Chapter 116 Trance
London took the knife and peeled a potato with just six strokes.
She has superb knife skills.
"Sister's knife skills are still so great..." Shropshire cares about his sister more than anyone else, because this is not an ordinary cooking, but a test that involves whether his sister can continue to control the cafeteria.
"Don't make a fuss about it, Shropshire. It's nothing." London was very humble.
Only Su Xia stood by, watching London push aside the potato peels, which might have weighed several pounds in total, and the originally big potato, which had turned into a rectangle not much bigger than a duck egg. She felt a little complicated.
Su Xia asked himself if he was usually very wasteful, but now compared to London, he was nothing compared to him. He couldn't help but ask, "Um, London, do you usually peel like this?"
"Any questions?"
Su Xia hesitated to speak.
London spoke up and said, "Admiral, please don't keep interrupting me. You must be attentive and focused when cooking. This is the secret to my cooking success. Any distraction or a trembling hand may cause the taste of the dish to change."
"Okay..." Su Xia said that the issue of waste could be brought up later. He was worried that he was being nosy now. What if London used this as an excuse to say that her cooking failed because he kept interrupting her and insisted on having it done again?
There is another reason. For a large baby cabbage, tear off the five outer leaves first. Since I only like to eat the leaves, I don't want to eat the white part. For an eggplant, cut off the head and tail with two cuts, and then I will take away one-third directly. Su Xia is used to wasting food when cooking, so she really doesn't have the confidence to lecture London.
People like Yisen, Fuso, and Shokaku are gentle sisters and Yamato Nadeshiko in people's thoughts and wishes, so they know all kinds of cooking skills as soon as they appear. Others must learn after birth to master cooking. L20 is not born with cooking skills. She just joined the tutelary fort and has no time or interest in learning cooking. Even so, she knows it.
"Admiral, look at London adding salt one spoonful at a time and pouring soy sauce like pouring water... Is there really no problem?" L20 whispered. Even if you haven't eaten pork, you have seen a pig run.
"Don't panic." Su Xia said, just for the time being. He was a culinary expert and knew how terrible the way London added seasoning was. He was actually much more panicked than L20 .
"Well, that..." Although Su Xia had agreed not to speak again, he couldn't help it. It was okay to waste a little, but this was different, after all, he was going to eat it.
"Shh!" London didn't respond, concentrating on cooking. Shropshire put a finger on his lips and said, "Sister is concentrating on cooking, don't worry, Admiral."
L20 tugged at Su Xia's clothes and whispered, "Admiral, I'm scared."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay, I'm here, you'll be fine." Su Xia smiled. As an admiral, how could he be afraid? Even if he was afraid, he had to pretend to be fearless.
Finally, London's food was served.
Su Xia looked at the indescribable dish, her SAN value at risk: "Is this a home-cooked meal?"
"Yeah, it's a home-cooked meal." London said, "Does stir-fried pork with shredded potatoes count as a home-cooked meal? I just turned the pork into squid legs."
“Why turn pork into squid feet.”
"Innovation. Innovation is what I'm best at." London said, "I've had a lot of fried pork with shredded potatoes, but this is probably the first time I've had fried squid feet with shredded potatoes."
"Why is it black?"
"Soy sauce." London said excitedly, "I added soy sauce."
I know you added soy sauce, even if you added soy sauce...Su Xia wanted to continue.
"Admiral, I'll get you some chopsticks." Shropshire was very considerate, "You're welcome, Admiral."
"You're welcome." Su Xia said. He took the chopsticks but was reluctant to start.
After traveling to another world and becoming an admiral, I'm afraid I can never go back. Although I'm worried, I'm actually a little happy. After all, there are so many lovely ship girls accompanying me, and I can enjoy so many things without any effort. In any case, I can stay here or go back, but I must not die here.
"Admiral, please finish your meal." London took off her chef's hat and let her blond hair fall down to her shoulders. She took off her apron, revealing her full breasts. She was a lovely girl. She sat opposite Su Xia, holding her face with both hands, "Don't say it's unpalatable after taking a bite, like other people... prejudiced."
"Okay." Su Xia said.
"Eat quickly," London urged.
"Eat it, I'll eat it." Su Xia glanced at L20, "Shropshire, bring another plate."
"Why take a plate?" asked Shropshire.
"L20 also wants to eat, so she and I will eat separately." Su Xia said, we should share the difficulties.
"I, I just won't..." L20 hesitated.
Su Xia smiled: "Don't be embarrassed, L20."
London smiled, "Don't bother, Admiral... I've prepared some for L20, too, so everyone can have one. Bring it up Shropshire, L20's portion."
So, L20 also had a plate of fried squid feet with shredded potatoes.
Su Xia looked at L20, and L20 looked at him, but neither of them touched their chopsticks.
Su Xia took the initiative to eat the potato shreds with a chopstick. He had been keeping a close eye on London to make sure she didn't put anything weird in the food. He was ready. At worst, he would have a strange taste in his mouth. He just ate it.
Anyway, at most it's just unpalatable and can't pose a threat to your life.
