Inside the shop

This is where Layla came from.

Layla had taken the bus to Scilabs after leaving the Chip Shop. Her new destination? Well it was none other then the Navi Shop this time. The doors burst open, and she rushed the counter before anybody else could jump in front of her. "Hey, could I purchase one HP Memory, and one Process Upgrade?"

"Whoa, whoa, okay, slow down, QuickMan, we're not closing up anytime soon," said Suitachi, chuckling as he reached about under the counter to procure the requested upgrades, and set them out for Layla. "Glad to see you're so enthusiastic about it, though. That'll be 1100 zenny. Thanks, and have a nice day!" he said.

Layla GET: HP Memory, Process Upgrade
Layla LOSE: 1100z (-> 100z)

"Thank you sir!" She handed him her hard earned zenny, grabbed the upgrades and zoomed out the store, "I gotta get back to my navi!" After leaving the shop, she would take the bus back home to ACDC Town.

The doors to the Navi Shop opened once more not long after its previous customer came and went, through which Sofia Langley made her way with a cheerful smile on her face and a zenny card clutched in her hand. This time, she had more of an idea what she wanted, and she headed straight for the counter, placing her card on it carefully. "Excuse me! I'd like a set of five Process Upgrades, please," she said.

Purchase:
- Process Upgrade V3-V7 (300+400+500+600+700 = 2500)
Cost: 2500
Remaining: 2895 - 2500 = 395z

Suitachi bagged the groceries upgrades and set them on the countertop. "That will be 2500z please," he said as he took payment and handed Sofia the bag. "Thank you come again."

Sofia GET - Process Upgrade v3-v7
Sofia LOSE - 2500z

"Thanks! I will!" said Sofia, who took her purchases and left promptly, with the door opening up to a setting sun -- hopefully her aunt wouldn't rebuke her for staying out this long.

The door into the Navi Shop opened smoothly as Harke made his way into the little area, looking around and inhaling the smell of freshly stocked electronics. It was good to be back, he thought, as he reached into his pockets to fish out his zenny card, and approached the counter. "Excuse me, I'd like one HP+200 NC program and two Process Upgrades, please," said Harke.

Purchase:
- NCP [HP+200] (15000)
- Process Upgrade V17-18 (1700+1800 = 3500)
Cost: 18500
Remaining: 18585 - 18500 = 85z

"Big spender," Suitachi said as he put the product in a bag and took payment.

LOSE: 18,500z
GET: NCP [HP+200], Process Upgrade v17 and v18.

Layla strolled in alot more peacful this time. Since Frio was actually with her, and not sitting around somewhere in the net. She took a moment to look around the shop. "Hmmm should I get one process upgrade... and a power up... or two process upgrades, and just save up for another chip?" She bounced the decisions back and forth in her head. "Frio what do you choose?"

"Lets go ahead and get two process upgrades, maybe we will get lucky and get some more chips when we hit the net again." Frio replied quickly, wondering what kind of new abilites he could gain from the uprades.

Layla strutted up to the counter and got the clerks attention. "Excuse me sir, I would like to purchase a Process Upgrades two, and three please."

Purchase
Process Upgrade v2: 200
Process Upgrade v3: 300
Total: 500

Suitachi was quick to give Layla her requested upgrades, two processor upgrades swiftly thrown onto the counter. "Five-Hundred Zenny. Thanks for the patronage."

Layla Gain: Processor Upgrade 2+3
Layla Lose: 500z

"Thank you sir." Layla grabbed the goods, and headed to the door.

This is where she went.

"Looks good, thanks," said Harke, as he strolled out with his purchase in hand, with the first of his trip preparations complete.

Walking in and bringing out a zenny card, Joseph would put it down on the table and leaned forwards. Hey there Suitachi, got one of those first tier Speed upgrades sitting around? My navi says he needs one to keep up with the tougher viruses.

