The narrator tries to explain to the children why they would want to go outside on a hot day. He tells them that it's forbidden to take notes in a store, and that the woman next to them on the train doesn't let them bring their cameras in. The narrator also tells the children that they're being spied on at the big retail stores. He says that he's sure that the stores are looking at his personal information. He also says that the country where he lives is not diplomatic with Japan, so he needs to find a place to blend in.
