The great revival of Yuri Kosaka

"I'm not here, Mr. Appearance Manager." "Mr. Appearance Manager is out on business, right? Why, aren't you leaving yet?" Tennoji Yui ran away for a long time, but he didn't see him coming with Tennoji Yugo. .

Everyone in the lab originally expected to be greeted by Yugo Tennoji's roaring roar, but no one came. They sat for a while and then left one after another.

Then, as usual, only Rintaro Okabe and Yuri Kosaka, who stayed in the lab, stayed until the end.

"It's true...it's almost time to leave." Yuri Kosaka looked at the time and felt that it was indeed time to leave, so he stood up from the sofa.

"I have a question." "What?" After Yuri Kosaka stood up, Rintaro Okabe spoke as if he was thinking about some difficult problem, which made Yuri Kosaka a little curious.

"Today's Steins;Gate... Is the part about Aoi-chan at the end necessary? If you think about it carefully, it's not necessary... right?" Okabe Rintaro said a little vaguely, don't be awkward, but Kousaka Yuri could hear the point here.

"Indeed, it may be unnecessary...but that's how it happened, so it should be like this." "Did it happen like this...?" Okabe Rintaro was silent for a while and didn't say anything else. Started to sort out some debris on the lab table.

"Then, I'm leaving." There were just some pizza boxes on the table today, and there were no odds and ends to sort out. Okabe Rintaro could handle it alone.

Yuri Kosaka didn't help. After seeing Rintaro Okabe didn't respond, he opened the door and prepared to leave.

"Steins;Gate is an anime, right? It's just an anime, right?" Yuri Kosaka opened the door and was about to leave completely before the silent Okabe Rintaro spoke again.

After several pauses and questions like this, Kosaka Yuri felt that Okabe Rintaro's heart was not as calm as it seemed. The plot of these two episodes still disturbed Okabe Rintaro's thoughts to a certain extent.

"...Well, it's just animation, nothing else." "Really, that's good." Okabe Rintaro, who received a positive reply, did not continue to ask. Kosaka Yuri stayed for a while, I was sure that Rintaro Okabe would not leave the lab after making any noise.

"Huh?" As soon as he left the lab, Yuri Kosaka discovered that Yugo Tennoji, the owner of the imaging pipe shop below, had returned at some point and was sitting at the door of the store waving to him.

"Want to drink?" Tennoji Yugo, who was sitting in front of the store, shook the can in his hand and handed another unopened can to Yuri Kosaka.

"Beer? I'm still underage." What was thrust into Yuri Kosaka's hand was Asahi Ichibanzaki, which is the most common brand of beer in supermarkets.

The problem is that Yuri Kosaka is still a high school student and is not old enough to drink. This made him pause twice and put the can back next to Yugo Tennoji.

"Ah~~This is really a mistake, but I thought you wouldn't care about this. Forget it, I'll drink it myself." After hearing Kousaka Yuri's answer, Tennoji Yugo scratched his head and didn't force it. , minding his own business and continued shouting.

"How's Ai-chan?" "You've been crying for a while, and I just coaxed you to sleep. Before I came over, I had already fallen asleep in my room... Oh, you guys are so serious, I asked you to help take care of me. But it made my lovely daughter cry." Tennoji Yugo said this, but his tone was unexpectedly calm and did not mean to blame.

"It's not intentional." "I know, even if you don't have the guts to bully me." "Yeah~~ very calm.

Well, just now Hashida was still crying and complaining about being killed by you. "What kind of impression does that Hashida guy have on me? I think he's usually very friendly." ""After all, the store manager looks like this, so it's normal to have such thoughts. "'Ka' Tennoji Yugo didn't answer, but drank the little beer left in his hand and opened the can that Yuri Kosaka sent back.

"Although it's beer, it's not like I drank too much." There were 3 or 4 empty cans on the side. It seemed that he had drank several cans before Yuri Kosaka came to sign.

"It's just beer, it doesn't matter...and sometimes, I always want to drink something like this." "Huh? Is that so? I don't think there's anything delicious about this kind of thing." "Wait until you get here. I understand at this age..." Tennoji Yugo didn't continue, he just poured the beer into his mouth in small sips.

