I, Uchiha Yu, am solely focused on cultivating immortality

Chapter 2, Round 3: Yashi or Rinka-chan

Chapter 2 Miwa Masashi or Rika-chan

Upon hearing the tabby cat's words, Uchiha Yu smiled and his hands moved even faster.

While the rice was cooking, he boiled another pot of water and continued to wash the white sesame seeds, chicken breast, and carrots.

Boil the chicken and carrot in water until cooked through, then remove them from the water. Quickly chop the chicken and mash the carrot into a paste.

Crack in the beaten eggs, add a small amount of soy sauce for color, add all the seasonings except salt, and stir all the ingredients at an incredibly fast speed until it becomes a pink meat sauce.

Boil water again, shape the meat sauce into small meatballs the size of pigeon eggs, and blanch them one by one in the boiling water until cooked through.

Continue simmering the meatball soup, adding salt, MSG, and soy sauce to taste. Finally, thicken the soup with cornstarch to increase its viscosity and texture, and reduce the sauce over high heat.

Once the rice was cooked, Uchiha Yu took out two bowls, filled them with white rice, topped them with a layer of meatballs, and poured a thick sauce over one of the bowls.

Finally, take out a few sheets of seaweed, crush them in your palm, and sprinkle them evenly on the meatballs. Lunch is ready.

He didn't actually like adding seaweed, but another customer did.

Uchiha Yuu pulled out a table and plated the remaining seaweed and her homemade pickled vegetables together to make it look more abundant.

He then pulled out a bottle of orange wine that had been brewed last year, opened the bottle, and smelled it. The sweet orange aroma confirmed that the brewing was successful.

"Not bad, at least it didn't turn into orange vinegar. Although vinegar is drinkable, sweet wine still tastes better."

Uchiha Yu poured himself a cup with satisfaction, set out his chopsticks, and stared at the tabby cat.

The tabby cat's eyes were involuntarily locked onto the meatball, drool dripping from the corner of its mouth, but it stubbornly raised its head and refused to eat it.

Uchiha Yu shook her head helplessly. That's just how proud the tabby cat is. She won't "disrespect her friend" and eat casually without being invited.

This also indicates a lack of intimacy.

"Pear Blossom Sauce, this is cat food I made especially for you. As a sincere friend, I ask you to enjoy it with me. You can't refuse!"

"Okay, Yu, you're my friend, so your face... Awoo, awoo... That's... Awoo... You absolutely have to... Awoo... Give it to me... Awooa ...

With its head buried in its rice bowl, the tabby cat persisted in finishing its sentence, no longer caring about its image, and began to devour its food with loud whimpering.

Uchiha Yu couldn't help but wonder if this tabby cat had starved itself for seven days just to save room so it could show off the cat food she made for it.

But these are things you can see through but can't say out loud, otherwise you'll lose your friendship.

Although Rika is her own psychic cat, cats are proud and absolutely cannot tolerate humiliation.

If you feel insulted, the first thing the psychic tabby cat will do when it appears in the future will be to attack you.

Uchiha Yu smiled and began to eat his portion of cat food.

Actually, once you pour on the meatball soup sauce, it can't be considered cat food anymore; it's his favorite meatball rice bowl with sauce.

First, pick up a meatball, put it in your mouth, use your tongue to move it under your back teeth, and gently bite down. You can just feel the firm elasticity of the chicken meat, and the delicious broth inside the meatball bursts out.

Because the base is cat food, the amount of salt was deliberately reduced, so you can taste the sweetness of the chicken and the glutinous aroma of the carrot.

Then, the rich aroma and savory flavor of the sauce coating the meatballs are added, creating a complex and multifaceted taste.

Uchiha Yu was very satisfied with his cooking skills, but he was slightly dissatisfied with the texture of the dumplings; they were too soft.

If you can find fresh lotus root or crisp vegetables like ground pears, preferably slightly sweet ones, chop them up to replace carrots, and enjoy their crisp texture. Paired with the firm and chewy texture of fresh meat, that would be perfect.

