In the anime series, Goto Ichiri is actually my childhood sweetheart?

......

The next morning, Gao Qiao Feng woke up early, even before the alarm clock rang.

He did not get out of bed immediately, but opened the talent system panel first. Before going to bed last night, he was thinking about whether his proficiency had increased. This obsession made him get up early.

Sometimes it is really magical. As long as you keep thinking about what you want to do tomorrow morning before going to bed, you will most likely wake up early the next day, and your thoughts will be continuous. You can continue with what you were thinking about before going to bed when you wake up.

The light screen lit up, and Gao Qiaofeng scrolled up as usual, all the way to the bottom, found the cooking skills on the left, pointed his finger at it and looked to the right.

The proficiency level has not changed at all...

Gao Qiao Feng thought that his eyesight was blurry due to sleep, so he rubbed his eyes and tried again, but the result was no change and he still didn't move.

This shouldn't be the case. Even if I don't increase my proficiency when making dishes I know how to make, I made omelette rice yesterday, which was my first time trying it. Why wouldn't my proficiency level change at all?

He turned to the Japanese column again. He has been adding to it every day. Today, he even had a small outburst. Was it because he talked too much yesterday?

He totally couldn't understand the mechanism of increasing proficiency. Generally speaking, if there is practice, there will be progress. Even if it is not obvious at the time, it will definitely be obvious in the long run.

Moreover, his talent system is very sophisticated, the values ​​are updated at any time, and the range is also very wide, so almost every tiny improvement will be reflected, but why is it that his cooking skills have not changed at all this time?

Gao Qiaofeng racked his brains but couldn't figure out what went wrong, so he could only turn off the screen and calm down alone.

He glanced at the alarm clock and saw that he had five minutes left to get up, so he simply got up, washed up and had breakfast early. He could also use the extra time to jump rope in the corridor outside.

He opened the door. Ryoko had woken up at this time and was looking at her phone on the bed. When she heard some noise outside, she stuck her head out.

"Xiao Feng? You're up so early."

"Good morning, Ryoko." Takahashi Feng yawned, his hair was messy and he looked listless.

"Xiao Feng, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so listless? Didn't you get enough rest last night?"

"It's okay." Gao Qiaofeng waved his hand and went to the bathroom.

While brushing his teeth, he was still thinking about proficiency. Looking at himself in the mirror, Takahashi Feng felt as if there was a curse on his head.

Shaking his head to get rid of the strange thoughts, Takahashi Feng washed his face, took the jump rope and went out.

"Xiao Feng, you got up early. How was last night? Did you have fun playing with your classmates?"

Mrs. Togashi got up early because she also had to take her children to school. When she saw Takahashi Kaede in the corridor, she greeted him with a smile.

"Well, I'm fine. What about Yuta? Is he up yet?" Takahashi Feng responded casually.

"He's still lying in bed and doesn't want to get up. It's time to go and wake him up." Togashi's mother said with a smile.

"Goodbye, Aunt Togashi." After watching Mrs. Togashi return to her room, Takahashi Kaede jumped rope for a while, and then got on the school bus at Ryoko's urging.

Chapter 18: The Wings Are Hard

"Takahashi-san!"

As soon as she got on the bus, she saw Goto Ichiri smiling and calling her name in his seat, with uncontrollable excitement in his eyes.

Goto-san has grown up.

As soon as this thought came to her mind, Goto Ichiri shrank back because of the gaze of the child next to her. It seems that her social phobia has not improved much, she is just a little too excited.

But that's fine too.

"By the way, what was your father doing yesterday? You all had dinner at my house, so what did he do when he was home alone?" Gao Qiaofeng asked casually as he sat down.

"Dad worked overtime last night and ate out. I think it's such a pity..."

"There are plenty of opportunities, don't be bound by the present." There are plenty of opportunities, after all, they are still young.

The school bus started and took a bunch of chattering children to the kindergarten.

There is a home economics class in school today. Students are divided into groups of two and asked to pair up freely.

Takahashi Kaede is naturally in the same group with Goto Ichiri.

