Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"You don't know either? What's going on? Where's Ah Xing?" Yu Mei asked Wen Xu, Chuang Zhen and others in the audience of "Between the Moon and the Sky".

"He's always been mysterious these days, and he's not in Jixing Liao for competition practice. He came back the afternoon before yesterday and brought a lot of ingredients. He didn't come back for the next two nights." Wen Xu said.

Because it was the final, Wen Xu also came to watch...

During the finals, a rectangular skylight will be opened on the roof of the "Between the Moon and the Sky", and the moon's moving track will be used as the time limit to pass from one end to the other, about two hours.

Of course, because the moon is needed as a time marker, the game must be played at night, and this is the true form of "Between the Moon and the Sky"!

Now on the competition stage, the positions of the three cooking tables are ready...

The reason why it is called "position" is because there are two cooking tables, which are quite satisfactory. Although the layout is different, it is also because Teruhayama Ryo and Kurokiba Ryo have prepared different tables in advance to the operation committee of the competition. It's just a tool.

But at Liu Maoxing's position, he didn't see the cooking table at all, and it took up more space than the other two. Generally speaking, it was a wooden pier in the middle. Except for the three meters around the wooden pier, the other four sides were about ten meters long. A large circle of firewood was placed... It felt like the scene of the heterosexuality being burned to death!

Yu Mei and the others were still in high spirits, and asked Chuangzhen and Yuji what kind of food Ah Xing was going to prepare.

Who knew that Chuangzhen and Yuji didn't know, and at this moment Erina and Alice hurried over, saying that Liu Maoxing didn't come to the venue at all, and the phone was turned off!

That's why there was the scene where Yu Mei hurriedly asked Xing Ping about the truth...

"What's going on with you guys! The game is about to start, and you actually said that people are missing?" Erina asked anxiously.

"Eh? Granny Wenxu and I both thought that Ah Xing was not in Jixing Liao, but just with you..." Chuangzhen said helplessly.

Erina blushed, and knew that it was the "illusion" given to them last time.

"Can Grandpa delay the time?" Alice frowned.

"Do you think it's possible? Besides, grandpa and the others can wait, can the moon in the sky wait? There are still fifteen minutes left, if he doesn't arrive again, the game will really start!" Erina said anxiously.

"Wait, when did he let you set up the venue like this?" Chuangzhen asked suddenly.

"It should have been reported to Senior Isshiki last night, what's wrong?" Erina replied.

"That is to say, at least last night, Ah Xing was still preparing for the competition normally, but in the following period, I don't know what was delayed..." Chuangzhen said.

Alice interjected at this time: "If this is your deduction, then you can move back a bit. I went to the fish market in the morning and bought a double serving of saury. It is said that Liu Maoxing called and asked him to bring it."

"Huh? Don't even have time to buy ingredients in the morning? That is to say, Ah Xing should be delayed by something now, but since he didn't take the initiative to contact us, then subjectively, he shouldn't want to abandon the game..." Chuang I really speculated.

"What's the use of saying this? Whether it's subjective abandonment or not, if he doesn't come..." Erina became a little impatient.

At this time, Kawashima Rei was also beside the operation committee members Isshiki Kei and Eiyama Etsuya, talking anxiously.

I also know that it must be Liu Maoxing's business!

Although Rei Kawashima has rich experience, this is the first time I have seen one player not present in such a large-scale event!

What Ruishan meant was to directly announce Liu Maoxing's retirement, while Yisehui played tricks, and in the end it was the commander-in-chief himself who made the decision...

Not long after, everyone finally heard Rei Kawashima's voice: "I've kept you waiting! The finals of the autumn trials will begin soon. Let's welcome the judges with warm applause!"

Some sensitive students felt that something was wrong. Usually, even if the judges were to be introduced, it was only right after the contestants...

"First of all, the chief inspector, the head of the academy, Nakiri Senzaemon-dono!"

The appearance of "The Demon King of Food" did not exceed everyone's expectations. Every year in the finals of the autumn selection competition, the head coach will personally be the judge.

"And the top of the tourism department, the chief chef of Totsuki Resort, the senior Dojima Gin!"

The chief judge of the semi-finals, Dojima Gin, also appeared in the finals...

"As for the last one, he came all the way from Denmark, the top of the Yuanyue Research Department, Your Excellency Nakiri Leonora!"

Accompanied by Kawashima Rei's introduction, a beautiful woman with snow-white skin and silver-white hair came out from the entrance.

"Huh? Mom? Why is she here? I'll go and have a look..." Alice exclaimed.

It was only then that the people in Jixing Liao realized that the visitor was indeed very similar to Alice, a beauty with white skin and white hair, but compared to Alice, Mrs. Leonora was obviously more mature and attractive, with a dignified demeanor...until Before she speaks!

