Chapter 438: Playing too much games is harmful to your health
Three days have passed since Kira and the others returned.
For several days, Kira has not left the house. He is either lying in bed and sleeping soundly, or sitting in the store taking care of business. This is a brief relief from the fatigue of being out for days.
"Boss, do you have anything to play with here?"
What? Who is so bold to come and buy in broad daylight? Kira looked up and found that the customer in front of him was a decent lady who lived a few blocks away.
"Yes! Ma'am, what kind would you like?" Kira was a magic merchant with integrity and knew what to ask and what not to ask.
The other party replied hesitantly: "It's just... it's just... uh... the kind that others often buy will do."
'It's really unexpected! I've seen this lady a few times before, and I thought she was quite innocent. I didn't expect that she was that type of person... She actually needs to come here to buy things. Is there a relationship problem between the couple?'
"I see. Which one do you want?"
"?" This lady was probably new to this, and was confused by the choice Kira gave. She tilted her head with a puzzled look on her face, "What do you mean? Are there other types of that thing?"
There was no other way. In order to successfully complete the deal , Kira could only patiently explain to her: "Of course! Different types have different prices..."
"A normal one will do."
"Hmm... Is he the type who has a hard time accepting new things? Or is he just more into it?"
Although he had all sorts of questions in his heart, Kira remained calm on the surface. He just nodded and said, "I wonder if Madam has a favorite style?"
"Eh?! There's also style? It should be type, right?"
"Well... that's true! So, what kind do you like, ma'am?"
The other party smiled gently and said, "Actually, I don't care. As long as the child likes it..."
'What?! A child?!'
Kira's eyes widened instantly. "She just said the word 'child', right?! As a mother, it's fine if she doesn't use this kind of thing behind her child's back, but she actually said something like 'as long as the child likes it'. Is she planning to use it for the child to see?! ...Wait! Who is the 'child' she's talking about? I remember that this lady only has one son, right?"
"Excuse me, the 'child' you mentioned... shouldn't be your son, right?"
The wife looked at Kira in confusion and said, "What are you talking about? Of course he is my son!"
Kira was struck by lightning: "Oh my god! Is it really that little devil? ! ! Isn't this the legendary @#¥%? ! ! ... No! Impossible! Kira, don't let yourself imagine it! That kind of thing only exists in novels and comics! It won't happen in real life... No, it may happen in real life, but it will definitely not happen to you!"
"Yeah... I see. The things Madam mentioned before must have been bought for your son, right?"
The other party immediately laughed joyfully: "That's right! My child has been feeling a little depressed recently, so I thought buying him some toys might make him happier..."
"So that's how it is. I knew it wouldn't be a vulgar plot." Kira wiped his sweat and breathed a sigh of relief. "So, the toys this lady wants to buy should be those more famous ones!"
"I really envy your son. He is so lucky to have such an understanding mother like you!"
Maybe he was embarrassed by the word "considerate", but his face instantly turned red, and he waved his hands hastily, "No, no, no... Boss, you're too kind."
"Don't be modest, ma'am! I believe that in your son's heart, you must be the best mother in the world! To be honest, if I had bought those things back then, I would have been beaten half to death by his parents..."
The wife in front of him was stunned: "Uh... Really? It seems that the boss's education is very strict..."
Kira smiled softly: "It's not that bad actually, it's not too strict..."
"Really? I think it's better to relax than to block. Proper relaxation is helpful to the child's physical and mental health!"
Kira was completely shocked. He had never seen such an open-minded parent in his life: "Is this lady an angel? She actually said such gentle words! ! "
However, although it is enlightened, it is not necessarily right!
"Um...what are your son's hobbies?"
"What do you like?"
"Yes, if you have a preference, I can make a recommendation."
Kira tried to gain information while chatting with her, stalling for time. "Although I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding I had with this lady, the current situation is still not objective! No! It's not good for a young age to play these games!"
"As for his hobbies, he likes ball games very much..."
Kira was stunned: "I like ball games... This lady said this, it should be a clear statement, right? "
"Really? You like ball sports...that's good...hahahaha...I roughly know what kind of sports he would like."
"Oh my! Boss, you guessed it right!" The man in front of him smiled brightly, "He always told me that people his age are too childish and it's boring to be with them, so he prefers to play with people older than him."
“Is that so?”
'This little brat is really good at playing... No! Now is not the time to think about this! How can such a little brat be so indulgent?! Although it's a pity, it's better not to do this business! If I sell it, I will feel guilty!'
Having made up his mind, Kira was no longer in a hurry to find the toy . Instead, he continued to chat with the lady in front of him: "This won't do, ma'am!"
"No?? What...do you mean?"
Kira lied seriously: "Look, the teachers in the school should have taught you this, right? People should get along with people of the same age as they do, so children should play games that children should play with children, and adults should play things that only adults can play with adults!"
“Eh?? Did they teach something like this in school…?”
"In short, letting a child play with adults, or playing with things that only adults can play with, may make him feel satisfied in the short term, but it may not be a good thing in the long run..."
"Is that so?"
"Of course!"
The wife suddenly realized: "No wonder he suddenly caught a bad cold recently. I thought it was because of his picky eating..."
'A bad cold?! You still want to play games when you have a bad cold?! What kind of spirit is this?! ! Wait! Maybe this is a good opportunity! A chance for this lady to dissuade him and pull him out of the quagmire of desire!'
"How could a simple matter of being picky about food have such a serious impact? Your son must be too playful!"
Hearing Kira's alarmist words, the lady opposite subconsciously exclaimed: "What?! Can playing games also cause physical deficiency??!"
Kira answered as a matter of course: "Of course! What do you think this is? Normally, a child of your age should focus on studying, right?"
"Now that you put it that way...it seems to make some sense!"
Seeing that the other party was wavering, Kira immediately struck while the iron was hot: "Right, right... Instead of buying him that kind of toy, why not buy him a few more exercises... Study materials are also fine, that can also be used for entertainment."
The wife thought for a moment, clenched her fists as if she had made an important decision, and said, "Okay! In that case, let's do as you say! Please recommend two bedtime books for me, boss !"
Kira nodded in satisfaction and turned around to pull out a few of the most popular fantasy novels of the season from the bookshelf: "Children may be interested in magic, um... let's take these!"
"Hmm... um... it looks like it's interesting. How much is it?"
"A total of 1999J. Thank you for your patronage."
…
Half an hour later, the little boy who was lying in bed with a cold took the book handed to him by his mother, looking confused: "What...what is this...? Didn't mom promise to buy me a toy?"
"You're already sick, why are you still playing games? The boss told me that those kinds of games are bad for your health!"
"Eh?? Harmful to the body?? It's just a card game! And it's sold in that store..."
"Don't try to lie to mom! The owner of the toy store told me! You got sick because you played too much!! Mom told you a long time ago not to play that kind of card game, but you didn't listen..."
The boy's whole body turned gray. He was completely oblivious to his mother's nagging. He just sat on the bed with cold hands and feet: "How could this happen..."
“What on earth just happened?!!”
"Be quiet! If you are sick, just take a good rest!!"
“Yes… yes…”
