Food Prisoner: Gourmet Collector

"Oh, Johannes, why are you here?" Chenxing asked. Johannes is usually not here. Of course, sometimes meetings will be held here. After all, although the gourmet hotel is an industry under IGO, there are actually several Office location of the IGO department.

Chapter 37 Food City

"Lord Chenxing, you just sent Chef Komatsu back from the Wu Forest." Johannes asked: "Why is Lord Chenxing here too?"

"I must be here to eat!" Chenxing smiled and said, "Xiao Song is here, that's just right."

"By the way, I have a class pig here. I don't know why it has grown extremely huge. You can take it back to the director and the others to study it."

"Oh, Banzhu? Okay, Master Chenxing," Johannes said.After all, this didn’t happen once or twice.

…………

After having a meal at a gourmet hotel and resting for the night, Chenxing took Pujin on the train to a city full of delicious food the next morning.

"I don't know what to say, but why are you two here?" Chenxing looked at the two guys sitting opposite him with some confusion.

"Hehe, isn't this just the way to go?" Alu said, yes, it's Alu. Chenxing originally thought that it would take at least four or five days for Alu to capture BB corn before setting off, but he didn't expect that early the next morning, Chenxing I actually met Aru and Xiaosong, who were dressed in bright suits at the door of the gourmet hotel. Looking at their equipment, it obviously didn't look like they had prepared it suddenly?

"Even Mr. Chenxing and Miss Pujin, I didn't expect to go out with you!" Xiaosong said: "By the way, Mr. Alu, where are we going? We are dressed so formally?"

"I'm going to meet someone, a very important person. I have made an appointment for four years to meet her." Alu said happily.

"Wow, who is it? You actually need to make an appointment for four years before you can make an appointment?" Xiaosong was obviously shocked by Alu's words. After all, Alu, as the Four Heavenly King of Food, actually needs to make an appointment to see someone. What's that like? People.

"Can Mr. Chenxing guess who it is?" Xiaosong asked, looking at Chenxing.

"It's Setsuna Canteen!" Chenxing said with a pout. In fact, it's not that difficult to go to Setsuna Canteen to eat. After all, Setsuna Canteen is open all over the world. There are more than 100 branches around the world, and there are many in cities where you are full of delicious food. There are two, in addition to the old restaurant of Setsuno Canteen itself, there is another one that is cooked by Setsuno's mother-in-law's apprentice Bubu, which is also a ten-star hotel.

"Oh, Chenxing can actually guess it?!" Alu was also quite surprised, but then he thought about it, how could a high-level gourmet hunter like Chenxing not have eaten at the festival canteen?

"Setsuno Cafeteria? Is it Setsuno, the legendary gourmet national treasure?" Komatsu said in shock, his voice obviously trembling.

"Yes." Alu nodded in agreement, and then said, "Has Chenxing been there too?"

"Yes, I go often." Chenxing nodded. After all, he used to eat with Master Jiro at Setsuno's Setsuno's canteen, and he also learned cooking from Setsuno's mother-in-law in Setsuno's canteen.

"Wow, I'm so envious!" When Alu and Xiaosong heard that Chenxing said they go there often, they both stared at Chenxing with great envy.

"Pu Jin, what's wrong?" Chenxing suddenly saw that Pu Jin was not in a good mood, so he asked.

"It's okay, I just miss my master a little." When Pu Jin said this, Chen Xing suddenly remembered that Pu Jin's master was also the reborn master of the national treasure Mo Yang Xiang Xiang of Gourmet World, but Chen Xing knew that if Mo Yang Xiang Xiang was gone at this moment , then it is very likely that he was brainwashed and kidnapped by Joya.

"Well, it's okay. I believe Jiren has her own destiny, and she will be fine." Chenxing didn't know how to comfort her. Could it be that you told her that your master was kidnapped, and you can only save him if you encounter him in the future? .

"Hmm." After hearing Chenxing's comfort, Pujin felt better. After all, it wasn't just a day or two before the master disappeared?

"Okay, we're here." Chenxing looked outside and saw that the train had stopped, so he said, "Let's go! Go eat something first, and then let's go shopping!"

"Let's go, let's go together," Alu said, patting Chenxing on the shoulder.

