【Food Halberd Creation Tower】Winter Fog

six,

Takmi watched the forehead of the person in front of him twitch wildly, choked up a thousand words, and even wanted to swear, the scene in front of him was too magical.He just accepted the invitation and went back to Yuanyue to meet the commander-in-chief, and then went to the VIP lounge to meet his partner who came to help this time, but who did he see?

Wearing a well-made coat is full of flaws, but Takumi can still recognize the man in the room is an old friend who just had a passionate cooking confrontation with him at his house last month—Xing Hei Soma .

What a surprise, what a surprise.

Under Xinghei's gaze, Takumi secretly sighed, what kind of evil fate is this.

"Xinghei," Takomi called out weakly, and then stepped into the sofa opposite him and asked, "I think we need to have a good chat. What's going on? The phrase you said 'see you at the moon 'Is this what you mean? Isami and I originally thought that you were finally planning to attend the year-end class reunion this year."

"Yes," Xingping didn't show any surprise, as if he already knew all this, "That's what I meant at the time. Uh...Although there was a little episode in the middle, I hope you can listen to my explanation, Takumi."

Takumi raised his eyes and propped his chin up, listening attentively.

"Last month at your house, I received an email from Yuanyue, inviting me as the OB representative and former ten outstanding to organize the ultimate test of the first-year Hokkaido Entrance Examination." Xinghei said while observing Takmi's behavior Response, so that adjustments can be made at any time.

This is why Takmi will be here, and the two of them will be partners in charge of the examiner next.Takumi nodded her chin, tilted her head slightly, and the tip of her right ear slipped out of her blond hair. She listened carefully, and her eyes signaled Xinghei to continue talking.

"I thought at the time that I hadn't gone back for several years. After eating with you, I felt that I still needed to hone. Yuanyue was the place where I had the most inspiration. In addition, receiving emails was quite novel. All kinds of considerations added together …I agreed to it. That night I suddenly ran to Trattoria Aldini to find you, mainly because of this. Then I said 'see you at the moon' because I thought you would be invited, so I didn't think much about it, it was completely hot-headed."

That's it...Takomi pondered for a moment, always felt that something was wrong, raised his head and looked over Xingping, happened to see the clock hanging on the wall behind him, and he suddenly realized, "No, Xingping, you received it a month earlier than me. The invitation, according to Yuanyue's efficiency, is this too abnormal?"

When Xingping heard this, he immediately put on a stomach ache expression, raised his forehead to the sky and let out a long sigh.He shook his head, and reluctantly told the truth: "Actually... Yuanyue didn't intend to invite you at first. Nor invited me."

"This...so, what happened?" Takumi was a little dizzy.

"I also came here first to listen to the old man. I have practiced outside all these years and they never thought of finding me, so they were excluded from the list from the beginning. As for Takmi, the commander said that you rejected the invitation three times this year. , They guessed that you were still busy, and they didn't expect to find you this time."

"That's right. Xingping has almost no news about you, and it really doesn't look like you will be invited." Takmi chimed in at this time, "I said that I was helping Trattoria Aldini with Isami in the first half of the year, and I was busy with the wine cellar and The development of the new menu has almost turned down all invitations from the outside world. It is not unreasonable for the commander-in-chief to think so."

Xingping continued: "Winter is approaching, and all the restaurants are very busy. Most of the invitation list declined. In the end, only Master Shinomiya was confirmed to be able to come."

Hearing this name, Takumi felt emotional.Kojiro Shinomiya, known as the "Magician of Vegetables", is an outstanding graduate of the 79th class. While being active in the cooking industry, he can be called "enthusiasm" for the follow-up development of his alma mater.As long as he can spare time, he will basically agree to the invitation of the commander-in-chief and Director Dojima to help guide the younger generation.Tian Suohui also complained secretly in private, saying that senior Sigong is a villainous person behind Yan, who is still very gentle, and a hidden person who is very filial to his mother is not broken.

