Crossover Anime: Devil's Convenience Store, Handcuffing Eri Kisaki

At this time, Mary Akai also transferred 200,000 yen to select a demon card.

According to Vermouth's plan, she would join in later.

This actually made her a little shy, since she had never tried it before, and she had only agreed to it in order to get the Dragon Balls.

But when it came to actually taking that step, she was still conflicted.

If it were just her alone, she would definitely go without hesitation, but if it were a couple, she would need to mentally prepare herself.

Jie Jie Jie!

While struggling with her decision, Mary Akai first drew a demon card.

As the demon card dissipated into black mist, a golden orb of light immediately appeared on the counter.

"A golden ball of light?" Mary Akai looked at it with some curiosity.

Chen Mo glanced at it and obtained its information.

The "Dog-Beating Stick Technique" is a unique martial art from another world, belonging to the Beggars' Sect. It consists of thirty-six styles, twelve moves, and eight-character formulas. Its variations are subtle and its techniques are wondrous, making it truly the first-class martial art throughout history.

"This is the 'Dog-Beating Stick Technique'."

Chen Mo explained from the side, "Don't let the name fool you, it sounds vulgar. It's actually a top-tier skill! You'll understand once you absorb this ball of light."

Mary Akai immediately reached out her finger and touched the ball of light. In an instant, the golden light merged with her body.

A large number of dog-beating stick techniques and incantations flooded into her mind.

When she opened her eyes again, they couldn't help but shine.

She initially thought this staff technique wouldn't be very useful, but after actually using it, she realized how profound and powerful it was!

She just needed a stick, otherwise she really wanted to practice her moves properly.

"This Dog-Beating Stick Technique doesn't actually require very high-end weapons; any tree branch picked up from the ground can be used as a weapon."

Chen Mo noticed the change in Akai Mary's expression and immediately offered an explanation from the side.

"Okay, I see."

Mary Akai nodded slightly and drew another demon card.

Soon, the demon card turned into black mist and dissipated in the air.

A black eye mask appeared on the counter.

【Focus Mask】A special item from the devil, it allows you to experience a unique hide-and-seek game. When you put it on, you will be greeted with a special experience. Everything around you is unknown, making you feel scared yet full of anticipation. Once used, it will increase the distance between the two people exploring.

"What is this?" Mary Akai picked up the eye mask and asked curiously, "Is it to help me sleep?"

“No, this is a focusing eye mask,” Chen Mo replied after checking its information. “This eye mask will give you a special experience. Once you wear it, it will enhance the relationship between two people.”

"A special experience?" Mary Akai put on the black blindfold.

In an instant, her world was plunged into darkness, and she could feel nothing.

She could hear Vermouth repairing the flashlight and her own breathing, and she seemed to feel less shy.

She walked forward and extended her hands.

"Where are you going?" Chen Mo quickly reached out to support Akai Mary.

Although she could hear Chen Mo's voice, putting on the blindfold caused a strange restlessness in her heart.

It was indeed a very strange experience; she felt as if every part of her body was being magnified infinitely.

"Store manager..."

Mary Akai gritted her teeth and whispered, "Please, just surpass me already!"

Chapter 179: Vermouth: Manager, you'd better make sure to treat everyone equally later!

Teitan Junior High School

"Ran, this poster is a bit blurry!" Nakamori Aoko frowned slightly as she looked at the poster she had made.

Xiaolan gave an apologetic smile, "Well, this... I took the picture secretly at the time."

Sera Masumi crossed her arms and shook her head. "It's okay! This adds a sense of mystery, at least it's much better than before."

Nakamori Aoko thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, let's put out this poster first, and then put some tarot cards on the stall."

"Tarot cards?" Sera Masumi nodded. "That's a good idea, but does any of you know how to use them?"

Ran and Aoko Nakamori immediately fell silent; they had only heard of this thing before, but had never seen it.

"I can!" a voice suddenly came from the side.

Ran Mouri looked up and saw it was Sonoko Suzuki.

"Sonoko, you're here!" Ran Mouri grinned when she saw Sonoko Suzuki.

"Sonoko, why didn't you come this morning?" Nakamori Aoko asked curiously.

"It's all because of our cosplay outfits. I couldn't find any at all, so I had someone rush to make them overnight, which meant I didn't get a proper rest all night."

Sonoko Suzuki stretched and said, "I decided to take the morning off and come over this afternoon. What are you guys doing? Setting up a stall?"

Ran Mouri nodded, "We plan to promote the store manager's Devil Convenience Store so that more people will go to the store to draw cards."

Sonoko Suzuki narrowed her eyes. "Not only others, but we can also get extra chances to draw cards, right?"

