The winter night rain is falling, dimming the colorful neon lights of Kabukicho.
Between the buildings and shops of different heights are not-so-wide streets. The passing vehicles splash rainwater on the ground. Bosozokus drive by in groups, the cars roar, and passers-by in all kinds of strange costumes walk on the sidewalk.
Colored or clear umbrellas.
Over the street, an old-fashioned bicycle flew past at high speed, its spinning tires constantly shaking off rainwater.
Gu He stepped on the single treasure he borrowed from Jian and headed south.
At this moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw a monster-like black off-road vehicle appearing on the street in the distance.
The off-road vehicle also saw him, and the horn suddenly sounded like a crash, "Son of a bitch, bastard!"
Shan BMW responded in the same way, with the crisp car bell ringing non-stop: "Thank you for having so many balls!"
Gu He smiled and pedaled his bicycle to swoop down, walking side by side with the off-road vehicle. The front windows of the off-road vehicle were open, Lorna was driving, and Pandora was sitting in the passenger seat.
Lorna was dressed as before in the psychic network, with a red jacket, black leather pants, and messy but beautiful short black hair.
"Hello, beauty." Gu He said hello and followed Shan Bao with him, "My name is Gu He. I can see at a glance that we are a good match. Let's go have dinner together?"
Lorna looked at him with her green eyes, as if she wanted to roll her eyes, but she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
"Where did the cows and horses come from?" She honked the car horn, "Do you know who I am? If you dare to tease me, I will run you over and kill you."
The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Pandora in the passenger seat also smiled, and the big cow made a loud noise.
"Lorna." Gu He said, "It's so nice to see you like this, the real you."
"Oh..." Lorna protracted her words, "...I think so too."
The psychedelic stream of light and the cold night rain became different for them, and the whole world was pulsating.
The off-road vehicles and bicycles drove through the streets of Kabukicho, all the way back to Jue Street. When a bosozoku saw them on the road, no matter which group they were, they would greet them with the sound of motorcycles.
The advertisement screen of Licai Club showed the cool faces of the cowherds, and the neon signboard of the fish pond flashed miserably.
The three of them were still in the alley when they heard the laughter and commotion in the fish pond.
Xingtong shouted to welcome them in. As soon as the three of them walked into the fish pond, the small izakaya suddenly became more lively.
"Xiaohe, Lorna, Pandora!" Shukichi Sakai held up the wine can, "Come here quickly, Lao Fan is dueling with us. It turns out that this guy can sing a few crooked songs."
At the same time, Elizabeth, Sakai Kao, Vivian, Lu Jiu and others were calling them with various names.
Kumiko Ayane was also here, and Lao Cai was here too, and they all had fun together.
"Hey, hey." Gu He responded to the calls of one and another, feeling very warm in his heart. There were so many people.
To be honest, he really hasn't seen everyone for a while, and it hasn't been so lively.
Even Lao Fan's fat, stinky face looks a little cute.
The aroma of fresh food floats in the izakaya. On the bar, there are dishes prepared by Lao Fan, including Guandong boiled dishes, local dishes, ramen, and fried rice. They are more abundant than ever before.
Lorna walked to the bar, picked up an unopened bottle of Fenggu wine, opened the cap, and drank from the mouth of the bottle.
"This bottle of wine belongs to me." She said after taking a sip. Gu He glanced at it and said, "You won't give it to me either."
Gu He originally wanted to persuade her to drink less, but today, forget it, he only drank one glass, but Lorna has always been a good drinker.
Everyone and Lao Fan were really having a singing duel. Amidst everyone's cheers, Gu He followed the rough guitar music played by Boxer, thought for a moment, and yelled at Lao Fan: "You are developing horizontally like this, Lao
The dogs are not polluted by you."
The whole house was filled with joy at this moment, and Old Fan warned with a dark face: "Don't think that you can scold me casually just because you are back in joy."
