The doorbell for the 24-hour convenience store was ringing, and the faint sunlight outside the window was shining on the red mat at the door. A few sounds of traffic flow on the street were brought into the store by fresh air, and there was also a man wearing a brown work clothes and a baseball cap who walked into the store. The long hair that had not been combed behind the brim of the hat was laid out from the opening. It can be seen that the man had not taken care of himself for a while.

Two clerks wearing staff uniforms and hats behind the counter said in unison, "Welcome to you." One of the female clerks lit up after seeing the man who was walking in with his eyes lowered and looked inactive, and said, "Sir, are you here again?"

"おす(日)." The man agreed casually without even raising his head.

The convenience store is quiet, unlike supermarkets in big cities, which are always like this. Xiaocai TVs are hung on the walls with the same soap operas and TV advertisements. The customers between the shelves keep quietly selecting goods, shopping and checkout without disturbing anyone... So men like to come here to shop and come almost every day. What he cares more about is that others should not disturb themselves.

"It's getting late. It's already noon now. Are you still eating bento the same today? This is very unnutrition. Occasionally, you have to buy vegetables and make some fresh dishes by yourself!" The female clerk stuck her hands on the counter and poked her head out to look at the man passing by in front of her and said with a smile. The male clerk beside her seemed to shrink back in awe when she saw the man passing by.

"It's very troublesome if you don't have time to do it." The man responded briefly, took a shopping basket from the passing counter and walked towards the corner of the convenience store and disappeared.

This is probably the only thing that makes this convenience store feel a little troublesome, that is, the female clerk is extremely enthusiastic, so enthusiastic that it makes people feel uncomfortable, but ignores this problem, this convenience store can still score eight points in the minds of men. By the way, the ten that can never be exceeded is an unmanned supermarket, because even the necessary communication process for paying the bill can be omitted.

"...what." The male clerk behind the counter looked at the man's back and walked away before he dared to mutter in a low voice.

"What?" The female clerk heard the complaint of her colleague and turned her head to look at him and asked.

"That attitude, Meijia, don't you think this person has always been a little strange?" The male clerk whispered, "I come to buy bento every noon. I am so sloppy. I have been living in the dilapidated rental house next door. My face looks a bit ferocious, and I don't feel like I'm a good person..."

"Is it evil? It seems a bit..." The female clerk scratched her neck, "But I think he is the one from Tamao."

"Tamao?" The male clerk looked full of question marks.

"Serizawa Tamao, (Serizawa Tamao), a movie role played by Takayuki Yamada. Have you never seen that movie?" The young female clerk looked at her colleague who was about the same age as her, and was skeptical about his movie reading.

"Uh... I usually play PS games." My colleague seemed a little embarrassed, and from time to time he looked at the back of the man who was wandering in front of the freezer food area, thinking in his heart that the "Asasi Boy" (the gentle male protagonist in Japanese comic template style, such as Toma Kamijo and Tanjiro Sago) were no longer popular? Everyone likes the handsome bad guy type?

"But he doesn't look good, he always feels like the kind of bad guy who sucks things." The colleague lowered his voice hard and said, "Many residents in the building next to him have reported that some bad people in society are coming and going, and this has happened in the past one or two months. Didn't this man move in during this period? Actually, I have a little doubt that he is secretly selling those bad things behind his back!"

"It's impossible, that kind of person who can't eat good food will not have the same combat power as him! Tamao is a man called the King of Beasts among Lily of the Valley!" The female clerk raised her arms and rolled up her sleeves to show off her biceps. However, there was no muscle on her slender arms, which could only make her move look a bit cute. "But the most important thing is that he is very poor... I buy a bento for 389 yen every time. If he really does something bad, he won't be so down and out..."

"Don't immerse yourself in movies and TV series too deeply, Mika!" The male clerk was a little dizzy and didn't want to see his good colleagues come into contact with some strange people.

"It's not a substitution. When I got home from get off work, I saw him fighting on the street. I could beat three or four gangsters by myself, and killed those rogues holding sticks with bare hands. It was really brave." The female clerk put down her hand, "That's why I paid attention to him later. Although he comes to buy bento every day and doesn't pay much attention to the quality of life, as long as there is a girl who is willing to take care of him, everything will probably be fine, right?"

"Hey, Meijia." The male clerk felt the danger... This is a natural vigilance for men in choosing a spouse. Although he has not yet had a formal pursuit mentality towards his beautiful and well-behaved female colleague, it is not a good sign that he wants to flip through the vegetable bars. At least you have to flip through the vegetable fields for a brave and handsome porcupine. Finding such a sluggish guy will always make him feel that he lost miserably and is not so convinced.

