Him and their stars

A young captain with brown hair and a slightly elegant and bookish air, named Michiel de Kent, is currently the chief clerk of the Equipment Logistics Department of the Military Command Headquarters, and it is said that he will become the head of a certain coordination group before next year. Or, he may leave the Earth Headquarters and go to a large military region to serve as the logistics director.

A man with passionate red hair who seems to be born with a human spirit. Naturally, he is the famous Captain Horatio Venn. He is currently serving in the Community's First Space Fleet, which is also commonly known as the "Solar System Fleet" or "Home Fleet". "Serving in China. He has only graduated half a year ago, and is now the second officer of the destroyer Marseille 122. It is said that in the second half of the year, he will board the dreadnought "Independence", the flagship of the Solar System Fleet, and become a member of the fleet headquarters.

No matter how you look at it, these two young people who graduated from the military academy do have a bright future.

However, they do pale in comparison to someone who almost made the personnel organization system a laughing stock. At least, when I just graduated half a year ago, the gap between the two sides was only one level, but now it has widened to two levels.

Horatio Wayne looked at the triumphant Yu Lian and gritted his teeth for a few seconds. However, it can be seen that his official career as an officer has indeed made him grow a lot. He quickly adjusted his state, took a deep breath, and gave a neat military salute.

"Salute to you, sir. After leaving the academy, I see that you are still as elegant as before. No, you are more energetic than when you were in the academy. I am really impressed by you."

Student Wayne's progress is really great. No, in just seven or eight months, I could even speak in a scene, and I could even add a little bit of sarcasm to it.

"Really, are you a child? We are all classmates, what's the point of being so polite? Brother Horatio, I don't remember raising you to be so philistine! Can society change a person so much? ?"

Ever since, Wayne began to gnash his teeth again. After all, he is a silly son with an innocent heart who was born into a rich family. No matter how fast he progresses, he is really incomparable with a certain veteran.

"Don't tell anyone about the other, you two are at most eight years old." Kent said from the side.

"You don't understand this, Mihir. Men will always be young until they die, and they will only show their true side in front of good friends. No matter we are eight or eighty years old, on the one hand, it shows I also have a pure heart, partly because Brother Wayne and I are in love!"

"Who, who wants to fall in love with you? I would rather fight the empire again."

"Look, if I am eight years old, this guy is only three years old at most."

Horatio Wayne suddenly realized that if he started a lawsuit, he would never be this guy's opponent. He decided to shut up for the time being. He just sneered and pulled out his chair. Sitting opposite Yu Lian, looking at the tense look on his face, I accidentally thought it was a gang negotiation.

"I'm here to eat. It would be really embarrassing if I got full from you." He sneered.

Well, classmate Wayne is indeed growing up very fast! Everyone has learned to make progress by retreating.

Kent also sat down next to him and introduced enthusiastically: "The headquarters cafeteria has always been very good. There are three to four set meals to choose from every day, including Eastern and Western cuisines. Of course, you can also order an order. It just costs a little more, but it’s much cheaper than restaurants outside.”

But in this officers' restaurant attached to the military command headquarters, there is no charge for eating the set menu, but you need to pay extra for ordering dishes. This is why Yu Lian ordered one from A to D.

"Besides, it always tastes good." Kent added.

As mentioned before, the Kent family where Mihir was born is also a well-known top wealthy family. In addition to the shipbuilding and shipping industries, the family's business includes large chain hotels and restaurants. In fact, the Kent family only has equity and a high say in Brooklyn Shipyard and Solar System Shipping Group, but they are not yet in control. However, they own more than 12,000 hotels and star-rated restaurants across the galaxy. In the Starlight Hotel Group, he has an emperor-like status.

All in all, as the young master of a hotel industry tycoon, Mihir Kent should be used to seeing the best chefs and top-notch dishes in the entire galaxy. Since he thinks it tastes good, it must be delicious.

Soon, Set A was served, which was a very oriental style beef ramen with fried dumplings and side dishes.

"Oh, meal A is ramen! Mr. Ramsay is the best at this set of dishes."

As expected of the young master of a hotel industry tycoon, he fell in love with a chef with military rank and organization so quickly? Are you planning to poach the government?

After hearing what Yu Lian said, Kent admitted frankly: "I do have this plan, but it is not for my family's company, but for our Youth Friends Club."

