People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

At this moment, Kirari, who was sitting on her bed applying lipstick, saw that everyone was unusually united in their surprise at why she was waking up early, and Kirari's mentality was starting to break down.

"These guys... huh?! Sonoko even dared to come along? Very well~"

On the other side, Sonoko Suzuki, who was walking towards the classroom, suddenly felt a chill run through her body and felt unwell, as if she were being watched by something. Just as she was wondering what was going on, she saw a unicorn... oops... a beautiful girl walking over.

Good morning, Sonoko! You're here so early today!

"Huh? Good morning, Xiaolan! It's my turn to be on duty today! I completely forgot, I guess I'm still not quite back to my senses from talking to Baiyu-ge~ Hmm~ Thinking of Baiyu-ge gives me so much motivation!"

Ran just smiled when she saw Sonoko's infatuated expression. If it were anyone else, Ran would be a little worried, but if it were Shiraha, Ran was quite at ease. Besides, she could tell that Sonoko really liked him; her phone screen was covered with photos of Shiraha.

"Xiao Lan~ Let's go to Bai Yu's place again sometime! I had finally managed to build up some resistance to Bai Yu's cooking, but now it's all gone~"

Ran covered her mouth and chuckled, saying, "Hmm~ Let's go again sometime. I really admire Manager Shiraha's cooking. Thank you, Sonoko, for taking me there before; otherwise, I wouldn't have known there was such an amazing restaurant. I'll take Mom there to try it sometime~"

"Huh? Auntie? I thought you were going to bring Shinichi or Uncle Mori along~"

Ran, unusually, shook her head and said, "I always felt that place wasn't suitable for Dad and Shinichi..."

"That's the right way to think! Otherwise, Brother Baiyu would also be driven crazy by that blockhead and Uncle Maoli~ Ah! I'm going to class now! See you later!"

Watching the garden disappear from view, Ran Mouri sighed and murmured, "Sigh... you blockhead..."

As students begin their journey to school or take their seats, their day begins, marking the gradual transition from morning to daytime.

As Bai Yu was pondering where to go, a girl ran in. It was none other than Yuuki Asuna, whom he had met before, and Nanami Minami's class representative.

"Phew~ Luckily the store wasn't closed. Can I take an order, manager?"

"Of course~ What would you like to eat?"

"Manager, I'd like a vegetarian sandwich and a carton of orange juice!"

"Looks like it needs to be packed up. No rush, it'll be quick. I know Katagiri's class schedule, I won't be late."

A few minutes later, after paying, Asuna, holding her breakfast, sighed with relief and said, "Thank you, Manager Shiraha! I stayed up too late last night writing the event plan, and my car even had to be taken in for servicing... Ah! I have to go now! Goodbye, Manager Shiraha!"

After saying that, she ran out, completely unrecognizable as a young lady. But soon after, Asuna ran back and said to Shiraha, "Manager Shiraha, my mother said she'd like to have a meal here sometime in a while. Do you need a reservation code?"

"No need, I don't have many customers here. You'd better hurry up!"

"Oh! Goodbye, manager!"

Watching Asuna Yuuki disappear into the distance, Shiraha smiled and shook his head, saying, "Hmm~ She really is a very energetic girl, quite the student... a student..."

"Lucifer~"

"Ok?"

"I think I know where we're going today!"

"Huh?! Where is this place?"

"Totsuki~ We can come with Grandpa then, so we won't have to worry about time or dinner. After all, Totsuki is a culinary academy~"

Lucifer thought about it for a moment and agreed it was a very good idea. He nodded and said with a smile, "Should we tell Longdan and the others?"

"Of course not, isn't that what makes it fun?"

P.S.: I'm not going to be a teacher, I'm just going to take on a role, cough cough...

Chapter 175 Pikachu: Are you being polite? (Please subscribe~)

"Is Lucifer still dissatisfied?"

Lucifer gave a haughty snort, then quietly put away the developed photos. They were photos that Bai Yu had taken during the sneak attack the previous night, and Lucifer was indeed not prepared for them.