"Alas" Chenxing said indifferently.

Food City Center Station:

"It's really exaggerated. The Central Station has 2500 million people every day." Xiaosong was squeezed by people coming and going?

"Hurry up, Xiaosong." Alu was as tall as he was, so he squeezed out. There was like a transparent wall of air around Chenxing. No one could get within one meter of him. Pujin followed Chenxing and walked all the way. It was easy, but Komatsuto was too short, so he was left behind without paying attention for a while.

"Hey, hey, wait for me, Mr. Alu!!!" Xiaosong said while squeezing.

"It's just like a festival, just like Spring Festival travel in previous lives." Chenxing walked out in front, looking at the invisible Brother Xiaosong and the crazy flow of people behind.

"Phew, it's so scary, I finally came out." Xiaosong spent a while and finally squeezed out.

"Wow, this is the Food City, the Full City Food City! Is this my first time here?" Xiaosong said.

"First time? Aren't you the chef of a five-star hotel?" Alu said in surprise.

"I came here to take a look because I wanted to be able to stand alone in the future. After all, the food tower here is a ten-star hotel?" Xiao Song looked at the landmark food tower in the distance with envy.

"It's a pity. Although I can take you to the food tower, the target festival this time is not the canteen!" Aru said with a smile. He used to come here to eat often, and the name of the Four Heavenly Kings of Food is not Speaking of which, just by virtue of his name, you can enter and leave the food tower at will without making a reservation.

"Oh hahaha, this is the Food City! It's exactly the same as in the game!" Suddenly a strange and familiar voice came over. The four of them turned around and saw a hairy guy walking out behind. .

"Isn't this brother Zongbi?" Alu said with a smile.

"Hello, please show me your food ID card," the person at the checkpoint said.

"What Zongbi? I'm Zong Kai." Zong Kai asked for a food card, but he didn't have one. He got the chance to come to the food city through a lottery.

"Let them in!" Chenxing took out IGO's high-level card, handed it to the checkpoint staff and said, "Give them a food card."

"Okay, okay" a fat manager-looking guy ran over and looked at Chenxing and said.Alu looked at the card in Chenxing's hand and was a little surprised for a moment. You must know that not many people in IGO have this card. Only a few high-level officials have it. Even his old man Yilong, who adopted the Four Heavenly Kings, does not have this card.

The only people he knows who have this card are Mr. Ichiryu, Directors Shigematsu and Mansam, and Chief Umeda. Plus Johannes, there are only five people. But Chen Xing, an outsider, was not able to get this card?Alu didn't understand for a while.

Chapter 38

"Thank you so much, little brother." Zong Kai came over and thanked Chen Xing. He wanted to pat Chen Xing on the shoulder but found that he was not as tall as Chen Xing and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"It's okay" Chenxing didn't mind helping him.After all, this person's food luck is very high, and he may be able to use it in the future.

"Go ahead and apply for a food card. You can come here by yourself in the future. But please note that the consumption here is very high. Most people pay attention to the price." Chenxing said with a slight smile.

"This is boneless saury." While Aru and Xiaosong were eating barbecue and saury together, Chenxing brought Pujin to the ramen restaurant.

Name: concave jaw ramen

Capture Level: 4

Introduction: This is a high-end noodle made from a broth made from the bones of a concave jaw pterosaur.Noodles are made from goose eggs and noodles.Stir-fry the scallions and garlic from Vegetable Sky, pour in the air water, add the noodles, beat in the three-yolk eggs and white radish, put in a few pieces of the already braised pterosaur meat, and then add a spoonful of it. The red spicy oil, oh~ the taste is the best!Take another sip of the soup and your throat will be moisturized and full of life!In the food town, people who have never tasted this kind of noodles can hardly call themselves top gourmets.

"Well, this is delicious!" Pujin said while eating ramen.

"Yeah, if it tastes good, eat more!" Chenxing nodded and ordered two more bowls of noodles. This bowl of noodles was not enough to fill his teeth.

"..." People around watched Chen Xing keep eating. The plates on the table were piled as high as one person, and there were more than a dozen piles of plates.

"Thank you, Chenghui 100 yuan"

"Well, swipe the card." Chenxing didn't use IGO's card, but his own card.

