Gentleman's Night Canteen

Neither the priestess in charge of guarding the mountain gate under the mountain nor the priestess who led the way actually knew about the 'identity certificate'.

The one at the foot of the mountain was purely because she saw Yae Shenzi in Lanmeng's arms. In fact, fortunately, in order to maintain a sense of mystery in front of ordinary people, the maiden responsible for guarding the mountain gate had to wear a mask. Thanks to this, Lanmeng didn't pay attention until the expression of the other party changes.

As for the person in front of me, he received the order of Yae Shenzi directly and naturally did not need Lan Meng to show proof, and Lan Meng's reaction when he saw the Yamashita Miko was also that the other party had been notified by his superiors, so he never showed it, which led to the current situation. The sudden removal startled the other party.

You must know that the status of "Narukin Taisha" is very special. The branch located in Inazuma Castle accepts worship every day, but the main shrine located on Mt. Kageko only allows ordinary people to come to it on major festivals. This proof that you can enter and leave the gate at will is not significant generally.

But for some reason, she calmed down instantly when she thought of the 'Master Gong Si' who was held in Lan Meng's arms before.

And Lan Meng's eyes lit up, doesn't that mean that he still has a chance to rua the wild little fox...

At this moment, Lan Meng felt an itch in his mouth, and then found that the little fox in his arms was scratching himself with his paws, and a bright smile appeared on his face, which is probably similar to walking on the street with his girlfriend because he saw Glancing at the passing girl and being stared at by the other party is not only not angry, but also very happy.

But it was obvious that Lan Meng guessed wrong again, the reason why Yae Shenzi did this was purely to 'protest'.

She is not a simple fox herself, and she has a certain resistance to Lan Meng's "God's Hand", but ordinary foxes can't help it, she doesn't want to go home one day to find that all her foxes have been masturbated by Lan Meng Abandoned.

But the misunderstanding was misunderstanding, Lan Meng still scratched the other party's neck twice, and immediately calmed him down. I don't know why the scene was filled with a strange atmosphere of feeding the tiger with his body to protect the child...

Chapter 22 The blue dream of obeying one's own desires

Lan Meng, who returned to the General's mansion with Yae Shenzi, first connected the door of the kitchen lounge to the dining room, and then comforted the cats and beasts who had been waiting for him for a long time before starting to make lunch for the 'General'.

Because you can call the maid to serve the dishes, Lan Meng directly resumed the normal operation of the restaurant that was originally closed.

This was something planned on the way here, so Lan Meng seemed very calm, but the Yae Shenzi who was held in Lan Meng's arms widened his eyes.

The entire Narugami Island is shrouded in a huge barrier, and the place with the strongest defense in this barrier is Narugami Taisha Shrine, because there is the magic core covering the entire island, and the natural defense effect is also the strongest. Strong, but the second is the general's residence.

But this kind of place didn't even prevent Lan Meng from opening the portal, not even a warning.

Shenzi couldn't imagine how easy it would be for Lan Meng to destroy it. He could just find a place and open a portal to send the enemy over.

But after a short period of vigilance, she showed an ecstatic expression again.

Although there is no direct evidence to prove that Lan Meng is an enemy or a friend, she can basically confirm that Lan Meng is not an enemy based on the existing information. After all, even if someone wants to use Lan Meng's special ability to do things, but such a special talent like him It must be closely protected, but according to Shenzi's observation, at least the other party does not have any protection measures in Inazuma Castle.

If Lan Meng is really from a hostile force, then she hopes that the other party will send more, because this is simply sending talents.

Is there such a fool in this world?

The excited Yae Shenzi began to communicate with Ying again. Although Re Lanmeng didn't care about it, he had unconsciously received more attention than most people imagined.

He just returned to his restaurant to prepare for business after making lunch for the general as usual.

However, because there were only a few guests as usual, Lan Meng began to think about what to do next while teasing Yae Shenzi and Maomaomon.

The first is how to use that 'shard of destiny'.

If the "Gate of Destiny Food" to guide guests is compared to drawing cards from a pool, and the cards drawn are all random, then "Shards of Destiny" is direct directional drawing of cards.

