It was ten thirty late at night.

In the courtyard of the temple, the shadows of trees are whirling, and the lanterns are lit up, illuminating the front and back of the house brightly. No one would have thought that there was a wonderful gathering here before.

When Natsuha, Takei Shinji, and Hase Ichiro returned to Chiyo Shrine, they all received gift boxes presented by Chiyo Miko.

"You are all qualified."

Qiandai Witch said so, she glanced at Xia Yu, the youngest among them, and turned away.

"qualified!"

Xia Yu was exhausted and sat down on the stone bench, making her whole body limp.

Dojima Gin has already sent Tasuo Hui and Morita Maki back to the hotel, and they will return to the Tokyo Metropolitan campus early tomorrow morning.Today’s Chiyo Shrine’s celebration also made several young chefs with extraordinary talents realize that beyond the far moon, there is a broader world of food.

"Congratulations!"

"Tongxi!"

Shinji Takei and Ichiro Hase congratulated each other, and then they walked towards Xia Yu and reached out friendly hands.

Xia Yu was taken aback and shook hands with the two of them.

This is a kind of etiquette for treating each other, and the significance is self-explanatory.

"If Chef Xia is free, you can come to my'Hase Wine Shop' and sit down." Hase Ichiro laughed, his words and deeds are just like his temperament, like a monk, very light.

But Shinji Takei is different. This is a very courageous and successful businessman who controls a huge food conglomerate, watching Xia Yu, without concealing the appreciation and enthusiasm in his eyes, and smiles: "Chef Xia, are interested in coming to Takei. Club? I can give you the position of deputy chef, the salary will be as you say, and you will get a certain amount of shares in Takei Club..."

"Takeisha" is not a small fish or shrimp in the neon food world. Now Shinji Takei has passed the Chiyo assessment and can return to Tokyo to formally submit an application for the special assessment to the IGO agency.

When Shinji Takei becomes a super chef, Takeisha will truly have the qualifications to attack the Goshiya.

Now, under the'Four Imperial Family', the'Takeisha' is the strongest.

But Xia Yu just shook his head.

"Mr. Takei, thank you for your kindness." Xia Yu politely refused, "I am still a high school student and it is inconvenient to hold an important position in your company. Besides, I still have my own shop to take care of."

"You can feel free to contact me!"

"My IGO online ID is..."

Shinji Takei and Xia Yu exchanged friends on IGO Online.

"Add me too!"

Ichiro Hase also came over.

As a result, Xia Yu's IGO friends column has two more certified chef friends.

Under their names and heads, there are nine shining stars.

As for Xia Yu's own, there were only two stars.

"Two-star chef?" Shinji Takei was taken aback and refreshed several times with his mobile phone, but Xia Yu's profile was still the same. He could only cast a surprised look at Ryoko Rina, who was standing beside him silently.

"This this……"

He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"Two-star chef?" Hase Ichiro couldn't hide his surprise.

Xia Yu saw this and quickly slipped away, otherwise he would have to make a long explanation.Anyway, Chiyo Shrine has passed the examination, no matter what other people think, he is now a veritable'quasi' super chef!

Go back to the house on the mountain.

As soon as I opened the door and entered the house, I saw the tabby cat lying on the window, staring at him with big eyes.

This little thing came with him. For a few days, it was actually pretty well-behaved. It didn't run around and didn't cause trouble. When Xia Yu was practicing cooking, it quietly lay next to it and watched.

boom!

Putting the gift box on the table, Xia Yu supported her chin.

Ryoko Lina followed, and Xia Yu looked up at her and asked, "In the box, there should be a clue to'fantasy ingredients', right?"

"See it for yourself." Ryoko Lina said softly.

Hearing this, he did not hesitate, removed the lock, and opened the simple lid.

A hand-drawn map.

A dragon-shaped jade ruyi.

The forehead is full of question marks, what are these?

Xia Yu first unfolded a hand-drawn map, which was drawn with a brush, and the handwriting on the paper was just dry.

Islands and hills are what the map wants to depict.

"Hokkaido?"

Suspiciously, Xia Yu clicked on the map and moved to a point marked by a red pen. This location was probably in the northeastern region of Hokkaido.

"Asahikawa City, Izumo Shrine..."

Muttered the marked Chinese characters.

Vaguely, I feel a little familiar, Izumo Shrine, isn't it that shrine?

Ryoko Rina glanced over and said, "This Izumo is not the other Izumo."

"Just rely on such a simple map to find fantasy ingredients?" Xia Yu felt very unreliable.

"If you can accurately locate it, what else do you need the'Food Hunter' for?" Ryoko Lina whispered, "The map is only a guide. You regard the fantasy ingredients as a treasure. This map is the treasure map. It’s also a bounty hunter in this sense."

"Is that so..."

Xia Yu found it tricky.

Just follow the map to search in the past, even if you are lucky, it will take a month to say less.He is a student and has to take care of the small shop. It is impossible to pack a few clothes into the backpack, so he takes the backpack and goes out for a long trip.

"You can also entrust." Ryoko Rina said, "I can help you contact a reliable mercenary."

"Let's take a look first."

Xia Yu folded the map and picked up the Yu Ruyi in the box instead.

Yu Ruyi is about a foot long, and his hand is quite heavy. Xia Yu grasps it with one hand and strokes it with the other. She only feels that she is touching the silk brocade, which is delicate and smooth. Moreover, a hint of coolness runs along the fingertips, as if by the arm. Flock to the whole body.

At the top of the jade handle is a flying dragon, lifelike.

Ryoko Rina actively explained: "This is a blessing gift from the shrine to the chef..."

"Is it a prop like amulets?"

Xia Yu said strangely: "Then why is Yu Ruyi? Miss Ryoko, what does your amulet look like?"

Hearing that, Ryoko Lina hesitated for a while, unbuttoned one of the top buttons of the shirt, exposing a large piece of white skin, and slowly took out a crescent-shaped pendant tied with a thin red string.

The same is jade.

However, the weight of Yu Ruyi in Xia Yu's hands was terrifying.

"Collection!"

Ryoko Lina solemnly said: "This is also the proof of the status of the'quasi' super chef, an identity token. If you encounter a real dark world chef in the future, you will know the role of this talisman."

Xia Yu nodded.

Some things are hard to tell.

He knows that there are some things in this world. Although some chefs have a hard time encountering that kind of things throughout their lives, as the level of chefs improves, he may not be sure to deal with those things frequently in the future.

When looking at Yu Ruyi, Xia Yu didn't notice that the tabby cat had fled to the corner of the house, exploded, her small body arched high, and Amber eyes staring at Yu Ruyi vigilantly.

No words for a night.

The next day.

Xia Yu was sitting on Ryoko Rina's sports car, the shrine gift box was lying flat on her knees, and the tabby cat huddled in the car door, saying nothing to approach him.

"System, establish an analysis task for'Jade Ruyi'..." he said in his heart.

"The task was created successfully, and the estimated analysis time is 365 days at 22:00..."

The system responds mechanically.(To be continued.)
