If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 495 Tamao
The welcome doorbell of the 24-hour convenience store rang, and the faint sunshine outside the window shone on the red welcome mat at the door. The sound of a few cars on the street was brought into the store by the fresh air, and a A man in brown overalls and a peaked cap, with uncut long hair sticking out from the opening behind the brim of the hat, it can be seen that this man hasn't taken care of himself for a while.

The two clerks behind the counter, wearing work uniforms and hats, said in unison, "Welcome." One of the female clerks brightened her eyes when she saw a man who walked in with downcast eyes and seemed to be lacking in energy, and said, "Mr. , are you here again?"

"おす (morning)." The man agreed without raising his head.

The convenience store is quiet, unlike the supermarkets in big cities, the convenience stores in this small town are always like this, the small color TV is hung on the wall, and the stereotyped soap operas and TV commercials are displayed, and the customers between the shelves keep quiet The selection of goods, shopping and checkout do not bother anyone. So men like to come here to shop almost every day. Rather than disturbing others, he should care more about others not disturbing himself.

"It's getting late, it's already noon, do you still eat bento today? It's not nutritious, and occasionally you have to buy vegetables and make some fresh dishes yourself!" The female clerk put her hands on the counter and looked in front of her. The man passing by laughed and said that the male shop assistant beside her seemed to shrink back in awe when he saw the man passing by.

"I don't have time to do it, it's very troublesome." The man responded briefly, took a shopping basket from the passing counter, walked to the corner of the convenience store and disappeared.

Probably this is the only troublesome part of this convenience store, that is the unusual enthusiasm of the female shop assistant, which makes people feel uncomfortable, but ignoring this problem, the convenience store can still score eight points in the hearts of men, By the way, what can never be surpassed is the unmanned supermarket, because there even the necessary communication process for paying the bill can be omitted.

".What?" The male clerk behind the counter watched the man's back go away before he dared to mutter something softly.

"What, what?" the female clerk heard her colleague's complaint, turned to look at him and asked.

"That attitude, Mika, don't you think this person has always been a little strange?" The male clerk whispered, "I come to buy bento every day at noon, so sloppy, and I have been living in the dilapidated rental house in the rotten building next door. His face also looks a bit vicious, and he doesn’t feel like a good person.”

"Is it vicious? It seems a bit." The female clerk scratched her neck, "But I think he is of the Tamao style."

"Tamao?" The male clerk had question marks all over his face.

"Serizawa Tamao, (Serizawa Tamao), Takayuki Yamada's role in the movie, haven't you seen that movie?" The young female shop assistant looked at this colleague who was about the same age as her, and was skeptical about his viewing volume manner.

"Eh, I usually play PS games." The colleague looked a little embarrassed, and from time to time looked at the back of the man who was wandering in the distance in front of the food area of ​​the freezer and carefully selected, thinking about the "Asahi boy" like himself now (referring to the day Manga-style gentle male protagonists, such as Kamijo Touma and Kamado Tanjiro) are out of favor?Everyone likes the more handsome villain type?

"But he doesn't look like a good person. He always feels like the kind of bad guy who sucks things." The colleague said in a low voice, "Many residents in the building next to him reported that there were some bad people in society. Ah, and this all happened in the last one or two months, didn't this man move in during this time? I actually suspect that he is secretly selling those bad things!"

"Impossible, that kind of person who can't eat well won't have his fighting power! Tamao is the man who is called the king of beasts in Lily of the Valley!" The female clerk raised her arms and rolled up her sleeves. This is a biceps show, but there are no muscles on her slender arms, which can only make her look a little cute, "But the most important thing is that he is very poor. Every time he buys 389 yen bento, if If he really did something bad, he wouldn’t be so depressed.”

"Don't put too much emphasis on movies and TV shows, Mika!" The male clerk was a little dizzy, not wanting to see his obedient colleague get in touch with some weird people.

"It's not substituting. I saw him fighting on the street when I came home from get off work. One person can beat three or four gangsters, and he killed those gangsters with sticks with bare hands. It's really brave." The female shop assistant put down her hands. , "That's why I paid attention to him later. Although he doesn't pay much attention to the quality of life when he comes to buy bento every day, as long as there is a girl who is willing to take care of him, everything will be fine, right?"

"Hey, Meijia." The male clerk felt the danger. This is a man's natural vigilance when it comes to the right to choose a spouse. Although he hasn't had any formal pursuit of his beautiful and well-behaved female colleague, but now the Chinese cabbage has a feeling of wanting to turn it over. The feeling of the bar is always a bad sign, at least you have to turn over the vegetable field for a healthy, brave and handsome porcupine. Finding such a depressed guy will always make him feel that he has lost very badly, and he is not so convinced.

