Chapter 258: Abandoning the race?
Three days passed in a flash, and the semi-finals of the Chef Contest arrived as scheduled.
After the publicity a while ago, coupled with the previous amazing performance, although it was only the semi-finals, the audience who came to watch the game had reached a terrifying point.
Ticket prices at the venue have skyrocketed.
Even so, there are still a lot of suitors.
"Are you really going?"
Du Mengqing looked at Lin Jie, who was dressed, and a trace of worry flashed on her face.
In the past few days, Lin Jie has also told in detail about the things she encountered before, and after learning about the mysterious person's request, she still has a little worry in her heart.
After all, the Mystery Man's abilities are too amazing.
First of all, the old man Fang of the Fang family was seriously ill, and then Lin Jie was beaten like that, if it wasn't for the medicine, I am afraid that he would have to go a different way.
But even so, Lin Jie is still stubborn to participate in the competition, which is really incomprehensible.
"Since I'm still alive, then there is still a chance to turn things around."
Lin Jie smiled, rubbed Du Mengqing's head, and said, "If I retreat at this time, wouldn't it just be in line with the other party's wishes?" Besides, I can't just watch the splendor be proud! ”
"Okay!"
In terms of the ability to argue, where would Du Mengqing be his opponent, he smiled helplessly and said, "Since you have already decided, then do it according to your method!" ”
"We will always stand behind you and be your back!"
"On the night of triumph, we are going to have a good party!"
As she spoke, her hand was still unhonestly smoothed around her waist, and a touch of shyness flashed on the woman's face, and she snorted and said, "I don't know how honest I am!" ”
"Hey, hey!"
Lin Jie got up satisfied, strode out of the hotel room, and drove straight to the scene of the competition.
The game was scheduled to start at one o'clock in the afternoon, and many people had just had lunch and were already in a hurry to the venue, for fear of missing every moment.
When Lin Jie arrived, it was already crowded, although the game had not yet started, he could still feel the crowd in the venue, which was completely the atmosphere of a world-level competition.
Standing in the center of such a venue to compete, it is inevitable that people will have a little blood boiling impulse.
It's kind of interesting!
He has just advanced in strength, and his hands have been itching, and at this time, when he heard such a boiling voice in his body, he couldn't help but feel a little impulsive to explode.
Restraint restraint!
Lin Jie soothed his mood and scanned his surroundings, looking for his opponent.
According to the competition system, there are four people who should reach the semi-finals, except for him, the rest are the hoodie boy, the mask man, and a middle-aged uncle who has never seen him.
But at this moment, all he saw was a hoodie boy and a middle-aged man, and there was no trace of the masked man.
What's going on?
Did the masked man give up the race?
Or did Jin Bi Huang have some accident and decided to give up?
When he was puzzled, he suddenly met the eyes of the hoodie boy, and the sharp gaze made him sense the abnormality in an instant, and quickly turned around to meet him.
It's the first time I've looked at this guy since I met him.
What a terrible gaze!
Although they just looked at each other, it still made Lin Jie feel unprecedented pressure, as if there was not a slight gap between the two, this feeling, it seemed that the person opposite was not a person, but a terrifying beast.
What is this guy's identity?
Taking a deep breath, Lin Jie calmed down the heavy feeling in his chest and turned away, avoiding this guy's gaze. It's not a life-and-death struggle, so there's no need to live or die for the whole thing.
Avoiding its edge is not a countermeasure.
For the two of them, it was just an episode, but for the audience present, it was a different feeling. Under the deliberate guidance of the host, it seems to have become a provocation before the duel between the two.
Lin Jie didn't bother to pay attention to this statement, but returned to the rest area and narrowed his eyes.
"Xiaoxiao, how do you feel?"
Even if he was a little before, he didn't see this guy's eyes, but this time, it's different.
"My judgment is not wrong, this guy is indeed a non-human!"
Xiao Xiao exhaled a long breath and said slowly: "All in all, you have to be careful, although I don't notice this guy's malice now, it's still not easy to deal with." ”
"I would like to announce that the brilliant chef has an unexpected situation and asks to withdraw from the competition, so in this semi-final, another chef will be nominated again......"
At this moment, the entire venue suddenly fell silent, and only the sound of empty announcements echoed throughout the venue.
There were bursts of exclamations in the audience, and many of the audience who came for the masked man were a little disappointed, but now it is like this, fortunately, there are also hoodie boys and Lin Jie, who can also arouse their desires.
