The brown-haired, somewhat elegant, bookish young captain named Michelle de Kent is currently the chief staff member of the Equipment Logistics Department of the Military Command Headquarters, and is said to be the head of a certain coordination team by next year. Or, they will leave the Earth headquarters and go to a large military region to work as the head of logistics.

With enthusiastic red hair and a natural human spirit, he is naturally the famous Captain Horatio Wayne, who is currently serving in the Community's First Space Fleet, commonly known as the "Solar System Fleet" or "Home Fleet". Obviously he has only graduated for half a year, and now he is the second officer of the destroyer Marseille 122. It is said that in the second half of the year, it will be on the flagship of the Solar System Fleet, the dreadnought "Independence", and become a member of the fleet command.

No matter from which point of view, these two young people who graduated from military schools do have a bright future.

However, they do pale in comparison to someone who almost made the personnel organization a laughing stock. At least, when I just graduated more than half a year ago, the gap between the two sides was only one level, but now it has widened to two levels.

Horatio Vane looked at the triumphant Yu Lian and gritted his teeth for a few seconds. However, it can be seen that the official career as an officer has indeed made him grow a lot, and he quickly adjusted his state, took a deep breath, and gave a neat military salute.

"Hats off, sir. Since the farewell of the academy, seeing that your demeanor is still the same, no, more energetic than when you were in the academy, Xia Guan is really admired. ”

Wayne's progress has been great. No, it's only seven or eight months, and even the scene can be said, and it can also carry a little irony hidden in the needle.

"Really, are you a child? Everyone is a classmate, what is the point of being so polite? Brother Horatio, I don't remember teaching you to be such a philistine! Can society change a person so much? ”

So, Vane began to grit his teeth again. After all, he is a stupid son born in a pure-hearted big family, and no matter how fast he progresses, there is really no comparison with a certain old fritter.

"Don't say anything about either of you, you're eight years old at most." Kent said on the sidelines.

"You don't understand this, Mihir, men are teenagers until they die, and they only show their true side in front of their good friends. Whether we are eight or eighty years old, on the one hand, it shows that we still have a child's heart, and on the other hand, it is also because I am in love with Brother Wayne! ”

"Who, who wants to be in love with you! I'd rather go to another battle with the Empire. ”

"You see, if I'm eight years old, this guy will be three years old at most."

Horatio Vane suddenly found that if he fought a lawsuit, he would not be able to be this guy's opponent anyway, so he decided to shut up, just sneered, and directly pulled out the chair, and sat opposite Yu Lian with a golden knife.

"I'm here to eat, and it's a shame to be so angry with you." He sneered.

Well, Wayne-san is indeed growing up fast! They all learn to retreat as advance.

Kent also sat down next to him and enthusiastically introduced: "The headquarters canteen has always been very good, there are three or four set meals to choose from every day, and Eastern and Western cuisines are included. Of course, it's okay to order an order, but it costs a little more money, but it's also much cheaper than the restaurants outside. ”

But it's not that in this officer's cafeteria affiliated with the Military Command Headquarters, it is not expensive to eat a set meal, but you need to pay separately to order food, which is why Yu Lian ordered one from A to D.

"And it's always tasted good." Kent added.

As mentioned earlier, the Kent family, where Mihir was born, is also a well-known top wealthy family, and the family industry is not only the shipyard industry and the shipping industry, but also a large chain of hotels and restaurants. In fact, the Kent family only has equity and a high voice in the Brooklyn shipyard and the solar system shipping group, but it is not to the point of saying a word, but in the Starlight Hotel Group, which has more than 12,000 hotels and star-rated restaurants in the whole galaxy, it has an imperial status.

All in all, as the young master of a hotel giant, Mihir Kent should be accustomed to seeing the best chefs and the best dishes in the whole galaxy. If he thinks it's delicious, it must be delicious.

Soon, the A set was delivered, which was a very oriental-style big-name beef ramen with fried dumplings and side dishes.

"Oh, it's ramen! Mr. Ramsay is the best at this set of dishes. ”

is really worthy of the young master of the hotel giant, and he hooked up with a chef with military rank and establishment so quickly? Is this a way to dig into the corners of the public's house?

Hearing Yu Lian say this, Kent frankly admitted: "I do have this plan, but not for my family's company, but for our Youth Friends Club." ”

Yu Lian was slightly stunned, and then realized that he seemed to have formed a youth organization group with these people, and at the same time, he seemed to be the president of this group.

