Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 209 Live Performance
As Ishino's hands flew and danced on the table, the dazzling and superb skills were like magic, which really feasted the eyes and amazed the people around him.

I saw his two hands slowly and continuously handling raw materials such as eggs, flour, milk, sugar, sometimes as fast as lightning, sometimes as soft as water, as if the cake embryo was molded in an instant.

After handing the cake embryo to the restaurant chef for baking, Ishino started making fresh milk and cream for decoration all the time. After mixing various food colorings with the cream with his hands, they presented a variety of extraordinarily bright colors. Bright color and a sweet but not greasy milky fragrance.

With the help of the molecular cuisine technology that the restaurant is proud of, a piece of cake with a golden color and a mixed shape was quickly baked into shape. When the chef brought the baked cake to everyone, the refreshing natural sweetness hit the nostrils. Come, people can't help but want to smell the fragrance a few more times.

Ishino took the cake embryo and neatly placed it in the center of the decorating table. He then picked up the decorating spatula and evenly touched the fresh milk as white as snow to the surface of the cake, and then put the fresh milk into the decorating bag. Use the icing tip to decorate around the cake, and soon a flawless white cake will be ready.

At this point, Ishino's preparations were considered complete. He looked up at Hiroki in front of him, blinked his eyes and signaled that he was going to start officially, then started the most critical decoration with the flower bag in one hand and the flower knife in the other. link.

The onlookers were quite curious about what pattern Ishino would use to decorate the cake. When Ishino just started to work, they guessed the final shape of the cake.

But when the rectangular cream frame with the texture of solid wood was presented in front of everyone, almost no one could guess what Ishino wanted to make, except Hiroki Sawada himself, who was staring at the cake with all his attention.

Watching the rectangular cream frame being quickly raised and capped under Ishino's operation, Hiroki felt more and more that what the other party was making was probably what he thought.

When the house-like structure appeared on the rectangular base under Ishino's easy and freehand outline, looking at the exquisite sculpture made of cream in front of him, Hiroki couldn't help but exclaimed: "This, this is Nuo Ark?"

"That's right, this is Noah's Ark." As he spoke, Ishino picked up a piping bag filled with indigo cream from the side and painted it on the surface of other white cakes. After a while, a rough sea appeared in front of everyone.

After a little embellishment, the whole cake is like a picture scroll of Noah's Ark riding the wind and waves in the great flood of the last days. Everyone's heart is surging, as if they are in the legendary catastrophe.

Just when everyone thought the cake was finished, they saw a snow pear appear in Ishino's palm as if by magic, and his other hand took out a fruit knife at some point.

I saw him lightly sticking the fruit knife to one side of the pear, and just turning the pear in his hand, the peel wrapped on its surface was like a veil slowly falling on the table, with the width and thickness as if It is the same as calculated with precision instruments.

Looking at the fruit in Ishino's hand that had peeled off its outer skin, revealing the snow-like flesh inside, Conan looked at Xiao Ai beside him with a smirk and whispered: "Huiyuan, this fruit seems to be called Sydney, its Chinese pronunciation It’s almost exactly the same as your organization’s codename ‘Shirley’!”

"Thank you for your concern, Detective." Xiao Ai was too lazy to pay attention to Conan, who looked dead, and responded straightforwardly, "But I already know this, okay, you don't need to remind me."

In fact, as early as when Xiao Ai first confessed her past to her adoptive parents, Ishino mentioned in a funny way that the name of the fruit "Snow Pear" was very similar to her code name, and even specially bought a few to take home for her to try. So when she heard Conan mention it in a serious manner, not only did she feel calm in her heart, she even felt like laughing.However, the two people who had just finished whispering quickly returned their attention to Ishino's hand, because what the other party performed next was also the first time for them to see it.

I saw Ishino cutting the Sydney pear in two with a knife in his hand, gouged out the core neatly, picked up half of the Sydney pear, and quickly walked on the surface of the flesh with a carving knife.

As he applied the six carving knife methods of flat knife, oblique knife, straight round knife, reverse round knife, triangular knife, and jade-like knife to that little Sydney in turn, one piece was carefully carved, and even Little birds with fine feathers were formed in his hands little by little.

After that, Ishino used a paint spray gun to give it the final decoration, and a blue and white seagull showed its flying figure in front of everyone's eyes.

When Ishino used a toothpick to fix this vivid little seagull in front of Noah's Ark, everyone couldn't help but imagine that it was this brave little bird that braved the storm and pointed out the direction for the Ark.

Although Ishino didn't say anything, there were many thoughtful people present. Looking at the shirt on Hiroki with the same color as the seagull, they knew that Ishino was quite distracted in the design of this cake.

Faced with this farewell gift of "everything goes without words", Hiroki Sawada immediately understood the other party's care and expectations for him, and his eyes became moist.

Just when he was hesitating whether he should express his gratitude aloud, he saw that the other party picked up the other half of a Sydney and walked around the table towards him.

Ishino handed half of the snow pear to Hiroki and asked with a smile: "Hiroki, do you want to eat a pear? This pear was specially selected by me. It is absolutely sweet and delicious. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it on the cake." That piece, so this piece is specially reserved for you.”

Hiroki originally thought that Ishino wanted to continue processing the half pear, but when he heard the other party's remarks, the tears that he tried so hard to hold back did not need to be held back this time, and was forced to be squeezed by the eyes bent into crescent moons from laughter Out of the eye socket.

"Uncle Ishino, you are such an interesting person, hahaha..." Hiroki took the pear from the other person's hand, took a big bite and smiled, "It's really sweet, I hope I can eat such delicious fruit again in the future! "

Seeing Hiroki's smiling face, Thomas smiled and said to Ishino: "Mr. Ishino, you must have put a lot of thought into preparing this gift for Hiroki. Thank you very much."

"Mr. Thomas, you are too polite. This is just a small effort. If I can make Hiroki like me, it is not in vain." Ishino responded with a smile.

At this time, the store manager who was watching the whole process also sighed with admiration: "Mr. Ishino's cake making show today is really a feast for the eyes. This freewheeling creative technique has greatly inspired and taught me."
