Start a core cabin

Tonight, the kitchen of Duanmuhuai's house was extremely lively.

In order to celebrate Kurokawa Akane moving next door, everyone planned to have a dinner. It was supposed to be like this...

"Miss Akane, today is to celebrate your move in, so leave the cooking to me."

Mai Sakurajima was smiling, holding a kitchen knife in her hand, and looked at Akane Kurokawa next to her with a smile.

"You don't need to worry, Miss Mai."

And Kurokawa Akane is also wearing an apron at the moment, smiling, like a good wife and mother.

"As a neighbor, I should also show off my craftsmanship to the kids."

"But I've been the one doing the cooking. You don't know much about their preferences, do you?"

"It doesn't matter, I have confidence in my craftsmanship! Xiao Ai and Ruby will definitely like my cooking!"

"………………Sister, what’s going on over there?"

Sitting on the sofa, Ruby looked at Duanmuhuai quietly and asked.

"Watch your TV and don't worry about anything. It has nothing to do with us."

Duanmu Huai was sitting on the sofa, reading the newspaper in his hand, as if he didn't care about anything outside the window and only read books by sages.

"Ah, oh......"

What could Ruby say? I can only watch TV obediently.

Thanks to this, today’s dinner is very rich. There are not only potato stew made by Mai, miso soup, and tempura. There are also hamburger steaks, fried chicken nuggets, and omelette rice made by Akane...

What else can Duanmuhuai do about this?

There is only one way.

"Hey...that's why Xiao Ai, your lunch today is so rich."

Nanami stretched out her chopsticks, picked up a piece of hamburger steak, and happily stuffed it into her mouth.

"Wow, it's so delicious——!"

"You can eat whatever you want, I can't finish it anyway."

Duanmu Huai lay on the table with a tired look on his face. Ruby was faced with so many dishes last night. She only ate a few bites and then fled back to her room on the pretext that her idol needed to maintain her body shape. In fact, who here didn't need to maintain their body shape?

As a result, Mai Sakurajima and Akane Kurokawa seemed to be competing and did more than usual, so that the lunch box Duanmu Huai brought to school today was three stories high.

Duanmu Huai was obviously brought here for only one purpose, and that was to hand it over to a guy who could handle this.

Well, of course it’s Nanami.

By the way, the money that Banai owed Duan Muhuai had been repaid in the form of lunch before the summer vacation.

"Is this made by Miss Sakurajima and Miss Kurokawa? They actually know how to cook. It's really unexpected, and it's so delicious. Hehehe, if the boys in the class knew about it, they would be jealous to death. "

"Don't tell anyone."

"Of course not. This isn't enough for me, and it won't be enough if I share it with others."

"………………These are not enough."

Chitanda held her chopsticks and looked at the three-tiered lunch box in front of her with a confused look on her face.

"Xingna-san, is it really okay for you to eat so much? Aren't you trying to lose weight?"

"certainly."

Hearing Chitanda's question, Yana raised his head proudly and picked up his chopsticks.

"Of course I have my reasons."

"What's the point?"

"Ms. Sakurajima and Ms. Kurokawa are both famous entertainers, right?"

"That's right."

"And their figures are well managed."

"That's right."

"So, since they manage their figures so well, it means that the food they cook will also maintain their figures and they will not gain weight easily! QED, proof completed!"

While talking, Yanami picked up another rice ball and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

"Since they won't get fat after eating, then neither will I!"

"……………………"

Chitanda looked at Nanami in confusion, and then looked at Duanmu Huai, who spread his hands.

"If you think it makes sense, then it makes sense."

"Ah, um...then...I'm not welcome..."

Judging from this, it is only a matter of time before Chitanda adds weight loss to her schedule.

"Speaking of which, how was the cultural festival before? I heard it was very popular?"

Duanmu Huai asked casually while eating lunch. It was originally a cultural festival a few days ago, and Duanmu Huai was scheduled to participate. Later, the body swap between Sakurajima Mai and Toyohama Kazuka happened, so Duanmuhuai could only focus on this side first and ignore the cultural festival.

As for the manuscript for the magazine, Duanmuhuai really found it troublesome, so he wrote a horror story about food that he had heard on a certain movie crew before and handed it in, then ignored it.

By the time he came back from finishing things with Sakurajima Mai, the cultural festival would naturally be over.

After all, the cultural festival can’t wait for Duanmuhuai, right?

However, Duan Muhuai still participated in the arrangement of the cultural festival, because there were only three people in the Classical Department, and Yana had to take care of the cultural performance of the class that day. It can be said that only Chitanda would be left in the activity room of the Classical Department that day. , so after discussing it, the three decided to transform the Classical Department room into a lounge-like place. After all, there will definitely be many people visiting on the day of the cultural festival, and they will need a place to rest when they are tired.

Then the Classics Department can be directly converted into a lounge, where these people can rest, taste delicious food, and appreciate their research on food and classical literature. In this way, Chitanda does not need to do anything, as long as he is responsible for the cashier and Just sell social publications.

