Chapter 11, Brother Long's first boss and the official start of his career
At 12 o'clock in the morning, the clock strikes, and in a corner of the city, the time belonging to a canteen begins. The menu is only a pork set, but you can order whatever you want. This is the boss's business policy. The special style and nostalgic taste attracted a lot of guests. Everyone drank wine, ate their favorite food, unloaded the fatigue of the day, talked about interesting things they encountered, or tasted sorrow alone. In the aroma of food, in the unique silence of the late night and the warmth of the cafeteria, a story full of human touch is told. There are sorrows and joys, which are secretly combined with the ups and downs of food. All the flavors of life are all in this Quartet canteen.
Like so many nights, the boss cleaned the cafeteria, hung up the sign, lit a cigarette and waited quietly for today's guests. Time has its feet, the years are silent, the guests come and go, and when the time is close to five o'clock, except for the owner, there is only Miss Marilyn who is lying on the table. The proprietor wanted to wake up Miss Marilyn and then close the door early to go home and sleep, but just as the two men and one small walked into the shop.
"Heh, this little bastard is back, what a rarity. The two people on the side are his friends? The boss's face thought quietly behind the curtain.
"Yo, boss." The Dragon of the Wooden Knife said with a little embarrassment, "This is my new wife. The other little child was his younger brother. ”
"Hey, you have a wife? Why didn't you remember to invite me to drink? The boss thought with a little dissatisfaction, but asked, "What do you want to eat?" The menu is only a pork set, but you can order whatever you want. I'll do as much as I can for you. ”
"The boss. I was brought up by you, and I know that you are retired, so I refuse to participate in all drinking banquets, so ......," said the dragon of the wooden knife with a slight twist. It's hard to imagine how peaceful it is for a muscular man who is nearly 1.9 meters tall to show that kind of expression.
"Guest, what would you like to eat?" The boss saw that the dragon of the wooden knife had something to say, and he didn't answer it. Since I'm here to do something, let's follow the rules.
The dragon of the wooden knife saw that the boss had guessed that he had something to ask for, but insisted on cutting it first, and had no choice but to start a shameful performance in front of his wife and brother-in-law.
"Trouble, fish ball thick noodles."
"No rough noodles."
"Really? Let's have a bowl of fish balls and pho. ”
"There are no fish balls."
"Really? The tripe noodles are thick. ”
"No rough noodles."
"Then I want fish ball oil noodles."
"There are no fish balls."
"Why is there nothing? Then let's ask for cuttlefish balls. ”
"No rough noodles."
"Sold out again? Excuse me to have a bowl of fish ball ramen. ”
"There are no fish balls."
......
After the incision of a string of ghost animals, the boss was calm, the Guan Gu brothers and sisters laughed so much that they couldn't straighten their waists, and Ryunosuke's face was full of embarrassment. Although it was embarrassing, the matter of promising the brother-in-law still had to be done. He handed over a file to his boss, saying that he needed the boss to use his previous connections to help him get a fake identity, the kind that could pass the entrance inspection of the University of Tokyo, and the price was negotiable. The boss took the file and said that he would come back to get things in two days, he had already retired, and it would be good to have this kind of thing in the future and go directly to Aaron. Guan Gu really didn't know if this guy named Ah Long had anything to do with the Dragon of the Wooden Knife, but he had already guessed the identity of the boss. The retired senior cadres of the Yamaguchi-gumi are really powerful, and it is really amazing that they can make a fake identity recognized by the government by casually touching their previous relationships.
The boss was busy in the workshop, and actually served a bowl of fish ball ramen to the dragon of the wooden knife, a potato salad for Sekiya Kagura, a takoyaki for Sekiya, and then brought himself a bowl of chazuke that he had made too much at night, and drank it with Ryunosuke and his wife with a bottle of sake and three cups. Knowing that Ryunosuke and his group of younger brothers had all been bearded and full-shadowed, and none of them had less arms and legs to "go ashore" smoothly, the boss drank very happily. When he knew that Ryunosuke's wife was a top student of the prestigious Todai, the boss was even happier, and he frequently clinked glasses with Kagura, and the gratitude in his eyes was overflowing. The boss, who is clumsy in his tongue and is better at using knives, really doesn't know how to express it, so he took out an old jewelry box from the innermost part of the drawer and stuffed it into Kagura's hand, and then knocked Ryunosuke again, back and forth, asking him to be a good husband Yunyun. From the strength of the slap on Ryunosuke's shoulder, Sekiya could fully feel that this fierce man who was only afraid of the Yamaguchi-gumi's double-flower red stick back then.
