"The lighter is broken?" Shiraishi leaned over suspiciously.

Only then did I know that the lighter was fine.

But no matter how long the flame it spits out burned on the wick, when it was removed, the candle was still an unlit candle, and even the wax around it had not melted in the slightest.

…… Could it be that there is some protection mechanism that only he can use?

"I'll try." Shiraishi took the lighter from Butterfly Shinobi's hand and leaned over to order it himself.

A minute passed, two minutes passed......

Click-

Shiraishi threw the hot lighter, shook his hand in a huff, and grabbed the candlestick: "This is a colored ceramic camouflage!" ”

But no matter how much you touch it, the touch is indeed wax......

Until he reached out and pulled the wick of the candle in confusion.

In the next instant, the light screen popped up, and the backpack interface and currency interface were displayed on the screen.

In the backpack, the compartment where [[N] Memory Fragment is located is glowing slightly.

And the currency interface, the row where [Crystal] is located, also reacts in the same way.

Shiraishi was silent for a moment at the overly obvious hint, understood.

…… No wonder after the novice period, he was given this kind of non-consumable props that can cross life and death, almost a bit of a bug - it turns out that he has to throw fuel into it!

Now there is a crystallization and a fragment of memories, and he is reluctant to try to kill him......

Shiraishi sighed, and put the candle away again.

Wasting such a long time, I went to buy a lighter, what's the picture.

Butterfly Shinobu watched his movements, a little puzzled: "Don't you order?" ”

"Nope." Shiraishi looked vicissitudes, "Fuel is a bit expensive. ”

Butterfly Shinobu nodded, put away the long knife, and walked back to the counter with a lazy waist.

Shiraishi sneaked home very shamelessly and bought a box of bento, which was considered lunch.

It's still early, just in the afternoon.

After eating, Shiraishi thought about it and thought that he should go to school first and take back the envelope that Ayako Suzuki had said that contained the details of the event.

- She only said next week, but didn't say what day it was, so it's better to bring it in advance to prevent missing it.

I was going to leave through the back door, but before I opened the door, Shiraishi suddenly remembered something.

He then opened the front door again and asked the butterfly shinobu behind the counter: "Are you still willing to make those small props before?" ”

"Okay." Butterfly Shinobu looked interested.

She took a closer look at Shiraishi and found that the store manager also seemed to be looking forward to the props, so she made a small request by the way: "If you have herbs, or any new seasoning, you can also give it to me~"

The power of herbs does sound much greater than ordinary vegetables, Shiraishi is happy.

But soon it occurred to him that he didn't know if there were any herbs sold in modern island countries...... I could only run a few more pharmacies for a while: "I'll try my best." ”

"That's right." Butterfly Shinobu remembered one more thing and called out to Shiraishi when he was about to close, "It's better to buy some more pots, I'm afraid there won't be enough in the store." ”

"......" some pots...... Shiraishi was shocked by this measure, and he looked at the long row of pots of various models that came with the store, which were neatly arranged, which was not enough?

He nodded very reluctantly: "I'll buy two more and come back, but ...... What's that, we're not very rich now, so you can save some when you use it. ”

Butterfly Shinobu may have remembered the candle fuel just now, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, I won't waste it on purpose." ”

Is that going to be wasted unintentionally? Shiraishi sighed, nodded in agreement, and went out.

Fortunately, he didn't plan to open a store for the time being, and he didn't dare to eat the food cooked by Butterfly Ninja, so if you calculate it, the pot is really not a necessity, if you can use it for props...... If it's bad, it's a few bad.

Shiraishi didn't think about opening a store to make money right away. At his level, based on the geographical location of this store, not to mention that the principal may not be enough, even if it is really opened, it is difficult to say whether it will make money or lose money......

……

Shiraishi took a ride to the school, found the cabinet on the left side of the research room, and opened it to see that a row of not thin envelopes were neatly placed, flashing the eyes of the poor dog.

Shiraishi stood in front of the cabinet and looked at it for a while, then took one, poured it out and took a cursory look, and it contained ten 10,000 yen bills.

Food, accommodation and travel expenses, and a lot of subsidies have been given...... In this way, even if he changes the location of the event ten times, he is completely acceptable.

With the envelope in hand, Shiraishi walked out of school and went to pharmacies, supermarkets and other places for a walk.

In the evening, he finally finished shopping, and got on the bus with large bags and small bags, looking like an old grandfather who carried special products into the city to watch the baby.

Shiraishi even thought about using it without bringing a mortar, but Butterfly Shinobu didn't ask for this, and when she planted trees and rubbed onion bombs before, Shiraishi found that she seemed to be able to bring some small tools by herself, so she didn't buy them first.

It was okay to get on the bus.

But when he got out of the car through the front door, Shiraishi didn't move - there were so many things that he was actually stuck in the door.

"It's not good for young people to have such little strength!"

The enthusiastic grandmother who wanted to get out of the car saw his predicament and rolled up her sleeves with a smile: "I'll help you." ”

Shiraishi just wanted to say that it wasn't a matter of strength, it was a matter of physics, but before the first word could be spit out, there was a strong push behind him on the bag he was carrying.

Shiraishi fluttered off the car unprepared, but the person barely fell, but the sack containing three or four pots was hurriedly thrown out, and went straight to a passerby.

Blocked by the sack, Shiraishi only saw the man's school uniform skirt clearly, and the slender calves under the skirt, which looked like a thin girl.

He snorted and shouted "dodge" remedyly, but he felt that it was over, and he only hoped that he would not smash the other party and disfigure......

Before the thought was finished, there was a soft bang, and the other party caught his sack steadily.

Shiraishi steadied himself and watched all this with a sense of delusion, when he saw a head suddenly poke out from behind the sack.

Mao Lilan tilted his head, and when he saw that it was him, he smiled kindly:

"Mr. Shiraishi, what a coincidence. How did you buy so many things? It must be heavy, can I get some more for you? ”

"......" Shiraishi silently put down the heart that had just been hanging, "Thank you, I can take it." ”

The bus stop was still a short distance from home, and it was awkward to be silent all the time.

Bai Shi looked at Mao Lilan, who was helping him hold the pot, and was speechless: "You seem to be a little excited?" ”

"Huh? It's so obvious. Mao Lilan smiled embarrassedly, then lowered his voice, and said to him mysteriously:

"Have you heard of the Middle World Art Pavilion in Kagawa Ward? It's not far from here. ”
