Chapter 1713

The shopkeeper squinted at his phone, wondering if his eyes were deceiving him. Where was the rare, precious medicine he was promised? Was this it? Really?

Mirabella caught his bewildered look and asked, "What's up? Is it not available?"

Pulled back to reality, the shopkeeper looked up, his face showing a mix of confusion and disbelief. "Is this everything you need?"

"Yeah, why? Is there a problem?" Mirabella asked, genuinely curious.

"Uh, no..." His cheek twitched as he glanced at the list on her phone again, quietly admitting to himself that relying on superstitions was pointless. The old saying about a twitching left eye bringing fortune was clearly nonsense.

With a sigh, he said, "Give me a sec, I'll get everything for you."

After speaking, he took out his phone, snapped a picture of the list on Mirabella's screen, and headed back to the counter, not forgetting to grab his freshly brewed coffee.

Mirabella watched him, speechless. This shopkeeper was quite the character.
