Crossover Anime: Randomly Setting Up a Stall with Binchotan Charcoal

"Everyone come out quickly! I've brought the owner of the stinky tofu shop. You all come and try it. If even one person says it's not good, I'll eat shit right here and now."

"Wow, Grassland, are you serious?"

The colleagues who were called out were all stunned.

"Hmph, I, Caochang, speak my mind and hate being slandered, not even by my superiors. Today I'll show you whether this stinky tofu really costs 1000 Dan per serving, and whether it's worth 1000 Dan per serving."

In the summer, as he heated the oil in the wok, he listened with his eyes slightly wide open.

Goodness, how come a junior investigator like you, who was instantly defeated by Touka, is this brave?

"Boss, I'll buy three portions first, please have everyone try them."

Xia Tian nodded and silently opened the pickling bucket. The smell of stinky tofu wafted out immediately, strong and fast. With the addition of frying in oil, it instantly spread for dozens of meters.

And then a gentle breeze blew up in front of the yard, spreading the smell everywhere.

Even passersby outside the countermeasures bureau couldn't help but stop and look around.

Everyone searched left and right.

The source of the stench was finally identified. Through the gate, they saw someone in the front yard of the countermeasures office eating the stinky thing with a very interesting expression.

"Holy crap, the CCG toilets are blown up! Has it been invaded by ghouls?"

"What?! The CCG got completely thrashed!"

"Run! The CCG is being beaten to their knees by ghouls and they're eating shit!"

Chaos and rumors arose in an instant and spread far and wide.

Inside the countermeasures bureau.

"Wow, this thing is edible."

The colleagues in the countermeasures bureau looked at each other, but seeing that Caochang was making such a firm promise, and that it was a matter of personal integrity and reputation, they were afraid that if they didn't give him some face today, things would not end well.

"Please enjoy your stinky tofu."

Summer loves a good show, so they quickly made the stinky tofu and enthusiastically invited everyone to join in.

She grabbed a portion from the grassy area and ate it with gusto, her little expression radiating happiness.

Are you sure it's safe to eat?

A female colleague held her breath and asked in a muffled voice.

"Eat it! It smells bad, just like natto, but it tastes a hundred times better than natto," said Caochang earnestly.

Looking at everyone, he seemed to be saying that not eating would be disrespectful to me.

"Eat it, what else can we do?" At this point, all the investigators hated Kusaba's superior, Mado Kureo.

"Ignore the stench, it's just a piece of tofu, everyone, eat it." The female colleague looked at the meadow, pinched her nose, and ate it.

Others followed suit.

You know what, you can't smell it, but you can still taste the aroma after you put it in your mouth.

"good to eat!"

"Wow, this tastes amazing!"

"This isn't called stinky tofu; it should be called fragrant tofu."

From dislike to liking, it only takes a few seconds of chewing stinky tofu.

No one can escape the "it smells so good" principle. Deep-fried tofu loses its odor and retains its fragrance, especially after being drizzled with sauce, which doubles the aroma.

The rich, spicy aroma hits you right in the head.

The unassuming black tofu, when paired with the soul-stirring sauce, becomes oily, savory, and fragrant.

Chapter 39 Mado Kureo: It smells so good!

the other side

The people in the antique café waited anxiously.

They arrived two hours early to wait, based on the time when Ryoko Fueguchi met Summer.

But when the time came, there was no sign of any tricycles.

"Flute Mouth, you stay here and wait. The rest of you, go and look in other areas. Maybe the boss has just moved his stall to a different location."

"Let's meet at the coffee shop in half an hour."

As time passed, Yomo Renji, Fueguchi, and the others returned to the cafe disappointed.

I shook my head; the coffee shop was deathly silent.

"hateful!"

"Could this just be a joke played by the gods? Why did they let us eat it, only to have it vanish in an instant?" Shifang Lian Shi clenched her fists, her heart filled with helplessness.

"There is still hope. The apes haven't returned yet. There is still hope."

Iruma Nobuyuki's eyes were red, and he kept praying.

She still remembers the taste of a few pieces of stinky tofu. The black tofu pieces were fried until crispy and dry, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Every bite was fragrant. Even the sweetness of the minced garlic and the spiciness of the chili made every dish so delicious.

Does that mean the smell of stinky tofu will only be a memory forever?

For the first time, she felt that this was how a human being should live, but why did God only give them one short night to experience it?

Inside the coffee shop!

Silence fell.

If they had never seen the light, they could have endured the darkness.

It’s been a while!

Touka suddenly stood up: "I'll look again. If I can't find it in Anteiku, I'll go to other wards. If I can't find it in Tokyo, I'll search the whole world!"

