Tokyo life starting with painting

"Hey? Sister Lizi, I'm looking for a husband for you! This big brother is very good-looking!"

Sachiko Hasegawa threw herself into her sister's arms, which made Riko Hasegawa also open her mouth and was speechless for a while.

She was originally going to prepare menus and hot towels to warm the guests' hands, but before she could, she saw her sister muttering next to the guests and not knowing what to say.

This made her couldn't help but half-took Hasegawa Sachiko, and at the same time lowered her head and apologized to Higashinoji: "I'm very sorry! Guest, this is my sister. I didn't watch her when she was busy in the kitchen, and I really caused you trouble. sorry."

Originally, the little guy Sachiko Hasegawa was supposed to be doing homework upstairs, but she sneaked down.

This is not the first time this little guy has done this. Even though Hasegawa Riko has always had a good temper, she is a little angry. She plans to give Hasegawa Sachiko a hard spanking after apologizing this time.

There is a saying that goes well, the harder you laugh now, the harder you will cry later.

Sachiko Hasegawa obviously didn't know the seriousness of the matter, and still stood there giggling happily.

Hasegawa Riko bowed again and again, lowering her head, but she was a little surprised when she lowered her head: "Are you the one who is at Tokyo Animation Production Company today? Are you Mr. Higashino Higashino?"

Only then did she discover Higashinoji's identity.

After all, Higashinoji is considered a celebrity in the industry. She has been mentioned as a former voice actor, and she has even seen Higashinoji being interviewed on TV.

But today Higashino had half of his face covered, and he was also wearing a coat, covering his whole body, so she didn't recognize him at all.

"It's me." Higashinoji smiled and nodded: "We met just now, Miss Hasegawa."

"Ah, yes. We have met." Hasegawa Riko said "ah" several times, and it seemed that she obviously had many things to ask Higashinoji.

But she still swallowed these words: "Excuse me, Mr. Higashino and Mr. Kuromiya, do the sukiyaki pots use beef or pork?"

Her memory is obviously good, and she can even remember the name of Akisa Kuromiya next to her.

"Is there any more pork sukiyaki pot?" Higashinoji asked curiously.

Japanese sukiyaki has always been based on beef. Hasegawa Riko's restaurant also offers pork sukiyaki, which naturally surprised Higashinoji.

"Yes, because there are some customers who don't like beef and the pork sukiyaki is pretty good, we keep it as a dish in our restaurant."

Hasegawa Riko knelt on the ground and said with her head lowered.

"What do you want to eat, Kuromiya-senpai?" Higashinoji turned his head and looked at Kuromiya Meisa.

After all, he also brought Akisa Kuromiya with him, so naturally he couldn't just follow his ideas.

"Beef." Akisa Kuromiya answered without hesitation.

She was as precious as ever, but she clearly expressed her desire to eat beef sukiyaki.

Then Kuromiya Meisa looked at Hasegawa Riko again, her eyes a little confused: "Ms. Hasegawa, there is something I want to ask the previous shop owner?"

Yeah, where was the previous shop owner?

In Kuromiya Meisa's impression, the shop owner here should be a relatively amiable middle-aged uncle, and he has a pretty good relationship with Chimi Nagawa.

Thanks to Chimi Nagawa's favor, Akisa Kuromiya also got to know the shop owner, and every time he served food, he would serve a lot of food.

Why did you become the chef of Riko Hasegawa today?

"Uh" Hasegawa Riko heard Kuromiya Meisa's question, her mouth moved, she raised her head and glanced at her, then lowered her head, pursed her thin lips, and her delicate face seemed to be trembling.

but--

"Ms. Hasegawa, it's almost time to serve food next door."

There was a greeting from outside, which stunned Hasegawa Riko. Then she lowered her head and apologized: "Sorry, there are some things to deal with outside. Let's talk about it later."

She immediately got up and left, taking Sachiko Hasegawa with her.

Looking at the delicate figure of Hasegawa Riko leaving, Higashinoji felt a rare feeling of goodwill in his heart.

Hasegawa Riko did not behave like many people in society. After meeting Higashinoji, she would desperately seek favors and build relationships. Instead, she did the job at hand very seriously and did not disturb his customer's dining time. .

You must know that Higashino Tsukasa is the original author of "The Ring". As long as he opens his mouth, it is not difficult at all to give Hasegawa Riko a chance to be nominated.

