I'm really unnerved in Tokyo

Chapter 462



Chapter 462

It was approaching twelve o'clock in the evening, but the service area of ​​Aichi County, which is a transportation hub, seemed more lively than during the day because of the incoming and outgoing trucks and night buses.

"Big Lonely Man: I expect to be back in Tokyo at eight o'clock in the morning, and the teacher who drove me has arranged for other people to help with the delivery..."

"Akagi Miaomiao-chan: Well, that's great, then let's meet downstairs in Akihabara at 09:30, and I will prepare a bento for Araki-sensei."

"The Lonely Hunk of Shujing: Thank you so much, Araki-kun, a professional long-distance transport driver, assures you that you will arrive at your destination on time."

"Akagi Miaomiaochan: By the way, Mr. Araki, because of the 'Assassination Incident of the Galactic Alliance Church', the Association requires that the recent despiritual actions must be carried out in groups of two or more... So, the subsequent despiritual actions, can Will you take me with you as a trainee?"

"The Lonely Hunk of Shibune: Of course, let us feed that broken picture scroll with white light spots, and let it spit out the secrets in its stomach!"

In the brightly lit ramen shop in the service area, Sousuke Araki looked at the information records on his mobile phone, his face flushed with anticipation.

"Two guests, the "Extra Large Bowl of Super Thick Tonkotsu Ramen" is here, please take it easy. "

At the same time, the waiter brought up two servings of hot ramen.

"Virgin, there is a saying that goes well, if you miss the Thai bath in Aichi Prefecture, you can't miss the tonkotsu ramen in Aichi Prefecture!"

"Isn't this a common saying you made up now... Wait, this is the 'special' ramen in Aichi Prefecture that you boasted about all the way, Uncle Watanabe?!"

Looking at the things that were automatically mosaiced in the big bowl in front of him, Araki Sosuke couldn't help but twitched the corners of his eyes slightly.

Although when it was served, the waiter did say the word "ramen"...

But in the bowl in front of him, there was no noodle at all, only a bowl full of dark, sticky unknown liquid, and a piece of seaweed stuck on the side.

Rather than "Aichi's special ramen", it seems more like "Aichi's special clay", or "Aichi's special sesame paste".

"Don't be ignorant, you boy. This 'Dayanting Ramen' has been famous long before the service area reform era, and the old drivers know it. Just take a bite and you will know it, and those newly opened chains that fool people Dining is not the same thing...”

Seeing his disgusted expression, Uncle Watanabe showed a look of "you will know after eating it".

More than ten years ago, the Japanese expressway service area was synonymous with "dirty and chaotic". Not only were the facilities old, but the food and vending machines could only meet the basic food and clothing of the people in the past.

In 2005, following a large-scale organizational reform, the Japan Expressway Corporation was split into a number of different expressway management companies by region.

Since then, the East Japan Expressway companies, facing the pressure of generating income, have begun to change their concepts, changing the positioning of the expressway service area from "a facility for stopping to go to the bathroom" to "a large complex for the purpose of leisure travel." ".

Up to now, the high-speed service area has not only become a large-scale shopping mall with catering, accommodation, leisure, and services, but also a charming "local charm display platform" combined with the history, culture, and nature of the location where the service area is located. "Gourmet Paradise" and "Internet celebrity attractions".

Not only are the store categories diverse and high-quality, but also "limited products" and popular buildings have been developed based on the seasonal specialties of each service area.

For example, the Hanyu Service Area, which is famous for its many century-old specialty restaurants, the Saitama Tohoku Expressway Service Area, which perfectly reproduces the style of the Edo period from architecture to food, and the Hokkaido Sunagawa Service Area, which is surrounded by a vast snow scene...

Therefore, Araki Sousuke originally had great expectations for the "Aichi Prefecture Special Ramen" highly recommended by Uncle Watanabe.

"My little brother, Dayanting's ultra-thick tonkotsu ramen must be eaten while it is hot. If it is cold, it will become a very scary food."

When Sousuke Araki was staring blankly at the "black sesame paste" in front of him, a man dressed as a driver and wearing a baseball cap who had just walked into the store and sat at the next table smiled and reminded him.

"That's right, this super thick noodle soup must be eaten while it's hot... This little brother also knows how to walk... Hulululu..."

Hearing the reminder from that person, Uncle Watanabe quickly picked up his chopsticks and started stirring his bowl of "sesame paste".

As he stirred with his chopsticks, the chewy noodles, tender bean sprouts and soft char siu buried under the thick noodle soup revealed their true faces.

"Hey, people who often run on this road know well...you two eat slowly, so you can go on the road after eating."

The man nodded in greeting and walked out of the shop.

"Well, has this person stopped eating...Damn it, this slimy, vomit-like thing is actually 'pork bone broth'?"

Looking curiously at the empty tabletop left by the man, Araki Sousuke gently inserted the spoon into the middle of his noodle bowl with an expression of "can't accept it".

"Hey, even the spoon 'stands up' easily, this thing is more exaggerated than ice cream! 』

It is said that this bowl of super thick tonkotsu soup base is made by the store using a lot of pork bones and cooking it day and night, so that it is like batter and can't be poured even with inserted spoons and chopsticks. lower consistency.

"Hey, the taste is unexpectedly good? Hululululu..."

Trying to take a big mouthful of the noodles wrapped in soup base, Araki Sousuke suddenly showed a surprised expression.

Although the appearance is really not very good, but the rich tonkotsu soup that is almost solid, full of fragrant pork bones, wrapped in springy noodles, soft and delicate char siu, burst out immediately after the entrance The strong and thick flavor makes people feel like running naked among countless white and tender pigs. Once you eat it, you can't stop it immediately.

"How about it, newcomer... There are many things in this world that cannot be judged by their appearance!"

Seizing the opportunity, Uncle Watanabe, as a "master for a day", began to preach again: "Things that often look bad, on the contrary, hide an irreplaceable beauty."

"Well, be taught and be taught... Hulululu..."

Mouthing ramen, Araki Sousuke finally understood why the man reminded himself just now that this noodle must be "eaten while it is hot".

This soup base with high fat and collagen content, I am afraid that if the temperature drops a little, it will instantly turn into an indescribable jelly...

"Sorry, Uncle Watanabe, wait for me for a while, go to the bathroom..."

"You boy, didn't you just solve it once before eating ramen? It seems that the kidneys are not good... Hurry up and come back, I'll drive to the side to refuel first."

After eating ramen, he came out, perhaps because he drank too much tonkotsu soup, Araki Sousuke and Uncle Watanabe said something, and hurried towards the toilet.

"Hey, how can you do this at a critical moment?"

However, when he found the toilet with his legs crossed, he found that the door of the toilet was closed and there was a sign saying "the circuit is damaged and under maintenance".

"Human, can you still suffocate to death with urine?"

Suffering from the soreness between his legs, Sousuke Araki looked left and right, and resolutely rushed into the dark green belt beside him.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

"Phew, I'm saved."

After a burst of surging water, Sousuke Araki, who was standing behind a big tree, shook his body a few times and pulled up his trouser chain contentedly.

"Kacha...a splash..."

Just as he finished committing the crime and was about to escape, there was the sound of something breaking and collapsing in front of the big tree.
