CH.4 A Girl from France (Part I)
"You've been to Japan recently?"
The girl shook her head: "First time." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
"That's weird. Zheng Ke frowned, but he never remembered seeing her there, "By the way, my name is Zheng Ke, from ......"
"Huh, are you Zheng Ke?" the girl said in a lost voice.
"It should be, right?" was suddenly interrupted by the girl, Zheng Ke was also a little unsure of his identity, "You know me?"
The girl nodded first, and then quickly shook her head, "I haven't seen you, but my brother mentioned you to me, saying that your cooking skills are very good, although they are not as good as him." β
Huh?
Zheng Ke looked confused, he didn't know whether the girl's brother was praising him or himself. I always feel that this sentence does not sound so comfortable.
"It's an honor to hear your brother praise me like that. The muscles on Zheng Ke's face twitched slightly.
The girl nodded seriously, "I think so too." My brother rarely boasts. β
Zheng Ke couldn't wait to spit out a mouthful of old blood to the ground, but looking at the girl's sincere eyes, he felt that she didn't mean it.
"What's your brother's name?"
Since her brother knew him so well, he should know this person from the West, right?
"Absolon, do you know my brother?"
"Absolon?"
That's a familiar name, wait...... Isn't he the exchange student? But how does he know he's a good cook?
Zheng Ke looked at the girl in front of him in surprise, "I take the liberty of asking, your name is ......"
"Catherine Duran. The girl's teeth bit her lips lightly and lowered her head in embarrassment.
Sure enough, the girl in front of her is another exchange student, and she seems to be in group A with herself, which shouldn't be considered a narrow road, right? After all, in addition to the two of them, there are 28 people in the same group.
"I heard you're from the West?"
"A culinary school in France. Cather whispered.
"Then your Japanese is very good. Zheng Ke suddenly became French.
"I don't know, but I've been studying for three months...... Huh, do you know French?" Catherine was halfway through her words before she reflected and covered her mouth in surprise.
"A little bit. I thought you'd come after school started?"
"I want to, too. However, my school teacher told me that I had to win the championship, and although I didn't find it difficult, I still felt that I had to prepare carefully out of respect for the participants. β
When it came to cooking, Catherine's aura suddenly changed, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly revealed a contempt.
If it was an ignorant girl just now, then at this moment, Zheng Ke felt that Catherine's body revealed a fierce momentum, which was somewhat similar to Erina Nagikiri.
It's such an amazing person.
Zheng Ke knew that the reason why Catherine seemed to have suddenly changed was because she was sure that in the Far Moon Academy, there was absolutely no one who was her opponent.
But no matter what,This is also the Far Moon School Park.,If you can't even keep this champion.,It's estimated that Nagi Senzaemon will be angry to death, right?
"You seem to be quite confident. Zheng Ke asked tentatively.
"Well, cooking is what I do best. Aren't you afraid?" Catherine's eyes widened.
"Why be afraid, if you are not a tiger. Zheng Ke asked strangely.
"But I'm so good, you should be scared. β
"Even if you're better than all of us, there's no need for us to be afraid. Losing a game doesn't mean you won't have a chance to win in the future. Besides, I'm not the strongest among first-graders. There are many people who are better than me, such as Isshiki-kun. β
Since the competition in Polestar Liao, Zheng Ke has never fought with Yissehui, but he should have no opinion on such a "face-showing" thing when he hands it over to Yissehui, right?
"You said Isshiki-kun, we had a competition yesterday, but he lost. He's at a good level, but it's not as good as me. Catherine said very seriously.
Huh, you don't have to slap your face so quickly, do you? Oh, yes. Isshiki pursues a practical idea, and it is possible that she just wants to test Catherine's strength.
Zheng Ke can only convince himself like this,After all, the one color Hui in the comics is the seventh seat of the Ten Masters,If even he can't compare to Catherine,Then it's not impossible for Catherine to sweep the first grade of Yuanyue School Parkγ
Whatever, anyway, there are Ji no Kuni Ningning, Kuga Zhaoki, and Ruishan Zhizu...... No matter what, it's not his turn to defend the honor of the Far Moon Academy.
"By the way, that's a lot, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" Zheng Ke walked to the operating table.
"Do you want to compete?" Cather's eyes lit up and he looked eager to try.
Zheng Ke hurriedly shook his head, he was now a little afraid of the cooking competition.
But in every competition, there will be a victory or defeat. Of course, Zheng Ke hopes that he can win, but in this way, he will be very tired.
With Akane Kubotao's halberd, Zheng Ke rested for three days before relieving himself, but he competed with Shijie, after all, he gained knowledge.
And a tentative competition is meaningless, and many people don't show their real skills.
"Just make a casual two-course meal to eat. Zheng Ke rejected Catherine, "It's not time to compete yet, besides, we have time to compete in the future." β
Originally, Catherine was not interested, but when she heard the second half of what Zheng Ke said, she immediately came to her senses: "You mean, you also participate in the autumn trials?"
"yes. Zheng Ke rolled up his sleeves and picked up his apron, "So, let's not be in a hurry about the competition between us, if there is fate, we may meet in the autumn competition." β
"That's for the best. Catherine narrowed her eyes and clasped her hands to her chest, a pair of murder weapons about to come out.
Well, it's nice to be able to maintain such an innocent smile even when you've grown so big.
Zheng Ke sighed while opening the refrigerator and taking a look inside, there were no decent ingredients. After Mrs. Wenxu left, Isshihui probably didn't buy much food. I made two dishes with the leftover ingredients.
It wasn't until Zheng Ke put both dishes on the plate that he noticed that Catherine had been standing behind him.
"Is this Chinese cuisine?" Catherine asked curiously, looking at the two dishes on the counter.
"yes, two home-cooked dishes. Zheng Ke touched his heart, beating fast.
Can't this girl say a word in advance? Wearing white pajamas, standing behind without saying a word, it's really scary.
"What kind of dish is this?" Catherine didn't notice Zheng Ke's abnormality, and her attention was completely on the food.
"Stir-fried tofu with cabbage. β
"What about this one?"
"Shallot tofu toss. β
"Why is it all tofu?"
"There was only tofu left in the fridge. β
"Oops. Catherine suddenly covered her mouth.
"What's wrong?"
"I had two competitions with Isshiki-kun yesterday, and my brother had two competitions with Ichishiki-kun and ran out of ingredients. Catherine frowned, a look of self-reproach.
Zheng Ke blinked, silently distressing Yisehui in his heart for a second.
