The snow outside the store was getting heavier and heavier, and less than ten seconds after returning from the restroom, Amuro had just sat down when a young man in a white clerk's uniform walked briskly with a tray.

"Charcoal-grilled chicken breast, salt-grilled chicken skewers, three bowls of pork chops, and the plum wine you ordered, the dishes are ready, please use them slowly!"

The color of the charcoal-grilled chicken breast made Ritsu Sasashima think it was his own work, and the black sauce wrapped in the meat looked a little unappetizing, but he dared to try it and still picked up a chopstick and put it in his mouth.

The chicken breast is still warm under the iron plate, the meat is very soft and tender, and the black sauce is unexpectedly delicious, slightly salty with a little spicy, which is a taste that has never been eaten before, no wonder it is the signature of this restaurant.

On the contrary, his favorite salt-grilled chicken skewers on weekdays seem mediocre, not that they are not delicious, but that there is no sense of surprise.

"This charcoal-grilled chicken breast is unexpectedly good, and the sauce tastes so special." Zero swallowed the chicken in his mouth, staring at the black chicken breast and studying it.

"yes, this shop is really good, I'll go back and research it and see if I can make a similar taste." Zhu Fu Jingguang is keen to study good food, and if he didn't join them as a police officer, he would probably open a restaurant hidden in the alley, from Japanese food to Chinese cuisine.

Ritsu Sasashima, who has given up on cooking, decides to become a foodie who eats quietly, unlike Shibuya, who can also learn to cook simple dishes through Keiko's guidance, and he can use cooking as a bioweapon in the kitchen.

I vaguely remember that in the winter of two years ago, when Zhufu Jingguang was sick and had a fever and stayed at his house, Sasashima made a pot of charred egg porridge... Fortunately, Zhufu, who was alone at home, was not so confused that he couldn't tell the color, otherwise he would have to be sent directly to the morgue if he drank it.

Putting away his thoughts, Ritsu Sasashima began to seriously deal with the bowl of pork chops in front of him.

The golden tonkatsu is topped with soft-boiled egg and the lightly browned shredded onion is covered with grainy white rice. When you take a bite of the pork chop, the fried clothes on the surface are still crispy, and the creaking sound makes people feel happy.

The rice is served with shredded onions stir-fried in sauce, and the saltiness is mixed with the sweetness of the fried onions, which is simply unstoppable, and you will subconsciously speed up your eating.

The spicy shallot white shreds in the side dish are the proud work of the store manager, pick up a little roll on the pork chops and send them into the mouth, and the spicy spicy shallot white shreds bring a slight pungency to achieve the effect of relieving greasy... Even if you eat another fried food, you won't feel tired.

The contents of the bowl gradually decrease until they are clean.

Zhu Fu Jingguang put down his chopsticks and poured himself half a glass of plum wine, and said with a smile: "Anyway, is it really good for us to eat pork chops?" I'm going to report to the police academy tomorrow, but today I'm here to eat pork chops. ”

"How can the pork chops at the police station be so delicious, and the pork chops have become soft when they are delivered from takeout. Besides, you can't think about the good, pork chops also represent victory! ”

Hearing the complaint, Zhu Fu smiled and said that he punished himself with a glass of wine, half a glass of plum wine was drunk, there is no pungent nature of liquor, the plum wine in this store is very mild, the entrance is slightly sweet and not greasy, and it is accompanied by the sour of green plums, if it is not too cold outside, he will definitely add some ice cubes inside.

Zhufu, who doesn't drink much on weekdays, can't help but drink himself one by one, Sasashima Ritsu has always been curious about what wine tastes like, he secretly reached out and wanted to pour himself a little, but was stopped by Tsugu Zero.

"Imps under the age of 20 can't drink alcohol, you wouldn't be unaware of the Prohibition of Underage Drinking Act, right? Need I help you consolidate this? ”

Ritsu Sasashima pouted, but just tasted it and it was fine.

With his head down, he sullenly drank warm barley tea, just like what Humali wrote, and he really wanted to grow up quickly... Let the people you care about don't treat him like a child, he can protect them.

Hey, they're all taller than them, but they don't have an advantage in age, the gap between adults and minors.

"Is it okay to take a sip?"

