Destination That Makes Night Stroll Fun

 

One of them, who were talking like idiots, noticed us and hurriedly stood up and bowed.

「…..uwooooo! Master, madam! Thanks for your hard work!」

「Oh……thanks for your hard work! Excuse me!」

The rest of them looked at those two, turned around, greeted us immediately, and ran off somewhere fast as if they owed me money.

They’re like students who were found by a teacher in a convenience store in the middle of the night!

There’s no way I’ll get angry with just this.

I got myself together and went to the entrance of the late night store and pushed open the wooden framed glass door. Smell of various foods wafted out from the inside.

I wonder if there isn’t enough ventilation. It smells as appetizing as the Chinese restaurant I pass by after school.

If I smelled this at night, I would not be able to go home empty handed.

I entered the late night store with a sense of anticipation and saw Mince, a scalekin adventurer, in front of the cash register near the entrance.

「Is it done…..is it cooked? Oi, tell me?」

「Not yet, Mince-san. It just started boiling.」

「Muu……can’t you make it quicker?」

「When you asked for a pot au feu, I said it will take a while, you said you’re fine with it.」

「Yeah…..but, I really want to eat a pot au feu now.」

Mince is staring at a pot of pot au feu placed in front of the cash register and having a conversation with a clerk that looks like she’s already having a headache.

What is she doing here this late?

「Ah, Master! Madam! Thanks for your hard work!」

「Thanks for your hard work~」

「Yeah」

When Mince spotted us, she greeted us with a serious expression but her scaled tail was reaching toward the pot au feu as if she’s about to take it.

Pot au feu in the middle of the night……could this girl come here every day?

「Mince, do you come here often?」

「No, not that much……only around 6 days in week.」

Oi oi

「…….that’s what the world calls every day」

「Wha……that’s……」

Mince looks surprised at Laura-san’s comment but, why is she surprised? I’m the one who was surprised!

Buying and eating something every night will make you fat even if you’re doing manual labor.

Leaving her to her own business, Laura-san and I look around the store.

On the wooden shelves inside the store, there are many daily necessities such as bandages, diaper cloths, sanitary products, and simple medicines.

The shelves for shelf-stable foods are different from those of the convenience store from my previous world. There are only a few products since not many can be kept for a long period of time.

There are piles of dried noodles, fried noodles, and flour that my family distributes but I’m sure that everyone has had enough of this kind of food.

There are also pretzels and cookies in jars with cork lids but these items would be hard to come by during the daytime when freshly baked goods are available at a slightly lower price.

If only vinyl existed here, there would be more products on sale……but that’s not my area of expertise.

「Hey, what’s this?」

「Ah, it’s a cookie with dried fruits kneaded into it.」

「I see, does it taste good?」

As I pondered, Laura-san tossed the sweet treats that got her attention to her hand basket.

Of course, she didn’t even look at the price. As expected of a genuine noble princess.

If only we had many customers like her……

「What’s this?」

「Underwear desu yo」

「Underwear? Why would an underwear……?」

「Maa, just think of it for emergency situation……」

On the same shelf as the women’s underwear are makeup remover and lotion, perfume, toothbrushes, this and that, and others that can be considered as a sleepover set.

There are a lot of women in my house so there will come a time when they will need these items.

Looking at them, I get the feeling that it has more demand than other products like alcohol and snacks.

However, the best seller of this store is the food and drinks late at night and it’s important to operate according to the clientele’s demand.
