Chapter 12 First Arrival to the Island Country
Tang Lei bought an economy class air ticket, but for Tang Lei, who has an average figure, the economy class seat is still a bit small for him.
Anyone who is sitting next to you with a 300-pound fat man will feel crowded, because the flesh on the fat man next to you will inexplicably come to your seat range!
Especially Tang Lei’s muscles are now sore, with his ankles and soles!
Moreover, Tang Lei's seat was still against the window! His legs couldn't be straightened!
Tang Lei also wanted to buy a business car or first-class air ticket, but he looked at his bank card balance and finally gave up when booking the air ticket.
After the plane took off smoothly, Tang Lei and the beautiful Asian flight attendant asked for a blanket and began to make up for the sleep. Tang Lei was too tired and sleepy!
I don't know how long it took, Tang Lei, who was confused, seemed to feel the plane landing. He was a little surprised that he had just slept at the destination.
However, Tang Lei only realized after he was completely awake that the plane had not arrived at the island country yet, but was refueling at the airport of the third country.
The plane Tang Lei took off again soon, and the next time he landed, it would be the island country.
The next morning at 7 o'clock.
The plane Tang Lei was on arrived at Narita International Airport at the right time.
Narita International Airport is located in Narita City, the island country, and the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant that Tang Lei is going to is located in Okuma Town, Fukushima Prefecture. The distance between the two is about 200 kilometers.
After getting off the plane, Tang Lei went straight to the airport subway station and prepared to take the subway to Fukushima.
Tang Lei, who is familiar with the domestic subway operation mode, was completely lost after coming to RB's subway station. Although Tang Lei learned island language with Yiyi's help, he was the first time he came to the island country.
Fortunately, Yiyi has planned the route for Tang Lei, which has saved him a lot of trouble.
Tang Lei spent three hours under Yiyi's navigation and multiplied several types of rail transit from the island country, Tang Lei finally came to the door of the hotel he booked.
Tang Lei originally wanted to rent a car directly, but when Tang Lei made an appointment online, the other party said that his domestic driver's license could not be used in the island country. He had to take the domestic driver's license and apply for a temporary driver's license from the island country before he could rent a car.
Tang Lei did not have that free time? He didn’t really come to travel!
Even if you want to visit the island country, you will be done after you have done your business.
"This is my passport, I have made an appointment with a room." Tang Lei said to the island girl at the front desk in island language.
"Okay, please wait~" the island girl at the front desk of the hotel replied in a soft voice.
"Mr. Tang Lei, your room number is 1028. This is your room card. I wish you a happy stay!" said a girl from the front desk in the island country with a smile.
The hotel that Tang Lei booked is a three-star hotel, which costs about 350 yuan per night, which is also the upper limit that Tang Lei can afford.
Taking the elevator, Tang Lei came to the door of the booked room and swiped his card to enter.
The room that Tang Lei booked is about 20 square meters, with a bathroom and a bedroom, and there is no reception area. What Tang Lei is more satisfied with is that there is a window with curtains on the wall beside the bed.
Tang Lei came to the bed, put down his backpack, and threw himself onto the bed again.
"Oh! It's still comfortable in the bed. Yiyi, don't wake me up anymore. I'm going to sleep until I wake up naturally!" Tang Lei lay on the bed, buried his head on the quilt, his face full of comfort.
Tang Lei lay on the bed and rested for a while, then stood up reluctantly and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Tang Lei thinks that the biggest difference between RB Hotel and domestic hotels is that there is a bathtub in the bathroom.
You should know that in China, rooms with bathtubs are at least equipped in four-star hotels, and the price of a room for one night is not cheap.
The bathtub in the bathroom surprised Tang Lei. After filling the bathtub with hot water, Tang Lei couldn't wait to lie in.
Tang Lei, whose whole body was soaked in hot water, stretched his eyebrows and couldn't help but moan, especially after lying in, the soreness of Tang Lei's thigh muscles and calf was relieved.
Happy time is always short!
After the water in the bathtub was so cold that Tang Lei felt uncomfortable, he got up from the bathtub, rinsed it with a shower, wiped it dry, and walked out of the bathroom.
Tang Lei returned to the bedroom and opened the curtains of the window beside the bed.
"The people of this island have a problem with their brains. If there is no window, your mother will put the curtains on it!" Tang Lei cursed at the wall behind the curtains being opened in surprise.
"Your mom is so stupid!"
Tang Lei cursed again before putting on his clothes and getting out of the hotel to find something to fill his stomach. Tang Lei hasn't eaten since he got off the plane.
Tang Lei walked on the street near the hotel. The first feeling that the street here gave him was narrow!
In domestic cities, even if it is not a main road, two-lane and four-lane are common in both directions. In Fukushima Prefecture, the street where Tang Lei walks is actually a two-way single-lane. You must know that Tang Lei is now on the main road in Fukushima Prefecture!
Tang Lei found a small store and walked in. The first feeling he felt was still narrow!
A long classic Japanese bar divides the space in the front half of the store into two. The chef cooks meals inside the bar, and there are several high stools scattered outside the bar.
