"It's so delicious~! This is a dish that makes full use of spring ingredients!! Such a slender dish was completed in the blink of an eye." Xinghei was still feeling emotional.

"Next, it's your turn. Next, let me read the stories you told in the utensil appeal..." Yisehui said.

"I understand a little bit why my father sent me to Yuanyue..." Xingping thought to himself, and a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

please wait! ! Xinghei stood up, took off the scarf tied on his arm, and tied it on his forehead.

"Well, come on." Shi Ke said.

"Isshiki-senpai's grilled fish with peppercorns and cabbage puree..., doesn't the senior have a traditional Japanese restaurant at home?" Xinghei sat down.

"..., why do you think of this?" Yisehui rubbed his chin and asked.

"Because pepper grilled fish with cabbage puree is a classic in Japanese cuisine. And the skill to make this kind of finished product is beyond the reach of ordinary restaurants. The fish grilled slowly over a warm fire, served with spring cabbage The cabbage as the base is surprising. The sweet and soft taste is a perfect match with the fish. Fish and spring cabbage, which are abundant in spring,...the two complement each other and enhance each other's freshness...it is perfect The combination is like the flowers blooming in spring! The fish... is good!! Just use the twenty of the hidden menu of Xinghei restaurant."

"Xingping?"

"My family owns a restaurant. I also use fish as the main ingredient. I want to make a popular dish of Xingping restaurant with the theme of spring like my senior!!"

"Woohoo..." After ten minutes, Yoshino Yuki and Ryoko woke up.

"Uh...did I fall asleep just now? Uh...it's strange, Xingping-kun is cooking?" Yuki rubbed her eyes and said.

"Are you still hungry?" Ryoko asked.

"They are competing in cooking." Yiwu Qijun, who had been sleeping on the bookshelf, suddenly said.

"Oh, Ibuzaki, are you awake?" Yuuhime was startled.

"Just woke up."

To be honest, if Ibuzaki didn't move, with his hair covering his eyes, the devil would know that this guy was awake.

"Those two confront each other? Why? Why?" Yuuhime asked.

"I don't know, but this duel... seems to be initiated unilaterally by Senior Isshiki."

"..." The three of them looked at the picture of the competition between the two, and Yuki said, "Don't you need to comment on Senior Isshiki's attire at this time?"

"It's a rare culinary showdown, it seems a little bad to pour cold water..." Liangzi hesitated and said.

Zila! Cha Cha Cha Cha! Clang!

"It's done!" Xinghei served the food, "Xinghei Restaurant's hidden menu 20 (revised), fish and rice balls with tea and rice."

Shi Ke looked at the five bowls on the table and nodded.

"Actually, this dish was originally made with salmon, but this time I tried to make it with fish. Come on, let's try it first." Xinghei said.

"What's in the rice?" Liangzi looked at the crystal clear soup in the bowl.

"Salty kelp tea." Shi Ke took a sip.

"The combination of light salty taste and aroma is just right for a perfect ending to a meal."

"Really! Serving this kind of rice will definitely make people hungry!!" Yuuji complained.

"But that's all, this can only be regarded as an ordinary ochazuke, right? It can be seen everywhere in public restaurants. Well, you have to eat it to know." After thinking about it, Isshihui picked up the rice.

"I'm done eating. It tastes really good." Shi Ke had already put down the bowl.

"..., how hungry are you? We haven't even started eating yet." You Ji complained.

"Evaluation or something, you are qualified to speak after eating." Shi Ke smiled.

"Yeah. Eat." Yuki started to eat.

"It's so delicious!!" The three commented at the same time.

"The fish is so juicy. What's more, the fish skin is so crispy, every bite will make people feel delicious!!" Yuki said.

"Just baking it shouldn't have this effect, right? How did it work?" Ryoko said.

"Sauce fried." Shi Ke said.

"Yeah. That's right, this fish is made from fried fish." Yishihui said.

"Fried!!!" Several other people said in surprise.

"Why are you so surprised?" Yuki asked Xinghei who was the most surprised just now.

"Ah... no, I'm just wondering what shengjian is?"

"Raw frying, a kind of French cooking method, is to use a spatula to press the ingredients so that the color of the ingredients is even when frying. When frying fish, in order to remove the fishy smell, it is necessary to remove the oozing from the fish at any time. and add some olive oil in an appropriate amount. Can you tell me? How do you know the cooking method of this French cuisine?" Yishihui asked.

