[ He's really beginning to think he should stop responding to any messages from the students unless it's very clearly, unquestionably, a curse-originated emergency.
Yes, that's what he'll do. No more texting teenagers.
Whether or not he believes they're kidding (and he doesn't believe she's kidding, but he's also decided he doesn't care, which is a lie, but a familiar one). ]
It's also true that there are legal systems in which finders are given higher priority. However, Japan's legal system is not one of them.
[ Nor is "finders keepers" an ethical or cultural norm, but he can feel a headache coming on. ]
I have nothing to say to Losers Weepers. Enjoy the yen.
[ amazing. i can't believe i read at least half of that and good thing he didn't link her to That, because who's to say that kugisaki would even read it?
spoiler alert: she would not. ]
Ehh, really? The more you know.
[ wow... she's learning so much from nanami in gojo's absence... nobody is surprised. ]
I will, thanks Nanami-san. Especially since the cops can't come arrest me if there is no name is written on this bill.
And that is why people should stop carrying cash altogether. Less instances of your money ending up in Kugisaki Nobara's hands!!
he'll accept baked goods of any kind, but especially bread, thnx
[ tmw you actually read more of it than i did He doesn't like to spend time doing things like that (e.g., googling the pertinent law or summary and linking her) when it would be a clear waste. ]
Yes, it would be difficult to trace a single bill to its owner, even a Β₯10,000 bill. There can't be anyone who memorizes the serial numbers on their cash.
[ He'd only pressed the point because, as noted, she seemed to truly think she knew the owner. ]
Though especially in Tokyo more shops have begun to accept credit cards, many still remain cash only. For now, people will have to accept the risk of Kugisaki Nobara laying claim to their mislaid yen.
[ A joke...? No way...? ]
kugisaki offers him a baguette like, "sorry this is french and not danish...."
Ehhh, you mean Nanami-san isn't one of those people?
[ she's only half-teasing. he's so uptight that it could be something he'd do but he doesn't seem like the type to care so much about such trivial thingsβ or small things like that.
but his next text has her looking rather impressed! she deals with one (1) stoic boy so often that to see this man crack a joke makes her believe that there may be hope just yet, for fushiguro as an adult. ]
I've noticed that. After I got my request for a credit card got approved I've been turning away from shops that only accept cash.
But I won't do that anymore. Especially since I've found Β₯5,000 more yen!!!!
[ was going to add there's like no particularly danish bread other than rye, but google would make me a liar ]
Not even active salarymen do that kind of thing.
[ The serious response, despite it being clear she was at least partially teasing. He would have said "a useless thing like that", except given the conversation and Kugisaki's pursuit of lost cash, one could argue it had unexpected utility.
As for Fushiguro-kun, Nanami would have full confidence in his capacity to deadpan. And as for her credit card, it cannot bode well for society that a company was actually willing to approve her. The interest rate must be exorbitant. ]
For many purposes, shops that accept credit also have a greater selection. For others, I've found the most striking difference with food. Many of the finest restaurants are not yet able to accept credit.
[ By finest, he means quality and a number of other attributes, rather than price or the decor. Other than for food and alcohol, he doesn't really do much shopping, so might as well just go to the shops that take credit. ]
Where is it that you're finding these bills?
[ They aren't small bills -- could it be that one person had really lost Β₯15,000? ]
[ he wouldn't be wrong about that. kugisaki nobara with money in general is... a rollercoaster, in it self. but kugisaki nobara with a credit card is a menace to society.
well. she is trying to build her credit after all! ]
Ah! The hole-in-the-wall restaurants. Those types, right? We had a lot of those back home, but they all served pretty much the same kind of food. Do you have a favorite shady restaurant, Nanami-san?
[ his last text has her squinting at her phone. does she really wanna share this information with him? not really, so she'll keep him in suspense. ]
[ Either despite her "JK" he continues to take it seriously, or because the horse is already dead, so he might as well instruct her how to beat it properly -- ]
No, they aren't interested in chump change.
[ For the individual and their wallet, Β₯15,000 is significant. To a salaryman moving amounts many times the multiple of that... really, obscene shit. ]
Hole-in-the-wall doesn't necessarily mean shady. Of course, there's plenty of variety in Tokyo. To name a few: Hanasaka Jisan in Shibuya, Gyu-No-Chikara by Ueno station, and Izakaya Juban in Minato.
[ Nanami's interested in food. Conversely, he doesn't care for suspense. ]
I recommend you space them out, rather than trying to fit them all in one outing.
[ How could one truly savor each if cramming all into a few hours? ]
I'm no longer a salaryman, though I'm not interested.
[ That is, it's not because it's chump change. And she should really choose her words more carefully. If he decides to intervene (unlikely though that decision may be), he wouldn't necessarily need to go himself. ]
That does sound like a better idea than to make myself sick from eating so much in one day. I need to stop thinking with my stomach, so I'll do that instead!
[ she'll just drag the guys out to one of those places after their next upcoming missions. ]
Okay so I
WAIT
[ she forgot to mention something elseβ ]
You also have to tell me you won't tell another living soul!!!
[ It isn't technically praise to acknowledge that she'd only just covered up that loophole? ]
Fine.
[ He doesn't really care, and if someone's careless enough to lose bills of that size, unless she's actively stealing, that's their problem and responsibility. ]
[ she only caught on when she realized that was the same kind of shit she'd pull on literally anybody else, reallyβ ]
The school.
[ though that much should have been obvious, so she'll specify on the whereabouts exactly in her next text. ]
The first bill I found was in the communal kitchen. It was just sitting there on the counter and nobody was around. I figured maybe it was maybe one of the second-years leaving a tip for Fushiguro since he cleaned out the fridge yesterday but there was no note or name so I took it.
And then the second one was on the table behind the couch in the common area! This time I had the decency to ask both Itadori and Fushiguro if it belonged to them. So it's mine now.
[ ... Why did he ask? What did he expect to do with this information? (In fact, he'd expected this: if it was obvious from her answer who was losing their money, send them a message suggesting that they be more careful, without telling them why or where or anything further.) What does he do with it now? It does make sense, now, why she expected someone in her contacts to have misplaced the bill. If no one replied, she was legitimized in keeping it. Despite having initially proclaimed her intention to keep it, presumably if someone like Maki had laid claim, Kugisaki would have forfeited it. But anyone to whom Kugisaki would return it wasn't the sort of person to leave money lying around.
If not a large tip for Fushiguro's chore, it could have been yen left out to pay for delivery of some kind... teenagers could probably eat Β₯10,000 of delivery...
Anyway, this is far more thought than he ever wanted to expend on this topic. ]
and in this moment, nanami was well and truly done
