After leaving Big Ben, Rita took little Griseo and Mashiro to the London Eye.
Even though Mashiro and Griseo were with her, men still came up to strike up conversations with Rita from time to time.
Though none of them behaved excessively and were fairly polite, Rita still found them unbearably annoying. Those who approached her either wanted her contact information or invited them to dinner, but naturally, Rita had no interest.
She would never take advantage of such petty benefits. Besides... dating was nowhere near as enjoyable as painting, so she turned them all down.
However, when they passed a camera shop, Rita suddenly went in with great enthusiasm and bought a camera. It was rather expensive, costing the equivalent of seventy thousand yuan.
But Rita clearly did not take the price to heart.
One of Mashiro Shiina's paintings could buy hundreds or even thousands of them.
With the camera in hand, Rita quickly adjusted it, then took a picture of Griseo and Mashiro ahead of her. The lighting and everything else were perfect.
As they approached the Ferris wheel, Griseo was clearly intensely interested in the enormous structure before her. Seeing how much Griseo liked it, Rita knew she had made the right choice.
"Do you like it, Griseo?"
"I do."
Griseo nodded.
"Then let's go buy tickets."
With that, Rita led the two of them over to buy tickets, though there were quite a lot of people.
This was the London Eye. Its full name was the Coca-Cola London Eye. Located on the banks of the Thames River in London, it was the world's first observation Ferris wheel and, as of 2005, the largest one in the world. It was one of London's landmarks and famous tourist attractions.
It had been built to celebrate the year 2000
