I'm writing a diary in Zongman

Chapter 321 That loser is upstairs, right?

The streets of Shinjuku are lined with tall buildings on both sides, giving it a very modern look.

But on this street full of tall buildings, there is a store that stands out.

It was a video store that was only two stories high.

On the surface, it looks very shabby, but next to such a shabby video store there are two tens of meters high buildings, which makes the scene look very strange.

It's easy to wonder how this store got stuck in this place.

Although this store does not seem to fit in with the surrounding high-rise buildings, because it is located in a downtown area, the business of this video store is still quite good.

It’s just that renting videotapes and discs is a little outdated, especially now that technology has begun to change with each passing day, the business of videotapes and discs is really getting worse day by day.

Amamiya Ren stood outside holding Sanzenin Nagi's hand.

"Indeed, this store doesn't look very valuable. Furthermore, in this day and age, they're still dealing in videotapes and discs. With the advancement of technology, this business will be gradually swallowed up by time."

Sanzenin Nagi also shared similar feelings.

"I said something similar, but that guy didn't seem to care much about it. He was still thinking of using this store to turn things around. He really has no business sense at all."

"Rather than relying on this one store to turn things around, it would be better to sell the land for a high price and invest the money in emerging industries. Once the impact from abroad reaches the country, the business of these video stores will definitely get worse."

"really."

Amamiya Ren also agreed very much.

With the rapid development of smart phones, the technological storm of this era will soon begin to blow. In a few years, once technology begins to explode in an all-round way, or even if external technology flows in, the technology within the island will definitely be shattered.

"The future is the age of the Internet, and it will also be an era of easier living."

"Mobile phones, tablets, and laptops will become more common. Furthermore, as technology advances, things that were once rare and limited edition will begin to circulate freely online, quickly losing their rarity."

"I think if he has the ability, he should work harder in the field of mobile phones and the internet. Maybe the first few bites of crabs can help him get back on his feet."

"Ah, it's no use, no use."

Sanzenin Nagi simply waved her hands. The idea was good, but there was no way to implement it.

"That guy doesn't have such vision, such courage, and certainly doesn't have such spare money."

"Unless that guy has the courage to sell this piece of land outright and gather enough start-up capital, otherwise he will only be able to make a living running a video store."

"Tsk, that guy is obviously young, but his mind is as hard as steel. He's really hopeless."

After complaining, Sanzenin Nagi took Amamiya Ren's hand and walked into the video store.

There were rows of rare videotapes and discs inside, but there weren't many people in the store, so it could be said that the place was deserted.

Considering that the wind of the technological age has not yet completely blown into the island country, it is estimated that this store can still hold on for the next few years.

"Ms. Nagi!"

Looking in the direction of the sound, the maid sitting at the cashier counter on the left side of the door stood up from her seat as if she had been electrocuted.

The traditional black and white maid outfit wasn't a risqué one, but rather a traditional, formal one, like Maria's. However, her hurried demeanor made her seem less composed than Maria, giving her a sense of unreliability.

"Long time no see, Shashi."

"Long time no see, Miss Nagi."

"Has that Xiao Gen guy been lying in his room for the past month?"

Sanzenin Nagi didn't hesitate and went straight to the point.

Saki Kijima's face was full of embarrassment, but she still nodded in affirmation.

"Yes. Recently, apart from going to school, the young master has been hiding in his room. It seems that he has suffered a great shock."

"I did ask the young master, but he barely said anything except hiding in his room."

There was no trace of surprise on Sanzenin Nagi's face.

"That loser is bound to end up like this."

Kijima Saki asked with a worried look on her face:

"Miss Nagi, what happened to the young master?"

"The object of my secret crush has transferred to another school. Seeing the deserted Bai Huang, I can't help but feel lost. If it were anyone else, it would just be a change of secret crush, but for that loser, it's like a puppet without a soul."

"My secret crush...ah!"

Saki Kijima reacted immediately. She covered her mouth with her hands while exclaiming, and then she instantly understood why the young master had been absent-minded for the past month.

".I was wondering why the young master's mental state has been so bad over the past month. It's because of Miss Yi Cheng's matter."

"But aren't Miss Yicheng and the young master both studying at Baihuang? Could something have happened to Miss Yicheng?"

"Nothing serious will happen."

Sanzenin Nagi immediately stopped Saki from thinking any further.

"Changing schools is just a change of environment. There's no rule that requires you to study at Baihuang."

"That loser clearly knew the location of Isumi's house, but he didn't even have the courage to go and ask. Should he wait until they come to visit and tell him?"

Anyway, from any angle, Sanqianyuan Nagi didn't think that there would be any sparks between that loser and Isumi, especially in Isumi's eyes, there was nothing outstanding about that loser, and their perception of each other was very different. It would be strange if they could even fly sparks.

It's not that she can't see that Yicheng and that loser are not the same kind of people, so she often subconsciously ignores Ju Gen in her brain.

If that loser had a little courage, he would have just come to Yi Cheng's house and asked him directly.

Unfortunately, secretly loving someone is ultimately about not having the courage. If you have the courage, you can love openly.

Sanzenin Nagi felt that if Tachibana Wataru dared to be more straightforward and take a direct approach to pursuing Isumi, Isumi would at least look up to him.

Unfortunately, the flowers are probably too old now.

This time when she remembered this incident, she came over and stomped hard on Ju Gen, hoping that this idiot would know to let go. Otherwise, if he continued like this, he would probably be depressed.

"Shaki, that loser is still in the room upstairs?"

