Chihaya Aine is a member of the team Zero

Nagasaki Suyo put the last bit of meatball on the chopsticks into her mouth. At that moment, Chihaya Aine no longer cared about her ladylike image. Her cheeks puffed up and she chewed with big mouthfuls, her face showing a look of surprise.

Nagasaki Sushi's appetite was already filled with sashimi, and her appetite was aroused again by the codfish and green tea lion's head. She swallowed a fist-sized fish meatball in just two or three bites.

Nagasaki Sushi couldn't help but ask, "What ingredients give this silver cod and green tea lion's head a crispy texture?"

“It’s water chestnuts. I added water chestnuts to it!”

Chihaya Aine seemed to have been prepared. She took out a clean, unpeeled water chestnut from the side and handed it to Nagasaki Motoyo in front of her.

“So it’s this kind of ingredient.”

After taking the black, flat, round ingredient from Chihaya Aine's hand and placing it in her palm, a sense of understanding flashed through Nagasaki Suyo's heart.

"Just a little bit of this ingredient mixed in can greatly enhance the taste. It will be crispy and fresh when chewed, and it will also enhance the freshness." Chihaya Aine said with a slight smile.

"Although the main ingredient is cod, I also tasted another delicious fish. Is it whitebait?"

Nagasaki Suyo suddenly spoke.

"Correct!"

"This kind of whitebait is the California whitebait found in that seafood cart. It's not the whitebait from inland rivers. Although the two are very similar, their flavors are completely different. I used two kinds of fish cubes with a strong marine flavor to make this dish." Chihaya Aine answered calmly.

"If you make the mixed fish paste this way, Aine-chan, aren't you worried that the silver fish will take over and ruin the "fresh" flavor of this silver cod and green tea lion's ball dish?"

Nagasaki Suyo asked curiously.

"That depends on the chef's control. After all, how the dish is presented ultimately depends on the chef himself..."

Chihaya Aine shrugged.

"The 'green tea flavor' in the seasoning of this codfish and green tea lion's head is also a hidden delicious bomb. Let me reveal the ultimate true nature of this codfish and green tea lion's head for soyorin~"

As Chihaya Aine spoke, she casually added the extra seasonings she had prepared to the plate of codfish and green tea lion's head in front of Nagasaki Suye. Suddenly, the bottom of the plate was covered with a large green area, and the aroma of tea filled the air!

"Ok?"

After Nagasaki Suyo sniffed the scent lightly, her expression suddenly changed significantly.

"The secret lies in the mint leaves and olive green tea!"

While Chihaya Aine was saying this, she was actually complaining in her heart, this time she was really going to use drastic measures!

Nagasaki Suyo involuntarily stretched out her chopsticks, picked up a lion's head, and deliberately dipped some of the seasoning on the bottom of the plate. Then she stared at the mint leaf on top of the meatball and swallowed most of the meatball in one bite.

The flavor spreads as soon as you bite it.

"This smell... is completely different!" Nagasaki Suyo froze.

Fresh!

This time it's not umami, but a symphony of mint, olives and green tea!

The whole mouth is filled with this fresh flavor.

When I exhaled, my mouth and nose were filled with the smell!

Nagasaki Suyo's expression softened from solemnity in an instant, and the corners of her mouth stretched out, revealing a baby-like peaceful and tranquil smile.

She sat there, but seemed to be fast asleep.

A strong wind blew, and Nagasaki Suyo sat up and found herself lying on the green tea terraces. She stood up and looked out from halfway up the mountain. The tea trees all over the mountain were sprouting new buds, lush and green, ready for people to pick.

The breeze blew the tea leaves, and a huge shadow was cast from the sky. Nagasaki Suyo looked up and was stunned.

flying fish!

The cod that originally lived in the deep sea of ​​Antarctica now turned into flying fish under the blue sky, slowly descending on the fresh green tea sea. The wind brought the smell of mint and olives. The flying cod swam past her and circled around her. What a dreamy scene.

Nagasaki Sushi seemed intoxicated. With a light sip, the ultimate freshness of the cod rushed into her body through her mouth and nose.

This umami flavor is very gentle and warms the body and soul.

But in reality, Nagasaki Suyo showed a comfortable and happy expression.

"Gulu~"

After swallowing all the codfish and green tea lion's head in her mouth, Nagasaki Suye finally woke up.

"If the cod sashimi platter embodies the authentic 'freshness', with the power of the deep sea and a touch of coolness that makes your soul tremble... then this cod green tea lion's head dish is the perfect interpretation of 'newness' and 'freshness'!"

