Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 82 Yukiko: Chris, next time for sure.

Amuro Tooru stood in front of the stove, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Looks like I really made a profit working here. I actually ran into this guy, Vermouth, and got some useful information."

"I just don't know what Vermouth is doing in Tokyo. We need to investigate that. And the women around her too."

Absinthe has always been on missions in the United States, but now it has come to Tokyo.

He sensed that the organization might be planning a large-scale operation, otherwise they wouldn't have sent Vermouth over.

I just don't know if he'll make it in time.

In addition, it is also necessary for Fumiyo Edogawa to conduct an investigation.

The fact that he was even there was something extraordinary about him.

"However, now is not the time to think about that. Let's focus on cooking."

"We'll investigate the rest after get off work."

As a professional worker, he knows exactly what to do and when to do it.

It's working hours now, so naturally I should cook.

Amuro Tooru took a deep breath, clearing his mind of distractions, and then began to prepare the ingredients in front of him.

Cooking requires a sincere heart; only then will the food taste delicious.

soon
Enomoto Azusa presented the dishes prepared by Amuro Tooru to Mrs. Edogawa and Chris.

"Guest, here are your candied sweet potatoes, salt and pepper pork ribs, pickled fish, and boiled sliced ​​pork. All the dishes are served. Please enjoy."

Chris and Yukiko both said thank you.

Jingle Bell.
Just then, another guest arrived.

Enomoto Azusa quickly stepped forward to greet her.

Yukiko and Chris looked at the dishes on the table.

"Wow, it looks delicious."

"Then I'm welcome."

Yukiko looked at the tempting dishes and, without hesitation, picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a piece of pork rib, and popped it into her mouth.

This piece of pork rib has a little bit of cartilage, making it crunchy when you chew it.

"Even vaguely!"

Yukiko's eyes lit up; it was the scent she liked.

"Chris, you should try it too, it's really delicious."

"it is good."

Chris didn't stand on ceremony and picked up a piece of pork rib to eat as well.

They didn't hesitate at all because it was Bourbon's cooking, or fear that it had been poisoned.

After all, Amuro Tooru didn't know she was coming, and a proper chef wouldn't carry poison with him.

Moreover, the moment she saw her, she clearly saw surprise in Bourbon's eyes.

Her appearance also caught Bourbon completely off guard.

So you can eat it without worry.

Moreover, just as Yukiko said, this dish tastes quite good and is very authentic.

“It’s really delicious,” Chris said.

Bourbon, that guy, has really good cooking skills.

He's a good cook.

“Right, right?” Yukiko said with delight, “It seems we made the right choice coming here. We should thank Kitahara-sensei properly later.”

Hearing this, Chris smiled slightly, seizing the loophole: "Teacher Kitahara?"

"Is this the restaurant owned by one of your teachers when you were in school?"

"And what did you mean by Mrs. Edogawa earlier?"

While at the hotel, Yukiko didn't refer to herself as a teacher or anything like that. Instead, she said it was run by a friend, and after entering the hotel, she even introduced herself as Mrs. Edogawa.

Of course, she was just teasing Yukiko, wanting to see what answer she would give. "Ah..."

Yukiko paused for a moment while picking up food with her chopsticks, and quickly began to explain.

"Actually, she's a distant relative of mine. Her name is Edogawa. She's away on a business trip and not in Tokyo right now."

"And she also has a son, so she asked me to go see the teacher on her behalf. This teacher is the owner of this restaurant, which is why I introduced myself as Mrs. Edogawa when I entered."

"I see."

This reason, though barely acceptable, is passable.

However, the excuse about distant relatives was rather perfunctory, as she knew very well that Yukiko didn't have any distant relatives.

However, for the sake of this delicious meal, we'll let Yukiko off the hook this time.

But as things unfold, I wonder if Yukiko will tell me about this. I'm really looking forward to it!
After all, she knew Shinichi Kudo's personality quite well; he was a restless and troublesome guy.

"Here, try this. It won't taste good when it's cold."

Chris offered Yukiko a piece of sweet potato.

"Okay, I'll try it."

Yukiko breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Chris didn't press the matter further. She picked up a sweet potato and put it in her mouth.

At the same time, she still felt somewhat apologetic.

I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to hide it from you, Chris. I'll tell you everything when the time is right.

Next time for sure.
"I vaguely remember that this is sweet, but not too sweet. The sweetness is just right. It's really delicious."

Half an hour later.
Yukiko and Chris devoured all the food on the table, including two bowls of rice.

This time, Yukiko was quite full; all she could say was that it was incredibly delicious.

At that moment, Tooru Amuro, the head chef and manager, walked over and smiled at Yukiko and Chris, saying, "How do you two like the taste? Is there anything that needs improvement?"

Upon hearing this, Yukiko smiled and said, "It's very delicious. I don't think there's anything that can be improved."

Although she thought the boiled pork slices were a little spicy, that was the original flavor.

If the flavor is changed, it won't taste good.

Chris chimed in, "It's very authentic Chinese food. I don't think there's anything that needs to be changed. If it were changed, it would lose its original deliciousness and become inauthentic."

Upon hearing this, Amuro smiled and bowed slightly: "Thank you both very much for your comments. This is the greatest praise I can receive."

Delicious! Tasty! That's the best compliment you could give him as a chef.

"Mr. Amuro, you're too kind." Yukiko smiled. "It's getting late, so we won't bother you any longer."

"Please tell Mr. Kitahara that he really appreciated the lunch; it was delicious."

"I'll help you with the promotion," Yukiko said.

Amuro said, "Thank you very much. I will pass it on to the boss."

"Alright, then we'll take our leave now."

Yukiko and Chris stood up, nodded slightly to Amuro Tooru and Enomoto Azusa, and then left the restaurant.

After watching the two leave, Enomoto Azusa turned to Amuro Tooru with a big smile: "Manager Amuro, that was really great. Everyone was very satisfied with your cooking."

"This isn't just my achievement, it's also thanks to you and the boss." Amuro Tooru smiled, then glanced at the clock on the wall: "Azusa, could you please watch the shop for a moment? I'm going out to buy some things."

"Okay, store manager."

"Ah."

at the same time.

"Oh no, you left your things at the restaurant?" Yukiko exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Chris said, "Yes, I put it on the table. I'll go back and take a look."

"I'll go with you."

“It’s nothing particularly important, so you don’t need to go together. Just wait for me here, I’ll be right back,” Chris said.

Yukiko nodded: "Alright then, I'll wait for you here."

"it is good."
