After the market, we move to the shopping street. The shopping street is also crowded with many people. Shiro holds Sue’s hand so that she doesn’t get separated.
As we are buying clothes, someone called out to us.
“Oh, it’s you, kid. Are you shopping today?”
“Hello, Chairman. Yes, we are going to be busy from tomorrow, so I thought we should do some shopping in advance.”
“You’re as reliable as ever, kid.”
At the entrance of the store, the chairman of the executive committee of the cherry blossom festival called out to us. Inside the store, her daughter is busy working.
“It’s a general store, right? It’s amazing how you sell everything.”
“Just so-so. It’s the biggest one around here, but it’s not as good as a specialty store.”
The store has a wide selection of products, and it seems that we can find almost everything we need here.
Now that we are here already, I’ll buy some necessary cooking utensils.
Hmm, there is also a flat pot that looks like a frying pan, so let’s buy this as well.
“Oh, are you going to cook again?”
“Yes. I got some good spices, so I thought I’d try them when I get back.”
“The dishes you cooked are delicious, so if you have any leftovers, bring them tomorrow.”
“Hahaha, okay.”
“Good, good. Now I have something to motivate me again.”
The chairman of the executive committee laughed and slapped me on the back. If I don’t share something to him, he’ll for sure say something.
“What are you guys going to do after this?”
“It’s not like we’re going to scout the enemy, but we’re going to the church and the slave market.”
“Hmm, I see. Then, wait for me for a bit.”
Huh?
I wonder if the chairman has something he want us to do.
I looked at Shiro, Ao, and Sue alternately. Then, the chairman of the executive committee, who seemed to be ready to go out, came out from the back of the store.
“Okay, let’s go.”
“Eh? Where?”
“It’s decided, right? We’ll go to the church and the slave market. The cherry blossom festival starts tomorrow, so I have to say hello to them.”
“Uh-”
The face of the executive committee chairman is completely the face of a villain.
Actually, I was planning to keep things quiet, but no matter how I think about it, I can’t help but feel like things are going to get turbulent.
