From the Athletics Arena, take a taxi back to Okura Mountain Villa.

As soon as he walked in, Xia Yu saw the hallway with large and small courier boxes stacked. A maid leaned forward and said, "Chef Xia, these packages were delivered by Black Cat Express not long ago."

"Well, help!"

Xia Yu greeted the maid, and Erina who came back with him also stepped forward. Everyone moved the packages to Xia Yu's bedroom and piled them on the corridor.

"You bought so many things online?"

Nakiri Erina was surprised, but Xia Yu didn't have time to take care of her. He took the opening knife and opened the package. After a while, the floor was covered with various hiking and climbing equipment.

There are brand new jackets, one set of yellow and one set of green.This is the necessary equipment for activities under harsh outdoor conditions. It is windproof, waterproof and warm. Even if it is severe winter, Xia Yu can wear a jacket on the snow river in Hokkaido.

Of course, in addition to clothes, there are canvas hiking pants, which are said to never wear out. Xia Yu has done enough homework when buying these outdoor equipment.

Next is the small pieces of equipment that can't be ignored, such as a sharp outdoor knife. There are too many places to use, such as lighters, LED flashlights, military kettles and waterproof backpacks.

Seeing Xia Yu busy organizing outdoor gear, Erina looked confused.

"You buy so many outdoor equipment, do you want to..."

"Yes!"

Xia Yu gave the sorted clothes and pants to the maid of the villa to wash and dry, while other small objects were put into the backpack.

Bang, opened the bedroom door, and Erina went into the room with him, and found that on the table in front of him, there was a regional map spread there, and Xia Yu took out another tournament schedule.

October 1st: Yuanyue team VS French Academy team.

...

October 8th: Yangquan Restaurant Team VS Orlando Academy Team.

...

Starting on the 8th, the 16-in and eight-elimination rounds are over, and the offseason is seven days off. On October 16, the half-zone eight-in and four-elimination rounds begin.

and.

The promotion route on the schedule is clearly marked. The winner of the first matchup on the 1st, the eight-to-four knockout, is scheduled for October 20, which is the last match of this stage.

So, from today on the 1st to the 20th, the Yuanyue team won’t have to play.

This period of time is too long, Xia Yu doesn't want to be idle in the villa all the time, studying cooking all day will be crazy.

"It should be in this area..."

Erina listened to Xia Yu's self-talk, and his eyes moved with him. Xia Yu finished reading the schedule of events, and then buried his head on the mountain map of Hokkaido on the desktop, biting the pen of a pencil, and pointing his finger at the cities in northeastern Hokkaido. In the circle, "Go to Asahikawa first, and then look for the specific location of this Izumo Shrine. If you find the shrine, you can roughly delineate the area."

With a pencil, I drew a big circle on the second largest city in Hokkaido.

Xia Yu dragged the suitcase that Tokyo had brought out from behind the door.

Click!

Opening the clothes, a simple wooden box was at the bottom of the box. Xia Yu picked up the box and placed it on the tabletop. After the box was opened, there was only one well-preserved Yu Ruyi and a rough hand-drawn map.

Almost half a year has passed, and the ink on the paper has already dried up.

The islands and hills are very abstract because of the brush hand-painting. Xia Yu took the map and compared it with the detailed map of Hokkaido on the desktop. For a long time, he shook his head and said, "Sure enough, I still have to go to the field!"

As he said, putting away the map and stuffing it into the mountaineering backpack with the wooden box, Xia Yu continued to concentrate.

"Clarify for me!"

After watching for a long while, Erina Nagiri finally lost the last bit of patience and stepped forward angrily, snatching the clothes that Xia Yu had put in his hands, "Are you planning to travel far, climbing?"

"Do you know a food hunter?"

Xia Yu turned her head and grinned, "I just plan to be a real food hunter!"

"Oh--"

After dragging a long syllable, Erina looked at him suspiciously, "Are you alone? Do you have the skills to survive in the wild? The wild is very dangerous, so just don't go. I heard that fantasy species have invaded badly in recent years. The primeval forest of Hokkaido is the hardest hit area. The news said more than once that a mountaineering team had mysteriously disappeared in the mountain area, and there were no bones...

Still the strong words of the past, although they didn't directly ridicule, they were full of doubts.

Hearing Erina's news and scared him, Xia Yu couldn't help but laughed, "Erina, ordinary people can't bear your unique concern."

"Close, care?"

His cheeks flushed.

"Well, can you give me back what you have?"

Xia Yu pointed.

Erina snorted and looked intently, and found that after she had seized a pair of underwear from Xia Yu, her cheeks were even hotter, her body shook slightly, and she seemed to faint with shame.

...

Ten o'clock at night.

Yuanyue's team returned with a big victory, and the score was just as Xia Yu expected, three to zero, crushing to win!

A group of people in the villa lobby, enjoying a leisurely supper after the game.

When the TV is on, no matter how many channels or channels are changed, there will be real-time news that the Yuanyue team defeated the French team and won the first victory. Among them, the first opening show was talked about and commented on by famous people.

"That's it."

Zhu Qing put down the remote control, and in the picture, there are close-ups of the dishes that go back and forth.

Xia Yu coughed, put down his dessert fork, and a plate of dessert in front of him had been wiped out. When everyone's eyes gathered, he took a sip of tea and slowly said: "I'm going to leave for a while and come back on the 19th."

"Back to Tokyo?"

Dojima Gin glanced at Erina who was unusually silent.

"No." Xia Yu chuckled lightly, "I, I'm probably going to be a real food hunter."

"Ok?!"

All of a sudden, Zhu Qing, Dojima Gin, Nagiri Soe and his wife, and Roland Chapel all looked all wrong.

"Chairman, remember the Chiyo Shrine assessment? The Chiyo Goddess gave me a map. After half a year, it is time for me to hunt for the first fantasy food in my life." Xia Yu said.

"You can't go without combat training or gun training."

Dojima Gin shook his head and said solemnly: "In the past two years, the situation is not right. The gourmet mercenaries have died batch after batch, and the IGO organization has also suspended the collective training of chefs. Otherwise, when you pass the examination of Chiyo Shrine, you should accept it. I went to the barracks to report on the IGO notice."

"I can fight, firearms, you can learn now!"

Xia Yu had made up his mind and said nothing would change his plan.

"fighting?"

Dojima Gin stood up, "Well, you come with me, I will try your level!"

So Xia Yu went to the indoor gymnasium of the villa with Dojima.

This gym is closed on all sides, except that there are no windows at the door. When the lights are turned on, the wooden floor slightly reflects the light.

The two took off their shoes and only wore socks.

Dojima Gin untied his suit jacket and threw it away. He also unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt, while Xia Yu was dressed in everyday casual clothes during the day.

Others are surrounded by the sidelines.

"He really knows how to fight?" Erina said in surprise when he saw the young man confronting Dojima Gin with calmly.

"Their level should be at the same level."

Zhu Qing said softly: "The difference is that after actual combat and without actual combat..."