There were not many customers in the store at this time. After Tang Lei found an empty seat and sat down, the chef at the bar handed over a menu to Tang Lei.
The restaurant that Tang Lei chose is a specialty meal of Fukushima Prefecture, which mainly sells fried pork chop rice. Tang Lei looked at the seductive pictures on the menu and he was about to try it.
Finally, Tang Lei ordered the best-known fried pork chop rice in the store with the recommendation of the chef in the small shop.
When Tang Lei was in China, he only visited Japanese restaurants once or twice, and the style was different from Tang Lei’s current small shops.
Tang Lei looked at the chef with some novelty and made dishes on the spot in front of him.
At first, Tang Lei thought that the protagonist of this fried pork chop rice, as the name suggests, must be pork chops. The chef wrapped the marinated pork chops, put some flour or bread crumbs, and then fryed them in the oil pan. After the fried, put them on the plate and add some rice. The steps should be similar to the domestic rice bowl.
But after Tang Lei saw the chef's operation at the bar, he knew that he had been thinking a little simple.
The chef opposite Tang Lei first took out a piece of pork chop two centimeters thick and about six centimeters in diameter under the bar, put it on the chopping board and removed the surrounding fat meat, sprinkled with salt and some seasonings, and started to beat it repeatedly.
The chef in the bar stopped beating until the pork chop with a diameter of about six centimeters was beaten to about 10 centimeters.
Afterwards, Tang Lei saw that the chef had sprinkled some seasonings on the pork chops, he placed the pork chops aside and began to process other side dishes.
The chef first mixed the eggs and flour into a batter, then cut them into tomatoes, cabbage, RB natto and some other things Tang Lei didn't know to mix into a sauce.
...
After 15 minutes, the chef prepared the fried pork chop rice.
The golden pork chops were drizzled with a thick layer of black sauce, decorated with candy eggs, and the vegetables that the chef had just cut and scalded with boiling water were placed around them. Rice was placed under the pork chops. A plate of fried pork chops that made Tang Lei's appetite greatly increase was handed to Tang Lei.
Tang Lei couldn't wait to pick up the pork chop with chopsticks and take a bite!
The pork chops are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Because the chef's previous pounding makes the pork chops more flavorful. Plus the sauce on the surface of the pork chops, it's a perfect match!
"It's delicious!" Tang Lei praised in his heart.
Then, Tang Lei began to swallow the storm of the wind and the clouds.
Tang Lei’s fried pork chop rice is about RMB 100. In Tang Lei’s opinion, the portion is a bit small and a little expensive, but in terms of taste, Tang Lei feels that this wave is not a loss.
After eating pork chop rice and paying the bill with the boss, Tang Lei left the shop. He was still preparing to go to the police department of the island country to apply for an island country's driver's license. After all, what Tang Lei has to do is really inconvenient without a car.
Tang Lei habitually summoned an island taxi on the side of the road, told the driver where he was going, and sat in the car and began to enjoy the street view.
Suddenly, Tang Lei saw something interesting, turned to the driver and asked in island language: "Are we just passing by a street in Kamu Town?"
The driver replied in surprise: "Yes! Sir, have you been to Fukushima Prefecture for the first time?"
Tang Lei nodded and stopped answering.
"You can come and have a look at it if you have nothing to do in the evening~" Tang Lei thought to himself.
About seven or eight minutes later, the island country's taxi stopped at the entrance of the Fukushima County Police Department. Tang Lei paid the fare with some pain and walked towards the police department.
Tang Lei followed the instructions and came to the counter where the police department applied for a foreign driver's license. The male staff at the counter bowed 90 degrees to receive Tang Lei.
After sitting down, Tang Lei handed his relevant documents to the staff, and then said to the staff in fluent island language: "Please help me deal with it as soon as possible, thank you!"
The male staff immediately replied:
"Hi! Please wait."
Tang Lei observed the police department of the island country while the staff helped him complete the procedures.
Tang Lei felt that this police department was more like a bank store in a large domestic city. However, the staff here did not sit behind the bulletproof glass like the staff of the bank.
He even saw a staff member wearing a police department uniform coming out to serve a man in a suit, which was unheard of in Tang Lei!
But Tang Lei doesn't like this. In his heart, the profession of police is full of friendship and majesty, and he must have an image of shocking the slut in public!
Instead of being as humble as Tang Lei sees now
Perhaps it was because of the education that Tang Lei received that made him have this kind of thinking!
Just like the police department staff bowed to him 90 degrees just now, Tang Lei felt strange.
in the country, 90 degrees bowing is for the deceased!
Tang Lei didn't want to be so young, so he was bowed 90 degrees by others!
"Mr. Tang Lei, this is your review and approval form. You need to take this review and approval form to take the exam. After the exam is passed, the driver's license will be issued to you by the examiner." The male staff stood up and said politely. (There are many procedures for changing driver's licenses in RB, and the words are too sluggish. I won't write them out one by one here. Just go to Baidu if you want to know the process.)
