I'm Not a Detective

"Ah, why is it a sightseeing train?" Qingmi Ruri led Yuki Kakumaru and Takeshi Nanahara to Hirano Railway Station. Under the command of Takeshi Nanahara, they checked in and passed through the station. When they found the train, they were shocked and confused, "You Why did you book a ticket for the sightseeing train?”

Takeshi Nanahara pushed her into the car and said with a smile: "What's wrong with the sightseeing train? Can't the sightseeing train be used for traveling? You ignorant guy, don't discriminate against old trains!"

Qingjian Liuli was forced to get into the car with her big hiking bag, and said angrily: "But we are going to do serious things, not traveling, what are you doing?"

Takeshi Nanahara smiled nonchalantly and said: "It's the same. It used to be dark when taking the normal train, and it was also dark when taking the sightseeing train. Of course, you have to sit more comfortably. And I have coupons for the sightseeing train, so I can save money."

"You're blind and you still like to cause trouble. How can you, a blind man, take a sightseeing train..." This was completely different from Qingmi Ruri's expectation. She thought she would take the express train and quickly find the corner. Maruyuki's mother said it again, but Takeshi Nanahara actually sauntered over slowly.

She muttered to go ahead and found that this train was only divided into carriages, not seats. She stopped in the middle of the carriage and said unhappily: "Sit here."

Kakumaru Yuki was not in high spirits, so she put the suitcase silently and sat down. When she looked up, she realized that she was facing the car window. This kind of sightseeing train does not have seats perpendicular to the aisle like ordinary trains. Instead, passengers sit with their backs to the aisle. They can face the scenery outside the window without turning their heads. There is also a narrow table like a bar counter in front of them, which extends from the end of the carriage. To the other end, there is no break.

It was her first time to ride this kind of train, and it was a bit novel. However, she was not in a good mood at the moment, and the novelty was just that. After taking one look, she lowered her head again, waiting to arrive at the Asahikawa River.

Takeshi Nanahara also sat down, turned his head left and right, and found that there were very few people. He said with satisfaction: "Sure enough, this kind of train is more comfortable, at least it doesn't feel like a stuffy train."

Qingjian Liuli glanced at him sideways, and continued to scold him for wasting his time. She decided that she would never let him book tickets when she traveled far in the future, and it was more reliable to do it herself.

That's right, you still have to be the master of your own affairs. This piece of shit never makes people worry.

She touched the rope in her hiking bag and hesitated whether to tie up Takeshi Nanahara now to prevent him from making new tricks along the way. The ticket price for the sightseeing train was relatively high - Takeshi Nanahara had a coupon from the police station. By the way, it is cheaper to pretend to be blind. Normally, the price is 50% to 200% higher than the price of ordinary train tickets. The speed is very slow, and the trains do not run regularly, so you can only book tickets in advance. There are really not many passengers, and it doesn’t take long for the train to be boarded. Regardless of the time, the locomotive made a "cone~~" sound like a killing pig, sprayed out a large amount of white air from one side, and started slowly like an 80-year-old man.

Qingjian Liuli listened to the voice and looked at the slowly moving scenery outside the car window with an expressionless face. She felt that she could run faster than this thing, and said speechlessly: "What kind of garbage locomotive is this?"

Takeshi Nanabahara really enjoyed this "click-click-click-click" feeling, and said happily: "The front of the steam locomotive is like this. The sound dynamics are maintained well. It is slow at the beginning, and it will be fine as soon as the speed increases."

Qing Jian Liuli's eyes narrowed even more, but she endured it and asked curiously: "What is dynamic maintenance?"

"Oh, it's just a locomotive that has been eliminated a long time ago. It would be too wasteful to dismantle it directly. Just use it for sightseeing routes. Pull it out and run it two or three times a month. Just keep it and don't scrap it." Takeshi Nanahara said with interest, "Some like it. Train people love to take this kind of train, but this kind of old-fashioned sightseeing train cannot guarantee regular departures. They are all temporary services. If you really want to take a seat, you may not be able to take it. This time we were lucky enough to book a ticket. You Both Kakumaru and Kakumaru should be grateful to me."

Thank you so much. Normal trains can reach the Asahikawa River at six or seven in the afternoon, but I don’t know if I can get there at nine o’clock on this crap!

Qingjian Liuli was too lazy to pay attention to him. It was impossible to change the car now anyway, but of course she was curious. She turned her head and looked around, and found that even the car had an old feel from the 1960s and 1970s, with backless log seats and wooden seats. The narrow table and windows can be opened as wide as you want, and there are some wooden shelves at the connection port of the carriage.

