"Food Festival?"
In an elegantly decorated top-notch restaurant on Winter Avenue in Miale City, Zhi Mi was wearing a chef's white shirt. He frowned slightly and said,
"Don't disturb me from researching new dishes for such trivial matters."
"But this time, it's jointly organized by the Miale Chamber of Commerce. Even the Xiuli Hotel is participating. It's a precious publicity opportunity … Chef Zhi Mi, are you sure you don't want to consider it?" The agent persuaded.
"There's no need to participate."
The bottom of the pot sizzled and the butter melted. Zhi Mi held the pan and said lightly, "Compared to publicity, there's a higher realm waiting for me to explore … That is the art of cooking."
Beside Zhi Mi, an octopus bucket tied its tentacles to a kitchen knife and was cutting carrots on the chopping board. There was also a steel cannon lobster. It opened its large lobster pincers and used the water from its pincers to clean wild apples.
The agent looked at the back of Zhi Mi's white robe. The chef and his Pokémon divided the work in an orderly manner. Although they were cooking, it was like a painting of art.
Zhi Mi was known as the 'Legendary Chef', and in the field of Pokémon battles, he was at the level of a Heavenly King.
If there was anyone who could compete with Zhi Mi … …
The agent thought for a moment and spoke again.
"Chef Zhi Mi, there's a very special guest in this Food Festival. You should be interested."
"Who? Is it the Pokémon Bartender or Alola's special chef? "Zhi Mi stirred the bottom of the soup pot and asked calmly.
The chefs of the Union Group were known for their "good wine", and the chefs of Alola were famous for their unique island flavors.
Zhi Mi had competed with chefs from various regions and knew their styles like the back of his hand.
"It's from Donghuang … uh … the former champion. It's said that he's the current special chef, Mr. Lu Ye."
Clang!
The octopus bucket stopped cutting vegetables, and the steel cannon lobster closed its pincers. The agent was slightly surprised. The three of them looked at Zhi Mi at the same time.
This' Legendary Chef 'actually let go of the spoon and hit the wall of the pot with a crisp sound!
Zhi Mi was calm. He picked up a handkerchief to wipe his hands and turned around. A rare trace of enthusiasm flashed in his eyes.
The agent said in a daze, "Chef Zhi Mi …"
"Announcing Zhi Mi Restaurant's participation, Upitt."
Zhi Mi's eyes were sharp, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose. That was his respect for the "Champion Chef" and his excitement to explore the field of cooking.
Mr. Lu, let's start a cooking duel that's comparable to art!
…
South Street, Riot Coffee Shop.
"Come on, sorry to keep you waiting. Pikachu pudding and rice with fried eggs ~"
The young and handsome store manager held a plate in his hand. Under the little girl's sparkling eyes, he placed the pudding that popped up on QQ and the omelet rice with ketchup on the table.
"I'm going to eat!" the little girl said loudly.
"Sorry to trouble you …" The little girl's father said with some trepidation, "You actually served the dishes yourself …"
Seeing was believing. The manager of this mysterious coffee shop that required a reservation was actually the champion of the league.
Even the impact of going to Zhi Mi Restaurant was not as strong as the scene in front of him.
"What are you saying?" Lu Ye said with a smile, "For a chef, there's nothing happier than seeing the smiles on the customers' faces when the dishes are served."
"Is that so? Haha …" The man let out a sigh of relief with a smile.
"Then, please excuse me."
Lu Ye bowed slightly and turned back to the kitchen. Frost Milk Fairy was cooking desserts. When she saw Lu Ye come in silently, she was startled.
"Yi Mu! ∑!" (̄ Д ̄ ノ) ノ "
"Don't panic, it's me. You can rest in a quarter of an hour." Lu Ye said with a smile.
"Yi Mu …"
Frost Milk Fairy put her hand on her chest. Her strawberry-colored body seemed to be flowing with cream, exuding a sweet fragrance that made people want to have a taste.
Lu Ye pursed his lips and said, "Frost Milk Fairy, I have something to discuss with you."
"Yi Mu?"
"Next time you use your own cream to make desserts, I will help you evaluate them." Lu Ye said seriously.
Frost Milk Fairy's face was red. She was wearing strawberry candy ornaments, and her crystal eyes were shining like rubies. She nodded shyly.
"Yi, Yi Mu …"
Since it was to make better desserts … then there was no other way …
It was almost noon. The little girl took her father's hand and left. She turned around and waved her hand. She said full of energy, "Geng Gui, goodbye!"
"Jie ~" Geng Gui bared his teeth. His chubby purple body stood on the ground and waved his hand.
Goodbye, come and play often!
Turning around, Geng Gui's scarlet eyes narrowed. He laughed again, "Jie ~"
Ding Ling Ling —
The crisp sound of the wind chime rang.
The messenger bird carried the luggage and shook its head. Its hair was wet, and its black eyes were particularly bright. "Woo!"
Boss, I'm off work. I'm back for the staff meal!
"Lunch is already being made. Take a break first."
Lu Ye put his hands in his apron pocket and walked slowly to the messenger bird. He poured a glass of iced lemonade for the little penguin.
