Tokyo's Chinatown, located in Nishi-Ikebukuro in Toshima Ward, is a modest street with a barely tall archway hanging from the street with a sign reading "Chinatown" in traditional Chinese characters.

It's not the first time Takuya Aramura has been here, and to be honest, it's not as good as the Chinatown in those places in the United States, because there isn't much Chinese style except for the archway at the corner of the street.

However, the shops here are relatively rich, all kinds of Chinese restaurants, souvenir shops, and Chinese medicine stores, although it is still debatable whether the boss behind it is Chinese.

Takuya Aramura didn't go to eat immediately after coming here, but selectively left a little conscience, shopping first, and eating together when Fujiwara Xun came.

The four of them arrived at a souvenir shop, where Rino Tanaka took a small blue and white porcelain bowl and looked at it carefully, while Kaede Motodo and Hikaru Akao were enthusiastic about the various trinkets in the shop.

Takuya Aramura stood in front of a calligraphy and painting and looked at it, this is a copy of Mr. Xu Beihong's "Running Horse", it can be seen that the copyist's painting skills are very good, and the copy is very similar.

It's just that the "genuine" label on it and the price of 50,000 yen made him speechless for a while, and it is estimated that this thing can only deceive the Japanese who want to be elegant and unwilling to spend a lot of money...

Who doesn't know this painting... And the price of 50,000 yen is really a bit outrageous, and I can't buy a calligraphy and painting painted by an unknown painter in the Qing Dynasty with this money...

"Takuya Takuya!" Tanaka Rino walked over with a Chinese knot in her hand and shook it in front of him, "This is so beautiful, so exquisite!" ”

Takuya Aramura took it and took a look, a very ordinary auspicious knot, this thing can be seen everywhere in Huaguo.

He casually commented: "It's okay." ”

"And it's only 500 yen! So cheap! Rino Tanaka pointed to the price tag under the side shelf.

"..."Aramura Takuya was also a little speechless, this thing can be bought for ten yuan on a certain treasure in Huaguo...

Sure enough, souvenir shops like this are used to trap Japanese people...

The next hour was spent in the fuss of the three girls, and Takuya Aramura finally received a call from Fujiwara Xun.

"Hello?"

"Feed the fart! I'm here in the archway, you kid hurry up and pick me up! ”

"Oh."

Takuya Aramura put his phone back in his pocket, and walked slowly to the bottom of the archway with the three girls, and then saw Fujiwara Xun leaning on the pillar of the archway with an indifferent face.

"Fujiwara-san, you're here in time!" Rino Tanaka, who had just finished shopping the whole street, was in a high mood and came to Fujiwara Xun with two juniors, "It just so happens that we are all hungry!" ”

"Hehe..."Fujiwara suppressed the speechlessness in his heart and smiled without emotion.

Takuya Aramura was holding a bottle of Laoshan Coke that he bought from a grocery store and beckoned to him, "Fujiwara-san, let's go eat." ”

Then I drank a Coke while walking to a restaurant.

Fujiwara resisted the urge to curse and followed with the three girls.

When he arrived at the restaurant, Takuya Aramura asked the waiter for a bowl of fried rice balls, and then looked at the other four people, "Do you want to eat Lantern Festival or rice balls?" ”

"Huh?" Tanaka Rino scratched her head in confusion, "Takuya, didn't you say that today is the Lantern Festival?" Why do you want to eat fried rice balls? ”

Takuya Aramura really can't say this question, because he was a southerner in his previous life, and he only ate rice balls, and he basically only saw it but never ate it.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Tanaka Rino asked again: "What's the difference between these two, which one is more delicious?" ”

"It depends on the individual." Takushi Aramura is also a person who respects the tastes of others, and he did not criticize the Lantern Festival, "The appearance of the rice balls is relatively dry, the appearance of the Lantern Festival is relatively smooth, and the filling inside is not the same..."

