After drinking the water in the water glass in one breath, Horikita Suzune stretched. Her figure, which had begun to take shape, had the youthfulness of a girl and exuded the charm of a woman.
Horikita Suzune opened the door and walked out. She was covered in sweat by the quilt on the bed. She planned to take a shower first.
But the sweet smell in the air captured Horikita Suzune's attention faster. She sniffed it and walked towards the kitchen.
"Cream pudding, peach mousse cake, caramelized apple, yogurt cheese mousse, mango double-skinned milk, sesame potato cake, mango glutinous rice cake, dorayaki, blueberry pie."
"Well, it should be almost done."
Kitagawa Ryo nodded towards the seven or eight plates of exquisite desserts that were neatly placed on the chopping board. The portions were not large, but they should be enough for tasting.
However, she still noticed the approach of Horikita Suzune. After all, Horikita Suzune did not deliberately conceal the sound of her footsteps.
"Suzune is awake? Are you feeling better?"
Kitagawa Ryo slowly took off the gloves he had been wearing while cooking, and his slender palms and fingers were freed little by little from the restraints. It was obviously a very ordinary action, but when he did it, there was always something subtle about it. attraction.
"never mind."
Horikita Suzune responded casually. She was more curious about the desserts on the table now. Although Kitagawa Ryo took care of the family's dinner during this stay, this was the first time she had seen him make desserts on such a large scale.
Although Horikita Suzune is also very good at cooking and is considered one of the best among her peers, she actually has no experience in desserts.
Because it is unnecessary and meaningless, there is no need to learn it.
A simple and crude syllogism.
"I just have nothing to do for fun. Do you want to try Suzune?"
Noticing Horikita Suzune's gaze, Kitagawa Ryo also casually picked up a plate of dessert and handed it over.
"I might open a dessert shop in the future, just as a trial."
"...I'm not interested in desserts. Excessive sugar intake has no benefits except making people fat."
"And I haven't eaten much at all, so I can't satisfy your request to try it."
Horikita Suzune simply shook her head. She had always been a girl who was very purposeful, motivated and self-disciplined. For her, cooking was not to satisfy her appetite, but to develop her body.
This is her cooking style, and her choice of ingredients is also good for the body. This is one of the reasons why Horikita Suzune let Kitagawa Ryo stay here in the first place, because Kitagawa Ryo can completely satisfy Horikita Suzune's wishes. , combined with daily training to make appropriate dishes.
To sum up, Horikita Suzune thinks that she has no connection with desserts.
Although she often hears girls in the same grade discussing which nearby dessert shop has new products during class breaks, she also often sees students sitting at one table after another in a coffee shop after club activities. .
But Horikita Suzune really doesn't like it and has never had any experience with desserts.
"People always have to try. After all, before today, Suzanne was a good kid with zero absence rate."
Kitagawa Ryo had already taken the small spoon, and he thrust it into Horikita Suzune's hand along with the plate.
"There's no way to find your favorite flavor if you don't try it."
Horikita Suzune hurriedly looked at the desserts that were stuffed into her arms. The small and cute blueberry pie was proudly showing itself. When the spoon touched it slightly, the liquid inside was revealed.
Thinking that it was just to help the other party, Horikita Suzune tentatively took a piece and put it in her mouth.
And before she knew it, she had finished the entire plate.
Horikita Suzune came to her senses only when the spoon was mechanically reaching into the plate and then slammed into the empty bottom of the plate.
"It feels like it will sell well."
Horikita Suzune has not forgotten what Ryo Kitagawa said just now, and she affirmed it from a business perspective.
"What about Suzune's own feelings? For example, whether it's sweet or not sweet enough..."
"I think it's delicious. If all the desserts outside are made like this with Liang, I can understand the fanaticism of those girls."
It's really hard for girls to refuse desserts that are beautiful, delicious and easy to take photos with.
"So Suzune likes it?"
Kitagawa Ryo's tone contained a narrow smile:
"After all, Suzune just said she wouldn't accept dessert."