"Abstained?"
Lin Jie narrowed his eyes, he always felt that something was weird, with Qin Shaotian's temperament, shouldn't it be like this?
But it's already happening, and there's not so much time left to think about it. After a few deep breaths in a row, Lin Jie's face returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
Soon, the chef who was pushed up appeared, and it was actually the old man from before.
Lin Jie is a lot easier, he has already seen the strength of the old man, and it is probably about the same as Pete, if he wants to compare with him, it is really a little worse.
It seems that in the finals, it is inevitable to meet the hoodie boy Li Xiao.
"The game starts now!"
Since there are only four people, all of them are distributed in pairs, and the arrangement is also proper, Lin Jie is in a group with the old man, and Li Xiao is in a group with the middle-aged uncle.
The content of the competition is also quite simple, just make a good dish of food.
When choosing the ingredients, the old man once again chose sea bass, it seems that he is most proud of this fish raw tattoo, Lin Jie shook his head with a smile, and chose a bowl of rice and two eggs.
"What is he going to do? Do you make egg fried rice? ”
"Crazy, huh?"
"Like, what kind of good dish is this?"
Li Xiao, a hoodie boy, chose tofu, and his opponent, the middle-aged man, chose chicken breast, and they all made a good choice, and the game quickly kicked off.
Lin Jie skillfully beats eggs and fried rice.
It was still a dazzling skill, the golden egg liquid, like a golden dragon, rushed up from the bowl, and with Lin Jie's movements, it finally landed steadily in the pot.
The golden egg cake quickly condensed, but Lin Jie was a stir-fry, and directly lifted the egg out, and the audience who watched it exclaimed.
Was this an accident?
Although if the egg lands, there is nothing to do again, but in this case, it is obviously inferior to others, after all, this is a semi-final.
However, unexpectedly, Lin Jie didn't seem to see the existence of that thing at all, but instead raised his hand, carefully stirred the rice in the bowl, and poured it into the pot.
The quiche flipped several times in mid-air before slowly falling.
Lin Jie suddenly grabbed the kitchen knife and slashed it in the air, and the egg cake turned into a broken egg in the shape of a flower in an instant, and it fell into the pot accurately.
Some spices such as minced green onion, dark soy sauce, chicken essence, etc., then fell into the pot.
Lin Jie directly carried the kitchen knife and stirred it in the pot.
The whole process only lasted for a short five minutes, put the fire down, take out the pot, and a bowl of egg fried rice was ready. The old man on the other side had just cleaned the perch.
Even so, he was still shocked by Xiao Yi's knife skills, although he only showed off his skills in chopping eggs.
But for him, it was already enough.
He is not a fool, but an experienced old chef, who can clearly feel the gap between people, and the knife skills shown by Lin Jie are not comparable to him.
It just so happened that the fish sheng he was going to make was a test of his sword skills.
Simply, he put the perch aside and said with a smile: "Young man, you won!" ”
"Agreed, at your age, it should be my senior."
Lin Jie smiled slightly, and the audience behind him was already completely dumbfounded.
What is this?
One egg fried rice wins? Moreover, the old man actually did nothing?
For such a result, the judges were also helpless, the other party had already admitted defeat, of course Lin Jie won the victory, but in order to ensure a fair attitude, they still tasted Lin Jie's egg fried rice.
The aroma of crushed eggs and rice, combined with those spices, although it doesn't smell excessively rich on the surface, the melt-in-your-mouth texture and the explosive aroma are indeed overwhelming.
If it weren't for the image, they all wanted to eat the rice in one go.
Judging from the performance of the judges, Lin Jie won it, and he finally had real skills, and he could be regarded as convincing some of the audience.
And at this time, the hoodie boy and the middle-aged uncle also made their own food one after another, the middle-aged uncle's kung pao chicken, and the hoodie boy's mapo tofu.
Although it took a long time for the two of them, the strong fragrance made the audience in the entire venue can't help but drool.
It's so delicious!
After the judges tasted it one after another, their faces also changed, and they originally had the faint fragrance of egg fried rice in their mouths, but at this time, there was suddenly such a taste, which was also amazing.
After some debate, the victory was finally decided for the hoodie boy.
The heat required for Kung Pao Chicken is more demanding, and the middle-aged uncle is still a line behind, and after tasting the mapo tofu of the hoodie boy, he also agreed to this choice.
Therefore, the candidates for the finals are out!
