"Good morning."
After a 10-minute walk, Yusuke Kato arrived at his work place, a 24-hour convenience store, at 7:40.
"Ah, Kato-kun, good morning."
Greeted by a colleague from the same period, his full name is Takada Shiori, a 17-year-old girl with short blonde hair, who is, who is studying at a nearby school and currently sits in second grade High School.
Like Kato Yusuke, Takada Shi will use the time after school and weekends to work here, since they have the same identity, the relationship of the two is not bad. (No Shiori thinks to herself)
"Good morning, Takada-senpai, you work hard."
Kato Yusuke bent back.
"There's no need to use an honorary degree, after all, they're all students."
As she said that, Shiori Takada glanced at her, and her hands continued to move.
She wore a dark blue uniform in the store on the upper body, and a grey pleated skirt on the lower body. He had a very hot body, and the place to be raised was convex and the place to be raised was curved Right now, he was checking the items on the shelf.
"Do you need help?"
Kato Yusuke pointed to the grocery basket at his feet and said that there were rice balls that had gone through the tasting period. Although they are not damaged, they are not suitable to continue to be sold.
In Japan, where competition in the convenience store industry is fierce, "extraordinary taste" has the same status as "comfort" and is equally appreciated.
Since the shelf time of fresh food is relatively fixed, usually once in the morning, afternoon and evening, then every day a special person in charge will check the shelf life of food twice a day, as well as the shelf life of food, that's what Takada Shiori is doing now.
As for the food of choice is usually distributed to the shopkeeper, according to the rules of each store can also be divided into those that can be taken home and those that can not be taken home and can only be eaten in the store. Yusuke Kato They were among the last.
"Then you can take this to the waiting room."
Takada Shiori pointed to the shopping cart aisle on the ground.
Kato Yusuke nodded, picked up the shopping cart and walked in.
At this moment, Takada Shiori seemed to recall something, and shouted at him with "Ah-" from her mouth.
"By the way, remember to leave me a beef rice ball!"
Kato Yusuke stopped his steps and replied without looking back.
"understood."
Then push the door and enter the room.
…
Five minutes later, when Kato Yusuke, who had changed clothes, walked out again, there was already a queue at the store, and Takada Shiori, who was behind the cashier, was busy checking on the customers.
Seeing this, Kato Yusuke quickly stepped forward to stand on the machine next to him, and politely asked the uncle in front of him.
"Hello, what do I need?"
"Bring me a No. 160 cigarette and a bottle of this water."
The well-dressed uncle said to him.
"A total of 650 yen, here's the change for you."
Kato Yusuke put the cigarettes and change at the cashier.
Due to its location, often many white collar workers pass by. Everyone buys water, breakfast, and snacks here before work, so this is also the busiest time in the store.
But fortunately, the two of them worked together quite well, and they also handled the peak period in an orderly manner.
"Thank you for your protection and welcome to come next time!"
Saying honor, Shiori Takada bowed slightly towards the guest leaving.
look up, the time has come to 10:15.
"Huh—" Takada Shiori sighed in relief with her chest rising and falling.
"It's hard work." Kato Yusuke said, then said to Takada Shiori: "Then I will go to fill up the goods, you rest first."
"Huh? No need for this, we'll do it together."
Takada Shiori waved her hand again and again.
Kato Yusuke looked at the sweaty strands of hair on his forehead, shook his head and said.
After saying that, he walked to the warehouse, and came out with a pile of items in a short period of time.
His stature was high but not rough Due to his long work, the muscles in his arms were flat and strong. Under the silky black short hair, clear and bright eyes were as calm as lake water.
At this moment, it strongly attracted Takada Shiori's eyes, which made her blush.
…
Looking at the scene in front of him, Fangmura, who was walking into the shop, could not help but stop at his feet, his eyes switched between the two, and finally stopped at Kato Yusuke, who was at the end of the day, his eyes blinked with jealousy.
"Uhuk uhuk"
He coughed lightly, then raised the list in his hand to Yusuke Kato, and said with a stern face.
"Kato-kun, come here."
"...Shop Manager? When!?"
exclaiming in his mouth, Takata Shiori turned around frantically and bowed to Fangcun, and there was another turbulent wave under the large-scale movement, and Fangcun's eyes nearly fell.
However, in the next second, he felt dark in front of him, and then a tall figure appeared in front of him.
"Manager of Yoshimura's shop." Kato Yusuke looked at him calmly and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
His tone was neither humble nor arrogant.
The 15-year-old's net height had reached 178cm, and Fangcun was only around 167cm even if he wore leather shoes. When the two stood together, Fangcun could only stare at Kato Yusuke, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Well, some stuff has arrived, you can move it to the warehouse."
fangmura said while thinking.
"it's good."
Kato Yusuke nodded, following Fangmura towards the door, and Takada Shiori, who heard the words of the two, also hurriedly followed.
Then, they saw a box that was placed on the ground and built as high as a hill.
"Liar! How many fruits!?"
Takada Shiori's eyes widened.
"Well, there's about fifty."
fangmura said lightly.
"There are fifty pieces!? And everything is a drink!? Why are we getting delivered at this hour? Shouldn't they have arrived last night!?"
"Unfortunately, Tanaka, who is on a night shift, accidentally injures her wrist, so she has to stay until the next day, and there's nothing she can do."
Yoshimura explained to Takada Shiori, but there was a grin in his heart, and he glanced at Kato Yusuke faintly.
"When this will move!"
Takada Shiori said desperately.
"Ah, Shiori, you don't need to move, just leave it to Kato."
"...Uh?"
Takada Shiori was stunned, then looked at Fangmura and said.
"...Is this a joke? Shop manager?"
"No, no, no, no."
Fangmura waved his hand, then looked at Kato Yusuke.
"I can hand it to you, right, Kato-kun?"
Kato Yusuke was silent.
Seeing this, Fangcun's face showed a smile, as if he said casually.
"I don't want to? By the way, I remember that the condition of your family is not very good. Is it okay? If you lose this job."
The implied threat in it speaks volumes.
