Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Summer is just right for this kind of taste...
"Would you like to go eat all the beef noodles on this street together later?"
This sentence was so incompatible with the atmosphere created by Bourbon that it caused Zhu Fujingguang's brain to freeze for a moment.
But if you appear to be caught off guard, you lose.
Zhu Fushigi Kagemitsu, who himself has no desire to win, but whose desire to win is occasionally stimulated by Furuya Rei, kept a smile on his face and tilted his head slightly to express his doubt.
Seeing he hadn't achieved his goal, Bourbon decided to withdraw and slightly distance themselves from the two of them, explaining, "The information I sent you earlier was basic. Over the past two days, I've also tried to learn as much as possible about the target. They chose this place over the more pleasant environment of Singapore because Kato Hiroyuki's wife, Kato China, loves the beef noodles here."
Half an hour later, after changing into a refreshing summer outfit and sitting in a roadside shop with a bowl of beef noodles, Morofushi Kagemitsu silently put down his chopsticks and, with a serious expression, signed to Amuro Toru, "I completely understand that lady."
It’s really delicious.
In fact, there are stores here in Japan, but it is obviously difficult to completely replicate the local flavor outside the country.
The broth is clear and rich with the aroma of beef, enhanced by the unique local green herbs and lemon. The thin noodles soaked up the broth and were smooth and delicious, while the beef slices were just the right thickness and firm.
Toru Amuro's dish also had a lot of red chili rings added to it, giving off a spicy aroma that would amaze Keimitsu Morofushi no matter how many times he saw it.
Seeing Zhu Fujingguang's sign language, the blond young man also agreed with his point of view with a serious expression.
Then, the two code-named members of the organization, who had restrained themselves from picking up their bowls to drink the soup because they had to continue tasting beef noodles from other shops, began to try to analyze the past and present of a bowl of beef noodles in this small shop full of locals in cool clothes.
Fortunately, this not-so-big coastal city is full of East Asians who come here for sightseeing or even to settle down, so their behavior didn't even attract anyone's attention.
By the time they tasted the food at the third restaurant, two adult men, Toru Amuro and Kagemitsu Morofushi, could no longer eat.
Bourbon, who has a good sense of body shape, and Scotland, who was once a sniper and instinctively doesn't allow himself to eat too much, have not put too much pressure on their digestive systems.
In fact, because this place is close to the sea, there are more seafood restaurants and barbecue restaurants, and not many noodle shops. This task will not make them feel physically disgusted when they see beef noodles later.
Feeling that his pheromones were almost turning into beef powder, Zhu Fujingguang looked at the sky outside which was already darkening, and turned to look at Amuro Toru inquiringly.
They were to come two days in advance to make preparations. According to the plan Bourbon had told him before, they could not sneak into the apartment that Kato Hiroyuki was going to stay in tonight - there were other guests staying there today, and in order not to alert the enemy, Bourbon did not ask the landlord to kick them out. This also made Zhu Fushiguri even more puzzled about where Bourbon actually went when he pretended to take a shower - he could only go to an observation deck where Kato Hiroyuki was going to take his wife, and discuss advertising cooperation with the star-rated hotel.
Soon, a blond man dressed in elite attire and a cat-eyed man dressed in literary attire appeared at the entrance of the star-rated hotel.
It was the young painter Midorikawa Yui and his caring agent Amuro Toru.
The manager of the star-rated hotel originally had no interest in this unknown painter and his even more unknown paintings, but after seeing the kind smile of the kind painter himself and the strength shown by the gentle agent, he finally agreed to this cooperation which was not pleasant for him.
After leaving the hotel, the gentle agent said, "That guy, why didn't he just take the money earlier? He had to say something that didn't fit the style of the hotel. What a tasteless guy."
Yes, the painting really comes from Scotland himself.
I don’t know where Bourbon found the paintings from Scotland before, but they were obviously past paintings that were lost when the safe house was replaced.
When Bourbon took out a photo of the painting and showed it to the hotel manager in the hotel, Zhu Fujingguang's expression froze for a moment.
Because he could tell at a glance that it was his, or Scotland's own, painting, with exactly the same style and habits, but compared to the more emotionally rich Morufushi Kagemitsu, Scotland's paintings were more restrained in content.
Bourbon's protection of the painting in front of him would naturally be regarded by Zhu Fushimi as another way to please Scotland.
But... Cat's Eyes took a deep look at the expression of the person in front of him and found that the other person was actually quite serious when he said this.
After complaining about the tasteless hotel manager, Bourbon continued to mutter, "I wanted to go to the amusement park before it closed, but now it's too late."
They stood in front of a magnificent star-rated hotel. The fountain behind them shimmered in the lights, and the reflected light only barely illuminated the lower half of Bourbon's face, making his mouth, which was moving due to his mumbling, particularly obvious.
...Oh no, Zero is kind of cute like this.
Zhu Fu Jingguang looked away calmly.
