i'm just a cook

A group of people came to the banquet hall located on the west side of the presidential mansion. When Lu Xiaozhan entered the door, he subconsciously scanned the entire venue with his mind, but unexpectedly found that there was no one lurking here, and there were only a few people in the entire banquet hall. But judging from their appearance, they are just the president's bodyguards.

"Did I guess wrong? Didn't Sam plan to stage a coup?" Lu Xiaozhan couldn't help being a little surprised.

As the door opened, Lu Xiaozhan brought the chefs into it with trays of dishes. There was only one dining table in the middle of the banquet hall, and there were only three people sitting at the table. The slightly bald middle-aged man chatted with the other two with a smile on his face. The person sitting next to the main seat was also a middle-aged man. Good lord, and on the opposite side of the main seat, that is, on the main and guest seats, sat an old man with gray hair in a suit and leather shoes.

As soon as Lu Xiaozhan's gaze turned to the old man, his blood boiled all of a sudden, and his pupils shrank involuntarily: "Sam, bastard!"

A row of chefs began to place a set of kitchen utensils and dishes there. The president turned his head and glanced, smiled and said to Sam: "Igolev, do you know why I insist on entertaining you here? Because my The chef has great craftsmanship, I believe it will surprise you."

Igorev, that is, Sam also smiled and said: "Mr. President, you don't have to be so polite. Besides, it is my duty to clean up our country's border waters. Why do you reward me with such a big fanfare?"

The president raised a hand and waved it: "No, no, it's the right thing to do. Come on, let's have dinner first. Those reporters are still waiting for us to show up outside." After speaking, he waved to Lu Xiaozhan, "Hank Si, it's time to serve, what delicious food did you prepare for us today?"

Lu Xiaozhan bowed slightly: "Good Mr. President, today's main course is lime juice with pan-fried salmon, and dessert is cream brulee."

The president clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, this is my favorite delicacy, let's start."

Lu Xiaozhan nodded, came to the table where the griddle was placed, tidied it up a bit and started to heat it up. After a while, the iron plate of the griddle was burnt red and hot. The pot was brought over, some olive oil was poured on the iron plate, and a piece of pre-processed salmon was carefully taken out from a nearby vessel, and it was pasted on the iron plate with a snort.

A burst of tangy aroma suddenly overflowed, the president just wanted to say something to Sam, but stopped, pointed to Lu Xiaozhan and said with a smile: "Iglev, every time my appetite is not good, Han Max can always give me an appetizer, just like now, I can't wait to taste this delicacy in his hands."

Sam looked at Lu Xiaozhan's nimble hands, spraying brandy for a while, and turning over the salmon for a while, the movements were skillful and graceful, and he couldn't help nodding and laughing: "I've heard of Hanks' name a long time ago, today It seems that it really looks like a master, and I am also looking forward to this delicacy."

The other middle-aged fat man didn't say anything, but stared straight at the piece of fish that Lu Xiaozhan's hands were flipping over, looking as if his saliva was about to fall.

On the surface, Lu Xiaozhan is serious about cooking, but in fact he has already started searching the area around him repeatedly with his mind. In his opinion, if Sam didn't arrange people here, then he must have made careful arrangements in the overall situation , If it is said that he has no idea about today's dinner, it is purely for a meal, this is something he will never believe, because he already knew a few years ago that Sam is an extremely ambitious person.

When he came along the way just now, Lu Xiaozhan had searched both sides of the passage, but apart from the Tsing Yi hidden in it, he didn't find any other figures at all. This is where he was a little puzzled.

Suddenly, his attention paused. There was a large lawn outside the gate of the banquet hall. Although it was a severe cold weather, these lawns had obviously undergone special care and looked very lush and green. Of course, this did not make Lu Xiaozhan pay special attention. In fact, the place where Lu Xiaozhan's attention stayed was the bottom of the lawn.

Lu Xiaozhan has not specifically tried how far his mind power can spread, but now he can clearly find that a dozen potholes have been dug under the lawn. On the surface, it is still an ordinary area. There is an ordinary lawn, but under those lovely grasses, there are more than a dozen people hidden.

"I said why can't I find you, so you're all fucking rats!" Lu Xiaozhan sneered in his heart, and then his thoughts turned like lightning.

The more than 30 cold-fire mercenaries hiding in the outer area have already given him some headaches. After all, they are all elemental fighters. In addition to the perverted hellfire, it means that there are more than 30 perverted semi-supermen. It's surrounded here.

