"what?"

Yang blinked, then turned around and met Hiratsuka Shizuka's gaze.

"Huh? Xiaojing, what are you doing here?"

Yukino, standing to the side, could hardly bear to watch this exaggerated acting anymore. She covered her face and said, "Sister, what are you thinking?"

Seeing that she couldn't get away with it, Yang Nai stuck out her tongue and said softly, "There's nothing I can do. Xiao Jing kept pinching my waist and wouldn't let me say it. I didn't want to either."

"Cough!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka coughed and said calmly, "Well, I'm already so familiar with Haruno, so please don't include me. I'll go talk to the people at the resort, and we'll head back in a bit."

After saying that, he turned around and quickly slipped away.

Watching Hiratsuka Shizuka leave, Luo Bai shook his head helplessly: "It's also because I wasn't paying attention, otherwise Hiratsuka-sensei wouldn't have been able to avoid it. Yang Nai-nee, go and talk to her and make her promise not to tell anyone, otherwise I'll personally take the memory eraser and erase her memories."

"Roger that!"

Yang bowed and then ran towards Hiratsuka Shizuka's direction.

Then, Luo Bai looked at Yui Yuigahama and Komachi Hikigaya.

"Well, considering how much Hachiman gave me those looks that almost made me cramp up, I won't erase your memories this time, but remember not to tell anyone."

The two girls nodded in unison, and Yui asked curiously, "Raku-kun! Shinobu-neechan was so amazing just now, are you from some powerful organization? Like the kind that protects world peace?"

“Protecting world peace is too much of an exaggeration,” Luo Bai waved his hand and said. “As for Shinobu, she’s in the logistics team, mainly responsible for medical and rescue missions. Of course, if there aren’t enough people at the front, she will also join the combat team. As for the specifics of these matters, you can ask Hachiman. He knows some things, but for your own good, I won’t tell you anything more detailed.”

Then, both Yuihama and Komachi looked at Hikigaya.

"Little Qi, you actually knew all along!"

"Brother, you're not being honest. When did you find out about all this?"

Faced with their questions, Hachiman Hikigaya also looked bitter, wondering how to explain himself.

The elementary school students at the resort, having been instilled with memories of a "sudden earthquake," all went back to pack their bags, preparing to end their summer camp, which had one day left.

Luo Bai and the others quickly went back to pack up and then prepared to leave by car.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at Luo Bai and the others who were waiting for the car, and said with emotion, "I never expected this world to be like this, and Luo Bai, you've done so much. I won't ask any more questions, just be careful in the future. Oh, and tonight..."

If you're coming over for a free meal, save me a seat. I'll be going now!

Luo Bai smiled and nodded, watching the car start and leave.

Volume 1: Chapter 241 Ingredients Arrive (2/2)

An hour later, Luo Bai and the others also returned to the apartment by car.

After arriving home, we put down our luggage, sat on the sofa, turned on the air conditioner, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ah! Home is so comfortable!

With a sigh, Yang Nai twisted her body and snuggled up to Luo Bai, hugging him and asking, "Xiao Bai, where am I staying tonight? Is Shi Yu here too?"

According to the original plan, Shiyu's volunteer activities at the resort will end tomorrow, and she will stay here for two more days before returning to Tokyo.

Because of what happened today, Shi Yu can stay at Luo Bai's place for one more day.

Now, Yang Nai needs to think even more carefully about where to stay.

"Yes, that is indeed a problem!"

Shi Yu nodded in agreement. Three days wasn't a long time, but it wasn't short either. She really wanted to spend more time with Luo Bai.

Looking at Yang Nai rubbing against his shoulder like a kitten, Luo Bai smiled and said, "You can stay like this? The two of you can share a room, or one of you can choose to go next door. Mai has an empty room. We don't have much time now, I can't just conjure up a big villa for you right now, can I?"

Once I go to university and move to a new place in Tokyo, this problem won't be a concern anymore.

However, we still need to discuss the room allocation issue.

As for sharing a room with Luo Bai, tonight it's a no-brainer; it'll definitely be Yukino, who's petting the cat nearby.

Mai, on the other hand, sat to the side with a smile, without saying a word.

After petting the cat, Yukino sat back down and looked at the others, saying, "Tonight, let Utaha stay in the guest room. I'll sleep with Mai."

"Oh~~~"

Haruno let out a frustrated shout, but still agreed to Yukino's arrangement.

After all, Shiyu came from Tokyo and had limited time. He would be spending the next two months in Chiba, so he wouldn't argue with her about this.

Just then, Luo Bai's phone rang; it was Shinobu Kocho calling.

"Luo Jun, I'm back from grocery shopping. Are you all home yet?"

