Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"A Xing, I'm going to rest, don't forget to go and see those guys who can't stand the blow in half an hour."

At 11:30, Erina was ready to leave, and Liu Maoxing came back two hours ago, and the things he brought back were also confusing...

"Good night...wait a minute, can't bear the blow? You can't be... well, it's nothing, good night." Liu Maoxing said helplessly.

Obviously, it has been imagined. At 8 o'clock before, when Erina went to find other students, she must be in the "venomous tongue mode", which is the "normal mode" for Erina herself.

Well, in other words, after Liu Maoxing, he still has to shoulder some responsibilities to smooth everyone's hearts. If the stimulation continues, some students may collapse...

Although it's already so late, it's not very safe for a girl to walk alone at night, but Erina is obviously an exception. Her bodyguard is now outside the cooking room. Unless terrorists suddenly appear outside, there is no danger...

Moreover, the hotel that Liu Maoxing booked was just across the street, and when he stepped out of the restaurant building, he could see the brightly lit door of the hotel.

At zero o'clock, Liu Maoxing started to "tour and taste" various cooking rooms. At this time, most of the students had already made finished products.

It wasn't until after two o'clock that I tasted all of them. Due to time constraints, everyone only got a few words of advice. Liu Maoxing was also very careful when evaluating and guiding, and gave corrective guidance based on the other party's existing ideas.

Liu Maoxing believed in the suggestions he gave, and if these students were given two or three days, they would be able to think of them themselves.

That is, like a real taster, shortening their "development time"...

Of course, there are also a few people who are in bad condition. Firstly, they lack their own abilities, and secondly, because of too little time, they fall into anxiety and tension.

Liu Maoxing reckoned that it would be impossible for all members to pass the test this round. I had contacted Dojima Yin once before, and the students who were eliminated in this round could enter Yuanyue Resort as "cooks".

With the cultivating business model of Yuanyue Resort, although the cultivation of "cooks" is far from comparable to that of Yuanyue College, if you still have the heart to continue to climb the peak of cooking, it is still a good place...

Ironically, although the "cooks" of Yuanyue Resort are called "cooks", they can also be cultivated in self-development after work, while the "students" of the "central gourmet agency" are called "students". ", but in fact it is only equivalent to a senior "cook".

Usually Yuanyue Resort does not accept students who were expelled in the first grade assessment, but this time the situation is special, at least the students who have not yet joined the "Central Gourmet Organization" are worthy of recognition for their dedication to innovation Yes, many students at the same level as them have already joined the "Central Gourmet Organization", and they also know that they may be eliminated in the assessment!

So Dojima Yin is willing to recruit for a special time.

Of course, there are also many students who choose to go home and continue to hone in their own industries after leaving the academy, so it depends on everyone's own wishes...

When Liu Maoxing returned to his cooking room, only Yu Mei, You Ji, Yisami, and Chuangzhen were still there. The others obviously went back to the hotel to rest. The hotel is only one road away from the cooking building.

"Huh? Have you decided to stay up all night and fight?" Liu Maoxing wondered, anyway, he won't be able to sleep tonight, and at four o'clock, he will go back again.

Yisami, who had gotten rid of the bitter summer form and returned to a chubby look, said: "No, I'm going to rest soon... There are still some finished products left, you can have a midnight snack if you are hungry."

"When you say that, I'm really hungry!"

"Didn't you just come back from eating..." Yisami felt that Liu Maoxing's appetite was very unscientific.

If Liu Maoxing knew what he was thinking, he would definitely point to his nose and say: With your physique of turning into a monster every year, how dare you call me unscientific?

"Yu Mei, how are you?"

She is the person Liu Maoxing pays most attention to this time.

Firstly, the relationship between her and Liu Maoxing is very close, and secondly, the theme of this time really makes Yu Mei a little helpless!

But now, there is no frustration or complaint on her face, instead she is full of energy trying new recipes...

"Don't worry! It's just that you can't use meat, and it's not that 'meat' cooking is forbidden!"

Seeing that Yu Mei is full of confidence, Liu Maoxing is relieved. Although Yu Mei's "additional points" all focus on meat dishes, but I believe that as long as she is serious about "vegetarian", she will have no problem passing the preliminaries.

But when he tasted Yisami's final product, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then murmured in a low voice: "Isn't it... It seems that this competition is worth watching. Those guys who think that there is an old store formula can rest easy." , seems to be surprised!"

Liu Maoxing obviously thinks that besides himself and Erina, other top students can also pose a threat to those seeded players...

