Eternal food paradise

Hot spring hotel.

After everyone put away their luggage and settled down, the first thing they did was to rush towards the 'hot soup'.

Hakone has always been known as the hot spring kingdom. It would be a shame to travel or stay here without soaking in the natural hot springs with a light sulfur smell in this midsummer and summer vacation.

It was already nightfall.

The open-air hot spring pool has high walls and separate separate areas for men and women, instead of the popular mixed bathing scenario.

The night sky is clear, and every star is extremely clear.

Compared with the girls' area, where chatter and laughter can be heard from time to time, the boys' area is much quieter.

Xia Yan leaned against the edge of the pool, with the rockery stacked up behind him having a simple charm. He stretched his arms wide and stretched his body as much as possible in the water with a suitable temperature.

Not far away, the 'King of Medicine' Xing Ping Soma was also leaning against the wall, arms folded, staring blankly at the stars in the night sky.

Ise Hui was next to him, covering her face with a hot bath towel, as if she had fallen asleep comfortably.

Among the other boys in the Jokusei dormitory, Marui Zenji, who loves to read, didn't stay for long before he found a recliner and studied with a thick encyclopedia of ingredients.

Brothers Sato Shoji and Aoki Daigo were gesturing with their fists as usual. Their sand sculpture aura was incompatible with the hot spring house.

Jun Imusaki found a vending machine, bought a bottle of iced green tea, and huddled in the dark alone.

perhaps.

This is the case with boys.

"Wow, wow..."

There was an unpleasant sound of paddling. Someone was striding towards here. Xia Yan gathered his hands and feet and looked at the person.

‘Brother Yao’ Caibo Chaoyang, with a serious face, reported in a lowered voice: “Lord Xia Yan, I just received a message that someone from the ‘WGO’ organization is here!”

"oh?"

Xia Yan stood up straight subconsciously.

You must know that in the world of Shoji, there is more than just the 'Toyue Kingdom'.

Or rather, in places other than Neon Island, in most cases, the ‘WGO’ organization, this international food organization, controls the highest say in the culinary world.

Well.

Suddenly, I thought of the only special executive officer of the ‘WGO’ organization, Nakiri Shinagi.

Xia Yan glanced at Caibo Chaoyang, and the corners of his eyes twitched subtly.

This is Erina's mother.

However.

This 'Yako-ge' Saiba Chaoyang is indeed the biological son of Nakiri Kiku, but he is an illegitimate son who has no bloodline from the Nakiri family at all.

In other words, half-siblings.

Xia Yan secretly complained that your circle is really chaotic and we can't afford to offend it.

"What's the reaction from the outside world?" He coughed.

Caibo Chaoyang took a breath: "It's a big commotion!"

"In the past two years, no WGO executive has flown to Neon just to watch a showdown."

"I suspect that this organization has long been eyeing "Akita Village"! We are ‘late night cooks’! "

No.

Xia Yan continued to complain.

Another possible situation is that the mistress has been following and investigating you, the bastard, for a long time. She is a thorn in her side!

But it seems that this matter has only benefits and no harm to his plan.

Especially when he believes that ‘magic grade’ ingredients are invincible.

A can be met, a stable victory of the Shoji.

WGO executives participated and even served as judges.

The sensational effect and influence of the incident have simply increased exponentially!

"very good!"

"I'll accept mom Erina's assist first!"

Xia Yan secretly said.

Thinking about it, Xia Yan patted Caibo Chaoyang on the shoulder, "Did you find anything out about the bottle of 'coffee beans' I gave you this afternoon?"

"certainly."

Caibo Chaoyang couldn't hold back his excitement, and his voice became louder: "Where do those 'coffee beans' come from? It's amazing. The raw beans can be used directly as 'spice'. I tried to cook a dish with them." The quality of the curry dishes is terrifyingly high, and the taste, texture and even spiritual senses and enjoyment are fully enhanced..."

Shh! Xia Yan raised his finger to his lips, signaling Caibo Chaoyang to control it.

"Then how sure are you of tomorrow's Shoji Halberd?"