"...It's okay to eat properly."
Horikita Suzune took out another dorayaki at some point and said vaguely while biting the soft skin.
"Since Suzune said so, my plan to open a dessert shop should be fine."
Kitagawa Ryo clapped his hands. He watched patiently as Horikita Suzune tasted this and that. He completely forgot about taking a bath. He only smiled after all the desserts went into Horikita Suzune's stomach. said:
"Then I'll have to ask Suzune for help."
The last mouthful of cream choked Horikita Suzune's throat, and her purple-red pupils widened slightly, filled with doubts and confusion.
"You should eat my food."
Kitagawa Ryo said with his arms crossed.
"...Isn't it a taste test?"
"Have you ever seen a taster eat everything without leaving anything in one bite?"
Only then did Horikita Suzune notice the seven or eight empty plates, and she nodded stiffly.
This approach of giving rewards first and asking for them later is too despicable.
You can use it yourself in the future.
The girl nodded secretly.
----------------------------------------
After the lessons learned in the last simulation of Karuizawa Megumi, Kitagawa Ryo seemed quite casual in this simulation of Horikita Suzune.
Especially after Sakayanagi Yusu exposed Horikita Suzune's phantom, Kitagawa Ryo, who felt that there was no hope in this simulation, simply started to practice free-rangeism.
Opening a dessert shop is something he has always thought about, because he once worked in a dessert shop in his previous life. At the end of the day, he would occasionally get unsold desserts that were not in good quality from the shop owner and had always been Beichuan. Cool and impressive memory.
Just like how he was obsessed with game consoles in Karuizawa Megumi's second simulation, thinking about it now, it was actually because his previous desires were suppressed by his previous self, and finally burst out in the simulation.
It is probably the same as the retaliatory consumption behavior of having to give up a certain toy because of embarrassment when you were a child, and finally having enough financial strength to buy a dozen or twenty of them when you grow up.
Although I may no longer be interested in this, it just seems like I want to make up for my former self.
So Kitagawa Ryo plans to open his own dessert shop in this simulation.
And I just happened to get the talent [God of Cooking].
Kitagawa Ryo had already thought of a name, and it was called [Hotaro], just in time for that little guy to be the mascot.
[Small Wealth] Talent has already reserved a property for him, and the start-up capital has been gradually raised in recent years.
This is what Ryo Kitagawa has been busy with during the days when Horikita Suzune went to school.
But because she is a minor, Horikita Suzune's father has always been her guardian.
Anyway, [Three Relatives and Six Dependents] comes with a blood relationship with the Horikita family, so it's useless if you don't use it.
The shop is not big, and it is only open for fun anyway. Kitagawa Ryo is a pastry chef himself, and the scheduled goal is to recruit two waiters and a front desk, and these have been contacted in advance.
So in September of this early autumn, a dessert shop named [Firefaction] quietly appeared on the corner of the commercial street. There are several high schools and junior high schools nearby, so there is no need to worry about the number of customers.
When this dessert shop was first renovated, the nearby cafes, milk tea shops, and dessert shops had already taken notice.
In particular, the owner of a nearby maid coffee shop went to study it personally for a long time. After all, his colleagues were enemies. At first, he was a little worried about whether this shop was the same type as his, which easily won over students by relying on maids and two-dimensional gimmicks. Wallet store.
But after observing that the specific decoration of the store was fresh and elegant, the wallpaper was ordinary, and the sales staff were well-behaved, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It doesn't seem to be competitive.
He judged with a sneer.
However, the development of the situation soon exceeded his expectation.
The store was packed with people in just one afternoon on its opening day because of a super cute Lucky Cat.
Different from the plastic lucky cat painted with gold paint that can only move its arms up and down in the store, the one sitting on the counter and waving its hands cutely to attract customers is a very well-behaved and lovable real cat.
Live! It will move! She can also act cute!
If that's the case, that's fine. After all, there are cat cafes on this road that also sell cute pets.
