Shokugeki: Start with an izakaya, making everyone cry

Chapter 217: The Collapse of Nito Hisako

"Can you win?"

Hisako looked at Erina with nervous and expectant eyes.

"I'm not sure. After all, I haven't tasted Kurokiba Ryo's cuisine, so I can't use God's Tongue to compare!"

Erina, tell the truth.

"is it?"

Fei Shasha felt a little helpless when he learned that there was no 100% chance of winning the turtle burger.

This morning, her four-thing bitter melon and mutton soup had already been lost to Kurokiba.

Therefore, it would be false to say that there is no pressure.

Seeing her depressed and tense all the time, Erina couldn't help but feel a little sad: "Hisako, winning or losing is not important."

"Anyway...it's just an autumn selection. It's great to win. If you lose, I won't blame you!"

"Ok!"

"I see."

Hearing this, Fei Shasha could only force a smile.

……

At 2 o'clock in the morning, the lights of the izakaya gradually dimmed.

The aroma of wine and barbecue still lingers in the air, as if telling the story of tonight's gathering and farewell.

Because he has to run his own Chunguoting restaurant during the day, Zhang Fan usually asks Mujiuzhi Yuanguo to leave at 12 o'clock.

At this moment, Taki Kadozaki is busy. She is clearing away the dishes on the table and carefully wiping every corner of the table with a rag, bringing a perfect end to this warm "little shop"!

The owner, Zhang Fan, stood in front of the cooking counter, looking at this izakaya that had been in business for more than three months, and felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

With the preliminary round over, he thought there would be a lot of Totsuki students coming to the izakaya to spend money tonight.

As a result, I never expected that the time of the quarterfinals was actually different from the original plot, and was directly moved forward to tomorrow morning.

In this case, people like Alice, Hisako, Erina, etc. will definitely not come to the izakaya tonight.

As for Tadokoro Megumi, she has a relatively good mentality and does not attach much importance to her reputation and performance in the autumn selection. After all, it is quite good to break into the quarterfinals with her level.

"Ding dong!"

"Host, successfully signed in once."

"Ding dong!"

"Congratulations to the host for getting a new special recipe of bouncing turtle soup, 2 fresh turtles!"

"Huh? Today's sign-in reward is actually bouncing turtle soup?"

Zhang Fan was stunned when he learned that the new reward was a special recipe of bouncing turtle soup.

This dish is actually a dish from "The Little Master of China".

Its producer is a friend of Liu Pleiades:

Tang Sanjie.

The method of making it is quite unique, you have to steam the soft-shelled turtle in cantaloupe.

And add salted plums for seasoning, and finally wait until it cools and solidifies into fish jelly.

Well, the biggest feature of this dish is its amazing elasticity. When diners eat it, they can feel that the turtle jelly is very elastic, as if there are countless turtles dancing on the tip of the tongue.

In terms of taste, it is relatively bland, but it is better than many dishes made from soft-shelled turtles.

All in all, the bouncing turtle soup may not be as stunning as the strong chilled sea bream, Sholong dumplings, etc., but it is a classic dish suitable for izakayas!

……

The time is exactly 8 o'clock in the morning.

On both sides of the road, some fragrant flowers look particularly beautiful in the morning light.

They are either in bud or in full bloom. As the breeze blows, the faint floral fragrance spreads into the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.

The first round of the autumn quarterfinals is about to begin.

"Hey!"

"Good morning, dear viewers!"

"Today we have two games from the quarter-finals and now it's the first leg."

"The participating students from both sides are the third place Hisako Nito from Division A and the second place Ryo Kurokiba. Please come on."

As soon as the female emcee Rei Kawashima finished speaking, the entire competition venue was filled with excitement.

"Miss, I will definitely defeat Kurokiba Ryo."

Nito Hisako, who walked slowly from the lounge and came to the stage, couldn't help but look at Erina Nakiri standing next to the judges' table, her eyes became extremely firm.

At the same time, Ryo Kurokiba appeared in front of the public with dark circles under his eyes and a lazy and leisurely attitude.

Seeing the two people appear on the stage, Kawashima Rei did not dare to neglect and directly announced the start of the cooking competition.

In the first round of the quarter-finals, the cooking topic for both teams is burgers, and they can use everything prepared in advance on the stage, or use the ingredients they bring. In short, there are no restrictions on the ingredients.

Then, the cooking time is 1 hour, which is quite tight.

At this time, Nito Feishako was clutching a turtle tightly.

"Wow!"

"Look, it's actually a turtle!"

"And it's still a living turtle. She...what does she want to do?"

"The title of the competition is burgers, so does it need something like turtle?"

"She picked up the kitchen knife."

"Wait, does she want to..."

When the lively turtle appeared, many people in the audience focused their attention on Fei Shasha.

Nito Hisako, however, did not care at all about the reaction of the melon-eating crowd in the audience. She tightened her gaze and directly turned the turtle over so that its back was on the ground and its belly was in the sky.

Then, wait until the soft-shell turtle stretches its neck to its longest length.

One knife fell!

……

"interesting."

"No wonder, Miss Alice often tells me to be careful about this secretary."

With the corner of his eye, he glanced at Nito Hisako, who was handling the turtle, and Kurokiba Ryo across from him couldn't help but let out a lazy breath.

Then, he rubbed his sleepy eyes and tied a scarf with a flame icon on his forehead.

"Now, let's start my stage performance!"

After saying this, Kurokiba Ryo suddenly turned into another person, with a very irritable temper.

At this time, he finally no longer exuded a lazy temperament, but was like a ferocious beast, exuding particularly dangerous signals.

Da Da Da~

Da Da Da~

He took some vannamei shrimp and processed them with a kitchen knife.

The sound produced by the rapid collision between the kitchen knife and the chopping board is undoubtedly like the howling of a wild animal.

It is shaking all the audiences every moment!

……

Knife skills.

To a certain extent, it all depends on brute force.

However, if you take a closer look, you can see that Liang is handling shrimps with a kitchen knife. Although he looks like he is domineering and brute force, there is a sense of delicacy that is different from ordinary people in his roughness.

It seems random and arrogant, but every cut is made very accurately!

"Cool!"

"This...this knife skill is unrivaled."
