But just after he said that, a pile of his stuff collapsed. He looked indescribably embarrassed! And then...That reminds me. This happened when I went to Kourindou recently...
I assume it's supposed to be "に行った" (I went) rather than "に言った" (I said to) here.I told him that he should really clean up his place, but he replied, "this is the way that suits this shop," and ignored my advice.Hmph