"Let's go and continue eating from the back. You can eat whatever you want here." Chenxing looked at Pu Jin and said.

"Okay," Pujin nodded and said with a smile.

"Let's go to the gourmet department store!" After walking and eating along the way, Chenxing took Pu Jin to the gourmet department store after eating and drinking.

"What do you want to buy?" Chenxing looked at Pu Jin walking and stopping along the way, but it seemed that he didn't really want to buy anything.

"These are all the things I want to buy." Pujin showed Chenxing the things in his hand, but they were bottles and jars of things that Chenxing didn't recognize at all.

"Huh?" Chenxing suddenly felt two familiar auras.

"Alu-kun, you are so slow!" Chenxing turned around and saw a short old woman slowly walking towards Alu and Xiaosong on crutches.

"Grandma Jie, I forgot to check the time." Alu explained.

"Mr. Aru, is the Granny Setsuno you just mentioned the Granny Setsuno who is a national treasure in the world of gourmet food!" Xiao Song looked at the visitor with a face of shock?

"Sister"

"Wow, it's little Chenxing!" Setsuno was still talking to Xiaosong and Aru, when she suddenly heard a familiar name. You know, despite Setsuno's amazing cooking skills, Setsuno really doesn't have many apprentices. , Bubu counts as one, and Chenxing counts as half.

"Master...Master's wife?!!! Alas..." Alu and Xiaosong listened to Chenxing's words and saw that Granny Seteno did not deny it, which meant that it was true.No wonder Chenxing said that he used to eat at Jie Nai Canteen, but now it seems that he eats it all the time.

"Mr. Chenxing, it's so hard for you to hide it from us. We've known each other for so long but we didn't know that you were definitely the apprentice of Granny Setsuno's husband?" The more Xiaosong talked, the more he felt something was wrong: "That doesn't mean that Granny Setsuno is a master of acupuncture. Mr. Jiro’s lover?!!”

"Oh haha, you actually know Kojiro!" Granny Setsuno said shyly.

"Let's go, little Chenxing, are you going home?" Granny Setsuno saw Pujin behind Chenxing and asked: "Little Chenxing has grown up, how can he find a girlfriend so soon?!!!"

"I'm not, Setsuno-sama!!" Pujin explained with a blush, "We are just ordinary friends."

"Okay, Mistress, didn't you tell me to go back?" After paying the bill, Chenxing supported Setsuno's body and slowly walked out of the department store.

"Uh-huh..." Granny Setsuno said, "I heard from Kojiro a few days ago that I met you? How have you been lately? Are you okay? Did you eat well?"

"Yes, you should have a good meal," Chenxing nodded and said, "I also found two suitable ingredients. I will give them to you later. Can you taste them then?"

"Oh haha, wow, wow, wow." Granny Setsuno will only laugh when she meets someone she likes.

Chenxing smiled and waved to Pujin to follow. Chenxing was now somewhat aware of his abilities. The delicacies he made, or the suitable ingredients for his food demon, all contained rich life energy, which could help restore youth. Just look at Mr. Yilong and you will know.

"Mr. Alu, by the way, is Granny Setsuna always so easy to talk to?" Xiaosong followed Pujin and looked at Chenxing and Granny Setsuno in front of them and asked Alu.

"How is it possible? Although Grandma Jie has a good temper, she doesn't treat everyone like this, or maybe only people close to her are like this." Alu looked at Chenxing and said.

"Huh?" Chenxing and Setsuno, who had just walked out of the door, suddenly felt a familiar fluctuation of food energy. Chenxing thought, isn't this the kid from Tieping?Chenxing has been with Jiro and Setsuno for more than two years and has met them many times. Although he doesn't know why he never likes living with Setsuno and Jiro, he doesn't say anything.

"Let's go," said Setsuno's mother-in-law. There was nothing she could do about her grandson, but she knew that Tiehei was not disgusted with Jiro being alive, but had his own opinion. He wanted to regenerate the ingredients that had been destroyed by humans. So instead of inheriting his grandfather's mantle, he followed the regenerator Yu Tsukuru and made some achievements in these years.