"That guy Okarun is still up there?" After taking a few sips, Tennoji Yugo looked at the lights in the lab room above that were not extinguished, and said in a positive question.

After all, the other party stayed over on Friday nights these days, and he knew it after a long time.

"Almost, it should be the same as before." "Really..." "..." "It's almost, I'm going back, Yuri, you should go back early." After a long silence, Tennoji Yu I finished the can of beer in my hand, flattened it with a pinch, stood up, and threw the empty can into the trash can beside me along with the remaining empty cans.

Yugo Tennoji acted as if he really just came here to sit for a while, but Yuri Kosaka noticed that the rolling shutter door of the imaging supervisor's room was not open. Therefore, Yugo Tennoji's coming over was obviously not a normal situation.

It's just that Tennoji Yugo didn't ask anything, such as why Tennoji Yugo was crying, what happened, and other messy things, and Kosaka Yuri didn't explain it.

"Yuri." "What?" "When the Steins;Gate DVDs come out, I will buy a set." "Um...thank you?" "You're welcome." Tennoji Yugo suddenly said this Kousaka Yuri didn't quite understand. He always felt as if the other party was playing riddles with him.

But this feeling of saying one thing but seeming to be saying another thing gave Kosaka Yuri a headache.

So after saying that, he left from Tennoji Yugo.

"..." Unlike Rintaro Okabe just now, Yugo Tennoji didn't make any other moves to stay. Saying goodbye was a real goodbye.

He just kept watching Kosaka Yuri disappear on the other side of the road.

"Will it rain, or will it not rain? Forget it..." Tennoji Yugo looked up at the dark night sky for a few times, then turned his attention to the brightly lit lab. ""What that guy Hashida said should be on video... I can't help it, I'd better take a look." "After thinking about various things, Tennoji Yugo finally went up to the lab and asked Okabe Rintaro for a copy of this week's Steins;Gate video.

Chapter 341 The Family Dining Room

"dr.pepper Family Restaurant... Are you sure you want to use this as the name of the restaurant?" "Are you worried about copyright issues? It doesn't matter, I have obtained authorization from the Dr. Pepper agent in Japan." "No. This means... I mean, you really got the authorization." A few days later, at the entrance of the renovated family restaurant, Yuri Kosaka and Kyoko Shiratou were discussing the name of the family restaurant.

It is mainly a family restaurant, but Yuri Kosaka chose a rather niche drink name as the name of the restaurant, which made the other party very confused.

However, Yuri Kosaka is the boss, so she has nothing to say in this regard.

"Of course some troubles must be avoided in advance." "It's up to you, but the staff is still not enough. Although there is a recruitment notice posted at the door, there are only a few people who have applied for the job recently. It should take some time before the business can open." "You figure it out. Well, if you don't have enough funds, you can apply with me." "Miss Kyoko, your sundae." "Well, thank you." "No, it's my honor to make a sundae for Miss Kyoko... Mr. Yuri , what are you looking at me doing? Ah, you want a sundae too, right? Sorry, I'll make you one too!" Although it's not officially open yet, there are actually only staff and kitchen utensils inside. Ingredients and other things have been prepared.

Perhaps because of this, Todoroki Yachiyo directly used the ingredients in the store to make a sundae for Shiratou Kyoko.

However, after Kosaka Yuri looked at him, the other party seemed to realize something, and walked into the store and made a sundae for Kosaka Yuri.

"Although we have reached this point, I still have to ask, are you sure you still want to hire me? It's a bit strange to say it myself. You are really a weirdo who would want to hire me as a store manager." "Of course... …No

The best way to live your life is not to run into a deficit. Although you don't expect to make money, don't lose money either. " "………Oh, I see. " Shiratou Kyoko paused, indicating that she understood.

