I found a life simulator.

Think of this.

Senzaemon Nakiri turned his gaze to the table next to him. This place was practically a battlefield; the entire kitchen table was about to be set on fire! Damn it!

The noise was so loud that even Senzaemon Nakiri's attention was drawn away.

"Kurokiba, bring that over here for me," Alice Nakiri called out.

"Which one is that?" Kurokiba Ryo asked, speechless. "Can you tell me the name?"

"I don't know how to call it that. I don't use Eastern kitchen utensils much. It's that weird one that can peel skins."

"That's what Alice Nakiri said."

Kurokiba Ryo flipped through it. "Is this it?"

"No, it's another one."

"Hey, your pot's on fire! Why did you just pour the cooking wine in and then leave it there?" Alice Nakiri shouted anxiously.

"I'm speechless. It's not like you were looking for a tool. And to make matters worse, you can't even name it. Is this all the Danish genius chef is supposed to be?" Alice brought Kurokiba Ryo's attention back to him.

They immediately applied the brakes and began dealing with their own problems.

"Oh no, it's all burned."

"We need to get new ingredients, and we also need to wash the surface of this pot." Kurokiba Ryo was exasperated.

Having gotten used to cooking solo, he found it quite strange to have someone helping him. He wasn't sure whether this Alice Nakiri was there to help or to make things worse.

Not only do you not do anything, but you also have to pull his pants leg.

Senzaemon Nakiri withdrew his gaze.

It's too horrible to look at!

These two are so well-coordinated that they could practically be lifted off their feet. If they keep cooking like this, they'll probably start fighting very soon.

Well.

It smells good.

Senzaemon Nakiri smelled a faint aroma of eggs, which undoubtedly wafted from Erina's table.

"Is it really that efficient?"

No.

very strange.

Even Senzaemon Nakiri himself found it somewhat unbelievable.

Why do his granddaughter Erina and this young man named Suze get along so well?

Senzaemon Nakiri had sensed something was wrong before.

Now, Senzaemon Nakiri's level of cooperation is enough to confirm that there's a story between them.

How long has it been?

The first dish is almost finished.

Without a high degree of cooperation to reduce preparation time, such efficiency is impossible.

As for Alice Nakiri, let alone the first dish, given their level of teamwork, it would probably take them an hour or two to finish even one dish.

"It's steamed egg with chicken gizzard."

Senzaemon Nakiri saw the first dish that came out of the oven at Erina's table; it was a very simple home-style medicinal dish.

It's not difficult to cook.

but...

This steamed egg with chicken gizzard looks quite unusual!

Chapter 84 Are their eyes shining?

good smell.

In theory, Senzaemon Nakiri had already developed a slight aversion to the aromas of delicious food; normally speaking, aromas could no longer evoke his appetite.

But this simple home-style dish seemed to be under some kind of magic, and the aroma that filled the air greatly increased Nakiri Senzaemon's appetite.

On another tray, Su Ze reached out and opened a clay pot. As soon as the lid was opened, a refreshing medicinal flavor mixed with a strange umami aroma poured out.

Senzaemon Nakiri took a deep breath, inhaling the scent into his nasal cavity, and his tongue involuntarily began to salivate.

appetite...

I was influenced by it.

and.

This fragrance.

"What a pure and authentic medicinal flavor!" Senzaemon Nakiri couldn't help but exclaim. Moreover, he wondered what kind of recipe was used to use the aroma of food to whet the appetite.

Senzaemon Nakiri's soft exclamation did not affect Suze and Erina's pace in preparing the dish.

Erina Nakiri has always been portrayed as strong, but even the strongest woman has a tender side.

For Erina, one of her weaknesses is her children.

Erina's parents never gave her any affection from childhood. When she was very young, Erina always envied Alice Nakiri for having loving parents.

While the old man did fulfill the role of a guardian and took good care of Erina, he was still not her parent. Sometimes, Erina couldn't express what she wanted.

The old man never took her to amusement parks, nor did he try to coax Erina in any way other than cooking.

Growing up in this environment, Erina Nakiri might say she wouldn't care for her own child, but in her heart she cared for him more than anyone else.

She doesn't want her child to experience the same lack of parental love she had as a child.

Erina is always full of energy and completely dedicated when cooking for her own children.

Especially the dishes prepared for Nakiri Mirai.

Erina unintentionally hurt Nakiri Mirai, so her love for Mirai is the deepest.

