The Trickster's Ninth Episode

No matter how long it has passed, Amamiya Ren can't get used to this kind of setting, rice noodles or something, it's too scary.

Speaking of yakisoba bread, generally speaking, the yakisoba noodles in the yakisoba bread sold in the school are sweet, regardless of the noodles and noodles, the sweet yakisoba noodles Amemiya Ren does not like it very much.

"Then I'll go with you guys to buy fried noodles and bread, and then what? Go to the manga studio after eating in the atrium? Speaking of Jinghua, what do you plan to arrange today?" Yu Gonglian asked the two of them with her satchel on her back.

Amameiya Ren and Parry are definitely going to the Manga Research Institute. It's still early for Jinghua, so they definitely don't need to go to cram school, it depends on his own plan.

"No!" Parry immediately refused after hearing Amamiya Ren's words. "Three boys go to the atrium for lunch, don't think about such a cruel thing! At this time, the atrium must be full of couples, just staying there will be affected by the sour smell of love."

"...Then, is it still the cafeteria?" Yu Gonglian was a little speechless, but he didn't care about it.But Parry doesn't want to go, so it's better to change places.

"It's better to go to the activity room." Parry said as a matter of course.

"Uh... It's not good to go to the activity room to eat." Amamiya Ren frowned, eating indoors will inevitably smell, especially since he brought a heating pack today, the smell of hot food It's much better than cold food.

"It doesn't matter! Usually, everyone in the club brings bento to eat on Saturdays. Sometimes the group catches up with work, and they will directly make instant noodles in the activity room." Parry waved his hand to indicate that it doesn't matter. "Just ventilate after eating."

It’s okay to eat instant noodles together, you are worthy of drawing comics.

"Since you said that, then that's fine, what about Jinghua? Do you want to go with me too?" Yu Gonglian looked at Jinghua.

"This cheeky guy followed me to the club not once or twice on Saturday, you don't have to worry about him." Parry waved his hand. People are familiar.

"Hmph! How could I leave without eating Yugong's bento today?" Jinghua smiled knowingly at Pali, then looked teasingly at Yugonglian and said. "Is it convenient for Fang to reveal what the main course is today?"

"Sparse ribs." Amamiya Ren's expression remained unchanged. Before he came to Mitsusaka, when he was still in his previous school, he was already used to being prostituted for his lunch.

"Is it spicy?"

"Sweet."

"...Sweet and sour pork ribs?!" Jinghua suddenly regained his energy.

The popularity of sweet and sour pork ribs in Japan is slightly lower than that of mapo tofu.

The most important thing is that this dish is not spicy, and while it is famous, there are more people who like it than mapo tofu.

"Amiyalian, did you cook sweet and sour pork ribs today?" Parry also looked at Yugonglian in surprise. "Aren't you a spicy party?"

"I just prefer spicy food. It's not that I can't eat non-spicy food, and I'm not hostile to sweet food. As long as it tastes good, I will do anything." Yu Gonglian shrugged and said.

After all, he is a loyal [Taste Pie], the so-called [Taste Pie], to put it bluntly, isn’t it just to satisfy his picky eating desire?

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up, let's go to the activity room." Parry made no secret of his expectation, and the chow mein bread in his hand suddenly became stale.

Ugonglian's main dishes are rarely non-spicy. Although they are delicious even if they are spicy, their long-term eating habits have made the two of them have a soft spot for sweet and sour pork ribs.

Like all foreign cuisines in this country, it is said that foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures.In Japan, Chinese food is very expensive, it’s just expensive, and the craftsmanship may not be good.What you can eat for 100 RMB in Japan may not be as comfortable as a 40 RMB meal in China.

Yu Gonglian's craftsmanship + Chinese famous dishes, they dare not touch the mapo tofu last time, but this time they can eat it, and the expectations are quite high.

Speaking of Jinghua Pali, one left and one right, the two put their hands on Yu Gonglian's shoulders, and then accelerated their walking speed.

"Wait! Don't push me!" Yu Gonglian could only speed up along with them helplessly. He suspected that if it wasn't for his height, he might be dragged away by these two guys.

Jinghua and Parry couldn't wait to bring Amamiya Ren to the Manyan Club activity room, and then saw Inuyama Tamaki, Kagura Nana, and Hyakki Ayame in the activity room.

Before coming here, Jinghua and Parry went to the cafeteria to buy a fried noodle bread, so they came a little late.

"Huh? Classmate Jinghua, didn't Xie La-chan come today?" Kagura Nana said after seeing Jinghua.

As I said before, Jinghua would occasionally come to Manyan Club, and usually he and Sheila came together. After all, Parry was not in the first class, and he would not go all the way.Others paint and study, but when Jinghua comes here, sometimes he will study, and sometimes he will write a novel about his [Mechanical Project] fan project.

