The night sky is deep, there are no stars, and there are no moon rings.

Salim sat in the hotel and kept refreshing the page.

The news about Qiao Zhi is very hot.

Qiao Zhi fell from upstairs, stumbled and fell into a vegetative state, lying in the intensive care ward, in danger.

A pleasant mood that flows in my heart.

The shame of the industry like Qiao Zhi should be so miserable.

None of them allowed him to die easily.

Becoming a vegetative person and lingering for a long time is the most relieving result.

Muller sent a message, "Did you see the news? Qiao Zhi was injured and turned into a vegetative state, and he was almost sure to withdraw from the game. ”

Salim quickly replied: "Even if he participates, he will only be defeated." Now our target is the other players in Huaxia, Wu Linfeng and Zhong Shi!"

Mueller replied: "In the anti-host alliance, someone has already made a detailed analysis of Wu and Zhong, and I will send the information to your mailbox." ”

"You're such a generous and nice man!" Salim replied gratefully.

Turning on his computer, Salim pulled up a folder containing Mueller's materials and photos.

For him, Müller is also an important opponent.

Salim's goal is to make it all the way to the final victory.

He is confident enough in his cooking.

In his eyes, Sandra and Megumi Kitaoka are the only opponents who can threaten him.

Now Sandra has withdrawn from the competition.

The remaining target is Megumi Kitaoka.

Now, though, there's another name, and that's Muller.

Mueller was the founder of the anti-host coalition and co-opted people into the unofficial organization.

The scariest thing about him is that he knows all the opponents very well.

As a result, Mueller's threat is second only to Megumi Kitaoka.

But for Salim, Mueller is just a tiny speck of dust.

This World Cuisine Exchange Conference is destined to be his own famous trip.

It is also a key battle for Indian cuisine to win the respect of the world.

Ahmed called Salim, "Would you like to find you a new Indian schoolgirl tonight?"

"No need!" Salim was disappointed in Ahmed.

I found out when I was chatting with a female student last night.

Ahmed went so far as to play a trick of middlemen to make the difference, deducting at least 40 percent of the fees.

So Salim decided to look for a new guide.

It's going to get Ahmad out of the pit thing.

Ahmed deliberately seduced, "The female student I introduced to you today is very good at dancing, or I'll send you a video!"

"I don't need to. I've got to play tomorrow, are you going to affect my form?" Salim said displeased.

"You said clearly yesterday that if you were happy the night before, you would be in better shape the next day. Ahmed was caught off guard by the scolding and said unexpectedly.

"You can shut up. Salim hung up Ahmed's phone directly.

If you can't find a suitable replacement, you must definitely block this guy immediately.

Thinking of the money earned by Ahmed, Salim felt another pang of heartache.

I can only comfort myself.

If you can win the World Culinary Exchange, you will be able to get a huge prize money.

I still have insomnia, and I didn't fall asleep until 3 o'clock in the morning.

Fortunately, the alarm clock was set, otherwise, I almost missed the opening ceremony the next day.

Salim came to the scene and received the meeting materials.

Sitting in his place, his gaze wandered everywhere and fell on Muller.

Mueller waved at Salim, who smiled in return.

There are many participants this time, and it is divided into two stages: the knockout round and the finals.

There are two rounds of knockouts, and eight people are selected in the form of catch-and-match trials.

Eight people directly advanced to the finals and competed together.

The scores of the two rounds of elimination, as the base score, are rolled into the finals, so the playoffs are just as important.

Finally came to the draw, and from time to time someone came to the stage to take out their numbers.

Salim drew the number "12A", which means that he will play a decisive match with 12B.

There were a lot of people on the scene, and he didn't know who his opponent was.

The data was entered into a spreadsheet and soon a matching table was obtained.

Salim quickly found his name.

The opponent turned out to be Qiao Zhi!

How could it be so coincidental!

I'm so lucky!

Qiao Zhi was not seen at the scene, and it was rumored outside that Qiao Zhi had become a vegetative person.

Doesn't that mean that you have a bye and enter the next round of elimination?

Mueller walked up to Salim's side and said enviously, "You are really lucky! ”

Salim shrugged helplessly, "The feeling of not having an opponent is not so good." I'm actually more like having a strong opponent, I'm a slow player. Put a little pressure on yourself in the knockout rounds so you can be at your best in the final. ”

"You're really a person to pursue. ”

Mr. Mueller pressed Mr. Salim's shoulder like an old friend he knew.

But in my heart, I was thinking.

This is really a hypocritical guy.

I was so happy that I wanted to jump, but I could still pretend to be a pity.

The first round of knockout matches started in different arenas one after another, and Mei Ling helped Qiao Zhi draw India's Salim.

