Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"Liu Maoxing, is it you who want to see me? The afternoon class will start in 20 minutes, why are you in such a hurry?" In his office, Dojima Yin asked suspiciously to Liu Maoxing who hurried to see me during the lunch break .

"Dojima-senpai, I actually discovered something..."

When Dojima Yin was born in the third year of Yuanyue, Nakiri Ji was born in the first year, but at that time his surname was not "Nakiri", and when Nakiri Ji was born in the first year, he was already ranked third among the top ten, second only to Yu Dojima Gin and Soshin's father Joichiro.

For some things about Nakie Ji, Dojima Gin knows better than Liu Maoxing, and what Liu Maoxing has to do now is to identify six of the current ten heroes who have already been in contact with Nakie Ji!

In particular, among the cooks of Yuanyue's family, Rui Shan, who has a wide network of contacts, is also one of the six!

I believe Dojima Gin will understand what happened next...

As for why Liu Maoxing knew about this? Liu Maoxing's own explanation is that because he was targeted by Ruishan, he did some investigations and found out by coincidence.

Perhaps Dojima Gin will have doubts about this statement, but Liu Maoxing only needs him to be vigilant.

As for the other industries of the Yuanyue family, they probably have connections with each other, and I believe Dojima Gin will tell them about it!

That night, when another chef in the resort privately copied today's Chef Tanaka's course records, he didn't notice at all that his every move had been clearly seen by Dojima Gin through surveillance .

Of course, although he knew that he was doing something against Liu Maoxing, compared to the rebellion of the Ten Heroes, this was not a big deal at all, so Dojima Yin only informed Liu Maoxing afterwards, and did not startle the snake...

And I also look forward to finding more people by following the clues, and seeing how many of my chefs are secretly thinking about other things!

"It's been a long time since I saw Mr. Dojima so serious!" Hiromi sighed looking at Dojima's appearance.

At this time, there were only the two of them in the monitoring room. The lazy Hiromi was also a graduate of Yuanyue, and before graduation, Dojima Gin paid more attention to him. He was invited by Dojima to the resort at the same time he graduated, so Dojima Gin believes that he has nothing to do with Ruishan and Nakiri Ji...

Not to mention Hiromi in his heart, secretly thinking that some people are going to be unlucky, and the time went back to 12:25 noon. As soon as Liu Maoxing came out of Dojima Yin's office, he ran at full speed to the afternoon cooking room.

Finally, at 12:29, he managed to get into the cooking room before the instructor was about to close the door!

"Sorry, I was almost late!" Liu Maoxing said apologetically to the instructor.

This time, Liu Maoxing, the tutor, did not recognize him. Judging by his age, he was older than any graduate he had seen before...or rather old!

He may be in his fifties or sixties, but his chest is straight, and he is tall and thin. In terms of height alone, he should be about the same height as Dojima. He has brown hair, around his mouth and chin. It looks like a brown beard that hasn't been cut for a long time, but is well-groomed.

Judging from the look, one can tell at a glance that this is a very patient old man!

However, although he spoke slowly, his tone was very serious: "There is nothing to 'sorry', you are still half a minute away from being late, if you are really late, even if you kneel down and admit your mistake, I will not let you in."

"Eh..." Liu Maoxing didn't know how to answer the old man's words for a while.

Although Liu Maoxing was surprised by his age, he was not in doubt. After all, Yuanyue students have entered their class for 92 years, and the school has been established for nearly a hundred years. It is normal to have some older graduates.

It's just that at such an age, as a tutor, to participate in the "residential training", it seems a bit maverick.

"Okay, it seems that no one is late this time, so hurry up too! There is only one vacant seat..." the old man said.

Judging from the two-person cooking table, it is obvious that it is a course that needs cooperation, but Liu Maoxing has come late, and there is no room for choosing a partner.

It turned out that Liu Maoxing thought that the remaining student must be the bottom one in cooking, so no one wanted to form a team with him, and he was almost about to "fly solo". Now that Liu Maoxing is here, he should be very happy...

Firstly, he didn’t need to complete the tasks of two people by himself, and secondly, Liu Maoxing was also confident. Although his popularity was not very good, he was still well-known among the students at that time, and he didn’t have to worry about passing the problem!

If the other party is really a student with the lowest culinary skills, maybe he will really think so...

Who knew that Liu Maoxing had just walked past the old mentor, and when he saw the only student who was "flying solo", he was slightly taken aback, only to see that the only person in the corner who did not form a team was a female student!

Abnormally fair skin, white hair, and the same pair of ruby-like eyes as Erina, all told Liu Maoxing the identity of this female student.

