Mr. Chapman, the owner of the pawn shop, seemed to be in a difficult position and acted as if he was just doing his job. He appeared somewhat bewildered by Keira Leaf's request.
"I understand your concerns, Mr. Chapman, so I won't push you into an uncomfortable position. Here's 200,000. I don't expect you to lower the price; I just hope you can keep the items for me for one more month." Keira handed over a card.
The 200,000 in the card was practically her entire savings. After she went to prison, all her other cards were successively frozen, leaving only a few cards from her earlier years with some remaining change. It was by gathering these sums that she managed to obtain the 200,000.