Su Xia finished eating and pursed her lips.
London asked, "What do you think of my cooking, Admiral?"
"Isn't it wonderful?" Shropshire asked.
"How do you say it?" Su Xia didn't want to say anything unpleasant, so there was nothing to say. In fact, there was no way to describe the taste. Moreover, if it was unpalatable, how could I coax L20 to eat a little? I couldn't suffer alone. "It was very impactful."
London smiled modestly.
"Admiral, you believe it now, my sister's cooking is amazing." Shropshire said as a matter of course.
“No way…” L20 stared at the dish of fried squid feet with shredded potatoes with a doubtful expression. Could it be that it just didn’t look appetizing?
"Eat more, Admiral." London said, "I like to see the Admiral eat my food."
Su Xia took another bite.
…
"Brother Su, Brother Su, jump, jump quickly, what are you afraid of?"
This is the sound coming from the river.
"Are you going to jump or not? If not, get down. I'll jump first."
This is the voice coming from behind.
Su Xia saw it.
A former playmate, who looked about ten years old, was not a fat guy in his twenties and weighed nearly 200 pounds. Another person was also very familiar, but he couldn't remember his name. He remembered that they separated after junior high school, and later they were just nodding acquaintances.
Su Xia looked around. He was standing on a crooked tree. Under the tree was the turquoise river. Behind him was a skinny little boy wearing only underwear. He looked so familiar. What was his name?
Which is this place... the river bend where I often bathed when I was a kid, because there is a tree here that is perfect for diving. I also came here for picnics, and I remember one time when someone let the fish they were going to cook run away. I remember that this place is no longer suitable for bathing, because someone is digging sand on the shore, and the good river bank has become a mess.
"What are you looking at? Are you going to jump or not? I pushed you."
Su Xia jumped down from the tree.
…
"Xiao Su, so many points?"
Su Xia blinked her eyes. This place... was the classroom in junior high school. It was located on the third floor of the teaching building, next to the computer room. There was a computer class every week. Everyone liked to play the frog jumping into the river game in class. Some people also liked... what was that game called, beating up the kids?
Su Xia lowered her head. There were many words carved on the desk with a knife. There was a test paper on it, a Chinese test paper.
I can't remember the name of my deskmate at all.
Su Xia remembered that he was bullied in school when he was in junior high school, and chicken bones were stuffed under his pillow. But later, he became friends with those bullies for no apparent reason. What the hell? Anyway, he was never bullied again, and he still had a chance to bully others.
Su Xia subconsciously looked at the girl in the middle of the classroom.
That girl is not his goddess, but... she is clearly reading novels in class, ranked first in the county in the middle school entrance examination and entered the key high school in the region, and is said to have entered the best university in the country in the college entrance examination. Really, how does the saying go, the gap between people is greater than that between people and dogs.
"What have you been looking at? So many points?"
Su Xia smiled, he remembered the name of his deskmate.
…
"Su, how many levels has your thief reached?"
"Yesterday I asked someone to take me to Shadowfang... I can go to Scarlet Monastery at level 22 and become an experience treasure."
"I plan to sell a point card, one point card is 30 yuan for 1500G, and directly hire someone to take Stratholme to level 58, and then go to Outland to level up slowly."
"What are you looking at me for?"
"Want to stay overnight tonight?"
…
Su Xia looked around, wondering where this place was. Fragmented photos were flying and shuttling in the darkness.
In those photos. He sat on the steps in front of the canteen in junior high school. The cafeteria in high school. The auditorium in high school. He picked up an owl in the flower garden in elementary school. He was the leader of the Young Pioneers in elementary school and held a red flag. He hid under the quilt to read novels in junior high school. His first job after graduating from college...
Su Xia wanted to wave his hands, feeling that he was no longer under his control.
…
Away from the big dining hall, in the pretty garden.
"What did you say? Say it again."
"This morning, the admiral suddenly came to the office and wanted us to investigate the cafeteria. Is the cafeteria accessible? I certainly wouldn't go there. When I returned to the office, the admiral and L20 were gone... I suspect they went to the cafeteria."
"I know..." The beautiful blonde woman with a big bust put her phone down with a heavy heart, and she habitually tied up her hair. "Fight back. Call London immediately and tell her to take it easy. Otherwise..."
"What happened?" the maid asked while talking on the phone.
"The Admiral and L20 went to the cafeteria."
"Why did they go to the cafeteria?"
"I heard from the Victory that the Admiral wants to investigate the situation in the Great Mess Hall. I guess he wants to evacuate London."
Beep, beep, beep——
The call lasted for a long time, and the maid said, "No one answered... If London was cooking, the sound of the range hood and the sound of frying food might not be heard."
"Then call Shropshire. She should be with her sister... Whether anyone answers or not, let's go there first and hope nothing happens."
The flat-chested blonde was sitting not far away, but she couldn't hear the conversation between the master and the servant. She just saw that they seemed very anxious, so she asked, "What happened? Why are you so anxious?"
"The Admiral and L20 went to the cafeteria."
Clang——
The sound of a red teacup falling to the ground.
