Chapter 18 Play Tokyo III Game Hall and Late Night Cafeteria
The girl smiled softly, wrote something in a small book with a pen, and then handed it to Ye Xuan.
"Yi ZiYiZi, let's go to the game arcade. It is said that there are many games to play there. Eri Yi has always wanted to go."
Ye Xuan was stunned when he saw it. Game arcade? Isn't it a little late?
Ye Xuan looked up at the sky. Night had fallen. The city was lit up with colorful neon lights, making the whole city bright. The street lights had also been on long ago, spreading light yellow on the road covered with cherry blossoms.
of light, and the falling cherry blossoms also slowly fell in the brilliance.
There were not many pedestrians on the street. I think it was because this place was not as prosperous as Ginza. The boy and girl holding large dolls just stood under a tall cherry blossom tree, looking at the cherry blossom petals falling all over the sky, and there was a sense of wonder.
The feeling of watching snowflakes fall in winter.
However, what is falling now are pink "snowflakes".
It was still early and the game arcade should not have closed yet. Ye Xuan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
The girl showed a smile, and then jumped up and down again on the road covered with cherry blossoms, like a lively rabbit.
Ye Xuan followed slowly, still thinking about his stupid answer just now.
They didn't go far when they saw an electronic game arcade. It was not big in scale and there were not many game machines in it, maybe more than twenty.
Most of the game consoles have a yellow or red appearance, and some have a dark appearance. Some are two meters high, and some are as short as one and a half meters. There is a huge screen in the middle, and a projection screen below the screen.
Coin hole and operating buttons.
Maybe it was a little late. There were not many people in the game hall. There were only a few teenagers with dyed yellow or red hair playing enthusiastically in front of a few game machines. From time to time, there were angry and cursing voices. I guess it was all about quality.
player.
After exchanging a large amount of game coins from the boss, Hui Liyi first chose a yellow game machine and put in the game coins, and then looked at Ye Xuan who seemed to be waiting for him.
Knowing what the girl was going to do, Ye Xuan had no choice but to put down the stuffed bear, sit in front of a game console next to the girl, put in the game coins, and prepare to play online with the girl.
The arcade game picture on the screen is not beautiful, and there is a string of Japanese words in the middle, which means Samurai Shodown.
Hui Liyi wants to compete with Ye Xuan in serving the soul.
To be honest, the rich boy who grew up under the red banner is not very familiar with the game consoles in street arcades. He is more familiar with computers or PS consoles. So he doesn't know how to operate the bunch of buttons on the game console.
After being pressed and beaten for a while, I figured out how to execute combos.
Perhaps because she sensed Ye Xun's clumsy operation, the girl also let her guard down to a certain extent, just pressing down on Ye Xun and hitting him instead of directly taking him away with a combo of moves.
After Ye Xuan became familiar with it, the battle officially began.
…
After some manipulation, Ye Xuan still lost without any doubt.
Ye Xuan smiled bitterly and admitted defeat. Compared with this fighting arcade game, he was really not as good as Hui Liyi. Although Hui Liyi was exposed to arcade for the first time, her operation was already comparable to some masters, and she also played it on PS.
After playing "Samurai Shodown" for a long time, he can be regarded as a top player.
There is no shame in losing.
With this idea in mind, Ye Xuan started the second battle at the girl's urging.
The characters are random, the operations are random, and the victory or defeat depends on time.
But both of them forgot about dinner.
…
By the time the two of them walked out of the closed game arcade with unfinished content, there were only two and three people walking on the street.
Ye Xuan saw the girl yawning faintly and showing a slightly tired look. He suddenly remembered that the two of them hadn't had dinner yet, and felt a little annoyed that he had ignored such a serious problem.
When the girl saw Ye Xuan's annoyed look, she thought something had happened, so she wrote in a small notebook, "What's wrong with Ye Xuan? Is it because he keeps losing?"
Ye Xuan was dumbfounded. Winning or losing the game did not matter. Even though he lost all night, whether it was "Samurai Shodown", "King of Fighters", "Dino Kombat", or "Mortal Kombat", Ye Xun had no choice.
With one exception, the girl's superb skills forced her to the ground and beat her. In the end, Ye Xuan gave up her struggle and was hung up by the girl and beaten.
Don’t talk anymore. If you talk too much, you will shed tears.
Ye Xuan shook his head, not thinking about those things, "Hui Liyi, let's go have a midnight snack."
The girl who had also forgotten to eat at night also had her eyes light up slightly when she heard the word "late night snack". She must have been hungry.
Ye Xun couldn't help but smile when he saw the girl nodding her head with an expectant look in her big eyes. He reached out and touched the girl's hair. The girl had no reaction, but he could see a little joy flowing from the girl's eyes.
Finally, the two found a small-looking shop in a remote alley. There was a white lantern and dark blue cloth hanging outside, and it was divided in the middle to allow customers to enter.
The store is small, there are not many seats, and it is still early for a late-night restaurant, so there is not a single customer in the store. There is only a middle-aged man holding a white rag on a "U"-shaped wooden table similar to a bar counter.
Wiping.
And behind this "bar" is the kitchen area. Kitchen utensils of all sizes are neatly stacked, so even if the store is small, it will not give people a messy feeling.
The middle-aged man, the owner of the late-night cafeteria, wears a white apron around his waist. He is neither tall nor thin. His skin color is somewhat black and yellow due to years of work. There is a scar across the entire eye on his right eye.
It looks a bit ferocious, but the boss has a calm face and seems to have a good temper.
As soon as the boss saw Ye Xuan and Eryi lift up the cloth and open the wooden door and come in, he stopped what he was doing, bowed slightly, with a kind smile on his face, "Welcome, please take a seat wherever you like."
Ye Xuan nodded in return, while Hui Liyi looked at the store from the side, her big eyes gleaming, looking very curious.
Ye Xuan put down the stuffed bear and sat in front of the "bar" with Eri Yi. On the wall directly opposite, there was a white paper similar to a menu, which read:
Tonkotsu set meal - 600 yen
Beer (large) - 600 yen
Japanese sake (two sets) - 500 yen
Soju (one glass) - 400 yen
Alcohol is limited to three drinks per person
The menu is strange. It only lists a tonkotsu set meal similar to miso soup and alcoholic beverages. There is no mention of anything about the food.
Ye Xun was stunned for a moment while looking at the menu, and then looked at the boss. The boss had already put down the rag in his hand. When he saw Ye Xun's eyes and knew his doubts, he smiled slightly and said, "Guests may feel strange, but as long as
Customers can order whatever they like and cook whatever they can. This is my way of running the business. This is a late-night canteen, specially for customers who go home late at night."
Feeling the surprised look in the eyes of the girl next to him, Ye Xuan couldn't help but smile. He was also very interested in this late-night canteen.
Originally, he just followed what Uesugi said during a drunken chat. There was a late-night restaurant hidden in a deep alley near Shinjuku. The owner was a very mysterious person and the food was delicious.
Unexpectedly, he found him, and the boss could cook any dish just like Uesugoshi said. As for the mysterious words, Ye Xuan hadn't figured it out yet.
