It's been a month since Damu went to find Sweet and Fresh, and he said hello to Maha before.

said that he might not come to the back kitchen, and Maha didn't say anything after he knew it.

After Oki left, he came back for the first few days to clean up and wash.

Gradually, the interval got longer and longer, and this time it was more than twelve days since the last time I came back.

During this time, the business of Red was very good, and the newly invented flower rice became the top brand, and it was already necessary to ask someone to turn the door and go out to pick flowers.

However, Maha's side made a difficulty, because the time for Damu to come back was getting longer and longer, and the kitchen began to run out of spices.

There's really nothing to do, and the taste of the seasoning brought by the big wood will definitely be a lot worse.

Ma Qi entered the kitchen anxiously for the third time today and asked, "How many more dishes can you make?" ”

"Five more times, don't take orders again!" Maha spoke helplessly.

"But I have eighteen orders on hand! Where the hell has Ohki gone? Ma Qi said helplessly.

"Mom, find someone to fix the whole cabinet and restore the lock. Let's just say that Crimson is sick, so let's take a week off. Maha thought for it.

"Understood, is there anything else I need to do?" Maggie asked again.

"Investigate and see if anyone knows where Oki ended up." After Maha finished speaking, he looked at the board in a daze.

Ma Qi put down the list in hand, walked out of the kitchen, and stood in the hall and bowed to the old customers and new faces.

Everyone was at a loss and looked at Ma Qi: "Boss, what are you doing here?" ”

Ma Qi said helplessly: "Crimson has been sick recently, and she may have to rest for a week. If you haven't eaten the food today, the next time you come with my handwritten slip for free. I'm so embarrassed! ”

"Sick? This ......"

"Your body matters! Nothing can be done. ”

"Can you provide a general dish? Aren't Da Mu and your son Maha helping cooks? ”

Ma Qi reluctantly bowed again and sent the handwritten slip down: "I asked them to take care of Crimson, and now only snacks and beer are provided." ”

Ma Qi knows that he offends people like this, but now there is really no way to do it.

The guests who didn't eat left, and the guests who were eating left.

Only a few people who wanted to drink were left, but there really weren't many people.

Ma Qi finally became idle, beckoned the waitress beside him over, and whispered: "Let the sisters from the slums come and gather quickly, there is an urgent meeting to be held." ”

The waitress went to the slum through the red back door, and Ma Qi went to the kitchen, and without going in, she stood at the door and shouted, "Son, the business has been pushed down." I'll contact Da Mu here, don't worry. ”

"Got it, Mom!" Maha finished talking and continued to stare in front of the stove.

There are only two situations that will happen, either something happens to Da Mu, or Da Mu runs away.

And to verify these two conditions is very simple, and it couldn't be simpler.

Maha looked at the cabinet not far away, grabbed the kitchen knife, stepped forward and knocked it down.

Three times five divided by two, the whole cabinet was deformed.

The entire wooden door was opened, and seven helmets were neatly stacked inside.

The thing is still there, so it means that Oki is not running.

Since he didn't run, then something must have happened.

Maha wanted to close the cabinet, but found that the cabinet was smashed by himself and could not be closed at all.

Helplessly, Damu said that it was not allowed to move, so even if it was replaced with a new wooden door, it would be discovered.

Ma Ha thought about it for a while, anyway, the follow-up kitchen will be stopped for at least a week because of the red fake illness, if Da Mu comes back, it is better to say that Ma Qi renovated the kitchen, and he found that it was too late for his mother to smash open the cabinet, but he took it out and placed it separately as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Maha took out seven helmets that were stacked together.

What Maha didn't expect was that there were seven pamphlets at the bottom of the helmet.

Maha picked up a copy with only a yellow star on it.

Maha tried to open it and looked at it carefully.

The text on it Maha can't be understood, Maha is illiterate, and the difference must be Huang Xing's text, seven people and seven copies, obviously this should be something similar to battlefield notes.

Ma Ha took the helmet and notebook and planned to go home to study, so he went to the front desk and said to Ma Qi: "Mom, find me a teacher who understands Huangxing's characters." ”

After the red came out, the red hotel has made some money over the years, and it is not difficult to invite someone to come.

That night, I invited someone, an old teacher of calligraphy, who was from Red Star, and had been a friendship ambassador in Yellow Star when he was young.