Joseph Lose: 5000z
Joseph Bank Account: 5060z
Bank Account after: 60z

As Joseph walked into the store, he would happen to stumble upon Suitachi squinting at a small printout, appearing to attempt to read some small fine print on it. When the customer made his request, the shopkeeper glanced at him for a moment, before smiling and raising a finger. "Sure, hang on," he said, putting the printout aside for the moment, retrieving one of the requested upgrades from underneath the counter. The zenny card was quickly flashed across his cash register, which beeped and indicated the expense deducted.

"Alright, there you go. Have a nice day," he said, retrieving the printout and continuing to peer at it.

Joseph GET: Speed Upgrade V1
Joseph LOSE: 5000z

Joseph would pick up his upgrade and nod at Suitachi. Thanks. My navi will appreciate this. Have fun...doing whatever it is you're doing. Joseph would say as he began to install the upgrade walking out absentmindedly

"Psh, easy! You pick it up, holding it by the scruff of its neck, at arm length so it can't claw you, obviously, then you just stick a gun or crossbow in the back of its skull, and PEW! Blood everywhere! And that's how you'd kill a honey badger virus!"

"You DO realize that it wouldn't be exactly like a real honey badger, correct?"

"Oh, that's true...maybe it shoots fire or something! Whoosh!...That'd be a lot scarier for me, actually..."

"Mmm, true." Whatever triggered the conversation between Diana and HunterWoman, or even what the first part of the conversation was, would remain a mystery for the ages. "So, we agree on what I should get, do we not?"

"Yep yep!"

"Very well, then." Up to the counter she went. "Hello, there. I'd like a Speed Upgrade, three HPMemories, three PowerUPs, and a Process Upgrade." With a press of a button, her PET was ready for wireless money transfer...followed shortly by the transfer of most of her wireless money.

Despite the odd nature of whatever conversation Diana was concluding with her navi, Suitachi seemed far more interested int he long-stretching list of purchases they presented to him once they approached the counter. A couple of times her turned as though to reach below the counter for something, only for Diana to add another item to her request. When she was done, the shop keeper stood where he was, watching her silently, then leaned to the side slightly, tilting his head. A second passed, then another. Once he was sure she was done, he nodded.

"Right. Big list for a lot of first tier stuff. Helping a new navi get off to a good start?" He mused as he crouched down and selected a single white card box from underneath and lifted it to the counter. He opened it up to show each of the items Diana had requested, all neatly packed, then closed it again. He hadn't taken anything out or put anything in, but just slid the package across the counter to her with a smile and confirmed the money transfer.

"All done. Please come again!"

Diana GET: Speed Upgrade V1, HPMem V1-3, PowerUP V1-3, PU V1
Diana LOSE: 14850z

Destin Obscura wandered into the Navi Shop with a smile on his face. "Good day sir. I would like the following items on this list," he said before placing a printed sheet on the counter top.

Navi Customizer Expansion v7: 5,000z
Navi Customizer Expansion v8: 5,250z
NaviCust Program [Millions]: 2,500z
PowerUP v4: 4,000z
Process Upgrade v33: 3,300z
Process Upgrade v34: 3,400z

Total: 23,450z

Just finished with his last deal, the shop keeper looked up and nodded to one of his somewhat regular customers. He took the list, checked it over once, then stepped into the back quickly to shuffle with some boxes. when he returned, he was actually carrying a small bag of complimentary mints, which he poured into the now empty dish, refilling it. That done, he reached directly under the counter and produced a stack of parts all lined up neatly and without fuss, to slide across to Destin.

"Always appreciate the nice neat list. Here you are, come again!"

Destin GET: NC Expand 7 & 8, PU 33 & 34, PowerUp 4, Millions
Destin LOSE: 23450z

"Ooh, mints. Don't mind if I do," Destin said as he paid for the parts and stuffed them into his backpack, taking a mint. "Thanks. See you later," he said before rushing off.
