Chief Oda won't complain

"Xiaozhi, are you still used to being a teacher?"

In the back kitchen of a western restaurant, the uncle who is also the boss, waiter and chef told me to raise my hand and turn around like a marionette.

He stretched out a pair of strong rough hands, and carefully helped me put on the apron, sleeves and transparent mask.

I answered him while cooperating: "Not bad."

This chef's equipment was eliminated by the uncle in his early years.The health regulations in the catering industry are always getting more and more detailed. In order to pass the inspection, last year the uncle reluctantly changed into a snow-white chef's uniform and a straight chef's hat.

Just looking at the fluttering appearance of his white clothes, it is difficult for anyone to think of how he sucked his belly with oily face in the early years.

On the day my uncle and I first met, the yellowed apron was tightly put on him, as if he would never take it off, as if he had been wearing it since he was born.

If the uncle depicted in the "story" was not the uncle of the earliest period, I am afraid I would not recall it now.

"Why is Xiao Zhifa so dumb? Don't make your friends wait too long. What kind of spiciness do you want, have you asked?"

The members of the reading club I brought almost filled the western restaurant, and now the sound of talking and laughing outside can be heard through the thin walls.

Feeling the unique leisure and comfort at noon, I replied: "They are all very curious about the degree of spiciness I like."

"So that's the case, then there is no need to separate the proportion of ingredients, let's start!"

Uncle and I cooperated for a long time, and after about a few movements, the unfamiliarity was eliminated and the rhythm was unified.We don't use words to communicate, and we know what kind of kitchen utensils we want as soon as we raise our hands.

This kind of cooperation can be very quiet in theory, and the only sound left in the kitchen is the "da da" sound of cutting vegetables and the "sizzling" sound of heated ingredients.But we've never actually been quiet, and it's the same this time.

"By the way, Xiaozhi, have you read the recent news? It seems that some people have difficulty defecation after eating spicy food, and finally have intestinal obstruction."

"Really……"

"It is said that doctors who love cleanliness hate patients with intestinal obstruction because they need surgery to open their intestines. Have you ever seen an open intestine? It doesn't matter if it's not human."

The uncle smashed a garlic finely. "When I was young, I saw the guts of a whole pig being gutted. That scene was tsk tsk tsk."

I put the beef tendon on the chopping board, raised the knife and replied at the same time: "I haven't seen it before."

"I haven't seen it...Although I guessed that you might not be angry, so you are not angry? We are cooking in a clean and hygienic kitchen."

As soon as he mentioned that the western restaurant had to work hard to clean the back kitchen in order to cope with the sanitation inspection, the uncle obviously became emotional and stopped his movements.

So I stopped and looked at him: "Should I be angry?"

"Ah... I don't know either."

So I tried my best to look angry: "Hey—you..."

"No need Xiaozhi, you really don't have to push yourself so hard."

The uncle waved his hands again and again, as if he had nothing to say to me, he turned his head and continued cooking. I was thinking "Is it really that reluctant?" while returning to the rhythm of cooking.

Soon the uncle found a new topic: "Some time ago, the TV station used to broadcast a fraudster who committed numerous crimes, including fraudulent marriages, what's his name?"

I recalled it, and replied, "It's called Tong Mo."

"That's right, it's Tong Mo. That kid is quite arrogant. He has been unable to prosecute because of insufficient evidence, but he suddenly disappeared recently." The uncle laughed, "I have an exclusive clue here."

"Then should we call the police?"

"It's too serious, Xiaozhi, now is the time for gossip leisure. Gossip should be gossip, don't say something that ruins the atmosphere suddenly."

Gossip time?But isn't it time to cook?

The uncle simply dismissed my proposal to call the police, and continued to gossip with me: "It is said that before Tong Mo disappeared, he was talking to a girl with pink and green hair, and the girl yelled, "I found out that you are lying!" What happened after that I don't know.What do you think?Girls with pink and green hair are rare. "

"It's a student from the nearby Art University."

"Huh, you know?"

"Sometimes you will encounter them while walking on the road."

"Haven't you talked to anyone?"

"No……"

The uncle glanced at me, and sighed deeply: "Forget it, let's change the topic. Let me think about it, yes, I heard that we have a terrible mysterious weirdo here who specializes in harassing 16-year-old girls. A superb shadow clone technique!"

"It's not a shadow clone technique, it's triplets."

"how do you know?"