Leonora's talent points are obviously all in the research of new cuisine, even better than her husband, that is, Alice's father, but not in language talent!

"The next ones are the three contestants... Two of them are the 'Dictator of the Kitchen' Kurokiba Ryo and the 'Spice Lord' Hayama Ryo!"

The appearance of Kurokiba and Ha Shanliang did not get much cheers, because the audience's attention was attracted by Liu Maoxing who was not present!

After all, the three contestants in the finals, especially Liu Maoxing in the semi-finals, still uttered such wild words...

Besides, among the various tabloids and magazines in the school, most of the three contestants in the finals are the most optimistic about Liu Maoxing.

Although many people are not happy with Liu Maoxing's arrogance, but after all, there are preliminaries and the results of the previous two rounds of the main competition. The strength Liu Maoxing has shown does seem to have an advantage...

Even the poster for the final was designed with Liu Maoxing in the middle, occupying almost half of the page, while Ha Shanliang and Kurokiba Ryo seemed to have offended the graphic designer, so they could only shrink in the lower left and right corners respectively. It looked like he was challenging Liu Maoxing.

It can be said that before the start of the competition, regardless of the official or individual, no matter how much prejudice they have against Liu Maoxing, the vast majority of people regard Liu Maoxing as the biggest favorite to win the championship!

The reason why not all of them is also because there are only two exceptions, Hayama Ryo and Kurokiba Ryo...

But now Liu Maoxing actually retired? Naturally, I don't know how much this news has caused a repercussion among the students.

Fortunately, Hei Muchangliang and Ye Shanliang are not people who care about the cheers of other people, otherwise, just because Liu Maoxing has taken the limelight with one hand and is thousands of miles away, they would have to be enemies.

And now, although Kurokiba Ryo and Ha Shanliang's faces are also very ugly, but this is because they both regarded Liu Maoxing as an imaginary enemy before, but it turned out that Liu Maoxing didn't come, so naturally they were very disappointed!

"Please be safe and calm. Although Contestant Liu Maoxing has not arrived yet, the operator of the current competition has not received news of Contestant Liu Maoxing's withdrawal! As long as he can arrive before the end, he can start cooking at any time." Rei Kawashima said.

The voices of the students' discussion became louder. If this is the case, then Liu Maoxing's privilege is too great?

At this moment, the head coach Senzaemon interjected: "However, the time for the finals is still the same! From the moment when the moon above everyone's heads is completely exposed, the competition officially begins. When the moon moves to the other side, it completely disappears." The game is over!"

Only then did everyone understand that Liu Maoxing can start at any time, but he still has to finish within the stipulated time instead of re-timed for himself...

At this time, Alice had also arrived behind the judging table, and said to Leonora: "Mom! Really, you should tell me first if you want to come!"

"It was intended as a surprise!" Leonora usually speaks Danish, so she is still very fluent.

"Really, what a surprise..." Alice said coquettishly.

"It's not for you! Where's Ah Xing?"

"...Mom, are you going to give him a fright?" Alice said helplessly.

"I'm not your father, so I'm going to kill my daughter with a knife because of...'that thing', right?" Leonora said, her tone becoming horrified.

"En?" Senzaemon turned his head when he heard that, as if he was concerned about what Leonora was saying.

The one who cared more than him was Erina, who hurriedly said, "Aunt Leonora! What are you talking about?"

"Huh? Are you so nervous? The relationship between you and Alice is really as good as when you were a child!" Leonora sighed.

"certainly not!"

"No!" The two sisters said in unison.

"Then why are you so curious..."

"Okay mom! You're here to be a judge!" Alice hurriedly stopped Leonora from continuing.

At the same time, Alice also told Leonora about the current situation... Leonora didn't quite understand what Rei Kawashima said just now!

At the same time, Liu Maoxing, who was being worried about by everyone, was still in the old school building, as if he was going to feed himself to death, he kept eating and drinking to this table full of food!

And those who are helping him to prepare the dishes are none other than Weilin, Weiling, Weiyuan, and Pleiades. The four of them are cooking the dishes as quickly as possible, and they are all the same...

"Why do we have to do this kind of thing?" Wei Ling complained.

"After all, I didn't expect to trigger such a one-in-a-million chance... No, it's a one-in-a-million chance!"

"By the way, this kid's game has already started, right?"

"Tch, to encounter such a thing, you can wake up laughing from a dream, so what do you care about the game?"

The three of them were discussing.

On the other hand, Subaru Yuan weighed the spoons and said, "Okay! Hurry up, his eating speed is already slowing down, it should be enough for each person to cook three more dishes..."