So today, Bai Yu brought Lucifer to a professional photo studio instead of a regular photo studio for ID photos. Lucifer and Cerberus naturally didn't need makeup or anything; they were completely natural, and their skin wouldn't get worse even if they didn't sleep for a long time.

Lucifer finally breathed a sigh of relief after taking many group photos. To be honest, if the very first photo were actually displayed, she would be too embarrassed to show her face. Although it was also very pretty, he was the only one who was a bit blurry and hadn't even opened his eyes yet. Who could stand that?

Bai Yu smiled and shook his head as he watched Lucifer carefully put away the photos. He had a lot of happy things happening to him today, because while they were having breakfast, a completely emotionless voice appeared in his mind and said, "Congratulations, Master, you have gained the approval of nineteen guests from other worlds and established bonds with many of them." (Communicating with the shop is entirely through thought.)

Bai Yu silently counted for a moment, then realized something was wrong and asked in confusion, "But aren't there already twenty guests? Or is one of the guests dissatisfied?"

"Pikachu isn't a guest..." (Pikachu: Aren't you polite?!)

Bai Yu almost burst out laughing. He wondered if Pikachu would be completely dumbfounded if it heard this. It was just too funny.

However, there's no difference between nineteen and twenty. It seems that in order to help Bai Yu gather twenty people quickly, there have been more visitors from the other world in the past two days.

This should be the best news Bai Yu heard this morning. Everyone has a different attitude towards life, but most people would expect either an ordinary morning or some good news to say good morning to them.

Clearly, Bai Yu is the lucky one in the second category. If he gets good news in the morning, it will be enough to make him happy all day.

"Master... Shiraha, Shiraha, Shiraha! It seems we're almost at Totsuki!"

Bai Yu was taken aback. It was indeed almost time to reach the Far Moon, but how did Cerberus know that? However, considering that Cerberus remembered things about people and things that interested him very clearly, he didn't say anything.

At this time, Totsuki Culinary Academy was filled with the aroma of books and food. Yes, the aroma of books. Although Totsuki Culinary Academy is a pure culinary academy, it is not just a place to learn how to cook.

Totsuki Culinary Academy is one of the best culinary academies in the world. In addition, many of its students are young masters and ladies from wealthy families. No business owner would want to hand over their hard work to a child who can only cook, nor would they send their child to a school that only teaches cooking skills.

Therefore, in addition to cooking, Totsuki Academy also teaches all the normal cultural courses, language courses, economics courses, etc. To put it simply, it is an elite training academy that focuses on cooking.

Erina came to class because she didn't have time to sample the food. Unlike the other members of the Elite Ten, Erina was only a first-year high school student and had a lot to learn.

She is also a person who pursues excellence and perfection. She will not miss any opportunity to improve herself. Therefore, Erina rarely chooses not to attend classes when there is no tasting, unless she suddenly has a culinary inspiration and goes to practice.

Erina sat in the last row of the classroom, frowning as she looked at the teacher below who was teaching vegetable soup, but she didn't say anything. Hisako, sitting next to her, whispered, "Something feels off..."

Erina turned and glanced at Hisako, who hesitated for a moment before quickly saying in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Ms. Erina, I..."

Erina waved her hand and said, "Hisako, you're right. Although this is the standard procedure, I still feel like something's not quite right..."

Hisako breathed a sigh of relief and then whispered, "I remember someone ordering a thick soup at Manager Shiraha's shop..."

"Atobe?"

"Yes! I feel that Mr. Atobe's soup didn't have that many ingredients, but it was still very flavorful..."

Erina crossed her arms, thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, that's definitely right, but it's standard practice. Manager Shiraha is truly amazing..."

Hisako nodded repeatedly. Shiraha was handsome, talented at a young age, gentle and considerate, and had a very positive outlook on life. It was rare to dislike someone like that, and Hisako respected Shiraha very much.

At this point, Erina lost interest in listening to the lecture. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly smiled and said, "Hisako, why don't you come with me to Manager Shiraha's shop during the practical training? You'll definitely learn something there!"

