Chapter 45: The Specialty Food of the Takamagahara Market
Natsume, who was pushed out by Ebisu to see what he likes to eat, was completely broken down, and this shelf full of cat food and dog food allowed him to choose what to eat?
Do not eat pet biscuits, pet teethers, and pet snacks.
The tsundere Natsume turned around and grabbed Ebisu's trouser leg and asked Ebisu to pick him up and never look at those pet food again. Ebisu saw Natsume's behavior and asked, "What's wrong, do you like it?" and Natsume immediately shook his head like a rattle. "Don't you like it?" Ebisu began to have a headache, what should I do, the little fox can't do it without eating.
Looking around and seeing the owner sitting behind the counter in the store, Ebisu seemed to have found a savior, and hurried to the counter with Natsume in his arms. Seeing the two walking towards him, the boss stopped his work, put down the ledger and asked, "Welcome, if the guest needs help, please don't politely bring it up!" Put him on the ground and let him look for it by himself, as if he doesn't like the things on the shelves in the boss's store very much, is there anything you can recommend?" The white-bearded old man, who was a little old, pushed his reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, carefully looked at Natsume who was nestled in Ebisu's arms with his eyes, and thought for a while while with his somewhat long and well-groomed beard. Suddenly, as if remembering some rattle, he called the service staff in the store, whispered to him for a while, and the service staff went down to prepare.
It didn't take long for a lot of bags of different packaging to be brought in from the pipes that connected the stores, and these things were transmitted from the pipes and gathered on top of the counters, and then fell from the top to the counters, and the entire counters were piled up. The shopkeeper stood behind the pile of bags and said with a smile: "Take your time, let's take our time, there are so many here that you can always find one and your appetite." ”
Natsume felt bad when he saw the smile of the store and the words he heard, and the hair on his body exploded with excitement, and he was about to pull Ebisu's clothes away. It's a pity that this time Ebisu didn't realize the meaning of Natsume's actions very well, and instead looked at the huge pile of food and greeted Natsume excitedly. "There are a lot of them here, and they look like they taste good. Come and try it, if it's delicious, we'll pack it and go home. ”
Without Natsume resisting, he slipped him up to the counter and placed him in the middle of the food on the counter, and then stared at Natsume with anticipation with the store. Natsume roared, "No matter how fragrant and delicious this food is, it can't change the fact that this is food for pets, and I will never touch it." He snorted as he leaned into the food pile, and this scoundrel made Ebisu completely unfolded, so he had to compromise with Natsume and confirm again and again, "Do you really like it?" Seeing Natsume shake his head, Ebisu had no choice but to give up, "Let's go! Let's go to other places and find out what you want to eat." ”
"Sorry for the trouble, we didn't find what we were looking for and need to leave, thank you for your hospitality, goodbye. Ebisu said goodbye. "Wait a minute, I still have the last one to give the little fox a try, maybe it will be a different result. ”
As he spoke, he took out a wooden box from under the counter and opened the lid of the box, a box of rich beef aroma filled the room, took a deep breath, it was really fragrant, this fragrance couldn't help but make Natsume think, Q elastic texture, rich taste enjoyment, the perfect mix of salty and sweet flavors, and the full satisfaction after eating. Thinking of this, Natsume's mouth couldn't help but start secreting suspicious liquids automatically. Natsume, who hadn't eaten for a long time, was indeed hungry, but had to endure it for his escape. As the saying goes: if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. Before such a delicacy, Natsume had to do the mental work for himself over and over again.
Before the thought work was completed, Natsume felt that the scent that had caused people to commit crime before had come from far and near, and the food that emitted this fragrance had already reached his mouth. Fascinated by the ignorance of the opening of his mouth, just as his teeth were about to touch the food delivered to his mouth, Natsume suddenly woke up and shook his confused head, and resolutely rejected the delicacy.
After Natsume refused, the shopkeeper shook his head, "If I don't even eat my secret beef cubes, then I can't do anything about it." Anyway, if it's a fox, maybe you can go out and turn left on the eastern side of the street, where there are many fox gods. When he was about to go out, Natsume was still glad that he had persevered and not made a mistake of principle, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to stop taking a bite. But why is it so strange that this store sells some pet food, and some even dog food and cat food that came in from the world? When they walked out of the store and came to the street, Natsume and Ebisu looked back at the store at the same time, and when they saw the name of the store, they realized what a big problem they had overlooked? The name of this store is called Takamagahara, the first pet food store from ancient times to the present, and they all missed the two smaller words "pet" on the signboard. Natsume thought that if I had seen that it was a pet food store, I wouldn't have entered it in the first place, and I wouldn't have been delayed for so long in a place that sold pet food.
Hold Natsume to find the most lively place on the east side of the main street that the store said before turning left, the east side of the street was originally the most prosperous in the entire market where a large number of people gathered, where almost all the goods of Takamagahara were gathered, whether they were common or rare, so you can find what you want as long as you are lucky. Stalls of all sizes are set up here, and the people who come and go make it difficult for people to pass here. I don't know where to look for a place surrounded by a lot of fox oracles, because Ebisu only feels that his eyes are full of people. Natsume saw the bustle of people coming and going, and secretly rejoiced in his heart: this place is so good, it is very suitable for him to escape and disappear, and as soon as he finds the opportunity to escape, he will immediately break free from the hands of the perverted uncle and escape. In such a flow of people, as long as you escape, it is like a dragon entering the sea, and it is impossible to be found again.
Ebisu, who was looking around, finally found a booth surrounded by many fox oracles, and locked on the target, Ebisu held Natsume and headed towards this place. Getting closer and closer to this place, Natsume keenly smelled an alluring fragrance that was irresistible.
