Shen Xia of ghouls

Walking along the field ridge, Xia Ye and Tanaka came to the only shopping street in Waichang Village. People in the village used to call this "Waichang" and it was the main place for villagers to buy daily necessities.

Although it is called a shopping street, it is actually just a small street with not many shops on it, and you can go shopping in less than half an hour.Although sparrows are small and well-equipped, there are basic grain stores, bookstores, grocery stores, and electrical appliances stores. The goods in the shops are dazzling and readily available, which can meet the daily needs of the villagers.

Such a shopping street is really not prosperous. Most of the customers are village residents. Compared with shopping, they seem to be more interested in gathering here to spread gossip, so the shopping street is not so much a place for shopping as it is for exchanging knowledge. The place.

Walking to the corner of the shopping street, Xia Ye found a shop with a completely different decoration from other shops.

The white exterior wall is made of terracotta bricks, and a black wooden door panel is set in the recessed place, which is also inlaid with colored frosted glass.The frosted glass is emblazoned with "Creole" gold lettering, which seems to be the name of the store. (original)

Creole, that African-American musician?

Standing in front of the "Creole" door, Xia Ye felt a bitter fragrance flowing in the air, mixed with a touch of elegant fragrance.Xia Ye knew what kind of shop it was, and wanted to push the door in but was blocked by the Tanaka siblings.

"What's wrong?" Xia Ye asked suspiciously.

"Xiao Xia, do you know what store this is?"

Kaoru Tanaka looked anxious, as if there was some scourge inside.

"That's right! Xiaoxia, many people in the village don't know what is sold here, only some adult uncles will go in."

Tanaka Akira hurriedly stood in front of him.

Only uncle's shop?

Xia Ye thought of some evil scenes, and quickly broke them up.I took another look at the storefront of "Creole", and reconfirmed that my idea was correct. This is undoubtedly a very common coffee shop, a must-go place for young people to relax, entertain, date and date, but how could only Ojisan patronize it? ?

The expressions of the Tanaka siblings are not deceptive.

"The aunts in the village say this is a bad place. Otherwise, there is no signboard!"

Xia Ye didn't believe it.Akira Tanaka continued to look for strong evidence.

Shop sign?Indeed, nothing is hung on the bright white exterior wall, and there are no bright windows and elegant potted plants like ordinary cafes. This cafe is tightly surrounded, and outsiders do not know that there are Something seemed extremely mysterious.

It's like not wanting others to know that such a store exists.

After thinking about it, Xia Ye quickly guessed the shopkeeper's intentions, which probably have something to do with the "aunt" that Akira Tanaka mentioned.

"In this way, you have never stepped into this place!"

Responding to Xia Ye were two heads shaking like rattles.

Xia Ye laughed secretly in his heart, even the native villagers didn't know about it, so it can be seen that the shop owner really cherishes his shop, and Wei Shi doesn't want the cafe to become a place where three aunts and six wives gossip.

"This is a coffee shop, but it probably was specially arranged by the owner not to welcome people with bad mouths."

"Coffee shop?!"

Three voices sounded at the same time, distinguishing the baritone in between. Xia Ye followed the reputation, and it was Yukihiko who had met once. He vaguely recognized some daily necessities, the expression on his face was [-]% surprised and [-]% surprised, and he looked up and down the cafe again.

"Good day, Uncle Yuki."

Yukihiko should be the type that the owner welcomes. After moving to Waichang Village for a year and a half, but he doesn't know the nature of this store, Xia Ye couldn't help feeling that the owner's secrecy skills are top-notch.

"Good day," Yukihiko greeted with a smile, "I just passed by to take a look at this store, and I overheard your conversation, Xia Ye, how do you know this is a coffee shop, this' What does Creole' mean, my uncle has been looking for such a cafe or bar in the village."

"Creole. Creole, African-American musician, founder of jazz, presumably the owner is a jazz enthusiast who named this store, and probably wants to attract like-minded people through this, and if you get close to here, you will smell a smell A little coffee smell."

"Is there? Why didn't I smell it?"

Tanaka Akira sniffed the air, but still found nothing.

