Anime: The Days I Opened a Restaurant in Fantasy Town

Xiaolin Longdan arrived at the door and found a sign saying "Closed".

I turned the door handle hoping for a lucky break, but of course there was no response.

The door is definitely not open...

It’s only been dark for a short while, why is it closed?

Kobayashi Ryodan looked to his side and saw Erina Nakiri with a suspicious look on her face.

"Senior Kobayashi, even if it has a sign saying 'Open for Business', I don't think there is a portal in our world..."

"I'm not lying, I've been here before; now that it's closed, let's come back tomorrow."

"This is so suspicious... Those snacks should have been purchased from a popular store, right? They can't have come from the restaurant behind this strange door."

"If you don't believe it, you will have the answer tomorrow. I guarantee that it will surprise you."

Kobayashi Ryodan made his promise solemnly, showing no sign of guilt.

At this point, Erina Nakiri didn't know what to say...

She still remembers the snacks she tasted.

Amazingly delicious, unique ingredients, and an aroma that is impossible to analyze.

Because she was too concerned, Erina felt like ants were crawling all over her body.

However, the restaurant door could not be opened at the moment, so we had to wait until tomorrow.

With no other options, Erina turned and left the alley.

"Senior Xiaolin, won't this door be discovered by others?"

"I'm not sure about that. I just remember Boss Zhou Guang said that the restaurant's door might not be open to everyone."

"Before entering that restaurant, Kobayashi-san's answer seemed like something out of a novel to me."

"So I'll prove it then."

Kobayashi Rindan gave another affirmative answer.

The two also made an agreement to meet again tomorrow.

The next day.

The first thing Erina did when she woke up was to take out her cell phone and call Kobayashi Ryodo.

The two sides exchanged mobile phone numbers yesterday to facilitate contact with each other.

I called five times in a row, but no one answered.

"Are you still sleeping in...?"

Erina said resentfully.

She didn't intend to wait any longer, so she changed her clothes immediately and walked towards the alley she had walked into yesterday.

The neighborhood was not far from Totsuki Academy, and Erina, who had the authority, could enter and exit freely, so it only took less than twenty minutes.

Boom!

As soon as I arrived at the scene, a loud thunder sounded above my head.

The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds.

The rumbling thunder exploded again after a flash of lightning.

Wow——!

The big raindrops fell almost without warning.

The crackling sound of the rain was like rhythmless drumbeats, hitting the eaves, the streets, and the girl's body.

Erina, who did not prepare an umbrella, was instantly soaked by the sudden rainstorm.

She tugged at the hem of her skirt, adjusted her wet shirt that was clinging to her body, and walked quickly towards the door in front of her.

"Open for business..."

Erina noticed that yesterday's 'closed' had become 'open'.

She stretched out her right hand doubtfully, grasped the door handle and turned it gently.

Click.

opened!

Opposite is not an extended street, but a restaurant hall with soft lighting and a warm atmosphere.

"welcome."

A gentle voice reached her ears, and Erina looked forward.

There was a young man wearing an apron standing by the counter.

"So it's... true?"

"New guest, young lady, is it raining in your world? Please come in first, I will prepare clothes for you."

"Are you the boss here?"

"Yes, my name is Zhou Guang, and the lady is...?"

"Erina Nakiri."

Erina gave her name straightforwardly.

She noticed that Zhou Guang's expression didn't change much.

As a famous name in the culinary world, it is impossible that chefs have not heard of 'Nakiri'.

so……

Maybe this really is a different world?

"That... A-choo!"

Erina, who had caught a cold, sneezed.

Seeing this, Zhou Guang said again

"Please follow me. There is a bathroom on the second floor. I will prepare clothes for Miss Nakiri."

"Oh? But..."

"Your health is everything, so enjoy the food later."

After hearing this proposal, Erina finally agreed.

She planned to explore the restaurant and get to know the young man in front of her better.

Chapter 14: Shugo shows off his skills and Erina learns what a genius chef is!

Kamishizawa Huiyin is a gentle person.

Although he is a bit stubborn on weekdays, he does not have any malicious intentions.

However, if a student fails to complete his homework, he will often be punished by her.

A few days ago, Zhou Guang saw a student who had been hit on the head go to a restaurant to buy snacks. He said he bought them and ate them while copying textbooks...

Zhou Guang supports everything Huiyin does.

Perhaps it is for this reason that the two have a good relationship.

Huiyin's private school occasionally received snacks provided by Zhouguang;

Zhou Guang became closer to Huiyin.

The same thing happened last night.

Now Zhou Guang, who had left the guest room on the second floor of the private school, stretched lazily.

He got up early and originally wanted to invite Huiyin, who shared the same bed with him, to have breakfast in a restaurant, but when he opened his eyes, he found that she had already left.

On the cabinet on one side, there was a letter with the words "handling teaching materials" written on it.

Zhou Guang, who was looking forward to meeting Huiyin next time, admired Huiyin's hard work and then walked straight towards his restaurant.

Familiar processes and familiar operations.

There is also the familiar sound of parrots.

【I didn’t come back at night! I didn’t come back at night! 】

"Go to the second floor for some snacks. They're in the cabinet."

【Eat snacks in the morning! Eat snacks in the morning! 】

The parrot cried loudly and flew back to the second floor.

After chasing away the noisy guy, Zhou Guang turned on the necessary appliances in the kitchen.

Preheat the oven, tumble dry the dough, and check if you have enough ingredients with the help of the menu.

Zhou Guang, who had completed all preparations, soon heard the bell that signaled the arrival of guests.

This time, a soaking wet blonde girl appeared at the door.

Erina Nakiri, Shukou recognized her identity at the first moment.

"welcome."

Even though they knew each other, Zhou Guang still followed the procedure and greeted him.

After a brief exchange, Shukou asked Erina to go to the second floor to take a shower and change her wet clothes.

He didn't want his guests to catch a cold.

Erina Nakiri was straightforward and did not refuse. She followed Shukou to the second floor.

"I'll go fill the bathtub with hot water. Ms. Nakiri, please wipe yourself with a towel first."

"Thank you."

"No, if I really caught a cold and couldn't taste anything, it would be a problem for me as a chef."

Smiling, Zhou Guang went to the bathroom and filled it with hot water.

"I'll leave the clothes in the bathroom, they're all clean."

"Why is Mr. Zhou Guang so well prepared...?"

"Because occasionally there are a few guests who need my care."

Especially the monsters that often break out into conflicts.

Many of them would go to the restaurant to rest and eat.

Erina didn't know the specific reason, and walked towards the bathroom with some doubts.

Seeing the girl enter the bathroom, Zhou Guang asked outside the door

"Is there anything you want to eat? I can make something hot."

"Has there been a man named Kobayashi Ryodan here before? Mr. Zhou Guang should remember him, right?"

"Yes."

"She bought some snacks here and shared them with me. They tasted delicious, so..."

"What did you want to say, Ms. Nakiri?"

"I hope that after I come out, Mr. Zhou Guang will be cooking. I want to see it."

"of course can."

Zhou Guang did not refuse.

The cooking process is not a secret, and it is quite fun to cook while someone is watching you.
