Chapter 136 Sakura: When was this shop renovated?
"Oh my gosh~"
"Ohayo!"
As the morning sun shines down on the world, many more figures hurrying to school can be seen on the streets.
Sakura didn't stay in bed today; she actually got up early.
After she had everything ready, she put on her pink roller skates, turned a corner, crossed the penguin park, and finally arrived at a street very close to the school.
Once you get through here, you'll be almost at school.
As soon as she got closer, Sakura noticed that someone was packing up things at a shop that had previously closed down.
Not only was there a large truck parked on the side of the road, but many workers were also unloading boxes of goods from the truck and placing them in front of the shop.
"Huh? Are they reopening?" Sakura was a little surprised to see a store reopening on her way to school. "It's still early, I'll go check it out."
Wearing roller skates, Sakura finally arrived at the shop entrance.
This shop looks like it has just been renovated.
"That's strange. I passed by here with Xiao Wang and the others yesterday, and we didn't see anyone doing any renovations." Xiao Ying scratched her head. Although she was a little puzzled, she didn't think there was anything strange about it.
After all, although she, Wang Changsheng, and Zhishi passed by this place on their way to Beika Town, the shop had been closed for quite some time, so even though they passed by, they didn't pay any special attention to it.
So even Sakura herself doesn't know when the store was renovated.
The entire shop is decorated in a European style, with bright lights and pure white colors that make it look exquisite and unique, attracting the attention of every passerby.
The shop is located at an intersection and so close to the school. You can imagine that if this shop can be opened, it should have a very good business.
The fact that it had been closed down for so long and no one had moved in is something that people discuss from time to time.
As Sakura approached the shop, she noticed a long-haired woman walking out of it.
The staff moved the goods to the door, and after a quick inspection, the woman signed for the stacks of boxes.
The moment Sakura saw the woman, her gaze involuntarily shifted to her.
This woman is truly beautiful, with a gentle and elegant demeanor. In her, Sakura even sees a resemblance to Tomoyo as she grows up.
After signing for all the goods, the woman began to move the boxes, preparing to put them into the store one by one for careful sorting.
"Is this the manager of this shop?" Sakura smiled slightly as she looked at the busy woman. "She seems like a very kind older sister."
"Since it's a new store opening, let's bring Tomoyo and Xiao Wang along when it opens." Sakura planned to tell Wang Changsheng and Tomoyo about this after returning to school.
But just as she was about to leave, a gasp suddenly came from behind her, followed by a loud bang.
Sakura quickly turned around and saw that the woman, who seemed like a caring older sister, had tripped over something, her hand slipped, and the large box she was holding fell to the ground.
There were quite a few plush toys in the box, and now they've all fallen out.
Upon seeing this, the shop manager immediately tried to squat down and pick up the plush toys scattered all over the floor.
However, the tight-fitting long dress she was wearing made it difficult for her to bend over.
All I could do was straighten my back, squat down, and stretch out my arms as much as possible to pick up the dolls one by one and put them back in the box.
Having witnessed everything that was happening, Sakura lightly moved her feet and floated to the side of the store, helping the store manager to tidy up the various toys on the ground.
"Huh?" The shop owner, who was picking up the doll with great effort, saw Sakura offering to help and quickly thanked her.
"(?????) You're welcome~" Sakura shook her head, indicating that it was nothing, she had only helped with a small matter.
After helping the shopkeeper pack all the dolls back into the box, Sakura watched as the shopkeeper took out some tape, seemingly preparing to seal the box: "These dolls all look so cute."
"Thank you for your compliment." The beautiful woman smiled gently, her tone tinged with gratitude.
While the shop manager was sealing boxes, Sakura moved swiftly and arrived at the shop's entrance.
The storefront is mostly made of transparent floor-to-ceiling glass, and the interior is brightly lit with very high brightness.
So even through the glass door, Sakura could still see the inside of the store very clearly.
As she looked around, she asked the shop manager, "When will this shop open? I'd like to bring my friends to browse around."
Not far behind Sakura, the shopkeeper also resealed the broken box and then temporarily set it aside.
She breathed a slight sigh of relief, then stood up again, gazing at Sakura's back as she leaned against the glass door, a gentle smile playing on her lips: "If all goes well, we can open for business today."
"I'm Masaki Matsumoto, little sister. You must be a student at a school around here, right? Nice to meet you." The shop owner gave Sakura a brief self-introduction: "I own this shop, and you and your friends are very welcome to visit."

"Hello, my name is Kinomoto Sakura." Upon hearing Matsumoto Masaki's self-introduction, Sakura turned around and politely bowed slightly to her.
Matsumoto Masaki nodded gently, his smile truly tender, always making Sakura feel as if she were facing Tomoyo as she grew up.
"There are still many things to prepare and organize in the shop. It should be almost done by the time you get out of school, Sakura-chan. You're welcome to come and play then." Matsumoto Masaki's voice rang in Sakura's ears.
Because it was early morning, Sakura's voice sounded very energetic and enthusiastic: "Yeah! If we can open then, I'll bring my friends!"
"Thank you so much." Matsumoto Masaki said, picking up the box again.
She was holding the box, about to say something, when suddenly, something happened, and the box in the shopkeeper's hand moved violently, causing it to slip from her grasp and collide with other boxes, resulting in all the boxes in the area in front of her being impacted to some extent.
What was originally a neatly stacked pile of boxes by the staff was now a chaotic mess.
Fortunately, this time no boxes were broken, and the contents inside remained intact and did not fall out.
So all you need to do is repack these boxes.
Sakura was just about to say goodbye to Matsumoto Masaki when she happened to witness what was happening.
This left Sakura somewhat stunned, standing there dumbfounded.
For a moment, she didn't realize whether she needed to go up and help the shop manager.
However, Sakura quickly realized what was happening.
She moved lightly, intending to go up and help, but was stopped by the shop manager.
"It's nothing, just that the boxes are a bit messy. It's getting late, you should hurry to school, right?" The shopkeeper waved her hand, indicating that Sakura should go to school quickly and not waste too much time with her.
With her here, she'll definitely get everything sorted out in no time.
When the store manager spoke up, Sakura first glanced at the mess on the ground.
She hesitated somewhat.
Can you really get it all done in a short time?
Sakura always seemed a little unreliable.
"It's really okay, let's go." Matsumoto Masaki shook his head, not letting Sakura spend too much time with her.
Although I left home a little earlier than usual today, it wasn't by much.
Therefore, after hesitating for a while, Sakura bowed slightly to the shopkeeper again, then slipped and left the intersection, heading towards her school.
When Sakura arrived on her way, she noticed that there were far fewer students going to school. Clearly, she had spent a lot of time at the new shop opened by the shopkeeper.
There were hardly any people on the road now, so Sakura quickened her pace and arrived at the classroom.
At this moment, Wang Changsheng and Zhi Shi were already sitting in the classroom.
Seeing Sakura's joyful expression, Wang Changsheng tilted his head and asked her, "Sakura, did something good happen to you again? Why do you look so excited?"
"Yeah!" Xiaoying nodded and explained directly to Wang Changsheng, "I found a really nice boutique. It's located at the intersection not far from our school. I just bumped into the shop owner, and I think the shop looks pretty good."
"Really?" Wang Changsheng scratched his head. "A boutique? I haven't really paid attention to that."