Hisako was clearly very interested. Shiraha's skills were definitely beyond what an ordinary chef could match, and there was no doubt that she could learn a great deal at his restaurant.

However, Hisako was well aware that Shiraha's shop was clearly at the level of the Elite Ten, and she wasn't qualified to go. Erina, seemingly sensing Hisako's thoughts, said with a smile, "Hisako~ Since Grandpa said that the Elite Ten can choose their own shops, and that the decision was made after going to Manager Shiraha's place, then Grandpa was originally planning for us to go to Manager Shiraha's place as a hidden restaurant. We can just tell Grandpa when the time comes~"

Hisako thought for a moment and then her eyes lit up. What kind of shop is this? It's all just a bluff. It's just to let Erina go to Shiraha to study. In that case, we can basically apply to go to that shop as soon as we find it. It's a benefit for our own people!

Seeing Hisako's realization, Erina nodded. Hisako was more than just Erina's secretary; she had been by her side since childhood, through the darkest times. Although Hisako always treated her like a secretary, Erina always considered her her best friend.

"Let's go find the old man first, then we can go for a stroll."

Just as Erina was about to say something, she suddenly heard a familiar voice. Hisako whispered, "That voice sounds like Manager Shiraha..."

Erina nodded and was about to say something when she heard a voice: "Shiraha, Shiraha, Shiraha! Rindou probably won't be in class, right?"

"Maybe... He's probably sleeping."

The sound gradually faded, and Erina and Hisako were somewhat excited. It really was Shiraha and Cerberus! They had come to Totsuki! Thinking of this, Erina didn't care about class anymore; she already knew the material. She simply grabbed Hisako, told her she had work, and slipped away. The teacher and classmates had nothing to say, only envy...

Chapter 176 People Aren't Strong (Please Subscribe~)

After Erina pulled Hisako out, they didn't see Shiraha and the others, but they were absolutely certain that Shiraha and Cerberus had arrived. Shiraha's voice was very distinctive, and Cerberus, along with her habit of repeating herself three times at the beginning, basically confirmed that it was these two.

"Miss Erina, it seemed like Manager Shiraha was saying he was going to see the Commander-in-Chief..."

"Yeah! Let's go too. Maybe Manager Baiyu is here to give a lecture. If that's the case, we'd be missing out!"

"Ok!"

Erina's idea was quite good, but Shiraha was just here to stroll around and mooch a meal. Sometimes he cooks and enjoys cooking, but that doesn't mean he wants to eat his own cooking all the time.

"Hmm? This food preparation report seems to be missing something..."

"Is one page missing?"

"Ok!"

"Hmm~"

While dealing with government affairs, Senzaemon Nakiri suddenly noticed that the summary report submitted by the food department seemed to be missing something. The quantity of food was less than half. Just as he was wondering about this, a report sheet appeared in front of him.

Senzaemon Nakiri picked it up, glanced at it, nodded, and then suddenly froze. He looked up and saw a smiling man looking at the ingredient department report he had seen before—none other than Shiraha.

Bai Yu has already sent Lucifer to take Cerberus out to play. With Lucifer around, there's nothing to worry about with Cerberus. Besides, almost everyone at school knows the three of them, so there's no concern about any dramatic plot twists.

Senzaemon Nakiri, seeing Shiraha's appearance, put down the report and said with a smile, "It really is you, kid! What are you doing at Totsuki today? Did you come to class?"

Bai Yu wasn't one for formalities. Being overly polite with acquaintances would only create distance. Bai Yu simply sat down on the sofa and said with a smile, "Of course not, Grandpa. We may be close, but you can't treat people like this."

Senzaemon Nakiri stopped working, leaned back, and said with a smile, "I knew you'd say that. So, what brings you here today..."