Yoshimura remained silent, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, though he felt a pang of resentment.

silent for a moment,

"Everyone....."

The voice has not fallen,

As the last person in the coffee shop, Yuanmo Gujian Yuan'er rushed into the coffee shop in a hurry.

"found it!"

Everyone froze in their tracks.

"where?"

Under everyone's eager gaze, Koma En'er grabbed a cup of coffee and gulped it down, not even having time to speak. It took her a while to stammer out a reply.

"In...in, inside the Countermeasures Bureau branch."

"What? Is the boss a ghoul? We're going to arrest him!" Impatient Touka turned around and put on her mask. "No, I have to go save him."

"Wait... let Yuan'er finish speaking." Iruma Xuan pulled Dong Xiang back.

"Everyone is getting really anxious, hurry up and say what's on your mind."

All eyes were once again on Kojima Yuuji.

"He shouldn't have been arrested. I saw it myself outside. People from the counter-offensive were surrounding the owner, buying stinky tofu. They were buying several servings each, as if money were no object. The owner didn't seem to be forced."

"I guess he was invited to set up a stall at the countermeasures bureau."

There was another moment of silence.

Why is he there when he's supposed to be dead?

Sifanglian said, "Manager, should we still go? Could this be a trap?"

“If the Countermeasures Bureau really had control over the food we could eat, they wouldn’t be targeting just a few of us. This is very likely just a coincidence.” The shopkeeper shook his head; he had his own intelligence, and this wasn’t the work of the Countermeasures Bureau.

"Yes, whether it's a trap or not, it's a risk we're willing to take."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

The impatient Touka took the lead, and the others exchanged glances and rushed out as well. Irimi Kaname was right; with their strength, even if it was a trap, they could easily escape unscathed.

#@#@

Countermeasure sentences are divided into parts.

Kusaba's boss, the old-fashioned Mado Kureo, was eventually dragged out to try stinky tofu, and he initially refused to eat it due to the stench.

He would rather die of thirst, starvation, or be hacked to death by ghouls than eat such foul-smelling food.

But when Yamen forced a piece of stinky tofu into his mouth, all he could say was...

"It's delicious."

"This tastes amazing! If you can't make a comparison, don't make one. Comparing natto to this is an insult to stinky tofu!"

"Boss, pack three portions for me, I want to take them home for my daughter... I'll eat them myself."

After hearing Mado's words, the other investigators also changed their minds, saying that such delicious food should be shared with family.

Immediately, people rushed to place additional orders.

"Yes, the boss packed three portions for me to take home too."

"I was here first, I want two servings."

Summer's feelings at this moment are hard to describe.

His target group should be those ghouls, right? If he had known that the CCG investigators were also easy targets, why use gem soybeans? They can eat ordinary soybeans too.

The prices of these two items differ by three times, a complete waste of a chance to make a fortune.

At this very moment,

The people in the antique hall arrived late and saw this scene through the open iron gate.

The boss was incredibly busy, a little guy next to him was collecting money like crazy, and the investigators were enjoying the stinky tofu immensely.

Such a harmonious scene, there must be some kind of trap.

Investigators are combat personnel, not movie stars.

"Yes, that's the taste."

Sifang Lianshi, what a composed person he is! His eyes are shining as he looks at the plates of stinky tofu on the tricycle in the courtyard.

"Manager, what do we do now?"

Touka was also a little confused when she saw this scene.

"The Countermeasures Bureau's gate has a detection function, so we can't get in. Fueguchi, could you try to call the boss out?"

Ryoko Fueguchi was taken aback, clearly embarrassed, but still earnestly said to Natsumi, "Um... the owner of the stinky tofu shop."

"Ok?"

Summer looked out in the direction of the sound.

Then I saw everyone in the antique hall. I recognized Yoshika, Touka, Yoshimura Kozen... even Hinami was there.

Summer smirked

Good grief, everyone's here at the antiques hall. Are you planning an attack? Aren't you afraid of being wiped out?

After making eye contact with Natsume, Fueguchi Ryoko timidly asked, "Boss, can you come out and sell stinky tofu? We're too embarrassed to go in and buy things from this public place."

Xia Tian glanced up at the gate's detection device: "..."

That's a really lame excuse.

No, I'm only now realizing it, but it seems he also walked through the main gate to come in?

Summer glared at the grassland. Good heavens, so you were testing me all along.

“A regular customer came looking for me, so I’d better go out and sell it.”

Hearing this, Caochang felt a little embarrassed and said he would buy it all for them, but there were still too few investigators, and they couldn't even buy 200 servings of stinky tofu.
