Douluo Continent: Gourmet Prisoner

Chapter 78 Culinary Academy

The culinary academy is right next to Gong Lao's farm, and it's very deserted.

Nonsense, how could it not be deserted? There are only seven people in the entire academy, it would be a miracle if it were lively.

"Come on, let's take you to see our culinary instructor, Shrek's top nutritionist and chef, Lu Xiaoxiao." Wu Ming pulled Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan straight to Lu Xiaoxiao's office.

Han Ruoruo shook her head. Ming'er was still in such a hurry.

What is Lu Xiaoxiao doing at this moment?

"Little jellyfish, hehehe." Lu Xiaoxiao gently touched the jam jellyfish while letting out a silly laugh that didn't match her identity and appearance.

She became like this the day she gained the approval of the jam jellyfish.

She becomes like this when she is alone and surrounded by jellyfish.

If you could sense the emotions of the ingredients, you would find that these jam jellyfish have a helpless yet indulgent attitude towards Lu Xiaoxiao.

When Wu Ming, Han Ruoruo, and Zhang Lexuan, who came to visit, saw her, Lu Xiaoxiao was embarrassed for a while, but they already knew each other and became even more familiar with each other afterward.

Lu Xiaoxiao also answered their questions.

"Jam jellyfish are creatures that could become my mother."

Yes, that's exactly how Lu Xiaoxiao answered back then.

Oh, Shrek, oh, Shrek.

As expected of Shrek!

Perhaps we should thank Yu Xiaogang, this "master," whose achievements are unprecedented and unparalleled.

Why, you ask?

Because Yu Xiaogang ushered in the era of extraordinary people, and perhaps future generations can surpass him in extraordinary abilities, but he was the creator and guide of this era.

Because Lu Xiaoxiao took it for granted, the following scene naturally unfolded.

A crisp knocking sound rang out.

"Xiaoxiao, is it convenient for us to come in?" Even the impulsive Wu Ming didn't want the freshmen in the food department to see Lu Xiaoxiao swooning over the jam jellyfish.

But some ideas are destined to fail, because this is Shrek.

"Come in." Upon hearing the knock, Lu Xiaoxiao nervously tidied her appearance, but relaxed when she heard a familiar voice and continued to swoon over the jam jellyfish.

Then Wu Ming pushed open the door and brought Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan in, with Han Ruoruo following closely behind.

Everyone witnessed this scene. Tang Ya remained silent, Jiang Nannan was confused, and Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo closed their eyes in despair.

Apart from the initial sounds of doors opening and footsteps, only Lu Xiaoxiao's infatuated murmurs and the breathing of the crowd remained in the room.

Even the jellyfish couldn't stand the situation and conveyed its embarrassment to Lu Xiaoxiao.

Whether it was the overly quiet environment or the emotions conveyed by the jam jellyfish, Lu Xiaoxiao regained her serious demeanor.

"Wu Ming, Ruo Ruo, what do you want to see me about? Why are you silent? This isn't the first time you've seen me like this, you know, you know!"

As she spoke, Lu Xiaoxiao reluctantly shifted her gaze from the jam jellyfish and turned to look at Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo.

Then she saw two familiar yet unfamiliar faces, and she froze.

Lu Xiaoxiao stopped talking. The color faded from her body, and her face was expressionless. Her heart was dead.

She wouldn't blame anyone. Wu Ming had already reminded her before she entered. Given their relationship, they usually didn't knock and just walked in. It was usually the impatient Wu Ming who knocked and asked questions.

Strange freshmen?

Lu Xiaoxiao isn't some kind of superhuman, so how could a newcomer possibly know what she's doing?

Strange Fruit Jam Jellyfish?

The moment the thought crossed Lu Xiaoxiao's mind, she wanted to slap herself twice.

No matter what the fault is, it can't be the jellyfish's fault. After all, the jellyfish is a soul beast that can become Lu Xiaoxiao's mother.

Moreover, the jam jellyfish had reminded her as well.

Who is at fault?

This social tragedy was a perfect storm of favorable timing, location, and human factors.

The perfect timing is that today happens to be the day the food department admits its students.

The advantage lies in the fact that my office is the closest.

The good thing was that I happened to be obsessed with the jam jellyfish, Wu Ming and the others happened to bring the newcomers over, and I happened to be used to doing this in front of familiar people.

I, Lu Xiaoxiao, was destined to face this calamity.

No, it can't be my fault. It's only human nature to be captivated by such a beautiful and gentle creature as the jellyfish.

I know now!

It's all your fault, Ishmael!

You ask me who Ishmael is?

Okay, it's all my fault.

You ask me what I did wrong, and whether I'll do it again next time?

I don't know what I did wrong, but I will definitely do it again next time. Just like I said, what's wrong with being obsessed with such a beautiful and gentle creature as the jellyfish?

Even if this is wrong, it's still better than that knight riding on a boar in the outer courtyard, right?

No, that's not right. It's an insult to me, and an insult to the jam jellyfish.

You can insult me.

Insulting the jam jellyfish is unacceptable!

The jam jellyfish is so beautiful and gentle. Just give it a gentle massage and it will give you delicious jam. It even comforts me when I'm happy.

Hehehe, jam jellyfish.

In Wu Ming's eyes, Lu Xiaoxiao first lost her color, and then almost collapsed into a puddle of mud.

Oh, what a beautiful person she is.

How could this be? How could this be?

It turned into a puddle of mud!

Then suddenly the colors returned, and the scene was very divorce-like.

It's like the Grimer in front of you suddenly turning into Alola Grimer.

What they then saw was Lu Xiaoxiao's suddenly determined gaze and her sudden, silly giggle.

This scene is terrifying. It's like replacing the red blood in a gory horror movie with brown blood. Just imagining that instead of red blood, brown snow is spurting out is enough to send chills down your spine.

At this moment, Lu Xiaoxiao's performance was no less impactful than that scene; it was incredibly moving.

"Hehehe, jam jellyfish."

Wu Ming couldn't stand it anymore.

"Sister Xiaoxiao, can you please tone down that weird smell? There are new people here!"

Lu Xiaoxiao was awakened by Wu Ming's words, but at this moment she wished she could stay immersed in the fantasy she had just had, and she wanted to escape the reality of this socially dead end once again.

If she were a child, she would be praised for her imagination.

But she was already an adult, and in the adult world, people who do such things are called geniuses.

Damn adult world.

Life, can you please spare me this time? In my next life, I just want to be a child who never grows up.

Yes, Lu Xiaoxiao is already thinking about her next life; this life is fine as it is.

"Guh, jam jellyfish, take me away!" Lu Xiaoxiao cried out in despair.

She gazed lovingly at the jam-filled jellyfish in the aquarium, then turned to Wu Ming and the others to give them her last instructions.

"After I die, please cremate my body and scatter my ashes in the ocean where jam jellyfish live. Thank you."
