Komatsu's Love Defense

After leaving the Setsunori Canteen, we headed towards the center of the food city, where there is a bar called "Bar Heavy Hut", a place that world-renowned gourmets visit every day to obtain food information and find job opportunities.

This place also attracts many clients who are looking for stronger gourmets, so it is also called the "encounter bar".

As night fell, every corner of the city was enveloped in warm colors. Alu and I walked together on this busy street, blending into the bustling crowd.

We arrived at the door of the Bar, and as the night deepened, the atmosphere in the bar became more lively. Without much communication, I pushed open the door without hesitation.

Walking into the bar, it was crowded with guests. Young and middle-aged people sat around the bar, chatting and laughing, enjoying the taste of fine wine and delicious food. Some people came alone, sitting quietly in the corner, drinking by themselves, enjoying their time alone.

"Excuse me!" A Lu's loud voice echoed in the bar, attracting everyone's attention.

The moment A Lu stepped into the bar, it was as if a shining star had landed in front of everyone. Everyone was dumbfounded, their eyes fixed on him: "Ah... A Lu! The gourmet A Lu has appeared!"

When old man Sen saw A Lu's sudden visit, he was embarrassed and scratched his head uncomfortably with his left hand, muttering, "Oh my, this is really, it's been a long time since I last saw this leader in the food industry!"

The middle-aged man in front of me had a particularly eye-catching Mediterranean hairstyle. His eyebrows were thick and strong, like two sharp arrows. He was dressed simply, a white vest, dark trousers, and a pair of worn leather shoes.

"Old Man Sen, hurry up and serve the wine. Hurry up and prepare beer for A'lu!" The crowd shouted at the top of their lungs, urging the owner to prepare drinks for A'lu.

It seems that Alu is indeed well-known among these gourmets. However, Zebra, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, does not seem to be well-liked by most people.

Ah Lu grinned and laughed heartily: "Haha, I miss it so much. The heavy hut is still so lively!"

A Lu was like an experienced drinker. He walked through the crowded tables and chairs with ease and sat down leisurely at the bar.

I frowned and sat down beside Alu, a little stiffly. After all, it was my first time in a bar, so I was a little uncomfortable. The air in the bar was filled with the smell of cigarettes and alcohol, and I tried to adapt to this noisy environment.

Old man Sen walked out from behind the wine cabinet slowly, holding a large bottle of beer that had just been taken out of a wooden barrel. The beer looked heavy, and the transparent liquid shone with an attractive golden light under the light.

He placed the beer steadily on the wooden bar. With a muffled "bang" sound, the beer foam in the cup gushed out like a fountain and overflowed in an instant: "Here! This is energy pine algae beer, drink it quickly, A Lu!"

"Hey, boss, how are you?" A Lu greeted the boss enthusiastically, his eyes sparkling with joy.

Old Man Sen greeted him enthusiastically: "It's been many years since you became famous! Really, I can't see you anymore. I feel so lonely!"

Ah Lu picked up the beer on the table and drank it in one gulp: "Because even if I don't come here, I still have commissions. Another beer!"

A trace of sadness flashed in old man Sen's eyes: "You drink too fast, even if it's not for work, you can come more often."

"Hello, we meet again. What's that hairstyle of yours?" A familiar greeting sounded in my ears. I turned around and saw that it was the zombie gourmet whom we had met several times before.

A Lu turned his head suddenly, opened his eyes wide in horror, and looked at the person in front of him in disbelief: "Ah, zombie? Why are you here?"

Zong Gai laughed loudly, the flesh on his face shaking like waves: "Hey, isn't it obvious? It's a job. I heard that there are people here who want to hire me no matter what!"

“Compared to this, you guy, judging from everyone’s excited reactions, you seem to have some fame in this city. Humph, but in my village, no one knows who you are, because I have already become famous, as if I were a god! Hahahaha…” Zong Gai finally couldn’t help laughing out loud, with his hands on his hips, his laughter was deafening.

This guy... I'm afraid he's just lucky in the world of gourmet food, but in our world he's just too lucky!

(Note: The luck value of the previous character introduction = food luck value)

A Lu ignored Zong Gai and turned back to ask, "Speaking of which, how is the recent gourmet, boss?

Old Man Mori shook his head and sighed helplessly, "Humph, too young, too young, there are almost no people who can give people the quality of the Four Heavenly Kings. Recently, the client's requirements are also very strict, and there are many cases where negotiations fail."

Ah Lu stared into old man Sen's eyes and said in a comforting tone, "That's really hard work. If the negotiation is unsuccessful, the boss won't get the agency fee!"

I asked A Lu curiously: "Eh? Does the boss also match gourmets with clients?"