"We just love to humiliate Lao Fan. If you don't accept it, you will do it!" Gu He immediately sang loudly again.
There was another roar at the bar, Vivian whistled, and Sakai Huaqing clapped excitedly: "Hesang is great!"
As soon as Gu He left, Lindsay came up again, Lu Jiu was also called to join the battle, and the star boy ran around the bar happily.
Lao Cai sat aside and watched Lao Fan deflate constantly, with a smile on his face. This is a fish pond.
But those who have been to that world know that there is still something to do. With the help of Ayane Kumiko, everyone first stopped humiliating Fan and gathered around the large dolphin tank again.
Gu He took over Lu Jiudi's Heart Network helmet and prepared to go online to help Luo Dun and Xingtong find the network.
Lorna stood next to her holding a wine bottle and warned: "Don't let that thing get on you. I would rather you get possessed by an evil spirit."
"Then let them take turns going offline into the fat sea?" Gu He asked.
"I think it's better like this." Pandora took off her metal hollow mask, revealing a peaceful face, and prepared to put on a helmet to go online. "The big star boy will get on top of me, and that character will go to the dolphin."
She also wanted to see that character now. She had only seen it in images before, the legend who was once followed on the streets of the city and made many people risk their lives to save it. It was a banner of the past and a hope.
"I support it," Lorna said, "An hour and a half is enough to greet him, otherwise it will be annoying to death."
Since she said it was okay, no one had any objections.
With Rodon-Lourde's condition, it shouldn't be a problem to stay at the Dolphins for an hour. If you can't hold it any longer, just go back to Xinwang.
At the moment, Gu He and Pandora sat on the chairs, and their helmets were connected to Pang Dahai's body line and entered the spiritual network.
The izakaya became quiet, and everyone looked at the situation, somewhat afraid that something might happen again.
Lorna took a sip of wine, then another sip, and suddenly frowned and said, "Why don't we go online together?"
"The helmets are all over there in Licai's basement..." Sakai Kao was a little nervous when he heard this. There were only two placed here in the fish pond. Because of this, should we go together?
"Then someone hurry up and run." Lorna looked around, "Lu Jiu, hey! Hey, you're guarding the basement, right?"
"Me?" Sophia stared under the mask, damn it, I only listen to God Pan's orders, even if you are...
"I'm going, I'm going!" Lu Jiu said quickly.
But before Lu Jiu left, the signal lights of the two Xinwang helmets changed colors, and the two of them were offline.
Gu He opened his eyes and exhaled with a smile: "You're back, everything goes well, Xingtong?" Lorna continued drinking, everyone cheered, and little Xingtong responded in confusion: "Boss?"
"Uh." Gu He was not calling Little Xingtong.
Next to her, Pandora's eyes became different, her personality changed, and her voice was also different: "...Caiyin's mother!"
Before she even took off her helmet, she stood up excitedly, looking at the people and things around her, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Star boy, welcome back." Kumiko Ayane called out gently, hugging the big star boy.
Xingtong leaned in Caiyin's mother's arms, tears welling up more and more. The fish pond, the familiar fish pond, the home that had never left her in her memory, the bar, the sofa, the TV, the faint sound of excitement coming from Li Cai, and so on.
Old and ugly Lao Fan...
Guys, there's more.
What she saw at this time made her smile, like her childhood self.
"Hello, Xingtong." She pushed Caiyin's mother away and went up to pick up the confused little girl.
"Who are you?" Xingtong is a smart person. He can see that this is not sister Pandora, and he also understands what upper body means.
"I am...Xingguang." Big Star Child said, "From now on, everyone will call me Xingguang. This is also my street name."
Streaming light cannot be retained, but starlight and the light of stars are always in the night sky.
"Sister Xingguang." Xingtong was very well-behaved this time.
Xingguang hugged Xingtong and stroked the child's round head, becoming more and more funny: "Boss, you are right, this is really interesting. Startong, I am also a member of the Thermos Cup Gang, and we are all loyal to the boss.
