Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

Chapter 159 Sources of Pressure

How's the situation today?

It's subtle...

At night, Liu Maoxing was already lying on the bed in the hotel, facing Erina's question on the phone, the meaning of the answer was somewhat unclear.

What do you mean? Have you found a way to make Kikuchi Sonoka focus? Erina asked puzzled.

No.

Then... what's the gain?

No.

...Isn't that the worst situation! What is 'subtle'? The field training is only for a week, and it's not bad if you don't gain anything for a whole day? Erina said helplessly.

Is it bad? Liu Maoxing muttered, and the scene of catching the thief appeared in his mind again.

Doesn't look too bad?

Then how are you going to achieve 'seeing is believing'? Erina asked rhetorically.

Liu Maoxing, who was wandering away, heard Erina's words in a trance, but didn't hear them clearly, and suddenly felt anxious, and quickly said: What seeing is believing? It was an accident!

Huh? Erina was also dazed on the other end of the phone, wondering what Liu Maoxing was talking nonsense.

The qualification standard for field training is to achieve seeing is believing results. How could this be an accident?

Ahem, no, nothing, I mean... I will work hard!

You didn't see something you shouldn't see, did you?

Liu Maoxing was startled in his heart, and thought to himself: Erina, who even needs to supplement her love knowledge by reading shoujo manga, when did she have such a keen intuition?

No! Chunguo Pavilion is not a black shop, is there anything you shouldn't see? Hahaha... Liu Maoxing reacted quickly, and immediately changed the subject.

Is that so? Erina was still suspicious.

It seems that anti-scientific things like women's intuition, as long as they reach a certain stage, even a girl with a dark belly, a vicious tongue, an arrogant and willful low EQ... can also be awakened!

Why do I feel that you are thinking something very rude? Erina's intuition worked again.

No way...don't worry! It's just field training, it won't bother me! Liu Maoxing brought the topic back.

Erina seemed to really regard intuition as an illusion, but before hanging up, she reminded Liu Maoxing of a sentence that made Liu Maoxing sweat like a waterfall: Seduce the female chef, or let the female chef find the other half. Such things cannot be counted as 'seeing is believing'...it's the same as 'not using a female body style, even if it has a Japanese style'!

...

Erina obviously still remembers Liu Maoxing's breaking by Mizuhara Fuyumi when the two collaborated for the first time.

Early the next morning, when Liu Maoxing came to Chunguo Pavilion to report again, he once again experienced the baptism of everyone's knife-like eyes.

Fortunately, there are no customers at this time, otherwise Chunguo Pavilion might lose its qualification because of the restaurant service...

In fact, it was precisely because there were no guests that Die Yequan, Xiangori and the others just stared at Liu Maoxing in such a big way in the front hall.

Feeling guilty, Liu Maoxing could only smile smugly, but when he wanted to go to the lounge, he was stopped by Die Yequan.

You are not allowed to approach the lounge in the future! This is the key to the small warehouse in North Point that is not used! Die Yequan directly forbade him from approaching the lounge.

I didn't know before... Liu Maoxing whispered.

Huh? What did you say?

I said 'yes'!

In fact, Liu Maoxing was really not to blame for this incident. After all, Liu Maoxing thought to himself at the time that everyone in the store knew where he was, and he was sure that it would not be one of us who spoke in the lounge.

Of course, it is not wrong for Mu Jiuzhiyuan Guo to add clothes secretly. Although the reason for such trouble is caused by some kind of advantage in his body, it is not good to speak directly to others! Especially for a junior...

So before, whether it was her or other insiders, they avoided talking about it, and after cooking, they would only quietly go back to the lounge, change their clothes and come out, but Liu Maoxing misunderstood it!

The reason why Die Yequan and others didn't stop Liu Maoxing from going to the lounge was because they were sure that Yuanguo would lock the door when changing clothes. Who knew that Liu Maoxing would break the lock and go in!

When Liu Maoxing took off his coat in the warehouse and changed into the uniform of Chun Guo Pavilion and came out, Mu Jiuzhi Yuan Guo also came out of the kitchen and prepared a ham and chicken roll...

That, that...Student Liu Maoxing, you... you should try it! Mu Jiuzhi said with evasive eyes.

But at this time, not to mention Liu Maoxing's field training task, which is to assist Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo to pass the assessment, if there is any abnormality, it will make the two of them even more embarrassed.

So Liu Maoxing tried the Chunguoting Special Ham and Chicken Roll in front of him as usual.

Sure enough, a very stable tiger... I mean the level of the signature dishes of the one-star restaurant! Liu Maoxing encouraged.

Obviously, Mu Jiuzhiyuan Guo has heard this sentence countless times, but he is not too happy, because the biggest problem is still not solved.

This time Liu Maoxing already knew the truth, so naturally he didn't dare to make any request to watch from the kitchen.

