Chapter 1001: New Year (1)
A few days have passed since the celebration began, and the lively atmosphere has not subsided with time, but has intensified. This pavilion is still crowded with guests every day, but today it is particularly busy.
Walking in the corridor of this flower pavilion, it is not the first time that Shiki has seen the figure of the clerk hurrying by. Just thinking about Hatsu Sakura's new friend, Yuzu, passed by him with something, probably because he was too anxious and didn't even say hello.
"Yikes!"
An exclamation came from the side, and Shiji's eyes quickly helped Yuzu, who almost fell.
"It's okay."
"Ahh Mr. Four Seasons. Thank you. I'm really, I'm sorry! Sorry to bother you! ”
Yuzu hurriedly waved her hand and replied at a loss.
"I didn't bother."
Shiki leans down to help Yuzu pick up things like futons that have fallen on the ground.
"It's been a busy day in the store."
"Yes, because it's the most important day of the year."
"Remember it's New Year."
In the world where this flower pavilion was originally located, today is the day before the New Year.
"Hmm."
"Have you been so busy in previous years?"
"No, that's not it."
Yuzu shook her head.
"In previous years, it was busy, but not this year. Because of the celebration, there are many more guests at this flower pavilion than usual. ”
This pavilion is temporarily connected to the relay world, so there are many more guests who don't usually have it. The combination of celebrations and festivals seems to have caused a lot of burden here.
"Although I had made more preparations before, I didn't expect it to be more than expected."
"That's right."
"But everybody's happy!"
Maybe he was afraid that the four seasons would think he was complaining, and Yuzu quickly explained.
"Being able to provide services to everyone and make everyone smile is the happiest thing for us!"
"Yuzu loves the work here."
"Hmm."
Yuzu naturally smiled and looked very happy.
"Yuzu! What are you so lazy here! ”
"Yikes! Xiao Hao. ”
Turning his head, he saw a girl with long straight dark hair standing not far away, one of the fox clerks in this flower pavilion. The other party gives people a serious feeling, and seems to be a little angry with Yuzu, but there seems to be something different.
"Ahh Coquette! Found! ”
Suddenly, Hatsuzakura appeared out of nowhere, looking wary of something.
"Hatsuzakura...... Huh!? ”
Before Yuzu could say hello, the whole person was picked up by Hatsu Sakura, and then thrown into her arms.
"Hmm!"
"Xiao Hao is optimistic about your little pomelo."
The cheeks of the first cherry blossom were slightly red, and she was stunned and didn't know what to say.
"Hatsuzakura, don't cause trouble. People are still working. ”
Shiki patted Hatsuzakura on the head.
"Ahh That's right, work work! ”
Yuzu hurriedly came out of her arms and picked up the things she was carrying.
"Yuzu is busy today?"
"It's a preparation for Chinese New Year's Eve."
He explained briefly.
"Woo~~~ Then Hatsuzakura is also here to help!"
"How can that be!"
Hao immediately objected.
"How can you get a guest to help?"
"Ahh
Seriously rejected by the other party, Hatsuzakura turned her head and asked Shiki for help.
"There's nothing you can't do."
I understand the meaning of the first cherry blossoms, and the four seasons have no opinion.
"This Flower Pavilion belongs to the Desolate Beast Guild, right?"
"Yes."
"Hatsu Sakura can also be regarded as a member of the Desolate Beast Guild, and I have always been taken care of by Miss Yu, so we are not exactly guests, and there is nothing wrong with helping the store."
The four seasons fundamentally negated the reason for Hao's refusal, leaving the other party at a loss for a long time.
"Well, let's go ask the shopkeeper."
Yuzu pulled the corner of Lawei's clothes, and the other party glanced at Yuzu and sighed without objecting.
So several people immediately found the female shopkeeper, and after listening to the four seasons' statement, the female shopkeeper reluctantly agreed.
The others joined in when they heard that Shiki was going to help out at the store. With their help, the store is indeed fully staffed.
Service industries such as hotels are not something that can be easily taken over by laymen, but fortunately they still have a lot of professionals here. Akika and Miyuki take on the job of waitresses in the front room, and as the once popular maid Miyuki is very familiar with entertaining guests (although she looks very reluctant), and Akika is also very skilled, and it is said that she has done similar work. Others are largely behind the scenes. The accounting was handed over to Xia Xu and Mai Qin, who is comparable to the superpower of a human brain computer, Mei Qin naturally came to the account with his hands, and Xia Xu could completely deal with the huge flow of people. Kitchen work such as hand-working and washing dishes was entrusted to Huangquan, Kagura, and Anna. The rest of Shiki, Hatsuzakura, and Nepu took on the task of running errands outside.
Originally, the store had a lot of things in stock, but because of the unimaginable number of customers, the things prepared in the store were almost consumed, which was the biggest problem in addition to receiving customers. There weren't enough people to pick up people to buy things and receive guests, and now the problem was solved because of their help.
With the list handed over to them by the female shopkeeper, the four seasons set off. The kiosk has a fixed place to buy goods, right down the hill in the town, so they don't have to run around looking for things.
Came to the fixed purchase location, which had been closed for the New Year, but because it was a list of this flower pavilion, the boss prepared the goods for them without complaining. By the time the goods were ready, three trolleys were piled up, and then they pushed away enough goods to block the view under the stunned gaze of the boss.
Next, they have to push the cart up the mountain again, which is definitely a relatively difficult journey for ordinary people, but neither the four seasons nor the first cherry blossoms will be affected, and if it weren't for the restrictions here, they wouldn't even have to walk these roads.
"You ...... It's so strong~~~"
Nepu panted and looked at the two of them without the slightest tiredness.
"Do you want to take a break?"
"Yay!"
After saying that, Nep ran to a bench on the side of the street, next to what seemed to be a small snack shop.
Just as Shiki and Hatsuzakura were about to go over and rest, suddenly the sound of people shouting not far from the street came from the sound of fearful shouts that did not match the atmosphere of the festival.
"Help!"
"Run!"
"It's a youkai!"
From the other side of the street, quite a few villagers ran over, as if they were avoiding some kind of pursuit.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and a house collapsed, and many people were crushed by the fragments of the house, and then they turned into balls with a bang. This is quite in line with the festive atmosphere, and people who are protected by the system will only become dumplings and will not be injured, which greatly reduces the sense of fear.
However, just because the fear has decreased does not mean that there is no problem, and I saw a huge youkai jump out from the other side of the street.