Then he moved back quietly.
Because out of the corner of his eye he saw Bourbon seemed unhappy with his reaction.
Zhu Fujingguang touched his smooth chin. His years of experience with Furuya Ling made him respond subconsciously: "Then let's go tomorrow."
Kato Hiroshi will arrive here later, so it's totally fine if they want to make time to go to the amusement park tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, just as Zhu Fushigami lowered his hands, he heard the prompt from 1207: "Furuya Rei's favorability -2!"
Zhu Fujingguang: "..."
1207: “…”
1207's tone was strangely calm: "Please analyze the current state of mind of Xiagu Ling."
Zhu Fujingguang: "...I don't want to analyze it."
1207 wanted to jump up and headbutt the culprit Jiang Gu Ling first, and then wake up the lazy host Zhu Fu Jingguang: "You! Tonight! Go! Home base!"
Zhu Fu Jingguang suddenly asked, "Come to think of it, 1207, besides rescuing me and giving me tasks, is your only function to cheer me up?"
1207: “…”
It felt it was being underestimated, but what Zhu Fu Jingguang said was indeed the truth. It gritted its teeth and replied, "Just wait!"
Zhu Fujingguang had no idea what 1207 was planning to do. He looked at Furuya Ling, who was keeping silent despite lowering his favorability, and calmly gestured, "So you mean you want to go, but not with me."
The blond, dark-skinned young man turned around and looked at his hands seriously. His lips, which were already tightly pursed, turned down even more as Zhu Fu Jingguang signed.
Zhu Fushigi Jingguang's actions did not pause because of the change in Furuya Ling's expression: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
After his sign language finished, Furuya Ling shifted his gaze to his face. Just as he was about to say something, he noticed that the hotel security was staring at them. There was no malice or even any vigilance in his eyes, but it still made Furuya Ling stop what he was about to say. He pulled Zhu Fushimi's wrist and left the front door of the hotel.
After night fell here, the melting heat of the day faded a lot, but there were still young people in vests and nibbling iced sodas passing by them, and the warmth of another person's palm on his wrist made Zhu Fu Jingguang distracted for a moment: he suddenly wanted to drink iced soda.
So he pulled his hand back, but it was held even tighter.
Morobushi Kagemitsu increased his strength a little more, and this time he successfully made Fūya Rei look back at him, with the corners of his mouth still in the shape of "へ".
The blue cat's eyes and the pair of purple-gray drooping eyes stared at each other for a while, and Zhu Fujingguang suddenly laughed and pointed to the convenience store not far away with his left hand that was not caught.
Fūya Rei didn't know what he was going to do, but he still let go.
In addition to Coke and Sprite, which are must-haves in convenience stores around the world, the convenience stores here also have many drinks that Zhufu Jingguang has never seen before.
He finally picked up a bottle of soda with passion fruit and lemon patterns on it and paid for it.
Fūya Rei stood with his back to him in the shadow of the streetlight, his head slightly tilted upwards.
Zhu Fu Jingguang followed his gaze and saw a large Ferris wheel in the distance.
Hearing a noise behind him, Rei Furuya was about to turn when a chill hit his cheek. Reflexively, he took the cold metal object from his face, staring at the cartoon lemon pattern on it. Naturally, he unfastened the clasp and took a sip, then immediately frowned at the sour taste.
He was about to complain to Zhu Fujingguang, but when he saw Scotland's facial features wrinkled as he tilted his head back and took a sip of passion fruit flavored soda.
Their eyes met and they both laughed, and the strange atmosphere just now dissipated a lot.
Furuya Rei complained, "Why are both bottles so sour?"
Of course, I think my current mood is very suitable for this kind of soda, and I want Zero to have a taste of it too.
Thinking of this, Zhu Fujingguang, who couldn't free his hands to sign language, typed a response on his phone: "Because summer is the perfect place for this kind of soda."
After that smile just now, Furiya Rei had adjusted his state and quickly put the Bourbon skin back on.
Although he was still holding the garish lemon-flavored soda that was incompatible with Bourbon's painting style, his expression had perfectly switched to Bourbon's business state, and he was trying to redeem his previous less than attentive attitude towards Scotland.
"Wei Jun, you're kidding. Why wouldn't I want to go with you? Isn't it because I want to be with you that I want to go to a place like an amusement park?"
Bourbon used local ingredients. Since he didn't have a red wine glass, he lightly touched the passion fruit soda with the bottle of lemon soda. The newly opened soda made a refreshing bubbling sound when it collided with the bottle.
Zhu Fujingguang was thinking quickly whether to reject this person who didn't really want to go to the amusement park with him - who knows how much Rei Shogumo hated him in his heart at this moment, so he wanted to give Rei Shogumo some peace and quiet; or to agree to it, which would further reduce Rei Shogumo's favorability and shut 1207 up.
Before he could come to a conclusion, he heard a voice that definitely shouldn't be here.
"Midorikawa?"
