The third promotion assessment for ordinary students was held as scheduled, and the questions were as simple as ever. As long as you follow the steps taught by the [Central Food Agency], you can basically pass the level step by step. Erina Nagikiri, who waited for Hiroi and Endo, who were the main examiners, to comment on their dishes, directly ripped off the leather bands that tied the ponytail, and were about to leave but were stopped by the examiner.

"Oh, Erina-sama is really a great cook."

"It really deserves to be the pearl of the palm of the thistle commander, the daughter of the Nagi family. The craftsmanship is really exquisite. ”

Hiroi and Endo rubbed their hands together, and Tian shamelessly came up to set it on, hoping to wash away the negative image of himself in Erina Nagikiri's mind in the previous two scenes. It's a pity that she picked the wrong time, and Erina Nagikiri is now worried about the assessment results of her friends, so she has to deal with these two shameless guys

"Go away! Get out of the way!! Erina Nagikiri, who was in a hurry, had a gloomy face and didn't even need honorifics, and her fierce aura forced the two lecturers back. Glaring at them viciously, Erina Nagikiri didn't say any more, and rushed out of the examination room and ran wildly along the corridor of the hotel without any image.

The assessment of the rebels is also carried out simultaneously with ordinary students, which means that during this time period, Kohei Sojin and Ryo Hayama have already separated the winners and losers. What about other people who have been assigned to other test sites? And in the second round, has the duel between Jiang Yunfeng and Kobayashi Gentian already begun?

With these questions, Erina Nagikiri, who didn't even have time to change her clothes, rushed into the lounge non-stop, holding her knees with her hands and panting, and asked, "Kohei-kun... Outcome.. How is it... ”

"Yikes! Erina Nagikiri-sanagi, why do you look like this~" A gentle voice came into Erina Nagikiri's ears, and at the same time, a pair of warm hands helped her up. When he turned his head and saw that it was Shiomi Jun, he hurriedly said, "It turns out that Professor Shiomi is also there, and I was in a hurry when I entered the room just now and didn't notice it." I'm so sorry! ”

"It's okay~ Anyway, I'm short, and it's common not to be noticed by others, so don't care." Shiomi Jun smiled disapprovingly, laughed at himself by the way, turned back to Hayama Ryo who was sitting lazily and said, "Hayama-kun~ I didn't know how to take the initiative to pour a glass of warm water when I saw Miss Erina so tired." You're not a girl like this, how can you get a girlfriend in the future? ”

Facing Jun Shiomi, who entered the role of a mother, Ryo Hayama, who was preached, felt both sweet and distressed. "Yes, yes, Run~ I'll go prepare warm water right away." Reluctantly, I got up and went to the water dispenser to bring a cup of warm water from a paper cup.

"How many times have I said it!! When there are outsiders, call me Lecturer Shiomi or Professor Shiomi!! "Shiomi Run, who took the water cup, was angry, puffing up her bun face and looking 'I'm angry', but unfortunately Shiomi Jun didn't know that her expression was matched with her petite figure, which was simply cute.

Ye Shan Liang almost got a nosebleed, so he had to say perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, I know it's wrong~ Professor Shiomi." "There is pampering in my eyes.

"Very good, I'll forgive you this time, pay attention next time!" Seeing that Hayama Liang was soft, Shiomi Jun, who was satisfied, handed the paper cup and a towel to Erina Nagikiri, "Drink a glass of water first, and then tidy up your image, as a girl, it's really rude to want Erina's Miss to do this." ”

Erina Nagikiri glanced up at herself reflected in the dressing mirror in the room. His face was covered with the sweat from the run, the ruddy leaves of the intense exercise, and the beautiful blonde hair was also messy from the wind during the run. The pretty face of the country and the city turned even redder after brushing it, and he took the paper cup and towel and replied weakly, "Thank you." He stepped aside and began to clean up his image.

After all, she was born beautiful, and Erina Nagikiri returned to her former nobility with just a little touch, and asked proudly, "Since Kohei-kun is still standing here, it means that he won?" ”

"Of course! Two to one. Kohei Soma happily gestured to victory, "Obviously, the bear hamburger steak I made is more delicious." Finally washed away the shame since the trials, and it was really fun to get revenge~ hahaha. ”

"Yes, yes? Well done! Kohei-kun. It's not in vain that me and Scarlet Sand have tried our best to tutor everyone. After Ye Shanjun has learned this lesson, do you dare to follow the central food organ to do evil? But then again, with Hayama-kun's strength, he can completely protect Professor Shiomi's research institute through the halberd, but why did he choose to return to the Central Gastronomy Agency? ”

