I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo

Ikebukuro, exit the front hall delivery station.

This is a small shop located in a remote parking lot, with a row of motorcycles neatly placed at the door.

"Brother Mitsui still looks so tough."

"Mr. Higashino, this is the brother you said you want to take care of, who has a bad brain since he was a child, and only has muscles left?"

Inside the store, a middle-aged man with a tough face and a strong figure received the two with a smile on his face.

This muscular uncle named Mitsui Atsushi is the predecessor of the Gokudo organization where Higashino Kohei belongs.

Currently, as the stationmaster who contracted this delivery station, he is responsible for delivering food for Japan's largest delivery website "Chumaekan".

As Japan's largest food delivery ordering website, Chuqiankan has cooperated with tens of thousands of stores in Japan. The delivery products range from various foods and beverages to rice, frozen products, condiments, fruits and meat to adult products.

"Brother Mitsui, I am Sousuke Araki who came for the interview today, it's the first time we meet, please take care of me!"

Although he was very unhappy with the description of "not good brains, only muscles left", Araki Sousuke still bowed to the other party in a calm manner like a younger brother of the Yakuza organization.

"Araki-kun looks very energetic. I don't need to use the violent group... Is there a locomotive for free? How about the technology?"

Atsushi Mitsui looked at Sousuke Araki, and seemed to be satisfied with his physique.

"I have a permit for a large two-wheeled vehicle... If you have riding skills...you'll know if you try it..."

Speaking of this topic, Araki Sosuke had a wicked smile on his lips.

"Hey, don't mess around."

Seeing his expression, Higashino Kohei had a bad feeling.

ten minutes later.

"Boom boom boom... boom boom boom... woo~~~"

"Okay, okay, it's okay...my delivery motorcycle can't stand your toss."

Atsushi Mitsui shouted profusely to stop Araki Sousuke's "performance".

Just now this kid asked him for the keys to his motorcycle, and he immediately started burning tires, drifting in situ, flicking his tail, and cocking his head in the parking lot, attracting many passers-by to watch like a street performer, and there were even people standing beside him Applause.

"You really recommended me an incredible guy..."

Looking distressed at the burnt tires, Mitsui Atsushi complained to Higashino Kohei.

Complaints are complaints. From his perspective, it is natural to see that Araki Sousuke's motorcycle skills are "professional".

"Just kidding, this guy is the veteran of the phoenix gang."

Higashino Xinghei couldn't laugh or cry.

The job he recommended to Sousuke Araki, to put it bluntly, was to deliver food.

"Araki-kun, do you know what is the next rising industry in Japan?"

Back in the office, Atsushi Mitsui, who had his back to Sousuke Araki, started his speech under the backlight.

"Could it be... a VR action movie with matching dolls?"

"Wrong! It's the mobile food delivery industry. Think about it, with the acceleration of the pace of life, the demand for food delivery in urban areas is rising linearly, and we, as the children of destiny, came into being under the tide of this era."

"For takeaway, I remember you can order it on Uber..."

Higashino Kohei interrupted.

UBER originally entered Japan as a taxi-hailing software, but after its performance suffered from Waterloo, it has a second spring on the pioneered food delivery platform UBER EATS.

As a national food delivery software known as "a bicycle can deliver food", anyone can receive orders on it and earn food delivery fees.

"Don't compare us with those old men who walk to deliver food, we are professionals!"

Hearing "UBER", Atsushi Mitsui immediately showed disdain.

Recently, many white-collar workers also use Uber software to deliver food after get off work in order to exercise by bicycle.

The most exaggerated thing is that many people over the age of 70 do not even ride bicycles in line with the principle of physical exercise, and start the road of "Buddhist food delivery" on the UBER platform by walking.

It is often seen that the old man is strolling around the park slowly carrying the meals to be given to the guests.

This has also led to the slow speed of food delivery on the UBER platform. Two hours after placing an order, an elderly delivery man who is older than your grandfather knocks on your door tremblingly carrying a cold meal. routine.

In contrast, the delivery staff in the front hall are more professional and efficient, and the delivery fee is naturally higher.

"After completing these forms, you will officially become a glorious member of the Chuqiankan Ikebukuro delivery station! You can't lose to those half-collar white-collar workers who ride bicycles and the old men who walk to deliver food!"

After introducing the working hours and benefits, Atsushi Mitsui dragged Sosuke Araki to go through the entry procedures without hesitation.

Araki Sousuke is also very satisfied with this job.

The income is higher than that of convenience stores, and the time is free. You only need to run for a basic amount of time every day, and the rest of the time depends on your mood and more pay for more work.

"Araki-kun, this is your employee ID number, just bind it to your mobile APP."

After filling out the entry documents, Atsushi Mitsui took out a job number plate with "9527" printed on it and gave it to Sousuke Araki, and then began to teach him how to use the mobile app to receive orders.

After learning to take orders, Mitsui Atsushi took him to the parking lot to choose a car.

When delivering food, you must wear the uniform of the front hall and use the uniformly equipped motorcycle.

In addition to the reason for controlling fuel consumption, the company's motorcycle insurance is quite high.

"Hey, this kind of old motorcycle can't pick up the speed at all... Can't you ride my Warring States Warrior?"

Looking at the row of "old, weak, sick and disabled" locomotives, Sousuke Araki showed a disgusted expression.

"The company has regulations, and in order to save costs, we must only use small-displacement locomotives for distribution."

"Wait... what is that one?"

Inadvertently, Sousuke Araki glanced at a dusty locomotive in the corner.

It was a large-displacement heavy locomotive with pure black paint, giant tires, and exaggerated streamlined decoration.

He who loves cars like his life can't take his eyes off at all.

"Oh, this one, it's the locomotive 'Ghost Jet' that was recently customized in conjunction with the anime special drama 'Ghost Rider'. It's the only heavy locomotive in the shop."

Mitsui Atsushi introduced it seriously.

"There are still good ones, and they look pretty handsome. Can I use this one?"

Araki Sousuke got on the bike and tried it out, and immediately fell in love with the bike. It felt more ferocious than his Sengoku warriors.

"Are you sure? If you want to ride this 'Ghost Jet', it's not impossible..."

Atsushi Mitsui confirmed to him repeatedly: "But the company has some very troublesome regulations that don't add money, and everyone else avoids it. Once you choose, you can't go back on it."

"A real man must ride the wildest horse. I can't compromise on this alone."

Pulling up his short hair handsomely, Araki Sousuke nodded seriously.
