Food: I was a cartoonist in Totsuki

Tong Yu had an idea a long time ago. If legendary kitchen utensils could be used to cook the high-end ingredients in "The Prisoner of Food", would it make the ingredients more delicious?

Or will something unexpected happen?These are things that Tong Yu is more curious about and wants to do.

……

Accommodation training, release of new works, integration of gourmet cells, and access to legendary kitchenware.

A lot of things happened in the past half month, and Tong Yu suddenly felt that life was too fulfilling and even too busy.

This also strengthened the idea of ​​​​finding an assistant to help him share the work.

The busy work hasn't stopped yet. Tong Yu has to complete an episode of "The Prisoner of Food" every night, and also has to deal with the upcoming shokuji.

The story of Tongyu and Etsuya Eizan eating halberds spread throughout Totsuki Academy once again as the time of eating halberds slowly approached.

Almost everyone in Totsuki paid attention to this matter, including the academy commander Nakiri Senzaemon.

The day of Shokugeki's decisive battle came soon. Since it was Saturday, the students did not have to go to class, so they all gathered at Shokugeki's location.

The Shokugeki venue is not Tsukiten, but it is also a relatively famous Shokugeki venue in Totsuki Academy. The auditorium, which can accommodate thousands of people, was filled with spectators early.

Most of these audiences are students, but you can also see audiences other than students, such as partners who work with Yuanyue, famous gourmets, etc.

After all, this fight is related to the ownership of the top ten seats, so it is normal for these partners to pay attention.

The official start time of Shokugeki is 9 o'clock, and the time at this time is 8:30.

Located in the middle of the cooking area, Rei Kawashima, the master of ceremonies for this show, has also appeared.

Rei Kawashima looked at the almost empty audience seats around her, and she was also surprised...

Even though I knew that this Shoji incident was attracting a lot of attention, I didn't expect it to reach this level.

In addition to the huge crowds, the number of people who came was also extraordinary.

I saw three of the Ten Elites besides Deeiyama Ezuya, and there were also some gourmets who could be named.

Kawashima Rei knew that this was a great opportunity for her to become famous. She sorted out her somewhat excited emotions, cleared her throat, and then started hosting.

"Everyone has been waiting for a long time. The long-awaited Shokugeki is about to begin. The next Shokugeki will determine the ownership of the ninth seat of the Ten Elites in Toyue's highest authority. The challenger is the first-year freshman Tong rain'……"

As Rei Kawashima finished speaking, Tong Yu walked out of the contestant tunnel and walked to the cooking venue.

Tong Yu looked indifferent and appeared in everyone's sight with a kitchen utensil box in her right hand.

"Ayu, come on!"

Seeing Tong Yu appear on the stage, everyone in Ji Xing Liao pulled up the cheering banners they had prepared and shouted loudly.

In addition to the cheers from Ji Xing Liao, you can also hear the cheers from another group of bald heads.

Beyond that, it's hard to hear the cheers.

In contrast, when it was Etsuya Eizan, the cheers for him could be heard in the venue.

After all, Eizan Edazu is a second-year student and has been among the top ten for a long time. It is understandable that he is more popular than Tong Yu, a first-year student. 3.2.

"The two players have already appeared on the stage. Before determining the conditions for the Shokugeki, let's come to the scene to draw the theme of the duel."

After Rei Kawashima finished speaking, a machine specially used to randomly select duel themes was sent to the cooking venue.

This machine is somewhat similar to a "claw machine". There are many small folded pieces of paper in a transparent glass plate.

Ding!

The start button of the machine was pressed, and a strong wind blew in the machine.

The folded piece of paper also tumbled in the strong wind.

"In order to ensure the fairness of Shokuki, we handed over the selection of themes to the director of the Shokuki Administration Bureau who specially took the time to come to the scene - Kageura Hisao!"

After Kawashima Rei finished speaking, Kageura Hisao appeared in front of everyone wearing fancy playing card-style clothes.

Chapter 59 Temperature

Kageura Hisao, the current director of the Shokugeki Administration Bureau, wears black-rimmed glasses and a colorful playing card suit.Although his clothes are "fancy", he is serious about his words.

With a serious look on his face, Kageura Hisao came to the machine that selected the theme, reached out and grabbed a piece of paper folded in half.

Then he unfolded the note and held it high, only to see two words written on it - beef.

When he saw this theme, Tong Yu's eyes flashed, and an unknown smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Ruishan Ezu also snorted coldly, lowered his head slightly and didn't know what he was thinking.

"The theme of Shokoku is determined to be 'beef'! After the cooking officially starts, two contestants are asked to cook a dish with the theme of 'beef'. There is no limit to the dishes. The cooking time is three hours. The one who completes it first can submit it to the review first. Members have tasted it, so now the bet for this meal is once again determined..."

The stakes have not changed, they are still the same as they were struck before.

If Tong Yu wins, he will inherit Eizan Etsuya's ninth seat, and Eizan will also be expelled from school.

Eizan Edazu also won. Tong Yu's "personal assets" will be owned by Eizan, and Kuaga Teruki will also withdraw from the eighth seat, and Eizan's seat will advance one place.