The messenger bird put down the luggage first and bowed. Then, it held the lemonade with its two small hands and raised its head.
"Woo —"
The coffee shop was filled with the silence of the afternoon. Only the whispers of the Pokémon could be heard. The sun shone through the glass windows and fell on the potted plants, the bar counter, and the wine cabinet.
Lu Ye stood behind the bar counter. He leaned forward and rested his cheek on his hand. He was lost in thought as he stared at the Pokémon in front of him.
The snow-white Fairy Ibu was curled up on the brown sofa. A beam of sunlight fell on its body, and it looked gentle and lovely as it slept.
Pokeby sat on the back of the Wind Dog, who was lying on the ground, holding a game console.
Mr. Lu had also bought a set of gaming equipment for Biktini. Little V floated beside Biktini, fully focused.
The Water Arrow Turtle stayed in the water tank in the back room. Bankieras was chewing diamonds in the atrium. The Onion Ranger was taking an afternoon nap …
Lu Ye unconsciously rubbed his eyes and felt a little sleepy. He yawned and walked slowly to the sofa. He picked up Fairy Ibu and covered it with a thin blanket.
"Little Luo, hang a closed sign outside the shop."
Lu Ye said lazily, "Meroita, come and play a BGM to help you sleep."
Meroita's long hair rippled in the air. Her eyes glowed with an emerald green light, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Meroita ~ ♪"
Looking around at the Pokémon in the shop, Meroita put her hand on her chest and sang softly into the microphone beside her ear.
For a moment, the shop was filled with gentle singing. It was afternoon.
Mr. Lu held Fairy Ibu until dusk. He lay on the sofa and had a good sleep …
Then he had a stiff pillow.
…
In the chat group.
The topic in the group was related to the upcoming Food Festival.
"The Food Festival in Miale City?"
Citron thought for a moment and said, "I think it's to commemorate the harvest and the contribution of the Earth God, Kigard, to the ecological balance."
"I remember that the whole square will be filled with delicious food!" Zulika said.
"There will also be chefs from various regions coming to Miale City to seek better culinary skills," Serena recalled. "I saw this in the Miale City manual."
Xiaozhi scratched his head. "Serena, aren't you going to participate in the Triple Champion Satellite Competition? You can go back to Miale City to prepare. You can reach Biyi City in a day. "
The next round of the Triple Champion Satellite Competition would be held in Biyi City. It would also be Serena's first time participating.
Mikeli put his hand on his chin and pondered.
The Triple Champion Satellite Competition … was a performance competition unique to the Carlos region.
It was a pity that the Mikeli Cup was not famous enough in Carlos … Compared to a coordinator, people preferred a performer. Mikeli shook his head helplessly.
"Yes." Serena nodded and said, "Zulika and I are very interested in the Food Festival."
Zulika: [Happily Thumping Mouse.jpg]
"I might travel to the Carlos region in the near future." Xiao Gang narrowed his eyes.
"Oh?" Lu Ye held his neck and said in surprise, "Jiro is in charge of the training hall?"
Xiao Gang nodded and said, "This time, I was invited by Mr. Chaklo to participate in the exchange battle between the masters of the rock training hall."
The masters of the rock training hall were different.
Lu Ye thought that Xiao Gang's Mega Steel Snake was at least in the top two among the masters of the rock training hall. Only the captain of the island, Lizi, who controlled Rock Z, had a chance of beating Xiao Gang.
The strength of a trainer was closely related to his temperament. Xiao Gang raised his younger brother and sister alone. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was a "real man".
Lu Ye looked up at the sky.
"Since there's an eating competition … I guess Ami will also participate …"
After all, she was the "black hole" girl who had won many eating competitions consecutively …
In this Food Festival, other than the eating competition, Mr. Lu cared about the other two events.
The first was the delicious juice competition.
Different crucibles, tree fruits, and different ratios would brew different flavors.
The most popular juice would be selected in this competition. The staff in the shop, Sweet Dancer, had a strong interest in winning the championship.
The second was the cooking competition.
They would choose the most popular restaurant owner and the most highly acclaimed head chef.
In other words …
This was a battlefield between chefs in the alliance.
A battle of eating halberds!
Lu Ye clenched his fists, and a raging fire burned in his eyes.
I'll bet my reputation as the UP Master of the food section.
I must win this battle of eating halberds!
Crack!
Lu Ye: "Ouch, it hurts, it hurts. My neck is stiff. Latias, come and heal me!"
"I! Come! La! " Latias swooped down.
Lu Ye: "Don't use the Dragon God to dive down!"
"Hehe, I'm just kidding ~" Latias' eyes curved, and he scratched his head with his little claws.
Lu Ye: "…"
He almost attracted the renovation team … He escaped a disaster!
…
November 4th, Thursday, sunny.
Shenao Alliance was peaceful. Big Ye went to the Harsh Mountain to cultivate, Liu went to the Hundredgeneration Forest to catch insects, and Grandma Kikuno was on duty in the administration building.
