Chapter 101: Playing with Fire and Self-Immolation?
Dojima Silver took Li Xiang to the corner of the corridor outside the cooking room, and as soon as he stood still, he asked:
"Emiya, explain in advance, the first question I'm going to ask is a personal question of mine, and if you don't want to answer, you can leave it unanswered."
"It's okay, Chef Dojima, just ask."
"You're not even sixteen years old today, and you've learned the heart of cooking, do you have any unique skills or experience or anything like that?"
Li Xiang waved his hand powerlessly: "Chef Doshima, you must also know that the realm of kitchen heart can only be understood but not spoken. Everyone's life perception is different, and the way of expression of the kitchen heart is also different, where there will be any skills, the reason why I can understand the kitchen heart, can only say that my luck is not bad. ”
Li Xiang paused, and his voice and face became a little low:
"If there is any experience that can be summed up, it may be to seriously understand your own life. I grew up in a lot of displacement, and it wasn't until half a year ago that my life settled down. It is precisely because I have never had it that I cherish the stability and warmth of home even more, and because I attach importance to it, the kitchen heart that I understand also has the attribute of loving home. ”
"Regarding your affairs, the commander-in-chief once talked to me about a little, and it is not easy for you."
Dojima Silver patted Li Xiang's shoulder as an elder to express comfort.
"Well, there's one more thing I'm calling you out. In fact, by this afternoon, when the project you just completed is over, all the projects of this year's Yuanyue Summer Accommodation will be over. ”
"As a reward for your hard work this week, tonight, we teachers will take it upon ourselves to cook you a sumptuous dinner. I've just tasted your cooking, and I think you're on a par with the graduates of Togetsu. So, I'd like to invite you to be one of the chefs for tonight's dinner and cook a dish for your classmates. ”
Dojima Gin's invitation caught Li Xiang off guard.
After a few seconds of brain emptying, Li Xiang's brainwaves reconnected, and after a few seconds of analysis, he came to a conclusion:
"Chef Dojima, I accepted your invitation, what should I do in the future?"
Dojima Silver asked Li Xiang to wait in place for a while, and then he walked aside and made a phone call, and after hanging up the phone, he said to Li Xiang:
"I have already informed Guan Shouping, and he will arrange for someone to come here to find you and take you to the back kitchen of the Far Moon Hotel, if you have any questions in this regard, you can come to him. I also have the task of reviewing the students' cooking, so I missed it first. ”
Lee wanted to say goodbye to Dojima Gin, but he didn't notice that Dojima made another phone call after leaving his sight.
As soon as the phone was connected, Dojima Silver said into the receiver, "Commander-in-chief, I have already asked Emiya to join tonight's chef team as you said." ”
On the other end of the phone, it was the voice of the old man of the commander of the far moon, Nagi Kiri Senzaemon:
"yes, I see. It will also be very helpful for Emiya to talk to the graduates before Tozuki and make his own dishes under the pressure of his seniors. ”
"Indeed, there are very few chefs who understand the heart of cooking at such a young age, and they are unique in the history of Yuanyue Academy. It deserves to be cultivated well. ”
"Well, over the years, the power of late-night cooks has become more and more rampant, and even the WGO has a feeling of powerlessness. Emiya's talent is probably the strongest of all the students, and if he can grow up earlier, we old fellows will be able to have it easier. ”
"The strongest talent? Commander-in-chief, are you exaggerating? Although Emiya comprehended the heart of cooking early, other talented chefs will also realize sooner or later that from the perspective of later development, Erina's 'Tongue of God' and Ryo Hayama's 'Nose of God' should be more talented than Emiya. ”
"Don't worry, silver, I'm not old and faint, old man. It was an old man who told me something that made me this judgment. ”
"Since the commander-in-chief has a basis for acting, then I will not say much. I still have teaching tasks on my side, so I won't talk to the commander more. ”
"Well, there you go."
On the other side, Li Xiang was taken to the back kitchen by a service staff from the Yuanyue Hotel, and met Guan Shouping, who supervised the students to complete 50 dishes every afternoon.
According to Dojima Gin, this afternoon's project is all over, that is, there are no 50 cooking tasks this afternoon, and when the other teachers are still tasked with the last task at this time, Guan Shouping, who has no task, is naturally the best person to be in charge of the preparation of tonight's dinner.
Seeing Li Xiang enter the kitchen, Guan Shouping, who was checking the list of kitchenware and materials, raised his head:
"You're Emiya, the new student that Mr. Dojima arranged to come in, welcome."
Although he said "welcome", Guan Shouping's expression did not change at all, and his eyes did not "open".
After a few simple polite greetings, Guan Shouping got to the point:
He handed Li Xiang a list, "This is the list of dishes decided by the graduates of Yuanyue, everyone makes a dish, the type and form of the dish is not limited, you can take a look, be careful not to make duplicate dishes." If you have any special material needs, you can come to me in less than an hour, and if it's too late, I'm afraid it's too late. ”
At this point, there are still 5 hours left before the start of the evening reward dinner.
After reading the list provided by Guan Shouping, Li Xiang thought for a few minutes, and then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he picked up a pen and paper and wrote a list and handed it to Guan Shouping.
"Chef Guan, this is the ingredient I need, can you please help provide it?"
Guan Shouping glanced at the contents of the list:
"Well, all the ingredients on the list are available. But the kitchenware side is ...... Do you need chains and a fire when cooking? What exactly are you going to cook? ”
"It's an idea of mine, and even I don't know if it's going to work out, so if I can, I'll ask the head chef to help me prepare a spacious enough space with nothing around. I also have more materials to prepare, and I need to try them out a few times in advance to verify whether my idea is feasible. ”
"With so many materials, you also need a venue, I don't have the right to directly agree, I need to ask the head chef and the chief coach of Dojima, you wait here first."
Guan Shouping dialed the phone, chatted with the other end of the phone, and then handed the phone to Li Xiang.
"The Commander-in-Chief has something to ask you."
Li Xiang took the phone, and the hoarse and old but angry voice of Nagi Senzaemon came:
"Emiya, you're not planning to set fire to the Far Moon Resort."
"No, no, no...... Marshal, you're laughing, but that's actually ......"
Li Xiang communicated with Nagi Senzaemon for a long time, and in the end, the old man reluctantly agreed to Li Xiang's request:
"Well, I agreed. But you have to be safe, I'll have the security guards ready to put out the fire. ”
