After watching the movie, the two walked out of the cinema. After watching the movie, the two walked out of the cinema.

"It's getting late. Let's go back after finishing dinner." Tangze suggested with a smile.

"Okay, but I'm not too hungry." Ayako looked at Karasawa and smiled: "Don't order so many dishes then, I won't be able to eat them."

"Then let's go find a snack street and pick out what we want to eat while walking." Tang Ze suggested after thinking about it.

"If that's the case, then there is a place I want to go to." Ayako nodded when she heard this, her face full of nostalgia, "I haven't been there for a long time since college, I miss it so much."

It's obvious that Ayako really likes it there. The two sisters are very similar in this regard. They don't have any pretensions to being rich, and they never feel that they are superior to others.

This is also what Karasawa likes about Ayako very much, otherwise Karasawa would not be with her even if she was a rich lady.

He is still a loser. Is he proud?

Ahem, bring the topic back.

Now that Ayako has somewhere she wants to go, she naturally leaves as soon as she wants.

With Ayako leading the way, the two took the subway and quickly arrived in Shinjuku area, and this was their destination today.

Located near the Ome Street at the west exit of Shinjuku Station, there is a place called "Mode Yokocho".

The so-called "Yokocho" actually means alley and alley.

But in this alley, there are large and small izakaya shops, as well as all kinds of snacks, full of market atmosphere.

It can be said that this place has a sense of age, and when you step into the alley, you feel like you have returned to the Showa period in the 1960s.

This is the filming location for the prototype of the famous "Late Night Diner" in later generations.

Stepping into the alley, you can feel that this place is incompatible with the cold Tokyo, and the strong smell of fireworks makes you feel like you have arrived in another place.

People were coming and going, and groups of people walked into the restaurant, which was very lively.

Under the guidance of Ayako, the first thing the two of them tasted was Yakitori, which is common in izakayas.

Instead of sitting down in the shop to taste it, I only ordered six skewers. After grilling them, I paid and the two of them walked around the street eating them.

The salty taste is paired with the crispy chicken and the sauce prepared by the store, and the rich flavor blooms in your mouth.

Next is the famous eel restaurant, which has a history of more than 40 years and shows its classics. The grilled eel skewers are a delight for Karasawa.

Genta's favorite eel rice is just to put a few large pieces of eel on top, and then eat a portion of the rice with the eel using the "eel rice three-eating" method.

Although it has a unique flavor when eaten with white rice, it is not as satisfying as eating grilled eel skewers.

I think many friends who have eaten donburi have had that experience.

It was obviously a rice bowl, but the meat on top was too little, so it was completely eaten early, and at the end of the meal, only white rice was left.

How deep that feeling of dissatisfaction is, how satisfying it is to eat grilled eel skewers at this moment, because you can eat it without any scruples!

Genta, who loves eels, will probably drool when he sees this scene.

After buying two glasses of juice, the two of them slowly continued to wander around the streets, and finally entered a seafood barbecue restaurant and sat down.

"Karazawa-kun, do you like it here very much?"

As a "tour guide", Ayako skillfully ordered the dishes. Seeing Karasawa's interest after arriving at "Mode Yokocho", she couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"Ah, I'm quite interested in old alleys."

Tangze smiled and said: "After all, when I go to school, I am always studying, but I don't have much time to spend on entertainment. However, this place has a sense of the times. Every place you go will be very novel."

Of course, this is just one of the reasons. The second reason is that Tang Ze did not live in Neon in his previous life.

So after coming here, everything in front of me is brand new, and every day is as novel as traveling.

"In that case, why don't you go meet the sumo wrestlers?"

Ayako thought for a while and suggested: "My mother wanted me to help attend a banquet before, but I refused.

No one in the family is willing to attend the banquet now, so I guess it will be shelved if no one goes. If you are interested, I can go with you."

"Sumo wrestlers?" Karasawa thought for a while and thought it would be a good idea to meet the fat guys unique to Neon.

In fact, the origin of sumo wrestling is a sport known as "Jiaodian" from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Qin and Han Dynasties among flower growers. It was later spread to Neon from the Tang Dynasty.

However, now there is basically no room for development in the local market. Instead, Neon has become the national quintessence of Neon after continuous localization development.

And "sumo wrestler" has become as representative a symbol as "samurai".

"Sorry to trouble you, I really want to meet the sumo wrestler." Karasawa chuckled and said, "I'll ask my father for an autograph then. He should be very happy."

This is not an exaggeration. Sumo wrestling is respected as the "national sport" in Neon. The social status of sumo wrestlers in Neon is even higher than that of superstars. Many female stars want to marry sumo wrestlers.

Many people even take pride in receiving postcards from sumo wrestlers when they move.

"It's nothing, I'm very happy to be with you." Ayako whispered shyly.

This was the first time Ayako mustered up the courage to take the initiative and express her feelings, but unfortunately her voice was too low, and the restaurant was noisy, so what Karasawa heard was a bit hazy and unreal.

"Did you just say something?" Tang Ze, who didn't hear clearly, asked again.

"It's nothing." Faced with Karasawa's question, Ayako waved her hands in a hurry and changed the subject: "I will go back and check the banquet time later and contact you in advance."

"Okay." Karasawa nodded, then picked up the grilled seafood and handed it to Ayako, "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good after it cools down."

"kindness."

………

"I'm very happy today. Let's see you at the banquet."

"Well, be careful on the way back." Tang Ze said goodbye to the other party with a smile, "Then we'll see you next time."

"Well, see you next time." Ayako blushed, taking her right hand away from Karasawa's warm palm, and waved goodbye to Karasawa slightly shyly.

After dinner, the first date ended here, but I had no intention of continuing it in the evening.

Now this level is just right, and there has been initial substantial progress between the two.

After all, it’s a first date. It’s better to go too far than it is to go too far. The trend of this era is not like that of the previous life, where people became passionate after just two or three days of falling in love. Everyone still takes relationships very seriously.

And Tang Ze also enjoys this kind of relationship that gradually increases gradually. In his previous life, he didn't like fast-paced relationships and hoped to meet a lover who would get along slowly and naturally.

It's a pity that the pace in the previous life was so fast, so no one had the time.

He just didn't expect that he would meet someone he had not met in his previous life. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel better.
