[Comprehensive] I'm in Yokohama as a soul-saver

"Then you have good eyesight."

I calmly commented.

I began to think about whether or not to keep him in Master House.

Judging from what happened just now, although this person committed suicide and didn't speak well, the outstanding part is indeed very good, whether it is communication skills, analysis skills or observation skills are online.

Maybe add another person who is good at fooling?

As long as the ability outweighs the troubles it brings, I think a little shortcoming is still acceptable...

Damn, I really care. This guy doesn't seem to be autistic or depressed, and he looks like a guy with a lot of enthusiasm for life. Why did he commit suicide?

Thinking of this, I also asked this question:

"Why did you commit suicide?"

Osamu Dazai let out an "ah" and explained with a relaxed expression, "I just saw that the beam fits well..."

"never mind."

I interrupted his explanation after listening to the beginning, "I can still tell the truth from the lies... This is just my own question, and it's okay if I don't answer it."

"Let's do this." I had a flash of inspiration and came up with a solution, "Just use Miss Nishimura's entrustment as a... entry test, and then based on your performance in this entrustment, I will decide whether to hire you as a Full-time employees."

"Don't worry if you don't pass. I won't be in arrears as long as you complete the salary during the month of probation. I can also help you to see if there are other suitable jobs for you."

"Hmm." Osamu Dazai touched his chin, as if he had never considered failing the situation, and confirmed to me, "So as long as I pass Mochizuki-san's test, I will be a regular employee of Master House?"

"Correct."

"Okay—then I will try my best~"

No.15

"Boss, a rice bowl with red beans and natto!"

“A crab meat rice bowl!”

...In the end, after get off work, for some reason, I went to have dinner with Osamu Dazai.

Maybe this is the workplace culture. It is said that eating with the boss will help to improve the relationship in the workplace. In fact, no one will feel happy in the workplace culture.

"Natto red bean rice and crab meat rice bowl are here!" The boss wearing a turban put red bean natto rice and crab meat rice bowl in front of us from behind the counter, because I am a frequent customer of this restaurant, the boss even gave away A small dish of pickles.

The sweetness of red beans is mixed with the subtle smell of natto. The red bean and natto rice bowl in front of me is red and yellow on each side, and the color of the rice below is almost completely invisible.

"The combination of red beans and natto... I can't even imagine what it tastes like..." Dazai Osamu murmured, his eyes drifting towards me frequently, "And there is no red bean and natto rice on the menu , is it a hidden menu?"

"We didn't have this kind of combination in our store, but every time the owner of Wanshiwu came to order red bean rice and natto rice, for convenience, I directly added a red bean and natto rice bowl exclusive to the owner of Wanshiwu to the menu." The boss behind the counter explained with a smile, "Later, everyone called this set meal Mochizuki Rice Bowl."

I pretended not to hear, picked up the chopsticks and said "I'm starting" as if nothing had happened.

After hearing what the boss said, Osamu Dazai really looked for it on the menu posted on the counter, and finally found it in a small corner of the menu, "Oh, it's really hopeful, it's amazing!"

"Hahaha, but only the owner of Wanshiwu can order this set meal, and others don't want to try it just because of the combination."

"Then I want to try it next time, I think the taste will be very interesting!"

"Boss, you can actually add some sugar to the red beans next time." I swallowed a mouthful of red beans, and seriously gave my advice to the boss, "If the red beans are not sweet enough, they have no soul."

"Isn't it sweet enough? I even added a few spoonfuls of sugar to yours, Mochizuki. Is it already too sweet to be bitter?" The boss brought out a small plate of red beans from the kitchen, and took out a pair of chopsticks to taste it himself. , the eyebrows became entangled all of a sudden, "I can't add any more, because if I add it, it's dark food. Although I'm just the owner of a small restaurant, I still have dignity!"

"This, isn't this too exaggerated?" I trembled with my rice bowl in my hand, and made a little gesture with my fingers, "Just add a little bit of sugar, if you don't tell me, no one will know."

Dazai Osamu who was beside him suddenly let out a "poof" laugh.

"This doesn't count!"

The boss held his forehead helplessly and sighed, went to the back and brought out the candy box and put it on the counter, "Forget it, you can add it yourself."

happy~

Happiness is so simple~

"Boss, you are a good person!" I happily picked up the sugar box and mixed sugar into the red bean and natto rice bowl while blowing rainbow fart.