Maha also made up a story for himself and said to the teacher: "Teacher, I asked you to come to ask for your help." You know, my mother, the one who paid you to come. But I don't know who my biological father is, but now I know one thing. There were seven soldiers with yellow stars, one of whom could have been my father. That's right, it's supposed to be a military log, right? Can you help translate it all and read it to me, money is not a problem. I just wanted to see if they mentioned my mother, or anything like that. ”

After listening to this, the teacher looked at Maha: "Do you have to read everything?" I'm very expensive. ”

"It's going to take you two hours every night, and when you're done. You just read it, and I record it with my brain. Maha said helplessly.

"That's too much, isn't it? The eyes will see the flowers. The teacher squinted and rolled his wrinkled eyes casually.

"Double!" Maha hurriedly spoke.

The teacher was stunned: "This ......"

"Triple as much!" Maha spoke again.

The teacher smiled happily and said, "I'm not in it for money, I really want to help you find your father." ”

Maha smiled, the red hotel did look like an upstart after being rich.

On the first day, the teacher cursolutly flipped through the pages and found two empty notebooks.

One only changed the date and repeated the content of the first day indefinitely, and the other book did not write again after writing the beginning.

Among them, the soldier who only wrote the beginning was called Damu, which made Maha a little disappointed, if there was anyone who was the easiest to tell the formula, it must be Oki's own notes.

But Maha still didn't give up, and he listened to all the books.

The teacher who took the money did not dare to slack off, and five days passed, and all five diaries with words were described without reservation.

After the teacher finished speaking, he handed the book back: "Five of the seven books have content, and they are all describing the same duty work, knowing each other, because they are all from the same corps, there are three old friends mentioned in the text, but the descriptions do not match your mother, sorry I didn't help you, I can only take half of this money, and the rest will be returned to you." ”

The teacher was obviously remorseful, but Maha shook his head: "What should be yours is yours, so I'll send you away, right?" ”

"Well, thank you." The teacher left the hotel satisfied.

Maha smiled, and indeed after listening to all five books, it seemed disorganized, and the five perspectives described the daily life of the guard.

But even with such meaningless content, Maha still found clues.

A team of seven people, one captain named Lalufa, and the remaining six are all team members. Among them is the military cook, as well as the Medic, Scout, Assault, Tactical Commander, Map Planner, and Gun Soldier.

This is the specific arrangement of Huang Xingyi's entire formation, among which the military chef Damu and the tactical commander do not like to record a diary the most.

Of the remaining five people, two were simply recorded, but three were very serious, namely the captain, the scout, and the medic.

It may be that the relationship between the three of them worked, and they all had their own talents for writing, among which the military doctor was a chatterbox.

And the last person the teacher said today was the military doctor, and this chatterbox military doctor also exposed what the secret recipe of the spice was.

One of the things that the teacher reads is that Oki borrowed some of the tools for grinding pills from the military doctor several times because the tools he had at hand were not good. They are stone mortars used to grind the leaves and roots of the medicine, and the two of them also had a conflict during this period.

The reason is that once after the food was eaten, the assaulter said that his stomach hurt, and then everyone had a stomachache, and after a long time of research, the military doctor suspected that Damu secretly used the stone mortar and did not report it, and when the military doctor gave Damu a stone mortar, he would clean it at least three times inside and out to ensure that the medicine would not remain. So this time I made the seasoning without washing, which is the reason for the stomach ache of the assault hand. But Damu retorted, and it was after that time that the two had a conflict. The resolution of the contradiction was that the captain applied for supplies and asked the military doctor to open an extra stone mortar and stone rod for Damu.

And in this content, the military doctor has a complaint written in his diary, that is, Da Mu obviously has a mortar, why do he use stones. Compared to those plants, the stone is more labor-saving.

This is the most important news I got after spending five days to hire a translation teacher! In the army, doctors and cooks were linked. The process of preparing the spice is very similar to the process of a doctor making pills. It's just that one is a stone mortar and the other is a wooden mortar. In order to save effort, Oki likes to borrow stone mortars to use.

At this point, Maha also has a research direction.

I ran to the kitchen at night, and laboriously hung a layer of spice residue the size of a little finger in the bottomed spice jar.

After carefully wrapping it, I waited until dawn the next day and ran to the clinics.

In the evening, Ma Qi reported the situation, saying that his people did not know where Damu was. No one had seen him, and the last one who saw him was half a month ago.

