People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

"Then juice will do. Thank you for your hard work, Manager Baiyu!"

"After all, you are a customer. It's not hard work for you, and it's not a time-consuming thing. Please wait a moment."

"Okay!" x2

After Shiraha left, Echizen Nanako said with some emotion, "What a coincidence! I didn't expect that the shop you mentioned, Toyomi, is the same shop that Uncle talked about before."

"It is indeed a coincidence. If my uncles knew that I had been to the store, they would definitely ask all sorts of questions. I guess they will have a headache tomorrow."

Hisako thought for a moment and said, "I never imagined that samurai Nanjiro would have such a gentle niece. How amazing..."

"Indeed..." xn

Nanako Echizen paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Uncle is actually a very kind person. The reason he and Auntie were able to get together was because Uncle not only protected Auntie but was also a very righteous person."

"Huh? Is that so? But I can't tell at all right now."

"It's probably because Uncle is now focusing more on training Ryoma..."

Pandemonica suddenly seemed to remember something, pushed up her glasses, and asked with some curiosity, "You and Feng Shi went to the same school?"

"Yes, but Fengshi and I aren't in the same major. We met during a combined class. What's wrong?"

Pandemonica tilted her head and said, "If I remember correctly, Toyoshi is at Tokyo Metropolitan University. Since it's a political science major, it must be a political-related major."

"correct."

"So you're a humanities major too?"

"correct."

"Pander, what do you want?"

Pandemonica sighed and said, "Boss, Tokyo Metropolitan University, humanities, don't you think of anyone?"

"who?"

This statement startled Zdelada and the others. Suddenly, Yuko Ichihara clapped her hands and exclaimed, "Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Auntie! You teach at Tokyo Metropolitan University, don't you?!"

"Huh?! Oh right! You two aren't also Auntie's students, are you?!"

"Auntie?" x2

Fujiwara Toyomi also felt that she was too lucky; Yuuki Kyoko was actually from their family! This was amazing!

Shuchiin has Fujiwara Chika, and his friend Echizen Nanako encourages him. Echizen Ryoma and Echizen Nanjiro are also friends of Shiraha. But the most crucial thing is that his aunt is actually his teacher! What a coincidence!

She'd already planned it all out: multiple fronts. She'd go find Kyoko Yuuki after class the day after tomorrow, and she was determined to call her "Auntie"! No one could stop her! If she could get Kyoko Yuuki to help her, that would be amazing—a classic case of stealthily attacking the heart of the enemy!

Just as Fujiwara Toyomi was inexplicably excited, the other side of the sea was peaceful. At this time, the pirates had already begun preparing their dinner and getting ready to rest, with only some marines patrolling or traveling from time to time.

Some of them were searching for Bai Yu, while others were on routine night patrols. As for Impel Down... this place doesn't need any patrol boats. Even the most notorious pirates wouldn't bother coming here for no reason.

"Gion-nee, are we here so early just to wait like this?"

"What else can we do? We definitely need to get there early, otherwise we'll waste time with Garp and the others' noise. But Sakazuki hasn't recovered yet. It seems like Bai Yu doesn't like Sakazuki."

Tina thought for a moment and said, "Whether we hate him or not has nothing to do with us, Gion-nee. Is that world over there really that fun?"

"Yes, living in that world would be a very happy thing... at least compared to this world."

Tina stretched and said, "I'm really looking forward to it. But speaking of which, Gion-nee, you've seemed a bit down these past few days. What's wrong?"

Gion sighed and said somewhat irritably, "You're still talking, it's all because of that guy, Kakei. I'm really fed up with him. I've rejected him so many times, but he's like a leech. I'm so annoyed by him."

Tina exclaimed in realization, "I thought something had happened. But, Gion-nee, he's been pursuing you so persistently, dozens of times, probably hundreds of times. He's really persistent."

"But I'm so annoyed, really annoyed. Do you think whether you like someone or not depends on how persistent you are? Obviously not, otherwise there wouldn't be so many unrequited loves. Just thinking about it gives me a headache."

"But, Gion-nee, you've never said what your criteria are for choosing a partner, and you don't have any close male friends. There are many Navy people who like you, but they're not a good match for you and you can't meet them. Of course, you've always been very persistent in trying to meet Kake whenever you have the chance."

Momousagi rolled her eyes and said, "That's why it's so annoying. I don't know how to make him give up, otherwise it'll be the 101st, the 102nd... I feel like he can annoy me for the rest of my life! I even feel a little scared."

“Eh…it does feel a bit scary, but, Gion-nee, I have a way to give you some peace and quiet.”

"any solution?!"

Seeing Momousagi's somewhat excited expression, Tina felt a little helpless. Momousagi seemed to be more than just annoying Kake; at the very least, she was annoyed by his repeated confessions.

"Find a lover."