She endured it, but couldn't hold it back. After seeing that the train was very smooth, she got up and went to the wooden shelf to take a look. She found that there were old magazines and books on a wooden shelf, which were probably used by tourists to relax and relieve their boredom on the road. It was quite normal, but In addition, on the shelf are small eight-centi stoves with wire mesh and short-toothed wooden clogs, which look a bit strange.

She has lived for sixteen years, but she has never taken such an old-fashioned sightseeing train. After all, not everyone is as sick as Takeshi Nanabahara. She was confused for a while, so she went back and asked Takeshi Nanabaru: "There are also Bali stoves and stoves on the train." Clogs, what are they for?"

"Of course it's for barbecue." Takeshi Nanahara remembered it. Although he had never eaten it, it was in the book. He wanted to try it for a while, so he immediately ordered her, "Bring a small stove here, and then you can find a dining cart." , let’s see if there are any ingredients that can be baked, buy some and we’ll start baking right away.”

"Ah, barbecue on the train?"

"What's wrong? In the past, you could smoke, drink, and fry steaks on the plane. What's the point of having a barbecue on the train!" Takeshi Nanahara gave her money and asked her to go to work quickly. "There was a fire extinguisher nearby, and the flight attendants were also walking around, burning I won’t kill you.”

Qingmi Ruri also became curious, and immediately brought a small eight-centi furnace - a traditional stove that was said to have existed in the Edo period. It was small but had good fire-gathering properties. As long as eight cents worth of charcoal was burned, it would be enough to make a meal. meal - and then walked down the aisle to the flight attendant and asked if there was anything good to eat.

In fact, after a while, the flight attendant would push the small dining cart and ask her all the way, but Nanabahara Wuji sent her to get it without spending money.

After a while, she came back with a big tray, which contained pickled squid, octopus, sardines and a mess of shellfish. She was super excited and said, "Eat these first. I'll buy them later. Look at those rice cakes made with bean buns." It tastes good and should be delicious once grilled.”

Takeshi Nanahara had already lit the fire and opened the window a little to vent the smoke. He immediately took the big tray and sniffed it carefully, saying with satisfaction: "It's okay, at least it's fresh and not deceptive."

"I think it's pretty good." Qingjian Liuli had already sat down, rolled up her sleeves, and exposed her forearms like snow lotus roots. She did her job, picked up her chopsticks, and started placing small squid and small octopus on the wire mesh, starting the train barbecue journey. .

Takenori Nanabahara reached into his pocket and took out some small thumb-sized bottles, which were full of various seasonings, just waiting to be eaten.

The Bali stove is small and the fire is very strong, and squid, octopus and shellfish are easy to cook. After a while, Takeshi Nanahara tasted the taste and felt that it was okay and could be eaten. He immediately started to season the second time with great interest, while Qingmi Ruri used He picked out a few grilled squid and shellfish on a small plate and handed them to Kakumaru Yuki, saying happily: "Ayuki, come and eat too!"

Eating barbecue on the train is a bit fun!

Kakumaru Yuki actually had no appetite, but being sandwiched between them, it was not good to just sit there. She silently took the small plate and chopsticks, said "Thank you, senior", hesitated and asked, "Senior, do you want it?" Shall I bake it?”

Qingjian Ruri is so keen on maintaining her persona and acting like a gentle, considerate and obedient beautiful JK with no flaws, she is not sure whether she should step in to help. On the other hand, Takeshi Nanabahara is obviously pretending to be blind, but his acting skills are far inferior to those of Kiyomi Ruri. He is not pretending to be anything like it at all. This is the first time she has seen a blind man walking struttingly, but she is not stupid enough to say it directly. After all, these two people Maybe it’s just daily practice.

"No, just wait and eat." Qingjian Liuli didn't think as much as she thought, and continued to work on her hands. Anyway, she was used to serving Takeshi Nanahara, and she was not afraid of adding another child.

Takeshi Nanabahara turned to Kakumaruyuki and said with a smile: "Yes, just eat, and don't worry about gains and losses. We have come here, and worrying about gains and losses will not affect the final result. Why don't we just go happily."

Kakumaru Yuki nodded silently and ate a few bites of the small octopus. She felt that the taste was okay and she felt a little better. Nanabahara Takeshi smiled and said nothing more. He just thought about her taste and gave her some. condiment.

Qing Jian Liuli had already started eating. Even because the food was quite heavy, she felt that the marinade on the train was not tasty. She also poured a little soy sauce from the condiment bottle that Takeshi Nanahara brought with him to dip it in and ate it happily.

Of course, in terms of deliciousness, it is definitely not as good as at home. The standard of Takeshi Nanabahara’s daily food is very high and cannot be compared with other places. But eating on the train is fun and the ordinary food tastes better.

