Reincarnating to Become a Japanese Chef God

Chapter 484: News from Tokyo

It was still early. I took the JR train to Asahikawa and drove a jeep across the city. Xia Yu looked at the watch on his left wrist. It was just after ten o'clock in the morning.

Compare hand-drawn maps and mobile navigation maps.

The map of the Chiyo Goddess has abstract terrain, but Asahikawa City and Izumo Shrine are marked on the map with two points.

What Xia Yu has to do is to find another point from one point.

According to the terrain, he probably locked three areas.

The first one: Tokachidake.

This high mountain area is close to Furano City. Now Xia Yu is driving along the railway line from Asahikawa to Furano. On the navigation map, he is heading southeast and gradually away from downtown Asahikawa. The next destination is Biei Town in Asahikawa.

At about noon, Xia Yu was in the downtown area of ​​Biei. Although this satellite town was small, it had all the internal organs. According to the navigation map, he parked the car in front of a building called'Biei Shrine' and could enter. As soon as he walked inside, Xia Yu couldn't help being disappointed. The shrine was full of tourists and even a TV drama crew was busy.

However, Xia Yu still found the owner of the shrine and asked seriously about the location of Izumo Shrine. Who knew that the other party was confused when he heard this, saying that it was the first time he had heard the name of this shrine.

Departed disappointedly, had lunch in downtown Biei, passed the gas station, filled up the jeep's fuel, and Xia Yu drove along the straight national road in Biei, and went straight to Tokachidake without stopping.

The car was walking quietly on the national road surrounded by forests. Sometimes it didn’t hit another car for half an hour. The autumn wind blew through the forest and brought withered yellow leaves. Finally, approaching the evening, Xia Yu walked there. At the end of this national highway, there is no longer a vast wilderness in front of them, but there are sparse buildings.

I will stay at a hot spring hotel tonight.

Xia Yu asked the owner of the homestay, and she knew it was an unmarked town on the map. It was called Baijin. There was a three-story platinum hot spring hotel not far from the homestay. There were many cars parked at the door. Camping tourists.

Sitting cross-legged in the room, opening the window, looking to the southeast, the far end of the Daxue Mountain that plunges into the sky is'Mount Tokachi.Xia Yu secretly said: "Inquire first, don't rush into the mountain."

At this moment, there was a loud noise outside the courtyard.

When Xia Yu heard the sound and went out, she saw a few strong men in camouflage uniforms around his jeep, pointing.

"What are you doing?!" He sullen his face, touching his bulging waist with one hand.

"This is your car?"

The mercenaries were stunned.

"nonsense!"

"Are you from the Lily of the Valley?" The mercenaries looked cautious.

Xia Yu didn’t answer. The mercenaries dispersed sensibly, and the owner of the hotel was also quarreled. This is a middle-aged uncle in a kimono. He smiled and said, "Xia Yu, don’t be nervous, they have permission. The official mercenaries of the certificates, who have lived with me for half a month, came to investigate the monsters in the snowy mountains under the entrustment of the Furano City Government."

"Snow Mountain Monster?"

"Yes."

When it came to this, the middle-aged uncle seemed worried and said: "Tokachi Dake is originally a volcano. There were several eruptions in the Edo period, which caused many disasters. About a month ago, Asahikawa City and Furano City. Organized an observation team into the mountain, and then disappeared!"

"Missing?"

"In fact, it was probably killed." The middle-aged uncle sighed. "There is a 10-member gourmet mercenary group accompanying it. It has been a month, but there is no news. Who can believe that they are still alive?"

Xia Yu heard it silently.

"Is the situation terrible on the Tokachi Mountain Snow Mountain?" he asked.

"If it was too bad, we would have moved back to the city long ago, didn't we?"

The middle-aged uncle smiled and walked away.

"By the way, uncle, is there a professional kitchen in your town that can be rented?" Xia Yu shouted from behind him.

"Then go to the hot spring hotel opposite!"

Xia Yu felt that he was going to stay in this town for two days.

In the past two days, he communicated with the God of Cooking Space at night to practice, and during the day he used the Internet or on the spot to search for all clues about Izumo Shrine.