"Heh, of course, you're just busy provoking the Empire in the Far Shore Star Zone. I'm afraid I've forgotten about our Lionheart Society a long time ago, right? Just give me the president as soon as possible. Vane sneered

"It's called the Youth Club, thank you! That's a bit of a vanguard. What is the Lionheart Society, it sounds like a secret society of the second generation of a group of powerful families, a group of embryocidal neurosis. ”

Vane thought to herself that I had such a violent temper, but it was really difficult to do it in public.

"And I didn't tell you that our Youth League is still in the early stages of its creation, and in the absence of a comprehensive organizational program, it is indeed not suitable for immediate expansion. The first batch of core personnel must be observed. A mature and idealistic social organization must erect discipline in the early days of its establishment. Also, it's not like I haven't done anything, Eleanor-san has agreed to join. I found a few of our peers in the Red Maple Factory, and although they weren't glamorous-sounding 'moon people' like us, they confirmed that they would be fellow travelers. ”

"Oh, I thought you were only going to expand our organization in the military." Kent laughed.

"Isn't that really Showa...... Ahh Everyone has the ideal of saving the country, but they don't want to establish a military government, right? ”

Vane, who was the most military in the audience, immediately agreed: "The Lionheart Society should not be an illegal organization that the soldiers secretly collude. Although I have developed those who are bold among the younger brothers and sisters into our reserve members, all those who have the heart of a lion should be our comrades-in-arms. ”

You're just going to be unable to get along with this secondary disease name, right?

"That's why I'm talking to Ramsay. Even if we don't meet today, Vane and I are ready to go to you tomorrow. ”

Yu Lian nodded, "sighing" a mouthful. If the courage and leadership of the Lionheart Society is Venn, and the head is Hachiman, the reliable responsibility must be Kent. If he said that, he must have had a good reason.

Kent looked at Yu Lian's bold eating appearance, and suddenly felt hungry, so he said, "I also want a set A." We can talk while eating. ”

After the two finished ordering, Kent went on to explain: "Mr. Ramsay is a recent graduate of the Culinary Academy and is now a part-time teacher there. You've heard the name, right? ”

Yu Lian blinked his eyes, making sure that he hadn't heard of it, but he inexplicably felt a desire to complain.

"Then I guess you'll hear about it soon. This academy is a famous academy established after the Imperial Model Academy, specializing in training top chefs. It's just that their graduates have to serve top hotels and wealthy families, and the people don't have much reputation. It's really hard to hear of people who don't work in this line. ”

Yu Lian nodded and began to eat dumplings. He still didn't understand why Kent was saying this to himself.

"As for that academy, in order to ensure its reputation in high society, it adopted various elimination systems. The last few students in the mid-term final exams will be expelled, they will be expelled if they make mistakes in school activities, they will be expelled if they do not meet the requirements of teachers in class, and they will even be expelled if they lose a cooking competition between students. In any case, the graduation rate is less than 30 percent every year. ”

"This is not education, but Gu cultivation." Yu Lian couldn't help but say. In a wide entry, strict exit college, it should not be this kind of graduation rate either.

Of course, this may also be the fact that the upper class does not need so many so-called "elite" chefs.

"Recently, the concept of the college is that only the elite who are one in a million are qualified to become their graduates and be qualified to serve the so-called high society. In that academy, the students were accustomed to using the highest grade ingredients, learning exquisite and excessive cooking methods, and even if they were eliminated, they found that they could hardly cook home-cooked food, and they could not even adapt to going to a family roadside restaurant, so they had to start from scratch. Kent laughed.

"Well, then the tuition fee is a water ticket, right? There are really people going to this kind of brain-dead academy! ”

"However, there are indeed a lot of people who go, after all, as long as you get out, you can get a high salary. We've got several of our hotel's executive chefs from where they graduated. ”

Yu Lian pursed his lips and began to scoop up the dried vegetables and bamboo shoots in the noodle soup.

The taste of this ramen is not at all high-end like that of a star restaurant, it is bland, delicious and warm.

"However, you're right, this is not education, it's Gu cultivation. So, last year, when Mr. Ramsay joined the school as a part-time teacher, he joined forces with the students, as well as the teachers, who had long been very dissatisfied with the system, and drove out the former school authorities. ”

"How to rush? It can't be a cooking competition, right? Relying on the strength and honor of the cook, let the other party be ashamed of himself and bow down? Yu Lian smiled.

