Chapter 246 Hijacking(1/2)
The streets of Tokyo are always busy in the morning. There are lots of cars and pedestrians.
"Store manager, that beggar outside is so scary. Do you want to drive him away?"
Xia Hua walked up to the store manager cautiously and said in a low voice.
Outside Ristorante F's shop, a man in tattered clothes and disheveled hair was sitting on the steps in front of the window. He was covered in various stains and was dirty. He couldn't tell how long it had been since he took a shower.
He didn't know how long he had been sitting in front of the store, but he saw Xia Hua when he came to work at around nine o'clock.
Japanese restaurants do not have the habit of providing breakfast, so they open earlier at noon. The opening time of Ristorante F is ten o'clock. At this time, people sometimes come for brunch.
"Who's going to catch up? Are you going?" Suwon Fuyumi said angrily.
"Then I wouldn't dare!" Xia Hua quickly shook her head.
The down-and-out beggar is scary to look at. Maybe he is very aggressive and can curse people? How dare she chase people away?
About five minutes later, Suwon brought out a bowl of meat sauce and cheese rice from the kitchen.
"The customer ordered it wrong. It was a waste. Go and deliver it to him."
Of course, he was referring to the beggar. It was just a meal, but Xia Hua still dared to do so, so the beggar would not be cruel to her.
But the customer ordered the wrong order? It just opened, so there are no customers yet?
This was just a small episode. The beggar didn’t say anything after taking the rice, and just ate it.
The door had just opened at this time, and there were no customers yet. Suiyuan was busy preparing meals in the back kitchen. She glanced at the wall clock on the wall. It was ten o'clock sharp. Generally speaking, customers would come and be busy starting at ten-thirty.
At this time, Xia Hua suddenly poked Suwon with her elbow, with a wicked smile on her face.
Xia Hua usually doesn't dare to provoke her own store manager like this. Except for certain things, she is sure that the store manager will not cause trouble with her.
"Manager, Chef Shinomiya is here to see you."
Fourth Palace?
Sure enough, Suwon didn't care about Xia Hua's "mistake". After setting the oven temperature, she quickly walked out of the kitchen. The person standing in front of the cashier was indeed Shinomiya.
"Sorry to disturb your work." Shinomiya was carrying a bag of fruit, "These are freshly picked fruits from the manor. They are of high quality, so I sent you some."
Freshly picked seasonal fruits in spring are still stained with morning dew. In Tokyo, fruits are always practical and valuable gifts.
Shinomiya not only runs his own restaurant, but also works as a private chef in a manor in Tokyo. Suwon knows this.
She was non-committal about this. She herself was not willing to be a personal chef and it would be more free to run her own shop. However, she would not question Shinomiya's choice.
"Thank you." After saying his thanks, Suwon's tone was still dry.
Although she kept a straight face, from Xia Hua's perspective, she could see her store manager's blush.
"Stay, stay for lunch?"
"No, I still have something to do in the store."
He just came here to give some fruit.
Even with her small expression, Mizuhara felt happy in her heart. She knew that Ristorante F and Shinomiya's French restaurant were not going well.
"By the way, what's going on with that beggar outside?"
"Hmm? I was there when I opened the door this morning."
Suwon thought that Shinomiya was concerned that the beggar was too dirty, but she knew that Shinomiya was actually a bit mysophobic.
He is very sensitive to smells. Ever since he was in school, even the slightest smell could not escape the tip of his nose. Even if he put a little hairspray of different flavors on his head, he would ban others from entering the kitchen.
"Then, should I drive him away now?"
"No, that's not what I meant. Did you even make meat sauce rice?"
"Yes, the customer ordered it wrong."
Sigong didn't reveal it, and he didn't stay long before he was ready to leave. But when he was going out, he was suddenly startled. He hadn't noticed it before, and now there was a strange smell in his nose.
He originally thought it was the stench from the beggar who hadn't bathed for a long time, but that was wrong.
That smell is not a bad smell, but a fishy smell. After noticing it, he will not be able to distinguish it wrongly, the smell of blood?
Pretending to be casual, Shinigong discovered more abnormalities. The beggar's leg was injured, with a hole, like a gunshot wound.
