Chapter 25 Concessions
This is an izakaya built with Japanese investment from the town guard.
Since the canteen in the town guard is controlled by London, it is easy to get there, and it is also a small Japanese canteen.
The entire store occupies a small area, but it is not small.
Outside the door hangs a lantern with the words Izakaya, emitting a hazy orange glow.
The dark wood panels of the store are paved with solid wood panels, and display paintings, Japanese decorations, and special food display boards are hung above, and the bright red hue is more eye-catching, and the hanging wall lamps illuminate the entire space, giving people a warm and natural glow, giving people a homely feeling. The small bar of solid wood is in front, and there are no guests at this time, and naturally there is no hospitality.
At the moment, it is located in the corner of the izakaya, and there are three people sitting around the window with tatami mats and a low table.
After practicing archery in the afternoon, I just practiced archery, not a strenuous activity, only a little sweat wet my hair, I haven't taken a shower and changed my clothes, and I am still wearing a bow uniform. The girl with short light chestnut hair just covering her ears and picturesque eyebrows is Zuizuru.
If there are outsiders, then you must pay a little attention to the image. There are people all around, so there's no need to pretend. Besides, her personality originally belonged to the more casual category.
At this time, Zuihe took chopsticks and grabbed a fried shrimp tempura, dipped some sauce and sent it to his mouth. Just before it was delivered to the mouth, looking at the fried dough showing disgust, the white shell teeth bit the jacket and spit it out, leaving only a little bit of dough wrapped in fried shrimp, and now I was satisfied.
Sitting on the left hand side is my sister Shozuru, and sitting opposite is my friend Mutsu, one of the proprietress of this Izakaya. Zuizuru noticed that Mutsu had been staring at the window and the chopsticks hadn't moved for a long time, so she asked, "Mutsu, what are you looking at, what is there to see?" ”
She said as she looked out, isn't the scenery of the town guard mansion like that, haven't you seen enough for so many years?
"The Admiral is there." Mutsu replied.
In fact, there is no need for Mutsu to say, Zuizuru himself saw that in the corner of the square, the admiral in civilian clothes and the three young ships of the town guard were standing in front of the notice board, not knowing what they were looking at.
Unlike his sister's sassy short hair, Xianghe has long hair that is draped behind him like a waterfall. When she heard that the Admiral was outside, she looked out the window curiously. As a ship's mother, she cares about the admiral, and as a married ship, she cares about her husband.
Ruihe looked at her sister's performance, and she teased: "If my sister wants to be a commander so much, go out and talk." ”
Mutsu glanced at Zuizuru, put his hands on the low table, crossed his fingers to support his chin, and said, "Zuizuru, you don't want to be a commander?" ”
"I don't want to." Zuihe asked, "Do you want to?" ”
"Well, I think." Mutsu generously admitted her thoughts, and she looked out the window and said strangely, "Didn't the group say that the Admiral is in Lexington?" If it was Lexington, I thought I wouldn't have a chance, how could I be here? "She's already getting a little moved.
"Who knows why, it's incredible that Lexington would let go...... Anyway, here now...... That's enough. Zuizuru looked at Mutsu, and Mutsunoku's face couldn't hide the "eagerness" to try, "Do you really want to talk?" ”
"Hmm."
"Then go, if you miss it, you won't have a chance, you can't miss the opportunity."
"You're not going?"
"I'm not going, I don't like that guy."
As an older sister, Xianghe certainly knows. My sister wears a ring all day. Today, when the Admiral appeared in the Town Guard's Mansion, he held his mobile phone all day long just to keep abreast of the Admiral's various situations. She smiled and said, "I think you like it." ”
"I don't like it, I don't like it." Zuihe said impatiently, grabbed the chopsticks again and grabbed another fried shrimp tempura, dipped it in some sauce, and without specifically tearing off the dough, he put it directly into his mouth, making a "click" sound as if to say, I am only interested in eating, "Whoever of you wants to talk to." ”
"Ruihe, are you really not going? If you don't go, I'll go. Mutsu said.
"Go, go, hurry up and ask me what I'm doing." If it weren't for Mutsu sitting across from her, it would have looked like Zuizuru would have wanted to push her.
"Then I'll go." Mutsu was not polite, she took off the hairpin and put down her long hair, and then re-curled it. Pulling the collar to make the ditch a little more exposed, something no man could refuse. Rubbing your fingers on your lips, "Did you bring a makeup case?" Lipstick, lipstick? Lend me a favor. ”
"Nope." Zuihe said, "It's okay, it's already okay, it's beautiful enough...... The collar could be pulled down a little more to show a little more...... Don't wear clothes at all...... If you don't go, they might just leave, and it won't be your turn then. ”
"yes, I'm going to hurry." Mutsu finally straightened his bangs, pinned a few strands of loose hair behind his ears, and raised his hand to make an "OK" finger, "I wish me success." ”
"I wish you success." Zuihe said, bowing his head and revealing a bitter smile after speaking, and no one noticed.
Shozuru watched the back of Mutsu leave disappear into the izakaya, leaving only the curtain at the door shaking, and she said, "Is it really okay to let Mutsu go?" Zuizuru. ”
"What could it be?" Ruihe pinched the chopsticks, and the chopsticks shook and swayed, pointing to the appearance of the country.
"But you've always liked the Admiral."
"I'll admit, I used to like him." "That's the old days, you see what he's doing now...... Sister, don't you like the Admiral, why don't you talk to you, and let the sassy hooves of Mutsu go. ”
"I'm different from you." "I just have to look at the Admiral from afar...... Send him food when he is hungry, give him clothes when he is cold, and prepare food every day to wait for him to come home from work. Playing with the others, shopping, playing games, I'm not quite used to that one. If you go to the hot springs together, you can do it. ”
"Mrs. Xianghe is not too traditional and old-fashioned." Zuihe said.
Shozuru smiled noncommittally, she kept looking out the window and said, "Mutsu has passed." ”
"I see it." Zuizuru picked up the sushi directly with his hands.
"They seem to be having a good time." Shotsuru said, "Mutsu is really good at talking. If it were me, it would definitely be inferior to her. ”
"Sassy hooves." Zuihe lowered his head, "Leave her alone, that...... The food is going to be cold, let's eat it quickly. ”
"Ha, that is gone, let's eat her food. When she returned, there was nothing. Zuizuru looked around, "Speaking of which, where did Nagato go today?" ”
Xianghe looked at his sister with a look of pity.