Momousagi rolled her eyes and said, "Do you even need to tell me? Where am I supposed to find that?"

"Hey, it's not like I'm asking you to actually find someone. You just need to tell everyone that you have a lover. That way, you can teach him a lesson for harassment."

"But what if he conducts various investigations, trying to find that non-existent person?"

Tina's eyes lit up with a mischievous grin as she said, "Then why not find someone he can't find, and someone he'll be utterly crushed in every way if he does?"

"Eh?"

"Hehe... Gion-nee, since you're already so familiar with Manager Shiraha and you have such a good impression of him, why not just choose Manager Shiraha?"

Hearing this, especially the emphasis on the word "familiar," Momousagi immediately recalled the awkward scene from before and blushed, saying, "Tina! What are you saying!"

Tina grinned mischievously and said, "Tina thinks it's a good match. Gion-nee, you've never been as gentle to any man as Manager Shiraha. Besides, you lent your sword to Manager Shiraha and you're so familiar with him. Manager Shiraha has everything he wants. Tina thinks Gion-nee is a perfect match."

Momousagi's heart raced a little, but she still blushed and said irritably, "This is fine to talk about here, don't tell Manager Shiraha!"

“Gion-nee, I’m not kidding, Tina really does. From an outsider’s perspective, Gion-nee, you still have a good impression of Manager Shiraha, you could even say you like him. Manager Shiraha is a good person, and you don’t intend to stay single forever, so you should really consider it.”

Although Momousagi's face was still flushed, she didn't refute it. After a long while, she sighed and said, "Let's not talk about me, Tina. I've always seen how much you care about Shiro, but I haven't seen you..."

Before Momousagi could finish speaking, Tina said seriously, "Hmm, it seems that Tina likes Shopkeeper Shiraha."

"Huh?! Tina, you just admit it like that?!"

"What's the big deal? I'm not young anymore, and Shopkeeper Baiyu is handsome, considerate, so capable, and gentle. He has everything you could want. That world is also amazing. Shopkeeper Baiyu really dotes on his wife. It's perfectly reasonable for Tina to like Shopkeeper Baiyu. Besides, Tina was blown away by his handsomeness when he killed the Celestial Dragon. He was so cool."

"Besides... I don't plan to stay single forever. I just don't like those kinds of people. There are people I like, and I even think I should pursue them. If I don't work hard, I'm really planning to stay single and grow old alone. That would be too miserable. Getting married isn't something to be ashamed of, is it?"

Seeing Tina speak so calmly, Momousagi suddenly didn't know what to say. She felt like she had been lectured, and surprisingly, she found it quite reasonable. Most importantly... she was actually looking forward to what it would be like to be in a relationship.

"I...."

"Gion-nee! If you've also considered staying at the shop for a while this time, we can collaborate!"

"Um...right, is Perona coming today too?"

"Gion-nee, you really aren't good at changing the subject..."

Chapter 240 The reporter looking for Shiraha, Echizen Nanako's shyness (Please subscribe~)

"Hmph! If you two aren't going, I'll go myself! I'm moving there for a few days! One's expressionless, the other's like a monkey! They're infuriating! They're both crazy!"

Perona was packing her change of clothes while muttering to herself. She had planned to go to the store for a few days, but neither Hawkeye nor Zoro went.

What impressed her most was that Hawkeye had been on a roll ever since he came back that day, practicing swordsmanship every single day, either practicing or on his way to practice. And he actually made himself a wooden sword.

Zoro, on the other hand, was sparring even more frantically. In Hawkeye's words, "You haven't even reached the level of using a soft sword or a heavy sword yet; you're still at the first level." This gave Zoro a real sense of motivation, and then... he went completely mad.

"I'm so angry! I'm so angry! I don't care if you two starve to death! You two are crazy!"

Perona finally managed to anger herself so much that she almost jumped up. In the end, she just lay flat on the bed, whether from a headache or simply because there was nothing to do on the island and she was so bored that all she did was sleep and wander around.

Meanwhile, in the other shop, Fujiwara Toyomi and Echizen Nanako's dishes were already prepared. The simple and ordinary dishes made the two of them very hungry. However, what surprised Lucifer and the others was that Echizen Nanako's appetite was really quite large.

She could even be compared to Cerberus and the others. Cerberus is a pure carnivore with a huge appetite, and Kobayashi Rindou and Ichihara Yuuko are also foodies who claim to be gourmets. This Echizen Nanako looks very gentle and virtuous, and has a very slender figure, yet she has such a large appetite.

"Wow, Nanako, you look so thin, how come you have such a good appetite?"

"Nanako is like this. She has always been a very gentle person, but she always has a great appetite and never gains weight, which is really amazing."

"I feel fine... Manager Shiraha's cooking is so delicious, I really don't know how he developed such culinary skills."

"It just happens to suit their taste."

