Chapter 50 Coincidence?
"What?"
Miyazawa Maki glanced at him strangely.
"It got on the corner of my mouth."
Sawayama Haruno felt a little helpless.
Can't this guy just enjoy his ice cream? Why is there white cream around his mouth? It looks weird.
It would be fine if we were eating at home, but now we are out there, so we should pay attention to our behavior.
"Well"
Miyazawa Maki realized what was happening later and her pretty face turned slightly red. She wiped the ice cream from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand in a panic. Seeing this, Sawayama Haruno was even more speechless.
After taking out a pack of tissues from his pocket and wiping her off, the two of them walked towards the shopping mall not far away.
Ginza can be said to be the most prosperous area in Tokyo. The total area of this area is actually not very large, but the regional economic value is so high that it is terrifying.
As the most well-known area in Tokyo's business circle, Ginza naturally has many top-notch Michelin restaurants.
But generally speaking, if you want to eat at a place like this, you have to make a reservation several days in advance. At that time, Sawayama Haruno had never thought about eating here, so it was naturally impossible for him to go there now.
Fortunately, Miyazawa Maki didn't mind too much. She wasn't actually very hungry and was completely focused on shopping.
After finding a restaurant that looked good near the mall, the two took a number at the door, waited for a while, and then went in.
Looking at the crowded restaurant, Maki Miyazawa's expression was obviously not very good.
"what happened?"
Sawayama Haruno flipped through the menu in his hand and glanced at Miyazawa Maki.
The other person's face was slightly pale, and I don't know if it was because he had just eaten ice cream on an empty stomach.
"nothing."
Miyazawa Maki drooped her eyes and said listlessly: "There are too many people. It's uncomfortable."
"So you have a shy side?"
"I am allergic to people. Are you satisfied?"
Miyazawa Maki said unhappily.
There were so many people here that she and Sawayama Haruno had no choice but to sit at a long table connected to other guests' tables.
Although this kind of restaurant layout is not uncommon in the island country, Maki Miyazawa doesn't like other people getting so close to her, especially strangers.
Although there is a young lady sitting on the other side of her, she still feels uncomfortable instinctively.
After thinking about it, Miyazawa Maki moved her high chair and moved closer to Sawayama Haruno.
Compared to someone she didn't know, she would rather be closer to Sawayama Haruno.
Yes, this is a helpless measure, and I am not deliberately trying to get closer to the other person.
"Let's have some buckwheat noodles. Two boxes per person. If it's not enough, we can get more."
Sawayama Haruno didn't think too much about it. He was looking at the menu and wondering what to eat for lunch.
"I'll only eat one box, I'll leave the other one for you." Miyazawa Maki said in a low voice.
"All right."
After hearing what she said, Zeshan Haruno didn't force himself to continue, and waved the menu in his hand to the busy waiter not far away. He actually didn't have much appetite, but it was no problem to eat Maki's portion as well.
After all, a serving of soba noodles is only slightly larger than a palm.
It looks like a lot because the noodles are placed in a large plate. In fact, they are placed in a "teacup" filled with soy sauce or soup, and a whole stack of noodles can be quickly eaten in a few mouthfuls.
The serving speed of soba noodles was not slow. Not long after Sawayama Haruno placed the order, the noodles for both of them were served.
Miyazawa Maki seemed to have no appetite throughout the whole process and couldn't even finish a small dish of noodles. It was obvious that she was affected by the crowded flow of people in the store.
So after finishing three plates of noodles, Sawayama Haruno immediately paid the bill and took her away.
After coming out of the restaurant, the two entered the mall not long after.
Although there are still a lot of people here, the surrounding environment has become much more spacious, and Miyazawa Maki finally no longer feels like she can't breathe.
After Zeshan Haruno took her to the third floor and saw the sign of the dry food store, her complexion completely improved.
There were no waiters standing at the door of the dry food store to serve customers. Instead, everyone was inside replenishing the dry food that had been reduced at any time.
Standing at the entrance and looking inside, you can see rows of white transparent small cabinets placed on both sides of the road, filled with a wide variety of candies and chocolates.
Plastic bags are used to pack the food, and a wooden long-handled spoon is placed next to it for scooping.
There is a note next to the long-handled spoon explaining that it is made of pure handmade chocolate and can also be counted as one of the products.
Miyazawa Maki was secretly excited by what she saw, and even the air seemed to be filled with the aroma of chocolate and candy.
"Is this all here?!"
She pulled Zeshan Haruno's sleeve and spoke with excitement in her tone.
"All of them are. There are notices outside explaining what materials they are made of. Just take the small bags next to you and pack whatever you like." Sawayama Haruno smiled. "It is said that the small display cabinets on the upper floor used to store chocolates are also made of chocolate, but I have not been up there much, so I don't know if it is true."
“Awesome, it’s just like what I saw on Youtube.”
"Actually, most dry food stores are like this, it's just that you haven't been here before."
Before Sawayama Haruno could finish his words, Miyazawa Maki had already left him and went inside to "fish for candy".
Seeing her so "proactive", Sawayama Haruno was also happy to have some free time.
After grabbing a few bags and boxes, he began to select the dry food he would use to make desserts and cocktails.
Unlike Maki Miyazawa, whose purpose was not clear, he was very efficient in purchasing and found all his things in a short time. However, at this time, Maki Miyazawa had only visited less than half of the store.
There is something else going on. Haruno Sawayama is going to go to the cafe next to the mall to meet Maki's female classmate from junior high school.
It would definitely be impossible for him to continue accompanying Maki shopping.
If he brought the other person along to meet them, it would be hard to say whether they would quarrel or not, so after thinking it over again and again, Sawayama Haruno let Miyazawa Maki walk around the mall alone, while he went to meet the female classmate first.
Thanks to the dry food store, Maki Miyazawa felt fresh enough. Although she was a little dissatisfied with Haruno Sawayama's abandonment of her, Maki didn't say much.
Just like that, after buying dry food, Zeshan Haruno temporarily stored his things in the storage box in the mall, and then rushed to the nearby coffee shop without stopping.
However, what he didn't notice was that just as he left the mall through Gate D, two people entered the mall through the same entrance.
——One of them was a petite girl.
