Food Wars: Taste Buds Reversal

087. Can I try your cooking?】

"Damn it... I'm actually going to lose to this transfer student just like that?"

Looking at the three judges on the judges' bench who were completely oblivious to the situation here, Mito Yumei naturally knew that even if she served her own dishes at this time, the result would probably not change much.

However, losing the food battle so unfrustratingly would not only betray the trust of Lady Erina, but would also make this transfer student more arrogant...

Looking at the A5 beef hot pot in front of her, Mito Yumei's eyes showed a dazed look... Could it be that the ingredients she used were not top-notch enough?

All along, with her superb cooking skills and control over meat dishes, Mito Yumei could be said to be invincible when she was in the junior high school of Totsuki Academy. As long as it was a course related to meat dishes, she had never gotten a grade below A. She originally thought that this time's opponent would be the same. As long as she exerted all her strength, she could step on Shiraki under her feet, and then it would be no problem to gain Erina's appreciation.

But now...

reality was like a slap in her face.

The meat dishes she was proud of did not even have the slightest resistance in front of the opponent's dishes.

She didn't even have the chance to serve them in front of the judges.

Directly declared a failure, this is definitely the most incredible competition since Totsuki Academy established the"Shokugeki" rules.

Strictly speaking, these judges have seriously violated the rules.

They only tasted one side's food and made a direct judgment.

To put it in a broader sense, the actual management bureau can fully suspect whether Shiraki is suspected of manipulating the competition.

However, looking at the way the three judges are eating now, it is clear that there is no such possibility. After all, the three of them are well-known figures in the food industry and will not destroy their reputation for a little benefit. Moreover, as another contestant in this"Shokugeki", Mito Yumei knows the power of Shiraki's dish better than anyone else.

That was a dish that made her unable to compete with it due to its momentum during the cooking process. Even in the top restaurants, she has never seen such a dish. As the eldest daughter of the Mito Group, Mito Yumei's knowledge is naturally extraordinary. She has also had the opportunity to come into contact with various dishes that ordinary people cannot come into contact with. But even so, the dish that Shiraki served today... is the first time she has seen it in her life.

It's like... the ingredients are conscious.

""Have you finished your cooking?"

Just as Mito Yumei was immersed in this devastating defeat and had not yet come to her senses, a familiar voice suddenly came from above her head.

Hearing this voice, Mito Yumei subconsciously raised her head, and then saw Baimu staring at the beef hot pot on her cooking table with great interest.

Quickly wiping away the tears that were about to seep out of the corners of her eyes, Mito Yumei immediately stood up from the ground and snorted coldly,"Are you here to laugh at me?"

Even if she lost to the other party in cooking skills, Mito Yumei would never allow the other party to insult her cooking. In her opinion, Baimu's expression was a provocation to her A5 beef

"Of course not, what are you thinking." Bai Mu waved his hand and pointed at the beef hot pot on the cooking table and said,"Can I try your cooking?"

"Huh?"

Mito Yumei was stunned for a moment after hearing this request, then suddenly reacted and said with gritted teeth,"Are you trying to find faults in my cooking? And then take the opportunity to ridicule me?"

"No, can you please stop imagining everyone to be so evil?" Bai Mu looked at Mito Yumei speechlessly,"Do I look like someone who would do that kind of thing?""

Of course I do!

Mito Yumei subconsciously replied in her heart

"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent." Seeing Mito Yumei suddenly quiet down, Bai Mu took a small bowl from the side and filled the beef hot pot in front of him with it, and even picked out the meat.

In fact, as a SI|CHUAN, Bai Mu's resistance to hot pot is very low. As soon as he saw Mito Yumei prepare the soup base, he couldn't help but want to have a pot of hot pot, just to see what A5-level beef would taste like in hot pot. Originally, he was waiting for the judges to finish their own hot pot and let Mito Yumei serve the dishes before he took a bowl, but now Judging from the looks of the judges, they probably won't get that chance.

Bai Mu's actions naturally attracted the attention of the entire audience. For some reason, this transfer student suddenly ran to the direction of Mito Yumei, who was no longer in the spotlight, and even served a bowl of her cooking... Did he think that the blow he had already dealt to her was not enough, and wanted to personally go up and mock her? This... this is too much, isn't it?

Although they were very dissatisfied with Bai Mu's"atrocities", no one dared to stand up and speak for Mito Yumei at this moment. It was because... the strength of this transfer student was simply too terrifying, and had reached their level... It was totally incomprehensible. In Totsuki, such people were all strong without exception, and no one wanted to anger this"big devil" at this time.

They could only pray for Mito Yumei in their hearts.

On the other hand, Shiraki picked up a piece of thinly sliced beef with chopsticks.

He was surprised to find that the beef, which had been drained of the soup, broke easily with just one pick, and a lot of juice flowed out of it.

When he put it in his mouth, the perfect temperature treatment made the beef very soft and tender, and it slid down the tip of his tongue in an instant.

In addition, it was perfectly matched with the soup base made from beef bones, full of meaty aroma.

It made him feel much more comfortable.

Although Mito Yumei looked unconvinced on the surface, she couldn't help but swallow nervously when she saw Bai Mu really start to taste her food.

What kind of evaluation would he give? Disgusting? Or would he point out that he made some mistakes when cooking the beef?...The heat should be fine, right? Is the temperature of the beef also well controlled? And the others too...

After finishing all the beef in his bowl, Bai Mu put down his bowl and chopsticks, opened his mouth, as if he wanted to make some comments.

Mito Yumei's nervousness reached its peak at this moment.

"It's just as I thought...your 'beef hot pot' is very good."

"Huh?" Mito Yumei was stunned for half a second, and seeing Bai Mu's expression that didn't seem to be sarcastic, her nervousness just now eased a little, but then she thought... why should she be nervous?!

"Oh, can I have another bowl?"

Mito Yumei, who couldn't figure out why she was so nervous, suddenly heard Bai Mu's words and shuddered, then stammered in response.

"Whatever, whatever you want... I admit defeat in this food battle, but don't think you can do whatever you want just because you won!"

After saying this, Mito Yumei ran down the stage with a red face. She still didn't understand why she was so nervous talking to that transfer student, but when she realized it, her cheeks were already red because of her nervousness. She couldn't stand on the stage any longer in such an embarrassing situation!

"Eh? Mito-san seemed to have given up? Great... Oh no, the winner of this food battle is Shiraki-san! Let's congratulate him!"

Kawashima Rei, who was still on the phone with the actual management bureau to report the situation, saw that Mito Yumei had already run away. After a moment of hesitation, she immediately announced the final result happily. Finally, she didn't have to mediate between the three judges!
