Rebirth as a Cooking God

Sumida River is a river.

The famous Sumida River Fireworks Festival is actually held on the riverside, usually with two venues.

Xia Yu, Morita Maki, Nakiri Erina, and Niito Hisako, if they have a car, they don’t need to go to Ueno Station to catch the tram. Otherwise, they will go to Ueno Station to transfer to the Ginza Line at this time. The scene of the zombie siege requires station staff Push hard at the back, and it is estimated that it is possible to squeeze into a full tram.

However, because it was a super-large midsummer festival that attracted nearly a million people, Hisako Niito drove to the Moto Asakusa 1-chome area, but encountered frequent crowds and the car was not driving smoothly.

Baiou High School is located in this chome.

Leaving aside Baiou High School, continue driving in the direction of the Sumida River for ten minutes. Finally, the group parks the car in the parking lot between the buildings, abandons the car and walks to the street outside.

Ahead, a bridge across the river was densely packed with people, and it was difficult for cars to move in the crowd.

Ahead is the Stable Bridge!

Morita Maki said to Erina, The upper reaches of the Stable Bridge is the second venue of the Fireworks Festival!

Hisako Nido is like a female bodyguard, following behind the buttocks of God's Tongue step by step. When someone pushes forward along the way, she uses her body to block Erina. Both her loyalty and ability points are max.

Erina obviously didn't have much experience in participating in a meeting of hundreds of thousands of people, and she was quite nervous. Xia Yu could observe that her palm was tightly clutching the small bag.

But amidst the tension, this young lady was full of curiosity and excitement. The side face was illuminated by the lights of the street shops, a rosy glow appeared in her white skin, and she turned her head to look at the shops along the street from time to time.

The annual rare meeting of millions of people, the shopkeepers naturally set up stalls at the entrance, and there are snacks everywhere, such as the commonly seen octopus balls, the air is filled with the scent of octopus and bonito flakes, even Xia Yu swallowed it quietly I swallowed my saliva.

Some strange snacks, such as a whole pickled cucumber soaked in ice water, cost 200 yen each. Xia Yu can imagine that when eating pickled cucumbers, the mouth will be full of sourness, coupled with the icy taste.

Sour and ice, the whole person is sour and refreshed, and the summer heat is gone, not to mention how enjoyable it is.

Small roadside snacks should not be underestimated. The combination shows the wisdom of the cook.

At this time, the police who were maintaining order on the road blew their whistles one after another.

The crowd was immediately driven to the sides, a parade drove by, and a white-haired old man, wearing strange clothes and wearing a forehead scarf with the Sumida River Chef Club on his head, crackled at the crowd with a loudspeaker Said a pass.

Nakiri Erina and Niito Hisako both stopped and listened with pricked ears.

Xia Yu and Morita Maki looked at each other and smiled.

This year's Sumidagawa Chef Association's annual gourmet award will continue as usual! Morita Maki pursed her lips.

yes!

Xia Yu shrugged.

The Sumida River Gourmet Award is actually a restaurant evaluation. The real ace restaurant is decided that night, and the evaluation is based on the voting coupons handed out to customers when the restaurant sells food. If food can easily capture customers, then restaurants will naturally have no worries about votes.

In the end, the winning restaurants will be supported by the Sumidagawa Chefs Association. The ace restaurant is not an empty title, it has a lot of gold content. For restaurants that have won awards over the years, it is certain that their business data will double in the next year.

A group of people huddled in the crowd and continued walking.

I didn't cross the Stable Bridge, but walked by the bridge, walking on the riverside of the Sumida River. The greenery here is very good.

Nearly half an hour later, the group arrived near Sumida Park.

The congestion is getting worse. The famous tourist attraction Sensoji Temple is nearby. The Japanese conversation among the crowd is gradually decreasing. From time to time, Mandarin, Korean, and English can be heard, and there are many tourists.

Xia Yu stood in front of the three girls, and walked with arms folded. When the crowd squeezed in, he just moved his shoulders and walked steadily. Whether it was intentional or not, the passers-by who were pushing this way were pushed away by an unstoppable force. open. This is the benefit of practicing martial arts, and what Xia Yu practiced was the national art of using strength to fight.

Ayu, let's stop and rest for a while!

Morita Maki cried out.

good!

Xia Yu glanced around, there were more small sparrow shops in Sensoji Temple, densely packed, he found an empty street corner, and Maki, Erina, and Fei Sazi followed behind.

Stopping and looking back, the three girls had already left with sweat on their faces.

Wait, I'll get you some cold drinks and food!

As the only male in the team, Xia Yu was self-aware, and walked away without saying a word.

Queue is too serious.

Moreover, the food may not be delicious if there are many people on the pavement. Xia Yu searched for it, but unexpectedly entered a remote alley, there were several izakayas here, and they also set up stalls outside the shops to attract the crowd to watch the firework festival.

boom!

At this time, a young man similar to Xia Yu's age, with short sleeves and shorts and a lean aura, casually placed a box full of drinks soaked in ice water beside the stall.

Seeing Xia Yu standing in front of his stall, wearing a demon fox mask, the young man raised his head and immediately showed a refreshing smile, What do you need?

Let me see.

When Xia Yu said casually, the young man froze for a moment. After identifying the voice, he realized that the guest was unexpectedly young, and the voice gave him a subtle sense of familiarity.

He couldn't help but look at Xia Yu a few more times.

Xia Yu ignored him, knelt down to choose a drink, and thought about it.

Well, Maki likes to drink green tea... What do the secretary and that tsundere like to drink? Just buy green tea together, I think no one will hate this kind of drink!

For convenience, Xia Yu picked up three bottles of green tea and placed them on the small table in the stall, then looked at the food on the table.

I didn't expect it to be very rich.

There are sushi packed in disposable lunch boxes, and there are also boxes of takoyaki.

There are rice balls, skewers, pickled cucumbers and so on.

Try it first!

Xia Yu handed the boy a coin, picked up a box of octopus balls, and put one into his mouth with the matching plastic fork. The more he chewed, the more pleasantly surprised he was, Not bad!

The octopus is very fresh! The batter is crispy yet firm. Uh, did you use minced meat, konjac, and wheat flour? It's a very traditional method. The soy sauce and tomato sauce must be unique and secret...

Hearing this, the young stall owner was slightly surprised, but only surprised.

In this food-conscious world, it is not surprising that passers-by have good food appreciation skills.

Unexpectedly, Xia Yu turned around and left with a box of octopus balls, and didn't want the three bottles of green tea drinks on the table. Just as the boy was about to put the drinks back into the ice bucket, there was the sound of chaotic footsteps from the direction of the intersection.

Looking up, it was the young guests who had just left and returned, followed by three delicate and lovely girls.

Come in and sit down.

Xia Yu said to the three of Maki, The food here is good! I can verify it myself!

Maki pursed her lips into a smile, and brought Erina and Hisako in.

The store was empty, and there were no other customers. Xia Yu was just stepping in, but his right foot was withdrawn in mid-air, as if he had sensed something, he reflexively turned his head to look at the dark part of the alley, his eyes full of vigilance.

The young store manager was taken aback.

It's okay, I saw a friend, please treat them well for me first. Xia Yu pointed to the three women who were smiling and chatting in the store, then turned and walked into the darkness.

Strange guy.

The young store manager shook his head, and then he was full of energy, However, he is right, I want to entertain every customer and satisfy them! Uesugi Izakaya cannot be lost in my hands!
