"Eh? What's going on?"
Hearing the man's words, Hirohiko Negami looked at him and said, "Gucun, what happened?"
"Not really, but Mr. Tang Tian said that there was more work than expected, so it took a little longer. It's around eleven o'clock..."
The man named Gucun yawned, "But it's none of my business..."
"You look sleepy again." Hoshima Akira looked at the man and smiled helplessly, "You stayed up late playing mahjong again. You should take care of your health once in a while."
"It's okay, it's okay." Gucun smiled nonchalantly and waved his hand: "For a job like ours, staying up late isn't a common occurrence. We're used to it."
Yukiko, on the other side, overheard the conversation and became distressed: "This is really troublesome... If it's 11 o'clock, I'm going to miss my flight..."
"It's okay, just leave it to me." Tang Ze smiled and said, "If they can stay overnight, I'll take them with me."
"But even if the children can stay here, there is no place for them to spend the night..." Yukiko said with a headache.
The saying "plans cannot keep up with changes" is exactly what it means. She originally just wanted to take her son's current friends to see a movie before leaving, but she didn't expect accidents to happen one after another.
First, someone was following her, and then things didn't go smoothly at the movie, making Yukiko wonder if she hadn't checked the almanac before going out...
"It's okay, let the kids sleep at my place."
After hearing their conversation, Hojima Akira smiled and said, "My apartment is nearby. If you don't mind, you can sleep there now and I'll let you go back after the movie."
Faced with this proposal, the children naturally unanimously asked to stay overnight. After all, the movie "Kamen Rider 2" was an unparalleled temptation for them.
After several children called their parents, they all ended up staying.
"Then we have to work harder and finish the work at hand quickly, so that we can have a good sleep afterwards." Gucun said with a smile.
"After it's completely finished, we'll have a long-awaited all-night mahjong session to commemorate the occasion." Hoshima Akira agreed with a smile, "Just thinking about it makes me excited!"
"All-night numbness?" Hearing the conversation between the two, Yuan Tai asked in confusion, "Does it mean it's very troublesome?"
"Hahaha... no." Hoshima Akira smiled awkwardly: "It's the abbreviation for playing mahjong all night~"
"What? So that's how it is." The two said somewhat listlessly.
"Then I'll be leaving first~" Yukiko smiled and waved goodbye to the others: "Listen to Detective Tang Ze and don't cause trouble for everyone~"
"I know~" The little ones smiled and waved goodbye to Yukiko.
After Yukiko drove away, the group finished their work and left the Toudou Photographic Studio and headed towards Hojima Akira's residence.
"Let's go have dinner together? It's my treat."
After walking out of the door, Tang Ze suggested with a smile: "Everyone has been busy for so long and I guess they haven't eaten yet. How about I take the children and we go get dinner together?"
"I feel so embarrassed..." Hoshima Akira waved his hands repeatedly.
"You're welcome. We'll stay at your house today." Tang Ze said enthusiastically, "I just don't know if there's a barbecue restaurant. I'm craving some of this..."
"That's no problem... There's a small shop near my house that tastes pretty good." Hojima Akira and the other two looked at each other, and with the encouragement of a few little ones, they finally agreed.
In the end, the three of them chose a yakitori restaurant near the apartment, and the owner even specially shared a table to accommodate the large group of people.
"I want to eat roasted bird!" Yuantai shouted impatiently after sitting down.
"Don't be impatient, Yuanta. Since we are at a barbecue restaurant, of course we have to eat roasted bird!" Mitsuhiko said to Yuanta, who was impatient.
"Hehe, I feel a little hungry when I asked about the taste..." Yuantai said embarrassedly, touching his stomach.
He gave the children a menu and asked them to order their favorite food. As for the adults, Tang Ze ordered beer first and then asked them to order food.
The barbecue restaurant in Neon is different from the one in Tangze’s hometown. The core dish is “Yakitori”.
Although "Yakitori" has nothing to do with birds now, it seems that birds were actually grilled in the Edo period.
Of course, today's yakitori is mainly made with chicken. The whole part of the chicken is cut into bite-sized pieces, then brushed with sauce and grilled.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with talking about a roasted whole chicken feast.
Chicken legs, chicken wings, and chicken breasts are naturally the parts that everyone likes to eat, but as for other parts, it’s just a matter of preference.
For example, chicken liver, chicken skin, cockscomb and the like are all considered child's play, but some of them really feel like dark cuisine.
For example, chicken butt, and some dishes with unspeakable parts...
What, what? You said I was just curious about this indescribable part and I have to explain it clearly to you LSPS.
Then I can tell you an elegant name - lantern.
As for more, it is beyond the reach of a small scum like me who licks the boots of the great god.
Anyway, any edible part of a chicken can be made into yakitori.
Of course, if it is just a yakitori restaurant, opening a shop actually limits many sources of income, so there are many other dishes besides yakitori.
Even Yakitori itself is constantly improving with the times, such as adding vegetables or fruits to it.
The best thing to go with barbecue is naturally beer, which is why Tang Ze chose this kind of restaurant.
With a little bit of chili and Tang Ze's deliberate urging to drink, the group had already finished two or three glasses of beer before they had even finished a few skewers of yakitori.
After three rounds of drinks, the few people didn't eat much, but under Tang Ze's encouragement, they drank a lot of wine. In addition, they were tired after a day of work, so the three of them looked a little drunk.
Seeing this, Tang Ze knew that it was time to get down to business.
"Speaking of Dongdu Photo Lab, I actually quite like your TV series."
Because he couldn't remember the TV series that led to Hirohiko Negami's murderous intent, Tang Ze pretended not to remember it, "I can't remember it now... Yeah, what was it..."
Tang Ze pretended to be in deep thought and said distressedly, "The words are on the tip of my tongue but I just can't think of them...
But I remember there were rumors that there was a second remake, and then one of the actors got in a car accident, so his scenes had to be cut...
It’s a pity that I didn’t see the original version… I’m really disappointed…”
As Tang Ze finished his words, the previously harmonious atmosphere of the "adult group" disappeared instantly, turning into a solemn silence.
When Tang Ze saw this, he pretended to have said something wrong and said awkwardly: "What...did something really happen..."
