As for the secret recipe of the fairy wine below, thanks to the many girls he met recently who can provide him with influence points, Siji’s current savings are actually enough to buy it.
But he wasn't going to buy it.
After all, he has suffered losses from these high-end-looking things more than once.
The products in the system mall that have the word "Xian" in their names and do not directly provide items and skills, but only provide recipes or refining methods are almost all scams.
Many of the materials required for it cannot be found on Earth at all, not to mention that the manufacturing process often involves Samadhi True Fire and Sun True Fire.
God have mercy on him, Si Ji can even knock out a reactor - don't worry about why a person who failed high school math can rub a reactor by hand, with the instructions and operating corrections provided by the system, this level of 'I think' is not a problem, anyway, he made it - but he really can't make the real fire of the sun. It's not necessary to drive a Gundam into the sun to take a sauna just to practice a magic weapon, right?
Don't say anything about just being outside. The temperature of the sun's surface is only over 6,000 degrees. It's so easy to create real solar fire. Not to mention the four seasons, the people on Earth would have done it a long time ago.
I don’t know if the Gundam will be broken by then, but Shiki will definitely be cooked.
In short, Si Ji felt that he would never be able to cultivate immortality in this lifetime. If he was lucky, he might be able to live a few hundred more years by getting some peaches from the mall. If he was unlucky, he would be like an ordinary person and die at around a hundred years old.
"I earn points faster than I spend them..."
Originally, Si Ji was quite pleased with the speed at which he earned influence points during this period - he had made a lot of money from showing off at the previous banquet. However, after just a few days, he had almost spent all of it.
If I couldn't make a lot of money from Yamada Fairy every day, and if I didn't have to worry about not being able to pay the system rental, I might have to put on my vest again and play the role of the Crooked-Mouth Dragon King.
Wait, Yukinoshita Yukino has also moved into the apartment, so can I go over there and get some benefits from her?
Thinking of this, Shiki opened the system's task page and found that there were indeed two daily tasks on it. One was to scratch the chin of the Yamada fairy, and the other was to see the style of Yukinoshita Yukino's panties today.
However, it is stated on the page that only one of the two options can be completed, leaving no opportunity for Siji to reap double the benefits.
What a stingy person.
After thinking for a long time, Si Ji felt that his brain was just spinning in vain and decided to put future matters aside for the time being.
"That's it for now, let's eat first."
Since Washimiya-ryo does not include breakfast, there is no need to worry about the breakfast for the two guests.
Yamada Fairy is a good cook, so she never has to worry about not having breakfast.
As for Yukinoshita Yukino, Shiki had no interest in showing her affection.
After all, although 'Jiu Gong Shiki' had only met the other party three times, 'Qiu Ling Wenping' had close contact with her. Even if he wanted to, it would not be a problem for him to get to know her more deeply.
In short, based on these few contacts, after the favor of "free dinner" has been given, actions such as bringing breakfast to the other party will not help to narrow the distance, but may instead alienate the other party.
Yukinoshita Yukino doesn't like this kind of flattering behavior. Because of her past experiences, she will keep a distance from such people.
If you rashly try to get closer to others by doing such blatant favors, you will only be treated coldly.
Anyway, the bet lasts for three months, so there is no need to rush. You can take your time. Boiling a frog in warm water is the most harmful.
When you don’t have to consider others, breakfast in all seasons should be as simple as possible.
He steamed two potatoes, crushed them with a colander, and then mixed them with mayonnaise, crushed hard-boiled eggs, drained chopped onions, crispy fried bacon chopped into small pieces, and sweet fruit corn kernels, and sprinkled a little black pepper to make a paste similar to potato salad.
Then I used the frying pan that had been used to fry the bacon to fry four slices of toast with the edges cut off, spread the egg and potato salad on them, and cut them diagonally to make a simple sandwich.
In fact, the filling would have a better flavor if a little bit of apple cider vinegar was added to the filling, but as we said, keep things simple, and we didn’t have apple cider vinegar at home, so we just had to make do with it.
After that, he heated up a cup of milk from the refrigerator, and a simple breakfast was ready. If he couldn’t finish it, he could even wrap it in tin foil and put it in a lunch box to take to school as a snack. It was quick, convenient and delicious, and it was the most cost-effective breakfast.
The mashed potato filling has a solid texture, the chopped eggs add flavor, the onions relieve greasiness, and the sour and sweet mayonnaise is the king of seasonings in salads, not to mention the sweet and plump corn kernels and the crispy bacon bits with a light salty taste.