"We've arrived, just a few minutes ago. We don't have much time to cook lunch today, so let's leave the groceries for now and order some takeout for lunch. We'll cook dinner ourselves."

"Okay, then I'll bring the groceries I bought over and put them in the refrigerator."

Soon, Shinobu Kocho came up in the elevator, accompanied by Kanao.

Taking the ingredients out of her bracelet, Shinobu Kocho put them in the refrigerator and said, "I didn't buy too much meat. That hungry bird has already been taken away to be butchered. Someone will bring over fresh meat soon, and we can have a big meal tonight."

Apart from Shinobu and the others, none of Yukino and the others had ever seen the actual hungry bird. Luo Bai also forgot to take a picture to record it at the time.

However, Butterfly Man still remembered, and after all the ingredients were placed, he took out his phone to show everyone the photos.

"Wow! It's huge!"

Looking at the still-intact Hungry Bird in the photo, Shiyu exclaimed in surprise, "This is the Hungry Bird! Doesn't it look delicious?"

Shinobu Kocho nodded and said, "If the 'Gourmet Captive' is correct, this Hungry Bird's capture level is 3. It's a bit harder to capture than the whole roasted pig we ate before. The meat inside is incredibly delicious, with rich texture, many times more delicious than the highest-grade Wagyu beef. Oh, by the way, that trumpet lion clan is now also being kept in captivity by the organization. The mane cakes from those male lions have been collected and will be delivered later!"

The girls' eyes lit up after hearing the introduction about the trumpet lion.

While the meat of the Hungry Bird is a top-tier delicacy, the mane cake of the Horned Lion is far more appealing to them.

Because this is an extremely delicious sponge cake, and it can also be used to make high-end chiffon cakes.

Taking out his phone, Luo Bai said with a smile, "I know you're all looking forward to the trumpet lion's mane cake, but before that, let's think about what we're having for lunch."

It was a hot summer day, so after discussing it for a while, everyone decided to have cold noodles and some snacks for a simple meal.

Anyway, there will be dessert in the afternoon, so there's no need to worry about getting hungry.

Half an hour later, the takeout arrived quickly. Everyone ate while waiting. A dozen minutes later, the Guardians also sent people to deliver the meat of the Hungry Bird and the mane cake of the Horn Lion.

Instead of rushing to take out the mane cake, everyone first took out the meat of the hungry bird.

Even though the meat was still raw when it was taken out, you could tell from its color and the distribution of fat that it was definitely top-quality meat in the world.

Yang Nai poked at it with her finger and said curiously, "I really didn't expect that birds could have meat like this. No wonder it's the world of Toriko. By the way, since you guys said there's a world like Toriko, will there be a world like Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma, or a world like Chuuichi Ichiban?"

As he put the Hungry Bird's meat back into the storage box, Luo Bai said with a smile, "Maybe it really exists, but we have no way to search for it. We can only wait for people or items from that world to fall into this world before we can pinpoint its location. However, compared to these two uncertain worlds, Toriko's world really offers a chance to take a look. It's just a pity that it's too dangerous. I won't let you go until we have foolproof protective measures."

No one was disappointed, after all, they all knew that the fighting power in Toriko's world was terrifying, and not just anyone could go there for a couple of rounds.

After placing the hungry bird's meat, Luo Bai opened the box containing the trumpet lion's mane cake.

As soon as the box was opened, a rich, sweet aroma wafted out, quickly filling the entire living room.

Smelling this aroma, everyone closed their eyes in rapture.

"smell good!"

After taking a deep breath, Shiyu looked at the fluffy cakes and said, "I'm not usually very interested in desserts and cakes, but this taste is just unbearable!"

Everyone else nodded in unison, including Shinobu Kocho and Kanao.

Girls, there are very few who can resist this kind of deliciousness.

Luo Bai said with a smile, "Alright, the cake is right here and it's not going anywhere. Let's eat lunch first, and the cake can be our dessert."

Although it was hard to part ways, everyone knew what was important and that they still had to eat.

After putting the cake away, everyone continued eating lunch. Haruno also picked up her phone and contacted Hiratsuka Shizuka.

"Hey, is Xiaojing home yet?"

In Hiratsuka Shizuka's apartment, having already arrived home and taken a shower, Hiratsuka Shizuka emerged from the bathroom dressed in light clothing and asked curiously, "You guys are back too, right?"

"Oh right, you're back!" Yang Nai said with a smile. "Xiao Jing, if you're free this afternoon, come over early. We received a batch of the absolute best otherworldly ingredients. You can't get these anywhere else. First come, first served!"

After listening, Hiratsuka Shizuka turned around and walked straight to the bedroom.

"I understand, I'm coming!"