...

Two days later.

The perspective turns back to Tokyo.

On October 3, two weeks later, the semi-finals of Yuanyue "Autumn Selection" officially kicked off at 10 o'clock this morning!

The first match was Hayama Ryo VS Morita Maki!

This duel was a blast. It not only ignited Yuanyue’s enthusiasm. Through the live broadcast of TV, you can see the familiar faces of the guest seats in'between the moon and the sky', and you can know that this autumn election has triggered. How much attention.

Backstage.

Morita Maki lay on the table, her mellow and exquisite face leaned in front of the screen, not seeing the nervousness of the upcoming appearance.

"Ah, so beautiful, Daxueshan!"

She exclaimed, and the other end of the video communication was the snow-capped mountain outside the window of the hot spring hotel.

"Maki, I personally decided on the topic of the semifinals. Two weeks have passed, can you control them..." Xia Yu's voice came from the mobile phone. He lay on the window sill and asked with a smile at his childhood sweetheart in Tokyo.

"No problem—"

"Our group got the topic of'drinks', and the group of Xiaohui and Xinghei got the topic of'staple food'..." Maki Morita smiled like clear crescent moons. "The topic of'drinks' is very suitable for me. If it's the subject of the'main course', it will be tricky. I will probably lose to Ye Shanliang."

!

A staff member outside said: "Morita player, it's time to play!"

"Ok."

Morita Maki responded. She had changed into a white chef's uniform and took her mobile phone.

The two maintained a video connection. Soon, the thunderous cries of "between the moon and the sky" spread to the hot spring hotel in the small town of Baijin. Xia Yu smiled and listened, looking at the vast wilderness outside the window. .

It was only three days away from the city, and the cheers of the stadium made him feel strange.

"Morita! Morita! Morita!"

"Come on!"

"Morita-senpai, I am your fan!"

Morita Maki stepped out of the passageway, and the fans of the support team immediately rushed. Her mobile phone camera focused, and Xia Yu was staring at the hot spring hotel.

In the entire area, everyone wore black robes, black pointed hats, and a prominent "F" letter printed on the front.

Seeing Morita look over, the leader of the fan group held up the wooden cross dyed orange-red, shouting slogans:

"burn!"

"Burn burn!"

"I wish there are lovers in the world...you will eventually become brothers and sisters!"

Fans shouted burning slogans in unison, "Between Moon and Sky" was shocked by the aura of this support group.

Maki Morita was so embarrassed that she hid in her kitchen counter.

Ye Shanliang took a step ahead of her, standing coldly on the opposite kitchen counter.

"Ah, the players are already in place!"

The hostess Rei Kawashima coughed, "Yuanyue Academy, the 43rd "Autumn Selection" semi-finals, the first round, now begins!"

clang!

The sound of the golden gong spread.

"Ayu, I'm about to start!"

Morita Maki put the phone in a convenient position and focused on herself. Then, she put the prepared ingredients on the kitchen counter, and Kawashima Rei yelled, "It seems that contestants Hayama and contestants Morita have won. Lecturer Xia’s food support!"

On the kitchen counter are fresh fruits that were just picked not long ago. "Lemon Peach" is just one of them.

Wash the fruit first, use a sharp fruit knife to cut the fruit into pieces.

Pay attention to observation. It is not difficult to find that Morita uses seven different juicers to classify the fruits.

Then, in five different transparent glass drink cups, she first poured a dark brown juice, which is grape juice... Then, Maki held a jar full of homemade yogurt and poured it carefully with a spoon. Layer yogurt, a thin layer, about 2, 3 mm thick.

Then pour in orange juice with small particles of orange, and then spread a layer of yogurt.

So cycle.

Just half an hour after the cooking session, Maki Morita rang the passing bell and brought five cups of juice to the judging table.

"Density control?"

Maki did not forget to bring his mobile phone when serving the food, so Xia Yu was able to observe the whole process. He was secretly surprised at the hot spring hotel, "To turn seven kinds of juice with different densities into a glass of colorful juice in the compartment, this is necessary How many times do you practice?"

"And... why is the yogurt compartment so distinct?"

Xia Yu thought.