Wu Song rarely had time, so he went to the Shuimei City Library to read the books he liked.
Sirona patrolled the Tianguan Mountain. After finishing her daily work, she thought for a moment and commanded the Fiery-Bite Land Shark to fly in the direction of Carlos.
In less than two hours, the graceful and elegant Sirona in black appeared at the corner of the street in Miale City.
The sun was just right. Lu Ye was studying a new dish in the open-air kitchen. He looked up at the ringing wind chimes.
Slightly stunned, Lu Ye smiled helplessly. "Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
"I finished my work, so I suddenly wanted to see you."
Sirona put her hands on her slim waist, and her blonde hair covered her face. She looked valiant. "Can't I?"
"Ka Ao!" The Fiery-Bite Land Shark opened its sickles and stood behind Zhu Lan with a sharp gaze.
"If you had told me in advance, I could have prepared a new flavor of ice cream." Lu Ye spread his hands.
"Hmm …" Sirona's beautiful face showed a tinge of regret. "You don't have to go through so much trouble."
"It's not too late to do it now," Lu Ye said.
Sirona stared at Lu Ye quietly. After a while, she smiled and nodded gently.
**
The strawberry cream was produced by the Frost Milk Deity, the ice cubes were soaked in the clear water of the Unmelting Ice, and the fruit was sweet and sour grape.
Lu Ye explained as he made, "The sour and sweet taste of the grape is a perfect duet. It's also very delicious when paired with the salad."
Sirona nodded from time to time and said, "Sometimes I feel that you are a scholar, and sometimes I feel that you are a famous fruit maker. Then you became the champion of the league …"
"Zeng Ren." Lu Ye corrected her.
"Your current champion is also the champion of the league."
Sirona raised her snow-white neck and said coquettishly.
Lu Ye was stunned. He looked up at Sirona. Her proud face had a tinge of red. She avoided his gaze and brushed aside the blonde hair on her cheeks.
This was the first time he saw a cute and coquettish scene.
"She won't be in a few years," Lu Ye said lightly as he peeled the fruit.
Zhu Lan was slightly dazed. She frowned and cast a cold gaze:??
"She will become the mother of my child, my battle legend."
Zhu Lan was stunned for a moment. She raised her long eyelashes and stared at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye smiled, suddenly at a loss of what to do.
The eyes of the Mystics champion, who had always been graceful and noble, were slightly red. She immediately turned her face away.
"Ka! (▼ ▼ Pu ▼) "
The Fiery-Bite Land Shark's scythe glowed red. It was just short of slashing with its dragon claws.
Lu Ye: o (̄ Д ̄) っ!
Misunderstanding!
He would probably have to spend the night at the Sprite Center!
Under the cover of her blonde hair, a smile appeared on Zhu Lan's tall and exquisite face.
"… You're not angry anymore?" Lu Ye asked tentatively.
"Ice cream," Zhu Lan said coldly.
"Here …" Lu Ye handed over the ice cream.
Zhu Lan calmly examined the glass. Then, she silently put her palms together and picked up the spoon.
She gently scooped a spoonful and brought it to her red lips.
Sirona:???????????
So sweet!
Mr. Lu breathed a sigh of relief.
The danger was gone … probably!
***
"Is it really okay to let Shang Ren be the champion after you retire?"
Sirona scooped the ice cream and asked lightly.
"It's mainly because I have to work overtime … If I don't work overtime, I won't let Shang Ren take over," Lu Ye said very honestly.
"Oh …" Sirona nodded silently.
She didn't understand. He was probably a diligent trainer like Wu Song.
"Do you want to go to the food festival this weekend? There are a few famous dessert vendors coming, "Lu Ye said.
"There's plenty of time." Sirona pondered and said, "I heard that Doracena will also be participating in this event, so I want to meet her."
"Doracena?"
"Yes, she's also a trainer in Shenhe Town. She's currently the Dragon King of Carlos."
Seeing the confusion in Lu Ye's eyes, Sirona calmly said,
"Just as you thought, she's a distant relative of mine."
Shenhe Town often had Dragon Faction trainers. This was similar to the Dragon Faction in Yanmo City and the Dragon Faction.
Mr. Lu was the least afraid of the Dragon Faction … After all, he still had the Fairy Slate.
As long as Zeus didn't wake up, the Fairy Slate would be his! (Wrong)
Near the end of the year, events in Miale City became more frequent. Plus, Mr. Lu's status as a retired champion attracted a lot of invitations.
The next day, Lu Ye, who was preparing a new dish, received an unexpected invitation.
"I'm the chairman of the committee of the Triple Champion Satellite Competition."
The other party said politely, "Mr. Lu Ye, may I ask if you have time to attend the Biyi Satellite Competition next week as a judge?"
Lu Ye was slightly stunned.
That's right … In addition to being a chef, I'm also a master of coordination!
"Who are the contestants?" Lu Ye's heart skipped a beat.
"Uh … Let me see. There's Shana, Musashi Wei, Serena …"
Lu Ye was suddenly stunned. He recalled the chat in the group and accepted the invitation.
"No problem."
