Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 304

When Natsuki and Shiraishi Rika walked to the mall together, Yamamoto Ryoko and a group of people were talking "happily" around Tachibana Aya in front of the mall entrance. At least the atmosphere seemed quite happy.But Xia Zhi, who knew what she wanted to do, would not be fooled by superficial imagination like someone else.

"Hey! This way!"

Yamamoto Ryoko noticed Natsuki and Shiraishi Rika and waved hello.The two walked over.

"You are so slow." Yamamoto Ryoko complained.

Xia Zhi had nothing to express except a chuckle, but Shiraishi Lihua talked to her honestly.

"You were walking too fast."

"Hmph! What's wrong with girls wanting to go shopping in a hurry?" Yamamoto Ryoko looked at Xia Zhi, and stretched out his hand: "Bring it here."

Of course Xia Zhi knew what she was talking about, so he took out the discount coupons he had just divided from his pocket and handed them to her.

"Most of them are here, it should be enough."

"That's enough, that's enough. I won't be able to use them all anyway. Take two more." Ryoko Yamamoto stuffed two more discount coupons into Xia Zhi's hands: "Take them for later use."

"What's a good spare here?"

"No matter what, let's go first!" Yamamoto Ryoko quickly ran away, and then drove her sheep away like a shepherd. Tachibana Aya was obviously a member of the sheep flock and couldn't leave.

After knowing what Ryoko Yamamoto wanted to do, Xia Zhi felt that it didn't matter. It was just a purchase anyway, so how much could happen.Shiraishi Rika also understood what Ryoko Yamamoto wanted to do, and when it was no longer a secret, she didn't care so much.

"Then let's go. Although there aren't many things to buy, I'm not familiar with this mall... Where is Xia Zhijun?"

"I've only been here three or four times, and they're all just to buy ingredients." Xia Zhi glanced at the list Baishi Lihua held in her hand: "I should tell Liangzi just now to let us buy ingredients, they I don’t know how many people in that circle know how to cook, but Ryoko and Tachibana definitely can’t..."

"It seems so..." Shiraishi Rika thought for a moment: "Although I have told Ryoko before about what ingredients to buy, I don't think she can remember what she said."

"Then you still let her buy it..."

"Ryoko strongly requested it, but I can't say no to her..."

That's probably true. If Shiraishi Rika isn't strong, she won't have much of a deterrent effect.

"Anyway, give her a call or send her a message first, so that they don't rush to buy ingredients."

Shiraishi Lihua nodded, lowered her head and fiddled with her phone.

The two of them wandered around the mall, and it took a while before Shiraishi Rika said, "Ryoko didn't reply to me."

"I guessed it. Let's do this for now. Anyway, I think if it's you, you can probably make pretty good food as long as it's edible. You won't lose money at all." Xia Zhi looked around and didn't find that he needed to buy anything. Something: "Go and look over there, there's nothing here."

"Ah."

Although I have been here several times, Xia Zhi has not visited the entire shopping mall. The convenience store near my home is the most frequent purchase of daily necessities and ingredients, because almost all the things I need can be regarded as With everything available, Xia Zhi had no reason to abandon the convenience store that was a minute or two away from the apartment and choose a shopping mall that was several times further away.

The first few times I came here, I just bought some ingredients or other things.As for those durable items, such as cups and plates, the store manager comes to buy them himself, or goes to a store that specializes in making these items to order them in batches according to his own requirements.

This is the first time that I have come here to personally select something like this.

And there is another issue to consider. The school festival is only an event that only lasts about three days a year. There are factors similar to social practice in it, but there is another thing that cannot be ignored.The school will provide a small budget for each class or club that holds separate activities. How to make reasonable use of these budgets or seek financial support outside the budget is a key point. Another key point is the recycling of props.

If it is a coffee shop that has been open for a long time, quilts and the like will not be wasted, but this is just an event for the school festival... Generally speaking, these temporarily unnecessary things will become souvenirs and be shared, or Centralized recycling and then converted into class fees, but the amount will certainly not be too much.