Yu Lian was slightly startled, and then he realized that he seemed to have formed a youth organization group with these people, and he seemed to be the president of this group.

"Ha, of course, you are just busy provoking the Empire in the Far Coast Sector to show off. I'm afraid you have forgotten about our Lion Heart Society a long time ago? Just give me the president as soon as possible. "Wayne sneered.

"It's called the Youth Club, thank you! It's a bit like a pioneer. The Lion Heart Society sounds like a secret society formed by the second generation of powerful families, or a group of treasures who were born from the second generation of embryo-killing children. Animal Poaching Group.”

Wayne thought about my bad temper, but it was really hard to do anything in public.

"And I haven't told you that our Youth League is still in its early stages. In the absence of a comprehensive organizational program, it is indeed not suitable for immediate expansion. The first batch of core personnel must be carefully observed. One A mature social group with ideals must establish moral standards in the early stages of its establishment. In addition, it’s not like I haven’t done anything. Senior Sister Eleanor has agreed to join. I found it at the Red Maple Factory A few of our peers, although they are not the glamorous-sounding 'Moon People' like us, have confirmed in their eyes that they are fellow travelers."

"Oh, I thought you were only planning to expand our organization in the military." Kent smiled.

"Then it really becomes the Showa era...ah, the rebel organization before the alliance. Everyone has the ideal of saving the country, but they don't want to establish a military government, right?"

Wayne, who was the most military-like person present, immediately agreed: "The Lion Heart Association should not be an illegal organization of soldiers secretly collaborating together. Although I have developed all the courageous people among the junior students into our reserve members, but all those with the heart of a lion should be our comrades."

You are just prepared to have a hard time with this chuunibyou name, right?

"That's why I'm communicating with Ramsay. Even if we don't meet you today, Wayne and I are going to find you tomorrow."

Yu Lian nodded and took a bite of noodles. If the Lionheart Club's courage and leadership is Wayne, its brains is Hachiman, and its reliability must be Kent. Since he said that, there must be a good reason.

Kent looked at Yu Lian's bold eating style and suddenly felt hungry, so he said: "I also want an A set meal. We can talk while eating."

After the two of them finished ordering, Kent continued to explain: "Mr. Ramsay is a recent graduate of the Culinary Institute and is now a part-time teacher there. Have you heard of this name?"

Yu Lian blinked to confirm that he had never heard of it, but he had an inexplicable desire to complain.

"I guess you will hear about it soon. This academy is a prestigious academy modeled after the Imperial Model Academy, specializing in training top chefs. However, their graduates must work for top hotels. It does not have much reputation among the people for serving wealthy families. If you are not in this field, it is indeed difficult to hear of it."

Yu Lian nodded and started eating dumplings. He still doesn't understand why Kent said this to him.

"That college, in order to ensure its reputation in the upper class, adopts various elimination systems. Those at the bottom of the mid-term and final exams will be expelled, those who make mistakes in school activities will be expelled, and those who fail to meet the teachers' requirements during class will be expelled. Even if you lose the cooking competition between students, you will be expelled. Anyway, the graduation rate every year is less than 30%."

"This isn't education, it's cultivating Gu." Yu Lian couldn't help but said. In a college that is easy on entry and strict on exit, the graduation rate should not be this kind.

Of course, this may be because the upper class does not actually need so many so-called "elite" chefs.

"The concept of the college these days is that only the elites selected from ten thousand are qualified to become their graduates and qualified to serve the so-called upper class society. In that college, the students are used to using the highest-grade ingredients and learning all the Even if the overly refined cooking method is eliminated, I find that I can hardly cook home-cooked meals, and I can't even adapt to opening a family roadside restaurant, so I have to start from scratch." Kent laughed.

"Well, then the tuition is free of charge, right? There are actually people who go to such a stupid academy!"

"However, there are indeed many people who go there. After all, as long as you survive, you can get a high salary. We have several hotels where the executive chefs graduated from."

Yu Lian curled his lips and began to scoop out the dried vegetables and bamboo shoots in the soup noodles.

The taste of this ramen is not at all the so-called high-end quality of a star-rated restaurant. It is bland, delicious and warm.

"However, you are right, this is either education or cultivating. So last year, when Mr. Ramsay joined the school as a part-time teacher, he talked with the students and teachers who had long been very dissatisfied with this system. They united and drove away the previous school authorities."

