If a normal person breaks the law, he might just talk to the lovely Officer Melusin, but when a Zhidong intelligence officer like me breaks the law and gets caught, tut tut tut...

If you walk to the Palazzo Bufati, you have to take a long detour, first go back to the Fountain of the Windsor, and then go around through the Vasari Corridor.

The round trip takes at least one or two hours, and all the time is wasted on the road.

It would be better to stay nearby for a while and wait until evening to discuss the recipe with Sangnetti.

There are only two places worth visiting near Debo Hotel.

One is the Steambird Newspaper Agency and the other is the newsstand.

As for the Salon de Calende...in Chao Ke's opinion, it is a gathering place for a group of public intellectuals and retired cadres.

Chao Ke had heard their arguments so many times in his previous life that his ears were callused.

Chao Ke could even distill their behavior and logic into a formula, and apply it to different situations. The results were always the same, it was all about how the Mo Mang Palace as a whole or a certain department was irresponsible or incompetent or something like that.

After thinking for a moment, Chao Ke decided to go to the newsstand and buy a few newspapers for fun.

He walked to the newsstand, tapped the counter, and said to Hubert, who was absorbed in reading a newspaper, "Boss, do you have today's newspaper?"

Hubert, who was studying the writing style and rhetoric of the Steam Bird, woke up with a start, looked at the customer a little embarrassedly, and said, "Yes, yes, please wait a moment, I will get it for you."

"Look, customer, the only newspapers left today are Entertainment Weekly, Voyeur, Chef, and Surprise."

Yu Beier said as he showed Chao Ke the inventory.

"I'd like to have one copy of each of these newspapers, but there's no Steambird News?" Chao Ke asked with some confusion.

"Oh, this one is really sold out. After all, the Steam Bird Newspaper is really popular and usually sells out in the morning. Even so, this is based on the fact that many people subscribe directly to the newspaper."

Hubert was a little embarrassed about having no stock, but there was a hint of pride on his face when he mentioned the Steam Bird News.

"But if you don't mind, you can take my copy first. I have every copy of the Steam Bird."

As he spoke, Yu Beier sorted out the newspaper that Chao Ke had asked for and handed it to him, and then took out today's "Steam Bird News" from his own collection.

"Okay, thank you Mr. Yu Beier." After paying for the newspaper, Chao Ke nodded slightly to express his gratitude, and sat down leisurely on a bench on the side of the road with the newspaper.

Pick up one at random and start reading.

The headline of "Entertainer Weekly" is: Breaking news! Ms. Funina will perform the play "Winter Sun" at the Opikley Opera House the morning after tomorrow, and the co-operating troupe is the old theater Baohong Voice.

Here is the plot synopsis and background...

When Chao Ke saw the title of the drama, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. What a great play "Winter Sunrise". It really seems like Funina's idea to choose this name for the performance.

The content further down is some meaningless entertainment activities and event commentary, such as a popular actress from a certain theater troupe attending an event, or Baisong Town holding a competition for the hardest baguette.

The only thing that might have caught Chao Ke's attention was a small notice that the great magician Cesare would hold a street performance in the Vasari Corridor in five days.

This great magician Cesar is the magic teacher of the siblings Linny and Linnet in the plot. He taught them the formal magic system and training methods.

"If you have time, go and have a look."

After reading "Entertainer Weekly", Chao Ke turned his attention to "Steam Bird News".

The headline of the Steambird Newspaper read: "A popular beverage factory used illegal raw materials. Our reporter, Mr. Arthur Bayer, was chased and killed by them after he went undercover to collect evidence and was seriously injured..."

The following content is "Another woman disappeared in Fontaine, and no trace was left at the scene. According to official sources, the murderer is most likely the culprit of the serial disappearance of young girls."

"Mr. Donatello of the Fontaine Grand Court, together with the Fontaine Special Patrol, destroyed a large-scale Les sales den and arrested many illegal merchants..."

"Mr. Donatello of the Grand Court..."

Chao Ke was not unfamiliar with this name. Xia Wole's father was an upright law enforcer. Even in the Gray River where criminals abounded, many people had benefited from his kindness and admired him.

If you scroll down, you will find that although there are some entertainment news and information, the focus of Steambird News is still on social reality issues.

After reading today's "Steam Bird News", Chao Ke exhaled, folded it carefully, and returned it to the newsstand owner, Mr. Yu Beier.

Somehow, Chao Ke recalled those respectable figures from his previous life.

The reporter Jian Guangzhou who exposed Sanlu milk powder, the reporter Jiang Xinjie who exposed gutter oil, the reporter Li Xiang who was stabbed more than 10 times, the reporter Cui Songwang who went undercover in the black brick factory...

Chao Ke saw a hint of their shadow in the Steam Bird Newspaper. It was precisely because of these backbones of the times that the light of righteousness shone into the dark corners and pulled out the nails in the darkness for the masses.

There is a reason why this newspaper is so popular in Fontaine.

After calming down, Chao Ke took out another newspaper and started reading.

The newspaper chosen this time is "Surprise". As its name suggests, in the eyes of the people of Fontaine, it is a piece of history in a strange package. It uses the most eye-catching headlines to write the most illogical reports, most of which are just rumors. People read this newspaper just for fun.

