Chapter 112: Don’t Underestimate 300 Yen!
Kabukicho, Snack Smile.
"Welcome~ This way, please~" The waiter enthusiastically greeted Kawaki.
"This place looks no different from Yoshiwara," Kawaki followed the waiter into the shop. On the way, he glanced around and murmured, "It's really unnecessary to say thank you, why do you want me to come to this place?"
"Ah! You!" Ane, who was pouring sake with the guests, inadvertently glanced at Kawaki and said in shock, "Why are you here?!"
"Who are you? Do you know me?" Kawaki scratched his head in confusion, but then he suddenly realized something. He sighed and said earnestly, "This won't do. This way of soliciting guests is too old-fashioned. Pretending to be an acquaintance or something."
"Do you think I'm hitting on you?!" Ane was a little mad, "We just met a few days ago, okay?"
"Eh? Really?" Kawaki scratched his head again, then immediately put on an apologetic smile and said, "I'm really sorry. I am blind to women with ordinary figures and characters."
"What do you mean?! Are you saying that my figure is not good and I have no character?! You bastard!" Ane said angrily.
"I didn't expect that your judgment of yourself is quite accurate. This is an advantage! It seems that you are not completely useless! Kikyo!" Kawaki nodded.
"Who are you calling Kikyo? Can you remember other people's names clearly? Are you here to make fun of me?! Is it because you tricked all my money so that you can make fun of me?!"
"I don't know what you are talking about. I was just invited here by someone..." Kawaki picked his ears and said casually.
"Is Yoshiwara's girls can't enough to satisfy you?" Ane sneered and continued to mock him, "You even specially came to this kind of place to have fun."
"Guest, may I know the name you are looking for?" The waiter asked.
"Miss Otae," Kawaki replied.
Ane, who was at the side, looked at Otae, who was running toward Kawaki with a smile on her face. She felt bad all over.
"Kawaki-san, over here~" Otae shouted at Kawaki as she ran.
"Is it really okay? I really don't have a single cent..." Kawaki was a little embarrassed, "This month's funds have all been used to buy games..."
"No problem. I originally wanted to thank you for taking care of Shin-chan. Why would I let you spend money?" Otae waved her hand and smiled, "By the way, did Miss Tsukuyo not come?"
"Ah, Hyakka still has some things to deal with. She said that she would come a little later," Kawaki replied.
Hearing Kawaki's words, Ane breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, she thought in her heart, 'I was scared to death, I almost thought that it was this woman who set me up, but I didn't expect it to be a pauper~'
Therefore, Ane relaxed again and continued to accompany the guests around her to pour sake.
...
"Is it really okay?" Kawaki sat at the booth, a little cautious and unsure in his heart.
"It doesn't matter. You can drink whatever you want. You don't have to pay today." Otae replied with a smile. "And I heard from Shin-chan that Kawaki-san only drinks Chinese White Wine. The store just so happens to have a batch of Chinese White Wine~"
"Really?" Kawaki said with some uncertainty and picked up the liquor list, "Maotai, Five Grain Liquor. Maotai mixed with Five Grain Liquor, Five Grain Liquor mixed with Maotai, Maotai mixed with Maotai, Five Grain Liquor mixed with Five Grain Liquor. What are these?"
"Isn't it the Chinese White Wine you like?" Otae was still smiling.
"Isn't this a little expensive? Isn't Miss Otae already very reserved in her life? Is it really okay to order such an expensive one?" Kawaki asked uncertainly, "Actually, I can only drink Chinese White Wine. This kind of expensive liquor is really unnecessary."
"Even at a time like this, you still think of me..." Otae wiped the corners of her eyes.
"This is really nothing. After all, you are our great benefactor. This is nothing."
"Speaking of great benefactor, it is actually nothing..." Kawaki scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed. After all, he did not remember when he had become Otae's great benefactor.
"Don't worry, your friend will pay for all the expenses today!" Otae said with a smile.
"Friends?" Kawaki was a little confused.
"Yes~" Otae looked in the direction of the door, "Isn't that him?"
"Who is it?" Kawaki followed Otae's line of sight and saw a familiar silver-haired naturally wavy hair and a familiar madao.
...
"It's here, right? It's right here, right?" Hasegawa glanced around and asked uncertainly.
"It looks very expensive here. Is there any problem?" Gintoki muttered as he walked.
"Ah! Aren't you Yorozuya's..." Ane looked up and saw Gintoki who was looking around.
"Hey, isn't this shameless Miko who refuses to admit defeat?" Gintoki said casually.
