man.
"Store manager-san, you're too old to stop doing these cute actions." Oda complained.
"How old are you?" The store manager didn't mind Oda's somewhat rude behavior, "Speaking of which, I just celebrated my 24th birthday two days ago."
"It's fake!" Oda was shocked by this unexpectedly young age.
The store manager was noncommittal about Oda's reaction. He just smiled and turned around and left. As the store manager left, Suzuki came with a Gundam comic in his hand and an excited look on his face.