"Yeah" Chenxing nodded. Since the master's wife didn't have any ideas, then he wouldn't have any either. After all, for Tieping, Chenxing actually thought it might be due to his personal senses!

"Hmm" On the contrary, Aru behind him also felt the breath emanating from Tieping, or rather smelled it. After all, Aru's nose was no joke.Aru immediately entered into battle preparations. Setsuno and Chenxing, who were walking above, felt that Aru's movements did not stop and he walked away.

Chapter 39 The Unfinished Soup of the Century

"Okay, this soup has been boiling for so long, it should be ready." Granny Setsuno stood up, walked into the kitchen, and kept stirring the soup stock that had been boiling.

Xiaosong asked Mr. Alu next to him, and Alu replied: "You will know later."

"My special menu is 'Century Soup'!" Granny Setsuno opened the lid of the soup pot, and when she read the name of the dish, she used a gruff voice to show its importance.But even without such a focused tone, Xiaosong and Aru were completely distracted by the name of the dish.

Soup of the century!Is it the soup of the century that he knew? !Komatsu's nerves about food went quickly, and he immediately put down his clenched fists and looked at Granny Setsuno in surprise.Alu, who was not good at fighting with girls, secretly felt lucky and craned his neck to look at the stove.

"Uh-oh-oh--!" Alu said incoherently.He has reserved his ultimate goal for four years!

"This... this is... the legendary soup... eh!?" Before Xiaosong could express his pure excitement, he looked at the soup pot in a daze like Alu.

After opening the lid of the pot, I saw at a glance that there seemed to be nothing inside.

"Oh, is it already so clear? It's much better than a year ago?" Chenxing looked into the pot at this time and said.He knew about this soup and had tasted it before, but Chenxing's taste told him the missing ingredients, but for some reason he told Chenxing in his heart that he couldn't tell, so Chenxing didn't say anything. Maybe this was Xiaosong's chance!

"I didn't see anything either?" Tina said.

"There is nothing, no." Pujin discovered different color changes with the vision of a regenerator.

Aru was stunned on the spot, and Xiaosong finally saw that when Granny Setsuno stirred the pot with a spoon, a faint light reflected by the light appeared in the empty pot.

Each of the rich but not greasy flavors of the ingredients has its own advantages. Just by smelling it, you can feel their respective characteristics and the fragrant aroma of each other.

The light fragrance is followed by the spicy fragrance, followed by the strong fragrance, and then the mellow fragrance... Over and over again, each fragrance is different, and they blend together invisibly to form a unique fragrance that is never cloying.

"Then I'll start too!" Alu immediately scooped up a spoonful of soup, but he was not in a hurry to drink it, but instead used his sense of smell to enjoy the delicious food.

"Ah~" he sighed contentedly.It fully concentrates the delicious taste of various ingredients, but is thick but not greasy, and feels very refreshing when it enters the throat.

"It's my first time to drink such a soup!! It's amazing! Such a clear soup is almost the same as the air water I just drank, but in an instant hundreds of ingredients poured into my nose." Alu said happily. .

"Xiaosong, Xiaosong" Alu turned around to see Xiaosong's expression, but saw Xiaosong's face was stunned, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Oh, Mr. Alu," Xiaosong said after hearing what Alu said.

"I feel like something is missing?"

"Yeah." Granny Setsuno's eyes narrowed instantly. She didn't expect anyone besides Chenxing to be able to taste this.

"Hey, is there something missing? Why didn't I taste it?" Tina and Pujin looked confused.

"I didn't taste it either?" Alu was also confused.

"Oh haha, it's normal not to taste it because you have never tasted the original century soup, so it is difficult to taste the difference." Granny Setsuno said with a smile: "After so many years, only Chenxing can taste it, young man, You’re the second one.”

"Ah, right?" Xiaosong suddenly felt shy. Being praised by Granny Nai of the Gourmet World National Treasure Festival is a recognition of his professional knowledge.

"So, Granny Setsuno, what is the missing ingredient?" Komatsu asked.

"Let's go, I'll take you to see how the soup of the century is made, and see if you can help me find out what the last missing ingredient is?" Granny Setsuno opened the floor of the kitchen, revealing a passage that went straight down. Mother-in-law Setuna was the first to go in, followed by Chenxing, and the others behind her.