"The problem is, Master Sigong suddenly had a brain twitch for some reason. Seeing that he was alone, he thought of me for some reason. He said that he is here, and he must arrest his apprentices to help. So you guessed it, old man There used all means to contact me, and I happened to see the news, so I came." Xingping's face was full of helplessness.

"But I remember that Shinomiya-senpai didn't come this time." Takomi remembered that the commander said that there were only two people who came this time, except for the OBs who officially served in Totsuki like Dojima-senpai.

"Yes, the follow-up development, to be honest, the movie doesn't dare to act like this. When Master Shinomiya staggered the schedule and wanted to work with me - the head waiter of Shino's was pregnant and needed to give birth. The store was short of staff and the two were nervous for a moment, so he couldn't come. gone."

Xingping's words were a bit too informative. Takomi felt a headache when he heard it, as if he could imagine the distress of Senior Shinomiya, and he said with great sympathy: "It's really not something that can be done by force..."

"That's right, it didn't happen when I went to see him." Xingping muttered.

"When did you go to France?" Kojiro Shinomiya should be at Shino's Paris main store these days.

"After leaving Aldini, I stayed in Europe for a while. I remember telling you that I was going to harass acquaintances. Anyway, the time given by the commander was quite generous at that time." Xingping adjusted his sitting posture and answered Tucker Mi's question.

After hearing all the way, Takmi’s eyes on the whole incident became clearer. After receiving the invitation as a substitute, he didn’t have that much time. It only took three days to rush to Yuanyue after the online was finalized.

"Three days..." Takomi said to himself, turned his head to look at Xinghei, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and his voice slowly rose, "No, this still doesn't explain why I was invited, could it be... ..."

"That's right." Xingping guessed the second half of Takumi's unfinished sentence, and immediately answered, "I suggested it. Suggest to the commander-in-chief to see if you are interested in coming to help."

There was silence in the room, only the sound of heartbeat and breathing intermingled.After a long time, Takumi blurted out why from deep in his throat.

"This starts again before leaving Aldini," Xingping scratched his head embarrassedly, avoiding Takmi's gaze, and said the little secret hidden in his heart, "I didn't tell you' See you at Yuanyue? At first I thought you would also be invited, but who knew that you were not invited at all. Master Sigong didn’t come...so I mentioned you to the commander-in-chief logically. Just treat me as a lie gone."

This is really ridiculous, Takumi was almost stunned by Xinghei's words, but he finally figured out the ins and outs, and he lost his temper.

Seeing the corners of Takumi's mouth slightly raised, Xingping breathed a sigh of relief. He was originally worried that Takumi would be angry because of his self-indulgence.

"Takmi." Xinghei called out, with the same tone as before, drawing Takmi's attention back, "Then can I ask you a question?"

"You said."

"Then can Takumi tell me why you suddenly agreed to this invitation?"

Each word hit Takumi's chest.

****

"Brother, go if you want." Ever since the halberd eating, Yisami has read that Takmi has something on his mind, but due to various considerations, he has never figured it out.But at this moment, he really couldn't bear to see Takmi struggling with himself and suffering alone, so he blocked his brother at the door of the room and warned him.

Takmi was stunned for a moment, unable to hide the exhaustion after a day of work and ideological struggle in his eyes. He couldn't stand his younger brother's expression, and turned his head away from Isami's gaze.He put his hand on Yisami's shoulder, and gently pushed him into the room, "You know everything?"

"Brother's thoughts can't be hidden from me." The fingers on the shoulders were trembling slightly, Yisami raised his hand to cover it, took a deep breath, raised his eyes and said firmly: "TrattoriaAldini not only has you. There is also me here, Yisami Sammy Aldini, you don’t need to worry about it at all. You haven’t been able to figure out something about cooking recently. Isn’t it just right to go back to Yuanyue? You have found a way to break through in one breath. Besides, you want to go back and have a look."

Takmi didn't know that he was stunned by the sound of "Isami Aldini". The body temperature and strength of his younger brother came from the back of his hand. His heart moved and he murmured: "Isami, I'm sorry. Also, thank you you."

The two brothers hugged each other and quickly let go.