Controlling this amount means being able to control the expenditure for this school festival. As for the income... that depends on the ability on the other hand.

Although such things are rarely mentioned in novels or anime, this is indeed a problem that needs to be considered in a school festival.But Xia Zhi feels that she is very lucky. With a wall hanging like Shiraishi Rika in the class, she should be able to control the necessary things and the quantity, and it will be okay even if she buys too much. Her cooking skills alone are enough. Can completely wipe out this expenditure, and even earn unexpected money...

The school festival is such a relaxing event.

Xia Zhi doesn't have to worry about the school festival at all, as long as he does what he should do.

While walking around the mall with Shiraishi Rika, when passing the food section, Shiraishi Rika looked around curiously: "There are a lot of things, and they seem to be very cheap."

"Yeah..." Xia Zhi thought that he should buy some and make breakfast or lunch for himself.But don’t rush, just buy everything you need to buy and then come back to buy it.

Somewhat surprisingly, Shiraishi Rika seems to be quite interested in this place.

"What's wrong, did you see what you wanted?"

"Ah, no. I just think it's very lively here or something."

"After all, it's a place that sells ingredients. It's normal for it to be lively, right?"

"Really? Our ingredients are all bought by Ms. Qiandao. I only buy ready-made ones from convenience stores when I want to make snacks."

……

Xia Zhi felt that it was better not to comment casually.

Xia Zhi felt that it didn't matter if he could eat delicious food.

After wandering around for a while, Xia Zhi discovered a problem.The layout of this shopping mall is a bit strange. You can see the ingredients at first sight when you walk in from the main entrance. This is probably the place with the most people. Xia Zhi has only been here before. Xia Zhi randomly chose a direction and continued walking. The food section has been transformed into a snack section.Although someone may be very interested in this place, neither Natsuki nor Shiraishi Rika particularly like snacks, and Natsuki has no interest in this place.

This place is connected with the ingredients area, although it is not enough to put snacks and ingredients on the same shelf, but in fact it is almost the same.The strange thing is that Xia Zhi didn't find the fruit section that should have been placed next to the ingredients section.Although no one has clearly stipulated that fruits should be near ingredients, but...Xia Zhi has already gotten used to it.

"Xia Zhijun, we've come to the end here, and we didn't see any paper cups or anything like that." Shiraishi Lihua looked over in confusion: "Is it on the other side?"

"I don't know, I rarely come here. Let's go and take a look first."

The structure of the shopping mall is not circular, but straight. After walking from one side to the end, you have to go up or down the stairs, or you can only turn back. It is simply a divine design.

Xia Zhi immediately decided to turn around with Shiraishi Lihua to have a look. The moment Xia Zhi turned his head, he saw several familiar shadows flashing past.It can't be said that it passes by in a flash, just like the assassins in Ubisoft's engine who can choose to escape into the crowd and then lose sight of everything.

Xia Zhi didn't even need to look carefully, he knew there must be a problem ahead.After all, this is not a game or a movie. In reality, there are not so many extras who pretend that strange things have never happened. Near the direction where Xia Zhi is looking, there is a young man who is buying snacks with his child. Her mother was looking behind the container that Xia Zhi couldn't see. If there was no one behind this container, Xia Zhi would dare to pull upside down... Forget it, be civilized.

Knowing that there was someone there, Xia Zhi guessed that it might be Yamamoto Ryoko's group of girls.It's just right, now I can go over and change the things I'm responsible for buying.

However, when Xia Zhi walked over with Shiraishi Lihua, Xia Zhi did not find anyone there.The mother and daughter I saw just now were also looking at other products next to the shelves.

nobody?
Not bad, Xia Zhi was glad that he didn't finish his sentence just now.

"I thought I saw Ryoko just now. Where are you?"

Xia Zhi looked back at her: "Have you seen her?"

"Yes." Shiraishi Lihua nodded, and then looked around again: "But where did they go?"

Xia Zhi didn't see them either, but he knew someone who saw them.

Xia Zhi walked towards the mother and daughter who were buying snacks nearby.