"Tch, really! It's something that I can do alone, and assistants will only get in the way!" Alice muttered dissatisfiedly, as if she was disappointed that Liu Maoxing arrived on time!

"Nakiri Alice? My name is Liu Maoxing, please take care of me for the next four and a half hours!" Liu Maoxing pretended not to hear her complaint, and greeted her friendly first.

"Liu Maoxing? Are you that Liu Maoxing?"

"Uh, although I don't know which one you are talking about, I haven't heard of anyone with the same name as me in the first year."

Alice upgraded the way she looked at passer-by A to the way she looked at rare animals in the zoo, but then said: "It's easy to talk about taking care of you, but it's agreed in advance that you can just watch from the side for a while, don't get in the way! These delicate big guys are not something you can figure out, don't break them!"

It was only then that Liu Maoxing discovered that there were several large unknown machines around Alice's cooking table, and there were also several small tools that had never been seen before on the cooking table...

In short, it's right that they all exude an unknown aura!

Liu Maoxing couldn't help but glanced at these things strangely, as if he suspected that Dojima Gin was also playing the trick of "going through the back door" and actually prepared these things for Nakiri Alice...

Compared with other students' kitchen utensils, this is simply the difference between copper knives and stone axes and Gundam.

Yes, Nakiri Alice, you can tell from the name, like Erina, she is the granddaughter of Nakiri Senzaemon. Son, so the two women have the same surname, they are still cousins.

When I was a child, I had a good relationship with Erina. Although I was always dissatisfied in my heart, everyone would always praise Erina when they saw her, but it only aroused her childish fighting spirit, and did not produce anything too negative. Emotions.

However, because her mother is Danish, and her father is suspected of disagreeing with Senzaemon's philosophy, when she was young, her father took the whole family to Northern Europe to set up a research institute to conduct research on "new cuisine".

And Erina's father, Nakiri Ji, in order to completely control his daughter, deliberately and secretly cut off the correspondence between the two, which caused Erina and this cousin to have some emotional estrangement...

Alice seemed to see the look in Liu Maoxing's eyes, and said unhappily: "What are you thinking? Isn't it written in the guidebook of 'Residency and Training'! You can bring your own 'kitchen utensils'! Look, didn't they also bring their own kitchen knife?"

"..." Liu Maoxing was speechless, indeed, these can also be counted as kitchen utensils.

Seeing that the time was up, the old man stood on the podium in front of the cooking room and said, "Okay, everyone is here, so let me introduce myself first. I am Taro Miyamoto, a graduate of the forty-ninth class of Yuanyue Academy." , this time as a mentor, I will take on the responsibility of a mentor and strictly assess you..."

Some students who had suffered so much during the assessment a few days ago could not help but howl in their hearts. Looking at the flag set by the old man, this assessment seems to be very difficult!

Moreover, Chef Miyamoto should have arrived in the middle of yesterday. There were no students who had attended his class before, so it made others even more nervous!

"...Of course, it's not just that!" Chef Miyamoto seemed to want to add something.

Everyone thought that his "not only that" was to increase the difficulty, and they sighed in their hearts that their luck was too bad to catch up with an old pervert!

Unexpectedly, what Chef Miyamoto said later caused many students to change their attitude towards him 180 degrees!

"...In addition to the assessment, the old man will be like a real mentor, try his best to pass on my experience during the four and a half hours! Of course, because the assessment is indispensable, you will take care of it while you are doing it. , while listening to it!

Whether it's the assessment or what the old man wants to teach, it's the 'soup' that the old man is best at! Students who can make soup that satisfies the old man before five o'clock, or who can understand the old man's lessons, are considered to have passed the assessment! However, Laoji's criteria for judging cooking may be different from others... Well, there is no limit to the ingredients, let's start now! "

The first half an hour is the time to select the ingredients, after half an hour Miyamoto will start "teaching", and the students can't help talking about it...

"Different criteria? What do you mean...higher or lower?"

"It doesn't have to be high or low, maybe it's the difference in other aspects?"

"However, I don't think it will be difficult. Chef Miyamoto looks very serious, but he is the first tutor I have seen in the "Residence Training" who is willing to teach!"

"That's right, I also feel that it won't be difficult. In fact, neither of us is very good at soup dishes, but there will be hints in his 'lecture'?"

"Not to mention, it's fine to be able to understand his 'teaching'! This is a privilege that is not available in other classes..."

Generally speaking, most of the students seem to think that Miyamoto's course is not too difficult.

But Liu Maoxing looked at Miyamoto and found that he was frowning at the large machinery over here!

Although Alice didn't let him intervene, Liu Maoxing felt that if he really watched the excitement, whether she could pass would be a problem...