Takmi smiled self-deprecatingly, it really didn't look like himself to be so indecisive that he had to rely on his younger brother to wake him up.

"I decided to go back to Yuanyue." Takmi looked at the same clear eyes as himself and said, "I'll go and tell my father right away. Trattoria Aldini is handed over to you, Isami."

"Okay." Yisami and his elder brother clapped hands, facing Takmi's back as he rushed out of the door, secretly clenched their fists.Unlike his elder brother, compared to Yuanyue, this homeland is now the battlefield for him to seek self-growth.

Takmi talked to his family about Yuanyue’s invitation during dinner time. The Aldinis were not surprised to hear that the eldest son made such a decision. After a few words of encouragement, let him rest assured of his family and restaurants, and just pursue what he wants .After a heart-to-heart conversation with Isami, Takmi resumed his vigorous work style, arranged the handover in the store the next day, ensured that everything was in order, and immediately packed his bags and flew to Japan.

Before boarding the plane, Takmi and Isami embraced goodbye. He patted his younger brother Kuanshi on the back and said, "See you at the end of the year."

Isami smiled, and joked, "How can you say this like Xingping. I will definitely come to you at the end of the year party! Don't worry, Trattoria Aldini has me." After thinking about it, Isami added.

"Well, I trust you, Isami. So I'll focus on finding my answers. Goodbye."

Takmi picked up the random luggage, waved goodbye to the relatives and friends who saw him off, and set off immediately.

****

Xingping's sitting posture is still casual, but Takumi knows that the other party's posture of leaning forward at this moment is a sign of his seriousness.Faced with a somewhat aggressive posture, Takmi frowned slightly, and told the truth without hesitation: "I have encountered a bottleneck, and I have to change the environment to find a breakthrough."

Xingping understood, smiled with his lips curled up, did not continue to ask, and said something else: "It's been a long time since I went around and partnered with Takmi." Whether it's a competitor or a partner, it's really Familiar formula.

"In the beginning, I was only told that my partner was from the same class, and I thought most of them were Ye Shan who stayed in Yuanyue and focused on scientific research and education." Although there were not many friends who had good relations with the same class, Takmi was more or less through Isa Mi knows everyone's dynamics, and knows who is free and who is busy recently.

"Unfortunately, Ye Shan skipped a grade and graduated early, and then he will study for a doctorate. I met him before you. You don't know that he looks like a neurasthenic and his hair is white!"

"Hayama's hair is always white, okay! He's really good at it." Hearing Xingping's exaggerated complaints about his friends, the atmosphere eased a lot. Takomi was amused by Xinghei who was full of trains, and thought to himself that he would be right when he came back this time. up.

After chatting for a few words, Xingping turned his head and looked at the time, and quickly asked Takmi: "Let's go to the commander-in-chief and Dojima-senpai, and then I will take you to the teacher's apartment. You should hurry up and get a good rest after flying back. .”

Facing Xinghei's concern, Takumi felt a little warm in his heart. Don't open your face and say that you have a proper body, and it's important to finish the handover work first.Immediately after he turned to open the door, Xingping caught a glimpse of his reddened ear tips without realizing it.

The commander-in-chief and Dojima sympathized with Takmi's travels and dust, and they were also efficient. After helping Takmi with the formalities, they urged them to go back to rest.Xingping accompanied Takmi to pick up the luggage, and then drove him to the teacher's apartment.

The familiar scenery outside the window flashed through memory one by one. Takmi leaned on the back of the back seat, his body was exhausted, but his spirit was very clear.

When he got off the car at the apartment, Takumi couldn't help but touch his forehead when he saw that Xingping skillfully moved his things into a room, and when it was obvious that someone had lived in that apartment.

——Recently, the teacher's apartment in the east is being renovated, so you two can just make do and live in a suite in the west.

It was only then that Takumi remembered what he said casually about going to Dojima.

Looking at the busy red back in front of him, Takumi was not as at a loss as he expected. He walked in and told Xingping that he could come by himself.

While packing his things, Takumi's thoughts wandered all over the place. He had a hunch that he could find all the answers here.