The owner of the maid cafe is full of confidence because he believes that the attraction of pets cannot be compared to the waiters who will sweetly call you "Master" and wear black and white checkered maid uniforms.
Still too tender.
The man adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose.
Just a cat.
But he suddenly found that the students who were attracted by the cat into the store never came out again, followed by "It's great!" "I've never had such a delicious dessert" and "I felt like I was chewing sand before." A mixture of rubber and rubber."
It wasn't until this moment that he finally understood a truth.
Dessert shops, after all, sell desserts.
No, why would you just admit defeat like that!
So the next day, a passing student rubbed his eyes, and he asked the friend next to him uncertainly:
"Are the skirts in this store... too short?"
My friend looked it over gentlemanly and nodded firmly:
"Yes."
"Want to go in?"
"It's autumn now, it looks a bit cold, I worked too hard."
The boy poked his friend's arm. He had already found a high-sounding reason for himself.
But the two of them were still hesitant. After all, for fourteen- to fifteen-year-old students like them, it was always a bit of a mental barrier to enter such an imaginative store in public.
Just as the two of them were fighting in their hearts, they walked out of a nearby shop...
No, why does it feel like I was pushed out? I even staggered a bit. Hey.
Horikita Suzune really didn't know where Kitagawa Ryo bought such a leather case. It felt as if it was specially made for herself.
However, according to Kitagawa Ryo, the store's mascot is a kitten, so of course cats should be chosen for promotional leather cases.
Horikita Suzune straightened her hood and tried not to think about the two stupid cat ears on her head.
Fortunately, at least it was packed tightly, and others couldn't see the inside at all. Compared with the one I tried before, it was much better.
So people are all harmonious, and now Horikita Suzune suddenly feels that her body is pretty good.
She tried hard to get over the sight of herself wearing a cat-eared maid outfit in front of Kitagawa Ryo alone.
Horikita Suzune waved her hand tentatively, perhaps it should be said that it was a flesh pad.
"Um...welcome?"
ps: Adding updates depends on the status, because this book really takes time to write, especially now that it has 800,000 words, and the plot must be carefully considered.
ps2: Thank you for reading and subscribing. The concept of Horikita Suzune's cuisine is written in the eleventh volume of the original work, and a photo of Suzune's cat-eared maid is included_(:з」∠)_
Main plot: Kitagawa Ryo's strength supremacy classroom: Chapter 25: Grow up again
Two months passed as quickly as two days, and autumn did not leave a deep impression on people. It seemed that they were about to start wearing winter clothes in the blink of an eye.
Horikita Suzune was sitting at the front desk of this store called [Hotata]. It was not yet open. She held her head and looked at the window on the right.
There are five or six vases neatly placed there. These large and small, high and low bottles are bathing in the first ray of sunshine in the morning, and the ceramic surfaces exude a warm luster. The flowers inside were covered with sunlight and cast a sparkling shadow on the window sill. When they swayed in the wind, these waves also changed.
Horikita Suzune suddenly developed such a strange habit in the past month. She now likes to lie lazily on the counter at the front desk and watch the changes of light and shadow.
Sometimes she would take the initiative to water the flowers herself. Horikita Suzune also tried to plant a few seeds, but she didn't know which step went wrong and no buds emerged from the soil. Come forward.
It is clear that any cabbage planted in Beichuan Liang can grow gratifyingly, with cabbage flowers blooming like rice grains.
This was the first time Horikita Suzune saw cabbage flowers.
The small pale yellow flowers don't have anything special in appearance, but they are very novel.
It reminds Horikita Suzune of the first time she came to know the world as a child. She felt the most primitive curiosity about every new change and the satisfaction of knowing every new thing.
Maybe like Kitagawa Ryo said, she was just growing up again.
Horikita Suzune has abandoned her old schedule. She still gets up on time, goes to class on time, and her academic performance is still excellent, but her pace in all aspects has slowed down unknowingly.