At the same time, Liu Maoxing also checked the recipe of his soup again. It was not until four o'clock that Yu Mei finally finished it, and was going back to the hotel to rest for a few hours.

"See you tomorrow afternoon." Yu Mei finally greeted Liu Maoxing.

During the preliminaries, 3000 was divided into ten divisions, Yu Mei was in the sixth division, and Liu Maoxing was in the first division, so we won't be able to meet until after the competition.

Chuangzhen seems to have made preparations for the whole night, while Liu Maoxing decided to make a final turn...

But at this time, only a dozen or so most unsure students, and a few students like Chuangzhen, who want to keep improving, are still staying in the cooking building. Others also need to take a rest. Sharpness is also very important for "untrained" cooks.

Few people needed Liu Maoxing's guidance this time, but he had been guiding everyone for a longer time, so even so, it was after five o'clock before returning to the hotel from preparing to leave for a while. If it wasn't winter, it would have been already see the sun...

But when I walked on the first floor, I found that the light in the cooking room was still on, and I could still hear the sound of the kitchen knife cutting at a high frequency.

"Is there anyone here at this time? He is really a hardworking cook, and he is also a contestant tomorrow, right? The sound of cutting vegetables is fast and steady, and it doesn't make too much noise. It's a good basic skill..."

Although Liu Maoxing didn't have super-acoustics yet, he could still hear this kind of voice.

It is not surprising that there are other people here. After all, many contestants who come to participate in the competition from outside Sapporo will rent the cooking room nearby. Before the Sapporo branch, apart from the students of Yuanyue Academy, there are also many cooking rooms. People are here, but it is quiet at this time.

"Why don't you help him?" This idea came to Liu Maoxing's mind, and he knocked on the unlocked door.

In Liu Maoxing's view, those who haven't rested at this time must be cooks who are not sure yet but still hold some hope. People who work hard and persevere should get some "rewards"!

In the cooking building in the early morning, the only room with lights on and "strange" sounds coming out...

In supernatural novels, the "protagonist" like Liu Maoxing who opened the door casually probably won't survive three volumes...

But this is obviously not a supernatural novel, so when Liu Maoxing opened the door, all he saw was a cook, carefully chopping chopped green onions.

Hearing Liu Maoxing's voice coming in, he couldn't help but wondered: "Huh? You don't seem to be from this cooking room, are you a staff member? Are you going to lock the door?"

"No, this place is open 24 hours today... that... I originally wanted to practice with you..." Liu Maoxing was a little embarrassed.

Originally, he made up his mind to come in to help this hard-working cook "by the way", but in order to take into account the other party's self-esteem and not arouse the other party's vigilance, Liu Maoxing wanted to use "practice together" as an excuse.

But when Liu Maoxing came in, the first time he saw the other party, he felt something was wrong, he seemed to have overlooked one thing!

This "hard-working" cook is wearing an old-fashioned chef's turban on his head at this time, and there is not a strand of hair on his temples, only the combed hair can be seen behind him... Now he still wears this kind of turban. People are rare, and they are also wearing old-fashioned all-white clothes similar to bunts in Hanfu.

It is true that some ramen chefs like this kind of retro attire. Although their ramen recipes are constantly improving, they don't feel that there is any need to improve their attire... Anyway, it doesn't affect their work!

But because this guy looks so young, he is dressed so old-fashioned, which is a bit awkward...

Of course, Liu Maoxing was a little embarrassed because he found out that this "hardworking cook" was a woman!

(Ahem, although this description is a bit tricky, but it is a fan anyway, so I am not so particular... To sum it up: please make up the image of the boss daughter of Ichiraku Ramen in Naruto by yourself, "Iris"!)

It's not sexist or anything, it's just that Liu Maoxing realized at this moment that if there was a man in the room, his current behavior is quite superior. After some guidance, he feels like a "grandfather behind the scenes"...

But now it's a young girl, and she insists on practicing with others at this time, no matter how you look at it, she doesn't look like a serious person!

Fortunately, the other party seemed to see Liu Maoxing's embarrassment, and seemed to have misunderstood something, and said with a cheerful smile: "Hahaha, don't worry, is it because the other people in the same room have left, so you dare not practice alone? There is a free cooking table, I am not going to go to other places before the game, you can also practice here."

In this way, Liu Maoxing, who originally wanted to show off his "superior demeanor", inexplicably put on the persona of "a man who is afraid of black people", and was preparing for the competition with a certain "hardworking female cook"...

Of course, Liu Maoxing actually has nothing to prepare for, but even though the other party's gender is beyond his expectations, Liu Maoxing feels that he can still help her and regain his "superior demeanor" by the way!