"Ten percent!"

The corners of Brother Yao's mouth were grinning unscrupulously.

There was another splash of water.

Brother Yao left, and across a high wall from the girls' hot spring area, Alice Nakiri's voice came: "Senior Xia Yan, are you still bathing? I'll go over to find you right away. I have some cooking questions. , I want to ask for advice."

Xia Yan shook his head. This girl showed even more astonishing perseverance after her "kneel down on earth" plan went bankrupt that day.

Isn’t it just asking for a ‘devil’s cooking training’?

It's simple.

It was already in his plan, but the [deviation value] resources must be sufficient.

Oh, when the time comes, I will throw you into a world full of ghosts and weird things, and entertain those customers with horse faces and bull heads, so don't cry.

I feel that after soaking in the hot springs enough, the skin of my hands and feet has tightened and the veins are visible. It would be too much to soak any more.

Xia Yan stood up, wrapped a white bath towel around his waist, and left the pool.

Da da da.

Isekui, who had been sleeping with his face covered with a bath towel, suddenly took the bath towel away when the footsteps faded away, revealing a face full of thinking.

The leader of the dormitory, the current seventh-seat classmate, looked at Souma Yukihira, who looked at the sky with a melancholy face next to him:

"Chuangzhen-kun, you seem to know the hot spring owner who entertained our group?"

Sudden question, Yukihira Soma replied without thinking: "What kind of hot spring hotel owner? Senior Xia Yan took me out that day, do you remember? We went to a place called "Akita Village" together, that guy It's the boss. "

"Is that so?"

Isshiki Hui's pupils shrank slightly.

…

An overnight table tennis match started after soaking in a hot spring.

Tadokoro, known as the "Northeast Leaping Rabbit", once again showed her impressive skills and became the strongest player on the girls' side.

As for the boys.

The figure who was calm and composed in front of the table, moving around and taking the sharp knocks with ease, was actually Senior Xia Yan?

Zenji Marui, a deep otaku, was dumbfounded: "That shouldn't be the case. Senior Xia Yan should be more otaku! I've never seen him go out for exercise, not even once for morning jogging or night jogging!"

Yukihira Soma scratched his head: "Perhaps, honing your cooking skills is equivalent to physical exercise? I know that Chinese cuisine also has high requirements for physical fitness."

Tadokoro lost several goals in a row and couldn't help but stop in frustration:

"It's not on the same level at all!"

Xia Yan smiled and said, "How about changing the game and let's play mixed doubles?"

The words trailed off.

"I'm coming! I'm coming!" Alice Nakiri immediately raised her white hands, her cheeks flushed with excitement. Without any explanation, she grabbed an empty racket and stood beside Xia Yan.

Xia Yan: "..."

Nakiri Erina: "Stare——"

Everyone broke into a cold sweat: "Danger!"

Erina's face also turned red, but Juebi was angry. She grabbed another racket and stood in front of the stunned Tadokoro, "I'll be the main attacker!"

Another game, full of gunpowder.

"Ah, isn't it a gang fight?"

I don’t know who said it.

"Shhh."

Isekhui hurriedly pointed out a warning, "It doesn't matter what kind of fights there are. Everyone, please be careful not to get involved in the war! Be careful!"

"(_)?!!"

In front of the table, there was a fight, and the situation became intense, but the situation turned into a game between the Nakiri sisters. Xia Yan and Tadokoro became assistants on the ball, smashing and dunking, etc. Alice and Erina let out murderous shouts every time.

Xia Yan's eyebrows twitched.

Wrong, wrong.

These plastic sisters shouldn’t have any sleepovers together, “natural enemies of each other!”

…

The next day, the hot spring hotel was filled with a chilling atmosphere.

Multiple police cars were parked at the door, and the police on duty cordoned off any areas where they might climb over the wall to sneak into the hotel, and even formed a wall of human shields to withstand the surging crowds.

Click, click!

Every time a guest with special qualifications arrived, the sound of shutter photos kept ringing.

"Chef Nitta is here!"

"Look, behind us are the Qianhe sisters from HOB Food Group..."