"Do you know his name? He's been here for so long, you probably haven't had a formal conversation with him, right? He always ignores you and me every time. It feels like a social disorder. This kind of man is the most It's difficult." The male clerk tried to put a little distance between the female colleagues and the regular customers of the weird people in the store.

"I really don't know what his name is." The female clerk sat behind the counter with her face propped up, looking at the back of the man in front of the fresh-keeping cabinet, looking down at the two bento boxes in his hand and thinking about making a decision, "Let's ask later."

"He won't talk to you anymore," said the male clerk.

"I don't care about you, haven't you noticed? The two of us have chatted with him for the past two months. He has never answered you, but he often answers me. Although he is so sparing of words, but At any rate, she has spoken to me directly." The female clerk proudly raised her modest breasts, after all, it would take a few years for a temporary worker who just graduated to fully develop, but the male clerk still turned his face away, and Cautiously peeking sideways.

"Just talking to you, Mika, doesn't it mean that he is just a simple, sullen and withdrawn pervert. Maybe he secretly asks girls who have lost his way to come to his house for door-to-door service, and maybe he is quietly harassing other girls on the tram!" The male clerk could only think about it silently in his heart, but didn't say it, because what he said was too malicious, and he couldn't bear the possible consequences. He was just a clerk, and he was not qualified to pick and criticize his customers. Even if the customer is really a poisonous bug or a gangster, and he comes to their store every month to provide turnover, he has to continue to maintain the business with a smile and obediently fulfill his duties.

While the two were chatting, the store door was pushed open again, another customer came in, and the welcome shouted again. After the customer entered the convenience store, the female clerk looked at the male clerk again and said, "You must be here Jealous of Tamao, I can see it."

"Jealous? I'm not jealous." The male clerk flatly denied, "How could I be jealous of someone like him."

"It's always unreliable to judge by appearance. What if he looks fierce, but he is actually a super gentle and kind person who loves dogs and cats?" The female shop assistant tilted her head and looked into the distance. Said the man who picked out the bento and walked over.

"This kind of situation is pitifully rare." The male clerk smiled wryly and didn't know what to say. When he saw the man approaching, his face immediately became tense. Malicious speculation about others.

"Today's lunch is 'juicy fried chicken bento'? It seems that you like this flavor of bento very much. If I remember correctly, you also chose this type of bento yesterday and the day before yesterday, but I saw it just now Have you picked up the "Makauchi Bento"? It's actually a good bento, the price is the same, and the dishes inside are also very rich, ranging from tempura to grilled sausages. Why not try new flavors? "The female clerk skillfully took the bento and scanned the QR code to print the ticket, then looked sideways at the man for the once-a-day conversation time.

"Please heat it up." The man didn't answer the female shop assistant's question, but just asked what he didn't know how many times.

"Is it because there are too many types? It makes you afraid to try new things?"

"Please heat it up." The man repeated himself, but with a stronger tone.

"Okay, please heat it up." The female clerk casually threw the bento to the colleague beside her, folded her hands and looked at the man in front of her, looking at him with extremely aggressive eyes, while the man also stared at him blankly. The bento put in the microwave not far away gave no feedback at all to the female clerk's molestation.

"Sir. Excuse me, do you like dogs?" The female clerk asked this question after thinking for a long time.

The man slowly turned his head to look at her, and said, "I don't like it."

"Then do you like cats?"

"do not like."

"If you had to choose between a cat and a dog, what would you choose? Ah, it's cheating to choose neither!"

"cat."

"Oh why?"

"Because cats are quieter than dogs and don't talk much." The man said lightly.

The female clerk was pestered silently, and it happened that the 30-second heating time of the microwave oven was up, so she turned her head in disgrace and continued to finish her work. When she handed the convenience store to the man, she couldn't help complaining, "You all come to us I’ve been in the store for so long, I’ve met you dozens of times, I still don’t know your name?”

"Why do you care about this issue?" The man put away the lunch box and picked up the plastic bag, and took another look at the young female shop assistant who was probably in her teens or 20s.

"Just curious." The female clerk put her hands on the counter and smiled and shrugged. "Among young girls, the decadent uncle is more attractive than the gentle and sunny guy! Don't you know?"

The man glanced at the reflection of the mirror on the shelf behind the female clerk behind the counter, who was wearing a peaked cap and looked terrible, said nothing, grabbed a handful of change from his trouser pocket and put it on the counter, turned around and walked away. Go to the door of the convenience store.

"Sure enough, it failed." The female clerk sighed, pressed her arm and did a simple stretching movement, sighed, but immediately pulled herself together, bent down and shouted to the man who walked out of the store, "Thank you for your patronage." , welcome to visit next time!"
