Kamio Tatsuya's words made Sakura's worry lessen a little, but soon she looked surprised.
"Huh? Kamio-kun even knows about cameras? That's, that's amazing."
Knows about cameras, you're thinking too much.
"I don't know cameras, but I know physics."
Kamio Tatsuya said this lightly, looking like a wise person who lives away from the world.
"That, that's also amazing. I really like taking pictures, but I don't understand cameras at all."
Kamio Tatsuya wasn't sure if it was just him, but he felt like Sakura's ability to talk to people had gotten better.
"Ah, we're here! I remember the repair place is at the counter over there." Kushida, who was leading the way, seemed to know a lot about the electronics store too.
Soon she took Kamio Tatsuya and Sakura to a repair counter inside the electronics store.
But when they got close to the counter, Sakura stopped, her face looking bad, as if she had seen something she didn't want to see.
Kamio Tatsuya noticed her stop. What was in front of them? Besides Kushida, there was only that sloppy-looking store worker.
Sakura didn't seem like the type of person to judge people by how they look, because she hadn't looked at Yamauchi like that, and Yamauchi looked just as sloppy as this store worker.
"What's wrong?"
"Ah, um... that..."
Sakura hesitated, wanting to keep going, but Kamio Tatsuya stopped her.
"Wait, if you don't want to go, it's okay. Give me the camera, I'll go ask."
Hearing that, Sakura looked thankful.
"Thank you, Kamio-kun."
Then, she took out a small pink camera from her bag, and a card, which was the camera's warranty.
"You can find a place to rest over there. There's a bench, you can wait for us there. I'll be right back."
Sakura Airi nodded and quietly sat on the bench as Kamio Tatsuya told her to.
When Kamio Tatsuya went to the counter with the camera, Kushida had already explained the situation. Kushida and the middle-aged store worker were talking happily.
But Kamio Tatsuya thought the store worker was really happy, but Kushida probably found him annoying.
He was trying hard to talk to Kushida. When Kamio Tatsuya came over, he was even asking Kushida to go to the movies to see a girl group's concert.
See? Kushida-chan, this guy is a nerd, I'm not!
If you say I'm a nerd again, I'm going to get angry.
But Kushida didn't look like she was annoyed, which made the guy think he could ask Kushida out.
Seeing this, Kamio Tatsuya admired her. If Kamio Tatsuya was a girl and a guy like that came up to him, he definitely wouldn't be able to stand it.
He might even kick him in the face.
But, this guy looked like he was in his thirties. Is it okay for him to be hitting on a teenage girl?
"Can I see the camera?"
Kamio Tatsuya didn't give him the camera right away. He looked at his name tag. The guy was just a salesperson.
So, Kamio Tatsuya looked around before looking back at him.
"Don't you have a repair person who works here?"
"I'm very sorry, I'm the repair person at the store, and I also work as a salesperson." The sloppy-looking store worker said with a smile.
Kamio Tatsuya looked at him for a few seconds, until he started to feel uneasy, and then gave him the camera.
Even though this guy looked sloppy, he quickly took the camera apart and checked it.
"Hmm~ I think the impact damaged some parts, so it can't turn on." The store worker quickly gave a conclusion. "Do you have the warranty?"
Kamio Tatsuya gave him the things Sakura had given him earlier.
"It was bought here, and it's still under warranty. The repair will take about two weeks." After checking the warranty, the store worker said again, "If you want to repair it, you just need to fill out this repair form."
That's strange.
Even though Kamio Tatsuya brought the camera over, this store worker kept looking at Sakura, who was sitting on the bench not far away.
Kamio Tatsuya moved, blocking his view.
"Can't you fix it right away? If you know it's a broken part, you can just replace it, right?"
"Sir, please don't make things difficult for me."
Don't make things difficult for you?
You're making things difficult for me, you idiot!
Kamio Tatsuya knew a little about fixing small electronics. When he was in middle school in his past life, he fixed the tape recorder at home himself.
So after the camera was taken apart, he quickly saw what was wrong.
A wire on the motherboard was broken. If he soldered it back on, it should be fixed right away.
Saying that, Kamio Tatsuya took the disassembled camera and put the wire in the right place.
Then he used his other fingers to press the power button.
The camera screen lit up right away, just as Kamio Tatsuya had expected.
"It's just a broken wire, but it takes two weeks to fix? It's hard to believe your service is good."
Saying that, ignoring the surprised looks of the store worker and Kushida, he took the other parts of the camera and put the camera back together.
"Kushida, let's go."
"Huh? Aren't we going to repair it?"
"No need. Let's go buy some tools at the hardware store. I can fix this little problem." Kamio Tatsuya smiled confidently.
Watching the two leave, the electronics store worker ground his teeth, his eyes full of hatred.
"H-how is it?"
Seeing Kamio Tatsuya coming back with the camera, Sakura seemed very worried.
"Let's go to the hardware store. Kushida, please lead the way."
"H-hardware store?"
Sakura was confused, but she still followed Kushida and Kamio.
When they got to the hardware store, the worker was a young and pretty lady, the complete opposite of the middle-aged guy before.
And here, Kamio Tatsuya quickly found what he wanted - a soldering iron set.
"Can I use the workbench?"
The hardware store owner didn't know what Kamio Tatsuya was going to do, but she was very kind and let him use it.
Then, Kamio Tatsuya borrowed a screwdriver and took the camera apart again.
"It's just a broken wire on the motherboard, I just need to connect it."
Kamio Tatsuya smiled confidently, then put on rubber gloves, plugged in the soldering iron, and started working, holding the soldering iron in one hand and the solder in the other.
In less than a minute, the broken wire on the camera was soldered back on.
"Okay, try it."
Sakura took the camera Kamio Tatsuya handed her and instinctively pressed the power button. The screen lit up right away.
"It's on, the screen is on."
Sakura's face showed obvious happiness.
"Give it to me, I'll help you put it back together."
After working for a few more minutes, Kamio Tatsuya put the camera back together.
"Here you go."
"T-thank you, Kamio-kun."