"Come, let me see what kind of wonderful answer you can give today."

But after just a glance at the headlines, Chao Ke's face instantly darkened, the veins on his hand holding the newspaper bulged, and the fragile newspaper was instantly covered with wrinkles.

"Surprise" headline: "Shocking! In order to win the shop, a senior official of the Bufadi Mansion actually committed himself to the middle-aged male landlord. In order to complete the deal, a fierce movement occurred between the two..."

"Okay...very good...Amazing Newspaper, right?...After this sensitive period is over, I will definitely let you know what the fucking cruelty is."

There are some things from my heart that I really want to talk to their editor-in-chief.

Chao Ke was so disgusted that he lost interest in reading any further after eating the melon on his head. He controlled the power of fire to ignite the "Amazing" newspaper, then crushed the remaining newspaper into a ball and threw it into the trash can.

"Forget it, let's go to the agreed location and wait for Sangnetti. Getting the recipe is the top priority right now."

But after walking some distance, Chao Ke suddenly thought of something, and quickly returned to Yu Beier's newsstand and said.

"Boss, do you have any copies of Marvel left in your store? I want them all."

"Ah? You want them all, sir? Okay, today's edition of Surprise, right? They're all in this pile."

As he spoke, Yu Beier handed a small stack of newspapers to Chao Ke.

Chao Ke paid the money expressionlessly, took the newspaper, found an empty corner and burned it all.

Inside the newsstand, Yu Beier stroked his chin and thought, today's "Amazing" newspaper sales are so good, otherwise he should order more tomorrow.

By the way, do you want to tell the newspaper again that today’s topic is very popular?

Chapter 10 Get the Recipe

Inside the Debo Hotel.

Ever since leaving Chao Ke, Sangnetti has been in a state of distraction, not knowing whether he should go to the appointment.

Although Sangnetti was quite resistant subconsciously, the card given by the gentleman had the image of the Fatui printed on it.

If he did not keep the appointment, he would very likely offend a member of the Fatui, and this was not a price Sangnetti wanted to pay.

"Why don't you just go? They just want me to write a recipe anyway. The Debo Hotel doesn't have any extremely valuable secret recipes. Even if there is one, it's not something I can know."

All Sangnetti knew were the common methods of preparing dishes, which were actually the same in all the restaurants in Fontaine.

Besides, the core selling point of the Debo Hotel is not the unique food, but the pinnacle of art and dining experience.

at dusk.

Chao Ke still waited for Sangnetti in a cafe in the Vasari Galleries.

"Mr. Sangnetti, thank you for coming."

After Sangnetti sat down, he still looked a little reserved. He took a deep breath and said to Chao Ke.

"Sir, I still don't understand why you came to me. If you want the recipe, there are better people than me at the Debo Hotel."

He smiled at Ke, took out the paper and pen he had prepared long ago and handed them to Sangnetti.

"I trust your excellent taste more than theirs, Mr. Sangnetti. In my opinion, the recipes you write are more reliable than theirs."

Sangnetti felt happy to hear that his taste and ability were recognized, but he still had some reservations about writing a recipe.

Seeing this, Chao Ke added helplessly: "Mr. Sangnetti, I will not take advantage of your hard work for free. I will give you a list. For every recipe you write, I will pay you 100,000 Mora as a reward."

Sangnetti took the list from Chao Ke and read it carefully. [Duck leg confit] [Cream of mushroom soup] [Water village aspic] [Apple black pudding] [Fontaine foie gras] [Lasagna with meat sauce] [Bai Song soup] [Harbor tripe] [Narbonne tomato cup]...

These are some of the more popular dishes in Fontaine, and basically all the restaurants in Fontaine, big or small, make them.

Besides, the treatment offered by Chao Ke was really tempting.

Damn, come on, why should a working man like me pick on Mora?

After deciding on his idea, Sangnetti picked up the paper and pen provided by Chao Ke and began to write quickly.

"A wise choice." Chao Ke said slowly.

Sangnetti's cooperation saved Chao Ke a lot of trouble. After an hour or two, Sangnetti handed Chao Ke a small stack of papers and said, "Sir, I have written down all the recipes on your list. There are a total of twelve dishes."

Chao Ke took it and looked at it one by one. It was indeed a very ordinary recipe, not much different from those recorded in those food books and magazines.

But most importantly, these recipes were written by Sangnetti and given to him by himself, and the system only recognizes these recipes.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Confit Chicken Legs]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Cassoulet Casserole]

A total of twelve dishes are unlocked on the system's [Food Encyclopedia] interface.

At least at the apprentice chef level, I don't have to bother looking for recipes anymore.

Sangnetti's recipes are written in a straightforward manner, and Chao Ke certainly wouldn't waste time on the reward.

He took out a check from the Northland Bank and wrote down 1.2 million Mora as a reward.

"It's been a pleasure working with you, Mr. Sangnetti."

After taking the check, Sangnetti thanked him and left the cafe feeling a little guilty.

After Sangnetti left, Chao Ke threw the pile of recipes into the trash can at his feet.

These recipes are really worthless, any restaurant in Fontaine would make them.

All he needed was for Sangnetti to hand over the recipe to him.
