People from the Cheng Rin and Zhenggong teams gathered around Akashi Asuka and said with tears in their eyes.
It feels so good to be able to escape death.
Akashi Asuka frowned and said, "Don't be too happy too early! Does anyone here know how to cook?"
Everyone: "Uh..."
Akashi Asuka continued: "Don't forget, if we can't find enough contestants next time, it means that we will still have the 'big meal' carefully prepared by those two people in the evening. Only the more people participate in the competition, the better.
The greater our hope of survival."
Hinata Junpei: "... Kagami, Mitobe, I remember you two are good at cooking! Whether we can survive tonight depends on you."
Kuroko Tetsuya said weakly: "Well~~~In fact, I can also boil eggs."
Takao Kazunari suddenly interrupted and said: "Oh! It seems interesting! By the way, I remember Xiaozhen, you seem to know how to cook! Why don't you also sign up to compete!"
Shintaro Midorima said angrily: "Takao, don't sign me up for some inexplicable games."
Kuroko Tetsuya's voice became weaker and weaker, and he said: "That~~~boiled eggs."
Akashi Asuka's eyes lit up and he said: "So Midorima can also cook? That would be great. I will also participate in this competition. In this way, I, Kagami, and Midorima will have a duel again. How can I say that?
Midorima, are you scared?"
Shintaro Midorima pushed up his glasses and snorted coldly: "Hmph~~ Your provocation is too clumsy, Akashi!"
······
Ten minutes later.
Reiko Aida, Yuzuki Kitayama, Rinnosuke Mitobe, Taiga Kagami, Asuka Akashi, and Shintaro Midorima each occupied a stove in the kitchen.
Aida Reiko and Kitayama Yuzuki were so confident that they didn't pay attention to any other opponents except each other.
The harmonious atmosphere between the two of them chatting and laughing just now has disappeared, and was replaced by a pervasive smell of gunpowder smoke.
Mitobe Rinnosuke happened to be caught between the two women. Before the game started, Mitobe, who suffered from severe social phobia, was already frightened out of his body by the terrifying aura exuded by the two women.
The remaining three people, Kagami Taiga, Akashi Asuka, and Midorima Shintaro, had dull expressions, and they could not see the seriousness of participating in the competition at all.
"Gulu~~ Are these guys reliable?"
Hinata Junpei looked at the scene in the kitchen and couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He found that as a referee, he was actually more nervous than several contestants on the field.
"Are you ready? Then, the game begins!"
Following Hinata Junpei's order, there was a burst of crackling movement in the kitchen.
This movement lasted for a long time...
Anyone who has actually cooked knows that the preparation work of picking vegetables, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, etc. before cooking often takes several times more time than the actual start of cooking.
Everyone staying outside the kitchen just feels like their days are like a year.
I don't know how long it took.
Shutoku coach Hitoshi Nakatani and Masahiro coach Ikken Matsumoto walked in from the door. These two people were old teammates. Naturally, they had a lot to say about this unexpected encounter.
When they entered the door and saw the heavy and solemn atmosphere in the restaurant, they couldn't help but were stunned and said: "If you don't go to training, what are you doing here?"
Iwamura Tsutomu didn't recognize Matsumoto Ikken's voice, but still replied with a solemn expression: "We are waiting for the result of a game that can determine the life and death of everyone present."
Hitoshi Nakatani: "······"
Matsumoto Ikken: "······"
At this moment, there was only a bang, the kitchen door was suddenly pushed open, and then everyone saw Aida Reiko carrying a large casserole with insulated gloves and walking out with a confident face.
Everyone trembled and thought: "The moment of life and death has come."
Aida Reiko placed the casserole on the dining table and said with a smile: "Come on! Please try my specialty, assorted hot pot."
Lift the lid of the pot.
With a burst of white mist rising, a pot of assorted hot pot that looked quite appetizing slowly came into view.
This scene made everyone couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Huh? Doesn't it look pretty ordinary?" This is the voice of a Xiude player.
"I feel that the cooking skills of the female coach Cheng Rin are not as terrible as Cheng Rin said!" This is the voice of a Zhengbang player.
"It's over, everything is over." This is the voice of the players from Chenglin.
"Huh? So you are making food? You are so capable! Aida-kun, not only can you serve as Jorin's coach, but you can actually cook such good food, it is really amazing!"
Showtoku coach Hitoshi Nakatani touched his chin and exclaimed in admiration.
"Hehe~~Where is it!"
It was the first time in her life that she received such a compliment, and Reiko Aida actually felt a little embarrassed.
"Would I be honored to have a taste?"
"Of course, you're welcome."
Hearing Nakatani Hitoshi's sudden reckless remarks, Xiudoku's players immediately began to wink at him crazily, but they were still a step slower after all.
Because at this time, Reiko Aida had already handed over a pair of chopsticks.
Nakatani Hitoshi picked up a shiitake mushroom and put it into his mouth under the expectant look in Reiko Aida's eyes. The next second, Nakatani Hitoshi's pupils lost the light of life.
The taste is half-cooked, mixed with sweet and sour taste, salty enough to choke your throat, and bitterness that comes out of nowhere...
It can be said that in this bite, except for the smell that should not appear on mushrooms, Nakatani Renliang tasted nothing.
"How does it taste? Medieval coach!" Reiko Aida asked expectantly.
"······"
Nakatani Renliang did not respond immediately because at this time, his soul had not yet recovered from the outside.
Xiude's players have closed their eyes, silently mourning for their coach in their hearts.
Matsumoto Ikken finally noticed something was wrong. He didn't know Cheng Rin's female coach, but he had heard about Kitayama Yuzuki's cooking skills.
At this time, Matsumoto Ikken already had some vague premonitions of uneasiness, and this premonition became stronger with every passing second.
He trusts his intuition very much, because when he was still in the professional team, this kind of intuition helped Matsumoto Ikken defeat countless opponents.
So Matsumoto Ikken quietly moved his steps, planning to retreat first.
However, he was still a step too late after all.
Boom!
The kitchen door was pushed open again, and this time the person who walked out was none other than Kitayama Yuzuki.
Kitayama Yuzuki was holding a dinner plate in his hand, and what was placed inside was actually several plates of extremely exquisite-looking high-end sushi dishes. Seeing this scene, many Zhengbang players who were originally just panicked stood up on the spot, almost scared out of their wits.
.
If Kitayama Yuzuki had just brought out a plate of ordinary food, they wouldn't be so frightened.
After all, the taste of intermediate cuisine made by a junior chef may be very bad, but it is still acceptable. But the taste of high-end cuisine made by a chef who is not even a grade can be imagined.
Seeing the reactions of everyone in Zhengbang, Matsumoto Ikken became more and more certain that his uneasy premonition was correct.
Just when he was about to find an excuse to leave first, he suddenly heard Kitayama Yuyue said happily: "Oh, coach, you came back just in time, come and try my cooking!"
With an unusually bright and surprised smile on his face, Kitayama Yuzuki said to Matsumoto Ikken. Matsumoto Ikken's vision was slightly dazed.
This moment.
Ikken Matsumoto felt as if he had met his little daughter at home, who just celebrated her tenth birthday this year. The smile on her face was also so bright and cute.
Matsumoto Ikken could refuse anyone, but he would never refuse his daughter's request, so in a daze, Matsumoto Ikken sat down at the dining table...