But Hasegawa Riko didn't say anything, she just did her current job without saying a word.

This serious and serious character made Higashino very satisfied, and also made Higashika respect the other party.

Tonoji wiped his hands with a hot towel and waited for a while before Hasegawa Riko put everything on the table.

Mirin sauce, enoki mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, konjac shreds, green onions, snowflake beef, two pieces of tofu, and two sterile eggs

She knelt on the ground, exposing a small section of her tender neck, and quickly placed the cast iron pot on the small gas tank stove, and then said: "You two, please use it slowly."

Hasegawa Riko worked quickly and steadily, and her seriousness was visible to the naked eye. She even tried turning on and off the flame several times, and only handed it over to Higashinoji and Kuromiya Meisa after confirming that there was no problem.

After finishing these things, Hasegawa Riko raised her head again and said sheepishly: "Miss Kuromiya, I'm sorry, I still have something to do over there. I'll talk to you about my father's affairs after I finish my work."

After saying this, she bowed again and exited the room.

Higashinoji on the other side could understand her troubled expression, but since she had something to do with Kuromiya Meisa, it didn't have much to do with him.

It's not that Higashino is indifferent, but it's not a good thing to be nosy.

He cracked the eggs and added beef to the pan to moisten it. When the butter became fragrant, he added scallions and fried them. When the aroma became fragrant, he added beef.

Since sukiyaki has the word 'saki' in it, there is naturally a frying process, so Tonoji didn't rush to add the sauce, and waited until both sides of the beef were cooked a little before pouring mirin on it. Juice - with the sound of "sizzling", the aroma is forced out from the beef and green onions, and the whole sukiyaki pot becomes steaming.

Higashinoji wrapped the beef dipped in mirin sauce and green onions, mixed it with some egg liquid, and ate it

call

Not bad indeed.

It's just a little on the sweet side, while Higashino's taste is on the salty side.

On the other side, Kuromiya Meisa also started to take action on her pot. Higashinoji also found a topic and chatted with her word by word.

Most of them are about how the original draft of "The Ring" was drawn.

The other party is obviously still struggling with Higashinoji's painting style.

More than forty minutes passed like this, and Higashinoji and Kuromiya Meisa finally finished the dishes on the table.

It was quite comfortable to eat. The only flaw was that the sweet sauce was not suitable for Higashinoji's taste.

At this time, there was a knock on the sliding door, and Riko Hasegawa's voice came from outside: "Sorry, Mr. Kuromiya and Mr. Higashino, I'm disturbing you."

After getting permission, she opened the door and came in: "The kitchen doesn't need my help for the time being, so I came here to tell Mr. Kuromiya about my father."

After finishing speaking, Hasegawa Riko showed a very sorry expression: "I'm sorry, Mr. Higashino, could you please go to the empty room next door and wait for a while?"

This is understandable.

After all, Akisa Kuromiya knows Hasegawa's father, and it's not good for Higashinoji to be here if he has nothing to do with him.

In fact, even if Hasegawa Riko didn't mention it, Higashinoji would take the initiative to bring it up.

He nodded immediately and walked to the empty room next door to wait.

But not long after he sat down, he heard a rustling sound coming from the door.

"Big brother! I know what 12 is! My sister just told me!"

Sachiko Hasegawa looked around and cautiously ran to Higashinoji.

This expression was like that of a thief at home, and Tonoji couldn't help laughing. He called Hasegawa Sachiko over, and asked her with some interest: "Really? Are you so powerful?"

"Yeah!" Sachiko Hasegawa nodded vigorously, and asked him with some confusion: "So when will the eldest brother marry my sister?"

""

It seems that this little guy will never be able to get around this problem in this life.

Higashinoji was speechless and expressed confusion about Hasegawa Sachiko's stubbornness: "Why do you want me to marry your sister so much?"

"Because my brother is good-looking."

Hasegawa Yukiko was not even stunned for a moment. She put her baby-fat little hands on her hips and answered confidently.

After hearing this, Higashino couldn't help but shake his head - well, this little guy is only five years old and is already a good-looking dog at such a young age. It's not going to be good if this continues.