Although he didn't know whether the drawn card was N or SSR before it was drawn, at least it would meet his requirements.

Before, because the ingredients were not enough, Blue Dream urgently needed a purchase channel, so he chose "can increase the purchase channel" for the first "Fate Fragment", and then Sirona appeared in the store under the guidance of the Gate of Destiny Food, thanks to The other party, Blue Dream, has only now obtained the supply from 'Pokémon Farm'.

Even transportation is easier because a second door can now be opened.

So what should he do and choose with this 'Piece of Destiny' in his hand?

Lanmeng has several directions to choose from.

The first one is naturally to continue to increase the supply channels. After all, the only stable output of "Pokémon Farm" is various berries and milk. The supply of sweet sweets is not very stable.

In addition to these, the only thing Lan Meng has a stable supply is the various meat provided by the stronghold.

The second is to seek guests who can help him practice cooking. Cooking is the foundation of Lan Meng's life, and its importance is self-evident.

The third is the direction that has nothing to do with work, such as guests who can teach him martial arts or teach him some knowledge, such as the "Scroll of Art" that is still in dust, and the "Scroll of Doll Making" just obtained , the knowledge in these scrolls is very important, but the problem is that Lan Meng himself is like a rootless duckweed, without even a foundation, and it is useless to have a blueprint for the top floor.

After thinking about it again and again, Lan Meng first crossed out the second option.

It's not that improving cooking skills is not important, but according to Lan Meng's understanding of his own system, there is no option to 'upgrade skills with one click' at all, and cooking is an empirical subject, and he hasn't fully learned what his teacher teaches , It is better to continue to practice than to go on and on.

As for the first and third, he has struggled for a long time. After all, food supply channels are things that can be used all the time, but now that his "work" has temporarily stabilized, he also hopes to increase some "after-school time". After all, the reason why he came to learn cooking is to live a better life. If he becomes a robot, then the cart before the horse.

After successfully convincing herself with "the current number of customers and the supply is basically sufficient", Lan Meng decided to use the second "Fate Fragment" in a happy mood.

Lan Meng, who was holding two scrolls in his hand, glanced at the 'Scroll of Spells' that he saw dizzy, and then glanced at the shield placed by the gate, and he decisively decided to put it back in the box.

'Doll making related'

As Lan Meng made a decision, the "Fate Fragment" in his hand also slowly dissipated.

Immediately afterwards, a pleasant bell rang.

"Ding~"

Hearing the familiar melodious ringtone, Lan Meng was refreshed, but when the store door was pushed open, he was stunned, because the people who appeared outside the door at this time were somewhat unexpected.

An apricot-colored short-haired girl wearing a white beret, a white vest, red shorts, and a pair of knee-high open-toed leather boots is carefully pushing open the store door and poking her head in.

To be honest, Lan Meng felt that compared with the patronizing guests, this posture looked like a break-in.

However, the other party obviously guided the guests who discovered the "Gate of Destiny Food" through the "Fate Fragments", so even if they really broke through the empty door, they were still their own goals.

So Lan Meng walked directly towards the other party.

"Guest, welcome, is there anything you want to eat?"

As Lan Meng's voice fell, the other party first showed a surprised expression, as if Lan Meng's words were somewhat beyond her expectations, but then he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the other party did not answer Lan Meng's question, but instead asked Lan Meng a question.

"Sir, is this your shop?"

"Yes."

I don't know if it's Lan Meng's wrong sentence, but I always feel that the other party's eyes become a little subtle after I finish speaking, as if saying, "Are you planning to open this store here?"

It's not that Lan Meng can read minds, but that the apricot-haired girl's thoughts are almost all on her face, which is really easy to guess.

However, according to Lan Meng's previous communication with Ying Lili, Al, and several other regular customers, he was used to the location of the "Fate Food Gate", so he directly ignored the other party's subtle eyes. Being guided by the 'Gate of Destiny Eater' is certainly what it takes to be yourself.