"Hey~~This is Yuri's family restaurant." "Gu, Dr. Pepper Family Restaurant? This name is too Yuri's." "Ah hahahaha, good, very good, such a name fits the atmosphere of a lab party. Ah." "Calm down, Okaren, there are still people watching... Oh, by the way, Mr. The display manager said he wanted to visit the store, so he didn't have time to come to your place, but let me bring you this." In Kousaka Yuri After chatting with Kyoko Shiratou for a while, several familiar lab members walked over from a distance, commenting as they walked. Not far away were several friends from Yuri Kousaka's school.

While chatting, Hashida handed Yuri Kosaka something that he said was a gift from Yugo Tennoji. It seemed to be an old-fashioned light bulb. I didn’t know what the uncle meant, or was it a custom? "Are these your friends?" "Almost, the inside should be ready." "The two people who applied for the job are already in the kitchen, and they will be paid for three days just to cook this meal for you. They don't have What do you think?" "Miss Xingzi, would you like to eat something together?" "No, this is a dinner party for you and your friends before the opening. I can just go inside and have some sundaes." This meal is considered the opening of the store. Let acquaintances know about the party beforehand.

Although he called others, it seemed that Umetaro Nozaki didn't have much time to rest even during the summer vacation and couldn't come over, so Sakura Chiyo didn't come over either.

So in addition to everyone in the lab, the only people who came over were Izumi Fang, Hiiragi Kagami, and Airi Sachin.

However, the others seemed quite normal. Airi Sawachika was in a trance for some reason and felt like she hadn't slept well.

Considering it's summer vacation now, maybe the other person is the kind of person who stays in bed during the holidays? "Teacher Yuri's family restaurant... is bigger than I thought." "Indeed, Yuri thought he was joking when he said he was going to open a restaurant at first, but he didn't expect it to actually be completed." "But it's true. It's a bit difficult to enter an acquaintance's shop, it feels strange." The shop is divided into three areas, most of the seats are standard four-seater, and there is a row of single seats.

Although it is a family restaurant, considering various factors, it is not completely non-smoking. It just divides the smoking area and the non-smoking area into two halves.

"What is this space used for?" After entering the store and sitting down, Okabe Rintaro asked curiously.

Because there was no official opening today, the things inside were not completely put away. There was an empty space on the wall in the middle of the main hall, which made him feel curious.

"Ah, um, I'm going to use it to put a TV, so that the guests won't be bored while eating." "TV? Really or not, if this size is used to put a TV, it would be about 8 or 90 inches Right?" "This way everyone can see it, right?" "Um, can I ask what you are going to play?" "Of course, I will play something interesting in the store on a loop." "Yuri thinks Interesting stuff... I hope the customers in the store won't run away because of this." Yuri Kosaka's answer made most of the people present look at each other.

After all, Yuri Kosaka understands everything he finds interesting. If you don’t understand, you can go to Twitter and video websites and look at the things he has contributed.

"Oh oh oh! As expected of Yuri-sensei. In that case, you can also post Yuri-sensei's comic coloring pages on the wall, such as here, here, and here!" Izumi listened to Kosaka Yuri's answer Fang's eyes lit up, and he pointed to the empty space in the family restaurant and said.

"Fang, this is a family restaurant. Although it is said to be Yuri's, a family restaurant is different from a comic restaurant, right?" "That's right. Do you think that as long as it belongs to Yuri, you can fool around with whatever you like? , it’s not that simple.” “Hey~~ There’s not much difference between a comic restaurant and a family restaurant.” Izumi’s suggestion was jointly refuted by Hiiragi Kagami and Hashida Zhi, which made the other party pouted.

"It would be better to open a comic restaurant style if it was further inside, but after all, this place is quite far from the center of Akihabara." Yuri Kosaka has not thought about Izumi's idea.

However, although the building he bought is still within the scope of Akihabara, it is really barely there, even more barely than his residence, and it is already on the edge.

It can only be said that it still belongs to Akihabara in name, but in fact it is an area that can become the king on its own with just a call of arms.

If he had been in the store, changed the theme of the store regularly, and held some activities, then the otaku-oriented restaurant might still be able to operate.

But he wants to be the hands-off shopkeeper. The owner is Shiratou Kyoko, who has already gone fishing there.

And the other party is obviously not a person in this field, so there is no need to be so fancy.