"No, I learned this technique from my dad. He said it's the best way to fry the fish crispy. You can taste the crispiness of the fish with rice, and the fish soaked in seaweed tea will become soft Some, so that you can taste a different texture from crispy. No matter which way you eat, raw pan-fried is the most suitable for this dish." Xinghei said.

"Your father learned French cooking?" Yi Sehui said.

"I'm not very clear about this either. He seems to have cooked dishes all over the world."

"How to cook French side dishes in the same way as onigiri, without being restricted by region or nationality. What kind of free cooking is this?"

"And raw frying is suitable for ingredients with thicker skins. Salmon... the skin of fish has a certain thickness, which is the most suitable ingredient for this kind of processing. He can actually see through this in an instant to decide how to cook the ingredients..." Isshiki Hui thought for a while and continued to eat.

"The rice shines with pure white brilliance, just like snow... The fish emerging out of the snow is like the vitality of spring. He uses this dish to interpret the moment when spring begins...Spring is born..."

The three put down their bowls and smiled contentedly.

"It's so beautiful... It's like the winter snow has melted, Mr. Chuangzhen!" Yishihui was so moved that tears flowed down her cheeks.

"Senior is the one..., I can feel... the fresh spring breeze from the senior's dishes." Xingping said.

"Thank you for letting me experience a good game!" The two held hands tightly.

Tian Suohui, who just woke up in a daze, was stupefied.

"What's the situation? This scene of a classmate shaking hands with a crying man in the middle of the night?"

At this time, the others gradually woke up.

"Papapa..." Yuuki patted the face of Marui Zenji, who was lying on his back while sleeping, and remained motionless.

"No, I can't wake up at all."

"..." Everyone looked at the messy room, "Okay. Disband."

"We will definitely clean it for you next time, Marui. Really! We will definitely clean it for you next time." After Sato Shoji finished speaking, all the people left the room, only Ishike, Isshiki Hui and Xinghei were left.

After going out, Tian Suohui asked Ryoko, "Why did senior Isshiki provoke a culinary showdown this time?"

"Who knows? He's always done whatever he wants." Ryoko said.

"You don't have to care about weird people's thoughts." Yuuhime said.

In the room, "Marui-kun, let's sleep warmly for the night." Isshiki Kei was covering Marui Zenji who was lying on the ground unconscious.

Xingping was yawning next to him and wiping his knife. He was so sleepy cooking in the middle of the night!

"After this welcome meeting, you will become members of Jixing. If there is anything you don't understand, please feel free to ask." Isshiki said as she covered Marui with a quilt.

"So...how can I join the Ten Elites?" Xingping asked.

Shi Ke, who was picking up trash next to him, yawned when he heard this.

"... Haha, yes. You are going to climb to the top of this school."

"I am arguing with my dad right now. If I want to get my dad's approval, I have to do this. The duel just now was just a draw. If I win the senior now, does it mean that I am far away?" The seventh place in the month?" Xingping was a little crazy.

Shi Ke yawned again.

"It's great~! Your self-motivation is really touching!! Soshin-kun!! I'm so touched now!! I think students living in Jixing should be like you!!" Yisehui was not unhappy, but she was so moved that she burst into tears.

"Oh...oh!" Xingping was startled and confused.

"But let's stop here for today's competition. It's already very late, let's go to bed early. Mr. Chuangzhen." After finishing speaking with squinted eyes, Yishihui thought to herself, "What you said that day I think... you will soon feel how much weight you will bear behind... After all, in the true sense of this academy..., culinary skills dominate everything"

"Okay! Finished cleaning up. Please trouble Marui-kun with the small trash." Shike said while carrying two large plastic bags, which were filled with the paper cups and drinks bottles he had just used.

"Yeah. It's good to have a rare cleaning. Let's go. Don't disturb Marui-kun's sleep." Isshiki pointed to Marui Zenji who was blowing snot bubbles on his nose.

"Let's go." Shi Ke returned to his new room with his luggage, and then threw the garbage into the trash can in the kitchen on the first floor.

"Good night, both of you." Shi Ke returned to the second floor, said hello and closed the door.

Isshiki Hui and Xingping felt a little strange in their hearts at this time, "Why do I feel like I forgot something very important?"