"Hmph~ Xingping, you are less proud, counting the score of the duel between me and you this time is just a tie." Ryo Hayama, who lost the duel but unveiled the knot in his heart, revealed his heart with relief, "The beginning of the matter happened on the night of the last day of the Yuanyue School Festival.,The project that has been negotiating cooperation has finally been responded.,The other party agreed to increase investment in the cooperation project of the Shiomi Research Institute.。 Originally, I thought that all this was on the right track, and I would just wait for the funds to be available to add new research equipment and start further exploration. ”

Speaking of this, Ye Shanliang raised his head and sighed, "Unexpectedly, a week has passed, and the funds promised by the investor have not been in place." I couldn't help but call to inquire only to learn that the other party was forced to terminate the cooperation with the Shiomi Research Institute under pressure, and also had to withdraw all funds and equipment. All research progress was stopped, and the required raw materials were not shipped because there was no money to pay the deposit. ”

Shiomi Jun's face was gloomy, and he couldn't help but feel a little bleak when he thought that his research results over the years had been in vain.

"Who is it?"

"Marshal Thistle." Ye Shanliang hesitated for a long time, and finally said the main messenger behind the scenes: "He used Yuanyue's huge capital and political and business network to exert tremendous pressure on the investors I cooperated. Forcing them to terminate their cooperation, withdraw funds and equipment. Then he used all the results reports and all the materials obtained through unremitting research under limited conditions as a bargaining chip to force me to help him do things and obey the orders of the central gastronomy organ. If I refuse, he will destroy all the materials in the institute and dismiss Run. I really don't have a choice! Sorry ~ Run! It's because I don't have the ability to protect the institute you hold dear most. ”

Shiomi Jun walked up to Ryo Hayama and gently patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "It's okay, it's all over~"

"It's as despicable as ever!" Kohei Chuangzhen gritted his teeth and said, "So, what is the first task that Marshal Ji gave you?" ”

Ye Shan Liang pointed directly at Kohei Chuangzhen and said, "Kill you in the third game of the promotion assessment." ”

"Now that you've failed, what's the punishment?"

Ye Shanliang looked out the door and smiled miserably: "It's here." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a handsome young man symbolically knocked on the door and walked in directly and said, "Sorry to disturb everyone." I'm the secretary of thistle-sama, Miss Erina, and the game of running away from home with your father should be over, right? Because of your childish behavior, all the scheduled tasting work was forced to be cancelled, do you know how hard it was for me to go around and apologize in a low voice? ”

Erina Nagikiri didn't respond, just stared coldly at the young man in front of him who claimed to be her father's secretary.

"Hey~~ Forget it, after all, you are the daughter of Lord Thistle, so it's hard to say anything in the future, so let's hurry up and get down to business." The young man turned his head and looked at Ye Shan Liang, "Ye Shan Liang, if you lose the duel, you should know what the consequences will be, right?" ”

Ye Shan Liang smiled slightly with relief: "Yes." ”

"That's a lot easier." The young man coughed, "According to the results of the duel just now, the punishment of the Central Gastronomy Agency for the losing side of Hayama Ryo is - withdrawal from school!" ”

"Alas!!"

"I also brought the results of other test centers, would you be interested in taking a look?" The young man turned on the TV in the lounge directly, and the screen happened to broadcast the results of the duel in other venues, and the rebels were all brutally strangled by the ten masters, and all of them were defeated without exception, and the result was the same as that of Ryo Hayama, and he was punished for dropping out of school!

"Alright, we're done. I'm going to continue to apologize for Miss Erina's childish behavior, so I won't bother you. Eri-san, I wish you were able to mature sooner. The young man didn't care at all about Erina Nagikiri's fierce eyes, shook his head and sighed to himself and left the room.

Kohei Chuangzhen said with a solemn face, "Now, we only have the last two people left who haven't taken the test." Only then did everyone remember, and they all got up and left to rest and rushed to the examination room.

。。。

"Hmm~~ delicious! Sister Tanasao, you're qualified!! After tasting the dishes of Kobayashi Gentian, he gave a thumbs up and praised it. It was extremely hasty to announce that Tian Sue had passed the assessment.

Nervous and trembling, Megumi Tanso was like being amnestied, and hurriedly bowed and thanked, "Thank you, Senior Sister Gentian." ”

"It's okay, it's okay! Sister Tiansuo, you are already qualified, you can go to the side to rest first. After Xiaolin Gentian smiled and said to Tian Suohui, he picked up the package on the table, held the handle and let it unfold, it turned out to be a leather knife box full of kitchen knives, and said to Jiang Yunfeng, who was sitting on the side with his eyes closed, "Then ~ It's up to you next, junior brother!" ”

Jiang Yunfeng slowly opened his eyes, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, "Senior Sister Gentian, don't be coquettish if you lose for a while." ”