Chapter 342 Kitchen Room

"Sato-san, please add three more pastas and two more chocolate cakes." "...I understand." In the kitchen of Dr. Pepper's family restaurant, Jun Sato, who was sitting on the bench, moved his body and got up. I picked up the pasta from the cabinet on the side.

Beside him, Souma Hiroyuki, who was also a laborer like him, began to prepare.

"Hey, now, Sato-san, Sato-san." While preparing the food, perhaps out of boredom, Souma Hiromi started chatting with him.

"What's the matter? Don't stop doing the work at hand." Jun Sato turned on the stove, boiled water in a pot, and prepared to put the pasta in.

"Do you know, Sato-san? The person eating outside seems to be the owner of this shop, and he is also a very famous cartoonist." "Boss? Isn't the boss Miss Kyoko?" "Pfft, pfft, that's not right, Miss Kyoko is The hired store manager is the actual owner of the store." "That's right, but that's normal. There's no rule that cartoonists can't open family restaurants... And you, a grown man, use this kind of onomatopoeia? The lyrics are also disgusting." "Ouch, disgusting... it's too much. If Sato-san says this, I will be sad." "Who cares about you, the stove over there is turned off." "Okay. , Okay, Sato-san is really good at summoning people." "That's almost it. You can take these things out." "I understand, come here." After preparing the requested things, Sato-san sat down again. He sat on a stool beside him, and then took something out of his pocket. However, he immediately felt something was wrong, so he continued to sit without taking the thing out.

"Ah? Don't Sato-san smoke? I thought Sato-san would definitely smoke." Todoroki Yachiyo, who came to take out the food, didn't find anything strange, but Soma Hiroyuki, who had finished handling the chocolate cake after him, was confused.

"Forget it about the lounge, this is the kitchen, so I don't want to smoke... By the way, did I tell you that I smoke?" "Ah... well, that one just saw your actions and thought you looked like He's just the kind of person who can smoke." "Yeah~~ That's it, forget it, it doesn't matter anyway." Jun Sato stared at Souma Hiromi for a few seconds before giving up thinking and continuing to sit on the stool to rest.

"Speaking of why Sato-san came here to work, as far as I know Sato-san is not short of money." "Because I am very free and want to do something... What about you?" "Ahaha, what I said is just I just want some money to support my family. The salary here is pretty good among similar people." "To support my family... Even so, you don't seem to be short of money." "Well, that's right. Let's pay off the debts for past mistakes." "Oh, that's it." After hearing Sato Jun's completely uninterested answer, Soma Hiroyomi did not continue the conversation, but picked up a comic magazine from the side and started to read.

"Unexpectedly, you are interested in comics." Jun Sato and Hiroyomi Soma both applied here a few days ago. This was actually the second time they met. The first time was on the day of application, and they met by chance.

Therefore, Jun Sato was completely unfamiliar with Souma Hiroyuki, so he was surprised to see him reading comics.

After all, the other person's outfit and flirty tone didn't seem like the kind of person who could read comics.

"No, not interested at all." However, Soma Hiroyuki's answer confused Sato Jun. What he said and what he did were completely different.

"Then what are you doing?" "This is a comic drawn by the boss. After all, I work here. I thought I should read the boss's comics, so I bought a copy before I came over." "I see, but does it make sense? Although I I don’t know why a cartoonist opens a family restaurant, but if you read his cartoons to please him, he won’t give you a salary increase.” After getting the answer, Jun Sato looked a little uninterested and didn’t think it was meaningful.

For him, working here is just a way to kill boring time.

"Well, well, it's boring anyway, and I heard that his recent short stories are highly rated." "It has nothing to do with me. If you have work, call me and I'll go inside and take a rest." Outside, Kosaka Yuri and his party have added After two meals, considering the number of people and the additional food, Jun Sato felt that it was almost time to call it a day.

Even if there are more, there shouldn't be many left, and Soma Hiroshima should be fine there.

"Let's go~" After watching Jun Sato go away, Soma Hiroyomi picked up the comic magazine again, looked at the catalog and then turned to the page written on the catalog.

