Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 2 002. Expired Beauty
Takenouchi Akihito is the young man he met after his rebirth, a student of Aoyama Gakuin University.

A few days after his rebirth, on a night when business was deserted due to strong winds, Takenouchi Akihito and college students, men and women, poured into the store.

Odyssey does not receive female guests alone, but a male lead is sufficient.

That night, as if to fight against the coldness brought by the bad weather, the guests and the hostess were intentionally enthusiastic, lively and frivolous female students, and even invited the male waiters to dance.

Takenouchi Akihito danced the worst, but paid special attention to Iwahashi Shinichi, who was outstanding in dancing, and took the initiative to chat with him.This person is naturally familiar, and every time he comes to the store in the future, if Iwahashi Shinichi is on duty and sees him, he must say hello to him.

Although the waiter in the night scene said "friendship with the guests" is a bit strange, but it is always correct to say that it is a familiar guest.

Tonight, Takenouchi Akihito came with three or four other male students, several of whom ordered whisky and gleefully commented on the female singer singing on the stage.

After a few chats, Iwahashi Shinichi was about to leave, but Takenouchi Akihito stopped him, "That's right, Iwahashi. Are you free at night next Tuesday?"

"I'm free at night. However, during the day, I will work until 05:30."

He works three nights a week at Odyssey and five days at a Yoyogi pizza chain called Losark.Among them, on Thursdays every week, the time of the two jobs overlaps, and it must be very busy at that time.

"If you are free, can I ask you to do a dance next Tuesday night?"

"what?"

"The friend who came to the store together last time joined a band and was originally scheduled to perform next Tuesday, but unfortunately a dancer broke his foot, and now he has to find someone to mount it temporarily."

"And the band has a backing dancer?"

Iwahashi Shinichi's impression of the band is the lead singer, guitar, bass and drums. There are four kinds of them, even if they have all four corners.Or add a synthetic keyboard.I've never seen a dancer anyway.

Takenouchi Akihito said of course, "The composition of the band is not all strange."

Well, he was ignorant...

"There are many kinds of dance, so suddenly, I might not be able to do it." Iwahashi Shinichi declined.He doesn't really want to waste his time playing with an obsessive band he's never heard of.

"I don't think it's a problem," Takenouchi Akihito is still insisting, "Actually, she followed me to the store once before and danced with you. Now she also thinks of you first, saying that you are competent, so I Volunteer to ask."

she?
Iwahashi Shinichi tried to recall whether there was such a person among the female students who chattered into the store he had seen, but there was not even a single image in his mind.

"Of course, it's not for nothing, it's paid." At this time, Takenouchi Akihito said again.

Hearing that there is money to be taken, Iwahashi Shinichi finally became serious.No one has a hard time with money.

"The performance fee is calculated separately, and the time occupied by the middle rehearsal is also counted as an hourly wage, [-] yen."

Akihito Takenouchi saw that he was beginning to be interested, and hurriedly applied for the conditions, "The leader of the band is a graduate of the Fine Arts Department of the Cultural Institute, and he has a lot of money. You should consider it a part-time job, please think about it carefully."

Going to a dance party and earning some extra money seems pretty good.Anyway, when I'm not working, I'm idle. If you can't do it, you can go and have a look.

If you have the money, it's okay to play with a band whose style you haven't heard before.As for whether he was paid by a wealthy young master or a frugal young dream chaser, the background of the band had nothing to do with him.

That being the case.

"Okay then." Iwahashi Shinichi agreed.

During work hours, it was inconvenient to continue talking about personal matters. Takenouchi Akihito asked him for his contact information and how to arrange the follow-up, and then called him again.

On the way back to the preparation room, Shinichi Iwahashi brought a pen and paper, wrote down the phone number of his apartment, and handed it to Akihito Takenouchi while delivering the things, not forgetting to explain in advance, "I have a part-time job at 08:30 in the morning, [-]:[-] I was able to answer the phone before."

Takenouchi Akihito gestured "OK", "I see, I will contact you before that."

If you want to make a call, you have to explain the time in advance, and Shinichi Iwahashi can't help but miss the era of national intelligence.

Separated from Takenouchi Akihito, Iwahashi Shinichi continued to greet him at the store.When it was about to close, he returned to the lounge, changed his uniform, greeted his colleagues, and walked out of the store.