Bai Yu, playing with an orange in his hand, said, "Didn't Nakiri Managi and the others come over tonight? I was planning to go out for a stroll during the day, but Lucifer said that because of my curse, there are too many guests tonight, so forget about dinner. He told me to go somewhere not too far away so I can go back early for dinner~"

Senzaemon Nakiri understood what he meant and said with a smile, "So you came all the way to Totsuki, planning to have dinner here too, and hitch a ride!"

"Bingo~ I heard from Mr. Yukihira that you, Grandpa, are going too, so of course I have to come here. Mind if I come here for a free meal?"

"Hahaha! Of course I don't mind! In fact, I'd love to, it's a good opportunity to offer more advice!"

"That shouldn't be a problem. By the way, sir, there are two things missing from the groceries you bought this time."

Senzaemon Nakiri paused, picked up the report, glanced at it, and frowned before saying, "Hmm? It's chicken and butter...looks like I should ask about it, you brat..."

"It really is Shop Manager Shiraha!"

Upon hearing this voice, Senzaemon Nakiri was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Alright! Since you're here to have fun today, I won't say anything more to you."

Bai Yu nodded and walked out. Senzaemon Nakiri glanced at the group photo beside him, a hint of anticipation appearing on his aged, serious face. He said softly, "Managi...shouldn't she be heading to the airport now...sigh...old people are so sentimental..."

Erina's face was flushed with excitement as she ran over and saw Bai Yu. Bai Yu smiled and said, "How did you two know I was here? And why were you running so fast?"

As he spoke, Bai Yu tidied Erina's slightly disheveled hair, which had become a little messy from running, and nodded with a smile. Erina blushed slightly and said, "Because you and Cerberus passed by our classroom just now, Manager Bai Yu, and we heard you."

Bai Yu paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Is that the classroom where they teach how to make thick soup? The teacher was quite interesting, so you guys skipped class?"

Erina naturally skipped the topic of skipping class and said with a puzzled look, "Eh? Interesting? Shiraha-sensei and I feel that the way that soup is made is a bit strange."

Bai Yu smiled and said, "It is indeed strange, but it can't be called wrong. It's just that it's far from good. If you make a thick soup like that, it will only be thick. The essence of a thick soup is that rich and mellow feeling."

Erina nodded and then said expectantly, "Manager Shiraha! Are you here for class today?"

Seeing Erina's expectant look, Shiraha shook his head and said, "Of course not, I'm just an ordinary restaurant owner~ I'm not very good at taking care of students or anything like that. I didn't have anywhere to go today, and I was looking for a place to have dinner, so I came here~"

"Eh?! Manager Shiraha, you're having dinner here? But the food here is nowhere near as good as what you make."

"Erina~ The essence of food is simply to fill your stomach. What's added on top of that is delicious flavor and amazing texture. Eating is just eating~"

Erina nodded. Although she didn't quite understand, she had nothing to refute. Given Shiraha's strength, Erina would listen to what he said.

Bai Yu stretched and looked at the school, which he had visited once but was still not very familiar with. He thought for a moment and said, "Hmm~ Where should we go for a stroll... Erina, you guys should hurry back to class too."

Erina shook her head without thinking and said, "Manager Shiraha, we don't need to go to class in the first place. Besides, it's better to follow Manager Shiraha than to learn things we already know. After all, I have a lot of questions to ask Manager Shiraha."

"Okay~ Huh? Are those students over there...?"

Just as Shiraha was about to ask Erina what she wanted to eat, he saw a blue-haired girl sitting on a stone bench in front of him, hugging her knees, her face full of sadness.

"What am I going to do... I got an E again... If I get it again, I'll be expelled!"

"But I don't want to leave... Mom... what should I do..."

The girl was on the verge of tears as she spoke. Sometimes helplessness is that simple. Just one comment can be the last straw that breaks a person's back. People are not as strong as we imagine.

Shiraha didn't let Erina and Hisako follow him; instead, he went alone. Erina was quite famous at school, and if he went with her, the girl might be scared.

Bai Yu only heard what the girl was saying when he got closer, and he was immediately taken aback because the girl seemed to be in a rather precarious situation.

Why is this student still outside before get out of class is over?
