For a long time, Totsuki Gakuen has been able to stand at the top of the Japanese cuisine world mainly relying on two points. One is the right to define food. The Nakiri family's "God's Tongue" is recognized as the highest definition of "deliciousness" in the Japanese cuisine world. Authority can easily determine the fate of a cook.
The second is that Totsuki Academy has a monopoly on the best cooks in Japan. In Japan, whenever Totsuki Academy participates in a cooking competition, the final winner must be a student of Totsuki Academy or a graduate. student.
Of course, there are many places where Totsuki is powerful, but when it comes to Totsuki's foundation, there is no doubt that these are the two points.
But now, Totsuki's foundation has been shaken. Although it is only a tiny bit, it is enough to arouse Totsuki's vigilance, especially the person who shook this foundation, Miyoko Hojo. She was a student of Totsuki before, but she was... Just fired.
Of course, Miyoko Hojo was expelled because she disobeyed the so-called reforms implemented by Nagi Kiri, not because of her lack of ability. In fact, when she was not expelled, Miyoko Hojo's grades were always among the top ten in the first grade. In the future Graduating from Totsuki Academy successfully is no longer a fantasy.
But people outside don't think so much. After extracting the information elements, they will only come up with the information that "Totsuki is a third-year student who was defeated by an expelled first-year student."
Is this the legendary teaching ability of the highest culinary school in Japan? A student who was expelled in the first grade actually defeated a third grader? Doesn't this mean that Totsuki's teaching ability is nothing more than this!
(PS: Of course, Totsuki’s teaching ability is by no means outstanding. Many students enter the school with arts and cooking skills.)
Tian Suohui was expelled from school before, but unexpectedly joined Uncle Liu's disciples. The old commander knew Liu Bo's abilities and also understood that Tian Suohui had gained Uncle Liu's favor, and his future would be limitless. He tried his best to retire early and bring Tian Suohui back. He was accepted into Totsuki's sect because Totsuki would never allow anyone to establish a new position in the cooking world, especially when that person was previously considered a "discard" by Totsuki.
Now, after being expelled from school, Miyoko Hojo not only did not recover from the fall, but began to make a name for herself in the cooking world, and even frustrated Totsuki's students, which made the outside world begin to question Totsuki's teaching ability.
As the leader of Japanese cuisine, Totsuki will never allow herself to be questioned like this (even if it is true). If Miyoko Hojo is just the daughter of the head chef of Hojo House, then she will definitely face suppression from Totsuki. ——Whether cutting off the supply chain of Hojo House or releasing news in the industry that Hojo House's food is unhygienic, Totsuki has too many ways to manipulate Hojo House. There is always a way to force Miyoko Hojo to bow to Totsuki and beg. Totsuki included her again.
But the problem is that in addition to being the daughter of the head chef of Hojo House, Miyoko Hojo is also the assistant cook of Shinkawa House.
Well, that's right, for Totsuki, her identity as the daughter of the head chef of Hojo Building is obviously not as intimidating as her identity as the assistant cook of a part-time chef at Shinkawa Building, a subsidiary building of Hojo Building.
Because Miyoko Hojo is a cook under a part-time chef, it is not feasible to suppress Miyoko Hojo and let her know the cruelty of society. Totsuki can only choose Huairou. For the second time, she wants to invite Miyoko Hojo. Please She returned to the moon again.
Although this kind of back-eating behavior is somewhat ugly, it has been done once before by Tadokoro Hui, so it is ugly. Anyway, it is easy to make things easier, and Totsuki doesn't care about that much anymore.
Moreover, Hojo Miyoko's expulsion was originally unreasonable. Recalling her can be interpreted as "setting things right". Then let the people in the public relations department work harder and publicize Totsuki's error correction mechanism more, so that outsiders can focus on If Yueyue realizes his mistakes and can correct them, then this crisis will be over.
But it is a pity that Miyoko Hojo rejected Totsuki's invitation before. After defeating the third-year students in the cooking competition, Miyoko Hojo looked down on Totsuki Academy even more, so she rejected Totsuki again.
There is no other way. Totsuki can only send the current seat, Tazoe, to visit in person, trying to use the friendship between Tazoe and Hojo Miyoko to persuade Hojo Miyoko. After all, when Totsuki was in school, Tazoe and Hojo Miyoko had a slight friendship, and Tazoe just had a relationship with Miyoko. When she returned to school, she was ostracized by her classmates, but Miyoko Hojo stood up for her.
Because Tian Suohui and Yan Kai have a good relationship, Tian Suohui can also avoid conflicts with Yan Kai to the greatest extent. After all, Yuanyue's behavior is not easy to hear, and he is just poaching.
But the problem is that Miyoko Hojo is very determined to stay in Shinkawa House. Even if Tadokoro comes to persuade her, she has no intention of returning to Totsuki.