Before Lan Meng waited long, the other party's eyes were unconsciously attracted by the snacks in the 'cabinet' near the door.

The smile on Lan Meng's face became even brighter...

Chapter 23 Desserts I've Never Tasted

As a chef, Lan Meng's method of improving his skills is very direct—practice.

Although it is basically a trial product, the amount of Lanmeng generally selected during production will not be the same as normal cooking, but even so there will still be a lot of finished products.

Some of the bad-tasting Lanmeng chose to discard them directly, but some of the finished products went directly into Lanmeng's stomach, and some of them were used by Lanmeng to feed Connor.

Lan Meng doesn't need to waste food, and Connor can eat good food for free, which can be described as a win-win situation.

And some small snacks Blue Dream will leave a part in the cabinet as an exhibit.

After all, unlike ordinary food, most of the snacks can be placed for a long time. In Lan Meng's view, the real food is much more attractive than a simple menu.

At this moment, the girl in front of her was obviously attracted by the cake in the cupboard.

"A lot of cakes that I haven't seen before~ Mister shop manager, are you a chef from outside the island?"

The other party was lying on the side of the cabinet and looked at Lan Meng curiously.

Lan Meng was still thinking about how to answer the other party's question, but Yae Shenzi who was playing with Maomaomon raised his head unconsciously.

In her opinion, the other party's way of inquiring about information is too rough, it seems that she is so soft and silent, I'm afraid Lan Meng won't find out until she comes to a conclusion, it's just a bit useless... morality.

Compared with Yae Shenzi who looks like everyone to him because of his own reasons, Lan Meng doesn't feel that the other party is testing him, he just simply feels that the girl in front of him seems a little too naive, but... he doesn't hate this either. People with this kind of personality, or in other words, he feels more relaxed getting along with people with this kind of personality.

But after all, it was the first time meeting a guest, and it was naturally impossible for Lan Meng to tell the other party his secret, so he simply followed the other party's words.

"Yes, I am indeed from outside the island."

"Sure enough~ There are a lot of dim sum that I haven't seen before..."

After the other party sighed very naturally, he didn't intend to speak again, which made Yae Miko, who was going to eavesdrop to see if he could get any news by the way, stunned for a while.

It wasn't until this moment that she suddenly realized one thing. Maybe the apricot-colored short-haired girl in front of her was just asking casually just now?

All of a sudden, she just felt that she had punched the cotton.

But at this moment, the other party started to mutter to himself again.

"It looks like some cakes... I really want to taste it, but recently all my money has been used to buy materials, and I don't have much money until the things are sold..."

The other party muttered in a low voice, trying to make up his mind before looking at Lan Meng again.

"Mr. Store Manager, do you have any cheaper snacks here that are not available on the island?"

Cheap snacks are a trivial matter. For Lan Meng, who hopes to get a task or a "gift" from the other party, let alone cheap, it can be free, so what is difficult for him is what the other party says is "different from the desserts on the island." cuisine'.

So it is better to figure out the requirements first.

"I haven't been on the island for a long time, so I don't know much about the dim sum on the island. I don't know if you have ever eaten the dim sum I made, so can you tell me some dim sum that you have a deep impression on? In this way, I also It’s good to choose dim sum that you haven’t eaten before.”

Faced with Lan Meng's question, the other party did not intend to refuse at all, but tilted his head slightly while pointing his cheek with his finger as if thinking.

"The biscuits baked by the neighbor's aunt are crunchy, and the cakes made by my mother are soft..."

Because it is not a professional chef, the other party naturally did not report the name directly, but from a certain point of view, this can be regarded as saving Lan Meng. After all, different worlds often have different names for the same thing, even if the other party reports The name of the dim sum, Lan Meng, probably couldn't be connected. This kind of introduction, which seems to be a layman, is convenient for Lan Meng to do the elimination method.

And following the other party's narration, Lan Meng hasn't decided what kind of snacks to make for the time being, but at least one thing is confirmed, that is, the girl in front of her must be very popular on the "island" in the other party's mouth, because the snacks reported by the other party Most of the producers are different except for a 'dim sum shop owner'.