The two adult men who knew each other had a hot conversation, and the wine was also borrowed from bottle to bottle, and they were about to get drunk. Also drank a lot, the charming and flushed "legal Lori" took out the flat glasses and yellow wig set that Guan Gu had just used during the day yesterday from his handbag, and put them on Guan Gu's magical face, and then said to his younger brother, who was no longer much shorter than himself: "Magic, you have to remember, you have to play Go, it's no problem to draw comics, this is the common dream of you, Uncle Kogoro, and Sawei." But in front of your father, mother, and grandfather, you will always be you, and the one who loves Sekiya cuisine is magical. When you want to draw manga or play Go, you wear these, and when you put them on, you will be Fujiwara Kogoro. Your brother-in-law and I will cover for you. You can't make your family sad like Uncle Kogoro, get it? ”
"Yes, my sister."
"Yes, niece."
"Yes, Kagura-sama."
One person and two souls said in unison. Theoretically, Sekiya Kagura can only hear Sekiya's magical voice and see Sekiya Miraculous alone, but this magical "legal Lori" nodded three times at the three sides as if she had seen them all, and then fell headlong on the bar, it turned out to be drunk.
"Oh, it's amazing, the boss's food is delicious, isn't it?" Kagura, drunk, whispered to her brother.
Looking up at the Wooden Knife Dragon and the boss, who had drunk more enthusiastically with Miss Marilyn who had woken up, Sekiya responded with a smile, "Yes, the boss's food has a homely taste. ”
......
Two days later, the full set of identification arrived.
Fujiwara Kogoro, born in Tokyo on January 4, 1988 (Showa 63), is now 12 years old, a close disciple of manga artist Sekiya Kogoro, and was appointed by him to continue to complete his posthumous work "Samurai Windward Wind" and inherit his pen name Sky no Star. Do you mean that you sent us all the drawings that were close to a year ago? ”
"Whew. This is a full set of supporting materials and the teacher's private seal. and recent sketches. The teacher did not have any children, so the inheritance was also transferred to my name in the form of a bequest. I also have the account and password for your club to send the teacher's manuscript fee. This time, I mainly wanted to see if I could continue to sign a contract with your company. Continue in the name of the Sky Star. ”
"Whew. Of course, we also want to keep the potential of "Samurai Facing the Wind". This year's sketches did not appear inconsistent with the painting style, or the plot derailed, although you are young, but the painting skills are really extraordinary. Mr. Sora has always been wearing a doll costume to attend the book signing, and he has never shown his face, so it should be no problem to continue to create under the name of Sky Star. We will also take some time to confirm the authenticity of the materials you provide, and if there are no problems, I think we can still go ahead and sign the contract. ”
"Whew. If so, great. It's really the same as what the teacher said, and the editor Fujita is a respectable woman with a 36D broad mind. ”
Fujita's editor, a female editor who has never described her appearance in this book, had a seductive flush on her face, took a sip, and said, "How dare that dead ghost say anything outside!" Hey, dead imp, you look a lot like that bastard of Kogoro Sekiya? Are you sure you're not the one who got the big carrot in junior high school or high school? ”
"Editor, you're overthinking. Please also complete the verification of the materials as soon as possible, I believe that our cooperation will be a long time. ”
"In principle, I agree with what you say, so do you want to go to dinner with your companions in the club at noon?"
"Thank you for your kindness, there will be registration for Go Academy students in the afternoon. I won't bother. ”
......
After absorbing the chain fragments and growing his magic power, Guan Gu's height has also improved greatly, and he really doesn't look like a child who has just been seven years old. Although under the supernatural influence of the red eyeballs, there is nothing absolutely strange about Guan Gu and his wife, but no one believes that Guan Gu is a thin twelve-year-old child from the outsider's point of view. After having Uncle Kogoro and Sawei two holding spirits, he naturally inherited the dreams of the two to fulfill. Fortunately, my brother-in-law and generous and decent sister who have the same experience are very supportive, so I have the fake identity of "Fujiwara Kogoro", which can be called "seamless". Kenjiro and his wife were called by their grandfather to return to the Yokohama main store, and Yamiyama was handed over to the newlywed Ryunosuke and his wife to take care of. Guan Gu also excused himself not to transfer schools frequently, so he asked his parents to stay in Yejian Mountain. With a fake identity that is five years older, coupled with the cover of his sister and brother-in-law, Guan Gu feels like a fish in water for the first time in his life.
In January in Tokyo, the climate is cold, and there are two psychic teenagers with spirits who are good at winning in advance, and they have no scruples about starting a matchless on this road.
"Zuo Wei, the road of professional chess players, let's start with the academy students!"
"Hey!"