After eleven o'clock, a few tables reserved customers came, Liu Maoxing, a guy who affected the appearance of the store, naturally hid in his small warehouse.

Otherwise, even if he doesn't do anything, standing in the front hall will damage the overall appearance of Chunguo Pavilion. After all, he can't demand himself according to the standard of a waiter in a star-rated restaurant.

And when he went to the kitchen... Liu Maoxing felt a little embarrassed, and he had watched the ordinary cooking process many times, so there was no need to observe it, so he simply figured out what to do in the small warehouse.

The problem with Mujiu Zhiyuan fruit is that it is easily affected by external pressure...whether it is physical or psychological!

In contrast, physical pressure is easier to deal with. Mu Jiuzhi Sonoko has already thought of a way, and what he has to do is to relieve the other party's psychological pressure.

Usually the best way to relieve stress is to distract, but it doesn't work now... Liu Maoxing said to himself.

The current state of Mujiuzhiyuan fruit, if it is functioning normally, can indeed pass the assessment, but the eating sensation itself requires a high degree of concentration, once the attention is distracted, it can be regarded as normal in itself!

I really envy Erina... Although Kadozaki-senpai is more difficult to get along with, God's tongue is useless for things like 'psychological problems'...

Thinking of the weekend, when Erina taunted herself as a friend of women on the phone, Liu Maoxing couldn't help laughing bitterly, she was really a woman... No, the fate of friends of girls!

The academy didn't know if it was premeditated, or it was a wrong move, or it was simply due to the bad relationship between Liu Maoxing and Kadozaki Taki.

If it was Erina who came, she would definitely be able to succeed...and double the pressure on Kikuchi Sonoka!

Erina's character would probably say something like I don't want to affect my fieldwork results because of you, don't lose face or something...

Wait, more pressure? Liu Maoxing suddenly seemed to think of something.

Thinking of Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo's appearance of worrying about gains and losses when he arrived on the first day, and worrying about dragging down his field study results, Liu Maoxing suddenly thought, might Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo be nervous , not because of herself, but worried about others?

Worrying about affecting Liu Maoxing's field training results is only one aspect. Maybe he is still worried that because of his own mistakes, the efforts of Diano Izumi and Kaori will be in vain. Will you be disappointed...

To put it another way, it's also because everyone's expectations of her are too high!

Kikuchi Sonoka is just a girl who is only 18 or 9 years old and has a very introverted personality. Is it really okay for the academy to promote her as a monster who can compete with professional star chefs although she is young?

Including Liu Maoxing himself, hasn't he been forcing Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo for his own field study?

Perhaps praise after tasting her food again and again, not only does not build confidence, but it has the opposite effect! Liu Maoxing couldn't help but knocked hard on his head.

Of course, the only thing that makes Liu Maoxing feel that she and Yuanyue Academy are not really very despicable is that Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo herself also likes cooking, otherwise she would not be able to have the current attainments in cooking.

But it's one thing for someone to like her, it doesn't mean she doesn't care about other people's burdens on her...

Moreover, Kikuchi Sonoka's character is different from Kadozaki Taki, who has always been competitive. These burdens on her did play a role of motivation, but at the same time, it also made her psychologically weak under these burdens. Began to deform under the pressure!

Afterwards, Liu Maoxing's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he thought about it for a long time in the warehouse... until after 2:30, the Chunguo Pavilion closed again, and Liu Maoxing did not come out.

It wasn't until after seven o'clock in the evening, when everyone was packing up and getting ready to leave work, that Liu Maoxing came out of the warehouse.

It turned out that Die Yequan and the others had already changed their clothes and were about to leave, while chatting about the evaluation in a few days...

Of course, although Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo is worried that he will be out of order, in fact, only Liu Maoxing in the store approves of this matter, and the others are still full of confidence!

When it comes to this matter, they all have a tone of the garden fruit must be fine...

Their personal relationship with Yuan Guo is actually very good, which can be seen from the fact that they almost silenced Liu Maoxing before.

Even if they are excited about going to pass the star rating, it is not because of any benefits they will get, but because they are happy and proud of Yuanguo. They do not realize that it is their expectation that has caused invisible damage to Yuanguo. pressure……

For example, Liu Maoxing noticed now that senior sister Mu Jiuzhi was actually a pillar away from them, leaning against the pillar without making a sound, her face was full of exhaustion.

Although Kikuchien has more fruit than Kazaki Takigami, it is obviously more arousing people's desire for protection than the latter...

Just like Liu Maoxing walked up to Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo right after the others left.

Huh? Classmate Liu Maoxing? You, you haven't left yet? Go back and rest! Mu Jiuzhi Yuanguo said unnaturally.

Sister, are you tired?

No! Mu Kuchi Sonoka's tone became even more unnatural.

Liu Maoxing suddenly laughed heartily, and then said something that didn't match his hearty appearance at all!

Let's elope tomorrow!

Well, tomorrow... eh? Eh, eh?
