The strongest gourmet food system

Chapter 632 Chapter 164 The Uninvited Guest

"What am I supposed to do? Isn't this normal? It's me, and I will do the same." Absolen looked at Zheng Ke angrily.

"Brother, you are so stupid, haven't you understood what Zheng Ke said? If Yang Katagiri lost today's game on purpose, then there is no need for him to spend energy on this dish. If he guesses The topic of the final round is Western desserts, do you know what that means?" Catherine said impatiently.

Absolun slapped his forehead fiercely, "I understand, I understand - counting last week, he will have two weeks to prepare a dessert."

This is the advantage of group No.1.

Because Zheng Ke is playing consecutively, all his energy must be put on the next opponent. Therefore, he can do nothing if he knows the questions of the last round in advance.But Katagiri Yang was not the case. Before this game, he had already rested for two weeks. In terms of time, he had more time than Zheng Ke.

Zheng Ke nodded, "That's what it means. Moreover, he said in an interview that luck is also a part of the game. In other words, he decided to bet on this one. From the current point of view, it should be his bet correct."

"Not necessarily? After all, he might be preparing a salad." Absolun retorted.

"Impossible, just now Katagiri was wearing a kimono and walked over leisurely. If he had prepared a salad, he would have burnt his ass a long time ago. How could it be so easy?" Zheng Ke shrugged his shoulders.

"That said, Katagiri himself is not very good at Western food. Even if he is given two weeks, he may not be able to make particularly good desserts." Absolen said.

"It's fine if it's him. Don't forget, since you can help me, someone else will be able to help him. As long as you have a good enough recipe, based on his foundation, it's not all about making a palace-level dessert. A very difficult thing."

Absolen thought for a while, and it really made sense, "Then what are you going to do?"

Zheng Ke looked helpless, "I can only take one step at a time. Katagiri's preparation time is longer than mine, but my foundation of Western-style desserts should be better than his. So, it's not that I have no chance at all. It's just that I was overshadowed." , a little upset."

Thinking about it carefully, if he was in Katagiri's position, he would do the same.After all, this is related to the last qualifying spot.

"Okay, let's go out too, Senior Takasugi and the others should have been waiting for a long time."

Catherine, who was bowing her head in thought, was slightly taken aback when she heard Zheng Ke's words, "Hey, why don't you think about how to deal with it?"

"Even if you have to think about it, it's tomorrow. Let's take a rest today?" Zheng Ke forced a smile.

"Hmm!" Catherine immediately beamed with joy.

……

As night fell, the Junke Pavilion in the busy city was brightly lit.

"Chef Anzai, here are the dishes the guests want to order." A waiter handed five or six menus to the busy Anzai Kota.

"Understood." Mrs. Anxi took the menu, glanced at it, and placed it on the operating table, stretching herself, "Oh, Master Zheng keeps saying that he wants to find us a Chinese chef. I don't know when it will come."

"Didn't Teacher Zheng say that? If it goes well, it should be in early September, right?" Kuriyama Jin, who was cooking, said casually.

"September? Isn't that still early? I really can't figure it out, my strength is not bad, why don't you let me learn Chinese cuisine?" Anxi Akira raised his head and looked depressed.

"Chef Anxi, don't be joking, okay? If you're not here, what will happen to Junketing?" Kuriyama Jin asked back.

"Isn't there still you?"

"Don't...my current cooking skills can't afford the entire Junke Pavilion." Li Shanren quickly refused, but kept stirring the spatula in his hand, "I heard that this chef who is undergoing training, I am very optimistic about Master Zheng, I hope he can come here sooner."

"Yeah, after he comes, I will teach him some other cooking, so that I can ask for leave to rest." An Xihuang sighed too much. Recently, he has been really busy. He wants to rest but has never had a chance .

Kuriyama Jin brought the ingredients to the window, tapped on the window, and the waiter came over immediately.

"Guests at table 18." Kuriyama Jin glanced at the door of the restaurant, and two guests came in through the door.

Kuriyama Jin frowned slightly when he saw these two people.One of them, who impressed him deeply, was Kawaguchi, a gourmet who lived in the Garden of Colorful Leaves when Ueda Takeshi seized power a few months ago.At that time, he and Takahashi were very close. Although it turned out that he was not involved in the Takahashi case, he still left a bad impression on Kuriyama Jin.

I thought that after that time, he would not have much contact with Kawaguchi, but he didn't expect to see Kawaguchi again at this time.

The other man was wearing a white shirt and black trousers. He looked pretty good, but there was an inexplicable indifference between his brows, like an invisible hand tightly choking Kuriyama Jin's throat.This feeling of indifference is very similar to the strand of white hair on his forehead.

After seeing Kuriyama Jin, Kawaguchi Kyotake smiled and nodded. After whispering a few words with the person who came with him, the man found an empty seat alone, while Kawaguchi Kyotake quickly walked to the window. , and said hello to Kuriyama Jin: "Master Kuriyama, long time no see."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Although he was very disgusted with him in his heart, Kuriyama Jin still smiled, but Kuriyama's smile gave a stiff feeling.

"By the way, isn't Master Zheng here?" Kawaguchi asked.

"Teacher Zheng is currently participating in the-blue competition."

"The-blue? It should be the national competition now, right?" Kawaguchi Kyotake touched his chin and recalled.

"Yeah, Mr. Zheng has entered the final round of the competition. Do you have something to do with him?" Ren Kuriyama looked at Kyotake Kawaguchi suspiciously, feeling alert in his heart.

"There are some...but it's not a big deal, thank you." Kawaguchi Keitake bowed to Kuriyama Jin, then turned and left.

When Kuriyama Jin returned to the console, Anzai Kota asked Kuriyama Jin in a low voice, "Who is that person?"

"A gourmet, but I always feel that he doesn't look like a good person—uncle, is this my illusion?" Jin Kuriyama turned his head and looked at Kota Anzai.

"Why? I don't think he's feeling well either. By the way, don't call me uncle, call me the chef. Only in this way will it appear that I'm different." Anxi Akira stroked his chin with a smug smile on his face .

giggle.

Kuriyama Jin rolled his eyes and thought to himself.

Kawaguchi Keitake sat across from the man, lowered his head, his face slightly reserved.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Nakamura, Zheng Ke is not here." Kawaguchi Keitake said in a low voice.

"Well, there's no need to apologize. We didn't notify him in advance, and he should be absent." The person called 'Nakamura' looked indifferent, and his tone was not as cold as it seemed.

"No, in fact, he is currently participating in the-blue competition, and it seems that he has entered the final round." Keitake Kawaguchi quickly explained.

"the-blue?" Nakamura's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the air between the two froze instantly.

This oppressive atmosphere, like a huge stone, weighed on his heart, making him almost breathless.

"Mr. Nakamura, is there any problem?" Keitake Kawaguchi couldn't stand the atmosphere, and the sweat on his back had already soaked his clothes.

"Don't worry, I'm just reminded of what happened before." Nakamura narrowed his eyes, with a smile on his face, "By the way, if possible, I'd like to go and see that match with my own eyes. You can find out what it is. when."

"No problem. Please leave this matter to me!" Kawaguchi Kyotake said solemnly.

"Well," Nakamura picked up the menu, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "shall we order first?"