"Yes."

"Okay! I'll go talk to that loser, so he doesn't get really depressed and have to be taken care of by you."

Chapter 322 Sudden accident

After Sanzenin Nagi went upstairs, the only two people left in the shop downstairs were the shop owners Saki Kijima and Ren Amamiya, staring at each other from afar.

"Hello, what is your relationship with Miss Nagi?"

Normally, it is not polite to ask this question when you don't know each other, but Saki Kijima subconsciously thought that the other party had a complicated relationship with Miss Nagi, and perhaps they should be acquaintances, so she asked directly.

Amamiya Ren didn't think there was anything wrong with this, he just smiled.

"Sanqianyuan and I are classmates in the new school. But for some reason, we get along pretty well."

"Classmates from the new school... Sorry, I didn't notice."

Realizing her disrespectful behavior, Saki Takashima quickly apologized.

"Don't worry about it. Just by looking at the way Sanqianyuan and I walked in together just now, anyone would guess our relationship."

"Amamiya Ren is not a rich man, he is just an ordinary high school student."

"Hello, my name is Saki Kijima, I'm Master Tachibana Wataru's maid, and I'm just an ordinary high school student."

Saki Kijima also hurriedly introduced herself.

After the introduction, she paused for a moment, with some hesitation on her face, and asked a little embarrassedly:

"Mr. Amamiya, you are an ordinary high school student. How did you become classmates with Miss Nagi?"

In her memory, Miss Nagi seemed to be a top rich second generation. Aren’t the friends of the rich 980 second generation also rich second generations?

Understanding the meaning of this sentence, Amamiya Ren said jokingly:

"Miss Kijima, do you think Sanzenin and ordinary people can't be friends?"

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that. I, I meant... I..."

Saki Kitajima looked anxious and wanted to explain but couldn't say anything else after talking for a long time. She felt that she was very tongue-tied, but she was also so anxious that she was about to crash.

"Ms. Kijima, I was just joking."

Seeing Saki Kijima's frustrated look as she tried to explain herself anxiously, Ren Amamiya couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that this maid couldn't help being amused in this regard.

"I'm really just an ordinary high school student. I know Sanqianyuan because she transferred here, and we became acquainted by chance."

Saki Kijima slowly breathed a sigh of relief. She was really about to cry out of frustration just now.

However, she also realized that the way she asked the question just now was a bit problematic and too impolite.

"Ms. Guidao, I'd like to ask, can a video store like this really make money?"

"Eh?"

Saki Kijima was stunned for a moment, then thought about the recent profitability of the video store and nodded slightly.

"It's still possible to make a profit. This video store's profit targets are those who love anime and movies. The videotapes and discs that are rented out in the store are not for sale, so we are profitable every month."

"However, because things like mobile phones and computers have become popular recently, business in the store has become much less than before."

The company is still profitable, but the profit situation has declined a lot.

Saki Kitajima is not completely clueless. She also understands that the current decline in business means that business will not improve in the future.

In addition, given the young master's appearance, Saki Kitajima also felt that the future of this store would be very dangerous.

Looking at the sad expression on Saki Kijima's face, it seemed that she had seen the crisis of this store.

"As the saying goes, the one who destroys you may not be your peers, but those in other industries."

Amamiya Ren reminded with a smile that this could really be described as a joke from hell.

"The market for videotapes and discs is being impacted all the time. And as electronic products become more widely available, this store's situation will only get worse."

"Um...yeah."

Saki Kijima didn't want to admit it, but the situation was already obvious. She just didn't know how to remind the young master of this problem.

"Miss Guidao, perhaps you could try to find your young master to discuss expanding the business. Ultimately, the business here has reached its limit, and has even begun to decline with the advancement of technology. Only by working hard to find a new track can you avoid being kicked out."

Amamiya Ren made the suggestion with good intentions, but whether or not it would be accepted was another matter.

If you don't think about changing the track now, when the times push you to change the track in the future, you will be unable to catch up even if you eat shit.

"Bang bang!"

There was a series of explosion sounds coming from outside, which made Amamiya Ren tilt her head to look outside.

You can see a lot of people gathered in front of a building across the street, and they look like they are celebrating something.

The distance is a bit far, and there is a central park across the street with a lot of vegetation. The building where the fireworks were fired is on the other side of the park, so it is a little difficult to see clearly from here.

However, the sound of the explosion was still quite obvious.

You can hear it clearly here.

"Ms. Guidao, are there any celebrations over there?"

At this time, Saki Kijima was also looking at the direction of the firecrackers. She was awakened by the sound but did not turn her head immediately. Instead, she looked over there and thought hard, and then her brows relaxed.

"Over there... I remember it was the twentieth anniversary of the museum. I remember they even had an event where for a week during the anniversary period, admission was free and people could come and go as they pleased."

“The anniversary of the museum’s founding…”

Amamiya Ren was slightly speechless.

In this day and age, if it is not a museum that bears traces of the times, wanting to make money is a joke. To put it bluntly, the building is used to increase political achievements and make money.

It is really difficult for young people to walk around in the museum.

Especially for a museum that is named after a commemorative anniversary, the things inside are probably inconspicuous or unknown decorations. It is likely that the museum itself cannot make any money from ticket sales. This is probably a deliberate use of such a name to promote the museum and increase its popularity.

"Ms. Kijima, does anyone usually go to that museum?"

"Hmm...very little."

After thinking and recalling for a while, Saki Kijima lowered her voice and answered slowly.
