Maybe it was to distinguish him from Mister Rabbit?
Lu Xiaoxiao guessed.
Still, it worked well.
The store manager's outfit made Lu Xiaoxiao's eyes light up.
He really did look like someone from a fairy tale.
It was very interesting.
It also made the experience feel immersive.
"So cute."
Lu Xiaoxiao carefully reached out and touched Mister Rabbit's ears.
Unfortunately, Mister Rabbit's ears weren't soft and floppy.
Now that she'd seen Mister Rabbit, Lu Xiaoxiao began looking for Alice.
The girl hurried through the bookstore, her face full of delight.
Xiao Xiao's gaze swept over the books on the shelves.
They were all different editions and translations of Alice in Wonderland.
The shelves were packed full of them.
The store manager must really love this story.
Xiao Xiao's eyes curved slightly.
He casually pulled out a book.
Oh.
He was in luck.
It was in a language he didn't know.
Even luckier, the book had beautiful illustrations.

He didn't need to know the language to easily follow the story.

Most people would probably jump if they saw it without warning.
Xiao Xiao smiled faintly.

It was soft.
"Ah!"
The girl's scream cut off abruptly.
Xiao Xiao immediately looked over.
"Little Deer?"
Lu Xiaoxiao covered her mouth.
Hearing her name, she instinctively looked toward the voice.
Xiao Xiao quickly walked over to Lu Xiaoxiao.