"My student Tanjiro is very concerned about this matter and has been investigating it. I have heard his reasoning and think it makes sense."

"Is that so... I suddenly feel that being a teacher is not easy for you."

The two of us chatted in this way until the meal was ready.After that, everyone had a lively curry eating competition.

My favorite spicy curry beats almost everyone.But everyone is clearly grinning their teeth and trying to fill their mouths with food. Some people will not give up even if they are sweating and sucking cold air. It seems that if they eat less, they will lose everything on the journey of life.

"You all like to eat so much?" The uncle greeted everyone with a smile, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm full here, and I can add more if I don't have enough."

I also picked up a plate and started eating.

As soon as you touch the tip of your tongue, you can feel the sublimation of your soul.

It is extremely delicious that bursts strongly in the taste buds.

It is the most insane fragrance of billions in the world.

I almost couldn't wait to take my second bite, and then realized that I was ridiculously impatient like a drug addict.

"Xiaozhi, how does it taste?"

"The same as in the past."

"Is there nothing you want to express?"

I closed my eyes and realized it carefully, feeling that I had made a new discovery about the truth of the world.

When I opened my eyes again, tears filled my eyes, and I solemnly expressed my true heart word by word like an oath: "Curry is better if it is spicy."

By the time we left after lunch, all of us were drunk.

Inosuke ate the most, his belly swelled, and it became difficult to lift his feet, so he was supported by Tanjiro and Zenitsu to walk.

The uncle was very worried about Inosuke's intestinal obstruction, so he specially took some digestive medicine and hawthorn pills for him.

Even so, the young man himself, who was deeply worried, was not afraid at all, and continued to shout: "I won! I won all of you! Hahaha!"

Hijikata and Sougo became playful during the lunch, and smeared curry on each other's faces. Hasegawa was also affected because he was sitting close to each other, and a sticky unknown substance appeared on his hair.

As for Sakata Dazai and the others, they are probably really people who can't eat spicy food, and they are still sticking out their tongues in "Has-has-".

In the end, only the girls remained decent. They stopped eating when they could accept it, and they looked rosy and even better than before.

Xingyue smiled and said, "I'm very satisfied, like checking in at a famous scenic spot."

I asked her: "You often travel across the world, but can't you eat?"

Xingyue smiled and asked me back: "What does Uncle Odasaku think?"

"Is there no such western restaurant in your own world?" I glanced at Xingyue's rhetorical question and asked further.

"Hey... yes, but the address has been changed." Xingyue gave me a thumbs up.

"I understand. Uncle Odasaku wants to ask me, is there you in my world? Yes, Uncle Dazai and Uncle Sakaguchi also have them. Everyone is my elder and takes good care of me. Much older than everyone in this world."

The question that has been lingering in my heart has finally been answered.

In this way, Xingyue's inexplicably familiar attitude at the beginning made sense.

Then I remembered another message that Xingyue told me before: I am unique in this life, and I have never been a killer.

Why does not being a killer become an important screening condition?

Couldn't there be a sky sign posted at the entrance somewhere that says "Sakunosuke Oda, who has killed people, is forbidden to enter"?

At least from Xingyue, I don't see this tendency towards moral requirements. When she talks about her uncle Odasaku in her own world, her attitude is obviously close.And the me in that world must have been a killer once.

New questions were brewing in my mind, and I couldn't wait to read the "story".

I think the reason why Xingyue recognized me and emphasized that I am "unique" must be in the following article.

"Xiao Zhi, are you going to leave with your friends now? It's hard to be so lively." The uncle stood at the entrance of the western restaurant to see him off, with a look of reluctance.

I nod...

"Then...if you encounter any troubles, just come to me, and I will make curry for you alone."

The uncle scratched the chef's hat and imprinted an oily fingerprint on it: "I'm not sure, but it feels like you have something on your mind today. It doesn't seem to be about work, nor about emotion."

He realized that his hat was dirty with his hands, and quickly put his hands behind his back, grinning at me honestly.

"Actually, I can't help you whether it's work or emotional problems. If you're constipated, I can introduce you to a good hospital. Anyway, one thing I'm confident about is that I can do something to make Xiaozhi eat happily. curry."

"So Xiaozhi, if you ever want to eat curry, just come to me."

The author has something to say: Hattori: Compared with constipation, I think hemorrhoids are more tormenting.

This one is to make up for yesterday, and there will be an update at night, which is today.
