Chapter 675: Shabby Eatery

“I am outside your place.”

“Wait a moment. I will be out soon.”

“Do you want to eat before we leave?”

“Oh? Do you know a good restaurant that opens this early?”

“Leave everything to me.”

“By the way, is Mashiro-san’s friend going to join us?”

“She is beside me now.”

“…you haven’t done anything to her, right?”

“Can you at least believe the man that you love?”

“I know you well because I love you.”

“I am hurt.”

“I will take care of that later. By the way, where are we going to eat?”

Was the damage to his heart less important than the food that they were going to eat in the early morning?

He felt Yukinoshita was quite cruel, but he loved her, and unless she kissed him, he wouldn’t forgive her.

They talked for a while before they finished their conversation.

“…who is that?” When they finished their talk, Rita couldn’t help but ask in a complicated mood. She felt that this guy was like a ninja since he could disappear anytime he wanted to. When he left suddenly, it made her confused since one girl would also disappear along with his disappearance, and she wondered what to do, but then again. He appeared again after an hour, leaving the girls resting in their room.

She wanted to catch him red-handed, yet she couldn’t. He was like an eel, even though his thing was like an anaconda.

“My ex-fiancee.”

“…ex-fiancee?” She was dumbfounded. “Why is it an ex-fiancee?”

“It’s a family problem, but she is still my woman now.”

“….” Rita.

“By the way, sit on the back.”

“….” Rita stared at him with a hateful expression, but she followed his words and sat on the back while looking at the apartment building curiously since she wanted to see his ex-fiancee.

‘Gorgeous…’

She had to say that Yukinoshita was beautiful.

Was this Japanese beauty?

These were the only words that could be described by her when she saw Yukinoshita.

Yukinoshita didn’t see Rita’s stare since she only focused on him. “Sorry to make you wait.”

“It’s okay.”

Yukinoshita showed a gentle smile before she sat on the passenger seat next to him naturally, but then she noticed Rita, who was sitting in the back seat.

The two stared at each other and admired each other’s beauty for a while.

“Hello, are you Rita Ainsworth? My name is Yukinoshita Yukino. I have heard back from Shishio. I hope that he doesn’t trouble you.”

“Hello, Yukinoshita-san. Yes, you don’t need to worry. Your man, take care of me well.” Rita glanced at Shishio with a teasing gaze, trying to cause trouble for him, but she didn’t expect Yukinoshita’s response was quite calm.

“It’s not surprising. You’re beautiful. When he saw you, his lower body must get control of him.”

“…..” Shishio and Rita.

“Cough! Cough!”

Shishio coughed and said, “How about we eat now? Is there something that you want to eat?”

Yukinoshita thought for a moment and asked, “What do you plan to eat?”

“I am in the mood for something heavy, so rice is better.”

“Then, let’s get something with rice.” Yukinoshita looked at Rita and asked, “Are you okay with that, Ainsworth-san?”

“You can call me Rita, Yukinoshita-san,” Rita said with a gentle and feminine smile. “Yes, I don’t mind.” Still, even if Yukinoshita was cold, she could see how gentle she was toward Shishio, which made him wonder whether something even more special that she didn’t know made all the girls in his surroundings fall for him.

“Then, Rita-san.” Yukinoshita nodded.

The two of them could tell that they were similar to each other. They came from a good family and received an education on their etiquette, which made them somehow could understand each other with a single glance.

“So where are we going? It’s still early, right? Is there a store that opens so early in the morning?”

“There is, but the place is a bit unique.”

“Then, let’s go there.”

“You are not going to ask me more questions?”

“Even if there is trouble, I know you can protect me, right?” Yukinoshita said with a gentle smile.

“….”

Even if this girl’s body was flat, he had to say he loved her so much. He wrapped his hand around her shoulder, pulled her closer, and kissed her forehead.

Yukinoshsita blushed and lightly tapped his chest. “There’s someone beside us.”