Now he discovered that these dozens of people were hiding in places where others could not find them. Obviously they were the remaining K5 personnel who disappeared under Lu Xiaozhan's nose. These killers are not something his bodyguards can deal with.

While cooking, Lu Xiaozhan was thinking about countermeasures. There must be nothing wrong with the president. Otherwise, he would have nothing to do with him here. Besides, Sam is here, and Lu Xiaozhan has been looking for him for a long time. , let alone let him escape easily.

There are only so many people on his side, which means that each person has to deal with more than three elemental fighters. This is a very tangled and headache problem for him.The matter has come to this point, and I can only take one step at a time. Fortunately, I am by the president and Sam's side now, and they haven't found out that they are a fake chef.

The president watched Lu Xiaozhan busy with his hands flying, and joked: "Hanks, is it almost ready? Our chief financial officer seems to have not eaten lunch. I'm afraid you have to hurry up."

The chubby middle-aged man turned his head back and said with a smile, "Mr. President, I really didn't have lunch. I've been busy with the budget for the new year all day today."

Lu Xiaozhan picked it up with a frying spatula, put a piece of fried golden-yellow and delicious salmon into the dinner plate, and carefully arranged the side dishes, and put one portion on the president, Sam, and the chief financial officer. before.

"I'm sorry Mr. President, two officers, I kept you waiting for so long." Lu Xiaozhan stood beside the president with his hands down after serving the dishes, with a neither humble nor overbearing smile on his face.

The president rubbed his hands and looked at the main dish in front of him, and said with a smile, "It's alright, come on, let's start first!" He picked up the knife and fork, cut a small piece into his mouth and began to chew, suddenly His eyes lit up, and he praised loudly, "It's wonderful! Hanks, you seem to be in better condition today than before, and the level of cooking is much higher than before!"

The appearance of the chief financial officer was even worse. He completely lacked the qualities that a high-ranking official of the country should have. He chewed the plate with both hands, and echoed vaguely in his mouth: "It's really wonderful, it's really wonderful, Mr. President! The chef is really good."

Only Sam took a few bites casually and then slowed down, but also praised a few times, Lu Xiaozhan slightly bowed and said: "Thank you, Mr. President and the two officers for your compliments."

The president waved his hand with a smile: "Hanks, take a break first, let's chat for a while, and serve dessert later."

"Okay, Mr. President." Lu Xiaozhan responded and stepped back far away, standing by the griddle with lowered eyebrows and watching.

"Iglev, I invite you two here today because I have something else I want to talk to you two." Not long after, the president finished eating the salmon on his plate and wiped his mouth He raised his head and smiled at Sam, "It won't be long before a new round of general elections will start, what do you two think?"

Lu Xiaozhan seemed to be meditating in a corner, but in fact he had already focused his attention on this place. Hearing what the president said, he couldn't help laughing inwardly: "Let's start. This president is going straight to the point, and he doesn't make any detours."

The finance minister quickly put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth and replied, "Yes, yes, the general election will officially start in two months."

Sam smiled lightly: "Of course we remember such a big event, what do you think, Mr. President?"

The president waved his hand and said with a smile: "As long as it is good for the country and the people, anyone can be the president. I don't have any idea of ​​being re-elected. Besides, the president is not a good job. I have been doing it for so many years. Already very tired."

Sam was stunned: "Oh? Then Mr. President, what you mean by asking this is..."

The president looked at Sam with a smile, and said slowly: "I just want to ask Iglev if you want to participate in the election? In my opinion, you are very promising."

Sam didn't seem to expect the president to say such a sentence, and he laughed and said: "Mr. President, I am only in charge of national defense. For me, managing national security is the only thing I like to do. The position of president is not suitable for me. "

"Oh..." The president nodded seemingly casually, but suddenly said coldly, "Then the research you conducted at the military base in Sparrow Mountain is also for national security?"

As soon as these words came out, even Sam and Lu Xiaozhan were stunned for a moment. Lu Xiaozhan didn't expect that the president looked mediocre, but he already knew such a secret about Sparrow Mountain. Really frustrated.

Sam frowned, but then smiled and said, "Mr. President, what is Sparrow Hill? Why don't I know what you are talking about?"

The president took a sip of the coffee in front of him, and said lightly: "Don't you know? Not only do I know about Sparrow Hills, but I also know that the internationally notorious bee is actually an organization established by you. Yes, then being a president should be your minimum pursuit, right? Am I right?"