The toast is fried until crispy, and has a special smoky flavor like bacon. Obviously, the main body is just bread and potatoes, and it looks like an unremarkable and simple combination sandwich, but the rich taste and taste changes fill the mouth after one bite. The carnival of carbohydrates can stimulate the primitive satisfaction and pleasure of human beings, and chewing and swallowing in big mouthfuls can awaken the wild romance of men. In short, you can enjoy the meal in all seasons.
After drinking the milk, Si Ji went out with his schoolbag. However, in the courtyard, he happened to see another girl in a sailor suit who was about to go out.
"Hey," Shiki greeted him nonchalantly, "Good morning, Yukinoshita-san."
"Good morning, Mr. Landlord with a milky white unknown liquid on his lips." The girl responded cheerfully in a calm tone.
"It's just milk, don't use such weird terms!"
Chapter 114 Ordering Food
The two of them walked one after the other on the road leading to Fengzhizaki, and to others they looked like two strangers.
But Si Ji, who was walking behind, was talking to the other person without paying any attention.
"How was dinner yesterday? Since there are new tenants moving in after a long absence, I still prepared it quite seriously."
“It’s so delicious that it makes me wonder why this guy is still a landlord.”
Yukinoshita Yukino, who was about two steps ahead, was silent for a moment, then said truthfully, "With this skill, Washimiya-san won't have to worry about starving to death in his life."
"Do you really have to use such a thorny way of speaking?" Si Ji threatened from behind: "Be careful or I'll raise your rent!"
"We have already signed a contract, so we cannot raise the price temporarily."
Yukinoshita Yukino first responded in a serious tone, but considering that Shiki might kick her out in anger, and that houses in this area were really hard to rent, her tone softened a little: "To put it another way, it's so delicious that you can't help but want to order it."
"High-end restaurants like those with three-star tires generally don't let their customers order food," Si Ji retorted.
"That's why I won't eat at the Tire Restaurant either." Yukino replied calmly.
"That's just because your pockets are as clean as your ou... ahem, face, right?"
"I think it's a very disrespectful thing to associate a person's economic status with their physical characteristics."
It seemed that she realized that what Shiki wanted to use as a metaphor just now was not a face.
"People who don't respect others generally don't get respect from others." Si Ji was not afraid at all of the dissatisfaction in the girl's words.
If he had not decided yesterday to use his true identity to build a good relationship with the opponent and then backstab the opponent at the critical moment, he would not mind directly confronting the opponent now. After all, he is not Feiyangyang who is short of women and does not care about the beauty of the other party at all.
Yukino was silent again, then said, "That's true, although I'm not interested in respecting those fickle guys."
"Who?" Si Ji blinked.
"The common people in this world," the girl replied calmly.
"You are unexpectedly antisocial..." Si Ji was a little surprised.
"I don't have any intention of taking revenge on society, so I'm not anti-social, I'm just simply cynical."
Yukino said calmly.
Si Ji took two steps forward and looked at the other person's profile.
There was neither loss nor sadness in her expression, nor was there the kind of excitement that is generally called "cynical". Instead, there was only an almost numb indifference.
This won't do. If she really enters the state of 'her heart has been taken away by suffering, and there is no more joy or sorrow in this life', then where can I find fun... No, how can I get influence points from her?
Anyway, try your best to make her cheer "Yeah!"
"For the healthy and orderly development of human society and the safety of all mankind, let Yukinoshita-san order the dishes for dinner tonight," Shiki said seriously, "What would you like to eat?"
"I've already said that I don't have any anti-human or anti-social tendencies..."
Seeing that Si Ji didn't seem to be willing to give in, the girl could only sigh and then asked, "Can I order anything?"
"Well, I don't think we can get the raw materials for kiviyak (pickled puffin, an Eskimo delicacy), stink rays (a South Korean delicacy), and dried shark (an Icelandic delicacy) for the time being..."
Si Ji began to worry seriously.
A cross-shaped vein popped out on Yukinoshita Yukino's forehead: "Unfortunately, my landlord and I have different tastes. I don't want to eat something that stinks worse than canned herrings."
It seems that she has a wide range of interests. She is always reading, and she is not just reading light novels. She even knows that Shiki is teasing her with these ingredients.
"Then what do you want to eat? It doesn't matter if it's a little troublesome to prep. I'm going back home anyway." Si Ji asked.
"Then we'll have oxtail soup and yam rice," Yukino turned her head to look at Shiki, and then she saw that he actually had a look on his face that said 'that's all?' She didn't know why she suddenly felt a little angry, so she continued, "And edamame tofu for dessert."
Edamame tofu is not edamame and tofu, but tofu made with edamame and eggs.
The finished product tastes somewhat similar to pudding, but has the fragrance and sweetness of tofu. It is delicious even when eaten alone, and can also be paired with various dipping sauces to create a variety of flavors on the tip of the tongue.