"Hojo-kun, it's fun to go back to school and learn cooking with everyone. Do you really not want to think about it anymore?"
Tadokoro showed pleading eyes, like a cute little rabbit.
She was actually forced to come here by the teacher's mission. As one of the "Top Ten", she enjoyed various privileges in the school. Even now that the "Top Ten Council" has been disbanded, the management of the school has fallen to the commander-in-chief. But this does not mean that the "Top Ten" will only enjoy rights and do not need to perform obligations. When the school is in trouble, they must step forward to solve the trouble, and now Miyoko Hojo is in trouble.
Facing Tazoe's pitiful look, Hojo Miyoko also felt soft in her heart, but she would not change her mind just because of this little bit of softness, so she still said firmly: "Don't think about it, I won't be far away." Moon’s!”
If she becomes Yuanyue's student again, it will definitely take up a lot of her time. How can she learn cooking skills from Yan Kai?
Compared with staying with Yan Kai to study cooking, the aura of "Totsuki Graduate" or even "Top Ten Graduates" seems less important to her. Compared with reputation, Miyoko Hojo knows better The importance of strength.
In fact, Tadokoro Kei persuaded Miyoko Hojo to return to Totsuki because she was a bit full. She had many friends in school and thought it would be fun to improve her cooking skills with her friends. However, Miyoko Hojo was a loner in school. In ordinary existence, there are no good friends and no one with whom to learn cooking.
Moreover, Tadokoro was taught by a Nakahara cooking god like Uncle Liu, but Hojo Miyoko couldn't even find a decent teacher who was proficient in Chinese raw materials in school. Their treatment in school was very different. Tadokoro Of course, I think studying in school is good and interesting, but for Miyoko Hojo, that's not the case at all.
Of course, there was absolutely no malice in Tadokoro's words, but Miyoko Hojo found it difficult to empathize with the "happiness" Tadokoro said. She only felt that there were always people at Totsuki Academy who would discriminate against her because of her daughterhood, but in In the eyes of Yan Kai, the chef of Shinkawa House, there has never been a distinction between men and women. He will not discriminate against Miyoko Hojo because she is a girl, nor will he favor her because she is a girl.
In Yan Kai's eyes, tools (people) only matter whether they are useful or not, whether they are female or male, and they are not Sun Wukong!
This kind of differential treatment makes Miyoko Hojo most comfortable, so she will not leave Shinkawa Building even if she is asked to leave.
"Yan Sang!"
"Yan Sang!"
"Yan Sang!"
As soon as Yan Kaifu entered the kitchen, the cooks who were busy cooking did not dare to stop their work, but they all bowed their heads to Yan Kai respectfully, including the ones behind Xinchuan House in theory. The person with the highest status in the kitchen, the chef of Xinchuan House, Xinchuan Jiezhi, not only bowed his head to Yan Kai and saluted, but also had the most sincere attitude.
In a restaurant, the chef is absolutely the soul, especially in high-end restaurants. In order to strengthen the chef's loyalty to his branch, Hojo House specifically allows the chef of the branch to name the branch after himself. The chefs at Hojo House are also proud to step out of the main building and serve as branch chefs. However, when it comes to Shinkawa House, this style seems a bit wrong. When people talk about Shinkawa House, the first thing they want to say is "New House". "Chef", and then there is the rebellious Manager Kaito. Chef Sukeyuki Shinkawa, who is supposed to be the soul of the restaurant, seems unknown compared to the previous two, and can even be said to be a little transparent in the industry.
Of course, he has nothing to be dissatisfied with. Anyway, Yan Kai is an international student and will return to China after he graduates from high school. Compared with Yan Kai taking away all the glory, he is actually more worried about whether he will be able to survive after Yan Sang leaves Xinchuan Building. Can you carry the Xinchuan Building's sign for Yan Sang, and...when will that little girl from the main building get out!
Shinkawa Jiezhi and Yan Kai have never been in a competitive relationship. The gap in ability is so big that he can't even think of catching up with Yan Kai. He just wants to be Yan Kai's leg pendant. Well, he just happens to be with Manager Kaito. right.
But Miyoko Hojo, who suddenly joined the kitchen, was Shinkawa Sukeyuki's real competitor. Before she came, Shinkawa Sukeyuki was Yan Kai's assistant cook, but after Hojo Miyoko came, she snatched him away. The position of a kitchen helper.
Well, the dignified chef of Shinkawa House became someone else's assistant cook, but Shinkawa Suke felt no shame at all. On the contrary, Hojo Miyoko took away his position as assistant chef, and Shinkawa Suke regarded it as a great shame and humiliation, and regarded Hojo Miyoko as He became his biggest enemy.
If there is anyone in Shinkawa House who hopes that Miyoko Hojo will leave Shinkawa House and return to Totsuki Academy, that person must be Sukeyuki Shinkawa.
