Food: I Am A Cartoonist In Totsuki

Chapter 7: Welcome to Polar Star Dorm

When Isshiki Satoshi saw Tong Yu coming over, he immediately said to him: “Tong Yu is just in time, we are going to hold a welcome party tonight, everyone from Polar Star Dorm is back, you can come too.”

“Welcome? Who do you want to welcome?” Tong Yu asked.

Isshiki Satoshi still smiled with fox eyes: “Tonight, a new classmate will be staying in Polar Star Dorm. We will prepare a welcome party to welcome the new members.”

When Aoki Daigo and Satō Shōji heard this, they secretly despised Isshiki Satoshi in their hearts, because they both understood that Isshiki Satoshi just wanted to party and that welcoming new students was just an excuse.

Tong Yu also remembered that according to the development of the plot, Yukihira Sōma will be staying in Polar Star Dorm.

Yukihira Sōma, the guy who has the pig’s foot halo in the original book, is also one of the objects that can be designated as a “hardcore fan”.

“Okay, I’ll be there on time.” Tong Yu nodded without thinking and agreed.

As evening approached, Yukihira Sōma appeared at the gate of Polar Star Dorm dragging a suitcase.

After a lot of tossing, he finally passed the “Check-in Test” and got Wen Xu’s permission to officially move into Polar Star Dorm.

At about 20 o’clock, Tong Yu, who was rushing to the house, heard a knock on the door.

“Mr Tong Yu, the welcome party is about to start, come here quickly.” Isshiki Satoshi shouted from outside the door.

“Come here now.”

Tong Yu put down the paintbrush in his hand and walked out of the bedroom to the meeting place with Isshiki Satoshi.

The Polar Star Dorm meeting place is selected by default in Marui Zenji’s room at No. 205. The reason everyone gave is that the room is big enough and clean at the same time.

Although Marui Zenji strongly opposes each time, each time he can only compromise.

At this time, seven or eight people were already gathered in the house.

Yoshino Yuuki, Ryoko Sakaki are among them, and Yukihira Sōma, the spiky-haired boy who was called here just after staying at Polar Star Dorm just tonight.

“Our great writer is here too~~” Yoshino Yuuki waved at Tong Yu and shouted.

This sentence immediately attracted the attention of others in the room, all of whom turned their attention to Tong Yu.

“Great writer? Yoshino, what do you mean by that?”

“You don’t know yet, Mr. Tong Yu is the author of the recently popular food comic “China One”!”

After saying this, several people in the room who didn’t know it looked at Tong Yu with surprised eyes.

“You… you are actually the author of “China One”!”

“Idol, you must sign with me, I am your loyal fan!”

Both Aoki Daigo and Satō Shōji were very excited.

Yukihira Sōma hesitated for a moment, and then said, “I thought the author of “China One” was an old man, but I didn’t expect to be about the same age as me.”

Tong Yu looked at the surprised people and said with a smile: “Thank you for your support for my comics, but I hope you don’t publicize the fact that I am a comics author, otherwise I will have no clean life, and I don’t know if I will. Sent blades by some fans.”

Tong Yu didn’t plan to reveal the author’s identity at first, but because of Isshiki Satoshi, several people in Polar Star Dorm knew about it, and now he can only tell everyone in Polar Star Dorm not to spread the matter.

The people at Polar Star Dorm also promised not to spread the matter out, and after chatting some more about comics, a group of people began to get into the topic of this evening.

“We welcome a new member to Polar Star Dorm, let’s toast everyone!” Isshiki Satoshi took the lead and raised his glass and said loudly.

What everyone’s cups contained was not wine, but wheat juice brewed by Sakaki Ryoko himself.

After two or three drinks, everyone knew each other’s names during the chat.

The one with blue double-twisted braids who didn’t speak much since entering the house was Tadokoro Megumi.

Ibusaki Shun, an “autistic” boy with his hair covering his eyes, also rarely speaks.

The only Marui Zenji with glasses.

Then came Isshiki Satoshi, Ryoko Sakaki, Yoshino Yuuki, Aoki Daigo, Satō Shōji, and Yukihira Sōma and Tong Yu.

There are definitely more than these members living in Polar Star Dorm, but since Isshiki Satoshi called everyone to meet every now and then, many people were tired of choosing not to come.

But at present, the people who come here are people who like to “do things”, and they also have their own skills.

For example, Sakaki Ryoko is good at “koji” cuisine, and is very good at fermented ingredients and condiments. She brewed the wheat juice everyone drinks tonight.

The smoked jerky on the ground is by Ibusaki Shun, who is best at smoked dishes. Because of this, he often made his room so smoky, and was scolded by Wen Xu a lot.

Marui Zenji, who seems to be weak, is actually a hidden scholar who has studied various ancient food literature.

Yoshino Yuuki, who specializes in game and “farms” at Polar Star Dorm.

Aoki and Sato from the group of friends are very good at cooking related to “fried”. The ration they brought today is fried assortment.

As for Isshiki Satoshi, I won’t say much for the time being. Being the seventh seat of the Tōtsuki Elite Ten naturally has his strength. However, his hobby is also obvious, that is, he likes all kinds of exciting costumes.

Finally, Tadokoro Megumi, who blushes after saying a word or two, doesn’t seem to have any specialties at the moment. But only Tong Yu knows that Tadokoro Megumi has huge potential, but it has not been stimulated yet.

After getting to know each other, everyone became more casual, and a closer look at several people’s faces showed varying degrees of ruddy.

Only then did Tong Yu realize that the wheat juice had a certain amount of alcohol, no wonder he felt a little dizzy after drinking too much.

After chatting and chatting, the topic of everyone returned to the comic “China One”.

“Tong Yu-kun, the dishes in your comics are so interesting. Can these dishes be made according to the comics?” Yoshino Yuuki asked Tong Yu such a question.

Tong Yu had long thought that some fans would ask him this kind of question, so he answered directly: “Of course it can be done. Every dish in the comics represents the essence of Chinese cuisine. Of course, if the cooking level does not reach a certain level At this point, it will also fail.”

“Hey, that means that all the dishes that appear in this comic, Mr. Tong Yu can cook?” Ryoko Sakaki said in surprise.

“Well, that’s about it.” Tong Yu said.

“Then what are you waiting for, Mr. Tong Yu will show us a hand immediately, we want to taste Chinese food!”

“It happens that the dishes are finished, let’s add more dishes!”

Aoki Daigo and Satō Shōji coaxed together like this, and others also asked Tong Yu to show his hand.

“Then you wait for us, I’ll see if there is anything to cook in the kitchen.” Tong Yu stood up a little helplessly and said.
