Zheng Ke entered the room, took a general look around Senzaemon's office, and found that behind the desk where Marshal Nagikiri often sits, it was empty.

"Here it is. Senzaemon's voice rang out from the depths of the room.

Zheng Ke took two steps forward and found Senzaemon sitting on the sofa and greeting Zheng Ke.

"Lord Marshal, are you looking for me?" Zheng Ke glanced across from Senzaemon and found Marcus sitting there sipping tea.

"Hmm. You come here first. Senzaemon waved his hand.

After seeing Marcus, Zheng Ke raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly remembered something in his heart, but he was still patient and walked over.

Senzaemon pointed to the sofa on one side and motioned for Zheng Ke to sit down.

Zheng Ke bowed slightly to Marcus, and then sat down on the sofa.

"How's it going?" Senzaemon narrowed his eyes and looked kind.

"Well, after a week of rest, my strength is almost recovered. Zheng Ke said truthfully.

Marcus cleared his throat, "Zheng Ke, let you come over this time......"

"Zheng Ke, please accept this. Senzaemon interrupted Marcus, picked up the note on the coffee table, and handed it to Zheng Ke.

Marcus was so angry that he couldn't say a word for a long time when he saw his words being interrupted. What made him even more depressed was that the corners of Senzaemon's eyes also showed a sly gaze.

Your turf, you're awesome.

Marcus rolled his eyes in frustration and swallowed the breath.

Zheng Ke didn't know why, took the note, his eyes were slightly surprised after scanning the note, this is a check for 10 million yen.

"Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief...... This is ......" Zheng Ke looked confused.

"You deserve it, please take it. Xianzaemon bowed slightly, facing Zheng Ke, "If it weren't for your help this time, we wouldn't have laughed at the end." ”

"But, if it weren't for Isshiki and them, I wouldn't be able to defeat Si Yingshi and them alone—" Zheng Ke put the check on the coffee table again.

"Others, I will be rewarded, but this one is yours. Senzaemon touched his gray beard.

Zheng Ke couldn't get rid of it, so he had to nod.

"Now it's time for me to speak, right?" Marcus looked at Senzaemon dissatisfied.

Senzaemon spread out his hands, "You feel free." ”

Marcus snuggled his mouth, but he still held back, reached out and took out an envelope from the document bag on the side, and handed it to Zheng Ke, "The time for the second-year promotion exam of Lanji Academy has been determined, and there is no transfer student exam in the higher department of Lanji, so you will take the promotion exam like other second-year students of Lanji." ”

Zheng Ke opened the envelope, took out the letterhead inside, and took a general look at the contents on it.

"The school invited Mr. Zheng Ke to participate in the second-year promotion examination, please attend on time. ”

Zheng Ke glanced at the time again, February 20.

"That...... Teacher Marcus ......" Zheng Ke scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "I don't seem to have said that I want to take the promotion exam, right?"

"Yes, but I've watched all of your games on Rebun Island, and now you're almost at the top of this school, and in the next year, if you're still here, your cooking skills are likely to stand still—you participated in the-blue, it should be clear that you're a group of talented chefs, Que Zhengqing, Catherine, Nakaei Hatata, and Anier...... In the next year...... No, it's the end of this year, and on the-blue, you may still meet Fu Xiuyun. If you don't keep improving, how can you fight them?"

Marcus pressed his hands on the table, and Zheng Ke tried to interject many times, but they all failed.

Finally waiting for Marcus to catch his breath, Zheng Ke hurriedly said, "Mr. Marcus, I haven't decided to participate in next year's the-blue?"

"Poof!"

Marcus, who had just drunk the tea into his stomach, squirted out the tea in one gulp after hearing Zheng Ke's words. Senzaemon, who was sitting opposite Marcus, didn't have time to dodge, and with his beard and clothes, he honestly caught the tea.

Senzaemon angrily pulled out a piece of paper, wiped his face, and glared at Marcus. Marcus was coughing incessantly, and it took more than ten seconds for him to recover. Seeing Senzaemon's dissatisfied face, Marcus also felt helpless, who would have thought that this stinky boy would say this.

"You stinky boy, the invitation quota is almost down, you tell me that you don't participate?" Marcus immediately diverted Senzaemon's attention and pointed the finger at Zheng Ke.

"Ahh

"The top four of the previous session will be eligible for invitation...... You kid, in December next year, go directly to Yangcheng to participate in the-blue's finals. Marcus tried to calm down.

Yangcheng? Sure enough, it's Huaxia......

Zheng Ke became interested, "Invite, there is such a good thing?"

"Of course. After all, you have a certain reputation in the international arena. Marcus said angrily.

Zheng Ke clasped his hands to his chest and nodded, "That's okay, you can consider it." ”

Marcus has a black line, this Zheng Ke is too realistic, right?

"Ahem, now you know how dangerous this year is, right? Que Zhengqing is holding back his strength and wants to kill you, Fu Xiuyun and Cheng Huaizhi also put you on the list, if you don't work hard, you will be killed by a few of them in minutes. Marcus persuaded.

"Yuanyue is okay, right? You don't have to go to Lanji. Zheng Ke asked.

"Far Moon...... Hmph......" Marcus snorted coldly, "I shouldn't be talking crazy in front of Commander Senzaemon, but I'm going to tell you one fact - Togetsu Gakuen is a very good food school, second to none in Japan, there's nothing to argue about that." However, I need to remind you that the two top cooking schools in the world, one is the Oriental Academy in China, and the other is the French Blue World. Compared with them, Yuanyue is still a little worse. ”

Zheng Ke listened to Marcus's words and fell into deep thought.

Marcus saw Zheng Ke's serious thinking, and laughed proudly twice in his heart. Boy, I don't believe you're disobedient.

Marcus picked up his teacup and took a gentle sip of tea. The fragrance of green tea lingers in his taste buds for a long time.

"That makes sense...... Since both schools are so good, why don't I go to Oriental School Park?" Zheng Ke looked curiously at Marcus who was drinking tea.

Marcus didn't expect Zheng Ke to say this suddenly, and the tea in his mouth spurted out again, all falling on Senzaemon's body.

"You must stay two meters away from me in the future. Senzaemon glared at Marcus angrily.

"Accident, absolute surprise. Marcus raised his hands and quickly explained, but his eyes were aimed at Zheng Ke with an innocent face, "I know what you're thinking, but I can tell you very responsibly that it's difficult for you to enter the Oriental School Park." ”
