I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo

"...Although miso soup can be added after drinking, but you need to ask other waiters to help, which will waste a lot of time and lead to a direct penalty..."

"Let's go back a minute and see what happened to that bowl of miso soup?"

The host played back the nonexistent video to a minute ago.

Sousuke Araki, who was devouring the noodles in a storm, secretly reached out from below to take the miso soup in Higashino Kohei's hand in a very natural posture, and drank it with his head raised before he could notice it.

"So, so it turns out, it is indeed the 'hungry ghost's stick' to maintain a winning streak, but unknowingly, it used the secret technique [drinking other people's soup so that others have no soup to drink]..."

"Hmph, war is cruel and merciless, there is no such thing as despicable or despicable..."

Araki Sosuke responded to the vicious look from his opponent with a sinister smile.

"In that case, I want to drink yours too..."

Higashino Kohei looked around, as if he was about to take away the bowl of miso soup that belonged to Sousuke Araki.

Immediately, his expression became desperate and empty, and he pointed at Araki Sousuke tremblingly: "As expected, you have planned all this a long time ago... Besides, are you so cruel to yourself..."

"A despicable dog that is only fit to lie on the ground wants to rush to the sky where the king soars. Don't be self-righteous, Miscellaneous! From the beginning, I didn't have any miso soup at all..."

Araki Sousuke turned his head proudly like an emperor, continued to eat the noodles in the bowl, and never looked at Higashino Kohei again.

"puff……"

Higashino Kohei, who was sitting opposite him, couldn't resist the attack of the soba noodles anymore after these words, and sprayed all the noodles in his mouth back into the bowl...

The loser is not qualified to be stared at by the king.

"... Higashino, who was emptied of miso soup by the 'Hungry Ghost Stick', lost the foul because he spat the noodles back into the bowl! What a pity...Looking at this, the winner of this match will be... Wait... what did I see, what happened?"

Ryoma seemed to have seen something incredible before host two.

"What did I miss, the '20 Centimeters Per Second' contestant, when did he catch up... Can you catch up to this level just by relying on the gap between two people drinking soup?"

Siena, who was sitting in the corner, was eating soba noodles leisurely, and the red bowls piled up in front of him, silently, already had as many as Araki Sousuke.

Only Kotori Yumayumi and Mochizuki Ayano knew that just before Higashino Kohei broke through 200 bowls, a golden spiritual power wrapped around Siena.

"Is this the holy light technique of the Holy See?"

Kotori Yumayu looked curiously at the faint golden light on Siena's body.

The holy light technique is the general term for the Holy See's techniques.

Driven by spiritual power, depending on the user's cultivation direction, beliefs, and natural talents, Holy Light can be used in a variety of ways.

Of course, the most common types are blessing, baptism and healing.

"Uncle Siena's holy light technique has a special purpose...Let's say it's physical body strengthening...It seems that he's starting to take it seriously."

Mochizuki Ayano leaned close to her ear and started whispering.

The black-robed priest wrapped in the holy light just ate the soba noodles in his bowl as if in a bottomless pit. Tied the number of bowls.

It seems that his holy light technique can greatly strengthen the whole body including the digestive organs.

"Hey, the challenger this time is quite strong. The 'Hungry Ghost Stick' has met his opponent! The limit of a normal adult man is about 250 bowls. What kind of anxious battle will the two of them who are about to break through the critical point face?" Woolen cloth?"

"Hai, shivering."

With Granny Yudou's slogan and the stormy wind that the two refused to give in to each other, the "hill" formed by stacking red bowls became more and more spectacular.

"Breakthrough, the two broke through 250 bowls at the same time, after that, it's a world of perseverance!"

"Hmph, you are so strong that you are crazy, '20 centimeters per second'..."

Inhaling soba noodles, Araki Sousuke said with ease.

"Please don't casually give others nicknames of unknown meaning."

Mochizuki Ayano complained on the side.

You are even more perverted with the physical force of the Holy Light.

"I admit that I underestimated you before, so I dealt with that guy Xingping first... Dreams are lofty, and he is determined to dominate. This enthusiasm is indeed worthy of praise. But soldiers, do you understand? The so-called dream will eventually come true. There is a day to wake up."

Speaking of lines with unknown meaning, Araki Sousuke's whole body's momentum changed.

He suddenly slapped the chopsticks on the table vigorously, took the bowl of Koto Yumaumi from the side, and placed it in front of him.

Granny Yudou at the side began to pour soba noodles into the two bowls in front of him at the same time with great tacit understanding.

"Teacher Araki..."

The bowl he used was suddenly snatched away, and Xiaotiao Yumaumi's face blushed brightly.

"'Hungry Ghost's Stick' seems to be ready to defeat the opponent with one blow, but actually eats noodles with two bowls at the same time? It seems that he has retained his strength before..."

