Product Information

Vallagnosc is an acquaintance of Madame Desforges’s and an old school friend of Mouret’s. Throughout The Ladies’ Paradise, Vallagnosc’s temperament and beliefs are contrasted against Mouret’s. Unlike Mouret, Vallagnosc got good grades in… When Arman and Thony meet with Cortes, Garrett and the FBI are only a few miles away in case things go down. But, while Arman leaving to get the product raises a red flag, since Garrett doesn’t know what he is doing, it is Maya showing up that leads him to break protocol and make a move. Lubrich, Naomi (2015). "Der Vampir im Warenhaus. Eine Metapher wird lebendig in Émile Zolas Au Bonheur des Dames" in: Orbis Litterarum: International Review of Literary Studies. 70:6 (in German). pp.474–502. Construction starts on expanding the Ladies Paradise onto the Rue du Dix-Decembre. Despite his dreams being realized, Mouret feels that his power and money are meaningless since he can’t have Denise. Bourdoncle—who is worried that Denise is “the revenge” he has been warning Mouret about—tells Mouret that Denise has been having relations with Deloche. Furious with jealousy, Mouret again confesses his love to Denise. She rejects him again but assures him that she has no lovers. After this, Denise becomes buyer of a new department for children and uses her position to make changes to the Ladies’ Paradise: she opens a school for employees and a maternity ward for the pregnant salesgirls like Pauline, who has since married Baugé.

According to Jigokuraku Kaitai Shinsho, Yuzuriha's name derives from the flower daphniphyllum macropodum, while her new identity as "Sumire" translates to violet. Patterson visibly considers police work to be primarily in service of the island and its people. In some early cases he would pressure the detectives to avoid damaging the island's image or causing stress to individuals who appear innocent when the angle of the investigation appears to be poorly evidenced, rather than pursuing results at all costs. Over time, however, he has adopted a more relaxed attitude in this regard, content to let the detectives follow the evidence and simply offering advice rather than attempting to 'nudge' the investigation. He is also a member of many clubs and organisations, and appears to know many people on the island personally, maintaining friendly relationships rather than using his position of power. He also visibly takes any past failures of his police work and unresolved investigations very seriously and personally, struggling to accept that a new investigation may yield better results. However, he is always willing to accept new evidence, such as the reopening of an eight-year-old murder case where it has just been revealed that the woman arrested had an alibi that went unconfirmed because her companion was visiting on holiday and left before he could be questioned, and is visibly relieved when such matters are finally resolved and the true guilty party exposed. Mei has a limited vocabulary when trying to speak Japanese. This is due to her earlier banishment from Lord Tensen who all developed a proficiency in speaking the language at some point in time. After being taken in by Hōko, whose race also had an understanding for Japanese as well, Mei's smattering developed during her time imitating Hōko's words. [2]After Sagiri had woken up, Yuzuriha and the others hear Gabimaru's report on how he did not find anything in the forest that resembles the Elixir of Life as depicted in the illustration that was given for their mission. Yuzuriha then becomes suspicious of Gabimaru and questions if he knew anything about the elixir. Despite hearing Gabimaru answering that he does not know anything beyond the drawing, Yuzuriha remains in doubt to this. She then hears his report about the bloomed samurai he found in the forest and becomes disgusted with Gabimaru after he feed them kikatsugan that he made using what he could find on the island, only to be reassured that he did not use those plants specifically. After Senta and Sagiri present their analyses of the statues and monsters, the group decide to investigate further on the monsters after deducing that they may give clues to the existence of the Elixir of Life.