"Honey! You said that again! I'm so fed up with you. But seriously, that kid seems so arrogant, and that older man seems so unreliable. Why is Nanako so gentle in this environment? I feel like it should be someone with a more assertive personality like Houki..."

Nanako Echizen paused for a moment, then said, "Is that so? But Ryoma and Uncle are quite interesting, and I usually help my aunt with housework at home. My aunt has a very gentle personality, but I heard that she used to be a very energetic girl..."

Bai Yu nodded and said, "I've heard about this. The two met abroad, and their personalities haven't changed in a sense. It's just that Mrs. Echizen hasn't had many opportunities to express her passion."

"That's true. After all, Auntie hasn't played tennis for many years. She usually does housework, so she's probably channeled her former energetic side into her daily life."

Lucifer chuckled and said, "It's a pity you don't plan to retire, honey. I guess the housewife at home will always be a stay-at-home bum."

"Pfft..." xn

Even Echizen Nanako covered her mouth and chuckled. During their meal, she and Lucifer chatted with them quite a bit and quickly became familiar with each other. They also learned about their families. If we're talking about salted fish, Lucifer and her sisters could put together a whole fish feast.

"You two shouldn't stay in the shop all the time. It's not safe for a girl to go home at night, especially Nanako. Aren't you going home? Your home isn't close either."

"Actually, it's fine. My aunt just messaged me to ask when I was coming home, and I told her I was having dinner at your shop, Manager Baiyu. My aunt said she would have Longma pick me up, but then she said my uncle would be picking me up. So it's okay. Fengshi, I'll drop you off in a bit."

"it is good!"

"Fengshi, isn't your family coming to pick you up?"

Fujiwara Toyomi tilted her head and said, "No, because I feel like my parents are controlling me when I go home, which is a real headache. So I usually live at school. Renting a house would feel weird, and I might get annoyed. So it's more convenient to live at school."

"That's true. By the way, Nanako, do you play tennis?"

Nanako Echizen shook her head and said, "I can only catch the ball. I can't really play tennis. Actually, I'm not very good at sports."

"Is that so? That's really strange. Both of you except you play tennis, and you both seem to be quite good at it."

"Indeed, but I still prefer reading to exercising."

"Yes, indeed..."

Before Lucifer could finish speaking, the shop door was pushed open, and Echizen Nanjiro walked in. He smiled upon seeing Echizen Nanako, who politely greeted him as "Uncle." Fujiwara Toyomi and Echizen Nanako both stood up, knowing it was time to leave...

"Hey, Bai Yu, you should have some time now, right?"

"Hmm? Yes, I do, but what do you want to do with it?"

"I have something to tell you."

Bai Yu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and followed Echizen Nanjiro out. Fujiwara Chika and Echizen Nanako also said goodbye to Lucifer and the others and followed. Echizen Nanjiro walked along the dimly lit street with his hands tucked into his sleeves, laughing as he said, "Yo! Bai Yu, how was it?"

"what?"

Echizen Nanjiro glanced at Echizen Nanako, who was still chatting and laughing with Fujiwara Toyomi, and smiled, saying, "Our Nanako, isn't she beautiful, gentle, and very sensible?"

"Um...that's true."

"Hey... Of course, such a great girl is a rare find. Why don't you consider it?"

Seeing Echizen Nanjiro's mischievous grin, Echizen Nanako blinked before blushing and saying, "Uncle! What are you saying!"

Echizen Nanjiro chuckled a few times without saying anything, then said with a hint of amusement, "I forgot to tell you before, that reporter from that tennis monthly magazine... I think his name is Inoue."

"Mr. Inoue? I remember him. What's wrong?"

"Inoue said he wanted to find an opportunity to talk to you. That's what the old lady told me when she called me last night while we were having dinner. But Ryoma and the others didn't say where your shop is. Since Nanako is here, I thought I'd let you know. Just let me know if you want to see it or not."

"Well... having more friends is never a bad thing. They can come over anytime. Ah... if you're coming on Wednesday evening, you should come a little earlier, around 5 or 7."

"Okay, I'll talk to that old woman. By the way, how about my Nanako? Would you consider her?"

Before Echizen Nanjiro could finish speaking, he heard Echizen Nanako shout, her face flushed, "Uncle! You're joking with me again! I'm going to tell Auntie! Manager Shiraha! We're leaving now! Toyomi and I will come to visit often."

"Hey! Nanako, don't pull me! And tell Rinko, Rinko said the same thing."

"Uncle! You'd better hurry up and go!"

Looking at Echizen Nanako, who was pulling Echizen Nanjiro along with a flushed face and walking quickly forward, and Fujiwara Toyomi, who was jogging along and not forgetting to turn around and wave to her.

Bai Yu smiled helplessly and said, "What an interesting family..."

After seeing Fujiwara Toyomi off, Echizen Nanjiro chuckled and said, "Nanako, your friend seems quite determined."
