Chapter Twenty-Three: Ramen Chef Uesugi Goshi

This is an old town, lined with old-fashioned Japanese houses with sycamore and cherry trees in front of them.

At this time, the branches are luxuriant, but they are still dilapidated, and it seems that they have not been taken care of for a long time.

It's not that no one is interested in this land, someone once wanted to spend $200 million to buy the land, but they couldn't find the owner of the land, so they had to give up.

"Master Yue, wait a minute." Aso shouted as he stood at the intersection.

"Oh, that's true." The ramen chef glanced up, but his subordinates didn't stop, "It's closed today, come early next time." ”

"Huh?" Aso was stunned, "But...... But I specially brought a friend to eat, Master Yue, can you wait a minute? ”

Just as she was negotiating with the ramen master, Lu Mingfei took Eri Uesugi's hand and walked in front of the rickshaw.

This kind of trolley is called "ラーパンya trolley" in Japan, and it is designed to sell ramen noodles in the streets and alleys, and it is very distinctive.

The ramen chef looks quite old, with his white hair combed neatly parted, wearing a white linen overalls and a black towel tied to his forehead, making him look as if he has dealt with ramen all his life.

But Lu Mingfei knew that this old man didn't look as simple as it seemed.

Hidden underneath his large wooden box cart were several Japanese-style knives, and there were even inscriptions on them, which did not look like simple goods.

In addition, Lu Mingfei could feel a power similar to Eri Yi from him, and it seemed that the other party was also a half-blood.

His age is impossible to estimate, although Lu Mingfei has already explored the lines of each of his bones, but due to the lack of samples, it is impossible to accurately judge.

I don't know why such a half-breed would sell ramen here.

As long as he is still a ramen chef, Lu Mingfei is just a diner.

After all, I came here just to accompany my sister to dinner.

"I just can't say no." Uesugi reluctantly refused, "Really, I really have something very important, and today is Saturday." ”

It's Saturday, and the owner of the izakaya is still waiting for him.

How can a little kid like Aso really be as important as the boss lady.

Anyway, he sells ramen just to pass the time.

Aso was really embarrassed, and along the way she kept bragging about how delicious Master Yue's ramen was, and now how embarrassed and guilty she is.

Talking doesn't count, and I'm embarrassed to say what kind of friends?

"Miss Zhen, why don't you forget it?" Seeing that she was a little overwhelmed, Eri Uesugi suggested softly.

"Yes, Miss Zhen, since Master Yue is a little busy, let him go first." Lu Mingfei Dao.

Uesugi couldn't help but look at Lu Mingfei and Uesugi Eri twice, and felt that the two of them were very good, they didn't put on a rich family's shelf, and pretended to be forced in front of him with money.

"Yes, really, I'm really in a hurry today, or you will come back tomorrow morning." Uesugi persuciated.

Aso really wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lu Mingfei: "Since Master Yue is so familiar with you, why don't we make ramen ourselves." The ingredients are all ready-made, let's cook them ourselves. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Uesugi Yue's face changed slightly.

There were a few famous knives under the car, and he couldn't take them out and put them in the house.

But looking at Lu Mingfei's meaning, he had no reason to refuse at all.

Damn it!

I'm sorry, Mayuko, I'm going late today.

"No, no, you young people always think that ramen is just boiled casually, it's just arrogant!" Uesugi pretended to be angry, and said in an old-fashioned manner, "Forget it, I'll do it." ”

"Thank you so much, Master Yue." Aso quickly thanked him.

"Something to eat?" Since he decided to sell ramen first, Uesugi quickly got into the groove and was warmly entertained.

"I want a bowl of ramen and add this, this, this, this, this, this, and this!"

As soon as the three of them sat down, Eri Uesugi couldn't help but ask for all the ingredients on the ingredient list.

"I'm the same."

Lu Mingfei also felt that each one was worth trying.

"Are you sure?"

Even though I've been making ramen for half a century, it's the first time I've met a customer who eats a roadside stall and has to add all the ingredients.

"Of course."

Of course, Eri Uesugi looked at her, and Lu Mingfei also nodded.

Aso looked at them with some surprise and finally ordered a bowl of ramen without adding anything.

However, Uesugi still added two pieces of beef and an egg to her when she was on top.

"Master Yue......" Aso really wanted to refuse, anyway, if you haven't eaten it yet, these ingredients can actually be put back.

"It's free." Uesugi waved his hand, "Finish eating early and go back early, it's not necessarily safe here at night." ”

"Hmm."

Aso looked at the ramen and swallowed his saliva, but in the end he didn't refuse.

Such a bowl of ramen, she is usually absolutely reluctant to eat.

"It's okay, we're in for a treat today." Lu Mingfei smiled and treated, "Thank you Miss Zhen for bringing us to such a delicious ramen." ”

"Uh-huh." Eri took a small bite of the ramen, vaguely agreeing.

"Don't eat the ramen too quickly, you won't be able to taste it." Uesugi said casually as he drank sake.

He poured himself a glass of sake, and asked Lu Mingfei with his eyes, and Lu Mingfei shook his head.

Eri Uesugi ate the noodles a little slower, and then added two more servings of beef.

The barbecued pork, beef, and eggs here are actually quite ordinary, and Uesugi doesn't quite understand how this beautiful kid eats so happily.

Of course, I don't understand why her stomach is so big.

The three of them ate for half an hour, and finally put down the dishes and chopsticks with satisfaction.

"For the sake of real face, I will receive 3,000 yen."

Uesugi Yue took the bill and said that since it was a rich kid's treat, he didn't need to be polite.

This price is very expensive in a stall like his, but who let the three of them add so many ingredients.

Lu Mingfei took out his credit card, and Uesugi shook his head.

"You can't swipe your card, you can go to the neighborhood and pick up money. However, your card seems to be foreign, and you may not be able to withdraw money here. ”

"Huh?" Lu Mingfei looked at the card and was stunned, he really didn't pay attention to this, and turned to Eriyi, "Does Eriyi bring any money?" ”

"Eri doesn't have any." She never paid for her meals, maybe her brother did, but she didn't know anyway.

Uesugi looked at the two men with suspicion, and then looked at Aso, who had a tangled expression.

"You ......," he said half-jokingly, as if subconsciously muttering, "it's not going to make you pay the bill, is it?" I said I was going to have a treat......"

"Master Yue, it's not what you think." Aso, who was originally going to pay for it himself, quickly explained, "Mr. Lu and Miss Eri are not like that. ”

"Wait a minute." Eri Uesugi shouted, then pulled out a stack of checks from her sleeve, "I have money, this can be exchanged directly at the bank." ”

With that, she signed a check for 3,000 yen and handed it to Uesugi Koshi.

Uesugi looked at the family crest of the Snake Eight family on the check, his pupils shrunk, and he hesitated.

"Really, you're not to the point where you're messing with the underworld, are you?"
