The delicacies of the heavens begin with obtaining gem meat.

After a long while, Oomido Fumio slowly opened his eyes, looked at Jiang Yan, and said in a solemn tone.

"You've passed."

Jiang Yan's steamed egg fish noodle soup is extremely well-made, bringing out the best flavor of the ingredients.

However, Oomido Fumio knew that this was not Jiang Yan's limit.

At least in the preparation of the fish soup, Jiang Yan was somewhat perfunctory.

However, this level of skill is indeed sufficient to pass the move-in skills test.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan smiled.

The three people next to Yoshino Yuuki breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily.

"Hey, Jiang Yan, we'd like to try the scrambled egg fish noodle soup too."

Yoshino Yuuki looked at Jiang Yan and spoke.

This is perfect for dinner.

Ryoko Sakaki and Megumi Tadokoro also showed expectant expressions.

Seeing the expectant expressions on Yoshino Yuuki and the other two's faces, Jiang Yan nodded in agreement.

"No problem, leave the rest to me."

Actually, he had prepared more ingredients than usual.

There's only enough fat and minced meat to make two steamed eggs, so two people can only share one.

I quickly made four more servings of steamed egg fish noodle soup.

Jiang Yan quickly finished his portion.

He then took the brass key engraved with number 101 from Fumio Oomido, picked up his luggage, and went into the corresponding room.

They quickly laid out the bedding and put away their personal belongings.

Just as Jiang Yan was busy in the room, a panting Yukihira Soma pushed open the door of the Polar Star Dormitory.

..............................

Hearing the noise, Oomido Fumio came out of the administrator's room.

With his arms crossed and a calm expression, he looked at Soma Yukihira standing at the door and asked a question.

"You're Soma Yukihira, the one who wants to stay here, right?"

After all, Oomido Fumio already knew Jiang Yan's name.

Two transfer students were assigned to the Polaris Dormitory. Besides Jiang Yan, the other was naturally Yukihira Soma.

"I am the administrator here, Fumio Oomido, 'Maria of the Polar Star'."

Just as Soma Yukihira was about to ask about the check-in, Fumio Oomido spoke up.

"Tell me, what ingredients have you prepared?"

She was quite satisfied with the fish soup noodles with scrambled eggs that Jiang Yan had just made.

Therefore, Fumio Ōmidō couldn't help but have higher expectations for Soma Yukihira, who was also a transfer student.

"Huh? Ingredients? What ingredients?"

Soma Yukihira stared blankly at Fumio Oomido, his eyes wide open.

Do I need to bring my own food if I'm staying in the dorms at Totsuki Academy?

Clearly, Soma Yukihira hadn't even bothered to read the check-in instructions for Polar Star Dormitory carefully.

"Is that even a question?"

Fumio Oomido's eyes widened in surprise, not expecting that Soma Yukihira didn't even know the basic rules for staying at the Polar Star Dormitory.

I had no choice but to patiently explain.

"To stay at Polaris Dormitory, you need to pass a check-in skill test."

"In other words, anyone who wants to stay must cook a dish by hand, and only if they satisfy me can they stay."

"And you can bring your own ingredients, whatever you want."

..............................

Upon hearing Fumio Oomido's explanation, Soma Yukihira's face immediately fell, filled with helplessness.

"I've never heard of that before! And I didn't prepare any ingredients at all!"

He only knew that he was going to stay at the Polaris Dormitory, but he didn't pay attention to the rules at all, so he didn't prepare any food in advance.

"Then you've lost without a fight."

Ōmiya Fumio shrugged, his tone tinged with regret.

"If you don't show off your skills, you won't be able to live in the Polar Star Dormitory."

She was quite looking forward to it, but it seems she'll have to wait until tomorrow.

"Huh? So, tonight I'm going to..."

Soma Yukihira's heart skipped a beat, and a strong sense of foreboding welled up inside him.

"Of course, we'll sleep outdoors."

Oomido Fumio appeared calm and collected, but his words sent Yukihira Soma plummeting into an icy abyss.

"Stop joking!"

Soma Yukihira was furious, pointing at the door and raising his voice by eight octaves.

"Someone could die! Don't underestimate an April night! And I walked for over an hour to get here; I'm exhausted and starving!"

Hearing the commotion, Jiang Yan came out of the room.

Seeing Soma Yukihira's frantic expression, I couldn't help but laugh.

At that moment, Soma Yukihira also saw Jiang Yan and was overjoyed.

"Jiang Yan..."

But before Soma Yukihira could finish speaking, Jiang Yan interrupted him.

"I'm sorry, I've run out of the ingredients I brought."

"There's a little fish soup left, you can have it."

Jiang Yan had actually thought of Yukihira Soma beforehand, so he prepared a little more ingredients.

However, after making four extra dishes, they were all used up.

He was helpless too!

........................

Upon hearing that Jiang Yan also had no ingredients, Soma Yukihira immediately became very disappointed and looked pitifully at Fumio Oomido.

"Excuse me, could I stay the night?"

"Absolutely not."

Ōmiya Fumio's attitude was resolute, leaving no room for compromise.

"According to the rules of Polaris Dormitory, a skills test is mandatory for new occupants."

He paused, then said with a hint of helplessness in his voice.

"Of course, it's not necessary to use your own ingredients."

"What a pity... the kitchen is now just full of scraps and unfinished products."

"Your luck hasn't been great today."

If Yukihira Soma had arrived a little earlier, the kitchen might have been able to leave him some usable ingredients.

Soma Yukihira's eyes suddenly lit up, and he became instantly invigorated.

"So, we can use the remaining materials to participate in the test?"

Even with only scraps, Soma Yukihira believed he could create amazing and delicious dishes.

"What?"

Oomido Fumio looked at Yukihira Soma with some surprise, clearly not expecting that Yukihira Soma was still not giving up.

"I've accepted the test! Where's the kitchen?"

Soma Yukihira clenched his fists, his eyes gleaming with fierce fighting spirit.

In order to avoid sleeping outdoors in the cold wind, he had to give it his all.

Seeing Soma Yukihira's energetic appearance, Fumio Oomido also became interested.

He nodded and turned to walk towards the kitchen.

"Come with me."

Entering the kitchen, Soma Yukihira glanced at the remaining ingredients, thought for a moment, and quickly came up with an idea.

They rolled up their sleeves and got to work without saying a word.

Not long after, a thick hamburger patty, a bowl of rice, and a bowl of egg drop soup were placed in front of Fumio Oomido.

It's simple, yet looks incredibly tempting.

"Yukihira Fast Food Mackerel Burger Meal, please enjoy."

Soma Yukihira looked at Fumio Oomido with a confident expression and said.

Looking at the food in front of him, Fumio Oomido calmly picked up a piece of mackerel burger patty and put it in his mouth.

The soft yet chewy texture instantly won over her taste buds.

Egg drop soup made with squid tentacles and fish broth is so delicious it makes your taste buds tingle.

After taking a sip of soup, Fumio Oomido felt as if she had instantly traveled back to her teenage years.

On a summer beach, a gentle evening breeze blows, and a young boy in first love shares a shy kiss in the twilight.

Overwhelmed with emotion, Ōmidō Fumio suddenly raised his head, his eyes glazed over as he looked at Yukihira Soma…

Jiang Yan, standing at the door, calmly raised his phone.

These kinds of photos are priceless, rare finds.
