Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"What a mess of seeing the parents, I just... forget it, I can't explain it for a while!" Liu Subaru said helplessly.Novel

In particular, Mito's gloomy eyes, and Tian Suohui's loss, but strong smile, all made him a headache...

At this moment, behind Liu Subaru Xing, there was a strange sound of footsteps.

Liu Subaru looked back, but found a "familiar" guy standing behind him...

"Excuse me, is this the'Jixing Liao'? Senior Liu Subaru."

Looking at the squinted boy in front of him, Liu Subaru suddenly remembered something, and immediately asked: "You are... a pheasant? Why are you here?"

The squinted young man couldn't help grinning, and at the same time corrected: "It's not a pheasant, it's Sugiyama, Sugiyama, and Ji!"

That's right, at the Hokkaido Seafood Pastry Contest, the one from the Sugiyama family who had a relationship.

"What are you doing here?" Liu Subaru wondered.

"Huh? Don't you know? Yesterday, after passing the foreign recruitment assessment, I told me that I was assigned to the "Apocalypse Liao"? Unexpectedly, Liu Maoxing, a senior, is actually in the Pole Xing Liao. Please take care of me in the future."

Sugiyama Yoshihide always squinted his eyes and smiled from the beginning, and what he said was obviously just "scene words", which made people unable to hear the slightest sincerity.

"Oh, yes, I did say that three new students have been assigned this year, two are recruited from outside and one is transferred to the class..." Wen Xu said.

"The one who transfers to the class has gone to go through the formalities, and he should report later." Liu Subaru said.

"Interim student" naturally refers to Liu Maoyuan.

Hearing what Liu Subaru said, everyone's eyes sparkled with gossip...

At this moment, another voice came from behind Liu Subaru: "Get out of the way, get in the way!"

Hearing this arrogant tone, Liu Subaru and Sui Shan behind Liu Subaru both turned their heads and looked over... After that, Sui Shan, who had always looked above the top, decided to step aside!

I saw that the person here was a girl with a half-new gray head, only the middle one was pure black and was waist-length, about 1.78 meters tall, and looked about the same height as Liu Subaru, but with delicate features.

But now the girl's face carries an expression of "Lao Tzu Long Aotian is here"...

Of course, what really made Sugiyama immediately decide "Ladies First" was that this long silver-gray girl carried a long knife on her shoulder and the scabbard with one hand.

Sugiyama Yoshi decided to push aside the moment he saw the sword, only Liu Subaru was left in front of her...

"Boy, this is Jixingliao, right?" the girl asked.

"Little boy?" Liu Subaru couldn't help but shake the corner of his mouth.

"Yes, this is Ji Xingliao, but who are you?" Liu Subaru suspected that she was here to make trouble!

"That's good, it seems that I did not find the wrong thing, step aside, you are in the way!" The girl said straightforwardly.

Liu Subaru did not want to give way, but the other party directly used the "proud place" to make a dash. Facing this kind of brutal double meat bomb chariot, Liu Subaru chose to evade...

When she passed in front of her, Liu Subaru only realized that there was a "baggage" on the handle of the knife?Some people still use "baggage"?

"This looks very old mother-in-law is the auntie, right? I'm Saito Sakura, and I'm going to live here this year for foreign students." The girl said and handed out the check-in certificate to Wenxu.

"It's really rude! Everyone called me'Maria of Pole Star Lao'!" Wen Xu said dissatisfied.

In fact, only Liu Subaru called you Wenxu Maria!Everyone complained in their hearts.

"Wait, Saito... so to speak..."

Liu Subaru took a closer look at the girl with the silver and black head. He had felt that the first time he saw this girl, he felt familiar.

Now that she heard her report about her family, Liu Subaru suddenly remembered that this model from color to knife resistance is very similar to the predecessor's fifth seat Saito Sooaki!

It's just that Sotoaki Saito is a moxi-dried cockscomb-shaped head, a bunch of erected in the middle is black, and the sides are silver gray...

Pleiades Liu had always thought that this man should be partly dyed, but seeing the length of Saito Sakura, the middle one is pure black and the other is silver gray, Liu Subaru has new ideas.

Sugiyama Yoshiki also handed in the check-in certificate, and Wen Xu said, “Well, don’t rush to put your luggage. You should have seen the rules of Pole Star Liao on the check-in notice, right? This check-in certificate is a constraint. No way for me, if you can’t cook the food that satisfies me, just find a place to camp outside!"

"Don't worry, I have to bring some ingredients..." Sugiyama said.

