After the store manager finished dividing it, everyone hugged it, brought the plates back to the store, and arranged them neatly on the table.

The manager and the assistant chef cleaned up and sat down at the table.

After taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat, the store manager said, "Let's go!" ”

As soon as the people who couldn't wait heard this, like a sprinter hearing the starting pistol, they stretched out their chopsticks to the golden barbecue in front of them with a whoosh.

Aoyagi picked up a piece of pork neck and took a bite of it, it was full of elasticity and tender juice. The deep combination of sauce and meat makes every drop of gravy overflowing during every chew with a rich sauce aroma and a sense of satisfaction.

Squinting slightly, Aoyagi carefully felt the taste of the barbecue, and was a little reluctant to swallow it.

Nishida patted him on the shoulder and pointed to the plate: "Hayakawa-kun, if you don't eat quickly, you won't be able to eat much." ”

Aoyagi saw that a group of people were gobbling up the meat, rushing to eat the meat, and they were so good at chewing that some plates were obviously empty. Frightened, he also sped up eating meat.

By the time the meat on the table was almost halfway eaten, people slowed down their eating.

Makoto Masaka, the assistant chef, stopped his chopsticks and shouted, "How can there be no wine for such a good barbecue?" He looked at the store manager expectantly, "Store manager, can I get some sake to drink?" ”

Amamiya Muhe glanced at Masaoka Makoto with some dissatisfaction: "Masaoka-san, why do you always think about drinking?" Aoyagi is still here, don't take the children with you. ”

"Haha," Masaoka Makoto touched the back of his head a little embarrassed, "Amamiya-san, I'm just drinking some alcohol, it doesn't affect Hayakawa-kun." For me, if I don't have the sake to accompany me, I can't enjoy the barbecue perfectly. ”

Amamiya wanted to say something, but he fell behind the store manager, "Today is a celebration of new members, you can drink some wine in moderation." As for Hayakawa-kun and others who don't drink, they drink juice. Nishida-san and Amamiya-san, please take a few people to squeeze the juice. ”

Nishida Feng counted the number of people who didn't drink, and took a few people to squeeze juice.

The manager got up, walked to the shelf where the sake was kept, and returned with a small pot of sake, Masaoka Makoto stepped forward, took the jug, and diligently poured the sake for everyone.

After being busy for a while, Nishida Feng and the others squeezed the juice and sat down again.

The manager raised his glass and said, "Today we celebrate our new member, Aoyagi Hayakawa, for joining our yakiniku restaurant. Let's eat and drink to your heart's content tonight. ”

Everyone raised their glasses to congratulate them, and then drank the sweet sake (or juice) in their glasses. For a while, the atmosphere of the banquet became more lively, and people constantly toasted each other (juice), staggered with each other, said some words of blessing, and laughed from time to time.

There was not enough wine in the middle of the banquet, so the store manager added two more pots, and Nishida and the others also squeezed a few more juices.

I don't know how long it took, but as the alcohol got stronger, those who drank too much gradually quieted down, and the atmosphere slowly became cold.

The store manager saw that it was not too early, and said, "It's late, you should go back and rest." That's all for today. ”

Everyone began to clean up the messy tables and clean up the kitchen waste. A group of people worked together and cleaned up in a short time.

Standing in front of the store, he locked the door, and the store manager said, "If you are close to each other, go back together, and send the children and girls back first." If you drink too much, take care of it. Be careful on the road and see you tomorrow. ”

"See you tomorrow!"

In twos and threes, everyone went home separately.

…………

It's been more than two months since I officially started working at the barbecue restaurant. It's mid-August, and it's hot.

For more than three months, Aoyagi usually works out in the morning, rests in the afternoon, and works at a barbecue restaurant in the evening.

It seems that in order to take care of Aoyagi, the yakiniku restaurant now eats first at 5 p.m. before working, and of course the lunch time is also brought forward accordingly.

The meals provided by the yakiniku restaurant are very nutritious, and with the financial resources, Aoyagi also spends more money on food, and with continuous exercise, Aoyagi's physical fitness has steadily improved. And because I am a child, my body flexibility has improved faster, and now it is enough to maintain the status quo. If you continue to improve your flexibility, it will make your muscles loose and make you more susceptible to injury.

After making a wooden target and throwing a wooden kunai at it for two hours in a row, Aoyagi succeeded in manifesting a target in the mental space.

I wasn't going to start practicing shuriken throwing and kunai right away. But after learning about exercise and practicing the exercises that can be used now, Aoyagi doesn't know what to do in the mental space.

Now that there is a target in the space, Aoyagi tries to practice throwing kunai and shuriken in the mental space to develop his senses. In the beginning, progress was slow and difficult because there was no one to teach.

At the same time, because he was worried that he had developed the wrong throwing habit, after thinking about it again, he cheekily went to consult the owner of the ninja shop, got his guidance, and learned the correct way to throw. Especially after understanding and learning a few small details and skills that are inconspicuous but quite important, the accuracy and strength of the throwing have improved. After hard work, Aoyagi can now at least hit nine out of ten when he concentrates on throwing.

Now that he has mastered the basic throwing methods of shuriken and kunai, all he needs is to continue practicing, develop his senses, strive to achieve ten shots, and learn how to throw shuriken and kunai in sports.

The success of this practice means that Aoyagi's assumptions about space are likely to be correct. Now he is looking forward to getting some disciplined martial arts techniques, unlocking martial arts-related materials, and starting to practice physical arts.

Today happened to be the summer festival, so the yakiniku restaurant had a day off, and Aoyagi also seized the time to practice all day, and it didn't end until sunset.

Aoyagi was a little surprised when he walked into the somewhat deserted ramen shop, but it was not surprising to think that today was a summer festival.

Perhaps most of us have eaten well in advance and are at home ready for tonight's celebration.

Sitting in his seat, Aoyagi said to Uncle Ichiraku, "Uncle, let's have a bowl of tonkotsu ramen." ”

"Okay, please wait~"

After waiting for a while, Aoyagi looked at the ramen that was served, and was very surprised.

The large bowl of ramen noodles is full of side dishes, and you can barely see the noodles underneath. Just a cursory glance, you can already find golden fried pork chops, brown pork meat, white soft-boiled eggs wrapped in bright yellow, white fish plates with pink circles, green onions, black fungus silk and other things, I don't know what else is under these surface ingredients.

Pointing to the ramen, Aoyagi said, "Uncle Ichiraku, I didn't order this." ”

Uncle Yile smiled, "Hahaha, Aoyagi, you're very lucky." This happens to be the 100,000th ramen sold at our restaurant, and I decided to give this ramen to customers yesterday, but I didn't expect it to be you. Take your time and enjoy this summer festival luxury ramen. ”

"Oooh! Good luck today, thank you uncle! I got started. ”