"Who did you say didn't admit defeat? Weren't you the first to shout for a refund?" Ane stood up angrily, "And why are you here?"
"I have an appointment with an acquaintance..."
"Guest, may I know the name you are looking for?" The waiter asked.
"Miss Otae." Gintoki turned his head and replied.
Looking at the smiling Otae running over again, Ane finally realized that she had been played! 'That shameless woman! She actually found someone to be her customer! Not only that Yoshiwara man, but also these two! I was really careless! I really have no brain!'
Thinking of this, Ane picked up her phone and rushed out, 'Bastard! It's not too late to remedy it now! They don't look like rich people! Even that Yoshiwara man said that he didn't bring a penny! I can still definitely win!'
...
"Hey, Gintoki, you guys are here too?" Kawaki greeted him, then poured himself a glass of white wine. To be more precise, it was a bottle of Five Grain Liquor in Gintoki's name.
"I can be at ease now. There is no need to worry about being detained because you don't have money." The moment he saw Kawaki, Gintoki's hanging heart calmed down, and then he sat down, "Looks like I can drink to my heart's content today! Hasegawa-san, you should sit too."
"What are you talking about?" After drinking a cup, Kawaki turned to Gintoki and asked, "Didn't you say that you were treating me? I didn't bring a single cent with me."
In an instant, Gintoki's face darkened, and he looked at the bottle of Chinese white wine on the table, "Bastard... treat? Me? When did Gin-san say that he was treating?"
"Miss Otae said it," Kawaki said matter-of-factly. Then, he sighed with emotion, "I didn't expect that I could still drink the wine you paid~ I really didn't expect that~ From when you were young until now, the number of guests you have invited is only a handful."
"In that case, that bottle of wine..."
"Yes, of course, it is in your name." Kawaki replied without hesitation, "I'm really very grateful. I originally wanted to order some cheap Chinese white wine, but this store seems only to have these two types of Chinese white wine. It really cost you a lot."
"Excuse me, how much is this bottle?"
"It seems to be 50,000 yen," Kawaki replied, "This is still a relatively cheap one. The other one seems to be 50,001 yen. I helped you save money~"
"Can you not save money for me? Is it necessary to save that one yen?" Gintoki roared, "Do you think I'm as rich as you?! Usually, when you drink shochu, you need to add half the amount of water!"
"There's no other way. Who asked there to be no other white wine here?" Kawaki waved his hand and said helplessly.
"Speaking of which, the alcohol you drink is really high..." Hasegawa was not polite. He poured himself a cup and took a sip, "But it was not bad. Thank you, Gin-san. You actually invited us to drink such high-class wine!"
"I never said I would treat you to a drink! Don't be so self-confident!" Gintoki said angrily.
"I know," Kawaki sighed and said in a timid tone, "Then, I will also help you pay a little. This is my last private money."
"Oh! I have forgotten that you have the habit of hiding money!" Gintoki said in surprise, "Then please..."
Before he could say the word, Kawaki had already taken off his two shoes, took out the remaining coins, and put them in Gintoki's hand, "No need to thank me. Who asked me to be so kind?"
"I don't need the kindness of 300 yen!"
"What are you talking about, Gintoki? 300 yen is enough to buy a Jump magazine! Are you looking down on 300 yen?!"
"This is the wine money just now," Otae took out all the money from Gintoki's wallet and handed it to the waiter.
"You..." Gintoki found it hard to believe that she would pay the bills.
"Remember to write the invoice on Sakata Gintoki," Otae said.
"No need. You were the one who paid the bill. Why did you write my name on the invoice..." As he spoke, Gintoki suddenly realized that the wallet in Otae's hand looked a little familiar. It seemed to be the same brand as his old wallet. Gintoki took a closer look, "Isn't that my wallet?! When did you take it away?!"
"Eh? Didn't you just give it to me?" Otae asked in confusion.
"When did I give it to you?" Gintoki shouted and took back his wallet. He opened his wallet and looked at it, "All my money... all the money I earned from playing pachinko for two days... is gone!"
"Isn't it?" Otae continued, "Just now, you were sitting there with your arms open. I accidentally saw you and thought you did it on purpose."
"Who did it on purpose! It's not that at all!" Gintoki was mad, "And why don't you choose a 50,000 yen wine!"
"It's alright, Gin-san," Hasegawa advised, "Anyway, the degree is so high. It's just like shochu; if you add water, this bottle is enough, and you don't need to spend any extra."
