Can you handle my Hikigaya's cooking?

"Who knows? Anyway, that's what the rumor says."

"Rumors are just rumors. They are fake the moment you hear them. I feel like this list is already very difficult to change."

In the VIP room, Erina's eyes were once again focused on Hikigaya. No matter how much she denied his ability, after so many failures, Erina was not a fool. She certainly knew that it was the result of her own willfulness.

But now...can he put a perfect end to this game?

At this moment, her heart was conflicted.

If Hikigaya surpasses Hisako, then Hisako might be eliminated. And if Hikigaya cannot reach 89 points, her opponents who are also among the top ten will doubt her vision.

In the end, she just chose to accept the result.

On the other side, Ye Shanliang smiled faintly and said:

"How's my cooking?"

“It’s delicious, better than I thought.”

"That's good. Next, it's your turn. Don't let me down."

"I try my best."

At the same time, contestants from venue B also arrived, and it seemed that the competition there had ended.

The final list of winners is:

Alice 95 points

Kurokiba 93 points

Hayato Hayama 88 points

Ibuzaki 87 points

Ryoko 85 points

Compared to venue A, there didn't seem to be much competition in venue B. Except for Alice and her followers who reached 90 points, everyone else only scored around 80 points.

Miura: "Hayato, you're here."

Ye Shan quickly smiled back, "Well, I just came back from the game. What's going on here?"

Yuigahama: "Koki hasn't come on yet, but... the situation right now is very wrong."

Having long noticed this terrifying score difference, which was completely different from the situation at venue B, and understanding this terrifying pressure, Hayato Hayama could only smile and say:

"Don't worry, he's very powerful."

At the same time, Ryoko, Yoshino, and Ibusaki also came to Granny Wenxu's side and said breathlessly:

"I say, this score is too exaggerated, it's equivalent to all being above 90!"

Ibusaki: "There's only one Polaris Dormitory..."

Granny Wenxu nodded: "Marui and Mito have been eliminated, and this side is also nearing the end, it all depends on Hachiman."

Yoshino: "Poor Granny Wenxu, I'm eliminated!"

Granny Wenxu: "Stupid, you should reflect on yourself when you go back."

As for Alice, she was always willful, so she just walked to a corner and sat down.

"It's really interesting, two guys with 95 points, and one with 90 points..."

Kurokiba: "I just heard from the people next to me that the person you care about hasn't come on stage yet, Miss."

Alice: "Huh? That's good. I thought he was eliminated. Next, let's see what kind of food you can come up with."

Kurokiba: "I really want to spar with everyone on the list."

As time went by, Hachiman seemed to have realized that he would be the last one to appear. From a certain perspective, he was lucky, but it was useless.

Isshiki: "From now on, it's up to you, Hikigaya Hachiman."

Kawashima Rei: "The last contestant, Hachiman Hikigaya from Polar Star Dormitory, please come on stage!"

Chapter 84: Textbook cuisine, Yawata's new creation

In other competitions, the last contestant to perform often possesses superhuman strength, but in cooking, the closer you are to the last contestant, the more you will lose that advantage.

Especially after being full and having tasted so many dishes, Hachiman's advantage was completely lost. The only thing that could be explained was probably the dishes that had not been revealed from the beginning to the end.

However, this is definitely not a plus point for the judges.

Ryoko: "It feels bad. It's like this right after we came on stage. If we don't get 89 points or above, we'll be eliminated directly."

Ibusaki: "I didn't expect the competition in venue A to be so fierce, but that guy is Hikigaya, a guy who was able to turn the tide even in such a situation, maybe he has his own ideas."

Compared to her roommates in the Pole Star Dormitory, Granny Wenxu seemed particularly relieved. She just smiled calmly and said:

"Don't worry, that guy is Shiroichiro's son. It seems that I can finally get back the feeling I had back then."

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Hachiman returned to the stage again, but compared to his original mentality, he now obviously enjoyed this moment more.

Although the transformation to Xianchong has not yet been completed, it is indeed a big improvement compared to the past days. At this moment, the first thing that comes to Hachiman's mind is:

"If Komachi saw me like this, how surprised would she be?"

"She would definitely sob and say how great it is that her brother can finally grow up independently."

He is the older brother but he is always taken care of by his younger sister Komachi. It is so inappropriate no matter how you think about it.

Before he knew it, Hachiman had walked to the center of the stage, where the eyes of both the judges and the audience were all directed at him without any concealment.

"That guy must be Hikigaya."

"I'm looking forward to what kind of dishes they'll serve."

"It seems that whether that rumor is true or not might be revealed today."

Hachiman listened to the constant discussions around him and sighed helplessly. He had never thought that one day he would become such a guy. He thought he would spend the three years of high school quietly, but he never expected that such a commotion would occur in the first semester of enrollment.

Now that I think about it, this period of time has passed by so quickly, and now, perhaps this dish is my true farewell to the past.

Thinking of this, Hachiman did not hesitate at all and gently lifted the lid of the pot.

Tadokoro Megumi: "It's coming, Hikigaya-san's cooking."

Takumi: "What on earth did that guy do to make himself so mysterious?"

Hisako: "Since Lady Erina attaches so much importance to you, what kind of answer will you give?"

Yukinoshita also held her breath at this moment, as if everything was still, making her beautiful face become dull at this moment.

