Chapter 37: Tokyo Drift (7) (2/2)
”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 ~~ 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.”
