This modal verb was found in a story 'The Lost Key', written byRoderick Hunt & Linda Lui. It was about Kipper had a magic but he lost it. He and his finally found that it was sold by a man who had a shop. Than, they went to the shop but the shop was closed. They were very disappointed and went home. The next day, Kipper and his family went to the shop again. They met the man and Kipper's mum asked this question.
That modal was used in my example because the mother used this modal to ask the man will be more politely.

Hilda, I'm sorry, you're explanation doesn't warrant extra credit. If I want to be polite, wouldn't I use "may" instead of "can"?