Under the surprised eyes of everyone, Araki Sousuke quickly stretched out and licked his tongue, and even ate soba noodles from two bowls at the same time.

"Sooooooooooooooooo..."

The most frightening thing is that he didn't use chopsticks.

"No, it's not just as simple as using two bowls at the same time! It's terrifying. After the 'Hungry Ghost Stick' abandoned his chopsticks, he was able to suck up the noodle ball in the bowl with only the strong suction of his lips and the nimble high-speed movement of the tip of his tongue. ...even the soup inside the noodles can't escape his suction which creates a short-lived vacuum zone, comparable to Dyson's... such a terrible ventriloquism, who can resist it?"

At the same time, "The Lost Dog" Higashino Kohei was also stunned by the scene in front of him.

"This guy, when did he become so strong... Is this the highest state of chopsticks in the legend, no chopsticks in hand, but chopsticks in heart?"

When everyone was amazed by Araki Sousuke's astonishing move, Siena on the opposite side was not affected by the opponent's sudden speed increase, and was still eating noodles in his bowl in a leisurely manner with an expression of enjoyment.

"'Hungry ghost's stick' has already broken through 300 bowls and entered the unknown territory by virtue of the profound meaning [True Empty Suction] and [Double Dragon Exploration]! It seems that his opponent tonight seems to be only him by myself..."

After arriving at 300 bowls, Araki Sousuke's speed faltered slightly, and his stomach felt bloated.

He then showed a lonely smile.

"Really, is this the price of rashly taking out the failed dog?"

The large amount of miso soup that he forcibly drank in order to solve Higashino Kohei has fermented in his stomach at this moment, making the eaten dough more inflated and constantly encroaching on the little space left in his stomach.

"Just when the 'Hungry Ghost Stick' slowed down for some reason, the '20 Centimeters Per Second' player also broke through the 300 bowl mark, maintaining the same eating rhythm as at the beginning, and closing the gap with all his strength. Chocolate balls have the same strength as an epee without a front, and a skill that doesn't work, it's too scary!"

"Bastard, Zongsuke, you are the man who defeated me and came here, you can't lose to others!!!"

Higashino Kohei on the side also let out an unwilling cry.

"Hey, I finally got here, how can I stop so easily...My stomach, squeeze out a little more space..."

Araki Sousuke picked up the bowl tremblingly, supported it with willpower, and started smoking soba noodles again.

As his momentum condensed and his face returned to calm, he entered a mysterious realm.

It seems that the movement is not as fast as before, but the soba noodles in the two bowls are quickly eliminated in a very rhythmic and methodical manner.

"Oh hehehe, it's been a long time since I've seen the realm of 'clear face and heart'... Let me see where your limit is..."

Seeing the mysterious aura on his body, Granny Yudou, who was calm and composed at the side, also changed slightly, and accelerated the movement of feeding the two of them at the same time.

"Hey, kid, you've got some tricks. I thought it was over... As a spirit remover, if I lose to you here, what face will I have to go to heaven to meet Big Sister Kino?"

Sensing Araki Sousuke's strong fighting spirit, Siena, who has always been unhurried, accelerated the action at hand for the first time.

The more intense holy light surged towards his stomach in his body, focusing on improving his peristaltic ability.

"Oh, it seems that in response to the fighting spirit of the 'Hungry Ghost', the '20 Centimeters per Second' contestant increased his speed for the first time..."

"This guy actually forced Uncle Siena to this point... But why, I think the most terrifying thing is Granny Yudou..."

Looking at Granny Yudou, who faced the two people who were accelerating wildly, without changing her face, calmly maintaining the precise and high-speed rhythm of adding face, Mochizuki Ayano left a drop of sweat on her forehead.

Is this the legendary Japanese craftsmanship?

"Both of them break through 450 bowls!!! Is this really something humans can do? Are you sure you don't want to call an ambulance to induce vomiting?"

As the empty wooden bowls continued to pile up, Zongsuke Araki led Siena with a subtle gap, breaking through the 450 bowl mark one after the other.

Araki Sousuke's movements slowed down significantly, and there were more and more beads of sweat on his forehead.

He no longer dared to swallow the noodles without chewing them like before. With the reduced stomach space, the chewed noodles would give him more opportunities to compress.

And Siena, which is closely behind, is supposed to be more comfortable in terms of digestion efficiency and stomach space.

But judging by his expression, he was not as relaxed as he was at the beginning, and seemed to be reaching his limit.

Is it because of the excessive consumption of spiritual power in the body?

"Oh... breaking through the 500 bowl! The movements of the two contestants stopped at the same time... Is this the end?"

After eating the 500th bowl, the movements of both of them obviously stagnated.

"Asshole, Araki... cheer me up, what's the point of losing to foreigners in such a traditional event?"

"Cough...impossible...give...swallow it for me!!!"