However, this would no longer be considered cat food. Cats without molars can only tear and swallow, which is what is meant by wolfing down food.

Therefore, cats cannot eat crunchy vegetables. Their intestines can digest hard bones, but they have difficulty digesting crunchy vegetables.

If you insist on eating it, food may get stuck in your intestines, causing abdominal pain and acute enteritis.

This is a potentially fatal disease, and even if the tabby cat is a ninja cat from Cat Castle, it shouldn't take such a risk.

If we were to make something like this, I'd need one for myself and one for the tabby cat.

It's too much trouble, Uchiha Yuu is too lazy to do it.

Stopping her wandering thoughts, Uchiha Yu focused on her meal, fully enjoying the food she had made herself, which gave her a great sense of accomplishment.

The meatballs paired with rice have a slightly bland taste, but they're perfectly complemented by the pickled side dishes, resulting in a savory flavor that's still quite delicious.

After finishing one bowl, Uchiha Yu was not satisfied. He filled a second bowl with rice, topped it with meatballs, and poured sauce over it.

He quickly filled a third bowl, and only felt satisfied after finishing the whole pot of rice and all the meatballs.

Uchiha Yu slowly sipped her orange wine, waiting for Inspector Meow to finish her second bowl, which this time only contained dumplings, no rice.

Yes, cats are carnivores and should eat more meat.

After a long while, the tabby cat finished eating.

She bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you for your hospitality."

Before Uchiha Yu could return the greeting, she said in a very serious tone, "Although I enjoyed your hospitality, I still have to say: my name is not Rika, and you are not allowed to call me Rika-chan!"

"But you're a tabby cat, and a girl at that. Calling you Pear Blossom Sauce would be much more fitting."

"Meow! My name is Masayo Miwa, Masayo Miwa! My name isn't based on what I look like!"

The tabby cat's ears stood on end in anger, and she shouted at the top of her lungs, "What the hell is the tabby cat and Pear Blossom supposed to do with each other?"

Uchiha Yu thought with a grin: Of course, it's a homonym in Chinese.

His greatest secret was time travel, and of course, he wouldn't tell anyone else. Uchiha Yu firmly believed that once a second person knew, the secret would no longer be a secret.

If he dies, this will be a secret he takes to his grave.

The tabby cat, Masayo Miwa, shouted again, "Anyway, Yu! You're not allowed to give me any more weird names!"

"Okay, pear blossom jam."

"Meow!! I'm angry, meow!"

"Why are you angry, Rin~Hana~chan~?"

"Awooo—!"

The raccoon cat, having lost its mind, sprang up from the table and unleashed a barrage of meow punches at Uchiha Yu, making the human's head throb with a series of loud slaps.

But the tabby cat, Miwa Masayo, didn't stick out its claws. The bouncy paw pads hit its head, but it didn't hurt at all; it even felt a bit like a massage.

Uchiha Yu naturally knew that the tabby cat was holding back, and to save the kitten's face, he deliberately screamed "Ah!" "Ah!"

The person and the cat happily played around, treating it as a pastime after a hearty meal.

After they'd had their fun, they started cleaning up the mess.

Miwa Masayo regained his elegant demeanor, sitting on the windowsill and meticulously combing his disheveled hair. At the same time, he urged Uchiha Yu to get to work like a supervisor.

"Can't you help?"

"Sorry, I only have claws, not hands."

"I cook, and I wash the dishes too..."

"Hurry up, meow! I'm waiting for you to prepare the fruit, meow!"

"Oh my, you carnivore, how come you like eating fruit?"

"It was all your doing! You stuffed catnip into a watermelon to trick me into eating it, and now I love watermelon, meow."

"Watermelons are very expensive..."

"How expensive can it be? It can't be more expensive than meat..."

"One slice of watermelon is equivalent to two pieces of chicken breast."

"Meow?"

"A whole chicken breast."

"How about I skip the watermelon today and give you four pieces of chicken breast to take home?"
