Chapter 77: Shao An's Second Shot (Part 2)
"Go in first..."
I saw the scenery first crossing the threshold, and the afterglow of the sunset spread on the waxed wooden floor on the store.
Shaoan looked up again and found that this was really an ordinary restaurant.
There are no eye-catching signs outside the store, and the words "a century-old brand" are written on them. However, with Shaoan's understanding of the group of special chefs, only a very small number of chefs who have achieved such achievements in the field of cooking will choose to hide in such small streets and alleys.
So, to Yan Xian's words, here is a young special chef...
Shaoan couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
However, he did not despise it.
After all, they are in the same class.
Before there is a real life-and-death showdown, the outcome between the special chefs is unknown.
"Be careful."
"It's not a young boy like Liu Maoxing."
With a cautious idea, Shaoan also followed Yan Xian into the store.
The store was empty.
No guests were dining, or even in the open bar, nor were there any chefs or waiters.
“Isn’t anyone here?”
Yan Xian came to know the things he had done, walked through the store, went to the patio and room at the back, and walked back for a while.
Shaoan put down his bag and kitchen utensils and was about to find a seat to sit.
At this time, the sound of boiling water came from the direction of the bar.
Steam was poured into the lid of the pot, and at the same time, waves of strange umami smell leaked out along with the gaps that were poured into the lid of the pot.
"That smell!" Shaoan couldn't sit still.
“Some kind of seafood?”
He saw Yan Xian standing in front of the bar, his eyes also locked on the stove inside, and a stock pot simmered on the low heat.
Yan Xian's expression was not much surprised.
"Are you cooking seafood soup? What are the ingredients?" Shaoan narrowed his eyes.
Who knew that Yan Xian just shrugged his shoulders: "I asked that guy this question yesterday, but he said there was no complicated soup base ingredients."
"He said that one ingredient is a pot of high-quality stock."
"Impossible!"
Shaoan shook his head.
"The umami taste of the ingredients alone cannot reach this level no matter what! There must be a soup base recipe!"
"Yeah?"
Yan Xian just chuckled softly, without saying anything to refute, and a distant look of memories appeared in his eyes.
According to legend, the legendary kitchen utensil "Spiritual Library".
It can give any water freshness, which is deeper than the "Blue Heaven". If you simply think that this legendary kitchen utensil only has the purpose of keeping fresh ingredients forever, it is to underestimate the legendary kitchen utensils.
"You are..."
A surprised voice came from the door.
Yan turned his head first and found that it was a waiter. He frowned and then called out the id: "Zhiyuanxing?"
Chen Zhiyuan obviously returned after running the mission, holding a heavy bag filled with errand-running ingredient items, including potatoes, onions and other items.
"Where is your store manager?" Yan Xian asked this question, and then he found that Chen Zhiyuan was stunned and looked at Shaoan next to him.
"Shao'an?"
"I am Shaoan!"
Chen Zhiyuan's heartbeat was accelerating. He did not underestimate this special chef because of his defeat.
In his opinion, Shaoan was brutally killed by the plot.
To be more precise, it was defeated by the taste of Fairy Be.
Shaoan himself is undoubtedly an important supporting role in "China One". When he appears again in the later stage, he will be a small leader in the dark cuisine industry, with his status as Xiang En. This is enough to prove that his qualifications and cooking skills can also be very comfortable in the Dark World headquarters like the hell jungle.
He went to the provincial association only at noon today to watch the cooking competition and also ate "Magic Mapo Tofu" cooked by Liu Maoxing on the spot.
Now an afternoon has passed, and the location has changed. I see Shaoan again in the shop.
Inexplicably, Chen Zhiyuan felt a distortion and deflection!
Hello!
The original work does not have this plot!
"Damn it, I really want to take a full-body photo of the character Shaoan and post it to the forum to let them watch this sad supporting role!"
He pretended to be calm on the surface, but actually roared on the inside.
Chen Zhiyuan did not use the updated "photograph, video recording" function.
Because, if he, as the official "intern moderator", put this screenshot of the character and made a special post, a group of players would reply to black question marks.
They may have heard of the name Shaoan, who follows the main line, and may also understand this role, which is the key to the upcoming plot in Shu.
However, it is impossible for them to know the story behind Shaoan.
It will not be predicted in advance, and Shaoan will appear in which plot point in the next episode.
"This is the loneliness where I am the only one who knows the truth of the world!"
Chen Zhiyuan sighed.
What's even worse is that just like witnessing the big turn of the plot in Shu with his own eyes, he was so weak that he didn't even have the qualifications to cause trouble.
...
Reality, a small shop in Tokyo.
Xia Yan waved his hand and said goodbye to several guests.
"Wow, I didn't expect that any travel promotional video could help me speed up the task."
Yuka Miura brought several more guests. They were obviously influenced by the promotional video and wanted to try this notorious evil review shop and those weird "black dishes" through the introduction of this street administrator.
Xia Yan of course welcomed the guests to take the initiative to eat dark food.
As a result, the progress of the task of "having a lot of bad reviews" suddenly became 6/10.
He thought, probably, he wanted to take advantage of this wave of east wind to arrange the updated dark menu as soon as possible.
The appetizer is simple, related to sashimi fish fillets, and there are Arhat Crystal Slashes, so you can handle any ingredients calmly.
It is the main dishes, "Bofu with bean paste", "Darkification - Persimmon Green Pepper Shredded Pork" and "Boyant Melon with Bean paste"...
emmm.
Why is it all spicy, bean paste?
Too few types!
As for snacks/snacks, "Spicy Thousand Layers Cake" can be the main force, and he has not successfully darkened "Yulong Gluten" yet.
"After that being said, it's time to learn the recipe of "Magic Mapo Tofu" from Liu Maoxing. Strictly speaking, this is the recipe of Fairy Between Fairy, with a star rating and luminous index that should not disappoint!"
Thinking of this, Xia Yan closed the real store and logged into the Paradise World.
Since Chen Zhiyuan stayed in the store and was like a waiter, Xia Yan fixed the offline location in the dark alley outside the store. He took a few steps and took a step into the store.
But I found that "Zhiyuanxing" was running up and down, serving tea and water to the guests.
Yan Xianhe knew him.
And the other one...
Xia Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and heard the sound of footsteps. Shaoan also turned his head from his seat and collided with his eyes.
"Is it time to close again?" Xia Yan walked around the bar and put on a kitchen dress.
"Tonight, it may be the last pause." Yan Xian grinned slightly, and his teeth were shining with cold light under the candlelight of the lanterns.
"Don't really think about it?"
Yan Xian said: "Go back with me, and with your potential, you can learn any skills in the dark world you want to learn!"
"Feel sorry!"
Xia Yan hugged his arms and didn't feel that he needed any organizational training.
Yan Xian, who was used to his attitude, fell silent. Shaoan raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "This is the invitation of the prodigal son Yan Xian. What are you worried about?!"
"Isn't it good to join the dark cuisine world like me?"
"Although I don't know how you passed the special assessment, if you continue to hide in such a shabby place, be willing to fall into depravity, trapped in a small pond, and open an ordinary shop with no customers, your life's achievements will always be at the special level!"
Obviously, Shaoan has regarded himself as a member of the dark cuisine industry.
Chapter completed!