So Higashinoji deliberately frowned, lowered his eyebrows, showing a very indifferent look, and then directly picked up Sachiko Hasegawa and scared her: "I am actually a bad person, the kind of bad person who eats more than a dozen children a day. "

As soon as he said these words, Hasegawa Yukiko was not only not afraid, but also giggled: "Big brother will not eat me."

"Huh?" What's the point of this?

"Because Sachiko is also very good-looking! Even more beautiful than my brother! He's so white and fat!"

Sachiko Hasegawa raised her head and spoke innocently.

""Good guy, Sachiko Hasegawa regards good looks as justice.

The kind who can do whatever they want as long as they look good.

So Higashino thought for a while and pointed to a calendar hanging in the dining room.

There is a small cow calf photographed above, which looks very clumsy and cute.

Each dining room is equipped with such illustrations, which look quite interesting.

He pointed at the painting and asked Sachiko Hasegawa: "Isn't it cute?"

"Niu Niu is very cute!" Hasegawa Sachiko nodded immediately.

"Cuteer than you?"

Well

Sachiko Hasegawa hesitated for a while and nodded.

"I even ate such a cute cow just now. Do you think I will eat you?"

"Huh?" Hasegawa Sachiko was finally stunned.

She glanced at the cows on the calendar and then at Higashi Yesi, then she realized something was wrong and was a little shocked.

But she was grabbed by Higashikata again and couldn't escape at all.

So she struggled for a while, and finally looked at Higashinoji hesitantly: "Brother, please don't eat me, okay?"

"Not good." Touyesi immediately denied it.

"Nana" Hasegawa Sachiko was in a panic, and stood there for a long time, and finally stretched out her chubby little hand: "Sachiko, can you give your brother some of Sachiko's hands to eat? Sachiko still has things to do, so he can't do everything." They were all eaten by my brother.”

"Is there anything else to do?" Higashinoji stopped teasing her, after all, it would be a bit too much to continue teasing her.

"Yes." Hasegawa Sachiko nodded softly and whispered: "Sachiko must stay with my sister, otherwise she will be too pitiful by herself."

one person?

Touyesi stopped talking and did not continue to ask any more questions.

In fact, there was no need for him to continue asking.

Combined with Hasegawa Riko's hesitant expression before and what Hasegawa Sachiko said, Higashinoji probably understood.

Hasegawa Riko's father probably suffered an accident, and from what Hasegawa Sachiko said, it seemed that her mother had been gone long ago.

Higashinoji didn't delve any further, he just smiled and touched Sachiko Hasegawa's head, skipped the topic of 'eating children', and started chatting with her.

Although she said it was nonsense, Sachiko Hasegawa was just a child after all, and her sometimes words would still reveal some of Hasegawa Riko's current situation.

Hasegawa Riko's father did not stop Hasegawa Riko from pursuing her dream of becoming a voice actor.

With the support of her father, Hasegawa Riko also worked very hard. She graduated from a regular voice actor school and then moved to a voice actor agency called AK89.

She worked there for nearly two years, and then with her outstanding ability, she won the dubbing of the second female character in the animation "Ultramarine Philosophy" last year.

Later, at the beginning of this year, "Kanada Murder" became a hit thanks to the excellent dubbing by Riko Hasegawa, and she began to be recognized as a voice actress.

Originally everyone thought it was the beginning of Hasegawa Riko's career.

But no one expected that Hasegawa Riko would fall to the bottom all of a sudden. Not only did she unilaterally terminate her contract with AK89, her father also fell ill and died during this period, leaving only Hasegawa Sachiko and this sukiyaki store.

Until today, she inherited the family business and worked at this sukiyaki shop, and would go to Tokyo Animation Production Company every day to try her luck.

As for the reason for unilaterally terminating the contract, it is naturally impossible for Sachiko Hasegawa to know.

She just raised her head and said seriously: "My sister is not that kind of person. Those people are bad guys who deliberately discredit my sister."

To this statement, Higashinoji did not agree, but he did not object either.

After all, it is definitely inappropriate to jump to conclusions without the truth.

It's just that based on Tonoji's current observation, Hasegawa Riko does not seem like the kind of person who treats her work irresponsibly.

Another thing worth mentioning is that Hasegawa Riko is still his fan.

She has collected the single volume of "Midnight Ring", the entire set of "Midnight Ring" peripherals, and the full volume and special chapters of "The Lonely Gourmet" as a takeaway.

This is definitely a fan.
