"So...... We're going to take our leave, and we'll come back to visit your Mrs. Fukuyama when we have time......"

Standing outside the gate of Fukuyama's house, Lin Shuichi and Mr. Mori and Mrs. Fukuyama said goodbye to each other, as for what they had just discussed, Mrs. Fukuyama at least seemed very interested, not only asked a lot of questions about the Valley of Light, but also promised to find an opportunity to communicate with her husband as soon as possible.

When Hayashi Shuichi and Mr. Mori left Mrs. Fukuyama's house, they walked all the way in the direction of the station, and Mr. Mori kept looking at the scenery of the street all the way, as if he wanted to see the scenery of the street a few more times, so that he could remember the situation in his mind.

"Mr. Sen, it looks like there is still time, is there a chance to come out, should we take a walk around the neighborhood!"

"Eh, are we? huh...... Good...... But remember, don't tell anyone about it!"

"Uh...... Do you have any concerns? So...... Don't worry, I'm not going to talk to anyone!"

As soon as Lin Xiu finished speaking, he solemnly assured Mr. Sen. And after seeing Lin Xiuyi's smiling reaction, Mr. Sen suddenly seemed to say to Lin Xiuyi with some regret:

"Okawa-kun, it stands to reason...... At your age...... Why do you bother? Forget it......"

Seeing Lin Xiuyi looking at him with a puzzled face, Mr. Sen, who felt that he was a little talkative today, immediately diverted the topic...... I saw him standing on the overpass across the street and looking down the street, and then pointed to a ramen shop in the distance and said to Lin Xiuyi:

"If Okawa-kun is willing, may I ask...... Can you go over there and have a bowl of ramen with me?"

"Of course...... Senior ......"

Lin Xiuyi happily agreed to Mr. Sen's request, and then the two walked down the overpass together, and then walked in the direction of the ramen shop.

……

"Welcome, excuse me...... Is there anything you need?"

"Excuse me, but please bring me a bowl of miso ramen, where's Okawa-kun?"

"Me......? Let's have a soy sauce ramen!"

When Lin Shuichi and Mr. Mori decided on their own tastes, the two sat down in front of the bar, and then quietly watched the little brother of the ramen shop busy inside, perhaps because he had been in the mountains for too long, Mr. Mori almost fascinated by the action of making ramen, and his eyes were full of complicated emotions.

"Hello everyone, I'm here in this episode of "Street Corner Food" to bring you to the restaurant Naples near Mitaka Ichikashikashi Park Station, which is an Italian restaurant run by a mother and daughter, and the most popular is the secret garlic mushroom pasta here......"

Hearing a faint voice on the TV above the corner, Mr. Mori couldn't help but look up. Then he looked in the direction of the TV with some confusion. Seeing this, Lin Xiu hurriedly turned his head.

This is the owner, Ms. Akutsu, and her daughter, and it is the hard work of the mother and daughter that this highly praised family restaurant in the neighborhood has become what it is today. Ms. Akutsu still cries up when she talks about the difficulties she had when she started her business......

"I'm sorry, but I chose to run the restaurant because of my family, and although our ability is limited, we still hope to make food that my family can share happily with......

“…… I'm sorry, but the ramen of the two guests is ready, this is the perjured ramen of this gentleman, and this one is your soy sauce ramen!"

"Thank you!"

When the ramen was delivered to Shuichi Hayashi and Mr. Mori. The two of them immediately took out disposable chopsticks from the chopstick holder, and then began to taste them slowly. Eating the thick barbecued pork and drinking a mouthful of noodle soup full of the aroma of pork bones, Lin Xiuyi's taste buds finally felt unprecedented happiness in the past few days. At this time, he even had the idea that he would never want to return to the Valley of Light.

"It's really delicious!"

"Mr. Sen, if you like it!"

"Ah...... It's been a long time since I've eaten such delicious ramen!"

Mr. Sen politely sighed to Lin Xiuyi, and then focused his eyes on the TV in the corner again, Lin Xiuyi saw this, although he felt a little strange, but he thought of the lack of information sources from the outside world in the Valley of Light, so he also felt understanding.

……

When a bowl of ramen was finished, the two were about to check out and leave. Mr. Sen first took out a few coins from his pocket to pay for his share of the noodle money, while Lin Xiuyi took out his wallet and took out a banknote and handed it to the ramen boy.

"Nani, senior?"

Noticing that Mr. Sen was looking at him, Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but ask with some curiosity.

"Uh...... It's nothing, Okawa-kun, thank you for coming with me for ramen......! Let's go back quickly!"

"Hmm...... Let's go, senior, the station should be nearby!"

Lin Xiuyi said, while following Mr. Sen out of the room one after another, and after a while, the two came to the nearby station, just when the two were about to enter the station, Mr. Sen suddenly stopped, and then pulled Lin Xiuyi with an embarrassed face and said:

"Wait a minute, Okawa-kun......! I just remembered that someone asked me to bring something important back, if you can, can you lend me 30,000 yen?"

"Three...... 30,000 yen, senior, you ......"

"This money, I'll pay it back to you when I go back, anyway, I have something very important to delay, that ...... Can you just wait for me here?"

Although Lin Xiuyi felt embarrassed, but when he thought of this rare opportunity to close the distance between him and Mr. Sen, he simply stopped hesitating, so he took out his wallet, took out the only three 10,000 yen bills left in it and handed them to Mr. Sen, Mr. Sen said thank you to Lin Xiuyi, then took the banknotes and quickly walked towards the shopping street across the road.

"Mr. Sen, we still have an hour to spare, please hurry up as soon as possible!"

"I see, Okawa-kun, just wait for me here, I'll be back soon!"

Mr. Mori said as he continued to run diagonally across the street. It wasn't until the other party's figure gradually disappeared into the flow of people on the side of the road that Lin Xiuyi said something silently.

"How did he know I had 30,000 yen, didn't he...... Did you just see it when you were at the ramen shop?"

As soon as Lin Xiu saw that there was a resting place on the side of the road, he walked over and sat down, and then watched the time displayed in front of the station while helplessly waiting for Mr. Sen's return.

Ten minutes have passed, and Mr. Sen has not returned! Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but feel a little uneasy!

……

Half an hour has passed, and Mr. Sen still hasn't returned, Lin Xiuyi looked at the real time in front of the station at this time, if the other party doesn't come back after waiting for half an hour, he will have to delay the time of the Valley of Light. Lin Xiu couldn't help but run in the direction that Mr. Sen had left when he thought of this, and at this time, his face couldn't help but show a nervous feeling!