"Hello, could you excuse me for a moment?"

"what happened?"

"I want to ask, did you just see the girls wearing the same school uniform as us? Their mobile phones can't get through, we are looking for them."

"I saw it, I just left." Then she pointed Xia Zhi in a direction that was roughly crowded with people.Over there is the area where clothes are sold. Yamamoto Ryoko and the others would probably be like ice melting into the sea when they ran in. If they didn't come out on their own, Natsuki probably wouldn't be able to find them.

"How to find this?"

Although he knew that they were probably following them and wanted to do something, Xia Zhi felt that he didn't have the ability to find them out - instead of spending that time looking for someone, it would be better to go buy things quickly and end it early, leaving them Run out on your own.

"How about we go shopping first?"

"we can only do this."

The two continued to walk forward, and after two steps, Xia Zhi stopped again.

I have to say that high school students in this country are simply the weirdest among weirdos.Although he has tried his best to hide himself, and even learned the skills of the detectives in anime to disguise themselves, but...

This was the first time that Xia Zhi saw someone using potato chips as a newspaper to cover his face. It was really difficult for him to read the potato chip bag as a newspaper.Not to mention that he was wearing the school uniform of the same school that Xia Zhi was very familiar with. If Xia Zhi could still ignore this, then Xia Zhi might as well just go play StarCraft.

The first time she saw him, Xia Zhi thought he was one of the girls who came with him. Fortunately, he was far enough away that Xia Zhi noticed that the other person was not wearing a skirt.Xia Zhi, who noticed this, looked carefully and found the relatively obvious features of the other party.

Isn't this Qingfeng?But aren't they going to the game arcade to play?
Xia Zhi was hesitating whether to go forward and talk to him, but just by standing not far away and looking at him, Xia Zhi could vaguely feel his efforts... Should he go and expose him?Xia Zhi felt that he couldn't decide.

"Xia Zhijun."

Xia Zhi felt his sleeve being pulled, and turned his head to look at Shiraishi Lihua.

"what happened to you?"

"Oh, it's alright, let's go."

Probably she didn't see Qing Feng who was reading the potato chips as a newspaper not far away, so it's better not to go over and expose him, it's embarrassing.

Pulled by Shiraishi Rika, Natsuki walked in the other direction and glanced around for a moment. He had become sensitive to this school uniform just now because of the presence of Ryoko Yamamoto, Qingfeng and others. At this glance, good guy... ...There are three others nearby, and the only ones Xia Zhi can clearly recognize are Qingfeng and Tiantong.

How many people are here?Xia Zhi was too lazy to care.

Just pretend it doesn't exist.

Ignoring Xia Zhi who was being pulled by her, she didn't know what she was thinking. Shiraishi Lihua felt very bad now, very bad. Her heart was pounding so loudly that she was a little afraid of the person she was pulling. Everybody can hear it.

Although it was the method taught by my mother, even though she said just relax, be natural, be natural...

But actually doing it is completely different!
If you continue like this, will you die?

"Lihua?"

"..."

"Lihua?"

The sudden strength to resist herself brought Shiraishi Rika back to her senses.

...was discovered?
He turned his head slightly stiffly.

"What's wrong?"

"I want to say that we have gone a little too far. I saw the disposable paper cups just now. Let's go and take a look first."

"Yes, really? That's true."

Xia Zhi looked at Shiraishi Lihua who was a little out of sorts, and suddenly remembered a certain rumor about rich people.

——Most wealthy people are not used to places where civilians gather in large numbers, because such places are extremely ungraceful to them.

Originally, it was just prejudice, and it would never happen to a good child like Shiraishi Rika. But unexpectedly, it turned out to be true, and the example was right around me. The world was really wonderful.

In this case, it would be better to finish shopping and leave quickly.

"Let's go, finish the shopping quickly and it will be over quickly."

Xia Zhi gently broke free from the sleeve that had been grabbed, just when Bai Shi Lihua felt a little lost, Xia Zhi grabbed her hand with his backhand and walked back.

Someone's body temperature rises sharply after half a second.