"Won't Mochizuki-san feel tired of eating like this?" Osamu Dazai watched me add sugar to the rice with his face propped up. He didn't even eat his own crab meat rice bowl, and just counted how many spoonfuls of sugar I added.

"I used to feel tired, but I won't feel tired after eating it." I replied while bibimbap, "How to say... By the way, the scientific explanation is that the taste is adaptable. If you always eat very spicy or sour Or if you eat very sweet food, you won’t think it has a strong taste, and if you eat light food at this time, you will feel tasteless.”

In fact, I was originally a salty party, but when I was wandering around and eating my last meal, only sugar could ensure sufficient energy. Coupled with the influence of a sugar-obsessed guy, I gradually became A salty and sweet omnivorous party.

But this need not be said.

"I see!" Osamu Dazai clenched his fist with his right hand and hammered the palm of his left hand, "It means that the more you are not good at it, the more you have to do it, so if you persist in it, you will become good at it if you are not good at it."

"...That's the reason." I don't quite understand why this person interpreted my words as poisonous chicken soup, "But why don't you do what you are good at, but insist on competing in what you are not good at? "

He let out a "huh" and began to bow his head in thought.

I mixed the rice and put the sugar box back, and ate my red bean and natto rice bowl.

"Speaking of which, it's rare to see Mochizuki and you come to eat with others. Is this little brother a new employee of Wanshiwu?" Now it's already past the meal time, and there are only two customers in the restaurant, Dazai and me, The boss sat behind the counter and chatted with me.

"Well, I'm too busy to be alone recently."

"Isn't this very good? It seems that Wanshiwu's business is doing well during this time." The boss said with a smile, "If it stabilizes, do you have any ideas about opening a branch? The form of Wanshiwu should be in Ikebukuro and Hakata. There is a market for it, too.”

"Forgive me about opening a branch or something. I don't have such a big ambition. I just plan to stay in Yokohama. If there is no accident, I won't go to other places." After chatting, I naturally entered the time of MADAO, "Spend money when you have it, as long as you have enough, a life of making money for the sake of making money is too sad. My creed in life is to enjoy yourself in time!"

"It's really enviable, such a young and unrestrained mentality." The boss sighed, recalling the past, "I still remember that before I got married, for several years, I lived and saved just to collect a set of genuine cards, and the salary was huge. Part of it was used to buy cards, and then just a few years ago, I finally collected a full set of cards."

.

"Oh! It's not easy. If it's so difficult to collect, that set of cards should be very precious now, right?"

"That's right, it's worth 500 million yen now."

"What about it now?"

The boss sighed, with a distant expression, "It has become my son's tutoring fee, tuition fee, store decoration fee, and various other odds and ends."

That is to say, it was sold.

Hearing this, I couldn't help sighing, "Dreams will inevitably give way to life."

The boss showed an expression of recalling the past.

"By the way, Fujita is going to be promoted to junior high school this year, right? Which school is he in?" Speaking of the boss's son, I thought that the little chubby guy should graduate from junior high school this year, so I asked casually.

"If you go straight up, you can go to Qingshi, but I want to send Fujita to a selective school. The Waseda High School is closer to home. If the country is attached, I have to live in his uncle's house. I am not very relieved." The boss's face The exhaustion and anxiety of the middle-aged people faintly emerged, "But we have to wait until we pass the academic test and the body test. There is no problem with the study test Fujita, but the body side is more difficult. Hey..."

It's such a heavy topic.

My eating speed slowed down, so I stopped my chopsticks and continued, "In the end, it's still the old problem of declining birth rate, and the new policy from above is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. In the past few years, private primary and junior high schools have been merged and abolished every year. school."

"Yeah, two more high schools have been abolished this year."

"The ones that are more stable are Waseda High School, Kokufu, Mingya, Qingshi, and Hayakawa Saki. If it doesn't work, you can also consider the school in Kanagawa next door."

"So the Tachikai High School Affiliated to Kanagawa is quite famous." The boss began to think, "But this school seems to have very high requirements for the body side. Fujita doesn't know if he can pass..."

"Okay, stop chatting with the guests, come over and cook a new pot of miso." The proprietress poked her head out from behind the curtain in the kitchen and called out to the boss.

"Come on!"

The boss responded, stopped talking and walked into the back kitchen.

After I finished the last few mouthfuls of rice, I put my chopsticks horizontally on the chopstick rest, clasped my hands together and said "Thank you for the hospitality" to the empty counter.

At the same time I put down my chopsticks, Osamu Dazai next to me also put down his chopsticks after eating.
