Furthermore, a remote unit is connected to the terminal and the host unit and includes a remote database for storing information, as information of a second plurality of items, information of the items selected by the host unit in the remote database. The remote database information is used for determining whether or not a response to the terminal inquiry is present within the information of the second plurality of items. The host unit returns, to the terminal, the remote response when it is determined that the response to the terminal inquiry is present within the information of the second plurality of items. On the other hand, the host unit also transmits the terminal inquiry, as the remote inquiry, to the host unit to return the host response to the terminal as the remote response when it is determined that the response is not present within the information of the second plurality of items.
