It’s actually all appearance, what a bad store
Mariko said.
They use German architecture outside and inside, but. This is just a regular reinforced concrete building with wood and bricks stuck to it
Huh?
That fireplace over there is a fake. A real fireplace can’t be placed in that spot. If a European sees that, they’ll laugh at it
Oh, I see.
They created a good atmosphere but it’s fake.
The real sense is lacking.
That big vase over there should be actually two symmetrical vases. It’s just one piece over there, right? Do they not know? That’s the way it should be. The painting over there is the scenery of France. But, the bakery is projecting the image of Germany
It seems that it caught Mariko’s eye.
Who cares about that. I like it. It has a mature atmosphere in it
Kana-senpai said.
I don’t like that one
Haiji points at the cafe.
Since it’s a good looking store, they should’ve used porcelain on their drinks
Oh.
They put the coffee and tea in a flimsy cup with lids, like fast food and coffee mass marketer.
Coffee in America is in fashion so a lot of stores use tumblers like that
Kana-senpai said.
But, I think Haiji’s right. You enjoy the coffee and black tea together with its container
Mariko said.
I see.
That’s a subtly bad shop.
Yoshida-kuun
Ai called me.
What’s wrong? Uhm, this bread, they use good wheat flour
Just looking at it, you’ll understand.
But, none of them are hard to make
Huh?
If it’s the pastries here, Ai and Yoshida-kun can make them

Chapter 1058. Pastry Filled Adventure Second Bakery
1 Isn’t that obvious? If they’re making this much variety of pastries every day, then they would hire partime staff for that
Mariko said.
Work hours start at 9 in the morning and ends at 9 in the evening. They’re open for 12 hours a day from morning to night, and they’re constantly making, baking, replenishing new bread at that time, right? That means they have to take turns in shifts to make it in time
Mariko opens her smartphone while she says that.
Oh, there it is. The owner of this place is a 38-year-old person trained in a foreign bakery. His hobby is reading, and when there’s a popular book, he’ll be sure to buy it
Mariko seems to have found the website of this bakery.
Get it? For that hobby to be viable, there’s no way the owner is going around making bread from morning until evening
Yeah, that’s true.
You still need to work at night for the pastry the next day.
If the owner’s always in front of the oven then he has no time to rest.
So what about it? What do you want to happen after knowing that? The owner only needs to check the taste of his products, right? The pastries here look good, looks delicious, and they have a good reputation
Kana-senpai looks at her phone too.
It seems that she found discussions over the internet.
You see, we’re entering the third-best bakery in Tokyo category
Yeah, Katsuko-nee did tell Ai and me to see it.
I think that the shop has a high popularity.
But, all I see is an inelegant and a sham of a shop
Mariko smiled wryly.
Well, you may know about the genuine European bakeries but we’re in Japan. I think that this is good enough
Kana-senpai insists.
You two are too loud
Yomi warned them.
Oh, the employees and the other customers are looking at us curiously.
Well, students wearing uniforms are arguing on a bakery in an upscale residential area where they don’t fit in.
Even so, seeing that they’re not giving us a warning.
That’s all thanks to Mariko’s uniform, I believe.
It’s a shop intended for rich people so Mariko’s uniform works on them.
Oh, sorry
Mariko apologized to the people around with an elegant gesture.
Hurry up now and pick three, I’ll buy them ooh, wait
Ai picks pastries in a hurry.
Haiji, Yomi, seen to have made their picks while Mariko and Kana-senpai are arguing.
The bread that took my interest is loaf bread, so I took one.
I want Katsuko-nee to give it a taste too.
Are you sure about this Nobu? Do you have money?
Kana-senpai asks worriedly.
Yeah, this shop should be able to receive cards
I take out the card Minaho-neesan gave me since we’re at this kind of place.
Wow, isn’t that a black card?
Kana-senpai’s surprised.
This card belongs to this man. I guarantee you that
Mariko told the employee with a smile
O-Okay
The employee looks at the back of the shop with a confused look.
Oh, the person Mariko was looking at her smartphone, the owner appeared.
It’s gotten noisy in the shop so he came to check it out.
Then.
Haiji spoke to the owner in German.
I don’t know anything about the German language but she speaks with a dignified and elegant tone.
Then, the owner goes back inside the store in a hurry, then.
Thank you for your purchase
He told Mariko with a smile.
Hurry up and pack it Ah, yes!
With that said, we managed to purchase the pastries.
Haiji and I received the paper bags with the name of the bakery printed on it.
I’m very sorry for the fuss, everyone
Mariko greets off the people in the store and we left.
What did you tell them?
Kana-senpai asks Haiji as soon as we left the shop.
Nothing much. I just told the man This is a young lady of a respectable family with a long history. Show no discourtesy Huh, that’s all?
Kana-senpai seems surprised.
It’s because Haiji spoke in fluent German. You know, in the Japanese language, there’s an inelegant way of speaking and a polite way. That owner is studying German so when Haiji spoke words that the upper class uses, then he trusted us
I said.
Agnes is also a halforeign with blonde hair and blue eyes, but.
Haiji has black hair, and you won’t find the European blood unless you take a good look. She’s still young after all.
Haiji’s indoctrinated at the academy with the etiquette and language required to serve noblemen in Europe
Mariko speaks proudly.
That’s one of the reasons, but.
Haiji speaks.
I just considered what Edie-oneesama would do if she were here
Edie?
If I am lost, I run a simulation of how would a trustworthy and reliable sister would get through it, and so that’s what happened Oh, I guess that’s what happened. If you think of what would this person do, you can find your answer right away
Kana-senpai said.
Edie-oneesama’s amazing. She’s an erudite, a fast thinker, and she also has courage. I keep learning from her
I see. She’s become good friends with Edie in just one week.
That’s right, Edie-oneesama’s thoughts are too fast that I sometimes can’t even read it
Yomi said.
Tsukiko-oneesama seems to have read through it all however
As expected of the next Takakura shrine maiden, she can keep up with Edie’s speed.
I wonder how Luna and Koyomi-chan fares.
I should look it up later.
If it goes poorly, it could be a way to counter the Miko power.
Yomi, that’s enough on that topic
I said.
Kudou-papa’s looking this way from the driver’s seat.
Kudou-san can do lip-reading
I hid my lips with my hand and said.
Ah, okay Huh, Nobu. Isn’t he Michi-san’s father
Kana-senpai asks curiously.
Yes, he’s not an enemy right now. But, he’s a free man
Depending on the events, he could become our enemy.
Besides, that guy never lets such opportunities pass him. Besides, I don’t like the value to go down sensei, I’m sorry
Yomi bowed her head.
