Chapter 20 Misora's Partiality

"Battle Rabbit, you must bring Qiao back!"

In the base, Misora ​​was furious. He clenched a hammer in his hand and slammed it hard on the table, making a loud bang.

Her glare was as sharp as a knife, sweeping over Sento and Ryuga, who were standing nearby. They were practically overwhelmed by her presence, afraid to even raise their heads. As for the store manager, it was unknown when he vanished.

"You must rescue Aqiao as soon as possible, otherwise..."

Misora ​​narrowed her eyes and spoke in a low voice, yet it contained an undeniable threat: "You are dead."

Battle Rabbit wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and tried to ease the atmosphere: "Misora, calm down. Qiao was just taken away for investigation. He should be fine."

"calm?"

Meikong raised the hammer high in his hand, pretending to smash it, which scared Longwo so much that he quickly took a step back!
The volume of her voice increased a hundredfold as Meikong roared, "You're still dawdling here. What if something happens to Aqiao over there? If you don't bring him back today, don't come back to see me!"

"Etc., etc!"

Long Wo quickly waved his hands and was about to say something when suddenly a familiar voice came from the door.

"No, I'm back."

Onoue Takumi strode in with his usual nonchalant smile on his face.

The moment Misora ​​heard the sound, the hammer in her hand fell to the ground with a snap, and the anger on her face disappeared without a trace, replaced by an extremely gentle smile.

"Welcome back, Aqiao."

Her tone was as gentle as a spring breeze, as if the person who had just gotten angry was not her at all.

Sento and Ryuga were stunned, looking at Misora's changes in surprise.

Ryuga secretly poked Zhantu's arm and muttered quietly, "This woman's expression changes so quickly it's too scary, isn't it?"

A bit frightened, Battle Rabbit nodded and whispered back, "I think it's best to just stay quiet."

Onoue Takumi walked over to Misora ​​and sat down, seemingly oblivious to the atmosphere. He waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm back safely, aren't I?"

"As long as you're okay."

Misora's gentle tone made Sento and Ryuga beside her break out in cold sweats.
"Oh, I still have to prepare dinner."

Thinking of this, Onoue Takumi took out a bunch of fresh vegetables from his backpack and piled them on the table while speaking.

With his signature smile on his face, he spoke cheerfully, "That Prime Minister is truly generous, sending us a lot of agricultural and sideline products. It's truly a bumper day!"

Hearing this, Zhantu couldn't help but hold his forehead and grumbled softly: "Is this guy going to the city hall to broadcast live, or to participate in the picking festival?"

Misora ​​glanced at the vegetables on the table and said calmly, "No need, let me prepare dinner."

"what?!"

Long Wo immediately got angry when he heard this, and protested: "Why me? Aqiao's cooking skills are so good, and my cooking skills are so bad."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt an invisible sense of oppression.

Misora ​​slowly turned around with a gentle smile on her face, but the aura she exuded was like the cold wind in the dead of winter, which made Long shiver.

"Is that so, Longwo?"

Misora's tone was gentle, but it contained an unquestionable authority.

Longwo immediately straightened up and replied incoherently, "Yes, yes, yes! I'll get ready. I'll be there right away!"

After saying that, he turned and rushed to the kitchen as if escaping, fearing that staying for another second would lead to even more terrible consequences.

Onoue Takumi looked at Ryuga's hurried back and couldn't help laughing: "You've worked so hard, Ryuga."

He sat down and casually took a bite of a carrot, his tone as relaxed as a bystander enjoying the fun. Misora ​​sat down again as if nothing had happened, regaining her previous composure, as if the fierce momentum from before had never existed.

Battle Rabbit wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "As expected, the person in this family who should not be offended the most is Misora."

"Let me make you some coffee."

When Zhantu heard this, he immediately showed a look of joy: "Great! As expected, Aqiao's coffee making skills are reliable. Those weird things the store manager brews are really unbearable."

Hearing this, Onoue Takumi couldn't help but smile. He pulled a few bags of coffee beans from the cabinet, randomly picked a few and placed them on the table. As he expertly prepared the utensils, he said, "The manager actually bought quite a few good coffee beans, each one very expensive. But unfortunately, he doesn't understand the differences between them and relies entirely on his imagination to tinker with them."

"No wonder."

Thinking back to those dark cuisine coffees with strange colors and weird tastes, Zhantu couldn't help but sigh.

“Every time I drink his coffee it’s like an adventure.”

As Onoue expertly ground the coffee beans, he chuckled and jokingly said, "He's probably experimenting with the beans. He probably doesn't even know what he's going to get in the end."

"I believe it,"

"But this time I can finally drink something normal."

Onoue smiled cleverly, his hands moving more and more smoothly, and the aroma of brewing coffee soon filled the entire room.

He poured a few cups, placed them on the table and pushed them to Sento and Misora: "Try it, this is a new flavor, I guarantee it will suit your taste."

Zhantu took the coffee and took a sip eagerly, instantly revealing a satisfied expression: "It's really different! Aqiao's coffee is still the most reliable."

Misora ​​took a sip and nodded, "It's delicious."

Onoue Takumi looked at the two people's satisfied expressions and felt quite proud. He picked up his cup and took a leisurely sip.

"Long Wo, do you know how to handle these ingredients?"

"I don't know! I've never seen these things before. Can you teach me how to make them?"

"Okay, today I'll teach you how to handle it step by step."

At this point, Ooue Takumi pointed to a bunch of green vegetables on the table. "For example, this one. Just peel off the old roots at the bottom, cut the rest into sections, blanch it in hot water, and then stir-fry or serve it cold."

"Oh, cutting off the roots, huh?"

Ryuga grabbed a handful of asparagus and began to process it clumsily, but after a few seconds, Onoue Takumi called a halt.

“Don’t cut too much!”

Onoue Takumi put down his coffee and walked over. He pointed at the dragon that had been shaved to a tiny piece and said helplessly, "Can you please show some mercy? This is for eating, not for toothpicks!"

Long Wo smiled awkwardly, quickly adjusted himself, and then looked at the unknown piece of meat.

"What about this?"

Onoue Takumi sat back in his chair, took a sip of coffee, and patiently explained, "This is venison, and it's a little more difficult to prepare. First, remove the fascia on the surface and soak it in salt water to remove the fishy smell. Then, cut it into pieces, marinate it, and then stew it."

"Anyway, it's a little more troublesome than the rabbit meat last time."

"How long should I soak in the salt water?"

Ryuga asked, fumbling with the pieces of meat.

"About ten minutes, don't soak it for too long."

"Don't worry, I'll be here watching and won't let you mess it up."

Ryuga was busy preparing the ingredients, Onoue Takumi was giving casual instructions, and Misora ​​and Battle Rabbit were studying the purification energy bottle. In an atmosphere of laughter, they slowly pushed forward the complicated work of preparing dinner.
