Chapter 220: Is Radio Gymnastics a Dance?
"After all, the Shogun is also a normal man," Gintoki replied in a low voice.
"Then it's decided! Let's play games together!" As he spoke, Kawaki looked at Shige Shige, who was at the side, "There are a few games that are usually played in bars. One is the Pocky game; the second is the King's game; the third is the card game, such as UNO; the fourth is the Janken(rock paper scissors), and..."
Gintoki, who was at the side, listened to Kawaki's words and nodded continuously.
"... Russian roulette. " Just as Kawaki finished speaking. Gintoki, who was at the side, directly spat out.
"No way! Janken(rock paper scissors) is acceptable, but the last Russian roulette is a bit ridiculous!" Gintoki cursed, "What kind of bar would let you play Russian turntable?"
"Ah, I was lucky enough to enter a bar when I was wandering." Kawaki scratched the back of his head and laughed, "The most famous game in that bar is Russian roulette. That day, I won against all the people in that bar... Hahaha..."
"Win against all the people? Wait a minute... Hey, Gin... Ah... No, Paako, why did I seem to have heard something incredible just now, as if I heard a massacre..." Shinpachi whispered expressionlessly.
(The Russian roulette that Shinpachi thought Kawaki was talking about was a game of chance in which a player places a single round in a revolver, spins the cylinder, places the muzzle against the head or body, and pulls the trigger.)
"A massacre?" Kawaki was a little confused, but then Kawaki realized something and quickly explained, "No, it's not the Russian roulette that you think it is."
"No?" As he spoke, Shinpachi suddenly thought of something. He looked at Kawaki in disbelief, and his tongue seemed to be tied as he muttered, "Could it be... that it is a kind of promiscuous party?!"
"Hey, what is this four-eyed girl thinking..." Kawaki retorted expressionlessly, "This is really rude!"
"Then explain it clearly!"
"Actually, it's not much different from an ordinary Russian roulette. Instead of a real gun, we use a toy gun, and the bullet is just a paint bullet." Kawaki waved his hand and explained.
"So that's how it is..." Only then did Shinpachi heave a sigh of relief. However, he still waved his hand and said with a smile, "Although it sounds good, we don't have any props here..."
"That's true..." Kawaki crossed his arms and nodded, seemingly a little distressed.
"How about using this?" Matsudaira took out a pistol from his bosom, "Although it is not a revolver, it should be barely enough, right?"
"Hey, is this uncle really with the Shogun?" Shinpachi said expressionlessly, "You just want to kill the Shogun..."
"No, no, this definitely won't do." Gintoki quickly reveals a forced smile. He waved his hand and said, "This kind of thing is too dangerous~."
Shige Shige, who had his head lowered and was deep in thought, suddenly saw the chopsticks on the table from the corner of his eyes. He suggested with a flash of inspiration, "Then why don't we replace it with chopsticks? After spinning, whoever the tip of the chopsticks is facing is the loser. What do you think?"
"You're amazing!" Kawaki praised without hesitation, "You can even think of such a method!"
"As expected of Sho-chan!" Gintoki naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity to curry favor.
"Then let's begin!" As he spoke, Kawaki picked up a chopstick and placed them on the table to spin.
"Well, there is actually another problem," Gintoki asked, looking at the chopsticks that were constantly spinning on the table, "What is the punishment after losing?"
"I almost forgot!" Only then did Kawaki remember. He stretched out a finger and said with a smile, "The so-called punishment is to dance naked~."
"No, I'm not talking about that." Kawaki shook his head and then continued seriously, "I'm talking about radio gymnastics. It's not a dance!"
'You better stop before you go too far!' Gintoki stared at Kawaki with eyes that were about to split open, 'You are the one who should be beheaded!!!!'
"Won't do?" Shige Shige, who was performing radio gymnastics, stopped. He held his chin with one hand and muttered, "But, I really only know this... This is what my sister taught me..."
"This..." Kawaki was about to say something but was interrupted by Gintoki.
"No, you dance very well!" Gintoki commented with a serious face, "Both the coordination and the beauty of the body are all excellent! I have never seen such... er... beautiful radio gymnastics!"
After that, Gintoki clapped hard.
"Gin... Paako, you..." Shinpachi had just opened his mouth, but he was interrupted by Gintoki's gaze.
'Why do you care so much?! Give me a round of applause, bastard!'
'I know!' Shinpachi nodded heavily and then began to clap.
"Forget it; you pass the first round..." Kawaki shrugged.
...
"Then let's have the second round!" As he spoke, Kawaki once again extended his hand toward the chopstick on the table.
However, this time, Gintoki was faster and grabbed the chopstick before Kawaki.
"This time, you should let Sho-chan do it, right?" Gintoki smiled awkwardly and then handed the chopstick to Shige Shige, who had put on his clothes again, 'Shogun! I believe in you!'
"You are right," Kawaki nodded and then looked at Shige Shige, "Don't be shy. You can start. Do you want to try it yourself?"
"Yes, thank you." Shige Shige took the chopstick in Gintoki's hand with a face full of emotion and gently spun it on the table.
"Then next, it will be my turn-aru," Kagura said.
"Then next, it will be me." Kyubei continued.
"Then next, it will be my turn!" Sacchan said.
"How interesting. Let me do it after that." Otae said with a smile.
Just as Otae finished speaking, the chopstick on the table stopped spinning. However, this time, the tip of the chopstick was still pointing at Shige Shige.
'It's Shogun again!' Gintoki and Shinpachi were on the verge of collapse.
"It seems that your luck is really not that good." Kawaki smiled and said.
Shige Shige did not speak. Instead, he stood up again and walked out of the booth. Without a trace of shyness, he removed all the clothes on his body. Then, he once again dances Kabukicho's radio gymnastics with a face full of recognition...
