--that low. But if he ever needed something to make some people see things his way...

knows it is too late now.

wonders what LiXiang saw. Oh, also, he has a comic he needs to return to him.

saw something that now he wonders if he really saw. It was like spotting a unicorn, a once in a life time event. Unicorns are not real by--

--the way. He looks at China, then slowly glances away. He feels this is an awkward. The comic made it worst...

also wonders what he saw.

wonders why they are so curious. Did they forget what happened to the cat?

is just.. naturally curious. And doesn't know what he means by 'what happened to the cat.'

will inform Japan that the curiosity killed the cat. He would recommend for Japan to be careful.

... frowns. He feels bad for the poor cat. And he'll stay out of it.

thinks Japan might just be making a clever decision. Now about him buying a panda.

decided he wouldn't buy one. ... Well... he might. If Hong Kong tells him what he saw.

will tell him what he saw then but Japan would have to buy two pandas.

sighs, and agrees. Pandas are quite nice, after all.

holds up two pandas, they are still 19.99 each in USD. "They are nice. I know you will treat them well."

knows unicorns aren't real. He leaves the comic on a nearby table, not really wanting to touch it. He needs to talk to him about the girl-

in the comic too. He was going to further inquire LiXiang about what he saw, but oh, maybe he can ask Kiku.

rolls his eyes, giving him the money. "Hai, of course I will. Now, what did you see?"

takes the money. "...about the pandas?"

raises an eyebrow. "Hm?"

"You asked what I said. I said the pandas are nice and you should treat them well."

is slowly reaching for the comic to stash it away and pretend it does not exist. His hands touch it and he begins to hide it.

".. No, no. I asked what did you *see*. That is the only reason I bought the pandas."

waits with his arms crossed, an exasperated look on his face. You're not escaping the comic incident that easy LiXiang.

thinks Japan should have been clear from the beginning. "Oh. That." He shrugs. "I saw some guys snogging."

does not know what comic. As it is out of sight. He is pretending it does not exist.

was as clear as he could have managed. ".. A-ah. Well, what would have been the point of recording it?"

has a copy of a certain page, because he knew LiXiang would be difficult. Sigh.

folds his hands together. "I know those guys...." He is still pretending it does not exist... "Japan, xian sheng is here. He probably needs-

-your help."

"I see... oh, ah.." He looks over at Yao. "With what?"

hopes that will distract China enough so that he may sneak off somewhere.
