"There is a legend about a monster in Hikono Town. This legend has been circulating for a long time and has been with us old people throughout our childhood. At that time, Hikono Town was not a town. It had only one street. It was a small village, which was called Hikono Village."

In the hotel, an old man was telling a group of people about Wanye Town.,

Baili Yuan and Fujii Momoka were among the crowd.

This old man is one of the initiators of this exchange meeting, and his hometown is Yanye Town.

This exchange meeting was chosen here because the theme of this exchange meeting is "Taste of Hometown". I hope to explore the special foods of various places and then exchange and learn from each other.

In addition, choosing Hianye Town as the venue for the exchange meeting also promoted Hikono Town in disguise. Hikono Town is developing and needs this kind of publicity.

The construction site that Bailiyuan and the others saw when they arrived was a manifestation of the urbanization of the development of Yanye Town!

The elements of the village gradually disappeared, and the elements of the city gradually enriched. Although people's lives began to become rich, the surrounding natural environment began to change, and the memories in many people's hearts also disappeared little by little.

We cannot say whether this change is good or bad, nor can we comment on whether this change is right or wrong. Development and conservatism are inherently opposite propositions, and the ancient things that have been handed down will eventually be clothed in modern clothes.

Times will eliminate the old, and old things will have no market in front of the new generation.

For example, now, most of the young people in the crowd are not interested in the old man's story, even Fujii Momoka.

However, although he is not interested, as a junior, he still has the courtesy and will not show any impatience.

The story the old man told was "The Legend of Master Ayan".

Obik, also known as "Master Ayan", is a monster who has lived in Hikono Street a long time ago. He often moves with his partner Shadow Mage. He is not good at light and moves in the dark, living in darkness.,

The call of "Come and play with Obik" will come from behind the person. It is said that the person who turns around will be eaten. Some people say that he was actually taken away by Master Ayan to play with him.

This is the story, but the old man told it with more sense of story, so it would be a pity not to write about it.

However, the old man is a chef, a highly respected one.

Although the status of chefs in this world is not that high, as long as they have some strong strength in a certain industry, status and reputation will follow.

The old man seemed to notice that the young people were not interested in these things. After telling the story, he smiled.

"Sorry, I said a little too much."

"Nothing, what you said is very good, we like to hear it"

"Then let me tell you one more thing."

""

"Haha, of course I'm joking." The old man said very naughtily.

"But I am telling you this to tell everyone not to forget the past. Human beings have inherited the past from generation to generation to get to where they are now. Life becomes better not because of one person's inspiration, but because of the efforts of the predecessors.

And accumulation has given future generations the opportunity to have a flash of inspiration." said the old man.

Some people are thoughtful.

"But we can't rest on our laurels. Innovation is the correct way to use what we have inherited, and it represents the growth of people. Even though I am an old guy, I am still like this. This also applies to cooking."

"The theme this time is the taste of hometown. After one week, everyone is required to submit a dish that meets the theme. At that time, five of us from the older generation will serve as judges and select the first place.

, the only people who can participate in the selection are everyone present."

The old man paused for a moment when he said this, and then showed a provocative smile.

"The final winner will get a personal recipe for each of the five of us, and will also receive my dear letter of introduction to participate in the World Culinary Competition!"

As the old man finished speaking, Bailiyuan clearly felt that many people around him were breathing heavier.

"Okay, let's disband and gather here again in a week. During this time, you can think about what you want to cook. If you need a kitchen, you can go to the staff. He

We will make arrangements for you, and even though Hikono Town is still rich in food, okay, let’s disband.”

After saying that, the old man left with the other four old men. They were all referees of this exchange meeting. In order to avoid suspicion, they would not interact too much with other people.

At least not now. I don’t know if anyone will go looking for them in the future.

The crowd also left in twos and threes, communicating with each other.

Mr. Miyamoto also left with Baili Yuan and Fujii Momoka.

"I didn't expect Mr. Mano to be so generous. I thought it was just an ordinary exchange meeting." Mr. Miyamoto sighed.

Zhenye is the old man's surname.

"Mr. Miyamoto didn't know this before?" Bailiyuan asked.

Mr. Miyamoto shook his head.

"This kind of exchange meeting happens every year, and it doesn't have so many events. Mr. Mano didn't inform you before. He just said that he could bring a few juniors he liked to come to exchange and learn. I thought this was another ordinary exchange meeting."

"I will definitely win!" Fujii Momoka said excitedly.

Bailiyuan looked at the two of them and said nothing. He didn't know anything and didn't dare to ask anything.

After all, everyone seems to know about what the old man said, and they are all paying attention to it. If Bailiyuan doesn't know about it for the time being, what if he is regarded as an alien?

Fortunately, there is also Caroline. There must be relevant information on the Internet for such a famous thing.

Thank you for the progress of the times.

Mr. Miyamoto shook his head after hearing what Momoka Fujii said.

"Don't be too careless. Although many of the people present are here to visit, there are also several very capable new generations among them, and we older chefs can also participate."

"What, can it be like this?" Fujii Momoka said in surprise.

"Don't worry, I won't participate in the competition, but others may not." Mr. Miyamoto shook his head.

"I won't give up. I will definitely come up with the number one dish in a week!"

"Yeah." Mr. Miyamoto's attitude was unexpectedly perfunctory. It felt like he was "lying against his will."

In fact, what Mr. Miyamoto did not say was that in his eyes, Fujii Momoka was here to visit, and he was able to bring Fujii Momoka here just for her father's sake.

As for Baili Yuan, Mr. Miyamoto is interested in promoting him.

Because except for Fujii Momoka, the other new chefs have just entered the kitchen, they can usually only cut vegetables and work as waiters. Although they work in the cafeteria, they don’t even look at the cafeteria, so the requirements for chefs are also limited.

Very high.

If you don’t have enough cooking skills, you are not allowed to cook!

There is a strict hierarchy in the kitchen!

There are very few chefs like Bailiyuan who can cook by themselves and are excellent in all aspects. Considering Bailiyuan's age, Mr. Miyamoto attaches great importance to Bailiyuan.

The most important thing is that Bailiyuan is very popular in the kitchen. Although he is good at cooking, he is not arrogant and has no idea of ​​​​conquering his superiors.

He is an excellent person.

If it's brother Baili, maybe you can

Thinking of this, Mr. Miyamoto patted Bailiyuan on the shoulder.

"Come on, brother Baili."