The blue veins on Araki Sousuke's forehead exploded, trying to forcefully swallow the noodles in his mouth.

"Teacher Araki... don't force it, it will be troublesome if you eat bad stomach..."

Kotori Yumasumi looked worriedly at Araki Sousuke beside him, and subconsciously pulled his cuff.

At this moment, the two of them were relying entirely on their willpower, and they were both devouring the soba noodles in the bowl at a rather slow pace.

Being pulled by her like this, the state of "clear face and heart" was broken, and the balance of victory began to tilt.

"Cough, cough... poof... I... no... I can't do it."

As the noodles spurted out of Araki Sousuke's nostrils, he quickly put the lid on his bowl, preventing Granny Yudou from adding noodles, and fell to the ground first to surrender.

"Hey...Actually, I can't eat anymore..."

Seeing Araki Sousuke's "spray noodles" admit defeat, Siena, who only ate one more bowl than him, quickly covered the bowl in his hand.

"What a wonderful game!! Then I declare that the winner with a one-bowl advantage is the '20 Centimeters per Second' Mr. Siena who has devoured the entire 521 bowls!"

The guests who were watching at the side at some point also applauded.

"So, here comes the problem..."

Watching the boring game finally come to an end, Mochizuki Lingnai sighed: "Who will be responsible for eating the pile of small dishes left on the table?"

The pile of exquisite food left on the table, she and Yumaumi Kotori plus Ryoma before Erqian are absolutely indestructible.

"Sorry, please forgive me, if you eat it again, you will really go to the hospital..."

"Boss, please pack..."

After a while, Granny Yudou and a male shop assistant walked over calmly.

In addition to a bunch of packing boxes, the two also brought several souvenirs.

"This is...the knot rope? Do we have any noodles that we haven't eaten?"

Kou Yumaumi asked curiously as she looked at the small and cute knot in her hand.

"This is Iwate's specialty knotting rope. Although it is not a valuable item, it is said to be very effective... Anyway, these three guys eat several times as much as an ordinary person, so I will give you one for each of you."

Granny Yudou said nonchalantly.

In Japanese, "knot" and "Chanling" are homonyms, and the god of "Chenling" is one of the three gods of good fortune in Japan.

Therefore, the knot is regarded as the work of God, symbolizing the maintenance of spirit and body, the connection of people and the flow of time.

"Oh? Has this kind of souvenir been added recently..."

"Ara... Araki-sensei!"

Just when Araki Sousuke was clutching his stomach and curiously looking at the knot in his hand, Kotori Yumayuki stopped him in a low voice with a flushed face, and respectfully handed out the knot in his hand with both hands.

"...I...I like the color of the one in your hand... Ma... Please exchange it with me!"

This sentence seemed to have exhausted all the strength of Xiaotori Yumaumi, and when she finished speaking, her whole head was buried in her chest.

"Hmm, so you like green, and I just don't like this color...then I'll change it with you..."

Saying so, Araki Sousuke replaced the green knot in his hand with the opponent's red knot.

"Thank you...thank you, I will definitely keep it safe!"

Tying the knot that Araki Sousuke handed over to the end of her hair, Kotori Yumasumi secretly smiled.

"Here...here are the certificates of the three of you. Congratulations for being the second and third player in Yokohama's history...One, two, three, eggplant!"

Several people surrounded three weak-looking "contestants" holding "520", "521" and "151", and took a group photo with the help of the waiter.

As the second and third in history, this photo will naturally be hung in a conspicuous place in the store.

"Is the 521 Bowl only the second place? Then the first place is..."

Seeing the clerk stepping on the ladder and pasting the group photo on the upper left corner of the photo wall, Mochizuki Ling Nai looked over there curiously.

"The first place, I remember it was a foreign girl full of energy...Twenty years have passed in a blink of an eye, right?"

Granny Yudou, who was standing aside, looked at Siena with some regret.

Mochizuki Ling Nai's eyes, following the clerk's movements, stayed on the top left photo.

"This... this is..."

Seeing the person in the photo clearly, she covered her mouth in surprise.

Big crystal tears slid down her cheeks from her strange-colored pupils.

"Well, indeed, it's been twenty years...Although I have been working hard to become stronger, in various senses, I still haven't been able to catch up with Big Sister's footsteps."

Looking at the photo in the upper left corner, Siena smiled reminiscently, and then glanced thoughtfully at Sousuke Araki standing at the door.

In the middle of that slightly yellowed photo is a youthful and energetic blonde girl.

She grinned brightly and strangled two pale and pained teenagers with her hands, one left and one right.

On the left and right are the black boy who can only see the whites of his eyes and teeth clearly, and the Japanese boy with messy hair and black-rimmed glasses.

The "Certificate" in the hands of the three people read "310", "570" and "75" from left to right.
