Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"En? What's the matter?" Liu Maoxing asked Subaru Misaku with a glance.

"No, nothing..."

Just when everyone was wondering why Misaku Subaru was so scared all of a sudden, they found that "Senior Sayuri" was looking at the cooking table in front of Liu Maoxing with twinkling eyes.

Because Liu Maoxing was in the corner of the front row, after Subaru Misaku approached, because of his size, other people's view of Liu Maoxing's cooking table was completely blocked.

It wasn't until Subaru Misaku couldn't help taking a few steps back that everyone saw that in front of Liu Maoxing was a white "statue". , or shake the cattail fan...

Looking carefully at the Doufumo next to it, you will know that this white statue is the result of Liu Maoxing's sculpture with "tofu"!

"These are the seven nobles in my hometown, 1,700 years ago, because they often gathered in the bamboo forest, they are called the 'Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest' in history!" Liu Maoxing said casually to the senior in front of the bed.

"It's perfect! How did you do it?" The senior in front of the bed sighed in disbelief.

"It's just the basic skills. As long as the knife skills are solid enough, you can do it... But if it's just that, it's good as an ornamental dish in the banquet. Since the seniors in front of the bed don't plan to try it, I won't do other processing." Liu Maoxing Said indifferently.

Basic skills? Even the former senior who is a graduate in front of him, his knife skills are considered top-notch in the same class, but he doesn't have such "basic skills"!

Just tofu sculptures can be done in front of the bed, but even if you don’t use a professional carving knife, you need at least a smaller paring knife. It’s impossible to use a Chinese kitchen knife to make carvings like Liu Maoxing. It can't be done in just one minute.

A super one-star recipe is not enough to surpass the graduates, but it can be said that in terms of knife skills, the "super class" has already surpassed the graduates!

That's right, what Liu Maoxing is using now is only the "Superior One Star" recipe "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove".

Even in the comics, this is not considered a dish, it is just a small test of skill by the little master in order to gain the trust of the other party and obtain the qualification of representative.

In the Manchu banquet, this carving is regarded as a decorative dish.

"Am I qualified?" Liu Maoxing asked the senior in front of the bed.

"Of course, Liu Maoxing, right? Congratulations, you are the first to pass the examination!" said Sayuri in front of the bed.

"Then you can leave first?"

"Can."

Looking at the time, Liu Maoxing found that it was not yet half past eight, and he actually finished the assessment in less than an hour of class!

This should be the most leisurely morning for Liu Maoxing since the "staying and training"...

However, it seems that every time he is leisurely, he will encounter some troubles. For example, now Liu Maoxing was walking on the way to the meeting room, but in the corridor, he had a "narrow encounter" with Kojiro Shinomiya!

The two paused awkwardly at the same time, and then continued to walk forward pretending to be natural...

After all, they just ate the halberd last night, and both of them are a little embarrassed now. Sigong is extremely uncomfortable because he lost to the first-year student. Although Liu Maoxing used tricks, losing is losing.

As for Liu Maoxing, it was because he won that he was not aboveboard, and now he was a little embarrassed to see the "Lord of Sufferers"!

Just when the two of them wanted to pass by each other pretending not to see it, suddenly the door next to them opened.

It was Gin Dojima, Hiromi Sena, Seki Shouhei, Fuyumi Mizuhara, and Mikyuko who came out, and they realized that this floor was the monitoring room. course.

Because graduates are not completely selfless as mentors, many of them are chefs and shop managers of restaurants, and they will dig out some outstanding students to recruit.

Seeing the embarrassment of Liu Maoxing and Si Gong, Gan couldn't help complaining: "Hey, why do you two look like high school students who dare not meet the next day because they just confessed their love the day before?"

"..." Liu Maoxing was speechless about Qian Ri Xiangzi's metaphor.

"Woo!" Regarding the analogy of Qian Ri Xiangzi, Shinomiya's "hand knife" is the answer to...

"By the way, why did you come out so soon? Could it be that you were eliminated? Huh, how about going to work in the gatekeeper's shop? He is quite optimistic about you!" Gan was gloating.

"Why do you always feel that you are much 'younger', Senior Sister, when Shinomiya-senpai is here?" Obviously, in front of us, we all have the mature appearance of Yamato Nadeko, but Liu Maoxing only said the second half of the sentence in his heart.

"Woo...why it's me again!" Xiangzi Qianhina was "innocently" stabbed by Si Gong again.

Liu Maoxing looked at them suspiciously: "Didn't the senior watch the surveillance before?" In this case, why didn't he know about the assessment that Liu Maoxing completed in advance?

"Ahem, usually we just watch some noteworthy assessments!" Dojima Gin's tone was unusually evasive.

Liu Maoxing suddenly seemed to realize something, and said strangely: "It can't be because of the senior in front of the bed, right?"

"how come!"