The teacher led her class of students into a classroom. There were many small tables in the classroom. There were sinks, chopping boards and knife boxes on the tables. The knife boxes were covered, probably to prevent children from taking them.

It was obvious that this home economics class was about training in cooking skills.

There is also a large table on the podium, which is also equipped with comprehensive equipment. The home economics teacher wearing a chef's hat followed the head teacher into the classroom and greeted the children enthusiastically.

"Hello everyone, I am your cooking teacher today. You can call me Mr. Honda."

Teacher Honda was holding the table and talking with a smile. The assistant teacher who came in brought a big bag and placed it on the table. The bag was full of vegetable stems that would be used for today's study.

"I believe you have seen so many dishes brought by our assistant teacher. Does anyone know what we are going to learn today?" Teacher Honda asked the students below the podium, intending to create a lively atmosphere in the classroom.

"I know!" A fat classmate raised his hand actively.

"You said."

"It's to eat delicious food!"

His silly look made the whole class laugh, and he himself was a little at a loss.

"Eh? Why are you laughing? Aren't you eating..."

"Hahaha, this classmate is really humorous. Today we are actually having a knife skills class, which aims to let students understand basic kitchen skills, that is, washing and cutting vegetables, so that students can master this skill safely, correctly and efficiently."

Teacher Honda laughed twice and brought the class back on track.

Goto Ichiri poked Takahashi Kaede.

"Takahashi-san, it's about cooking."

Gao Qiaofeng understood what she meant, but he just shrugged his shoulders. There was no point in showing off in front of a bunch of kids. He was not a childish guy.

"Don't worry about me. You should learn how to cook. If you live alone in the future, you can cook something delicious for yourself without having to go to a restaurant full of people to order food."

Takahashi Kaede spoke earnestly, and Goto Ichiri responded with a giggle.

"Okay, that's all for the introduction. Now the assistant teacher will pass out the dishes. Don't touch the dishes yet. Knives are very dangerous. You must watch me demonstrate before you start. Do you understand?"

"understood!"

The assistant teacher came down from the stage and handed each child a piece of vegetable stalk wrapped in a packaging bag.

"Thank you."

Gao Qiaofeng took the dish brought by the teacher with both hands and said thank you. The assistant teacher nodded with a smile, indicating that you're welcome.

"Have all the students received their food?"

Teacher Honda glanced at the students in the audience and found that they were all looking at him. He cleared his throat and continued speaking.

"First of all, the first step we take when we get the vegetables is to observe whether they are rotten or have worm holes. Remember, rotten vegetables must not be eaten. Eating them will cause diarrhea~"

Teacher Honda took out a vegetable, held it up and waved it in front of the students.

“Is this vegetable bad?”

"no!"

The students answered the teacher's questions in unison.

"Very good, it seems that the students have good eyesight, but just looking is not enough, we still have to wash the vegetables, it is unhygienic to eat unclean things."

"Also be careful when washing vegetables. Be gentle but careful, as a lot of dirt is hidden in the gaps between the leaves."

After Mr. Honda finished speaking, he turned on the faucet and began to demonstrate to everyone.

"Goto-san, are you listening? Goto-san? Goto-san?"

Takahashi Feng waved his hand in front of Goto Ichiri's eyes and found that she didn't respond at all. He called her again, and she finally came back from her daze.

"Oh, oh, wash the vegetables, wash the vegetables!"

Takahashi Feng looked at Goto Ichiri with a worried look. With her level of concentration in class and the degree of immersion in her own world, it was hard to imagine how she would study in the future.

Seeing Takahashi Kaede looking at him, Goto Ichiri realized that he was distracted. He blushed and looked at the teacher again. At this time, the teacher had finished washing the vegetables and began to explain knife skills.

"Finally, our focus today is cutting vegetables."

Pulling out a shiny knife from the knife rack, Mr. Honda placed the vegetable on the chopping board, clenched his left hand into a fist but did not curl it up, in a half-clenched posture, and then pressed it on the vegetable.

"Everyone, look at my left hand." The teacher asked the students to observe the details.

The podium was not high and there were no obstructions on the sides, so the students sitting in the front could easily see it. Some students sitting in the back could not see clearly so they stood up and moved forward. Gradually, a circle of people gathered in front of the podium.

