As the minutes ticked by, in the stands, with the exception of Takmi's cheerleaders, Polestar shooers, and Isami, most of the audience began to get drowsy or talk about other topics.

Zheng Ke looked at the cooking of the two people, and speculated what ingredients he would choose if he did this topic.

At this moment, the door of the lounge opened, and Erina Nagikiri walked in with her head down.

"Comforting the secretary?" asked Zheng Ke.

Erina rolled her eyes, she didn't understand why Zheng Ke kept calling Scarlet Shazi by the nickname, but she was exhausted now and didn't have the energy to ask him, she just sighed, "I didn't find it." ”

"Didn't find it?" Zheng Ke didn't expect this to be the result, scratching his head, "Didn't you look for her after the game?"

"I don't know. After the game, I went to look for her, but there was no one in the dressing room, so I called her and she didn't answer. Erina was dejected, her mind was a mess now, and she didn't have the slightest ability.

"Won't you be able to think about it?" Akane Kubo Momo suddenly came to her mind after listening quietly to the conversation between the two people.

"Not going back, right?" Erina's expression became nervous, and she turned around to leave the lounge.

"Don't listen to Senior Sister. Zheng Ke hurriedly stopped Erina, "Scarlet Shazi is obviously avoiding you now, where are you going to find her?"

"What are you hiding from me, what are you doing hiding from me?" said Erina, who also looked confused.

"Alas!" Zheng Ke scratched his head, thinking about how to explain to Erina, "You are the person she likes the most, and as a result, she lost the match in front of you, do you think ...... How is she going to face you? Now let her be quiet, right? If you are really not at ease, just call her parents to make sure she is safe. ”

"But didn't you just ask me to go to her?" Erina frowned, and her eyes were full of suspicion as she looked at Zheng Ke.

"How do I know she has such a strong self-esteem?" Zheng Ke rolled his eyes depressedly, he didn't have much contact with Scarlet Shazi, and he didn't know much about her character, but Erina should know this, why did she act so unfamiliar?

Erina didn't explain much, but took out her mobile phone and walked out of the lounge while making a call.

"I said, senior sister, don't say those unreliable words anymore, they will really scare people to death. Zheng Ke smiled bitterly.

"What am I saying that I don't say?" retorted Momo Akane.

Zheng Ke didn't know how to reason with Akane Kubotao, so he could only say "hehe" twice.

Angry, Akane Kubo Momo raised her foot and kicked Zheng Ke's calf. The unsuspecting Zheng Ke, under the sneak attack of Akane Kubomo, let out a miserable scream.

Erina pushed open the door again, looked at Zheng Ke, who was jumping on one leg with his legs in his arms, and asked suspiciously, "Did something happen?"

"No!" Akane Kubo quickly denied, "By the way, how is Scarlet Sand?"

"Whew, my aunt got in touch with her, and I went to send someone to pick her up immediately. Erinadi's face softened a little, and she said to Zheng Ke, "Thank you." ”

"Don't say that, I didn't really help. Zheng Ke said modestly.

Erina looked up and thought about it, and agreed with Zheng Ke's statement, "Also, you really didn't help much. ”

"......" Zheng Ke didn't know how to answer Erina.

……

Just then, something happened in the arena, and Takmi cooked the food.

"Judge, this is my dish, please use it slowly. Takmi put the dish in front of the judges and took a step back.

Nagi Senzaemon looked at the pastry in front of him, it was a three-tiered cake, the top layer was a layer of caramel covered with almond slices, the middle layer was a golden cream layer, and the bottom layer was a yellow cream cake.

This dish exudes the umami flavor of almonds, and the fresh cream is cold-processed and then semi-thawed at room temperature, making it look soft and delicious.

"What's the name of this dish?" asked Nagi Senzaemon.

"Snow Hidden Cake. Takmi replied softly.

"So, let's start tasting, shall we?" said Nagi Senzaemon to the judges on the left and right.

Miyagawa was the first to pick up the spoon, gently scoop down a bite of the cake, and savor it as if a strong sea breeze was blowing through him, and the smell of lemon wafted down from the tree and entered his nostrils.

This feeling is like meeting the most important person in a foreign country, and the fragrance surrounds him.

That fragrance is unforgettable.

"The refreshing sweet and sour taste of lemon spreads in the mouth and spreads along the tongue in all directions. After roasting, the almonds are crispy and fragrant, wafting back and forth between the mouth and the nose. The smooth cream, after touching the tip of the tongue, quickly spreads around, and the desire for youth in the body is also awakened. Miyagawa's cheeks were crimson, and the whole person seemed to be younger.

"Western-style desserts are very particular about the ingredients, and every bite of this dish is as if it has been carefully crafted, and it is hard to eat in your mouth. I've eaten snow cakes made by other pastry chefs, but this one is very different!"

"The caramel almonds on the first layer, the snow cake on the second layer, and the almond sponge cake on the third layer, each layer has a lot of almonds, but due to the different ingredients and methods, the taste of these almonds is very different when you eat them. Another judge explained.

"Senior Sister Tao, if it's you, how many points can you rate this dish?" Zheng Ke looked at Takmi's dish with considerable interest.

"Hmm...... I didn't eat it, how can I guess?" said Akane Kubo dissatisfied.

"This ...... Speculate a little. Zheng Ke scratched his head and said with a wry smile.

Momo Akane Kubo stared at the big screen, constantly estimating possible problems. It took about ten seconds for her to say, "70 points." ”

"Huh, so little?" Zheng Ke looked at Akane Kubo Momo in surprise.

"Well, first of all, this dish is not a particularly novel dish, although it may be slightly different from other snow cakes in terms of ingredients or production techniques, but it is still a snow cake, and it is impossible to have a subversive change in taste. Secondly, I just calculated the score according to the minimum standard. Seeing the evaluation of this dish by the five judges, it should be possible to add at least another 10 points or so. Akane Kubo said.

Ah, seeing that Megumi Tashiro wants to win this game...... It's still a lot of difficulty.

The only good news is that Takmi's cooking did not make the marshal Nagi appear to bloom, so Megumi Tando still has some hope.

At this moment, Megumi Tazo also put her dessert on the tray, took two deep breaths, picked up the tray, and walked towards the judges' seat.
