Karent, Uguisudani — Open Till 22:00 on Paper, a Lunchtime Shop in the Roster, and a Middle Course That Costs More Per Minute Than Both Its Neighbors
Karent is a married-woman deriheru in Uguisudani with a three-rung price board, six free-dispatch stations, and 141 women on the books. Two things fall out of the numbers: the 100-minute course the shop recommends is the worst per-minute rate on the board, and the roster — confirmed across both of the shop's own sites — peaks at 3 p.m. and is two-thirds gone by seven. The hours say evening. The schedule says lunch.
