Not getting a meal at the studio, Nagayama Naoki had no choice but to drive to Ginza with Yotaro.

He took the key that Keiko Fujita had brought him a month ago and planned to go to Silver Valley's watch shop to have another look.

Since the disco in Takadanobaba is going to be renovated, let's also renovate this clock shop. Anyway, a large amount of funds will be received at the end of the month, and my wallet will be very full at this time.

The old house located among the high-rise buildings in Silver Valley is very conspicuous and seems to be out of tune with this era.

If it can survive into the 21st century, it might be preserved as a historical relic.

Nagayama Naoki opened the front door of the store with the key. After more than a month of absence, the dust became thicker again.

"Ying Tailang, don't run around~" He tightened his grip on the dog leash, stopping Ying Tailang's desire to explore. No one had come to the deserted watch shop for a long time, and it was very deserted. However, some of the clocks hanging on the wall on the first floor were actually...

It's still running, and in the dim light, it makes the house look a bit eerie.

Of course, the valuable and intact clocks were picked up by the previous landlord. What was left in the store were old ones, not on time, and even some broken parts.

After turning on the light, the yellow light illuminated the back of the store, but the second floor... Looking at the old wooden stairs and the dark second floor at the end, Naoki Nagayama once again chose to follow his heart.

"I shouldn't be looking at this watch shop alone today, why not just turn it into a haunted house!" He thought angrily and wandered around the counter on the first floor for a while.

I actually found a cabinet with many abandoned old-fashioned watches. These were all vintage watches from World War II. Some of the glass had cracks and the straps were rusty.

But after picking it up and looking at it, it seems that the enamel dial is still intact.

At this time, watches were basically functional. If they broke, they would be useless. Repairing such old-fashioned watches was also very troublesome, so it was better to buy a new one.

However, in later generations, it seems that in the 1980s and 1990s, antique watches became a trend again, and watches from the World War II era became collectibles.

"It feels a bit interesting~" Although I don't play with watches, it doesn't stop me from collecting a batch?

It will also be a very meaningful gift to give to someone after a few years~

Nagayama Naoki took out all the old watches from this drawer, and then searched the store again. He found some old pocket watches and the like, and planned to find a watchmaker to restore them~

After walking out of the clock shop, my whole body felt relaxed under the sunshine.

There may really be something wrong with this store.

"Yingtaro, when you take a bath today, add a little moxa leaf to drive away evil spirits!"

He said to the little guy at his feet, and when he decided to renovate, he must find an auspicious day and ask a mage to perform a ritual.

...

Tsuruko Nagayama, who is from Shizuoka, is planning a trip to Tokyo in April.

Last time I went to Sensoji Temple, Huangju, and Meguro River. This time I want to visit more places.

But this time, it was discovered that Xiao Nai couldn't go to Tsubaki House because she had to attend a cram school...

Alas, as a top student, Tsuruko has never felt sorry for studying, and there is absolutely no need to participate in cram schools and the like.

"But this time, I have to go alone... It seems that it will be very boring if I don't have anyone of the same age with me. Besides paying the bill, Ni-chan can't chat among girls."

Tsuruko was scribbling boredly on his notebook, and when he saw the pen in his hand, he suddenly thought, doesn't he still have a pen pal in Tokyo?

Nakamori Akiho, how come you forgot her?

I don’t know why, but Nagayama Tsuruko and Nakamori Akiho were very close to each other. They wrote letters from time to time and occasionally made phone calls during major holidays.

If we go to Tokyo this time, wouldn’t Akiho be able to come with us?

Tsuruko did not call first, but chose to write a letter first, asking Mingsui about her arrangements at that time, saying that she wanted to see her, etc. Anyway, she explained her meaning in a roundabout way,

After all, it's not the same relationship as Fa Xiao. You still have to consider whether it will disturb the other person.

Seal the envelope, affix the stamp, and prepare to send it out tomorrow.

If there are no problems, I can go to Tokyo to play in April and see friends again.

Nagayama Tsuruko lay on the bed and turned over happily,

By the way, you can also go see Taro Taro!

...

At this time, Tailang, who was drowsy, suddenly got excited, let out a "woof", and looked around quickly.
Chapter completed!