Nagasaki Suyo gave a very high evaluation to the silver cod green tea lion's head after it activated its killer move and showed its ultimate true form. Nagasaki Suyo looked like an experienced gourmet when commenting on the food.

"Pfft, Soyorin, you look just like the gourmets in the British Empire looked like after they ate the food I cooked..."

Knowing that she had said something out of turn, Chihaya Aine quickly covered her mouth.

Fortunately, Nagasaki Suyo, who was still immersed in the food, did not care about what Chihaya Aine said, but gave her a look that told her not to interrupt.

Nagasaki Suyo said slowly, "It has an extra flavor, 'new', not just 'fresh'!"

“One is pure extreme.”

"One is a beautiful mixed symphony..."

"Thank you, Aine-chan. I enjoyed this meal very much."

Nagasaki Suyo, who had regained consciousness from the afterglow of the delicious food, seemed to have realized that she had not looked very ladylike as she puffed out her cheeks and chewed the codfish and green tea lion's head in front of Chihaya Aine. Two blushes slightly appeared on her pretty cheeks.

"Hehehe, Soyorin, just enjoy your meal. After all, the reason I took over the cooking for this meal was so that you could enjoy it."

PS: See you all at the hen card tonight, family members.

Volume 1: Chapter 141 Starry Sky

If this meal can make Nagasaki Suyo happy and comfortable, then Chihaya Aine's original purpose will be achieved.

The big pink-haired dog had a silly smile on his face at this time, and his beautiful gray eyes were all fixed on Nagasaki Suyo in front of him.

After finishing all the rice in her bowl, Chihaya Aine pretended to get up and clear the dishes on the table.

However, Nagasaki Suyo stretched out her fair and slender hand and placed it on Chihaya Aine's right hand, which had just been raised, preventing Chihaya Aine from taking the next step.

"soyorin?"

Chihaya Aine's petite and pretty face was full of confusion. She was a little confused as to why Nagasaki Suyo would stop her from cleaning up the mess on the table.

"I've already left the cooking to you, Aine-chan. I'll take care of the cleanup afterward."

Nagasaki Suyo's thin pink lips curved into a crescent-shaped arc as she slowly answered.

"ε=(?ο｀*))) Hey, soyorin, are you going to clean up the battlefield yourself?"

Chihaya Aine actually wanted to say that if she were to do the cleaning, she would only need to use the energy of light to sweep over the plates and bowls, and they would become clean in an instant, saving both time and effort.

"Well, let me clean up after dinner. After Aine-chan leaves, I need to find something to do to feel more fulfilled."

Nagasaki Suyo smiled softly, and her blue eyes, like the boundless sky, were completely filled with Chihaya Aine in front of her.

After hearing what Nagasaki Motoyo said, Chihaya Aine didn't know what to say at this moment, even though she was usually very eloquent.

“Hmm? Did what I said just now cause you any burden? I really just wanted to clean up these trivial matters after dinner. After all, if only Aine-chan was giving unconditionally like this, our relationship would be unbalanced, wouldn’t it?”

The "unequal relationship" may have left a huge scar in Nagasaki Motoyo's heart, so that she would subconsciously want to avoid such a relationship between her and Chihaya Aine.

"Then I'll trouble you to clean up after dinner, Soyorin~"

At this moment, Chihaya Aion's keen sense of smell, brought about by her high emotional intelligence, kicked in. She knew very well that this was the time to follow Nagasaki Suyo's words and go with the flow.

"I've already arranged a car for you to go to the Evening Primrose Planetarium. You can just go downstairs."

Nagasaki Suyo stood up from her seat and began to clear the table of dishes after the meal.

"Hehehe, thank you soyorin~"

Chihaya Aine smiled and pecked Nagasaki Suze's beautiful face, which was as delicate as a baby's, with lightning speed.

Before Nagasaki Suyo could react to the warm lip print with a hint of sweet fragrance on her face, the door of her "duplex high-rise, sea and river view" apartment had already opened and closed.

"Really, just like a little kid."

Nagasaki Motoyo stretched out her right hand and gently stroked the lip print on her face that still had some warmth. Although she said Chihaya Aine like a child, her beautiful face was already filled with a bright smile.

In the black luxury car, she was leaning against the window, gazing at Tokyo, a city that was still illuminated by neon lights as if it were daytime even at night, while her fingers were unconsciously stroking her cherry-colored lips.

This situation continued until the black limousine dropped Chihaya Aine off at her destination.

"Thank you, driver."

