Shed Seven - See You'se At The Barras

Thanks for waiting.

Peperoncino is ready.

Luke, how many times do I have to tell you to keep that away from me?

It's good.

Vlad, you should try it sometime.

The aroma of olive oil and chili peppers will whet your appetite.

Thanks for the meal.

I can't make good tea when this place stinks of garlic.

I'm out of here.

But we just opened!

Thank you.

Sorry. Excuse me.

Who are you?

What are you doing in here?

Mirror, mirror on the wall...

Take the Piccadilly line for King's Cross Station.

It answered my question before I could ask.

How does this thing predict what I'm going to say?

Thanks for waiting.

We're free, Shinyao! Free!

We're in a new world!

It's always been your dream, Ton.

Since the moment I was born.

But we're still at the airport.

Don't get too carried away yet.

There aren't any double-decker buses, palaces, or cathedrals here.

Today we'll move into our apartment.

Tomorrow we'll buy basic necessities and register for school.

There's only two weeks until the entrance ceremony, so we'll be busy, but...

Ton?

This is London, the city my great-grandmother loved.

You've loved your great-grandmother since you were a child.

Thank you so much, Shinyao.

Where did that come from?

If you hadn't recognized my potential and pushed me in the right direction,

I never would've studied abroad.

But if you hadn't declared you'd study abroad no matter what,

I never would have thought about leaving the country.

I only brought it up.

You handled all the details.

But I couldn't take that first step.

But I, uh...

Ton, you take me to unknown worlds.

You give me courage.

You're my friend for life.

I feel the same way.

Wow, it's London!

Yeah, it really is London.

Everything's so old-fashioned and cool!

Let's start by heading to our apartment.

It's this way.

I'll take this.

You don't need to do that.

It must be heavy.

Not really.

Anyway, you can show me the way.

Okay.

I think we turn right down that street.

We're almost there.

I'm hungry.

We've walked pretty far.

Who said I just needed to show her the way?

I'm hungry, too.

Right?

No way...

Our luggage disappeared.

No, we've been robbed!

What? But I didn't see anything.

There he is!

Hold it right there, thief!

Wait, Ton!

Our passports, credit cards, and phones!

Ton, let's go to the police!

And my great-grandmother's keepsake!

Ton!

Someone catch him!

Thief!

Why isn't anyone helping?

I thought this was a country of gentlemen!

As always, thank you for your patronage.

I'll stop by again sometime.

How uncivilized to disrupt human society.

Wait!

Thief!

Now this brings back memories.

Where am I?

Shinyao?

I know. That spell...

I think this is what it looked like.

Yeah.

Guidance of the sun and moon, come to me.

This is the sixth time.

Thank you.

Oh, no.

Sorry. Excuse me.

Who are you?

What are you doing in here?

No, wait. How were you able to enter?

Well, uh...

I was led here by a magic spell.

Wait, isn't this a cafe?

There shouldn't be anything wrong with a customer entering a cafe.

That's not what I meant.

That spot where you're standing is...

Could it be?

Rijan's alive.

Chop!

Vlad, decide if you're interrogating her or seducing her!

Not that you should be doing either!

You're wrong! I—

E-Excuse me...

We've been waiting for you, descendant of Sha Rijan-sama.

Huh? What?

You're closing early again today?

Come again.

Baileu Ton?

Yeah.

Sha Rijan's my great-grandmother.

Seriously?

Her great-granddaughter.

I see. It's been so long already.

You've met my great-grandmother?

But she passed away almost a hundred years ago.

Yeah. I couldn't protect her back th—

She's legendary at this cafe.

After all, she was the first owner.

What?

This is Cafe Forbidden.

Your great-grandmother opened this cafe so misfits like us

from all over London could work here.

So that's why that spell brought me here.

It's real.

My great-grandmother was protecting me.

She led me here.

Of course.

Her power that remains here is still—

Nice to meet you, miss.

This is Vlad.

He's a lazy guy who can't do anything except make tea.

That's Toryu. He's from your country.

He's a bit large for a waiter, but don't let it bother you.

And I'm Luke.

I'm a super chef and the backbone of this cafe.

Don't forget it.

So, I ran into a thief earlier...

Robbed the moment you arrived, huh?

Sounds rough.

It was.

While chasing after him, I got separated from my friend.

So, what'd he look like?

Age, sex, build, whatever.

Tell us everything you remember.

It's actually a bit strange.

Strange how?

He was kind of blurry and fuzzy.

He simultaneously seemed like one and many.

Sorry. You must not know what I'm talking about.

I see. I know exactly who you mean.

What? From that?

See? It's our turn to shine.

Don't act so self-important. It's just a coincidence.

You think it's a coincidence she got behind the mirror, too?

Rijan-sama must have led her here.

Um, excuse me.

Which way did he run?

I lost sight of him around Chinatown.

Chinatown. That's west of here.

Based on his actions, he sounds like a goblin.

The city becomes infested with them every year around this time.

If he's a goblin, he must have a den invisible to human eyes

where he keeps his stolen treasure.

Normally they use caves or clearings in forests.

In other words, someplace outdoors.

In a city, that'd be a park.