“！”

Hearing Zhu Fu say this, Sashima immediately raised his head, and his beautiful eyes flashed with a small light, like a cat who was so excited that he learned to wag his dog's tail after seeing the dried fish.

"No way!" Falling Gu Zero stretched out his hand to stop Jingguang from handing over the wine glass, and said solemnly: "Jing, once the rules are broken, there will be a possibility of a second appearance, and under the age of twenty, Ritsu can't drink." ”

A typical case of a strict father and a loving mother.

Ritsu Sasashima suddenly had such an idea in his mind, and he waved his hand and said, "I didn't want to taste it that much, so I'll go back while the snow has stopped when I'm almost done, right?" ”

"Wait until I'm done with it."

After paying at the counter, the temperature difference outside was so big that the moment the three of them walked out of the store, they all wrapped their coats tightly.

Zhu Fu even wore his velvet hat on Sasashima's head, and the fluorescent pink hat that was unusually dazzling in the dark night did not match his black dress at all.

Sasashima didn't understand why Momoshi would buy such a hat, whether it was fluorescent or pink, it was a color he wouldn't choose.

"Jing, don't you tell your brother about studying in the police academy?"

"I originally wanted to talk about it after I graduated, why don't you take a picture with me and I'll send him an email?"

Zhufu Jingguang has always longed for his own brother, although the two are in Tokyo and the other are in Nagano Prefecture, and they only reunite once a year, but the relationship between the brothers is still very deep.

I still remember that at the beginning of this year, Zhufu Jingguang took himself to meet his brother, and the similar phoenix eye was wearing a dark blue suit, except for the mustache on his face, he was really similar to Jingguang, but his expression was relatively serious.

What impressed Sasakishima the most was that his elder brother Takaaki Morufu would come up with a few old sayings from time to time.

"It's so fleshy in a group photo... Can I refuse to appear on camera? ”

"Agreed."

Zhu Fu Jingguang raised his mobile phone and said dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you want to appear on the camera with one hand?" I'm holding up my phone and filming you standing next to me. ”

"That's what you said."

"Huh?"

Ritsu Sasashima and Zero Tsuiya glanced at each other, and they pinched one of Jingguang's cheeks with one hand, and pulled them outward a little hard at the moment when the camera button was pressed.

Zhu Fu Jingguang rubbed his cheeks speechlessly, and the other two grabbed their phones to check the photos inside.

In the photo, Zhu Fu showed a panicked expression, and his slightly baby fat cheeks were grabbed by two hands, and his wrinkled eyebrows highlighted his helplessness.

It's this hand... The contrast between black and white is too obvious, right?

Ritsu Sasashima quickly operated on the phone, transferred this photo to his mobile phone, and then replaced the screensaver that teased the cat and was scratched by the cat.

Takaaki Mofu, who was on duty in Nagano Prefecture, knew that it was his younger brother who sent an email after hearing the tone from his mobile phone.

[Jingguang: Brother, I'm going to enter the police academy tomorrow!] With Zero and Alyu, you don't have to worry about having a good time lately, it's hard work! ]

Only in the email sent to his brother will not use emojis, Zhu Fu Jingguang is not good at spoiling his brother, he doesn't want his brother to worry about him, and he also hopes that he can become the pride of his brother.

Zhufu Gaoming, who has always been cold and intellectual, silently set this photo as his own screensaver.

"Yo, if you like your brother so much, you should go to Tokyo to find him more."

The man, who spoke in the Nagano dialect and spoke in a somewhat rude tone, stood behind Gao Ming and smiled, "Be careful that your brother thinks he is hated. ”

"Dare to help you, it's not good to snoop on your privacy."

"Ahh If you don't change your old-fashioned temperament, you will become an old man before you are forty years old, and be careful that you can't find a girlfriend. ”

"When you teach others, you should look around yourself."

"Huh?"

Zhufu Gaoming packed up his things and stood up, bypassing Yamato and walking outside. Yamato Dasuke rubbed his neck to show his confusion and let himself look around... Nothing special.

"Ah dare!"

"Oh, Yui, what's the matter?"

"Remind you that it's time to get off work, do you want to go together?"

"Oh, wait until I'm cleaned up."