"
Everyone was touched and happy by the scene in front of them. This kind of messy thing was just like Flowing Light City.
Elizabeth can feel the strong power of the oath from the starlight, and she has another friend.
On the other side, Wilbur watched as the signal light on Pang Dahai in the water tank flashed. Apparently there were nerve activity signals in the body. The dolphin's eyes shone brightly, and he turned over and swam.
Here comes the Personality Rubik's Cube, not Pang Dahai, but Roden Lourdes.
"Hello, you must be Wilbur." Fat Dolphin made an electronically synthesized voice, "Hello everyone."
Everyone came over to say hello and continued to tease Xingguang. Starboy left.
Lorna picked up the bottle and took a sip. She tapped the glass water tank with her fingers and said to the dolphin with a half-smile, "You see, old guy, you are out of date. Who still knows who you are? You are swimming by yourself."
Bar."
"Lorna." Seeing that his daughter was about to turn around and leave, Roton quickly called out: "Little cutie, little sweet bear!"
"Don't fucking call me that again." Lorna immediately came to the water tank and lowered her voice and said: "From now on, you will call me Lorna. If you want to compliment me, you can call me captain. I have a mercenary group. As for others,
Yes, I don’t want to beat you with my own hands, understand?”
"Lorna, what are you talking about with Roden?" Gu He walked over again.
"He wants to drink, but I said dolphins can't drink." Lorna pulled him towards the bar.
"Hey!" Rowden-Lourde patted the mechanical pectoral fin to attract attention.
In fact, everyone didn't stay much just now because they wanted to leave some space for Lorna. Now that she walked away, they came over.
"Senior Shotgun." Kumiko Ayane's voice was filled with respect. She bowed to the fat dolphin, called him by his street nickname, and said a slogan: "Time passes, but blood and bones remain."
Only people of her generation, in those young years, will truly understand what Rawdon-Lourde is.
This man, this shotgun, once made the whole city crazy.
Rawdon-Lourdes is a fire, a rainstorm, and a bright light.
"Ah, you are... Kumiko." Roden had already heard of Yutang Reicai. When he saw his old friend, he thought of many things, "The little girl from the Nagano group, we are almost the same age now, haha.
"
When everyone saw Miss Caiyin being so serious, the atmosphere became a little serious.
But this place, the fish pond, does not allow for a serious atmosphere.
Lindsay, Sakai Shukichi, and Boxer all made the Respect gesture, and Lu Jiu followed suit.
Over at the bar, Lao Fan and Lao Cai were also watching. Lao Cai said happily: "Lao Fan, times have changed, and guns are easy to use."
"Shotgun" Rawdon-Lourde was so popular with women even if he were a dolphin.
Lorna frowned and looked at it, then whispered to Gu He: "Do you feel...Kumiko?"
Gu He nodded silently. This was the first time he saw Miss Caiyin's expression of respect and even a little bit of admiration.
And that's just the body of a dolphin. If it were Rodon himself standing there...
In fact, based on her seniority and experience, it would not be too much for Lorna to call Ayane-san Ayone's mother like Sakai Kao and Hoshido, but she has always been stubborn and always calls her Kumiko, Kumiko, making it seem like she is of the same generation.
Maybe she will have to call Caiyin's mother in the end.
"Fuck." Lorna muttered.
But this is probably just a joke between the two of them. It is normal for Miss Caiyin to have a favorable impression of Roden. For people of her time, almost all women would have a favorable impression of Roden Ludd. This does not really mean anything.
"Is this better than Vivian?" Gu He whispered to Lorna.
There was no need for him to report the information, everyone knew about Vivian's heart.
Now, Vivian leaned against the water tank and said, "Why didn't I find Pang Dahai so cute before?"
"Fuck." Lorna said again, interrupting the scene with a loud shout: "Let's eat!"