"Well, I also brought it."

Sugiyama Yoshihide just wanted to ask her, where is such a small baggage as if it had ingredients?But turning his head to see the knife on Saito Sakura's shoulder, he gave up the idea of ​​contacting her more.

"Wait a little longer, one more person will arrive at the end, let's start together." Wen Xu said.

"By the way, I heard that the better the occupancy assessment is completed, the better room you can choose, right?" Saito Sakura asked.

"Yes."

After Saito Sakura nodded, she walked straight to the side without saying hello to other people, just sat down on the spot, drew the long knife, put it on her knees, and closed her eyes...

It made Liu Subaru wonder if she was talking to the strange uncle who lived in the knife!

Of course, I was complaining about it in my heart. After Sakura Saito entered the state of "sword meditation into concentration", Liu Subaru saw that this sword skill must not be simple!

This is what Liu Subaru, who already possesses "the essence of sword skills", can feel.

However, in the eyes of others, it was a certain star who was frantic and immediately focused on the new school girl...

"Huh, someone really has a wide range of hobbies!" Mito Yumei said with dissatisfaction.

At this time, Liu Subaru noticed that something was wrong, and asked Sakura Saito slyly: "Who is Soomi Saito?"

Saito Sakura opened her eyes dissatisfied, and said annoyedly: "Brother Trash."

"Sao Akira Saito? Ah! It's the fifth seat..."

"No wonder! Just now I thought she was a little familiar with her look... The last name is also very familiar..."

"Saito Senpai's younger sister?"

"But it's really self-willed to say "Brother Trash"! Saito-senpai is a top ten..."

Everyone knew what Liu Subaru was watching before, and Mito Yumei turned his head a little embarrassed.

"Then what are you doing in'Jixingliao'? Doesn't the Central Food Authority have its own dormitory?" Liu Maoxing frowned.

Others also reacted at this time. Saito Sooaki was a staunch supporter of Naginari thistle at the time!

"Huh? What does it matter to me that he supports the Central Food Authority? Don't compare me with that waste. He joined the Central Food Authority after graduating...Should I want to prove that he is not a waste, or even be comparable to me? Hehe, the purpose of my coming here is to tell him'stop dreaming', waste is waste!"

Saito Sakuralong declared proudly.

Obviously, her previous "brother trash" was not a performance like arrogant, but naked discrimination!

Among the original supporters of Nagachi thistle, Kobayashi Gentiana and Akakubo Peach belong to the watering nature, while Shieishi, Saito Soaki, and Kizhikuni Ningning are firm supporters.

The reason why Si Yingshi turned to Naginata thistle was probably presumed by Liu Subaru before, while Ji Zhiguo Ningning was working hard in the direction of "tools" for unknown reasons. As for what Soomi Saito thought, then There has been no eyebrows.

Now seeing his arrogant Saito sister, Liu Subaru has automatically made up a plot of hundreds of thousands of words...

Probably Saito Somaki, who came from the same big family, has been suppressed, despised, discriminated against by his younger sister, and may even be involved in other things. After that, "Don't bully the young and poor" leave the family and come to Tomotsu Academy to "self-reliance" Up.

During this period, he won the honor of "Ten Yuet Outstanding Persons", and also took refuge in Naginaki thistle, preparing to "reform" the situation in the culinary industry with him, but at the graduation ceremony, just after a wave of "beep", immediately His sister has passed the foreign recruitment exam and entered Yuanyue, looking like she is about to crush his pride...

As for how Liu Subaru thinks of "family grievances"?

Originally, he remembered that there was a "five petal flower" pattern at the mouth of the scabbard of Soto Akira Saito, next to the knife grid. Liu Subaru thought it was a decoration before, but at this time it was in the scabbard of Sakura Saito. Above, I also saw the same pattern. It seems that it will not be as simple as "decoration", but should be "family crest"!

Excluding the factors of the central food organization, no matter how you look at it, it seems that the "Sakura Saito" in front of you belongs to the evil forces?

However, no matter how you say it, Saito Sakura's appearance does not show that she is lying, at least she is not a member of the "central food organization".

"Have you been practicing cooking at home before?" Liu Subaru asked curiously.

If this is the case, then Saito Sakura...maybe not as good as Liu Zhuyuan!

Although the Liu family, with a history of more than 100 years, is not at the forefront of the history of the world's culinary families, there was once a dragon-class chef "Liu Subaru Star", and the Liu family's family heritage is definitely one of the best.

