Universe Infinite Canteen.

Chapter 570 Genius
"Do you really have no interest in cooking?" Qiu Lele asked.

"No," Sun Mei answered confidently, "I hate cooking."

Qiu Lele bit her lip and said, "What if you lose? There are many amazing chefs participating in this competition."

"I've looked at the list of participants on the official website." Sun Mei said.

"Seoul magician Choi Jun-hyun, vegetarian Buddha Luang Pho Sen, Kawano Zhengming of Lonely Island Restaurant, Huaiyang cuisine inheritor Luo Junkang, Brunei prodigy Jeffrey...

"These people are considered to be the more powerful ones, but I am confident that I can defeat them."

"And the millipedes from the Infinite Cafeteria of the Universe."

"what?"

"You forgot to count one person, including Mr. Ma from the Infinite Universe Canteen."

"I've never heard of him. Who did he learn cooking from?"

"The Infinity Cosmic Restaurant has only become popular recently. At first everyone thought it was just an internet celebrity restaurant, but then American critics sent people to try their food and gave it the highest score ever, 4.6 points.

“Among those who gave ratings were Chef Wang and Chef Wei, who both praised the food at the small restaurant.

“In fact, the Infinity Cosmic Restaurant received full marks in all items related to the dishes. The points were mainly deducted in terms of service and decoration. The chef of that restaurant is very mysterious.

"There is almost no information about him available to the outside world. We only know his last name is Wang."

"Wait, didn't you say his name was Malu? Shouldn't his last name be Ma?" Sun Mei discovered the blind spot.

"No, the chef of the Universe Infinite Canteen is indeed surnamed Wang, and the one who came this time is their boss."

Sun Mei was surprised, "How can this happen when someone other than the chef is fighting?"

"Theoretically it's not allowed, but he's the boss, so he's found a loophole in the rules. I guess the relevant regulations will be revised in the next term."

"How cunning! They sent the boss to participate in the competition. Are they worried that if the chef loses, it will affect the reputation of the restaurant?"

"I thought so at first, but then I felt that it wasn't the case. Besides, Mr. Sun insisted on sending him an invitation. Oh, he and Kawano Zhengming are waiting in the car now. Let's go over there quickly."

"Okay." Sun Mei followed Qiu Lele carrying her travel bag.

Qiu Lele had dealt with Kawano Zhengming before and knew his taciturn personality. Moreover, he was a foreigner and could not speak Chinese.

She was worried that the atmosphere in the car would be awkward, which was why she wanted to go back early.

But what she didn't expect was that before she even left the terminal, she saw Malu and Kawano Zhengming coming down the elevator from the second floor.

Each of them was holding a hamburger and talking about something while eating.

"...it's a matter of piercing the fish's brain very quickly with a spike, causing the fish to open its mouth, then cutting off the gills, emptying the spinal cord, and then draining the blood in ice water.

"Fish slaughtered in this way will not feel any pressure before they die," Kawano Zhengming gestured, "If the fish feels threatened by death, it will struggle nervously and consume a lot of ATP.

"ATP is the source of umami, and retaining as much ATP as possible is the key to maintaining umami. Once ATP is consumed, the fish will enter a period of stiffness, and the flavor will drop significantly until it rots and becomes inedible."

"Ah, so that's how it is." Malu said, "I also had a friend who was very good at processing ingredients, but it wasn't seafood, it was animal meat, and he also had similar steps."

"Yes, these slaughtering techniques are the same. Indeed, when processing game, it is also necessary to bleed and remove the spinal cord." Kawano Zhengming nodded.

At this time, Malu saw Qiu Lele and Sun Mei and waved at them.

Qiu Lele opened her mouth wide, "You, what are you doing?"

"Oh, I asked Kawano if he wanted to eat something, and he was hungry, so we went to McDonald's and bought hamburgers." Malu raised the hamburger in his hand. "No, I mean why can you communicate? Can you speak Japanese?"

"will not."

"what?"

"It might be the tacit understanding between top chefs that inspired a resonance in our souls." Malu lied.

Kawano Zhengming also said in Japanese, "I have also heard that the Eskimo shaman can communicate with the soul."

"........."

Qiu Lele didn't know what to say anymore, and finally could only say, "This is my fault. I forgot to ask you if you have eaten."

"It doesn't matter. It's nice to try McDonald's occasionally." Malu said.

“I’m thinking of adding a burger to the restaurant’s menu,” Kawano said.

“Can you please stop talking to me about the same thing, one of you in Chinese and the other in Japanese? It feels weird.” Qiu Lele felt like she was going crazy.

"Okay, this is..." Malu turned his gaze to another woman next to Qiu Lele, who was wearing jeans and carrying a travel bag.

"Sun Mei, the head chef of Song Xiang Ju." Sun Mei stretched out his hand and shook hands with each of them.

"Ah, you are that Sun Mei, the one from President Sun, the one..."

"That rebellious granddaughter, yes, it was me." Sun Mei helped Ma Lu finish his words.

"What I actually wanted to say was genius granddaughter."

"It's okay, just tell the truth. By the way, you must be Mr. Ma of the Universe Infinite Canteen, right? I heard that Senior Brother Wang and Senior Brother Wei both spoke highly of your restaurant.

"It's a pity that Chef Wang, who actually cooked the dishes, didn't come. Otherwise, it might have caused me more trouble in winning the title of God of Cooking this time."

Malu raised his eyebrows, "Oh, it seems that you are very confident, Chef Sun."

"Of course." Sun Mei said without hesitation, "If it wasn't for the first place, I wouldn't have come back to compete."

Although Kawano Masayoshi didn't understand what Sun Mei was saying, perhaps it was because they were both top chefs and had a tacit understanding, or it could be that he had really practiced with an Eskimo shaman.

Hearing this, he nodded and said seriously, "I want to defeat all my opponents and reach the top."

"Eat your burger. With me here, you can only compete for second place." Malu sneered at the two people's declaration of victory.

"Let's wait and see." Sun Mei said.

After saying that, she walked towards the parking lot with her head held high.

"Has she always been so rampant?" Malu asked Qiu Lele.

Qiu Lele shook her head. "She used to be even more arrogant, but she has become much more restrained since she came back from going abroad. I heard that she studied painting in France... but it wasn't going so well."

"Oh, no wonder you came back to be a chef again."

"She didn't come back to be a chef," Qiu Lele said, "Forget it, it's not important. Do me a favor and teach her a lesson."

"Well, I thought you were friends, or were you just superficial friends?" Malu smelled gossip, "Could it be that you had a crush on the same boy in high school? You have a grudge against her."

"No, actually Mr. Sun wanted her to experience some frustration in the cooking field," Qiu Lele replied.
