Is this cartoonist mentally ill?

"By the way, Ito-san, what do you like to eat?"

Lin Qingshan held Pochita in his arms, looked at Ayumi Ito, and said carelessly.

There are three of them and one dog at the moment. One seems to be a casual young man at home, one is an elite female OL working in the workplace, and the other is a young and beautiful female college student. Such a strange-looking combination is walking on the commercial street in the center of Shanghai. .

They look like...people from three worlds.

"Me? As for me, I want to eat sukiyaki..."

In fact, Ito Ayumi could have said it politely if she wanted to, but for some reason, the image of sukiyaki suddenly appeared in her mind at this time, and her mouth was about to drool, and she said subconsciously.

"Sukiyaki pot?"

Gu Qianli said curiously.

In this world, because Japan has become a region, culture has become a niche culture. It is not as terrifying as Japan’s cultural invasion in the previous life.

Lin Qingshan, who is familiar with Japanese culture through Japanese comics, immediately explained, "Qianli You can think of it as a kind of hot pot, but the taste is very bland, and the bottom of the pot is just Japanese light soy sauce."

"But the taste is closer to ours, a little sweeter."

Gu Qianli suddenly realized, "I see, but we don't seem to have the so-called Sukiyaki pot here..."

"Yeah, no..."

Ayumi Ito has been coming to Magic City for a while, so she can be sure that there are really no Japanese restaurants in Magic City.

Don’t even think about the sukiyaki.

She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"That's all. We can do it ourselves."

Lin Qingshan suddenly patted his chest and said.

"do it yourself?"

Ayumi Ito and Gu Qianli said curiously in unison.

"Teacher Qingshan...I...I don't know how to make sukiyaki either..."

Ito Ayumi said a little embarrassed at this time.

"You can't, I can."

Lin Qingshan blinked and said.

"Qingshan...do you know how to make a sukiyaki pot?"

Gu Qianli looked at Lin Qingshan doubtfully.

Lin Qingshan patted his chest again and showed a strong smile, "Don't worry, I can cook for myself, and I am proficient in the cuisine of various countries... well, various regions!"

In his previous life, he rented a house alone. As a person living alone, how could he not cook by himself?

Even if you don’t know how to cook at first, when you live alone and see various food videos on the Internet, how could you not be tempted to try cooking it yourself?

Lin Qingshan was like this in his previous life, a man of action who did what he said.

He has tried and cooked Thai flavors, Japanese cuisine, Southeast Asian satay barbecue, Spanish seafood rice, Korean army hot pot, Cantonese roast chicken, Beijing roast duck, etc. at home.

As long as it is a dish that is more popular, he has made it.

Sukiyaki shouldn't be too simple. The ingredients and methods are average. Lin Qingshan has never failed.

"I didn't expect... Teacher Qingshan to be so powerful..."

Ayumi Ito exclaimed with little stars in her eyes.

"Hehe... As long as we find a self-service barbecue restaurant first, we can buy a bottle of sweet soy sauce. It may not have the same flavor as sukiyaki, but we can use other ingredients to extract the flavor and freshness."

Lin Qingshan chuckled and said.

Ayumi Ito suddenly thought of something at this time, shrank her head and said, "Teacher Aoyama...don't you need to ask Miss Chisato what you think?"

"Thousands of miles away..."

Lin Qingshan said, "You don't have to worry about this. Qianli prefers vegetable salads, and his favorite drink is orange-flavored soda."

Gu Qianli was stunned for a moment, looked at Lin Qingshan, and asked, "Qingshan, how do you know my taste..."

"After eating so many meals from you, I must pay attention to your hobbies. Dogs should also pay attention to their master's hobbies, right? Right, Pochita!"

Lin Qingshan asked Pochita in his arms.

"Woof woof woof woof!"

Pochta responded cheerfully, wagging her tail.

"Woof woof!"

Lin Qingshan raised his head, shouted twice to Gu Qianli, and said, "Pochita told me, this is it, Ah Shan!"

Gu Qianli and Ito Ayumi looked at Lin Qingshan with strange expressions.

Especially Gu Qianli... Why does Lin Qingshan really seem to think of himself as a dog she raised...

…

Arriving at a barbecue buffet in the city center, Lin Qingshan spent 500 yuan per person and 1,500 yuan in total, treating Gu Qianli and Ayumi Ito to a meal without feeling any distress.

He really didn't feel bad.

After all, his half-month royalties are 6,000 yuan, and he feels that as a time traveler and system host, he will definitely make more than this amount of money in the future.

In this case, why do you need to worry about this little money?

And there is a reason why it is expensive... No, this is a magical city, there is no reason why things should be expensive!

But before going into the barbecue restaurant, he went to the mall next door and bought a bottle of "sweet soy sauce."

It's actually steamed fish with soy sauce.

Then he hid the steamed fish with soy sauce in his arms, and with Pochita's cooperation, brought the steamed fish with soy sauce into the barbecue restaurant.

Damn it! He spent 1,500 yuan, and he couldn't bring any other food in.

However, Lin Qingshan still felt a little better about the barbecue buffet worth 1,500 yuan.

"Okay, okay, watch me perform!"

Lin Qingshan took the ingredients and began to heat up the oil in the stone pot that was supposed to be a small hot pot, and then fried the fat beef until fragrant.

Then pour in the hidden steamed fish soy sauce and add some water.

Then came the other ingredients, including scallions, onions, tofu, shredded konjac, enoki mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, carrots, chrysanthemum, baby cabbage and other vegetarian dishes.

Then came the other fresh meat, and finally he topped it with sugar, chopped green onion and vinegar.

This unauthentic "Sukiyaki Pot" is ready.

"By the way, there's also this, sterile raw eggs!"

Lin Qingshan cracked an egg into a bowl and handed it to Ayumi Ito.

Although Japanese culture is not very popular, sterile eggs are still produced in Shanghai for some reason.

Maybe it’s because of…food safety concerns?

It's weird anyway.

Ayumi Ito looked at the unfamiliar sukiyaki in front of her, but she could still see some vague shadows, and suddenly she missed her hometown.

This is probably the so-called homesickness felt by wanderers who work outside the home.

She immediately picked up a piece of beef with her chopsticks, stirred it into raw eggs for a few times, and then put it in her mouth...

"Good... delicious..."

Ayumi Ito suddenly burst into tears.

Although the taste is not exactly the same as the sukiyaki that my mother made in my memory, it is really delicious...

“If it’s delicious, eat more!”

Lin Qingshan waved his hand and said, "By the way, there is also Qianli's fruit and vegetable salad. I specially picked a lot of lettuce and fairy fruit. By the way, I saw that there is purple cabbage in it that you hate, so I opened it in advance."

"..."

Gu Qianli shook her head. Although it was good that Lin Qingshan was so considerate, but combined with what Lin Qingshan said on the road just now, how could she feel...

Even stranger.