However, due to the complicated steps, this dessert has not been widely popularized and is only available in izakayas in some places.
Yukino had eaten here once at a local izakaya when she was taken to Sendai by her sister, so she had some impression of it.
By choosing this dessert, Yukinoshita also had a provocative look in her mind: "Didn't you say you can make anything? Then try it!"
She thought Shiki would ask about edamame tofu, but Shiki just asked calmly, "Is Sendai style okay?"
"No, no problem."
Now it was Yukinoshita Yukino's turn to feel unconfident. Could it be that what she ordered was really just a simple home-cooked meal?
No, no, no. Whether it is oxtail soup or yam rice, it is a test of the chef’s skills.
If the chef's skills in making the broth for oxtail soup are not good enough, the soup will easily have a strange smell. Not only will it not have the unique aroma of oxtail soup, it will even be worse than ordinary ox bone broth.
Although yam rice is very simple to make, it has very high requirements for the ingredients. It is not a quality issue, but only by selecting yams that are suitable for covering rice can delicious yam rice be made. Otherwise, it is just a simple yam paste mixed with rice.
Not to mention rare things like edamame and tofu.
Could it be that Washimiya Shiki has no idea what he is talking about and is just pretending to be nice and trying to get away with it during dinner?
But looking at Shiki's confident look, Yukinoshita Yukino still felt shaken.
"Where did Washimiya-san learn cooking skills?" she couldn't help but ask.
"I taught myself," Shiki replied, "but after I figured out the osmotic pressure and liquid tension, my cooking skills improved by leaps and bounds." "If my common sense is correct, those two words don't seem to have anything to do with cooking," Yukino said, narrowing her eyes.
And Si Ji was talking nonsense in a serious tone: "For science students, as long as they integrate the knowledge they have learned and understand everything, cooking will no longer be a difficult task."
Chapter 115: The Science Student Falls in Love and Tries to Prove
Yukinoshita Yukino naturally would not believe this statement that the science student fell into the kitchen and tried to prove something.
She just felt like she was just being perfunctory.
"Your next words were 'If you don't want to talk about it, forget it.'"
"If you don't want to talk about it, then... well."
The two said in unison.
Having predicted the girl's words with the martial arts secret of 'the first to be the first', Shiki looked very proud.
Those martial arts masters in ancient times who had been pursuing this state all their lives would probably be so angry that they would crawl out of their graves if they saw him using his skills in such a place.
Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Shiki who was swaying proudly around her and couldn't help feeling a little tired.
After all, she had a soft spot and could no longer be as sharp-tongued as before, which caused her to accumulate a lot of pressure without realizing it.
So she decisively decided to change the topic and divert Si Ji's attention, at least to prevent this guy from continuing to hang around her and attract strange looks from other students who were attending the school.
"Come to think of it, Miss Yamada, you haven't gone out yet so late, right? You won't be late for school?" she asked.
"Didn't she tell you yesterday?" Si Ji calmed down, but looked a little surprised: "She dropped out of school a long time ago."
"drop out?"
Yukinoshita Yukino paused, she frowned and looked at Shiki: "Could it be that you dropped out of school for such a weird reason as 'future couple'?"
"Don't treat me as the culprit as if nothing happened. I've only known her for a month, okay?"
Si Ji hurriedly explained: "The child dropped out of school when he was in elementary school."
In fact, Shiki didn't know the main reason why Yamada Fairy dropped out of school. When Yamada Chris talked to him about this topic, he just vaguely said that Yamada Fairy wanted to pursue freedom.
However, Si Ji knew that the girl was a person with her own ideas. Since she decided to drop out of school, it must be a decision she made after careful consideration.
Although Si Ji could not fully agree with her choice, after all, school life was not only about learning basic knowledge, but also had a considerable impact on people's basic values and common sense.
The current Yamada Fairy obviously has a good personality, is cheerful, lively and considerate, but she always unconsciously does things that seem quite willful to others. This is probably one of the reasons.
However, Si Ji has not accepted her love confession so far, and his relationship with the girl is just that of landlord and tenant. He has no right to comment on her past choices.
"Is it just a one-sided show of goodwill from that child?" Yukinoshita Yukino raised her eyebrows: "What about your attitude? Whether you accept or reject, making a decisive decision is the best for that child."
"This is my privacy!... Although I really want to say this, there is nothing I can't do. I clearly rejected her at that time."
Shiki sighed and said.
Yukinoshita Yukino stared at his expression for a long time, as if trying to confirm the truthfulness of his words.
After that, she turned around and walked towards Fengzhizaki.
"I see. I think I understand. Even though you were rejected, the girl still attacked you, and you also enjoyed the feeling of being chased by girls, so it turned out like this, right?"
She concluded indifferently.
