I’M Really Helpless In Tokyo

"The reserve manager? Are you a good kid, work hard."

After placing the goods, the two chatted for a few words. Uncle Iwae and Sosuke Araki waved, and drove to another store to deliver the goods.

And Sosuke Araki also started the work at hand.

The night shift in the convenience store is definitely not what you imagined to be standing and doing nothing.

Receiving, ordering and replenishing goods, updating products according to the requirements of the headquarters, pasting various activity signs, regularly cleaning oden cooking machines, making simple food in advance, and so on.

But these are just a piece of cake for the extremely skilled Araki Sosuke.

Soon, he finished his work, stood in the blind corner of the surveillance and flipped through the "Super familiar".

During the period, he also took the time to sneak a few glances at the caring "Severe COSPLAY patient".

The other party is still sitting there quietly, as if closing her eyes and resting, even the corner of the convenience store where she is faintly exudes a sacred aura.

It seems that I don't plan to go back... This is the first time I have seen such a confident and confident homeless person.

About a little later, the girl seemed a little bit sleepy and fell asleep on the small table.

Araki Sosuke gently walked over and put a steamed bun on the other side's table.

The girl was awakened immediately, raised her head and looked at him in a daze.

"Fresh expired meat buns, please, eat them while they are hot."

Leaving this sentence, Araki Sosuke also walked to the blind spot of the monitoring under the cashier, took a meat bun and gnawed it.

"Ah...thank you."

Touching the steaming meat bun on her hand, the girl was shocked and thanked very politely, then she took the bun in her hand and ate it gracefully.

Just as the two were eating the meat buns quietly, a sound of "patter, patter" came from far and near from the darkness.

As the voice got closer, an old woman in a black kimono appeared at the entrance of the store. The voice was made by the clogs on her feet.

Gently pressing the button on the electric door, the old woman walked into the store tremblingly, and walked straight to the corner shelf.

"Are there regular customers living nearby?"

The other party walked directly to the shelf, obviously familiar with the merchandise merchandise in the store.

Araki Sosuke glanced at the clock on his head, and the time was close to two o'clock.

For such a trembling old man, he was not surprised.

Japan is a super-aging society and also the country with the longest average life expectancy. The population over 65 has exceeded 10% of the national population, and many people are still working at the age of 75.

But I went out to buy things late at night, maybe there are urgently needed supplies.

Thinking this way, Araki Sect interface flushed and continued to flip the magazine in his hand.

The old woman quickly got the goods she wanted and walked slowly to the cashier.

Sosuke Araki took the book in one hand and the merchandise placed on the counter in the other, and quickly scanned it on the desktop scanner.

The other party bought a box of maltose.

This is a very traditional yellow transparent candy.

"The total is 365 yen, thank you for your patronage, and welcome to come again next time."

Sosuke Araki packed the maltose house in a small bag, put it respectfully on the table, and then took out the change plate.

The reason for using this kind of change plate is to facilitate the receipt and counting of coins taken out by the guests, and to avoid physical contact when passing the change.

The old woman picked up the candy, put a few coins in the change plate, and went out tremblingly.

Just as Araki opened the pop-up cash box and was about to put the coins in, a trace of black air poured into his body from the coins.

He suddenly discovered that the coins in the change plate were not the usual Japanese yen, but a few broken coins with oval square holes that could not be seen clearly on the surface.

"What's this?"

This old woman is confused, she took out all the messy things at home to pay.

Araki Sosuke chased him out immediately.

The slow-moving mother-in-law had already walked to the dark alley at this moment, and the thin figure stopped in the shadows.

"Hehehe..." Without turning her head, the old woman laughed in a slow and gloomy tone.

"Wait..." Behind Araki Zongsuke, the girl's voice came, as if the other party also followed him out.

"Mother-in-law..." He stretched out his hand and placed it gently on the old woman's shoulder.

The endless darkness obscured the old man's face.

The opponent turned his head slowly.

A trace of black air poured into Sousuke Araki's body from her shoulder.

What turned around was the smiling face of the old woman who was shining brightly with white light.

Although it was covered with layers of wrinkles, it carried a kind and kind atmosphere.

"What's the matter? My granddaughter likes to eat the maltose I bought for her the most." The old woman said to Sosuke Araki grinning.

"Really... it's okay, but it's too late. Be careful on the way home."

Seeing the old man's smiling face, Araki Zongsuke was stunned for a moment, and then bowed obediently.

"Thank you." The old woman clasped her hands and greeted him, then turned and continued to step into the darkness.

Under the shining of the street lamp that fell to the ground, her body seemed to be bursting with a faint white light.

Seeing the old woman walking away, Araki Sosuke also turned around and returned to the shop.

At the moment, he changed his mind and decided to pretend not to know that the other party gave the wrong money.

This old woman should be a little confused, so she would come out to buy sweets for her granddaughter with that old coin in the middle of the night.

A girl in a witch costume stood sluggishly outside the convenience store, looking at the dark alleyway in the distance.

There, the old woman with white light all over her body was walking slowly, gradually turning into white light spots floating in the air.

A bag of maltose fell on the empty roadway.

Back at the cashier, Sosuke Araki took out the change from his trouser pocket and put it in the cash box at the price of maltose.

After a while, the girl walked into the store, stood in front of the cash register, looked at him with complicated eyes, and asked courageously.

"Excuse me... how did you do it?"

"How to do it... Are you asking, is that thing?"

Hearing the other party's question, Araki Sosuke thought a little, his eyes became serious.

Seeing the other person's expression, the girl also gave a sigh of relief and nodded slightly.

"Since you have noticed...Although this is a secret technique that I usually don't want to tell people..."

While saying this, Araki Sosuke slowly opened the incubator on the cash register...

The girl breathed slightly, her eyes focused on him.