After all, he has not given up on his dream of becoming a creator.

"Sheila, if she has something to do today, she probably won't come over." Jinghua responded.

"Senior Inuyama, Parry told us to come to the activity room for lunch, can we really eat indoors?" Ren Amamiya was still a little confused, so she asked Inuyama Tamaki again.

"It's okay, we haven't had lunch yet! We'll eat bento here later." Inuyama Yuji said carelessly.

"That's good." Yu Gonglian nodded.

Finally, under the urging eyes of Jinghua and Parry, he took out his lunch box.

Chapter 68 A long detour is my shortest shortcut

"Eh? Amamiya-san is actually the type who can bring bento!" Inuyama Tamaki looked at Amamiya Ren and said with some surprise.

Because there is a cafeteria in Mitsusaka, compared with other schools, there are fewer students who bring their own bento, especially boys.

It’s okay if there are parents to help make bento. Parents are busy, so they usually choose to go directly to the cafeteria.The situation of girls is better, after all, the bridal practice is there, and making bento is also one of the items of bridal practice!

"Ah... because I think it's troublesome to go to the cafeteria to grab food." Amamiya Lian explained after hearing this.

"Did you do it yourself?"

"Yes, after all, in my current situation, I live with my current guardian. I'm sorry to always bother the guardian." When Yu Gonglian was at home, she would occasionally be lazy and eat the dishes cooked by her mother.

While speaking, Yu Gonglian pushed Jinghua and Parry away a little.

"Don't stand so close. My bento box today has an extra process compared to usual. If you stand too close, it may be dangerous." Yu Gonglian persuaded.

"Nani?!" Jinghua and Pali looked at Amamelian in bewilderment. How could a bento box cause danger?

"You'll know when you stand aside and look at it." Umiya Ren said as she unwrapped the bento box.

The so-called extra process is actually heating with a self-heating bag.

The so-called self-heating pack is actually quicklime, sodium carbonate and some mineral powders. Water is added to react with quicklime and sodium carbonate to release a large amount of heat, and then the mineral powder inside forms a primary battery for further continuous discharge. hot.

This kind of thing is convenient, but you should be careful when using it. This chemical reaction will produce a lot of water vapor, and it may burn you if you mess it up.And pay attention to the ventilation when heating. After all, the bento box is not specially made for the heating bag. If this thing is pressed in an airtight environment and heated, it may explode.As for Ren Amamiya, he specially opened two ventilation holes at the bottom of the bento box.

Tear off the package of the self-heating bag on the bottom layer, then add water that is just enough to cover the package, and put the other layers of the bento box back one by one to cover.

"What are you doing? Amamiya, the bento box is smoking!" Parry looked at the bento box that was emitting white gas, and took half a step back.

Jinghua and Parry were still dazed by the danger that Amamiya Ren said, and then they saw that there were two ventilation holes at the bottom of Amamiya Ren's lunch box, and water vapor escaped from it.

"Heat it up!" Yu Gonglian said. "At the end of the day, you should also know that Chinese cuisine is better served hot. So I bought this portable heating pack on Amazon, and I just got it yesterday. You will see it often in the future."

"It's amazing, can you even do this kind of thing?" Jinghua sighed beside him.

For the two of them who live in the cafeteria, making bento by themselves is fine, and they also bring portable heating props, which is really too delicate.

Indeed, in Japan, which has long been accustomed to cold food, no one would normally make a heating pack for a lunch box.So such an abnormal behavior naturally attracted the attention of the girls group.

"Hello! Seniors... what is this?!" The door of the activity room was open. As soon as Shigure Hagorome entered, he saw white water vapor everywhere in a small corner of the room. The three boys Standing there is like doing a chemical experiment.

"Amiya-san, are you... processing bento?" Inuyama Tamaki looked puzzled.

Ren Amamiya didn't lower her voice when explaining to Jinghua Parry just now, so Yuki Inuyama probably heard the situation, but this behavior is still too contrary to common sense.

"Sorry Inuyama-senpai, this is just pure water vapor, it will dissipate soon after the heating is completed, and it is harmless to the human body." Amamiya Ren explained.The water vapor from the reaction in the heat pack will be slightly alkaline to some extent, but it's really not harmful.

Of course, even then, don't drink that stuff.

The self-heating bag heats up quickly, and it will be ready in a few minutes. After finishing, Amamiya Ren opened the lid of the bento box, and then took off the two layers on the top, one layer is mapo tofu and rice, and the other layer is sweet and sour pork ribs and Egg-skin meat rolls are steaming hot.

"This is sweet and sour pork ribs. My taste is sweeter, so there is less vinegar. It may be a little hot now, so be careful if you want to eat it." Yu Gonglian said.

