I Have 48 Hours a Day

Chapter 37 - Tokyo Drift (7)



“Your job is very simple, come here every morning at 1:30, drive me to the Tsukiji Fish Market, wait for me to pick up the goods there, and then pull me back with the goods, and wait for me to sort the goods and send them to you Go to the designated place, even if the work for that day is complete, you see kid? “

“Late night ?! Do I still have time to sleep after doing all this?” Zhang Heng frowned.

Toru Takeda also grinned, showing his yellow teeth. “It depends on the speed of your delivery. Okay, do you have any other questions?”

“I have one last question.”

“Ok?”

“Will you help me get my driver’s license first, right?”

The smile on Takeda’s face was completely frozen at this moment. “What did you say just now, again ?!”

“I don’t have a driver’s license yet. If you want to deliver to you, you must first get a driver’s license.” Zhang Heng truthfully said.

“………”

“You came to me to learn drag racing without a driver’s license?” Toru Takeshi was completely defeated. “Brother, are you playing with me? People who haven’t even touched the steering wheel, why are they so interested in underground races ? “

“I’m not interested in underground races, but for some inconvenient reasons I do need to participate.”

Toru Takeda is also staring at Zhang Heng, and it takes a full minute to squeeze out a sentence from the teeth. “Then you can only pray that you are passing the police car fast.”

Uh …

Tokyo in the middle of the night is still very different from daytime.

At 12 o’clock, most people were asleep. Only a few scattered windows were still on in the residential buildings near the street. Zhang Heng left the school and took the last subway. White-collar workers who want to sleep and female PRs with heavy makeup.

He got off at the terminal, and after a long walk, he finally arrived at the aquatic product shop before the agreed time.

It’s rare that Takeda Toru took it seriously. Instead of going to sleep upstairs, he squatted in the shop and sorted various orders.

I didn’t look up when I heard the footsteps behind me, but I just said, “Give me another five minutes.”

Twenty minutes later, he got up, lifted up two crabs that had just died and wore it with a straw rope. He threw a bunch of keys into Zhang Heng’s hands and snorted, “Follow me.”

The two walked out of the fishery shop and came to a small open-air parking lot not far away. Toru Takeda also shook the iron gate. After a while, the lights in the duty room cooled down. An old man with a body in his arms walked over while wearing clothes. Unlocked the iron lock on the door.

Takeda Toru also smiled at the old man, handed the two dead crabs to each other, and then pointed at what Zhang Heng said.

The old man was very happy to take over the dead crabs, the wrinkles on his face were spread out, he looked at Zhang Heng next to him, and nodded kindly at him.

“Mr. Crab, to be honest, I don’t know what his real name is, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, no one cares about that kind of thing. His wife died very early, and his son and daughter never contacted him after leaving the country. I found a living in the parking lot to support myself. We also have a place to live. We are old friends. I gave him the crab that just died and he could n’t sell it. He asked me to park here for free. You introduced it to him, and you can just drive here and return it later. “

“Which car is it?”

Zhang Heng’s eyes swept across the parking lot, and finally landed on a khaki bread in the corner, raising an eyebrow.

“It’s beautiful, isn’t it? Mitsubishi’s second-generation L300 (Delica), launched in 1982, is the first four-wheel drive van in Japan.” When talking about the car, Takeda Toru was like a new person, and there was no decadent uncle I looked at it, lit a cigarette, and stroked the body. “The 4D56 diesel 2.5 engine, the same chassis system as the Pagillo, is enough to cope with the bad weather and poor road conditions, so that the van has the performance of off-road vehicles …”

“The car of 1982? Are you sure it can still drive?” Zhang Heng doubted it.

“Rest assured, I found it in a vehicle scrapping house, which has been modified by me. The four-wheel drive has become a two-wheel drive. In terms of stability, the former is better, but the four-wheel drive will increase the weight and stability of the body. Too good **** is not good for the driver, and it is too expensive. “

“… The most important thing is that I repaired the tape drive in the car.” Toru Takeda opened the door of the co-pilot and sat on it, picking up the tape.

When Zhang Heng saw this, he could only climb into the driving. When he returned home in the morning, he made a sudden assault on his driving knowledge. He mainly relied on videos and illustrations found on the Internet. In addition, he also downloaded a small driving simulation game on his mobile phone. He also played all the way on the subway, so now … he still has no confidence at all.

Zhang Heng inserted the car key that Toru Takeda gave him into the keyhole, and turned it three times before lighting the fire.

The latter ignored him completely, and waited for the car to start. The tapes of Chuck and Asuka couldn’t wait to be inserted into the tape drive. At the next moment, the car suddenly made a brake less than five meters away. Takeda Tetsuya His head went directly to the glove box in front of the seat.

Zhang Heng’s look remained unchanged, “Sorry, the clutch was wrong.”

As he spoke, he shifted the gear lever to 5th gear.

“………”

“When you go to the car race, please tell me, I will buy insurance for you, and the beneficiary will fill in my own. I really lost to you.” Takeda Tetsu also shut down the tape drive ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Gear start, step on the left foot clutch to the end, and tap the accelerator on the right foot … “

Twenty-three minutes later, Zhang Heng drove the L300 out of the parking lot and bumped into a fire hydrant slowly under Mr. Crab’s gaze.

Fortunately, it is early in the morning and there are no vehicles outside.

Zhang Heng drove the L300 crookedly on the road, and then looked at Takeda Tori, who had honestly fastened his seat belt.

Twenty-five minutes by car Zhang Heng drove for twenty-five minutes, turned off five times, ran through two red lights, and rode once along the road, but fortunately, he finally reached his destination.

The Tsukiji Fish Market is the largest fish market in Japan and the world. Not only Tokyo, fishermen from all over Japan will send caught seafood to sell here. In its heyday, 3,200 tons of seafood were sold here, worth 3 billion yen. Every day, more than 60,000 wholesalers patronize and select and bid on their favorite products. For them, this is not only a market, but a battlefield.

Zhang Heng pulled up the handbrake, and Takeda Tetsuya originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a few seconds, his mind was still blank. In the end, he just left a sentence, “Wait here for me.” Then he opened the door and jumped down. Saying hello, the other party took out a pack of cigarettes, and the two of them went towards the main entrance while smoking.

It’s been an hour since Takeda also came back. He was also followed by a forklift with a box of seafood he chose. The result surprised him that Zhang Heng didn’t use this time to make up his sleep. It is the L300 that continues to test drive around, and compared with his jerky driving skills when he came, it has now improved significantly.

But Takeda said nothing, but said with a dark face, “Come down and load together.”