Just from the bet of the Shoji, everyone knows that there are many unknown things hidden behind this Shoji.Because Tōyu and Eizan’s shokuji were mixed with the eighth seat’s Kuga Teruki.

"Senior Eizan, you are well and well. Before the official start of Shokugeki, I still want to say thank you. Thank you for the 'special care' you gave me during the residential training..."

"What are you talking about, Junior Tong Yu? I can't understand a word of it. I heard that the circulation of your new comic has exceeded 1000. I really want to congratulate you for writing such a masterpiece..."

Ruishan listened deliberately for a moment as he spoke, with a sly smile on his face: "But it's a pity that such a good work will be in my pocket right away!"

"Really? It seems that Senior Ruishan's sleep quality has been very good recently. What brand of pillows are you using?" Tong Yu mocked.

When Tong Yu and Ruishan were "reminiscing about old times", Kawashima Rei also introduced the examiner who would serve as the judge this time.

The judges this time were a trio of "two old men and one young man".

Two bald old men and a middle-aged man who looked to be in his 30s.

These two old men are both sponsors of Totsuki Academy and enjoy high status in Totsuki. It can be said that in Totsuki, besides Nakiri Senzaemon, they are the only ones with seniority.

The bald, kappa-like old man is called Oizumi.

The one with a chubby figure and rosy complexion is called Aizawa.

As for the last middle-aged man, his name is Hiromi Tsushima. He is the chief planner of Tokyo TV’s food column and a well-known gourmet in Tokyo.

The three of them seemed to know each other, and they sat down together in front of the judging table and chatted.

"Mr. Oizumi, who of the two players do you like more?" Tsushima Hiroyuki asked.

"I'm more optimistic about the top ten. After all, the top ten are Totsuki's 'signatures' and all have their own skills. It's rare to see ordinary students defeat the top ten in regular shokuji." Oizumi touched his chin and analyzed.

Aizawa also nodded to express his agreement with Oizumi's point of view and said: "Well, unless this student is particularly outstanding and talented. But what is the 'personal assets' mentioned in the bet just now?"

"I'm not sure, because it involves players' privacy issues, and the administration is unwilling to disclose it..."

Since the theme is drawn on site, the ingredients cannot be prepared in advance.

After the theme is announced, the contestants tell the staff of the Shokuki Administration Bureau the ingredients they need, and then prepare them.

After thinking for a few minutes, Tong Yu decided on the dish she wanted to cook, and then told the staff the ingredients and props needed.

The same goes for Eizan, who also decided on the recipe in just a few minutes.

This Shoji event had been decided half a month ago and had received great attention from the Shoji management team. All aspects of the on-site preparations were very complete.

Soon the ingredients and props needed by the two contestants were delivered to their respective cooking tables.

Needless to say, the main ingredient on both sides is beef, but the selected parts are different.

Ruishan chose beef shank, while Tong Yu chose beef tenderloin.

Two completely different parts, the taste will be very different.

In addition, Ruishan's other auxiliary ingredients include whipped cream, anchovies, Western mustard, yogurt, eggs, etc...

The ingredients Tong Yu chose were relatively simple. All that could be seen were bamboo shoots, cabbage, fungus, vermicelli, and four bottles of tequila.And then there is a big tank...

This large tank has a depth of two meters and a diameter of about one meter. This large tank contains water that is one-half the depth of the tank.

Since this large tank is relatively bulky, it was transported on a small truck.

Everyone was puzzled when they saw this.

It makes sense to take so much tequila, and this type of drink is often used in the cooking of Western cuisine.

But I can't figure this one out.

"What are you planning to do with this vat?"

"Could it be that they were worried that the water on site was not clean, so they specially obtained better water sources from other places?"

"Something's wrong, there are fish in that tank!" Suddenly a student pointed at the big tank and exclaimed.

I saw two kinds of fish swimming happily in the clear water.

One is a crucian carp and the other is a flounder.

When they saw this, everyone was even more puzzled.

Because there are fish in the tank, it means that the water in the tank is not drinking water.Then it can only mean that this large tank is just used as a container to hold two fishes.

But if you want to use these two fish, you can put them in a small container. Why do you put them in a big tank with so much effort?

After much deliberation, no one knew Tong Yu's intention. However, Kuaga Teruki found something in the VIP room, and his expression flashed with surprise.

"Is it...could he want to cook that dish?" Teruki Kuga exclaimed.

These words were heard by Nakiri 127 Erina and Nito Hisako, who were also sitting in the VIP room.

"Kuga-senpai, do you know what Touyu-kun is going to cook?" Erina asked.

Kuga Teruki then regained his surprised expression and returned to his normal expression: "I'm not sure, but I think I'm pretty close."

Hearing what Teruki Kuga said, Erina was even more curious about what Dou Yu would cook next.

The time soon came to 9 o'clock, and Rei Kawashima took the microphone and announced on time: "Start cooking!"

After saying this, Ruishan took the lead in taking action.

Eizan first absorbs the moisture on the surface of the beef shank with kitchen paper, and then marinates it with salt, black pepper and other seasonings.

The whole process was very skillful, and it was obvious that he had experience in handling this type of ingredients.At the same time, while doing this series, he still cast his eyes on Tong Yu who was sitting on the cooking table behind him from time to time.