Erina: “Finally here…”

Ye Shanliang: "Anyway, as someone who has spent more than a month at the Shiomi Institute, I will not allow you to serve up any inferior dishes."

Yuigahama: "Keep going, Xiaoqi!"

It was as if golden light was emanating, and the moment the food was revealed, the entire venue was illuminated, instantly converging into a flickering light.

Hoshino Ai: "This is..."

Hachiman: "Vegetable salad, please enjoy."

“Salad...Salad...”

It was as if the entire venue had fallen silent, as if no words could be spoken at all.

After all, the taste of dishes like salads is pretty much the same, and it depends more on the freshness of the ingredients. And even if you are not a chef, you can make a very decent salad, so...

When hearing about this dish, Totsuki's students were speechless for a moment.

Only Yukinoshita covered her mouth and laughed inappropriately:

"Well, it's very much like Hikigaya-kun."

Anton: "Is this a normal salad?"

Hachiman: "No matter what kind of food it is, it is just made of ordinary ingredients. The key is whether you can convey your inner voice through the food. In this way, no matter how ordinary a dish is, it will no longer be ordinary."

Although what Hachiman said was reasonable, Totsuki is a school that prides itself on taste after all, so if one fails to meet the required scores, one will still be eliminated.

In response, the commander-in-chief just looked at Hikigaya with a serious expression, while Ryo Hayama, who was far away in the audience, also frowned slightly.

Erina, on the other hand, was once again a little unhappy. She just slammed the window in an empty corner and said:

"I knew this guy would come up with such a shady dish..."

Although she said this, this time, Erina did not comment on Hachiman's cooking quality control.

Hoshino Ai: "What an interesting guy, but no matter how it smells or looks, it's really just an ordinary vegetable salad dish. There's not even any curry-themed curry to be seen."

After Hoshino Ai said this, the judges finally reacted. After all, from the beginning to the last contestant, their dishes more or less exuded a little bit of the aroma of curry, but this vegetable salad had no aroma at all.

Of course, if you want to really enjoy a dish, you still have to taste it, so...

I saw Hoshino Ai picked up the spoon and put the food directly into her mouth.

Seeing that this was the last dish, the judges did not say much. They just put the dishes into their mouths at the same time like Hoshino Ai.

The blush on their faces seemed to come silently, and the five judges just kept their faces tightly clenched at this moment. For a moment, they were unable to describe the content. Although their mouths did not make any action, they were unexpectedly moving.

Ten seconds later...

Kawashima Rei: "Um? The judges?"

Granny Wenxu: "That guy made the judges' faces freeze completely..."

Ibusaki: "There are only two ways that a professional judge could become like this..."

Ryoko: "Either, you'll encounter the most unpalatable food in the world. I don't think Hikigaya has such a habit. On the other hand, you'll taste something you've never tasted before."

Yoshino: "Hey, what on earth is Hikigaya cooking? It's just a salad."

Seeing the judges with such expressions, not only the people from Polaris Dormitory, but also the audience had started talking. However, in this noisy venue, Yukinoshita and Erina just smiled calmly at the same time.

Takumi: "Complete silence..."

Hisako: "Hikigaya..."

Kawashima Rei: "Well, judges, how does it taste?"

With Kawashima Rei's reminder, the judges seemed still unable to feel the world outside of the food. They just put their hands on their chins at the same time, carefully feeling their own personal world.

Another minute later, the judges finally reacted to their gaffe. But even so, they were still looking at each other in confusion. After all, as judges, they didn't dare to comment on this dish casually.

Only after getting the simultaneous approval of the five people could she begin to explain. But before that, Hoshino Ai had already slowly stood up. Her eyes, which had been sparkling with stars, dimmed at this moment, until the smile disappeared, and the look that had never been seen before was finally revealed.

"Mr. Hikigaya, I sincerely invite you to join my private team and hire me as your personal chef. As for the fee, the annual salary is 100 million, no... 200 million."

Listening to Hoshino Ai's words, the entire venue instantly became lively.

Not to mention other people, as for Erina, she was really panicked at this moment, because she knew that Hikigaya was careless, so she might just leave here for the sake of one or two hundred million.

Obviously she wanted to stop all this, but because she was in the VIP room, she couldn't rush down so quickly, and her voice couldn't be heard at all on the main stage.

On the other hand, Yukinoshita might have noticed that something was wrong with Hachiman this time. Although she didn't know what happened to him, at least one or two hundred million yuan could not shake his heart for the time being.

At the same time, Hayato Hayama also showed a calm smile:

"I knew this would happen..."

Yuigahama: "Xiaoqi is really amazing..."

Takumi: "Could it be that this guy's cooking is on par with Yukinoshita and Hayama?"

Isami: "It seems that my brother's worry just now was unnecessary."

Hisako also said helplessly and self-deprecatingly: "As expected, Lady Erina, you should have understood a long time ago that I can't defeat this guy by myself."

Tadokoro: "Hikigaya-kun..."

Alice: “It’s great to be able to catch up.”

Ye Shanliang just smiled indifferently. After all, his feeling for Hikigaya's performance was:

"It's great that I didn't recognize the wrong opponent."

...

Hoshino Ai's words not only ignited the entire venue, but also the entire judges' panel. Not only the audience, but even the judges were shocked by Hoshino Ai's sudden reaction.
