Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 278 From Izakaya to Karaoke
Picking up a skewer of chicken and spring onion, Naruse took a bite, feeling the taste was good, and looked at the other food on the plate.

They ordered a lot of grilled items such as grilled chicken kebabs, grilled mackerel, and grilled mushrooms, as well as fried items such as fried chicken nuggets and squid tendons. Although there was no wine, they also ordered appetizers such as cold slaves and branch beans. , a table full of various foods.

Because there are five people, and there are special edibles among them, so don't worry about not being able to finish them.

Click!

"Haven't you finished filming yet?"

Facing the fried golden tempura in front of him, Hai Xing took another photo before putting down his phone.

"Just now I took photos of the whole food, now I take individual photos."

"Is there any difference?"

"Yes, I have."

She picked up the tempura and bit into it.

"Hmm~"

Naruse also picked up the Calpis in front of him and took a sip.

After all, this is an izakaya. There are only non-alcoholic beverages, such as Calpis, fruit juice, cola and ginger ale. The choices are not rich.

He put down the glass, Shangzi picked it up and took another sip.

"Sure enough, Calpis is better."

"Let me order another drink."

"No, I'll just drink a little."

"Shangzi has already drunk half a cup."

She pursed her lips and looked around.

Naruse brought her ginger ale over.

"Exchange."

"uh-huh."

Sen Jian glanced at the two of them, then turned his head outward again.

"It seems to be buzzing outside."

"This time is the busiest time for the izakaya," Naruse said.

She looked over, "I heard that office workers in Tokyo go to drink after get off work every day."

"It's not quite there yet, but it's not far off."

"Because of too much work pressure?"

"probably."

"so……"

Hikaru Takikawa raised his cup, "It's better to stay in the country."

Sen Jian smiled, just clinked glasses with her and didn't answer.

Several people continued to eat.

And after getting his wish, Takigawa Hikaru finally chatted with Naruse about going to the training center together tomorrow.

"Let's just ride there."

"The training center is on the side of Shidu." Mori said, "It feels quite far away."

"It only takes about 10 minutes to ride a bicycle, which is very fast."

"Yeah." Naruse nodded.

For the first time going there, of course it would be more convenient to have someone who is more familiar with that side lead the way.After class, he had to go by himself.

"After that, Harumi will go to the training center to learn how to drive, just come to me." Takikawa Hikaru said again.

Naruse was startled, and shook his head, "That's too troublesome, I'd better take the bus by myself."

"It's really troublesome to take the bus. There is no direct bus, and you need to transfer twice from Aoyagi, which will take at least an hour." Takikawa Hikari said.

"Anyway, I don't have anything to do. When Chunhai is free, I will be free too."

Naruse thought for a while, "Okay, then I will trouble you."

She smiled slightly, and took the initiative to ask for a reward: "As a reward, Chunhai only needs to treat me to dinner once a week."

"Is it the gas fee for me?"

"Haha, it's almost the same. You don't need to go to any good shops, just like today's."

Naruse nodded, "No problem."

"Then can I bring my friends with me?" Takikawa Hikari asked again.

"..."

Naruse glanced at the two friends sitting to her left.

"It'd better be a friend I don't know."

"Don't do that."

Naruse looked at Shangzi, she took another sip of Calpis.

"Then once a week."

"Fix it on Friday night." Takikawa Hikaru continued his words, "After dinner, everyone can go to play together."

Naruse looked at Shangzi again, "Then my date with Shangzi can only be postponed until the weekend."

She put down the glass, "You can also make it a day in advance."

"also."

"I also think it's good to have dinner with everyone once a week."

"Okay—everyone's happy, so it's decided. Let's have a toast."

Hikaru Takikawa raised the glass in his hand.

"cheers!"

Five people clink glasses.

After putting it down, she asked again:

"What did Chunhai do when he was dating Shangzi?"

Mori Jian and Hai Xing both looked over, with different expressions.

The two looked at each other, and Shangzi said, "Dining, shopping, that's about it."

"Any other activities, like going to karaoke or something?"

"You like singing too much."

Naruse shook his head.

"But Jinqian is just such a small place. Apart from places like karaoke, there is nothing to do if you really want to."

"When Chunhai gets his motorcycle driver's license, he can go somewhere a little further away on weekends."

"Let's talk later."

Several people continued to eat and drink, slowly eliminating the pile of food on the table.

"I just saw that this izakaya also has ochazuke, and I'm a bit craving it."

"Isn't that enough? Are you sure you can finish what's on the table?"

"I just want to try it."

"... Order it."

A few people came here at about six o'clock, and when they were ready to leave after eating, it was almost eight o'clock, and it was completely dark outside.

Naruse settled the bill, and Mori Jian glanced at the side, "We ordered so many things, so this little money is enough?"

"It's a good deal." Takigawa Hikaru leaned over and said.

"Well. You can fill your stomach with not much money, and you can numb yourself with alcohol. No wonder office workers like to come to izakaya."

"..."

Naruse glanced at her, then at Takikawa Hikaru: "Your friend is such a disappointment."

"Haha."

Coming out of the izakaya, Takikawa Hikari asked, "Which karaoke do you want to go to?"

"You and Haixing go a lot, it's up to you to decide."

The two looked at each other.

"Song of the Stars?"

"Okay."

The karaoke shop they mentioned was nearby, and it only took seven or eight minutes to walk there.

Hikaru Takikawa rode slowly in front with Naoko, and the three of them followed behind.

When the evening wind blew, Morimi brushed his hair and looked up at the night sky.

"It feels pretty good."

"what?"

"After school on Friday, it's the feeling of having dinner together and having fun together."

Naruse looked at her, then at Haixing, "If it's just like this, then it's really good."

Seeing him, Sen frowned, "What do you want to say?"

"I also want to ask, what do you want to do?"

The two stared at each other silently, both guessing what the other was really thinking.

"..."

Hai Xing looked left and right blankly, not understanding why the atmosphere between the two suddenly dropped to freezing point.

"There's a turn ahead—" Takikawa Hikaru turned around and reminded.

"Yeah." Naruse responded, and looked away first.

Sen Jian stared at him, feeling baffled.

Song of the Stars is coming soon.

"Today is Friday, are there any vacant boxes?"

"I'll ask."

Hikaru Takikawa walked to the front desk, and after a while he turned around and made an OK gesture.

"Need something to eat?"

"Just finished eating..."

"It will take a long time to sing."

"Then just have some."

"Chun Hai, come here."

Naruse went over to take a look, and Hikari Takikawa pushed the three girls to the box first.

"Chun Hai, wait a minute, don't make a mistake."

"understood."

Naruse really didn't have much appetite, so he ordered a order of French fries, anyway, he could order more if it wasn't enough.

As for drinks, you can drink freely.

"Have you ordered yet?" Sen Jian came over again.

"A order of chips. Would you like anything else?"

"No, I can't eat it."

"so be it."

The two walked towards the box, singing from left and right.

"What exactly did Naruse want to say just now?" Morimi asked suddenly.

Naruse looked at her.

"Now is supposed to be my date with Naoko."

"Ah."

"It's Morimi's idea to let Hikaru persuade Shangzi to join with Haixing."

She stopped, pushed down her glasses, and looked at him too.

"Yes."

"What does Morimi want to do?"

"What do I want to do..."

Sen Jian frowned, suddenly understood.

"You must have misunderstood something.

It was indeed my idea to let Guang persuade Shangzi.

But before that, it was Guang who came to me first and asked me how I could keep everyone together. "
