151. Make a reservation
Nobita with a vegetable basket in his hand and Hoshino with nothing in his hand walked side by side on the side of the street.
"Didi"!
One or two cars drove past the two of them from time to time, and the direction of the cars seemed to be heading for the commercial street.
Tsukimitai is just a very ordinary town.
Although there are also commercial streets, the scale of commercial streets is not very large.
However, it is enough to meet most of the material needs of the people in a town.
Nobita's father Nobi Shinsuke is an employee of a company, but Nobi Shinsuke's company is not in Tsukimidai.
Shinsuke Nobi needs to go to the subway station in Tsukimidai Town to take the subway every day to go to work. After a crowded journey, he will arrive at a commercial district that is more prosperous than Tsukimidai Commercial Street.
The company Nobi Shinsuke works for is in that bustling business district.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Hoshino and Nobita came to the edge of the commercial street.
After saying goodbye, the two parted on the edge of the commercial street.
They already know that the things they want to buy are different on the way, and they have to go to different places in the commercial street.
Because he had already been here once, Hoshino quickly found the store he was looking for - a stationery store.
Five minutes later, Hoshino walked out of the stationery store.
Hoshino originally wanted to go home directly.
But in the store, I heard two elementary school students mention Pokémon when they were talking about the latest manga, which made Hoshino suddenly curious.
After a few seconds of thinking, Hoshino walked towards the comic shop.
When Hoshino came not far from the comic shop, he witnessed a strange scene - four or five elementary school students surrounded the shopkeeper with angry faces, and the shopkeeper could only dismiss them with a smile.
After the four or five elementary school students left, Hoshino continued walking towards the comic shop.
"I'm really sorry, it's gone today, it's gone, if you still want it, wait until tomorrow, I'm very sorry."
Hoshino didn't say anything yet, the owner of the comic shop immediately talked a lot when he saw Hoshino.
Several big question marks popped up on Hoshino's head.
This made Hoshino wonder if the owner of the comic shop had a serious illness.
"Well, can I ask, what do you mean by what you just said?"
Asking if you don't understand has always been Hoshino's "excellent character".
"Huh? You don't know?"
Hoshino shook his head.
"really do not know?"
Hoshino shook his head again.
"Really, really don't know?"
Hoshino's forehead was immediately covered with black lines, well, now he is sure.
The owner of this comic shop is probably seriously ill.
For a person with a "serious illness", Hoshino didn't want to say anything, turned around and planned to go to another comic shop.
After all, how could there be only this comic shop in front of Hoshino in a small commercial street?
But before Hoshino could take two steps, he was grabbed by the owner of the comic shop.
Hoshino turned his head suspiciously.
"I'm very sorry."
The owner of the comic shop showed a professional smile.
"I thought you were here to buy the 'Pokémon' comics. 'Pokémon' is a new comic that came out recently, and it exploded as soon as it came out."
"Generally, there are no 'Pokémon' comics sold by this point."
The owner of the comic shop didn't care whether Hoshino, a "primary student", could understand what he said.
Based on the principle of not letting a customer go, just explain to Hoshino.
After listening to the comic shop owner's explanation, Hoshino finally understood what happened to the elementary school student just now and why the comic shop owner said that to him.
At the same time, Hoshino breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the owner of this comic shop is quite normal, he is not a serious illness, it's okay, it's okay.
He has always kept a respectful distance from people with serious illnesses.
Since the owner of the comic shop is a normal person, they can continue to talk.
"Does that mean there are no 'Pokémon' comics for sale today?"
Hoshino asked.
"Yes, if you want, you'd better come early tomorrow."
Since there is no manga he wants, Hoshino doesn't plan to stay here any longer.
"Hey, don't go. Although I don't have 'Pokemon' comics here, there are still other excellent comics, such as..."
Seeing that Hoshino was about to leave without much thought, the owner of the comic shop hurriedly asked to stay.
But Hoshino was not interested at all.
Just looking at the person walking towards him, Hoshino paused.
"Little husband?"
"Hoshino?"
Hoshino and Xiaofu looked at the person in front of them, Qi Qi stopped.
"Are you also here to buy comics? Hahaha, yes, the new comic 'Pokémon' that came out recently is really good."
Xiao Fu seemed to be in a good mood, not only did not run on Hoshino, but said to Hoshino with a smile on his face.
Without waiting for Hoshino to say anything, the little husband with his schoolbag on his back walked straight past Hoshino and arrived in front of the owner of the comic shop.
"Old rules!"
"I know!"
The comic shop owner responded with a smile and walked into the inner room.
Hoshino, who had already started to go home, stopped when he saw this scene.
He wanted to see what the little husband was going to do.
Xiaofu, as a frequent customer of buying comics, shouldn't be unaware of the popularity of "Pokémon" comics.
He should know that the "Pokémon" comics have been sold out at this time.
After a while, the owner of the comic shop walked out of the back room of the comic shop with a "guilty conscience", holding a book in his hand.
After running in front of Xiao Fu at the speed of a [-]-meter race, the owner of the comic shop handed the book to Xiao Fu.
As if he had practiced countless times, Xiao Fu took the manga and quickly stuffed it into the schoolbag behind his back.
Immediately after, Xiao Fu handed over the money to the owner of the comic shop.
Hoshino didn't need to read or guess to know that the book that the owner of the comic shop handed to Xiao Fu was definitely a "Pokemon" comic.
Otherwise they don't have to be at all.
"Boss, didn't you say that there are no 'Pokémon' comics anymore?"
The owner of the comic shop looked at Hoshino in surprise, as if he didn't expect Hoshino to be able to guess it.
"Well, the 'Pokémon' comics really don't exist anymore."
"The manga I gave him has already been ordered by him. If you want to order it, you can tell me."
"However, since it's a reservation, you can enjoy the right not to wait in line, the money... naturally needs to be more."
The owner of the comic shop rubbed his hands without any embarrassment on his face.
After all, it is the nature of businessmen to pursue profit.
"Sure enough, no matter where you are, it's easy to do things with money."
Hoshino sighed in his heart.
Naturally, it was impossible for him to make the so-called reservations, and he didn't even plan to buy comics in the first place.
He just wanted to see what the "Pokémon" comics published by the publishing house looked like.
