Tokyo Girlfriend Illustrated Book

With such an episode, Shizuka Hiratsuka forgot to get angry. After all, a stable and mature woman like her would never make a mistake about what she really needed to think about.

Once something like time is lost, it cannot be recovered. If you want to compensate, you can only get better things in the future time. How to balance the past, present and future is something that only a beautiful and wise woman like her can master.

Therefore, the top priority is not to blame her friends for leaving her to travel, but to immediately integrate into and enjoy the vacation. Otherwise, why would she have traveled more than a hundred kilometers to come here without even eating dinner? Although I didn't eat dinner simply because I couldn't find anyone to play with, so I was too sad and decadent, so I lay on the sofa and didn't want to move.

Unlike Yukinoshita Yukino, who has to ask what each dish is when looking at the menu, Hiratsuka Shizuka is not too familiar with izakayas. She is an "uncle-type beauty". One day, she fights with people in the pub and then calls It’s not surprising that Xueye went to fetch people.

As soon as I sat down, it was a little izakaya etiquette. I skipped a bite of food and drank two large glasses of beer on an empty stomach, and then I loudly complained that I was hungry.

"Private Marseille, I'd like a hamburger set meal."

Shizuka Hiratsuka raised her hand to greet the waiter, and the answer she received was naturally that they did not sell hamburger meat in the store. She was not discouraged, but seriously taught the waiters.

"The beef meatball skewers in your store are not pre-made, are they?"

"Hi, although it's not hand-beaten beef, it's freshly purchased that day."

"Then if you make the beef balls bigger and add more sauce after grilling, wouldn't they become hamburger meat? Ask the boss, maybe there will be a signature dish in the store in the future."

Shizuka Hiratsuka patted the waiter on the shoulder like an uncle. Fortunately, she was a beautiful woman, otherwise Hojo Kyosuke would have taken action.

The waiter apologized and asked the general.

After the others left, Miki Okudera criticized her: "If you really want to eat, you should find another store instead of embarrassing the clerk."

As a person working in the catering industry, she obviously doesn't like this kind of customer.

"Hehehe~~ I didn't say you must eat it. If the boss doesn't agree, forget it. The ingredients are all ready-made. Not only does it reduce the steps of skewering the beef on bamboo skewers, but it also sells for one penny more. It's completely It’s WINWIN~”

Shizuka Hiratsuka said with a smile, and then started to show off the special menus of the izakayas she was familiar with in various districts in Tokyo, such as spicy cabbage rice balls, miso chazuke rice, etc., and invited everyone to join them later. Go try it.

"This is a symbol of my friendship with those shops!"

she sighed.

This kind of thing is not surprising. The owner of Neon Izakaya cooks in front of the guests, and the proportion of service is much higher than that of ordinary restaurants. While cooking, I also chat with customers. If the boss wants to try new dishes, he will give them to customers for free to try and ask for their opinions. Regular customers who have eaten delicious dishes elsewhere will also let the boss try them. This kind of regular customer business is very stable, so various media reports often appear about century-old shops and the like, with an old pot passed down for five generations.

Unlike Eri and Yukino who were interested in the special menu, Hojo Kyosuke had no desire to respond, because if those hidden dishes were really delicious, they would have been written into the menu by the boss. This kind of behavior will not cause dissatisfaction among regular customers. Instead, every time they hear someone ordering this dish while eating, they will proudly say, "This dish was created by the boss and I together."

So it is certain that Hiratsuka Shizuka might have thought up those dishes after she drank until she was unconscious and forced the boss to cook them for her.

The owner of the cat house is indeed a person who has been serving cats for generations. He immediately asked the waiter to come up and give a positive reply, and also thanked the guests for their valuable opinions.

Hiratsuka Shizuka became even more proud, eating one skewer in each hand with great enthusiasm.

The food at Neon Izakaya is not actually about taste, the most important thing is how it goes with the wine. Moreover, the main source of profits is also drinks, so many stores will introduce cheap side dishes to attract customers. For example, if you add more salt to grilled chicken skin skewers, you can drink two large glasses of draft beer on one plate of grilled skewers.