But that's about all the information the other party can provide, Lan Meng walked towards the kitchen while signaling the other party to wait in the store for a while.

According to the other party's description, Lan Meng directly gave up some more common desserts, such as cookies, cup cakes, egg cakes and the like.

Since the other party's request is 'uneaten snacks', Lan Meng has two choices.

One is to directly make Chinese-style dim sum based on the dim sum reported by the other party, which is basically Western-style dim sum, which can basically guarantee that the other party has not eaten it.

The second is to still choose Western-style dim sum, which is naturally more difficult, but it should be more suitable for the other party's eating habits.

After some consideration, Lan Meng decided to choose the second option, because according to previous observations, the girl in front of her didn't know what it had to do with her "wish", but she could know the general character of the other party through simple communication.

Sunny, innocent, boyish and full of strong curiosity at the same time, otherwise it would be impossible to specifically express the desire to eat snacks that have not been eaten before.

That being the case... Lan Meng has a rough plan.

First of all, in order to fit the other party's eating habits, you can't choose too strange dishes. Secondly, in order to ensure that the other party has not eaten it, it is best not to choose common recipes. At the same time, the choice of ingredients should be more common. After all, even if he is willing to make snacks for free, but You also need to consider the other person's point of view.

As a girl, if you suddenly meet a strange man who is courteous for nothing, then not only will you fail to complete the "commission" of the other party, but it may even arouse the other party's unnecessary vigilance.

Thinking like this, Lan Meng took out some commonly used ingredients.

Eggs, milk, low-gluten flour and cheese.

These are one of the most commonly used ingredients for making cakes, and Lan Meng intends to use these commonly used ingredients to make a dessert that the other party has never eaten.

The first step is to pre-process the ingredients.

The milk is heated, the eggs separate the whites from the yolks, and the cheese melts.

Generally speaking, it is best to let the cheese melt at room temperature naturally, so that the taste is better, but considering that it does not need to be eaten directly but added to the cooking, and in order to save time, Lan Meng simply heated it directly in the oven. It is probably enough to soften until the fingers can easily press in.

In addition to the regular ingredients, there is another very important spice———vanilla pods.

This is a flavoring material widely used in high-end cigarettes, famous wines, cream, coffee, cocoa, chocolate and other foods. This time, Lan Meng intends to use it to flavor the next snacks he will make...

Chapter 24 Special Cheesecake

The milk produced in the big milk tank of Pokémon Ranch is served with chopped vanilla pods and vanilla seeds, and even without excessive processing, it exudes a faint special milky fragrance.

Heat it until bubbling around the edges, then stop the heat and cover to let it keep warm naturally and continue processing the ingredients.

Beat the separated egg yolks and whites separately, and add sugar to the egg yolks until the color becomes lighter and the volume becomes larger. This is to add the softened cream cheese before, mix well, and stir until there are no large pieces, then add the flour .

Because the flour is easy to coagulate when it touches the liquid, so you can draw a big circle at this time and then slowly narrow the range for stirring.

But after stirring everything evenly, it will be the egg yolk paste that Blue Dream needs.

At this time, add a little milk and mix well to ensure that it will not coagulate before adding the remaining milk. The amount of milk is selected according to personal taste. Considering that the order is a girl this time, Lan Meng specially added more A little more, so the taste will be smoother and tender.

After the egg yolk paste is processed, start to beat the egg white.

The protein does not need so many steps, just add the white sugar into it twice to beat until it becomes stiff foam, and then directly add all the egg yolk paste.

At this time, I started to deal with the cake molds. Because of the need to ensure the taste and appearance, Lan Meng chose the 'water bath method' to make cakes.

First, spread a layer of cake paper inside the mold, then add a portion of water, then continue to spread a layer of baking paper, and then pour the mixture of egg yolk paste and protein into the upper layer of cake paper.

The continuously spreading solution squeezed the water between the two layers of cake paper, but it did not overflow. At this time, the cake can be put into the oven and baked directly. some water.

This last step may seem odd, but it is actually very important to this recipe.