"Yes!" Ran Mouri nodded with a smile. Actually, it didn't matter to her whether she drew a card or not, as long as she could see the store manager.

"Wait a minute!" Sonoko Suzuki suddenly thought of something, "If we set up a stall, does that mean we don't have to participate in the cosplay parade?"

Sera Masumi nodded, "That's right! We've already set up a stall, so it seems we don't need this cosplay parade."

Sonoko Suzuki stood to the side with a resentful look on her face, "I was busy all night last night..."

"Sonoko, I'm sorry."

Ran Mouri said shyly, "We'll make it up to you later."

Sonoko Suzuki crossed her arms and thought for a moment, then said, "How about this! Next time we go to the Devil Convenience Store, I have to go first!"

"Well, yes."

Ran Mouri nodded slightly.

Anyway, the shop manager is physically strong, so all four of them go, and even if they are the last ones to go, the shop manager will do her best to make sure they fix the flashlights.

"Sonoko, you just said you know tarot cards?" Nakamori Aoko asked curiously from the side.

"Yeah, I've looked into it before when I had nothing to do."

Sonoko Suzuki nodded gently. "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"We're planning to create a mysterious atmosphere to lure everyone to the Devil Convenience Store!" Ran Mouri said from the side, revealing their idea. "After all, we want everyone to draw cards, not to buy anything."

Sonoko Suzuki thought for a moment, "Hmm, that makes sense. I'll just sit here and wait for everyone to arrive."

“Yes!” Ran Mouri immediately stepped forward to set up a table for Sonoko Suzuki.

"I thought you guys had given up, but I didn't expect you to still be setting up stalls."

Kasumigaoka Utaha appeared from the side.

"Everyone else is setting up stalls, why can't we?" Sera Masumi asked Kasumigaoka Utaha, arms crossed.

"But what real value does your stall have? You probably don't even know what you're doing, do you?" Kasumigaoka Utaha gently shook her head and sighed.

"Would you like to have your tarot cards read?" Sonoko Suzuki looked up at her and asked.

"I've never believed in this kind of thing."

Kasumigaoka Utaha chuckled softly, her gaze falling on the poster beside her. "Are you guys deliberately trying to make him seem handsome?"

"The store manager is already very handsome."

Nakamori Aoko corrected, "This was taken secretly, that's why you see it like this."

"Handsome? That's a superficial thing, all there is to it, nothing inside! Besides, how handsome can he be? So handsome that you can't help but think about him day and night?" Kasumigaoka Utaha said dismissively, her seemingly quiet demeanor constantly spouting sarcastic remarks.

"Yes!" Ran Mouri and the others nodded in agreement, their expressions confirming their feelings. "We really do want to see the manager every day!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha paused for a moment, then snorted coldly: "A bunch of ignorant brats who've never seen the world!"

I want to see what kind of store manager you guys can praise like this!

Sera Masumi stood beside her with her arms crossed, "Do you think she'll take the bait?"

"The most effective way to deal with a girl with such a sharp tongue is to use reverse psychology."

Sonoko Suzuki smiled slightly. "Don't worry, she'll definitely go."

"Tarot cards?" Suddenly, a girl sat down in front of Suzuki Sonoko. "Could you do a reading for me?"

“She’s not…” Nakamori Aoko was about to speak when Sera Masumi pulled her back.

Nakamori Aoko realized what was happening and quickly shut her mouth.

Sonoko Suzuki looked up at the other person and immediately recognized her as Eriri, a big celebrity at school.

"Can I have my fortune told?" Eriri asked with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

Sonoko Suzuki nodded immediately, "Of course! What do you want to be counted as?"

Eriri thought for a moment, "I'll consider this a marriage match."

Sonoko Suzuki placed the tarot cards in her hand on the table. "You can draw one from here."

Eriri glanced at it and immediately pulled out a tarot card. "This one will do."

Sonoko Suzuki looked at the tarot cards in her hand and thought carefully for a moment. "You will definitely have some luck in love recently."

"Really?" Eriri asked expectantly. "Where?"

“I’ll give you an address,” Sonoko Suzuki wrote down an address and handed it to Eriri. “Go here, and remember to be there before tonight. You should be able to run into her.”

“Okay, okay!” Eriri immediately took the address and left.

"Sonoko, are you really good at math?" Ran Mouri asked from the side.

Sonoko Suzuki rearranged the tarot cards. "What's there to be afraid of! Anyway, just have her go to the convenience store."

Ran Mouri suddenly realized, "Oh right, as long as the other person goes to the convenience store, it's fine."