“I know. I know.”

“…..” Rita.

“Okay. Let’s go now. I am already hungry.”

Neither of them had breakfast.

Shishio and Yukinoshita planned to shoot a movie, and they knew they needed a lot of energy, so a good breakfast was necessary.

In the car, Yukinoshita and Rita talked to each other, so they could get to know each other. After all, they were curious about each other.

Rita was Shiina’s friend, and Yukinoshita had heard that Rita came to bring Shiina back, which made her strange when she saw how amiable her relationship with Shishio was.

On the other hand, Rita was curious about Yukinoshsita, who was also Shishio’s ex-fiancee.

Yet as they talked, they were dumbfounded when they saw where Shishio had brought them.

“Where are we?”

“It’s a market for vegetables and fruit.”

“Do you want us to eat vegetables?” Rita was speechless, especially when she saw a truck that kept moving to the market one after another.

“Do you want to eat vegetables?”

“…I don’t mind, but do you think I am a horse or a cow that eats a vegetable raw, whole, and without being cleaned?”

“No.”

“Then?”

“I have never said that we’re going to eat on the market, but we’re going to the restaurant on the market.”

“Oh!” Yukinoshita quickly realized and asked, “Are we going to eat at the place where the workers in this market eat?”

“You’re right.”

“Is it delicious?” Rita hesitated.

“There is a market here. Naturally, the ingredients are fresh.”

“Fresh…” 2x

This one word quickly caught the interest of the two of them.

“Come on.” He held the hands of two girls naturally.

“…..” Yukinoshita and Rita were speechless, but they didn’t let him go since they would be lying if they didn’t feel nervous.

“Please be careful of the truck.”

“Thank you.” He thanked the security guard and walked together with the two girls to the market.

However, the security guard of the market looked at the three weirdly when wondering whether a vegetable market had become a new dating spot.

Also, didn’t that young man hold the hands of the girls at the same time?

He let out a long sigh and felt that his sanity was challenged.

Leaving the security guard aside, Yukinoshita and Rita became curious about the market as they walked.

“Do you want to check the market?”

“Is that okay?”

“Let’s do it after we eat. I am hungry.”

“That’s true.”

They agreed before he led them to the restaurant he planned to bring them to.

“Iseya Eatery?”

“Is this the place?” Rita frowned since this place was too shabby!

The place was old, and the store was rather dark, which gave a gloomy feeling.

Yet, unlike Rita, Yukinoshita could see how well this store was.

“Yes, this is the place.” Shishio nodded.

“Are you sure to eat in this place?” Rita asked once again.

“Yes.”

“….” Rita.

“Don’t compare this place to a fancy cafe you usually visit. This is a place for the workers in this market to eat. Even if the place is old, you can see how clean the sign and the shop curtain are, showing how the owner keeps the restaurant in good condition. I won’t be surprised if this restaurant has been in the hands of several generations of families.”

“Really?” Rita was dumbfounded.

“Don’t underestimate the small store and family business in this country. You should know the oldest business in the world is from this country,” Yukinoshita said.

“…..” Rita.

“Okay, let’s go.”

While Yukinoshita nodded, Rita sighed and helplessly followed.

When the three entered, there were few people inside, but it was normal since most workers had finished their breakfast during this time, leaving only a few people.

However, the three quickly attracted everyone’s attention since they were all beautiful and handsome.

“Welcome!” The female clerk greeted them with a smile, and her eyes brightened when she saw Shishio. “Please sit at this table.”

The three nodded and sat on the table naturally.

Still, Rita sat alone while Yukinoshita sat on Shishio’s side. She looked around with a suspicious gaze and thought that this place was really shabby, which made her sigh.

“Excuse me, which do you prefer, hot tea or water?” The clerk asked gently.

However, Rita had to say the service was good.

“Water,” Shishio said.

“Hot tea, please,” Yukinoshita said.

“I want water, too,” Rita said.