"No, it was a boycott that closed the school, occupied the school building, demanded a refund of the tuition and mental damage fees of the students who were unjustifiably expelled, and confronted the police invited by the school for nearly half a year. During this period, they were cut off from water and electricity, and they were cut off from supplies, so they grew vegetables on the college's hydroponic farm, used modified machines to generate electricity, and organized themselves to continue their studies. ”

Yu Lian suddenly felt that he was not sleepy.

"Now, the purpose of the academy has been achieved, to be a chef who makes everyone feel happy!"

Yu Lian looked at the rich milky white soup in the bowl of the sea, and his interest became even stronger.

"Is this the so-called revolution you are talking about?" Kent laughed.

"You understand so quickly!" Yu Lian sighed with emotion, feeling that the road ahead was quite happy.

Just as Kent was about to answer, he saw a service robot already coming over with another plate.

“…… Horatio, this is what you ordered? ”

Horatio just shook his head, but heard that Yu Lian had already drunk all the ramen soup "grunt", and then said, "What a happy soup." Oh, that's my ...... too."

Although Yu Lian is not a professional gourmet, after all, he has also had a moment when he eats without any worries, enjoying the food to heal his body and mind, and he does have some ideas about taste.

The taste of the ramen is almost perfect, whether it is soup or noodles, meat or vegetables. The carefully rouge-soaked pieces of meat appear in the ocean of soup like a huge iceberg. With a flick of the chopsticks, the noodles moistened by the soup are like the ancient city of Atlantis that has been hidden in the sea for tens of thousands of years, and each gluten has recorded the vicissitudes of history.

When I put them in my mouth together, it was like the nature and civilization of this planet crumbling on the tip of my tongue. However, this is not destruction, but my merger with everything on this planet. What a blissful collapse!

"Ahh My stomach, what does it want next? Yu Liandao.

Kent and Vane looked at each other and couldn't help but move their chairs away a little.

Then, under the breathtaking witness of these two people, Yu Lian finished the rice and stewed chicken soup of the B set, and the bread and butter baked snails of the C set. When he started to eat the Mediterranean-style seafood fried rice of Set D, even the non-commissioned officer who was in charge of the restaurant before showed a shocked expression, and then came over to apologize.

"Why apologize?" Yu Lian didn't understand too much.

"I just saw that you ordered four set menus, and I think you're another pompous chief. I've seen too many people like this during this time. But after all, I work in the kitchen, and I really can't see people wasting food. That's why I said bad things about you in my heart. "The service sergeant said.

This is a corporal of the same age as Yu Lian, but in the face of the three officers with a compelling aura, although he is a little nervous, he behaves very frankly.

"But if you don't come and apologize, won't we know? But if you come here to apologize now, maybe you'll offend us. ”

"If you're really the kind of officer who wastes food with pomp and circumstance, I certainly won't let you know. However, you are not, but a gentleman who has the utmost respect for food. Even if you dislike me for this, you have to apologize. The corporal was obviously also a smart man, and knew that Yu Lian was joking with himself.

After all, he was still a young man in his early twenties, and seeing that these officers were peers and seemed to be quite approachable, he said a few more words: "The set menu in the officers' cafeteria is free, and in the final analysis, it is the people's preferential treatment for the soldiers who defend the homeland and the country. However, if the soldiers forget this and squander this preferential treatment, in the long run, they may lose the support of the people...... I'm sorry! This, sir, I'm really not teaching people, just, it's ......"

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be too carried away.

Yu Lian was already interested, and glanced at Kent and Wayne: "You are Mr. Ramsay, the chef here?" ”

"Genus, the subordinate is Aldini, the assistant to the sergeant major...... Uh, sir, slow down! The corporal remembered that he still had a job, or that he was embarrassed, so he quickly saluted and fled.

Yu Lian looked at the back of the little non-commissioned officer, and glanced at Kent again: "Seriously, Mihir, you do understand too thoroughly. ”

"Yes, even a few pamphlets, I really see me like a fish in my throat, like a man's back, like sitting on pins and needles!" Kent shrugged his shoulders: "According to your theory, don't Vane and I have to become the opposite of history?" ”
