For some odd reason, Makoto little by little started to make noise in the tavern. He said something in a loud tone, and then suddenly, a big bald Russian approached and sat on the table where Leon and Makoto were. The bartender also bought several glasses of beer. Makoto and the Russian guy shook each other's hands.
"I guess this is a contest… what Makoto is planning?"
One at a time, Leon and the big Russian drunk a glass of beer. On the fifteenth glass, the baldie collapsed, while Leon's stomach was slightly full. Things got a bit noisier when Makoto said something, and then the bartender gave a free cup of beer to everyone inside.
"I get it… he was trying to make everyone get drunk and make them speak what he wants. It's a good plan, but I wonder if I will last long enough."