"It's not necessarily a coffee shop that smells like coffee. Maybe the owner of this shop is a coffee drinker or just making coffee?"

Kaoru Tanaka had only seen cafes on TV, so he didn't know if what Xia Ye said was right, so he subconsciously raised a question.

"Five kinds, I have smelled at least five different coffee aromas, blue mountain coffee with uniform taste, sweet and sour Colombian coffee, extremely sweet Brazilian coffee, strong aroma Italian coffee, slightly burnt taste, bitter but not bitter. Sour carbon-fired coffee, the aromas of the five coffees are layered together. I can also smell the sweetness of the cocktail and the aroma of the food, and maybe some guests are enjoying a glass of after-dinner stinger.”

The Tanaka siblings stared at Xia Ye dumbfounded, and Lian Shirohiko also looked at Xia Ye with a surprised look. He is not a countryman who has never seen a scene and yells at the slightest thing, but the girl's keen senses are really amazing. surprise him.

"Hehe, my nose is a little sensitive to smells."

Xia Ye lowered her head and smiled, put her slender and fair hand on the silver doorknob, "Since everyone is so curious, let us verify it."

"welcome!"

The black wooden door was slowly opened, and cool air came out from the room accompanied by the fresh sound of the piano (original text).Walking inside, everyone was immediately surrounded by a strong aroma of coffee.

Standing at the bar was a skinny man in his late 50s, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, who looked like an experienced bartender (sic).

"Would you like something?"

The store manager, the bartender Hasegawa, asked Yukihiko. Apparently he thought it was Yukihiko who brought these children in. Few young people in the village knew about this place, and they were worried about having no place to date!

"A cup of iced coffee, thank you." Yukihiko took the lead to order, and then turned his head and said generously to the three children: "To thank you for letting me discover such a good place, uncle treats you today."

The Tanaka siblings were very happy, but they had difficulty looking at the menu. It was their first time visiting this kind of place and they didn't know what to order.

"Then I won't be polite." Xia Ye scanned the menu and found that although this is a coffee shop, there are more types of wine than coffee, and there are few types of desserts, probably because most of the customers here are Chinese. Uncle Nian’s reason, she ordered a cup of latte and tiramisu, and seeing Tanaka’s siblings struggling, she suggested, “Xun, Xiao Zhao, I don’t think our current body is suitable for taking too much caffeine, milk The coffee is just right, and for dessert in the afternoon, matcha cake and mithirasu are both good choices.”

At Xia Ye's suggestion, Kaoru Tanaka ordered milk coffee and matcha cake, while Akira Tanaka chose tiramisu.

After Yukihiko sat down, he couldn't wait to chat with Hasegawa. Yukihiko is also a jazz lover, and they quickly found a topic. Hasegawa was surprised when he knew that Xia Ye was the first to find out that this was a cafe. But knowing that Xia Ye had just moved from Tokyo, she soon felt relieved. The cafes in the city were not like this small village, and Starbucks had already opened to the point of ten steps away.

"It turns out that there are places like this in the village. I finally know where Dad sometimes smells like alcohol!"

Akira Tanaka's tone was very excited, as if he had discovered some secret of the adults.

"He's always saying he won't tell me until I'm an adult."

"Mr. Tanaka's approach is right. Although this is indeed a cafe, as you can see, there are a lot of customers drinking here. It is more like a bar than a cafe. It is indeed not suitable for people of your age. People."

Hasegawa kindly reminded Tanaka when he heard Tanaka Akira's words.

"Scary! It's rare to find such a good place."

Tanaka Akira cried out in disappointment, turning his head to look at Xia Ye, Xia Ye gracefully sipped the light brown latte, his eyes narrowed lazily, like a satiated cat, noticing Tanaka Akira's gaze , she nodded in agreement, "Mr. Store Manager is right, there is only coffee here and alcohol. You must not allow Mr. Store Manager to sell alcohol to minors."

Akira Tanaka stared blankly at Xia Ye. The girl's elegant and dignified posture was like a lady's, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and the curve of her mouth was just right. The water in the stream was so clear that he couldn't bear to look directly at it, as if looking at it for a second longer would reveal his little thoughts in front of her.