Volume 1: Chapter 242 An Incredibly Delicious Cake (One update today)

In less than half an hour, Hiratsuka Shizuka

It arrived at Luo Bai's location at the speed of light.

Upon entering, seeing the room filled with girls, Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at Luo Bai with a playful expression: "Your life is truly much happier than I imagined."

Luo Bai shrugged, gestured for Hiratsuka Shizuka to sit down, and then introduced Kocho Shinobu and the others to her, explaining their backgrounds.

"Huh? Demon Slayers from the Taisho era in other worlds?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka felt that her worldview had been continuously impacted today, but fortunately she was not an old-fashioned person and could accept these things quite quickly.

Looking at Shinobu Kocho and her family of girls, Shizuka Hiratsuka could hardly believe that these petite girls were actually demon slayers.

Seeing the doubt in Hiratsuka Shinobu's eyes, she smiled and said, "If it's just about physical strength, humans really can't compare to demons. But a hundred years ago, the strongest human swordsman, Yoriichi Tsugikuni, created the Breathing Technique and passed it on to the Demon Slayer Corps. That's our trump card that allows us to contend with demons. Unfortunately, although the Breathing Technique has increased our combat power, it's still very difficult to contend with the Twelve Demon Moons and the strongest Demon King. Fortunately, I later met Raku-kun, who saved me and helped us completely destroy the Demon King. Then I settled here with my sisters."

"I see. It seems you've had a tough time over the years."

Nodding, Hiratsuka Shizuka smiled and said, "But now that I'm here, I should be able to live a good life. By the way, I'm here now. Luo Bai, did you save me lunch? I haven't eaten yet."

"Yes, there is." Luo Bai pointed to a bowl of cold noodles on the table and said, "Cold noodles, would you like some?"

"Of course I'll eat it! Cold noodles are a must in the summer!"

With that, Hiratsuka Shizuka picked up the bowl of cold noodles, grabbed a pair of chopsticks, and started eating.

After eating a couple of bites comfortably, Hiratsuka Shizuka remembered why Haruno had called her over.

"Where is that top-tier ingredient?"

"Don't rush, Shizuka." Yang Nai ate a piece of sushi and said with a smile, "Although we also want to eat, that's dessert after the meal. Let's eat first and give ourselves a little space."

Regarding the top-quality ingredients that Yang Nai mentioned, Hiratsuka Shizuka believed that she had eaten many top-quality delicacies and did not think it was really an exaggeration. She nodded, then picked up a piece of fried pork cutlet and took a bite.

Half an hour later, everyone finished their lunch and then looked at Luo Bai.

Facing everyone's gaze, Luo Bai smiled wryly and said, "It's clearly you who want to eat, so why are you looking at me?"

Then I took out the storage box from the kitchen and put it on the cleaned coffee table, along with a bunch of cake plates and forks.

As soon as the box was opened, the rich aroma wafted out again, captivating everyone so much that they closed their eyes in fascination.

Hiratsuka Shizuka was smelling this scent for the first time and stared in shock.

"It smells so good! Is this a cake? I've never smelled a cake like this before!"

Luo Bai took out several large pieces of trumpet lion mane cake, picked up a knife and began to cut them into pieces, saying, "Toriko, you know Hiratsuka-sensei, right? This is the trumpet lion mane cake from that world. Before, in the mountains, besides ghouls, these trumpet lions and a giant hungry bird also appeared."

Hiratsuka Shizuka paused for a moment, then said, "Isn't that a manga? Wait, could such a world really exist?"

"That's right, isn't this it?"

As she spoke, Luo Bai placed the slices of cake one by one onto everyone's plates. "Come on, everyone, have a taste. This is sure to be delicious."

Everyone picked up their plates, cut a small piece of cake with their forks, and put it in their mouths.

The moment it's placed inside, the rich aroma and sweetness explode in your mouth, accompanied by the fluffy and soft texture of the sponge cake, captivating everyone.

After taking a bite, Luo Bai looked at the cake in her hand in amazement: "I originally thought it was just a sponge cake, nothing too amazing, but the taste is absolutely comparable to the whole roasted pig I've had before."

Yukino nodded in agreement: "Although one is meat and the other is cake, they are both excellent and it's hard to say which is better."

After saying that, he took another bite and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.

Looking at the cake in her hand, Hiratsuka Shizuka said incredulously, "This taste is just too outrageous. I've never eaten such a delicious cake before, and it's just a plain cake without any processing."

Luo Bai smiled and said, "There are still quite a few cakes left. This afternoon, I'll get some high-quality cream and fruit to decorate them. They should taste even better then."

Upon hearing Luo Bai's words, Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at the box containing the cake.

"Just how big is the space inside?"