The rain in the evening turned into a misty mist, and the air was humid, but it seemed that there was no need to hold an umbrella anymore.

Iwahashi Shinichi walked down the iron stairs, came out of the lane, and walked alone on the street late at night.Avoid the drunkards who are stumbling around, and turn a deaf ear to the loud noises coming.

Those well-dressed and courteous men and women that I saw during the day, when they came to this street at night, after the yellow soup was eaten, they completely changed their personalities.

If there is enough time, and it happens to be a bit boring and vulgar, in addition, there is a little bit of foolishness who is not afraid of danger. Walking around Kabukicho in the middle of the night, you can always see no less than a hundred kinds of drunken ugliness.

At this time of get off work, I can just catch the last tram.

After staggering through four stops, I got off the bus at Kouenji.Iwahashi Shinichi got into the narrow alley of the old street and turned around until he stopped in front of an old two-story apartment.

Chaofeng Village.

When I first came here, every time I went out and came back, Iwahashi Shinichi stared at the small sign at the door, always thinking to himself that in reality, someone would give the apartment such a silly name.

The two-story building was divided into eight rooms. The landlord himself lived in the room on the first floor that was not facing the sun. The remaining seven rooms, including him, were now rented out.

Iwahashi Shinichi took the key from his waist and slowly climbed up the gray concrete steps.Returning home late at night, when going up the stairs, he tried to lighten his steps as much as possible.

When renting such a house, the landlord will not be picky about the occupation and life of the renter.Of course, if such a house is too concerned about these things, I am afraid that it will not be able to attract tenants.

But the more like this, the less he wants to cause trouble.

Room 203 on the second floor is where he lives.

Leaving the umbrella outside, opening the door, grasping the light cord hanging from the ceiling and pulling it gently.For a place as large as six stacks, a small light bulb is enough to illuminate it.

As soon as you enter the door, there is a kitchen next to it, a short and rudimentary countertop, like a home toy.

Not long before Iwahashi Shinichi moved in, the landlord had repaired the house and changed the paper for the sliding closet door.Bai Sensen's cheap stuff looks extremely appalling in this shabby house.

The narrow activity space, as a bachelor's apartment, is fairly organized.

Of course, it also has something to do with nothing at all in the house.

Iwahashi Shinichi took off his coat, hung it on the wall with a hanger, filled the kettle with water, and turned on the gas stove.While waiting for the water to boil, he opened the drawer of the kitchen cabinet, pulled out a bag of instant noodles, tore the bag open, and poured it into a bowl.

The bottom of the kettle clacked as soon as it was hot.

For nearly three months, he was repeating this routine.

Doing so can be said to be observing and adapting to this unfamiliar country, or it can be said to be self-protection in a daze after a sudden change of identity.

When he was just reborn, he even felt a little bit of fear in the face of the huge city moving at high speed and the unfamiliar human environment.

It's not that he never thought of returning to his "hometown" in Shizuoka, but Shizuoka and Tokyo are all unfamiliar places to him, and he needs to get to know them from scratch.

People do not regard a place without a sense of belonging as their hometown.So, in Shizuoka and Tokyo, it's no different.

Tokyo is big, but the possibilities are endless.Although Shizuoka is small, it is only a cave for the losers to hide.

He had nowhere to hide but faced the storm.

When the water boiled, Iwahashi Shin took the bowl to the low table in front of the TV, and went to pick up the kettle.Pour the boiling water into the bowl, and put a copy of "FLASH" on the mouth of the bowl.

The girl idol on the cover, Yoko Minano, stared at the low ceiling with wide-open eyes.

The magazine is three months old, but even Yoko Minano, who has expired three months ago, is still beautiful.Even before he saw this magazine, he didn't know who Yoko Nanye was, but a beauty is a beauty.

During the 3 minutes of waiting, Iwahashi Shinichi followed her gaze a little bored.

On the ceiling, there is a brown stain that I don't know what it is.

After eating and taking a shower, Iwahashi Shinichi took out the sleeping bed from the closet.He has never laid a floor, and now, every day, he repeats the same thing as a bed and a bed. If he sets a small goal for himself, he wants to live in a house with a bed.

After a rain, the sleeping bed was invaded by the moisture in the air, which was very uncomfortable.

Iwahashi Shinichi wrapped his legs in a blanket, hoping that tomorrow would be a sunny day so that he could bask in the damp bedding.
