Ikebukuro, Demaekan distribution station.

It's a small shop in a remote parking lot, with a row of motorbikes neatly arranged in front of the door.

"Brother Mitsui still looks so tough."

"Higashino-kun, this is the brother you said you want me to take care of, who has a bad brain since he was a child, and only has a body of muscles?"

In the store, a middle-aged uncle with a stiff face and a strong figure received the two with a smile on his face.

This muscular uncle named Atsushi Mitsui is the predecessor of Kohei Higashino's Yakuza organization in the Golden Basin.

Currently, as the station manager who has contracted this delivery station, he is in charge of delivering food to the largest delivery site in Japan, "Dezenkan".

As Japan's largest delivery ordering site, Izuzenkan has partnered with tens of thousands of stores throughout Japan to deliver everything from food and beverages to rice, frozen products, condiments, fruits and meats, and adult products.

"Brother Mitsui, I'm Sosuke Araki who came to interview today, it's the first time we meet, please take care of me!"

Although he was very unhappy with the description of "his brain is not good, and he only has a body of muscles", Sousuke Araki still bowed to the other party like a little brother of the Gokudo organization.

"Araki-kun looks very energetic, so I don't need the gang here...... Locomotives are exempt, right, how about the technology? ”

Atsushi Mitsui looked at Sosuke Araki and seemed pleased with his physique.

"I have a large two-wheeler exempt...... Cycling skills...... Try it and you'll know......"

Speaking of this topic, a wicked smile appeared on the corner of Sosuke Araki's mouth.

"Hey, don't mess around."

Seeing his expression, Higashino Kohei had some bad premonitions.

Ten minutes later.

"Boom, boom...... Boom Boom Boom ...... Woo~~~"

"Okay, okay...... My delivery bike can't stand your toss. ”

Sweating profusely, Atsushi Mitsui shouted to stop Sousuke Araki's "performance".

Just now, this kid asked him for the key to the motorcycle, and immediately started burning tires, drifting in place, flicking his tail, and cocking his head in the parking lot, which attracted a lot of onlookers like a street show, and some people even applauded next to him.

"You've really recommended me a great guy......"

Looking at the burnt tires in distress, Atsushi Mitsui complained to Kohei Higashino.

Complaining is complaining, with his eyes, he can naturally see that Sosuke Araki's motorcycle skills are "professional-level", not to mention car delivery, I am afraid that it is impeccable to perform stunts.

"Just kidding, this guy is the veteran of the Immortal Bird Runaway Group."

Higashino Kohei's laughter is not authentic.

The job he recommended to Sousuke Araki was, to put it bluntly, a food delivery.

"Araki-kun, do you know what Japan's next rising industry is?"

Back in the office, Atsushi Mitsui, who was facing away from Sosuke Araki, in the backlight, began his speech.

"Could it be...... VR action movie plus matching dolls? ”

"Wrong! It is the mobile food delivery industry. If you think about it, with the acceleration of the pace of life, the demand for takeaway in urban areas is rising in a straight line, and we, as a child of destiny, came into being under the tide of this era. ”

"FOR TAKEOUT, I REMEMBER YOU CAN ORDER IT ON UBER......"

Higashino interrupted.

UBER ORIGINALLY ENTERED JAPAN AS A RIDE-HAILING APP, BUT AFTER A WATERLOO IN ITS PERFORMANCE, IT HAS A SECOND LIFE ON UBER EATS, A PIONEERING FOOD DELIVERY PLATFORM.

As a national food delivery software that claims to be "one bicycle can be delivered", anyone can receive orders on it and earn food delivery fees.

"Don't compare us to those old men who walk and deliver food, we are professionals!"

Hearing "UBER", Atsushi Mitsui immediately looked disdainful.

Recently, many white-collar workers, in order to ride a bicycle after work, also use the UBER software to deliver food by the way.

The most excessive thing is that many people over 70 years old, even in line with the principle of exercise, do not even ride bicycles, and start the road of "Buddhist takeaway" on the UBER platform on foot.

It is not uncommon to see an old man walking around the park leisurely carrying the food he wants to give to his guests.

This has also led to the slow delivery speed of the UBER platform, and two hours after placing the order, it is not uncommon for elderly delivery workers who are older than your grandfather to knock on your door tremblingly carrying the food that has already been cold.

In contrast, the delivery staff at the Deqian restaurant are more professional and efficient, and the delivery fee is naturally higher.

"Once you've filled out these forms, you'll officially be a proud member of the Dezenkan Ikebukuro Delivery Station! YOU CAN'T LOSE TO UBER'S HALF-BAKED WHITE-COLLAR WORKERS WHO RIDE BICYCLES AND THE OLD MEN WHO WALK AND DELIVER FOOD! ”

After introducing the working hours and treatment, Atsushi Mitsui did not hesitate to pull Sosuke Araki in to go through the entry procedures.

Sousuke Araki was also happy with the job.

The income is higher than that of convenience stores, and the time is free, and you only need to run the basic hours every day, and the rest of the time depends on everyone's mood and more work.

"Araki-kun, this is your employee ID number, just bind it to your mobile APP."

After filling out the entry paperwork, Atsushi Mitsui took out a number plate printed with "9527" and gave it to Sosuke Araki, and then began to teach him how to use the mobile app to take orders.

After learning to take orders, Atsushi Mitsui took him to the parking lot to choose a car.

When delivering food, you must wear the uniform of the Demaekan and use a motorcycle.

In addition to the reason for controlling fuel consumption, the company's motorcycle insurance amount is quite high.

"Eh, this old model of locomotive can't raise speed at all...... Can't you ride my Sengoku samurai? ”

Looking at the row of "old, weak, sick and disabled" locomotives, Sousuke Araki showed a disgusted expression.

"The company has regulations, and in order to save costs, it must only be distributed by locomotives with small displacement."

"Wait...... What's that? ”

Sousuke Araki glanced at a locomotive in the corner.

It was a heavy-duty locomotive with pure black paint, giant tires, and exaggerated, streamlined trim.

He couldn't take his eyes off the car at all.

"Oh, this one, it's the 'Devil Jet' locomotive that was recently customized for the anime tokusatsu drama 'Ghost Face Rider' collaboration event, and it's the only heavy locomotive in the store."

Atsushi Mitsui explained.

"Isn't there still a good product, and it looks quite handsome, can I use this one?"

Sosuke Araki rode on the bike and tried it, and immediately liked the car, feeling a little more ferocious than his Sengoku samurai.

"Are you sure? If you want to ride this 'Demon Spray', you can't do it...... But the company has some very troublesome and no money rules, others avoid it, once you choose, you can't go back. ”

Atsushi Mitsui confirmed to him.

"A real man has to ride the wildest horse, and that's the only thing I can't give into."

Handsomely pulling his short hair up, Sousuke Araki said.