There were seven people at the table, and only the four eldest sisters were of drinking age. Needless to say, Eri-ri is a beautiful girl who may still be suspected of being underage when she reaches forty. She is a staunch coke fan. If she insists on doing something fancy, just mix a cola with various colas. This guy is very good at drinking Coke. How good is he? When four or less colas are mixed together, she can accurately name each cola. If other carbonated drinks are mixed in, she can also achieve a 70% accuracy rate.

Hojo Kyosuke has a handsome face and looks very young, but he is tall and has an extraordinary temperament. Anyone who takes a look at him will only think of three words: handsome guy, and will not have any extra thoughts to think about how old he is. In addition, there are many beautiful older sisters sitting around him. If he wasn't so elegant, someone would ask him which family he belongs to, so drinking is very natural.

In the end, there was Yukinoshita Yukino, who did not drink alcohol or drinks and only drank ice water. Although he concealed it very well, Hojo Kyosuke, who was very observant, could tell at a glance that the guy was also ready to try alcoholic drinks. But she was a righteous superwoman after all. No matter how much Yang Na was tempted, she just picked up the beer and sniffed it gently.

"I know, it's a taste I don't like. Also, sister, the taste of beer in your mouth is too strong, stay away from me!"

Yukino expelled her sister as usual.

The dishes ordered before were served in a steady stream. Except for Hiratsuka Shizuka who was too hungry, everyone else ate and drank very quickly, which perfectly matched their beautiful appearance.

Yangno put down the sign and started chatting:

"When I was in fourth grade, I was taken to a banquet by my mother and the others. I remember the person opposite was a member of the Edo Ward Council. There was a chicken dish that was very delicious. The aunt opposite saw that I liked it and asked the waiter for more. Give it to me. I was happy at first because my mother didn’t object, but I soon regretted it.”

At this point, she stopped. She placed her left hand on the low table and supported her chin with the back of her hand. She looked at the others to give them time to think about their reactions. This kind of chatting skills has been completely integrated into her body. Chatting will not become a one-person sharing meeting. Everyone around her will enjoy the fun of chatting under her command.

"It's almost like being a puppet master."

Yukinoshita Yukino thought as she looked at her sister's eyes that were more hydrated and seemed to have a bit more affection after drinking wine.

You can easily control other people's emotions through words and eyes, without anything unnatural.

The girl sighed in her heart, she still needs more and more efforts.

As expected, Yinglili raised her hand enthusiastically. She was not too familiar with this kind of topic.

"I ate too much and had to go to the bathroom, so it was difficult!"

Her eyes were extremely sure, and she further revealed:

"One time I drank too much and couldn't sit still. But my mother is very sensible. As long as I give her a look, she will help find various reasons to take me out."

The idiot's words immediately made everyone laugh. Needless to say, fashionable urban women like Yangno and Miki, even Yukino knew that they must restrain their greed when attending a banquet, otherwise if they accidentally eat too much, their long and close-fitting clothes will be eaten. The slim figure highlighted by the skirt will be ruined by the bulging belly.

Only a little girl like Ying Lili would have such troubles. She couldn't eat any cute dresses or loose T-shirts. Older sisters like them, who are familiar with it, still prefer long skirts that can show off their beautiful figures.

Yangno looked at the innocent Eirili, a trace of undetectable envy flashed in her smiling eyes. Yinglili, whose family background is even more prominent than those of her sisters, is like a princess from a fairy tale. By comparison, she looks like a woman who was trained by a small noble family to become a vicious queen.

Ha ha ha ha--

The moment this idea came to her mind, she was made to laugh first, which made Yinglili think that she had said the wrong thing.

Yang Nai said quickly:

"Mrs. Spencer is such a lovely mother, but my mother is not that reasonable."

She shook her head and didn't say much. It was not a wise thing to reveal her family's misfortunes in front of her friends, unless the next step was to sell things by fraud. Otherwise, this will only allow others to directly bring the bad things in their own homes onto themselves, saying, "You have become so extreme because your mother is so harsh." That's what it means.