"Of course not..."

"Although Bedqian doesn't run his own restaurant, he is a top banquet designer and a state banquet consultant. It's a pity..."

Dojima Gin's words were still unfinished, but Mizuhara Fuyumi, who had always been innocent, said it without any scruples: "It's a pity that he is a pervert!"

"Uh, that's not what I meant." Dojima Gin denied.

"By the way, Mr. Dojima, we still have something to do, right? It's better not to keep everyone waiting." Guan Shouping changed the topic.

"Sinomiya also come together. Today is the day when several chefs apply to join the resort, and they will be 'eating halberds'." Dojima said.

"Huh? There are already five of you, right?" Sigong said.

Although Liu Maoxing didn't know what they were talking about, he heard that it seemed to be related to "eating halberds", which meant that an odd number of judges was needed.

"Liu Maoxing, I heard that you also have the 'God's Tongue'?" Guan Shouping asked suddenly.

Seemingly hearing what Guan Shouping meant, the others couldn't help but look at him in surprise, as if they didn't expect Guan Shouping to be so optimistic about Liu Maoxing.

"God's Tongue...you can't say that, it should be stronger than the usual 'God's Tongue'!" Liu Maoxing looked like he didn't know what modesty was.

"Then give it a try, and count him in!" Guan Shouping suggested.

Dojima Silver thought about it for a while, and then agreed: "Okay, just treat it as a reward for completing the morning assessment ahead of time, anyway, the time will end before the afternoon class starts...

But you have to think about it, this time is different from ordinary food judges, because there will be a food halberd-style ranking assessment for the cooks of the resort itself and the cooks who want to join. Convinced 'why' will do!

People who don’t have a lot of tasting experience and can only feel ordinary “delicious” and “not delicious” are not competent. If you make a mistake and shame the resort, I will directly let you To you, dropping out of school means that there is an extra assessment. "

Liu Maoxing asked with shining eyes: "Are there many people participating in the halberd eating? Can we eat a lot of delicious food?" It seems that Dojima Gin's words behind him have been ignored by him.

Dojima Gin smiled when he heard the words: "Oh, that's right."

Liu Maoxing completely ignored the "dangerousness" that Dojima Gin said, causing several others to look sideways, and secretly said: Among the cooks, it is rare to have such a strong "greedy" heart for food!

On the way to the assessment hall, Liu Maoxing suddenly remembered that he hadn't had time to ask Dojima Yin last night because of Mr. Chapel's appearance.

"By the way, Dojima-senpai, yesterday you said you saw a cook who used that 'barbaric' way to eat halberds? Can you tell me who it is?" Liu Maoxing asked.

A flash of memory flashed in Dojima Gin's eyes. It seemed that he was someone who had a good relationship with him, but he didn't answer directly: "He is a very rude guy, but I heard that he has learned to restrain himself now." Stabbed... It's too early for you now, maybe you will have a chance to see him in the future!"

Liu Maoxing saw that Dojima Yin was unwilling to answer directly, so he didn't ask any more questions, but he also heard something...

rude guy? Learn to restrain the barbs on your body? In other words, is it a person who has friendship with Dojima Yin, is very strong, and has changed his cooking style?

Liu Maoxing always felt that it seemed a bit of a coincidence to say it this way!

However, if it is that person, with his culinary skills and creativity, it is not unusual to be able to comprehend the profound meaning of "taste seal".

"But let me give you a reminder. It is definitely not a wise choice to use the 'sealed taste' as a magic weapon to win the victory. It won't be like yesterday every time. The right time and place cooperate with you. Once there is a problem in a certain link, The 'seal of taste' cuisine is doomed! And the 'seal of taste' is not a panacea, even yesterday, if Shinomiya showed all his strength, he could break your taste seal!" Dojima Gin said.

Liu Maoxing naturally accepted it. Although Dojima Gin and the others attributed the "taste seal" tactic to the fact that soldiers never tire of cheating, they still did not advocate it.

Liu Maoxing secretly regretted that he was interrupted by Chapelle yesterday, so he couldn't taste the dishes of the fourth palace, and he didn't know what level his "not exerting all his strength" was...

When he came to the assessment hall, Liu Maoxing discovered that the number of people participating in the assessment was more than he had imagined, about 20 to 30 people, and there were also six cooks wearing chef uniforms with resort armbands. Stand by!

Guan Shouping explained on the side: "Before, they were allowed to cook what they are best at without restriction, and then we will taste the cooking of the six resort chefs. Among the six chefs, they are divided into first-class according to the internal rating of the resort. , second class, and third class, among which three persons are in the third class, two persons are in the second class, and one person is in the first class. Afterwards, each time we taste the dishes of the appraised person, we will vote one by one to judge whether he can rank among the six resort chefs. How many people, the one who surpasses the bottom of them can be hired, otherwise he can be invited back."