"Oh oh oh! Thank you very much." Jinghua thanked Amamiya Ren, but he didn't do anything. He was too embarrassed to move his chopsticks in front of the bento owner, but he had already taken out his tableware.

The same goes for Parry next to him.

Being used to cold food does not mean that you like cold food. After all, hot food has more charm than cold food - the aroma is tangy and quite appetizing.

As for the girls group next to them, since the boys group had already prepared lunch, they each took out their own lunch boxes.As a result, it was inevitable that the smell of Ren Amamiya's bento attracted his attention.

The scent of Yu Gonglian is indeed very attractive, but after all, the girls still have a basic reserve, and there is no way to be as cheeky as Jinghua Pali.

"Amiya-san...is he still a cooking expert?" Inuyama Tamaki looked at Ren Amamiya with a "terrible" expression.

"Huh? No such thing, I just like Chinese cuisine. As for the heating pack, it's just a little cleverness." Amamiya Ren said lightly. "It's the bentos of senior, Kagura-san, Hyakki-san and Shigure-san, they all look exquisite! If..."

Halfway through the conversation, Yu Gonglian suddenly paused. He originally wanted to say that if you are interested, you can come and try it.Anyway, he has been used to whoring for nothing.However, girls should be more sensitive to this aspect.

So Amamiya Ren raised her eyebrows, looked towards the girl group, then said with a tentative smile, "If you don't mind, would you like to exchange side dishes?"

"Is it okay?" Inuyama Yuhime's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"Of course, there is no reason to be unhappy that the dishes I cook can be recognized by others."

So Amamiya Ren exchanged for an octopus sausage from Inuyama Tamaki, and a purple potato ball from Shigure Hagoromo.

Amamiya Ren intends to return to her place after a symbolic food exchange, and has no intention of getting together with the girl group to eat bento, which will inevitably embarrass Jinghua and Parry.

Then came Hyakki Ayame, the familiarity between Hyakki and Ren Amamiya is far from that of everyone in Manyan Club, it can almost be said that they are still strangers, although Hyakki Ayame is also interested in Amamiya Ren's Chinese cuisine, But things like swapping side dishes were too embarrassing for her.

But now the atmosphere is still there. If everyone exchanges and she is the only one who doesn't, it seems that she doesn't fit in.

Yu Gonglian looked at Miss Baigui calmly, and could see the embarrassment and distance displayed by the other party at a glance, so she deliberately smiled and said: "Yeah~ As a boy, if the dishes you make are interesting to girls, Sure enough, there is still a sense of vanity! Inuyama-senpai."

"Will Amamiya-san be embarrassed too?" Inuyama Yuhime, who is as human as a human being, naturally noticed the strange atmosphere, and continued following what Amamiya Ren said.

"Of course. However, rather than being embarrassed, I really care more about whether my craftsmanship can be recognized." Amamiya Ren continued what Inuyama Yuhime said. "I am ashamed to say that I am self-taught in Chinese cuisine, and I have never had any reference. I can only ponder it based on my own taste. This opportunity is rare. I also want to hear more about other people's thoughts on these dishes."

"So maybe it's a bit impolite, but can you ask Kagura-san and Hyakki-san to exchange side dishes with me and taste it? If it's convenient, I would be very grateful if you could add a comment."

Although Kagura Nana was included in the words, Ren Amamiya's words were mainly addressed to Hyakki Ayame.

After hearing the words, Hyakki Ayame raised her head and shifted her gaze from her lunch box to Amamiya Ren, and then found that the other party was smiling and looking at her, and couldn't help but blush.

However, Ren Amameiya's polite words like detours just now seem to have played a little role, slightly relieving the embarrassment and rejection in the hearts of some Hyakki Ayame.

"Then, I'm sorry." Hyakki Ayame blushed and said as she pushed her lunch box forward a little.

Chapter 69

What Ren Amamiya got from Hyakki Ayame was tempura.

Hyakki Ayame's bento was unexpectedly luxurious, so luxurious that Ren Amamiya felt that she was taking advantage of others.But in the end, I decided to choose a piece of tempura without grinding.

It is a relatively common prawn tempura, the batter is not thick, the oil is well drained, and the color is orange and red, very beautiful.

Just from this appearance, Ren Amamiya can tell that the skill of the person who made this dish is not bad. If this tempura is made by Hyakki Ayame herself, then it is really quite a skill.

"Hyakki-san's bento, did you make it yourself?" Amamiyalian asked.

"Ah! That...is actually made by the chef at home, I can't be so good." Hyakki Ayame quickly denied.

"The chef at home? With this level of cooking skills, could it be said that Hyakki-san is the lady of a rich family?" Ren Amamiya sighed and put the tempura in her mouth.

The batter is not crispy, it is fried just right, the meringue is soft, and the texture and taste are almost perfect.The only downside is that it took a long time to store, because it is a bento box, so it is reasonable to have this problem.