From the information it shows, this is not a particularly formidable opponent.

It's just that why hasn't Qiao Zhi come yet?

You can draw lots for him, but you can't play for him in the game, right?

Because of the restrictions on the field, the first thing is to eliminate between 1-10.

Wu Linfeng's number is 5A, and his opponent is a player from Thailand.

The question drawn by the two is a fish competition.

Wu Linfeng responded with boiling fish fillets.

Lemonfish who easily defeated the Thai player.

All of a sudden, it became one of the biggest hits of the exchange meeting.

Megumi Kitaoka is 7B, and her opponent is a Norwegian chef.

The topic of the draw was vegetable salad.

Megumi Kitaoka won by a large margin.

The questions in the knockout round may seem simple, but the questions are different.

It not only tests the overall strength of each person, but also has an element of luck.

The first round of the knockout round of the first batch of players has finally ended.

However, Qiao Zhi has not yet appeared.

There were still ten minutes before entering the venue, and Mei Ling had to call Qiao Zhi to urge him.

Qiao Zhi answered the phone, and there was a traffic jam just now. I'm in the parking lot now, I'm looking for a space, I'll be there later. ”

Mei Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

......

Salim enters the competition area.

As expected, Qiao Zhi still hadn't appeared yet.

He was secretly smug in his heart.

"May I ask the judges, if my opponent is unable to participate in the allotted time, will he automatically abstain?" Salim said with a smile.

"Fifteen minutes into the game, if you don't show up, you will automatically forfeit, that's the rule set by the exchange. The chief judge from Romania said lightly.

Salim shrugged.

was about to tell the chief judge that Qiao Zhi would definitely not be able to come today.

A figure appeared in the doorway.

His eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost.

Are you dazzled?

Isn't it going viral outside, is Qiao Zhi already in a vegetative state?

How did he show up?

Is it a stand-in?

"I'm sorry I'm late. Qiao Zhi took the initiative to apologize to the judges.

The Romanian judge looked through his watch, "There are still two minutes before the official competition starts." You're not late, please stand in your seat, I'll announce the exam later. ”

Qiao Zhi stood in front of the stove and glanced at Salim, who was in a state of despair.

I secretly wonder why this Indian is sweating!

Qiao Zhi smiled at Salim, "It's an honor to compete with you!"

Salim sneezed, "Honored ......"

He tried to keep his mind in check.

Why panic?

Even if Qiao Zhi appeared, it was not that he had not tasted his craftsmanship.

Definitely not their own opponent.

Even if he didn't become a vegetative person, he didn't have a bye to advance.

The lottery is also the best choice.

"It's not an honor at all. Playing with you is a complete humiliation to me. A chef with a very bad character like you is a disgrace to the industry. Salim came back to his senses and said coldly.

"The smell of gunpowder is very strong!"

Qiao Zhi sighed secretly, and his expression became serious.

How strong is Salim.

I analyzed him myself.

This guy is not surprised and stops at the knockout round.

If you want to defeat him, you only need to spend nine successes.

Mei Ling's luck is good.

However, Salim's provocation is really unpleasant.

The Romanian jury announced the title.

"Cook a chicken-related dish within 45 minutes, based on the ingredients on site. ”

Salim's pupils dilated, God really helped him.

India is an interesting national capital.

They list chicken as vegetarian.

The people of the upper castes are all Buddhists, and they believe that meat is not impure and that eating meat will defile the human body, so the people of the higher castes do not eat meat.

In order to maintain the dignity of his own high caste, then say that chicken is vegetarian.

So, hello, hello, everyone's kidneys are good, and all Indians can eat chicken with peace of mind.

For Indian chefs, there are also many ways to handle chicken.

If you switch to beef or pork, basically Salim will have quite a headache.

Although he also cooks deliciously, there is definitely no chicken that is good at.

Salim chose to cook "Tanduri Chicken".

Pick a fat tender chicken, remove two legs, coat them with a special condiment, and bake them over a hardwood fire to allow the spices to penetrate the meat.

The chicken is so delicious that it is said to be authentic in restaurants only in India.

Salim was within the rules and took out the spices he was carrying.

As soon as the chicken enters the oven, there is a mouthful of mouth-watering aroma.

Qiao Zhi glanced at Salim in surprise.

It's a little stronger than the intelligence in it.

Qiao Zhi began to prepare his own work.

Choose a whole piece of chicken and massage the chicken.

The expression is solemn.

It's like doing something particularly solemn and solemn.

The three judges looked at each other.

From each other's eyes, they were all holding back a smile.

Waiting for the chicken to come out of the oven, Salim saw Qiao Zhi's "funny" behavior.

I was reassured.

As expected.

He's just an opportunistic, grandstanding guy.
