Bottle

Childan
had
exclaimed
without
warning
.
The
Japanese
had
blinked
uncomprehendingly
.
"
We
used
to
collect
the
tops
from
milk
bottles
.
As
kids
.
The
round
tops
that
gave
the
name
of
the
dairy
.
There
must
have
been
thousands
of
dairies
in
the
United
States
.
Each
one
printed
a
special
top
.
"
The
officer
’
s
eyes
had
glinted
with
the
instinct
.
"
Do
you
possess
any
of
your
sometime
collection
,
sir
?
"
Naturally
,
Childan
did
not
.
But
…
probably
it
was
still
possible
to
obtain
the
ancient
,
long
-
forgotten
tops
from
the
days
before
the
war
when
milk
had
come
in
glass
bottles
rather
than
throwaway
pasteboard
cartons
.
And
so
,
by
stages
,
he
had
gotten
into
the
business
.
Others
had
opened
similar
places
,
taking
advantage
of
the
evergrowing
Japanese
craze
for
Americana
…
but
Childan
had
always
kept
his
edge
.
"
Your
fare
,
"
the
chink
was
saying
,
bringing
him
out
of
his
meditation
,
"
is
a
dollar
,
sir
.
"
He
had
unloaded
the
bags
and
was
waiting
.
Absentmindedly
,
Childan
paid
him
.
Yes
,
it
was
quite
likely
that
the
client
of
Mr
.
Tagomi
resembled
Major
Humo
;
at
least
,
Childan
thought
tartly
,
from
my
point
of
view
.
He
had
dealt
with
so
many
Japanese
…
but
he
still
had
difficulty
telling
them
apart
.
There
were
the
short
squat
ones
,
built
like
wrestlers
.
Then
the
druggist
-
like
ones
.
The
tree
-
shrubflower
-
gardener
ones
…
he
had
his
categories
.
And
the
young
ones
,
who
were
to
him
not
like
Japanese
at
all
.
Mr
.
Tagomi
’
s
client
would
probably
be
portly
,
a
businessman
,
smoking
a
Philippine
cigar
.
And
then
,
standing
before
the
Nippon
Times
Building
,
with
his
bags
on
the
sidewalk
beside
him
,
Childan
suddenly
thought
with
a
chill
:
Suppose
his
client
isn
’
t
Japanese
!
Everything
in
the
bags
had
been
selected
with
them
in
mind
,
their
tastes