She moved left and right, eating and grilling, and soon the carriage broadcast rang, or the old-fashioned reminder broadcast with electric noise. She tilted her head and listened carefully and said in surprise: "Can you also soak in hot springs on the train?"

Damn it, why didn’t I realize there was such an interesting train before? I foolishly took the JCR line every time.

"You can only soak your feet to relieve tired feet during travel. I don't know which genius figured it out back then. It was very popular in the 1960s and 1970s." Takeshi Nanabahara pointed under the table and said casually, "But don't expect too much. It’s high, it’s fake hot spring water that’s artificially prepared and heated by the locomotive.”

Oh, no wonder there is a groove under the table, which is used to soak your feet!

Qing Jian Liuli immediately wiped her hands, went to get three pairs of short-toothed wooden clogs to prepare, and opened the valve under the table. Soon a trickle of water came, injecting a slightly sulfur-smelling flow into the grooves on the floor under the table. "Hot spring water", I don't know what the structure is under the carriage. It seems to be able to circulate endlessly. The water keeps pouring in, but the water tank is always full, and the water temperature is always maintained at the same temperature. It is indeed a bit like a hot spring.

She studied it curiously for a while, then looked around and found that there were not many people in this carriage, and they all kept their distance consciously, just enjoying the trip with relatives and friends, so she felt free to take off her shoes and socks and clean her little feet. Soak it in and let out a comfortable hum.

The water temperature was warm and it was still circulating. It was itchy as if being bitten by a small fish. It was indeed a bit comfortable.

At this time, the speed of the train suddenly slowed down again, and it slowly stopped next to a small and old wooden station. It is no wonder that this train does not care whether it leaves on time or not. It does not know how many times it will stop along the way. It will stop early and late in the middle. It's smoothed out after a squeeze. Anyway, everyone on the sightseeing route is just as slow and can't block other cars.

This is a small village. Many people sell souvenirs and local products on the platform when the train is coming. Some passengers actually go down and pick and choose at will. Qingjian Liuli also stretched his head from the window to watch curiously. , and after a moment he said in surprise: "There is an station lunch!"

There was still a lot of money left from Takeshi Nanabahara just now, so she immediately put on her clogs and ran out of the car. In the blink of an eye, she picked up three bento boxes, one for each of Takeshi Nanabahara and Yuki Kakumaru, and said excitedly: "You guys Look, the lid of this lunch box is a mask, and I am the Bodhidharma monk."

Yuki Kakumaru looked at the lid of her lunch box and found that it looked like Shuten Douji. This lunch box was probably a souvenir or souvenir. Seeing that Ruri was so simple and happy, Qingyue couldn't worry anymore and looked at the lid for a moment. I also find it quite interesting.

Takenori Nanabahara looked at the contents of the bento box and found that it was an ordinary five-flavored bento. It contained half a boiled egg, a boiled prawn, a piece of scallop meat, some dark green pickled vegetables and a piece of miso tofu. He immediately He lost interest and gave it back to her: "Eat it for you!"

Qingmi Ruri didn't mind it, so she immediately took it and put it aside. She decided that there was nothing to do on the way, so it was just a good time to eat. She also had a heated discussion with Kakumaru Yuki about the dishes inside, and planned to go down to the next station to see what delicious food there was. He also asked Kakumaru Yuki if he wanted postcards and if he wanted to collect station seals.

Soon, the locomotive screamed like a pig, puffed out white steam, and left the unknown station, continuing towards the Asahikawa River. Qingmi Ruri set up another eight-centi stove and began to bake more things. After all, Yuki Kakumaru is just a child. She found that her senior pretended to be an ordinary JK and was very into the show, and was actually very easy to get along with. She also started to join in the fun, helping her to bake with her, and the food was delicious.

Qingmi Ruri took a bite of rice, swallowed half of a hard-boiled egg, and then took a bite of a small sardine that was so sizzling that it could even break the bones. She swung her feet in the "hot spring water" and rubbed Nanabahara Takeshi. With her big hooves, she looked at the lakes, grasslands, cattle and sheep passing by slowly outside the window, and felt that it would be great if it was winter. The scenery would be better in winter. She would not be bored by riding in the car for a whole day, and would even enjoy it more.

The sightseeing train is really a good thing. The only flaw is that the table is too narrow and cannot put many things on it, and the ingredients are not complete.

If only we could set up a copper hot pot, cook some fat and tender lamb, and let Takeshi Nanabahara mix some secret sesame sauce for dipping, and finally dip the steaming lamb into it, It's so satisfying to roll one roll and eat it in one bite!

What a pity, what a pity!