Just like Mrs. Yukinoshita's wives, even if they don't know Harano and Yukino, they will praise them for being smart and cute girls. As for Yukinoshita Harano's friends, even if they have never met Mrs. Yukinoshita, they will imagine her as an elegant and beautiful woman.

Family happiness can be extended to family members.

"It's not a matter of eating too much. I understood this kind of thing after attending the first banquet."

Yangno said with a smile.

Yinglili asked in confusion: "What is that?"

"I got a bone in the chicken."

Ying Lili was startled: "Bones? Is it the chef's problem? No, the chicken must have bones."

"That's not the point. The problem is that I didn't know what to do with the bone at the time."

Yangno smiled beautifully.

Yukino also frowned and said, "Deal with it? Can't you just spit it out?"

Yangno turned her pointed chin on the back of her hand and looked at her sister with her big watery eyes. She chuckled and said:

"I remember that the table we ate at was a large round table covered with a white tablecloth with an orchid pattern. The chicken was served on a heart-shaped white porcelain plate. Apart from that plate, there was only a glass of water in front of me. I looked at everyone carefully. plate and found that no one had bones in their plate.”

Speaking of which, everyone understands a little bit. Neon women have a lot of rules. Going to a ramen shop, going to a chain fast food restaurant, or buying roasted sweet potatoes by yourself are all things you “can’t do if you’re embarrassed.”

Yinglili put on an expression of deep understanding and sorrow, and said sadly: "As a lady, it is indeed a bit indecent to spit out bones, so it is best to avoid eating this kind of food as much as possible."

After saying that, she swallowed the meat in her mouth hard.

Yukinoshita Yono looked at the grilled chicken wings in Eri's hand and the corners of her mouth covered in sauce, and showed a polite yet elegant smile.

Hojo Kyosuke smiled and handed over the wet towel.

"So that's what you did in the end, please stop being so appetizing!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka said dissatisfiedly that their two families were old friends, and she had heard too much about the tragic past of the Yukinoshita family, and now she just wanted to have fun. As for why the mafia lady was old friends with the construction company and the politician's Yukinoshita family, there was no need to explain more. Maybe the ancestors of the two families had the same surname.

Seeing someone impatient, Yang No immediately shut up and picked up the beer to slowly taste it. It didn't matter whether it was a story or not. She enjoyed the performance of those people after being moved by her words.

Hiratsuka Shizuka was immediately angry and screamed, asking Yang No to confess immediately and tell her about her tragedy.

The two of them were having a good time, but Eriri, who was happily eating grilled chicken wings, put down the skewers, and a hint of bad luck appeared on her little face.

Damn, how did I see the shadow of Kasumigaoka Utaha from Yukino's sister?

In the end, Yang No still told the sequel of the story, after all, Yukino and Miki were also very curious.

"In the end, I chewed the bones and ate them directly."

She said with a smile.

"..."

Hiss——

Eri took a breath of cold air, and regardless of the oil on her hands, she raised her hand to cover her chin. Her teeth started to hurt.

No, her esophagus should also hurt!

She raised her other hand to cover her neck, and it felt like there was bone debris sliding down her esophagus, which hurt her so much.

Everyone has always known that Yang No is a ruthless person, but no one knows that she is so ruthless.

Okudera Miki couldn't help but say: "It shouldn't be like this, right? Mrs. Yukinoshita is strict, but she won't ask you to do this, right?"

Such thoughts also appeared in Yukinoshita Yukino's mind. Although her mother is meticulous at home, she is not such a cruel person. Dad likes to pour bottled beer into a cup and only gets complained.

Yang No took in everyone's expressions and nodded with satisfaction. The only flaw was that a certain man was still calm.

"Of course I asked my mother later and asked her how to deal with this situation."

Everyone looked at Yang No curiously, looking forward to Mrs. Yukinoshita's response.

"Mother looked at me in surprise, and then said, of course I should eat it."

"..."

Hiss——

Not only did Eriri have a toothache, but even Yukino Miki took a breath of cold air.

As expected of a mother who could raise a ruthless person like Haruno, she is indeed a peerless ruthless person.

Yukinoshita Yukino silently drank a large glass of ice water.

Haruno nodded with satisfaction when she saw her sister's reaction. (End of this chapter)