"The boss here is really full of mysteries. I don't have much information. However, there is a saying that a cartoonist can know his thoughts by reading comics, so let me read it." In this way, Soma Hiroyuki Crossing my legs, I started to read "Looking Back" in the magazine - "So, it is definitely a good idea to post Yuri-sensei's original manuscript on the wall!" "This is not that kind of store, it will definitely scare away the customers. "Why don't you understand? As long as Mr. Yuri promotes it on Twitter, there will definitely be a bunch of people coming to the restaurant to eat at Mr. Yuri." "What you said is too simple. Besides, A shop like this won't be open for long. Yuri's current decoration is obviously that of a normal family restaurant that will be opened for a long time." "It's really lively." "It's not bad." Although there were a few people on the seats giving advice, most of them were eating After that, I just sat in a daze.

.

Mayuri Shiina was comparing the figure of Kurisu Makise, as if she wanted to make a cosplay costume for her.

"Speaking of which, we are going to the CM Festival in a few days. Can we go together?" "Fang, if you don't mind, of course." "...Actually, the magazine asked me the day before yesterday if I wanted to prepare an event for the CM Festival." Others When people were discussing the CM Festival, Kosaka Yuri also remembered what he suddenly mentioned to him the day before yesterday.

The booth itself seems to be reserved for large business groups every year. As one of the industry's leading monthly magazines, "Monthly Shōnen Gongon" has also been allocated a quite large booth.

However, since professional cartoonists are not in tune with this kind of fan-sacrifice, they always do it very casually.

It is said to be a CM Festival, but the commercial copies are still sold. Except that they may be new issues, they are not much different from the ones in the Akihabara store. At most, they have some more signatures from the authors.

So Minano Matoi asked Kosaka Yuri if he needed anything, and if so, he could handle it.

The main reason is that this thing is regarded as a face-saving project, and everyone does it casually.

Yuri Kosaka is very popular now and has long been the pillar of their magazine. Even if the whole thing is a mess, everyone can only say a few words about it.

After all, it's already boring in itself, and it won't get more boring than it is now.

Chapter 343 Gancheng, long time no see

"So, you want us to go and perform at the CM Festival?!" "Yuri, are you looking down on our mascot? Let me tell you, mascots also have the dignity of mascots. How could you just go and do it? So casual..." "Yes, yes, we are not the cheap escort mascots." In the venue of Amagi Glory Amusement Park, Kosaka Yuri, who had not been here for a long time, was sitting in the employee dormitory. In the hall, several magic mascots who listened to his proposal were refusing with ferocious faces.

"One hundred thousand yen per person, as long as there is a big brawl show on the morning of the first day of the CM Festival." "Understood, it is an honor to serve you, Mr. Kosaka!" "Your loyal mascot will arrive on time." Kosaka Yu Li didn't care, and directly proposed the reward, which made the guy who was snarling at him just now change his face in an instant.

"It's just the CM Festival. If you think about it carefully, it blends in with the atmosphere of our amusement park." Songsuffin, who was sitting there without talking and playing the Ancheng Glory Amusement Park game on the sofa, said that it didn't feel bad.

"You were too ugly just now. Is this considered the mascot of Gancheng?" "Shut up, Songsuffin. You must not understand the popularity." "That's right, that's right. Although the game is on sale But everyone only got so little. When I went to Pachinko before, the money disappeared like magic." "That's just because your skills are too poor. If it were me, I would definitely earn double the amount. ." When the Amagi Glory Amusement Park game was released, a sum of money was indeed distributed to these mascots, but because of Sento Isuzu's original proposal, each person only received [-] yen in the end.

Leaving aside the others, Macaron and Tirami used such a small windfall almost as soon as they got it.

"Speaking of which, Yuri, you don't come here very often. We're obviously here to help you." "That's right, that's right, you're too cold." "Also, I asked La Tifa before Were you the one who prepared Dr. Pepper for the princess?" "Huh? It seems that it did happen?" After hearing what he cared about, Yuri Kosaka paused and thought about what happened when he met the princess here before. She did say her croquettes would go well with Dr. Pepper.