Chihaya Aine came to her senses and opened the car door and got out swiftly.

"I don't deserve it. This is what I should do."

After confirming that he had sent Chihaya Aine to her destination, the driver of the black limousine immediately drove away. The black limousine slowly drove into the dark night illuminated by neon lights.

Chihaya Aine walked lightly towards the destination of this trip, the Evening Primrose Planetarium. Everything that happened today was a good thing~

Soon, Chihaya Aine saw Takamatsu Touma waiting for her at the entrance of the Evening Primrose Planetarium. Takamatsu Touma was wearing a dark blue and beige mixed sweatshirt, and the two red strings on her hat were fluttering playfully in the wind. Under her short hot pants were her fair and slender legs, and under her graceful calf curves were a pair of white canvas shoes. Her whole body was filled with the lively aura of a girl.

"Xiao Deng, you're wearing something so cute today~ Am I late?"

Chihaya Aine jumped to Takamatsu Deng's side with a smile on her face, and started praising him as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Aine is cute today too~"

Under the double attack of Chihaya Aine's praise and the extremely close approach, Takamatsu Deng now lowered her head and her face flushed. Anyone who saw this scene would have no doubt that if this continued, the beautiful girl's crystal clear earlobes would definitely be dyed a shy red.

"Moses, Moses, can you hear me, Little Lamp?"

Chihaya Aine took small steps and came to Takamatsu Touma's front, bent down and approached Takamatsu Touma's cute face, stretched out her right hand and shook it, trying to shake back the soul of the little cutie in front of her.

However, although Chihaya Aine's actions seemed as fierce as a tiger at first glance, in fact, they only made the blush on Takamatsu Deng's cute face even more rampant.

"Aine-chan isn't late..."

Gao Songdeng tried to hold it in for a long time, but could only manage this one sentence.

"Hey, hey, it's good that we're not late. Let's go in quickly."

Chihaya Aine smiled innocently, then grabbed Takamatsu Deng's snow-white wrist, turned around and walked towards the Evening Primrose Planetarium.

After finding her own seat with Takamatsu Touma and sitting down, Chihaya Aine couldn't put down her chair no matter what.

"Hey?! Why can't this chair be put down?!"

Chihaya Aine turned around, restrained her strength, and carefully pushed the cushioned chair behind her.

"For this seat..."

All of this had already been seen by Takamatsu Touma, a regular visitor to the Evening Primrose Planetarium. Takamatsu Touma gently stretched out his hand and pressed the mechanism on the armrest of Chihaya Aine's seat.

First there was the "click" sound after the switch was pulled, then the "pop" sound after the chair was lowered, "Oh!" and finally the sound made by Chihaya Aine when the chair tilted back too quickly and she fell down, her head almost hitting Takamatsu Deng.

Chihaya Aine and Takamatsu Touma were at such a close distance that they were about to kiss or fight. They could even feel the heat of each other's breath.

Just as Chihaya Aine and Takamatsu Touma were looking at each other, feeling each other's breath, the lights in the Evening Primrose Planetarium suddenly went out, which meant that the program had begun.

"The show will begin next."

The soft voice of the female announcer also sounded in the Evening Primrose Planetarium at the same time.

"Please relax and enjoy yourself until the last moment."

"Thank you for helping me, Xiao Deng~"

Chihaya Aine smiled and whispered her gratitude to Takamatsu Deng.

"It's just a small favor... I guess I should thank Aine-chan for helping me so much..."

Takamatsu Deng looked at Chihaya Aine in front of him with his eyes shining with amber.

It was Chihaya Aine who gave me the courage to start over, it was Chihaya Aine who brought everyone who had been scattered together to form a new band, and it was Chihaya Aine who protected myself and everyone countless times.

These words echoed in Gao Songdeng's heart. As the saying goes, if you keep thinking about it, there will be a response.

But if it were Chihaya Aine who said it, she might have just blurted out, "Your Excellency's kindness is yet to be fulfilled! Loyalty!"

At this distance that was almost touching, Takamatsu Deng also smelled the second fragrance on Chihaya Aine.

Because of his understanding of the two old bandmates, Takamatsu Deng immediately recognized that the owner of the extra fragrance on Chihaya Aion was Nagasaki Motoyo, who usually played the role of mother in the band and also played the role of captain or conductor in battle.

"Why does Ain-chan have Sushi's unique fragrance? What did Ain-chan and Sushi-chan do just now to make Ain-chan's body be stained with Sushi's unique fragrance?"

At this time, Gao Songdeng was in deep entanglement.