"Do you know what his name is? You probably haven't formally talked to him after he has been here for so long, right? He always ignores you and me. It feels like social disorder. This kind of man is the most difficult to deal with." The male clerk tried to distance himself from a female colleague and a regular customer of the store.

"I really don't know what his name is." The female clerk sat behind the counter, holding her face, looking at the back of the cleaner, looking down at the man who looked at the two lunch boxes in her hand to make decisions and think, "Let's ask later."

"He won't pay attention to you," said the male clerk.

"You don't care about you, haven't you noticed it? We both talked to him in the past or two months, and he has never answered you, but he often answered me. Although they are so proud of their words, they have talked to me directly." The female clerk proudly pushed her breasts, which was not very large. After all, it will take several years for a temporary worker who has just graduated to fully develop, but the male clerk still turned his face away and carefully peeked with his side eyes.

"Just talking to Meijia, doesn't it mean that he is just a simple and introverted pervert. He might even secretly call the fallen girl to his house for service, and maybe he would secretly harass other girls on the tram!" The male clerk could only think about this in his heart, but he didn't say it, because the words he said were too malicious and he could not bear the possible consequences... He was just a clerk and was not qualified to pick up and criticize his customers. Even if the customers were really poisonous insects or underworld, they came to their store to provide sales every month, so he had to continue to maintain business and smile and fulfill his responsibilities obediently.

While the two were chatting, the store door was pushed open again, and another customer walked in, welcomed and shouted again. After the customer walked into the convenience store, the female clerk looked at the male clerk and said, "You must be jealous of Tamao, I can see."

"Jealous? I'm not jealous." The male clerk denied, "How could I be jealous of people like him?"

"Judgement based on appearance is never reliable. What if he looks fierce and is actually a super gentle and kind person who loves dogs and cats behind him?" said the female clerk tilted her head and looked at the man who was choosing a bento in the distance and said.

"This situation is pitifully rare." The male clerk smiled bitterly and didn't know what to say. When he saw the man coming, his face immediately tense. He didn't say a word in his mouth, and he didn't even dare to make up his previous malicious speculation about others.

"Is today's lunch a 'juicy fried chicken nuggets bento'? It seems that you like this kind of bento with this flavor. If I remember correctly, you chose this bento yesterday and the day before yesterday. But I just saw that you picked up the 'Mu官网', right? That's actually a good bento, with the same price and the dishes inside are also very rich, ranging from tempura to grilled sausages. Why not try a new flavor?" The female clerk skillfully took the bento code to check the ticket, and looked at the man and talked to him once a day.

"...Please heat it up." The man did not answer the question of the female clerk, but only asked the words he had asked them many times.

"Is it because of too many types? You are afraid to try something new?"

"Please heat it up." The man repeated his words, just speaking a little heavier.

"Okay, please heat it up." The female clerk threw the bento to her colleague beside her, holding her hands to look at the man in front of her, looking at him with an aggressive look, and the man stared at the bento not far away in the microwave without any feedback on the female clerk's eye.

"Sir... do you like dogs?" The female clerk asked this question after thinking for a long time.

The man slowly turned his head and looked at her, and then said, "I don't like it."

"Do you like cats?"

"dislike."

"If you have to choose between a cat and a dog, what do you choose? Ah, it is cheating to choose neither!"

"cat."

"Oh?!Why?"

"Because cats are quieter than dogs, there will be no more words." The man said lightly.

The female clerk was silently stuck. It just so happened that the microwave oven was heating for thirty seconds. So she turned around and continued to complete her work. When she handed the convenience store to the man, she couldn't help but complain, "You have been in our store for so long, and you haven't met for dozens of times. I don't know what your name is yet?"

"Why do you care about this?" The man put away the bento and lifted the plastic pocket, and took a look at the young female clerk who was about teenage or twenty years old.

"Just curious." The female clerk pressed the counter with both hands and shrugged, "Now the decadent uncle among young girls is more attractive than the gentle and sunny handsome man! Don't you know?"

The man looked at the mirror on the shelf behind the female clerk, looking at herself wearing a baseball cap inside, and said nothing, grabbed a handful of change from her pocket and placed it on the counter, turned around and walked towards the door of the convenience store.

"It really failed." The female clerk sighed, held her arm and made a simple stretching action and sighed, but immediately cheered up again, bent down and shouted loudly to the man walking out of the store, "Thank you for your patronage, welcome next time!"