Goto Ichiri also wanted to go over, but there were too many people and she didn't dare to go over. She stood halfway and didn't dare to move.

Gao Qiaofeng pulled her back.

"Don't join in the fun for such a long time. I'll show you how to do it and you can just follow my instructions."

"Okay, thank you." Goto Ichiri sat down obediently.

The student in front observed the teacher's left hand gesture and exclaimed:

"Teacher, your left hand looks like a cat's paw."

"That's right! You should pinch your left hand into a cat's paw shape, so that you can hold the food in place and prevent your hand from getting cut."

As he spoke, he raised his knife hand slightly and slowly cut off a piece of vegetable.

The dish didn't shake much during the whole process. It was always held down by his left hand and was very stable.

"Cut gently, don't rush, safety first."

The teacher took a long time to cut the paper, and some impatient students started to complain.

"Teacher, why are you so slow in doing something as simple as cutting vegetables? Can you be faster?"

"Quick cutting is a method that only experienced people can use. This is your first time, and you are still young. You don't have enough experience and strength. It's better to cut the vegetables slowly."

Mr. Honda explained patiently.

"Yes, you must be careful later and don't cut your hands." Takahashi Feng agreed and warned Goto Ichiri.

"I see, Takahashi, why are you just like my mother?"

"You little kid have grown up to be so independent that you can even talk back."

"hey-hey."

Chapter 19 Can I Still Be Your Friend?

The teacher finished the demonstration quickly and then it was time for the students to practice.

The student who had just asked the teacher why he didn't cut it faster stopped smiling immediately, because it seemed easy for others to cut it, but he became flustered when he tried to do it himself.

I felt no real feeling when I pressed the vegetables with my left hand holding the cat's paw. My hand was unstable and kept moving when I was cutting the vegetables, which resulted in the knife not being able to cut properly. Many problems were apparent as soon as I started.

In order to teach better and for the safety of the students, Teacher Honda and the assistant teacher split up into two groups and went down to teach the students in groups.

Goto Ichiri was learning how to pinch cat claws at this time. She didn't listen carefully just now, which resulted in her learning not being very smooth. Fortunately, Takahashi Kaede was patient enough and taught her almost step by step.

Takahashi Feng took Goto Ichiri's left hand, used his left hand to hold her palm to prevent her from making a fist, and used his right hand to press her four fingers down and then pressed them on the dish.

"Keep this position and get a feel for it. I won't let you use the knife yet. Try using your cat's claws to press it down section by section." Gao Qiaofeng said as he stood beside them with his hands on his hips.

Goto Ichiri did as she was told and the process went smoothly. After all, she was not a fool, she just didn't pay attention in class.

"You did a good job. I noticed just now that you two were the only ones who didn't come over. I didn't expect you did such a good job."

Teacher Honda had noticed these two unsociable children a long time ago. Out of responsibility, he decided to come over and teach them individually. Unexpectedly, Goto Ichiri did quite well.

"No...no, it's all thanks to Takahashi-san's good teaching."

Goto Ichiri spoke hesitantly, and his hand movements were a little distorted.

"Takahashi-san?" Teacher Honda looked at Takahashi Kaede who was sitting aside with an expressionless face.

"Yes, teacher, because I usually help my family cook, so I know a little about these things."

In order not to attract attention, Takahashi Feng tried his best to downplay his abilities, but he still amazed Teacher Honda.

"Have you helped to cook for the family?!" He thought for a moment, "Can Takahashi show me how to cut vegetables?"

Gao Qiao Feng had no choice but to do as he was told. He casually held the vegetable with one hand and pulled out the knife with the other. He turned on the faucet to wash the knife, and then began to cut it one section at a time.

He had learned some fancy moves in his previous life, but he thought it would be better not to demonstrate them here.

A steady and rapid sound of cutting vegetables could be heard. The speed was not fast, but the cut vegetables were almost the same size, and the blade slid back and forth when touching the vegetables, making people feel that the vegetables were cut very easily.

"Takahashi is awesome!"