"What kind of food are you making?" Senzaemon Nakiri's voice rang in Erina's ears.

"It's a dish I made for the future." Erina Nakiri's attention was completely focused on the dish, and she blurted out the answer when asked this question out of the blue.

"The future?" Senzaemon Nakiri didn't quite understand.

"It's a dish dedicated to a better future," Su Ze explained with lightning-fast reflexes.

They just stubbornly argued.

"These don't seem to have any connection, do they?" Senzaemon Nakiri was slightly taken aback; this was clearly a medicinal meal.

How does medicinal cuisine talk about a better future?

That's way off-topic.

“Syrup,” Erina Nakiri asked from the side.

"Here it is." Su Ze handed over the specially ground syrup liquid.

Erina Nakiri also realized that she had misspoke, but she knew how to resolve the impasse.

It's all a mix of truth and falsehood; just express your feelings.

“This medicinal cuisine represents the path I want to pursue,” Erina Nakiri said in a deep voice. “Living a peaceful life, with children in my family, and then picking up the kitchen utensils to cook the dishes I want for my children.”

"Even though we have nothing now, we'll have something in the future, right?"

Think of this.

Erina Nakiri smiled.

"Is this the explanation for the future?" Senzaemon Nakiri didn't dwell on it; the dish in front of him had already caught his eye, and he couldn't wait to taste it.

Su Ze hadn't expected Erina to be able to smooth things over like that.

However, upon hearing what Erina said, Su Ze also smiled faintly.

on the table.

One dish after another gradually took shape.

Rock sugar hawthorn, white fungus, lily bulb and lotus seed soup, crystal glutinous rice, quail soup, meat soup, steamed egg with chicken gizzard.

These are not particularly difficult dishes, and even beginners can learn them quickly. However, the dishes made by Suze and Erina are unique. Although they are not different in general, there are many changes in the details.

Arrange them neatly on a plate.

Their team meal was officially ready.

Although Senzaemon Nakiri had long wanted to try it, he didn't rush to do it first. Instead, he asked the members of the evaluation team in the audience to come over and film it.

Capture the overall composition of the dish in a photograph.

Time passed by, and dishes from other tables were slowly brought to the table.

Tsukasa Eishi and Akane Kubo Momo made a "White Knight's Dessert Paradise" set meal, while Nakiri Alice and Kurokiba Ryo made a "Wild Seafood and Technological Cuisine" set meal.

Hear the name.

Su Zedu froze for a second.

He knew that Kurokiba Ryo was a seafood chef, while Nakiri Alice was a culinary scientist who used scientific methods to cook.

But I never expected that they would get together like this.

Since each person only knows how to cook their own style of food, once they finish cooking their own dishes, the dishes from both of them are put together and become a team dish.

To symbolically represent the team's cooking.

So they named it 'Wild Seafood and Technological Gourmet Food' to cover up their embarrassment. Oh wow, you guys are something else.

You are worthy of it.

"Excuse me, what's the name of your dish?" a woman dressed in office attire with heavy makeup asked in a seductive tone.

Erina Nakiri, the owner of God Tongue, is in this group. These evaluation teams are either from food programs on various TV stations or members of evaluation teams for food competitions.

Even someone as popular and high-profile as Erina still became the focus of attention.

Suze and Erina Nakiri were asked this question.

The other party didn't ask about that person either.

The two of them froze, deep in thought.

The original name was 'Nakiri Mirai's Growth Package', since both of them are terrible at naming things, so they chose a practical name.

However, this dish certainly cannot be named after its original name at present.

"A dish dedicated to the 'future'." Erina Nakiri and Suze both came up with a good name at the same time.

It's a dish made for Nakiri Mirai, a dish dedicated to that wonderful life in the future, so this name is most fitting.

However, neither Su Ze nor Erina expected that the name the other party thought of would coincide with the name they had thought of.

When giving this answer.

Su Ze and Erina exchanged a glance, then both chuckled softly, and the atmosphere became cheerful with their laughter.

at this time.

As Senzaemon Nakiri carried Erina's table of golden steamed eggs, he was still observing why the dish emitted such an enticing aroma.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Erina Nakiri being surrounded by the evaluation team, being interviewed and asked questions.

He showed a thoughtful expression.

Erina seems to be smiling...

That brat seems to be laughing along with Erina too...

Why do these two people keep looking at each other while they're laughing?

His eyes were still shining like fluorescent light?

Ok?

snort?!
