Tokyo: Who would still fall in love after being spoiled?

Chapter 67 Now that things have come to this, let’s play mahjong first
The dining and living room was bustling just a second ago, but as Takeda pushed the door open, it suddenly fell into a subtle silence.

He took another look at the all-suited deck in his hand and sorted out the order of the cards.

Asakura gave him a questioning look, but received no response, then looked at Takeda silently.

Hei Mu was the most nervous and almost mixed the cards in his hand into the pile of cards, ready to run away - he had a bad hand.

There were many traces of rain on Takeda's body - his socks were wet by the splashing water, the outer surface of the handbag containing the plastic lunch box was covered with raindrops, and his hair was also slightly wet.

She looked around the dining and living room from the entrance, seeing the unwashed dishes on the kitchen counter, the dining table, coffee table, sofa and benches that had not been there before today, and seeing them sitting on the plush carpet around the low table and coffee table, playing cards and mahjong.

He stood silently for a few seconds, walked past Inoue, and glanced at his cards.

Then he walked behind the kitchen counter, stuffed the overdue lunch box he brought back from the grocery store into the refrigerator, and started washing the dishes piled in the sink.

"Um—I…" Kuroki suddenly realized he had to say something, but the words that came out of his mouth seemed to pop out like a search term, "Kuroki, Inoue's friend, came to drink, brought pear juice, that's all."

"Oh." Takeda nodded.

Hei Mu couldn't sit still any longer. He moved around the low table to his side and lowered his voice, "Why didn't you tell me that your roommate was a girl? She's washing dishes! Are you sure we're roommates and not living together?"

"You haven't asked either..." He was puzzled, not only to Kuroki, but also to Takeda.

Shouldn't he lose his temper at this time and then ask him to drive away all his "bad friends"?

"Hey, Inoue." Takeda suddenly called him.

"She's calling you..." Kuroki whispered face to face.

"I can hear you." He was replying to Hei Mu.

"What did you eat?" Takeda seemed to have heard it too... There was a slight change in his eyes when he looked at him, but it disappeared in a flash.

"Beef brisket with tomatoes, steamed sweetfish, grilled eggplant, edamame salad, and miso soup."

“Continental food?”

“A nearby continental restaurant.”

"Eh..." Takeda put the remaining half of the plate of edamame into the refrigerator, and said with a long and intriguing tone, "What a pity, I didn't get to eat it. I can only eat the overdue bento for dinner."

"Next time! Next time, let Inoue take you out to eat." Kuroki was definitely drunk.

"Let Inoue take me there?" Takeda continued washing the dishes, staring at them unhappily.

"Kuroki's treat," he added.

"Okay...that's not right. Me treat? Why...never mind...me treat!" Even though he was drunk, Hei Mu was still generous enough.

"Really? Then I will definitely make time for it. Thank you very much--" Takeda's face turned from cloudy to sunny.

She finished washing the pots and pans, hung them up on the drain rack, and sat down between him and Asakura.

"What's the score now? I see a score stick."

"I have fifty-eight thousand nine hundred, Kuroki has twelve thousand seven hundred, and Asakura—the guy to your right—has thirty-one thousand four hundred. Last round's balance was one thousand points, and just now, Riichi has been one thousand points. The field supply is two thousand three. It's a half-banker game, Minami-san, and I'm the banker."

He is now in the sixth round of riichi, and is waiting for multiple cards of 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 1 before riichi. He has only played the 1 and 9 tiles, so his advantage is huge.

"Then you've already secured victory?" Takeda suddenly smiled maliciously. "You still want to stand upright when you have all the same suits and multiple sides? You don't want to chase after the green suit?"

It turns out that revenge for him is lying in ambush here!
"All the same color?" Hei Mu suddenly became alert, "And they're all ropes."

It was really annoying. He just glanced at Hei Mu and saw that he had a set of 2, 4, 5 and Suo in his hand. After cutting the 1 and 9, he should be given 2 Suo.

"Ah! Sorry! Inoue-san—! I didn't mean to…" Takeda covered his mouth, his serious expression finally breaking. He must have done it on purpose.

"If I win with this hand of cards, I can earn an extra 360 yen! That's enough for breakfast!" He had to make Takeda realize the seriousness of his mistake.

The third place will be given 500 yen to the first place, and then there will be a prize pool of 1,000 points and 20 yen. After the game, the prize will be redistributed according to the remaining points.

"You even say that?" Takeda chuckled, almost wiping away tears. "Sorry—I really didn't mean to... Hey, how about I compensate you with a deluxe bento from the grocery store? I guarantee you'll win!"

"Yoshi! Thank you Miss Takeda for the information!" Now that Kuroki has revealed Zhang Nanfeng, I'm afraid he will never be able to fight that idiot again in his life.

"Inoue-senpai has been playing good cards today...you've made a lot of money - these 400 yen are not a big deal." Asakura even played Kitakaze as a safe card and added the 40 yen in the betting to help him.

"Hey, don't be unhappy!" Takeda had laughed enough and conspired with him loudly, "I'll come to the next game too. I'll sit next to you and feed you the cards. We'll split the spoils 50-50."

"Did you hear that? Kuroki-senpai..." Asakura joked with her. When he called out Kuroki, who had lost all night, he hesitated for a few seconds, but continued with confidence, "Then we'll have to cooperate too!"

"Split the loot fifty-fifty!" The reservedness that Kuroki had when Takeda just came in gradually disappeared, and taking advantage of the alcohol, he shouted excitedly again.

The rain was still falling outside, but the sound of rain could not be heard for a while - with Takeda's interruption and a few jokes, the subtle silence in the dining and living room was gone, and the lively noise poured in from all directions again, driving the sound of rain back outside.

When Takeda arrived, he sucked away all his luck.

They said they were united against the outside world, but they never gave him a single card from beginning to end. Instead, they set up blocks against him everywhere.

At the bottom of the list was still Hei Mu, but he had gone from being the fisherman who made a fortune in the fish pond to being the fish struggling hard in the pond, and he had lost all the money that the three of them had earned from playing mahjong.

Asakura only took second place, occasionally third place, neither losing nor gaining, just playing cards simply.

All the money slipped into Takeda's pocket, and he made a fortune in one night.

They played like this until late at night.

"It's really too late...we should go back...am I disturbing Miss Takeda's rest?" Asakura said softly, with a hint of fatigue in his tone.

As soon as the surroundings became quiet, the sound of rain outside took advantage of the opportunity to enter, quickly occupying the entire room, rustling.

"Stay overnight!" Takeda said hurriedly, "If you don't mind, you can use my spring quilt. Turn on the air conditioner, it won't be too hot."

"I have spare bedding in my room, new ones." Seeing that Asakura was still hesitant, he added.

At this time, not only has the tram stopped running, but even taxis are unavailable at night in the old residential area where the rental house is located.

"I'll just use Miss Takeda's, leave it for Kuroki-senpai..." Asakura thanked him.

As she said this, Kuroki himself had fallen asleep on the carpet.

"Hey, Inoue, is the water heater on?"

"opened."

"Then let Miss Asakura take a bath! There are bath towels in the bathroom that I just bought yesterday, and they haven't been used yet." Takeda said, thinking of him, and added to him, "Is it okay for us to use them first?"

"fine."

"I forgot to tell you! No peeking."

"I'll drag this guy into the house first, and I won't come out until you call me."