"Tsk, I knew it, otherwise how could Princess Tifa buy so many Dr. Pepper for no reason." "But that Kodak likes it very much, so that's it." "Of course it doesn't matter, the guests don't buy it at all, Kodak Because one person can't consume it at all. Our amusement park's finances are so tight!!!" "Hey~~ You actually care about finances. I'm surprised." "Of course you should. If the finances are low, our salaries will be less. Yeah, I'm very strapped for money this month." "Oh~~ No wonder I'm so interested in Yuri's proposal." I don't know where Tirami's salary went. He had despair written on his face before, so Kousaka Yuri said that he was so energetic when he came on stage.

"Then, how is the situation after the game is released? Has the number of visitors to your Ancheng Glory Amusement Park increased?" When Kosaka Yuri came over, he felt that the number of people in this amusement park should be more than before.

It's just that he didn't come often, just a few times, and he wasn't sure if it was really too many or if it was just his imagination.

"If you want to say more, it seems to be more." "More, but not too much, but the popularity has indeed increased a lot, and there are often discussion posts on the Internet." "Well, although it is compared to the amusement park , what everyone is discussing is the content of the game." The official version of the Gancheng Glory Amusement Park game has been on sale for some time.

As for the results...it's just so-so, I can't say it's very good, but it's not bad either.

Because it is a single-player plot + multiplayer battle format, the sales are pretty good. The online mode that was not popular in the past is now

It can basically be queued up in a short time, and everyone enters and fights.

Probably because of the change of game mode, the online reviews for this game are quite satisfactory.

Most people feel that there should be a sequel to Dark Souls instead of an online game like this.

In fact, it’s not that it’s bad overall, it’s just that those who commented felt that once you start doing online games, you will start making online games, and then degenerate into the kind of krypton gold online game company that can be seen everywhere.

In that case, a work like Dark Souls would become a swan song, which would be very bad.

"However, Yuri, you guys like to use Okabe Rintaro too much. He is the protagonist of the game of Amagi Glory Amusement Park, he is the protagonist of the animation, and he is also the protagonist of the previous work that only had a trailer." With those Ordinary players have different concerns. Macaron is particularly confused as to why most of the protagonists in those works are Rintaro Okabe.

There are no other characters available for Yuri Kosaka. Isn’t it a bit lazy to reuse models? "Because the Phoenix Academy is really an interesting person. Forget it, let's not talk about it for now. You have to prepare the show in a few days. Don't mess it up then." "An Xin, An Xin, we have always been very serious. , we are well aware of this kind of program in front of the public." "Yes, just have an intra-team life-and-death battle like other kindergarten duels. Hehe, I have long been unhappy with this guy Song Wanwan." " .........You just have an idea." It was only a few days before the CM Festival started, and Yuri Kosaka was too lazy to think about it and outsourced all the power to these mascots.

In this way, it can be regarded as taking care of the errands of the magazine, and it will not make the magazine's booth as boring as in previous years.

"But Yuri, how are you at school?" "School? It's summer vacation now." Perhaps because of boredom, or perhaps because Yuri didn't come often, Tirami asked curiously.

"It's not about this, it's about that, that." Tirami's little finger was slightly raised, and she said pointedly.

"Huh?" But Yuri Kosaka really didn't understand and made a confused sound.

"Tirami asked how you and Isuzu were at school. You are in the same class, right?" "Hey, Isuzu never said anything, but something must have happened, hehe, hehe~~" "Uh... ...If you think about it carefully, I didn't chat with Isuzu much at school." Looking at the mascot with a mean smile on his face trying to find out something, Yuri Kosaka thought for a moment... and realized that he was in school I don’t have much memory of talking to Sento Isuzu.

Except for the first few times, the rest of the time it was basically just a greeting.

"Really?!" "You can't do this. You should take the initiative. Do you know that Isuzu is a very upright person. He helped the amusement park. You can simply take advantage of it and take down Isuzu in one go." !" "That's right, take him down and let that Isuzu guy... Gu!" Just when these mascots were about to say something else, there was a sudden coldness behind them.