After some popular science by Takuya Aramura, Tanaka Rino nodded thoughtfully, and then waved his little hand and said domineeringly: "Lantern Festival, Tangyuan, I want them all!" ”

Takuya Aramura is not surprised, and she does not doubt that she will waste food, after all, Rino Tanaka is a person who can eat all three bento servings in one meal.

Later, Fujiwara Xun asked for the same fried rice balls as him, and Motodo Kaede and Akao Hikaru each asked for rice balls and Lantern Festival, saying that they could be eaten instead.

When it was time to settle the bill, Fujiwara Xun leaned back in his chair and stared at Takuya Aramura with his head tilted, "Aramura-kun, you caused me to stand at the intersection for an hour, how about this meal, you should treat you, right?" ”

Takuya Aramura bit off the last rice ball, chewed it carefully in his mouth, swallowed it into his stomach, and said, "It's okay for me to have a treat, but I need to correct a little." ”

"What?"

"You're standing guard at the intersection because you're speeding, and it has nothing to do with me."

"Nonsense! Obviously, if you come to stand with me, you can leave in half an hour! ”

"It's Fujiwara-san you, who's talking nonsense."

"Bastard boy, you..."

…

In the evening, Takuya Aramura came to the izakaya where the office held a New Year's reception last time, and came to participate in the welcome reception.

President Matsuda sat on the chief seat and gave a workplace PUA to the newcomers present, drank two glasses of wine and left, and the rest of the time was for the newcomers to toast the senior management and seniors of the firm one by one under the leadership of their direct seniors.

Takuya Aramura also brought Kaede Motodo and Hikaru Akao to introduce them to those who knew better.

The first is his direct predecessor Miyuki Sawasawa, who happened to be sitting with Saori Hayami, which also saved him from walking more.

He took two glasses of wine and handed them to the two seniors, "Zecheng senior, early see senior, these are the two juniors I just received today, Akawei Hikaru and Bendu Kaede." ”

Then he handed two more glasses of wine to the two juniors, "Akao, Mototo, this Sawanari Miyuki senior, is my direct senior, and this is Saori Hayami, that is, one of the interviewers at the last interview." ”

Hikaru Akao and Motodo Kaede held the wine in both hands, poured it into their mouths, their facial features immediately squeezed together, and then bowed deeply, "Zecheng senior!" See the seniors early, please advise! ”

Miyuki Sawanari and Saori Hayami glanced at each other with a smile, and also drank the wine, "Akao-chan, Honto-chan, come on!" But don't learn from your predecessors in the deserted village~"

Saori covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Yes, you have to work hard!" Don't be like Aramura-kun, who lies in the practice room and sleeps every day. ”

Akao Hikaru and Motodo Kaede didn't know what to do for a while, so agree, for fear of offending Takuya Aramura, and if they don't agree, they are afraid of offending these two seniors.

In the end, after a fierce ideological struggle, they decided to support Takuya Aramura, after all, they were their direct predecessors.

"No, no, no, seniors are good! Today, he also invited us to Chinatown for rice balls! ”

"Yo~" Miyuki Sawacheng covered her mouth as if she had heard something incredible, "Aramura-kun, it's really different to be a senior~ I've become diligent~"

Takuya Aramura glanced at her and decided to ignore it.

"Obviously, you haven't invited me, a senior, to dinner..."Miyuki Zecheng was full of acting skills, looking pitiful, "Sure enough?" Aramura-kun is ready to fly solo, and he no longer needs me as a senior..."

Saori also came over to join in the fun, and she gently patted Miyuki Sawasaki's shoulder, "Aramura-kun, you are really a man without conscience." ”

Takuya Aramura rubbed his eyebrows, and then began to walk to the next table with the two juniors, "This is not a practice room, nor is it a recording studio. ”

Bento Kaede and Hikaru Akao bowed to the two seniors before leaving, "Zecheng senior, see seniors early, goodbye!" ”

"Uh-huh~" Miyuki Sawanari returned to normal, winked at them, and waved goodbye, "Goodbye~"