As the clerk went to pick up their water and hot tea, they looked around curiously. The first thing that attracted their attention was the conversation that they couldn’t understand, but they could tell that most of the people there were a vegetable seller or the person who worked in this market. The second thing was the number of calendars was too much, which made them wonder why they kept so many of them.

While they were in their thoughts, the clerk came and brought their water and hot tea.

“That one is our regular menu. On the blackboard is our daily special.” The clerk kindly explained to all of them. “If you have made your decision, call me.”

“Yes, thank you.”

The clerk nodded with a sweet smile and then left.

“…”

“What?”

Shishio looked at Rita and Yukinoshita, who stared at him in silence.

“Nothing.” 2x

The two sighed and thought that this charm was so incredible that the housewife clerk in this restaurant seemed to be charmed by him instantly.

“Is there something that you want to eat?” Shishio looked at Rita.

“Even if you say that… I don’t know what is written there.” Rita sighed. She might be able to talk in Japanese, but for Kanji? She didn’t know much. She looked around and asked, “What is that? Aji-Furai?”

“Aji-Furai? It’s fried fish. You can call it fish and chips of this country, but with rice.”

“Oh? Fish and chips?” Rita was dumbfounded and said, “Then, I will get that.” She didn’t expect to find food from her country in this small eatery.

“How about you, Shishio?” Yukinoshita asked.

“I will probably get a salted salmon, and…” He looked around and found something strange. “Pickled tomato?”

“Pickled tomato?” 2x

The two looked around and quickly found the pickled tomato, which made them feel strange.

“I will order that too.”

“…..” 2x

Yukinoshita and Rita stared at Shishio in silence.

“What?”

“Nothing.” 2x

They thought that this guy was a challenger.

“Can I have some later?” Yukinoshita asked.

“Sure.”

“Oh, I want to try it too!” Rita said.

“Then, should we order?”

“Good.” 2x

He quickly called the clerk and placed their order.

“I will get a set meal of salted salmon, pickled tomato, Tosani bamboo shoots, and mentaiko,” Shishio said.

The clerk nodded, then looked at the two girls.

“I will get an Aji-Furai set.”

“I will get a pan-fried pork belly with the ginger set meal.”

Shishio and Rita looked at Yukinoshita in surprise and thought this girl was a carnivore.

“How about the rice?”

“Rice?”

“You can choose a normal size, small, or large.”

“I will get a normal size.”

“Me too.”

Rita hesitated, but she said, “I will get the small one.”

“Alright, please wait for a moment.”

The clerk left to prepare their order.

“By the way, I want a salad too. Can I?”

“Sure, but you will also get a shredded cabbage for your order.”

“Eh? Then I won’t order it.” Rita didn’t want to eat too much after all. “By the way, you’re going to shoot a movie, right? What kind of movie?”

It seemed she was more interested in the movie than he had thought.

Shishio didn’t talk and let Yukinoshita, who talked while looking around curiously and could, see that they were all looking at them, but when he looked at them, they were looking away. He could see that they wanted to talk with them, but they hesitated since his body exuded something different from all of them.

Suddenly, he wondered what would happen if he was transmigrated into the body of one of the workers in this place instead of Shishio Oga.

Also, what if he didn’t have a system?

Would he meet all of them?

Probably yes, probably not, but even if they didn’t meet each other, he still believed that he could do something on his own and also got a beautiful woman. Still, if possible, he wanted to get a charming and sexy widow.

He suddenly thought of one woman before he sighed since she wasn’t a widow but the wife of someone.

“Your order is coming!”

As the clerk came, Yukinoshita and Rita were dumbfounded by the amount of food on their table.

“…isn’t this too much?”

“If you can finish them, I will eat them.”

“Really?”

“Yes, I don’t like to waste things after all.”

“Hmm…” Rita stared at Shishio meaningfully.

“Then, should we eat?”

“Yes.” 2x

As they ate, they had to say the taste of the food was nice.