"How to catch up? It can't be a cooking competition, right? Relying on the strength and honor of the cook to make the other party feel ashamed and surrender?" Yu Lian smiled.

"No, they went on strike and closed the school. They occupied the teaching building and demanded the refund of tuition fees and mental damages for students who were unjustly expelled. They also faced off with the police invited by the school for nearly half a year. During this period, they were pinched from outside. When water and electricity were cut off and supplies were cut off, I grew vegetables on the college’s hydroponic farm, used modified machines to generate electricity, and organized myself to continue learning.”

Yu Lian suddenly felt that he was no longer sleepy.

"Now, the purpose of the academy has become: to become a cook who makes everyone feel happy!"

Yu Lian looked at the rich milky white soup in the bowl of the sea, and his interest became even stronger.

"Is this what you call a revolution?" Kent laughed.

"You understand so quickly!" Yu Lian sighed, feeling that the road ahead was quite happy.

Just as Kent was about to answer, he saw a service robot already carrying another dinner plate.

"...Horatio, did you order this?"

Horatio just shook his head, but heard that Yu Lian had already drank all the ramen soup, and then said: "What a happy thick soup. Oh, that one is mine too..."

Although Yu Lian is not a professional gourmet, after all, he has eaten without hesitation and enjoyed the moment of healing the body and mind with food alone. He does have some ideas about taste.

The taste of the ramen just now was almost perfect, whether it was soup, noodles, meat or vegetables. Carefully marinated pieces of meat float like huge icebergs in the ocean of soup. With a flick of chopsticks, the noodles, moistened by the soup, look like the ancient city of Atlantis that has been hidden in the sea for tens of thousands of years. Every strand of gluten records the vicissitudes of history.

When I put them into my mouth together, it was like the nature and civilization of this planet collapsed on the tip of my tongue. However, this is not destruction, but the integration of me and everything on this planet. What a collapse of happiness!

"Ah! My stomach, what does it want next?" Yu Liandao said.

Kent and Wayne looked at each other and couldn't help but move their chairs away a little.

Then, Yu Lian finished the white rice and stewed chicken soup of Set B, and the baked snails with bread and butter in Set C, under the astonished eyes of these two people. When he started eating the Mediterranean-style seafood fried rice of Set D, even the orderly sergeant in charge of the restaurant showed a shocked expression, and then came over to apologize.

"Why apologize?" Yu Lian didn't quite understand.

"I just saw that you ordered four set meals, and I thought you were a commander who pays attention to pomp and circumstance. I have seen too many such commanders during this period. But after all, I work in the kitchen, so I really can't stand it. People waste food. That’s why I said bad things about you in my heart." said the service sergeant.

This was a corporal of the same age as Yu Lian and the others, but when faced with the three officers who had a formidable aura, although he was a little nervous, he acted very magnanimously.

"But if you didn't come to apologize, wouldn't we know about it? But if you come here to apologize now, maybe you will offend us."

"If you are really the kind of officer who pays attention to ostentation and wastes food, of course I will not let you know. However, you are not. On the contrary, you are a gentleman who shows the greatest respect for food. Even if you dislike me for this, you must I'm here to apologize." The corporal was obviously a smart man and knew that Yu Lian was joking with him.

After all, he was still a young man in his early twenties. Seeing that these officers were of the same age and seemed quite approachable, he said a few more words: "The set menu in the officers' restaurant is free. In the final analysis, it is the people's responsibility to protect the homeland and the country." The preferential treatment of the soldiers. However, if the soldiers forget this and squander this preferential treatment wantonly, in the long run, what they may lose is the support of the people... Sorry! This, sir, I really am not lecturing people, Just, just..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be too complacent.

But Yu Lian was already interested and glanced at Kent and Wayne: "Are you Mr. Ramsay, the chef here?"

"My subordinate, I'm the sergeant major's assistant Aldini... Uh, please be patient, sirs!" The corporal remembered that he still had a job, or maybe he felt embarrassed, so he quickly saluted and ran away.

Yu Lian looked at the young sergeant's back, then glanced at Kent: "Seriously, Mihir, you understand very thoroughly."

"Yes, even a few pamphlets really make me feel like I have a lump in my throat, a thorn in my back, and I feel like I'm sitting on pins and needles!" Kent shrugged: "According to your theory, Wayne and I don't have to become historical opposites. ?"