"Yan Sang!"
After seeing Yan Kai walking into the kitchen, Hojo Miyoko felt nervous.
She knew that Yan Kai and Tian Suohui had a close relationship, and she was a little worried that Yan Kai would force her to return to Yueyue Academy in compliance with Tian Suohui's request.
Yan Kai nodded slightly towards Miyoko Hojo, then looked at Tasoko with a smile: "Xiao Megumi!"
"Kaijun!"
Tian Suohui also smiled after seeing Yan Kai.
"Hey, hey, Yan Sang, I'm here too, why don't you say hello to me!"
Yoshino Yuki jumped up and said next to Tazoe.
She was small, and she was afraid that Yan Kai wouldn't notice her if she didn't jump up.
"Well, hello Yoshino-kun!"
Yan Kai greeted Yoshino Yuki symbolically, and Yoshino Yuki showed a satisfied smile.
"Kai-kun, Yuki and I are here to invite Hojo-san to return to Totsuki. Hojo-san is unwilling, so how about you help me persuade her!"
Tasoko couldn't persuade Miyoko Hojo, so she directly hoped Yan Kai would help her persuade her.
In Tadokoro's view, returning to Totsuki Academy and graduating from Totsuki Academy is the right path for Miyoko Hojo as a cook, and she is doing this for Miyoko Hojo's own good.
Miyoko Hojo looked at Yan Kai nervously.
In Shinkawa Building, Yan Kai is the one who really speaks the truth. He nodded at this time. Even if Miyoko Hojo is the daughter of the head chef of Hojo Building, Manager Kaito will definitely "invite" Miyoko Hojo out of Shinkawa Building without hesitation.
"Xiao Hui." Yan Kai smiled slightly at first, and then said to Tadokoro Kei seriously, "Whether you want to stay or not, this is Hojo's personal wish. I will not interfere in any way. Xiao Hui, you should persuade yourself. If one day I let you If Hojo leaves, it will only be because her ability cannot meet my requirements, nothing else."
Miyoko Hojo on the side felt moved. This not only respected her wishes, but also recognized her abilities, and these two things happened to be what she longed for most.
After being rejected by Yan Kai, Tian Suohui sighed, but did not ask for anything more.
She has a soft temper, can't speak harsh words, and can't be tough in doing things. Since Miyoko Hojo refuses and Yan Kai is unwilling to help her, she can only go back and resume her life.
Tadokoro's mission failed, but Yoshino Yuki, who was accompanying her, was not disappointed, but showed a look of infatuation: "Well, although, Yan Sang, can you treat us to something delicious?"
She would come with Tadokoro just to try her luck and see if Yan Kai would be here. If so, she would want to eat some of Yan Kai's food.
How did you arrive at this “although but”?
Yan Kai's face was full of doubts, but looking at Tian Suohui's face, Yan Kai nodded slightly: "Okay."
Anyway, this is the kitchen, with all the materials, kitchen utensils, and helpers available, making it easy to make a few side dishes.
"I'm here to help!"
Hojo Miyoko immediately became energetic, and Shinkawa Sukeichi, who was watching all this from a distance, looked unhappy, "Hey, he let these two Totsuki people in for nothing!"
…………………………
After chatting with Tian Soe, Yan Kai left Xinchuan Building. The matter was done. All that was left was to wait for Kinda Yiyi's reply. Yan Kai simply returned to Mingshan Apartment.
As soon as he returned to the thirteenth floor of Mingshan Apartment, Yan Kai heard a burst of sobbing, and the sound was very familiar. He followed the sobbing and walked to Kasumigaoka Shiu's room, where he found that it was Nakiri Erina crying with her head down. On the side, Kasumigaoka Shiyu continued to comfort her.
Yan Kai was shocked: "Didn't I just drive Hojo back to Toyue, and now I'm making you angry and crying?"
He also knew Totsuki's style and knew that the existence of Miyoko Hojo affected Totsuki's authority, so it was understandable that Erina Nakiri came to Mingshan Apartment to find him to confront Yankai, but why was Erina Nakiri crying? Is this still the strong and arrogant Erina Nakiri?
"What Hojo?" The sobbing Erina Nakiri stopped crying and raised her head with a confused expression.
But soon, Nakiri Erina figured out who "Hojo" Yan Kai was talking about, and she lowered her head again and started sobbing: "Who cares about Miyoko Hojo! It's Hisako!"
"Fei Sha Sha? What's wrong with Fei Sha Sha?"
Yan Kai said in surprise.
If something happened to Nito Hisako, who was like a brother and sister to Nakiri Erina, then Nakiri Erina's reaction would be understandable.
"Fei Shasha ran away from home!"
Nakiri Erina burst into tears and said.
"..."
runaway? Can this thing be contagious?
Yan Kai was silent for a while.
