"Wow, I want to eat it so much, I want to eat it too..."
In the audience, Yoshino Yuki looked at the trio of Nakiri Senzaemon and Nakiri Senzaemon who were enjoying the delicious food at the judges' table. She also drooled unmotivated and looked like she was salivating.
In fact, at this time, no one cared about Yoshino Yuki's rude appearance. Almost everyone else in the Jokusei Residence and even the entire venue looked like this.
Yoshino Yuki's performance is relatively restrained, even more exaggerated, like a "bad duo" with a layer of water stains already accumulated under her body.
Even the two sisters Nakiri Erina and Alice, who have always maintained a noble posture, are holding back their saliva and reminding themselves at all times to maintain the most basic appearance.
However, their slightly closed legs clearly showed that these two people were not far from their final collapse.
"I want to eat that dish too..."
At this time, the two of them had the same thought in their minds.
…
"Quick, quick, bring the fourth dish! Do you still want to eat? Hurry up..."
Leonora Nakiri hammered the table with her pink fist, acting out like a little girl. Alice Nakiri raised her eyebrows and put her face on her face, unable to bear looking at her! Erina Nakiri couldn't help but feel embarrassed as well.
Smiled.
"Mom, you idiot~"
Nakiri Alice's pretty face turned red, and she kept blushing because of her mother's pretense. Especially when Erina Nakiri saw it, Alice felt like she was suffocating.
“The fourth course is the special steamed chin!”
When Ren said the name of the fourth dish, Xia Tian couldn't help but move forward curiously, but he still remembered how two jaws came from just one fish.
Taking a closer look, Xia Tian discovered that it turned out to be "one fish for two purposes", a fish head cut into two halves, each cooked in different ways.
Seeing this, Xia Tian couldn't help curling his lips and said:
"It's really fancy..."
However, Nakiri Senzaemon and others at the judges' table didn't care about this. All their eyes were focused on the fourth and final dish.
The three of them opened the lid with joy, and the fragrance that hit their faces immediately made their crazy appetites subside, leaving only a sense of tranquility.
"This food seems to have magic power, making everyone feel at peace."
Leonora Nakiri took a deep breath of the fragrance in the air, her eyes regained their clarity, and she became the noble and elegant lady she used to be!
"You have great virtue, and this last dish actually shows it in this way!"
Nakiri Senzaemon looked at the steaming dishes in front of him, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The three of them began to taste the food, and the fish melted in their mouths. Compared with the second dish just now, this steamed chin had a unique flavor, as if all the worries disappeared without a trace at this moment.
The whole person is bathed in the breeze, and the spring breeze blows on the face, which makes people feel that all things are full of vitality.
Nakiri Senzaemon and others slowly opened their eyes, looking at the silent young man in front of them with complicated eyes. In Nakiri Senzaemon's memory, only the person known as the "Five Tigers" could cook Ren's dishes.
The magazine is even better, and even Xia Tian is only comparable to it in his heart.
Compared to the complexity of Nakiri Senzaemon, Dojima Gin and Nakiri Leonora were completely shocked, looking at the iceberg-like man in front of them in disbelief.
"Now, that kid is in danger!"
A trace of worry flashed in Leonora Nakiri's eyes. She didn't know why. She obviously hated that summer, but now she couldn't help but worry about him.
…
No matter how complicated their moods are, the cooking showdown continues, and it’s time to conduct the summer cooking review.
"Okay, it's finally my turn!"
Xia Tian stood up and brought his food to the stage. After placing the food, Xia Tian wiped the sweat from his forehead, stretched out his right hand, made an invitation and said:
"Please, everyone, this is my food!"
After saying that, he lifted up the white cloth on the food. After everyone present saw the true appearance of the food below, they suddenly let out a cry of surprise.
"What's this!!"
“Is this Chinese food?”
Seeing a whole sea bream lying quietly on the silver plate, as if it had never been handled and was just taken out, Nakiri Senzaemon couldn't help but frown and said:
"Xia Tian, is this your first dish? But..."
Nakiri Senzaemon was about to express his doubts, but Xia Tian shook his head directly and said:
"No, Commander, this is all my food."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience suddenly widened their eyes, wondering if their ears had heard it wrong. In the audience, Yoshino Yuki grabbed Yukihira Soma's shoulders and shook him and said:
"Ah, that idiot must have forgotten that Shouki's request is to make four dishes, ah, Ryoko, no way!"
Yoshino Yuki looked at Ryoko Sakaki pitifully, hoping to get some support from her, but the result was destined to disappoint her. Ryoko Sakaki smiled bitterly and said:
"Maybe Xia Jun has his own ideas! And..."
Ryoko Sakaki changed her tone again, looked at Yoshino Yuki helplessly and said:
"Besides, you'd better let go of Yukihira-kun, he has already fainted."
I saw Souma Yukihira's eyes rolling around in circles and foaming at his mouth. All the boys on the side looked at him with pity.
"Oh, got it!"
Only then did Yoshino Yuki realize that her hand was the same as Soma Yukihira's. She responded with a mild response and let go of Soma Kohira. Suddenly Soma Kohira fell straight into Zenji Marui's arms...
Zenji Marui: "..."
Xing Ping Soma: "..."
…
Hearing Xia Tian's answer, Xiang En suddenly smiled and said charmingly:
"Xia Tian, you must have forgotten the requirement of this cooking showdown, right? You have to make four dishes of sea bream, but now you have only made one dish. Do you want to admit defeat directly?"
Not only Xiang En, Nakiri Senzaemon also looked at Xia Tian worriedly. If Xia Tian really made such a low-level mistake, then this time Shouki can also directly announce the result.
But Xia Tian just chuckled and said nothing. Xiang En couldn't help but feel hope at this moment. Maybe he could really complete the task this time and bring back the "legendary kitchen utensils."
Thinking of this, Xiang En couldn't help but said excitedly:
"Xia Tian, in this case..."
"Idiot, haven't you noticed it yet?"
Before Xiang En could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a sharp shout. A flash of anger flashed across Ren's face, and he said seriously:
"Look carefully at the surface of..."
Only then did everyone turn their attention back to the snapper presented by Xia Tian. After a closer look, they discovered that there was a white silk thread tied to various parts of the fish. It was too thin and difficult to see.
"This is……"
Xiang En couldn't help but widen his eyes and said in surprise. At this time, Xia Tian finally chuckled:
"My cuisine embodies the essence of Chinese cuisine..."