As if a switch had been triggered, everyone at the water tank rushed back to the bar. If it was late, there would be no seats left.
They started this sumptuous dinner, and the focus returned to Xingguang and Xingtong, as well as Lao Fan.
Lorna went to say something to the dolphin, "Old guy, just swim and have fun by yourself. When you get tired, go back to the psychic network."
"Xingguang, there are some things you didn't understand when you were young, but you understand now." Sakai Shukichi acted like a host and pointed at Lao Fan with a big wave of his hand, "In the traditional fish pond program, everyone sings a line to criticize Lao Fan. It's your turn!"
Boxer first put down his wine glass and played the guitar to accompany the music.
"I remember this, I remember this." Xingguang suddenly laughed excitedly, and while drinking and clinking glasses with them, he thought for a moment, "I don't scold Lao Fan when I come to the fish pond, that would be my biggest regret!"
The laughter started again, and everyone ate their snacks and looked at Lao Fan's dark face. The atmosphere in the izakaya was filled with joy.
"No, Lao Fan has thick skin and thick flesh. You can't break through the defense like this. Brother Xiuji will show you an example."
Sakai Shukichi personally went into battle and said: "The sweet love protagonist is chosen to be Lao Fan, and the fight couldn't be more dismal!"
"What to do with four to five hundred kilograms? I advise you to burn charcoal directly." Vivian said casually. Only in this way can the defense be broken.
"If you want to end being single, you have to be extremely wealthy." Nimue made a last-ditch attack.
At this dinner, everyone was not only full, but also full of laughter. Ayane Kumiko and Lao Cai all just laughed.
Elizabeth and An Qi were not familiar with Lao Fan and were only listeners. Sophia also did not participate. Wilbur was a little confused and Sakai Kao couldn't think of words, but the others were using their own talents and enjoying it.
At the request of everyone, even the cookie that was most popular with Lao Fan said: "It's easy to lose weight. Don't count pounds, just kilograms."
Although Lao Fan had a few words, facing the siege of nearly ten people, one person simply couldn't handle it, and he gradually became silent.
Lorna was also very happy, patting the bar, drinking wine, and making Gu He drink some wine.
"Hey..." Luoden swam around in the water tank, "Is there anyone there, Xiaotian...the leader? I really can't have a drink."
Still no one paid attention. It was too busy at the bar and there was so much chatter that you couldn't even hear me.
In fact, seeing his daughter so happy, Luoden was also very happy. No one cared about her. He just watched them finish their dinner while laughing and laughing. Lorna and Gu He got up to leave.
"Let's go and watch a movie first." Gu He said, "You guys have fun."
"I understand, I understand, let's go." Vivian waved her hand to tell them to leave quickly, and many people also laughed.
Luoden suddenly became a little anxious and patted the water, "Lorna! You have to be back before ten o'clock..."
Lorna glanced at the other side of the water tank and said, "Go back to the spiritual network and don't bother me." She pulled Gu He, who was still chattering with everyone, and strode outside the fish pond, ignoring anyone's laughter or laughter.
cry.
The night rain was still falling, and the two of them walked from the alley to the street outside, looking at each other and smiling from time to time.
"You don't like drinking?" Lorna asked.
"Except for the harm to the body, I can drink it, but I have no special interest in it," Gu He said.
"That's because you didn't drink good wine." She stopped him and kissed him when he looked at her, "Come and try me."
Gu He's eyes suddenly changed. They were so hot that they were burning. However, Lorna let go of him and continued to walk forward. The neon light reflected on her smiling face. Gu He chased after her, but she walked faster and faster.
.
The two of them laughed and shouted as they ran and chased each other in the rainy alley. Passers-by sided to avoid them, and the stray cat jumped past them.
There were other people in the alley, and people were coming and going on the street, but when they really touched each other's palms, they only saw each other.
The night belongs to lovers, the night belongs to you and me.
