The next morning, Zheng Ke got up early, and after washing up, he saw Catherine and Absolon also walking out of their respective rooms. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"You woke up so early. Absolon's eyes narrowed.

"I didn't ...... Just a little excited. After all, I'm going to see a master swordsmith in a while. Zheng Ke chuckled twice.

I thought it was a very casual conversation, but after hearing Zheng Ke's words, Absolon suddenly hugged Zheng Ke, which made Zheng Ke a little overwhelmed.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Zheng Ke wanted to push Absolon away, but saw that Absolon was still in tears.

"I didn't expect you to think the same way, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep. Absolon said.

Yes?

Zheng Ke looked at Catherine with a wry smile, "What's going on?"

Catherine pouted, "What else could it be?" He went with me to find Master Hirata, but Master Hirata was very dissatisfied with his food, so he didn't give him a custom kitchen knife. That's why it's left a shadow, right?"

And what's going on?

Zheng Ke looked at Absolon who wiped away his tears in amazement, and thought silently in his heart, it turned out to be empathetic...... I'm going to ask Chef Hirata to make me a kitchen knife, which is different from him......

The three of them cleaned up neatly, Zheng Ke also put the ingredients to be used in the crisper box, just in case, and then followed Catherine out of the dormitory.

"By the way, don't you need to hold a kitchen knife?" Zheng Ke suddenly remembered this question.

"No, no matter what Master Ping Tian says, he is also an expert in knife casting, so he will deliberately prepare a few kitchen knives for others to try. Although it is a kitchen knife to try out, the quality is definitely better than that of many famous manufacturers. Absolon dispelled Zheng Ke's scruples.

I see.

Zheng Ke suddenly realized.

The three of them went downstairs and saw a black sedan quietly parked in the open space in front of the building. At this moment, the driver's door immediately opened, and an old man in his sixties dressed as a housekeeper stepped out of the car.

Seeing three people approaching, the butler turned to the side and bowed slightly.

"Young Master, Miss, hello, Mr. Zheng Ke, hello. ”

"You know me?" asked Zheng Ke in surprise.

"Anyone who comes into contact with the young lady and the young master, I will do some research. The butler didn't make any excuses, and said directly.

Zheng Ke smiled awkwardly and looked at Absolon a little helplessly.

Although emotionally speaking, it is a little difficult to accept, but the old butler is also for the safety of Catherine and Absolon, so Zheng Ke can also understand his motives for doing this.

Absolon rolled his eyes helplessly - it would be good for you to tell even two lies, old butler.

"Okay, Grandpa Basheut, Zheng Ke, let's get in the car quickly, shall we?"

Of the three, Catherine was the calmest, urging them to get into the car, and then ordered Basheut to drive towards Hirata's mansion.

The residence of the Pingtian house was even more remote, in the corner of the suburbs of Paris, and just when Zheng Ke thought he was about to drive out of Paris, the car turned and entered a relatively remote road.

After two turns and three turns, the car finally stopped in front of a courtyard.

It is a typical Japanese-style building, and the house is made of wood and bamboo, but at the back of the courtyard, there seems to be a row of stone houses, which should be where the other party forged knives.

"Grandpa Basheut, our trip may take a long time, so will you come with us?" Catherine said to Basheut in the cab after getting out of the car.

Basheut nodded slightly, parked the car in the parking space, and hurried over again.

By this time, Catherine had knocked on the door and told the servants of the Hirata family what she had come to.

"Please wait a minute, I'll go and ask the master. ”

After dropping these words, the servant closed the door and hurried away.

Zheng Ke casually glanced around, and finally his eyes fell on the parking space. In addition to the black sedan driven by Bashutt, there was also a red sports car parked next to it.

"Someone coming?" Zheng Ke's eyebrows tweaked, slightly surprised.

"A lot of three-star chefs like to use Chef Hirata's kitchen knives. Therefore, the owner of this car is likely to be a three-star chef. Catherine explained.

"I don't think so. Absolon shook his finger and retorted to Catherine in a very rare way, "In my guess, the owner of this car is no more than thirty years old, so it can't be a three-star chef." ”

"Why?" asked Catherine, confused.

"In my memory, it seems that no one has ever gotten three stars before the age of thirty. Absolon looked extremely serious.

Catherine pursed her lips and looked at Absolon dissatisfied, "I'm asking you, how do you know he's less than 30 years old?"

Zheng Ke also nodded again and again, he also wanted to know the reason.

"Because people over 30 years old rarely choose a sports car with such a beautiful color. Absolon said confidently.

"But there are a lot of red sports cars, right? And they don't have to be driven by people under the age of 30. Zheng Ke retorted.

Absolon was instantly petrified.

Fortunately, the door opened in time allowed Absolon to get rid of his embarrassment.

"Four, please follow me. The maid took the lead in leading the way, and Catherine led Zheng Ke and the three of them to follow behind.

From the outside, the courtyard is not too big, but when Zheng Ke entered the courtyard, he found that the traditional structure of the Japanese courtyard, such as a small pond, green bamboo or a deer, has everything.

After a few turns, the servant led the four to a larger room, and then quietly retreated.

Because the room was dark, Zheng Ke stood outside, and could only see an old man in his sixties talking to another person in the room, but he couldn't see what that person looked like.

"Grandpa Hirata, I'm here. Catherine bowed slightly.

Hirata Nozomi has a gray beard and a flat head. Although he is old, he still looks very energetic.

"Teacher, do you still have guests?"

The person sitting across from Hirata Wang actually spoke in Japanese, which surprised Zheng Ke a little.

"Well, the granddaughter of an old friend. Hirata Wang narrowed his eyes and looked at Catherine, "Hehe, I didn't expect you to still think about me? The quality should be fine, right?"

"Yes, after all, it's a kitchen knife that you personally supervised, and I'm also very handy at using it. Catherine replied unconventionally.

"If you like it...... Then you won't let me make a kitchen knife for your brother this time, right? No, no, no, I don't see any potential for his knife work. It's a waste for me to make a knife for him, so you can let him buy a random one, right? It's really not good, you can order one from Japan or Germany. This should not bother you. ”

When Absolon heard this, his nose was almost crooked, what does it mean to just buy a handful?

"Grandpa, I'm not telling you about him, it's a friend from Asia. Catherine quickly explained.

"From Asia?" Hirata Wang moved his gaze to Zheng Ke's body, and the smile on his face instantly turned cold, "Catherine, you don't think that I am selling kitchen knives, right?"