But Maha lost interest in Damu's affairs and went out to the clinic early in the morning.

The doctor in the clinic saw Maha coming to ask and asked, "Where are you not feeling well?" ”

Ma Ha said embarrassedly: "The old man in the family has incurable diseases, and the medicine prescribed by the barefoot doctor." If you want to eat it again, the other party can't find it. So can you help take a look? What kind of plant is this? ”

At first, the doctors all said, "Whoever prescribes the medicine will go to whom!" If I really want to cure the disease, the old man at home brought it, and I re-prescribed the medicine. ”

Seeing Maha take out a thick bag of gold dollars, he lowered his head with confidence, dipped his fingers in a little, sniffed it, and then said he didn't know.

All thirteen pharmacies and infirmaries were asked in one morning, almost the same rhetoric, almost the same money, but none of the doctors knew what it was.

In the afternoon, Maha changed the target and asked if there were any doctors with blue stars or yellow stars, and indeed found three or four, but they also said that they didn't know what the herbs in Maha's hands were.

Just when Maha was about to give up, thinking that this path might not work.

The last doctor tasted it and said with a slight wicked smile, "I have used this thing of yours, what kind of old man is it?" Next door to the black market, find someone named Kaku, he has what you want! ”

At the request of the other party, Maha went to the black market that he had never been to before.

The black market belongs to the Sanzhi Zone, which is located in a small alley in the downtown area.

Security officers never patrol around this place, and this whole black alley is full of strange illegal items for sale. It's all smuggled from other planets, and there's almost anything weird.

Maha went in with the money and asked along the way who Kaku was.

was finally caught in front of a thin man, the man is Kaku, although thin but the body is straight and strong, Maha's first reaction, the other party should also be the sequelae from the army.

Maha repeated the previous routine.

Maha glanced at it, and said without tasting it: "You have been deceived, this is chili powder, and it is not easy to use if it does not cure diseases!" If you're making up stories with me to treat your own stuff, I've got chili oil here! It works better, apply it to that thing, not too much a few times a night. ”

Maha watched as the other took out a jar containing a jar of red oil.

Try to dip your little finger in a little stuff and taste it, it is exactly the same as the seasoning made by Oki, and even after going from powder to oil, the taste is better.

Maha immediately took out a handful of gold dollars from his pocket, knowing that something would happen to him when he saw a lot of money on the black market. Secretly approached the man and stuffed the money under the other party's robe: "This money is for you, can you tell me what kind of plant this medicinal powder is?" ”

Kaku shook his head: "Powder? This thing can't be used in medicine, nothing can be cured, and it will backfire if you use it too much. ”

"Not medicine? So how did you find out about it? Maha asked again.

"I used to be a military cook with a yellow star, and then I broke a leg. If you can't get the Hero's Medal back, you will be laughed at again, so I secretly came to this place. This is a long red plant that dragon pepper, yellow star and red star have, and yellow star is sand, only this thing grows happily, and it is yellow. It's not that big the sun here, it's red. It has no medicinal properties, so the doctors don't know about it, only the cooks. For the sake of how much you give, I will quietly tell you that if this thing is used too much, it will be scrapped. Kaku sneered and opened his robe, revealing his half-broken legs.

For military chefs, seasoning is their life. But for another person who has given up his role as a chef and lost hope in the world, this is something that can be talked about casually. Not even for cooking, but for doing things that seem more useful.

This thing is not a medicine, it is a cure. That's the truth, Maha talked to this Kaku for a long time.

I finally understood what was going on, after the dragon pepper was dried, it was ground into powder, which was chili powder, and the chopped and animal fat were stirred over low heat to make chili oil. Conditional military cooks will bring chili oil to enhance the flavor, and only the border guards and guards who have not been supplied for a long time will dry and grind it into powder for easy carrying, and will use chili powder.

Everything was understood, and Maha picked up a whole bunch on his way home.

After drying, the ground is really chili powder.

I solved the biggest secret of the Yellow Star Military Kitchen, so what about the sweetness of the red star and the umami of the blue star on my side?

Knowing how Oki made the chili pepper seasoning, Maha felt that he was standing on the sixth step of the chef's life.

Maha and Da Mu have figured it out horizontally, and they are also standing at the same angle, because they know that there are many dragon peppers in Huangxing, so they use dragon peppers! So what is the most and most portable of Blue Star and its own Red Star?