What kind of beggar gets gunshot wounds? Yamaguchi-gumi?
What is more dangerous than those gangs are enemies from alien planets.
Early this morning when the TAC team was inspecting various hospitals, they notified the public about the cosmonauts. Anyone who found a gunshot wound in the leg contacted the TAC team immediately.
Shinomiya's hand reached into his pants pocket. There was a mobile phone there, which the eldest lady had given him the day before yesterday. The assembly line of the factory had not yet been built, and several experimental mobile phones were produced in the laboratory. Ling also gave it to the manor.
Everyone is equipped with one.
However, Shinomiya remembered that the only numbers saved in his cell phone were the eldest.
I hope she can understand what she means and help her contact the TAC team.
Shinomiya dialed the number quietly.
Of course, it would be better if the other party did not realize that he had detected an abnormality. With a sense of luck, Shinigong walked forward as if nothing had happened.
But his luck ended there.
"You, I'm talking about you, stop."
The 'beggar' spoke in a hoarse voice. He stood up from the steps. The injury on his leg did not seem to affect his ability to move.
"What bad luck, neither me nor you. Why do you have to be so sharp?"
Shinomiya feels the same way, why is his nose so sharp?
No, if he hadn't discovered it, it would still be a very dangerous thing to let this spaceman stay in front of Suwon's store. Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem like a bad thing if he found out the identity of the spaceman.
p>
At this time, Shinomiya felt that the phone was dialed.
"What's that in your hand? Take it out!"
The alien also noticed that Shinomiya was holding the mobile phone hidden in his pocket.
A girl's voice came from the phone.
【Hello, Chef Shinomiya?】
"Communicator? Are you from the TAC team?"
Although it is backward communication technology in the eyes of aliens, according to its past understanding of this planet, such a communicator should only be available to the TAC team.
But it doesn’t matter.
It stepped forward and grabbed the phone, held it in its hand and crushed it with a gentle squeeze. The phone, which had only been out of the factory for a few days, was reduced to a handful of broken parts.
It was not that Shinomiya didn't try to resist, but the other party took out a strange thing and pointed it at him. It looked a bit like a gun, and it was obviously a weapon.
"This is a high-energy laser. You know what will happen after I pull the trigger, right? Yes, you will explode like a firework. So if I were you, I wouldn't act rashly."
"What do you want to do?"
"What are you doing? Let me think about it. Now you can step back and go back to that store."
It needs a quiet place where it won't be disturbed and where it can take care of its wounds. The TAC team's Silver Shark was not destroyed because the defense there was too tight, and there was Ace.
It wants to find a way to sneak into that scientific research center and attack it blindly, but it seems inappropriate.
Shinomiya doesn’t want to go back to Ristorante F.
Suwon is still there.
However, being held against him by the weapon, he had no chance to resist. He could only retreat step by step back to the restaurant. The spaceman followed closely, put up a sign saying it was temporarily closed and closed the door.
"Sinomong, why are you back?" Suiyuan was about to continue talking, but found that the beggar was pressing Sinomong with an unknown object, which made her instinctively feel that something was wrong.
"Suwon, take your waiters to the back kitchen, don't come near here, it's a cosmic creature!"
"To be more precise, they are from the Phaia planet." The aliens didn't mind that Shinomiya revealed his identity here, but instead reported his own family name.
"Your food is delicious, but it's a pity that I won't be able to eat it in the future." The Faia star said to Suwon, "Everyone is standing by the wall now. If anyone makes a rash move, this laser gun will make him regret it."
Faia needs some bandages to treat her wounds, and she also needs to borrow a human identity to find an opportunity to get close to the scientific research base.
It can simulate human appearance, which is not difficult.
It stared at Si Gong for a moment, and the skin on its face surged, becoming more or less similar to Si Gong.
"No, well, I need to fix the details." Faia said to herself.
"What do you want to do?"
It's a creepy feeling to watch a stranger look like you.
Faia didn't answer. It needs an Earthling's identity to hide its identity from others. As for this, the gas explosion is a good excuse.
Even if humans find any abnormalities afterward, it will have completed its mission at that time.
To be continued...
