Zatoukei walked up to Su Enxi and Kokenashi Heiji. He stared at the certificate and the gleaming gold badge inside the black box. The certificate bore the name "Takamagahara", and the golden badge was inscribed with the words "Tokyo Model Merchant".
It took a long time for Zatoukei to tear his gaze away from the two items with the utmost reluctance. He raised his head in disbelief, his mouth wide open without a single word coming out. Zatoukei looked from Kokenashi Heiji to Su Enxi, then pointed a finger at his own face, which looked dazed and even clumsy from sheer astonishment, like a child who had unexpectedly received a gift and was too overjoyed to be sure it truly belonged to him.
"Look at that pathetic expression of yours. Just take it since it's being given to you," Su Enxi said in a lowered voice, looking precisely like an aging mother scolding her unfilial eldest son. "Or if you don't want it, I can have Mr. Kokenashi take it back."