Most of the work of arranging the department rooms was done by Duanmu Huai, after all, he was very strong, but it was Hanami and Chitanda's job to arrange the research reports and post them on the wall.

"Hmm."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Bana proudly raised his head and raised his chest.

“Very successful!”

"oh?"

Next, with Banai's gesticulating explanation, Duanmu Huai also learned about the situation of the day.

Basically, it was as expected. Many parents brought their children and used the classical department as a lounge. After all, there were free refreshments and various delicacies with corresponding classical stories. , not only that, the research report on the wall also noted those gourmet restaurants. This made the parents very interested. They even asked Chitanda specifically. After learning that they had been to these stores and investigated them personally, they were also very interested in some of the stores. They took photos and planned to go there in the future. Give it a try.

As for those social magazines, they were all sold out, and in the cultural festival questionnaire, the Classical Department was ranked in the top five. Even the teacher praised them, so it can be considered a great success.

"So, I think we can start thinking about the next club activities!"

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"What do you think?"

Hanakami had obviously gained confidence from the success of this cultural festival, and was very proud at the moment. Duanmu Huai was eating the omelette rice made by Kurokawa Akane himself, and asked at the same time.

"Hehehe, this time, Airu and I discussed it and decided that the research topic for our next part will be——Ghost Story!"

"Strange story? Why?"

This topic is not strange, but it is very strange for Banajian to bring it up. Based on Duanmu Huai's understanding of Banajian, she is not someone who is interested in ghost stories or anything like that.

"It's simple."

"Well, you say."

Duanmu Huai put down his tea cup and planned to listen to Banami's talk.

"After reading the manuscript submitted by Xiao Ai, I realized that there are actually many weird stories in classical literature, right?"

"That's right."

Just like China has Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, Japan also has many similar ancient ghost stories.

"For example, Koizumi Yakumo's raccoon dog, even I know about it."

"Well, it's a household name."

Koizumi Yakumo's "Raccoon Dog" is indeed a well-known weird story in Japan. It tells the story of a businessman in ancient times who came home late at night and saw a woman squatting there crying on the side of the road, as if she was about to drown herself in the river, so he became concerned. He stepped forward to ask, but when the woman turned her head, the businessman was surprised to find that the woman's face had no facial features and was as bare as a goose egg. He was so frightened that he ran away. Then he met a stall selling soba noodles in front of him. The businessman rushed over and told the stall owner what he had just encountered. As a result, the stall owner said, "Does the woman you are talking about look like this?" ?" Then the businessman looked up and saw that the stall owner in front of him also had an oval face with no facial features, and then he fainted from fright.

This story has no beginning and no end, and it just ends like this, but in the final analysis it is about a monster called a raccoon dog, which can transform into a human form to trick others. The raccoon dog's body is a guy with no facial features and a face like an oval.

"Then I was thinking, how delicious is that stall selling soba noodles in Raccoon? Why doesn't it sell something else but soba noodles?"

"………………"

Well, this is very familiar to Yana.

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai obviously understood what Banaijian meant.

"So you're saying you want to investigate the food in the ghost story?"

"That's right!"

Yanami picked up the last piece of tempura and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Ghost stories are all scary stories, so what does it have to do with the food in them? Look, aren't there also legends abroad about vampires being afraid of garlic? I think this is of great value for investigation and research."

For Yanami, she has no problem eating green peppers, let alone garlic.

Yanami's parents really raised her to be a healthy child.

Duanmu Huai finally discovered that as long as it has something to do with food, Banami's IQ will rise exponentially.

Although this is strictly speaking, it is the same as asking you to explain the meaning of "the cold light in the fish's eyes" during the college entrance examination. It is completely meaningless.

But for Hanami, as long as there is something to eat, she doesn't choose at all.

Look, she has now started eating the third box at the bottom.

This does not include the box of bento that Yanami brought.

"I don't care. Where is Chitanda?"

Duanmuhuai really doesn’t care, the Classical Department, the Classical Department, classical literature is this kind of thing, the ancients wrote whatever they wanted, and we interpret it casually. You don't care if Li Bai wrote "Flying down three thousand feet, it seems that the Milky Way falls from the sky" when he was drunk and went to the toilet.

"I think this seems interesting too!"

At this moment, Chitanda's eyes were also shining. Although it was not to the point of "I am very curious", it did seem to arouse her interest.

In fact, Duanmu Huai was also quite interested. Only Banami could come up with the idea of ​​finding food from ghost stories, and no one else would have thought of it.

Once this is done, maybe it can be used as a plan for a variety show.

Duanmu Huai thinks that if Banaijian goes to university in the future, he will definitely major in food.

"Then it's settled."

Duanmu Huai finished the last bite of the omelette rice.

"The next research topic of the Classics Department is ghost stories and food."

“Okay! Ah, can I have that rice ball over there?”

“Take it.”