In addition, Liu Subaru is still the "genius" of the Liu family once in ten years. If Saito Sakura is also this kind of education mode, I am afraid... it is much worse than Saito Soumaki!

Saito Sakura seemed a little unhappy. This person always asked himself questions, but still replied: "Of course not! I have been traveling around the world's famous stores and schools since I was ten!"

"Ten years old?" Liu Subaru gave her a surprised look.

Well, Xiaozhi took Pikachu on the road when he was ten years old, it's not impossible...

At this moment, Liu Maoyuan, who had gone to complete the procedures, also returned.

"Here is the'Jixing Liao', right? Hello, everyone, my name is Liu Maoyuan, and I am a transfer student who went directly to the third grade. I hope everyone will get along well for the next year!" Liu Maoyuan said.

While talking with a mini headset, from the arms of the jacket, the effect of the translation into the island Mandarin came out.

Liu Maoyuan is able to communicate freely without the help of props. It is estimated that it will take a long time to learn to adapt...

"Liu Subaru Garden?" Everyone couldn't help repeating the name, and then looked at Liu Subaru who had just denied certain things.

"Ah! Everyone, don't know how, I and A Xing's names just happen to be more similar!" Liu Maoyuan explained.

But obviously only had the opposite effect...

"A Xing?"

It's not like calling someone who "just" has a name that happens to resemble himself!

"Ahem, okay, now that the three of you are all here, let's prepare for the check-in assessment." Wen Xu interrupted Liu Maoyuan's desire to explain.

Liu Subaru Garden had also been reminded by Liu Subaru a long time ago, and the ingredients were also prepared.

As for the other people in Ji Xing Liao, although they are preparing for the "Ten Master Seat Competition" at this time, they are not very nervous because the topic has not been announced yet. They are all coming to watch the excitement...

Mito Yumei also pretended not to care and walked to Liu Subaru's side, pretending to be natural, and asked, "Have you had a good winter vacation?"

"Hey, it's hard to say in one word!" Liu Subaru sighed.

"Isn't it a happy trouble?"

"There are happiness and troubles..."

While the two people were talking, Liu Zhuyuan, Sugiyama Yoshi, and Saito Sakura, at this time, they had also taken out their own prepared ingredients.

At this time, the three of them saw each other's ingredients, and they couldn't help being stunned...

All three of them took out the fresh-keeping container from their luggage (baggage). Then Liu Subaruwon took out a piece of frozen sea bream meat, while Sugiyama Yoshitaka took out a sockeye salmon of 30 to 40 cm. As for Saito Sakura’s safe , It is a slender sweetfish about 20 centimeters!

The ingredients of the three people are actually fish?

Needless to say, the sea bream prepared by Liu Maoyuan is known as the "king of fish", while Sugiyama Yoshi’s sockeye salmon is a sockeye salmon originally from Alaska. It is famous for its deep red meat and high oil content, even if it has not been peeled yet. , You can also see the whole body is showing red.

As for sweetfish, it is a freshwater fish. It is known as the "freshwater fish" in island countries. Freshwater fish is usually considered to have a strong smell, but sweetfish is different. Wild sweetfish has a fragrance similar to cucumber, so it is also It is called "cucumber fish".

It is also called "catfish", but it has nothing to do with "catfish" in terms of body or blood relationship. It just means that both have a strong habit of occupying territory...

Usually wild ayu is slender and farmed ayu is short and thick, but this one from Saito Sakura should be wild.

"Ayu? I once ate grilled sweetfish in Hozugawa, Kyoto... Ah, that crispy texture, and the special preserved fish sausage after it is cooked... Tsk tsk." Wen Xu said. .

"Oh? Mother-in-law, do you like to eat grilled sweetfish with octopus intestines? Really know the goods! Then I will make a grilled sweetfish and let mother-in-law relive it... No, it's better than the one you've tasted before It's delicious!" Saito Sakura said.

At the same time, I really gave up the various spices I had originally prepared, but only took some coarse-grained salt from the kitchen cabinet, and turned out the small carbon stove under the cooking table...

With Wen Xu's words, his original preparations were changed, which undoubtedly showed Saito Sakura's confidence!

"That's right, but this is not sweetfish from Hozu River in Kyoto, but sweetfish from Nagara River in Gifu." Saito Sakura explained.

What Saito Sakura is going to do is obviously the simplest and most authentic salt-grilled sweetfish. Except salt, no other spices are going to be used!

"Oh? Then I'm looking forward to it." Wen Xu said.

And Liu Subaruwon and Sugiyama Yoshi respectively chose "Sea Bream Spring Roll" and "Fried Red Salmon"...

At this time, Liu Maoyuan’s "sea bream spring rolls" did not copy the "reincarnated spring rolls". First, it was because they did not want to continue to "gnaw the old man", and second, because the sea bream was originally frozen. Fa reincarnated.

Pleiades Liu noticed that she also added mint leaves and lemon juice to the sea bream fillings, and used the sourness of the lemon juice to further enhance the fragrance of the sea bream fillings, which was quite like a Thai spring roll.

And Sugiyama Yoshitaka's sockeye salmon, after taking it out, did not move the knife, but moved the "needle" first!

I saw Yoshi Sugiyama flying his hands first, and after inserting more than ten acupuncture needles of three types into the sockeye salmon, he mixed spices on the side.

After the spices were prepared, Yoshi Sugiyama came back and pulled out all the needles, and everyone saw the red salmon beating a few times!

It actually evoked some of the only neural reactions of the sockeye salmon!

After that, I started to slice two whole pieces of meat, marinated, spiced... and started to inject spices?

That's right, I was using a syringe, injecting some kind of sauce, pushing carefully, and slowly pulling out the needle...

Liu Subaru once used a similar method in the "Autumn Trials" when cooking "Flame Roasted Suckling Pig".

This is not the original creation of Pleiades Liu... the roast turkey usually eaten at Christmas is a typical roasted product that requires spice injection!

But normally speaking, the salmon meat is not big, and there is no need to inject the sauce. Although Sugiyama Yoshi has sliced ​​the whole salmon meat, it is not to the extent that it needs to be injected...

And it's not a turkey needle for injecting sauce, but a medical syringe in every way!

On the other side, Saito Sakura’s movements are the most unremarkable, using the charcoal, charcoal stove, and coarse-grained salt in the kitchen to slowly grill sweetfish...

After about an hour, the "sea bream spring rolls" and "salmon pan-fried red salmon" were already prepared. Obviously, no matter if it was Liu Zhuyuan or Sugiyama Yoshi, they prepared more than one.

Sugiyama Yoshi’s "Fried Red Salmon" is fried in a whole piece, but before serving, it is cut into pieces, and some grilled fungi prepared before and blanched vegetables are used as a side dish. .

In addition to Wenxu, everyone else also got some spring rolls and small pieces of fried fish...

"Huhu, while the savory flavor of sea bream is sealed in this spring roll, there is also a hint of coolness!"

"That's right, the crispy dough, the double spring roll skin of fish skin, and the sea bream fillings are different from Ah Xing's'Reincarnation Spring Rolls', but they are also very refreshing."

"The taste of this pan-fried fish...why is it so "flapping"? It's like a live salmon just slaughtered!"

"There is also the feeling that the sauce and fish are completely blended, which is also particularly lingering..."

"Very good! Pass all levels... Welcome to Jixingliao!"

Wen Xu was obviously also very satisfied and announced that the two had passed the check-in assessment.

But at this moment, suddenly a scent came...

"That's it!"

Saito Sakura said, she tore off a piece of kitchen paper, wrapped the baked sweetfish into a place to hold it, and handed it to Wen Xu... Obviously this is no one else's share!

But for some reason, everyone felt it in a daze. This simple "salt-grilled sweetfish" seemed to have the momentum to swallow all the previous "sea bream spring rolls" and "spicy red salmon".

Wen Xu is also a person who can eat. He looked at the salt-grilled sweetfish that was grilled into a yellowish brown, the belly of the fish was slightly charred, but the tail was still intact. Bit down...

Start with the crispy and delicious brain that has been roasted, and then shave the fish bones while eating the fish...

"Sure enough, it is a pure wild Nagara River sweetfish, with a faint cucumber-like fragrance in the flesh, which is perfectly preserved during roasting..."

"Hmm! The crispy fish head, the tender brain, the slightly burnt fish, the delicious fish intestines...it is indeed the same as before!"

"No, although only coarse-grained salt is used, compared to the ones I have tasted back then, and the grilled sweetfish with special sauces, it has a fuller and original taste!"

After a short time, with a happy expression on his face, he has eaten the whole roasted sweetfish!

In the end, although the three of them were all qualified, no matter who it was, they could see the difference...

The faces of everyone present were different, but Liu Subaru was full of interest, and secretly said: It looks like this "Ten Master Seats Competition" will not be too boring... I don't know how many other than Erina. Can you be my opponent?(To be continued.)
