People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Justice thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I vaguely heard Zdada scream. To be honest, I don't think Zdada has ever screamed like that before. It must have been a really bad scream..."

Marina paused for a moment, rubbed her white hair, and after thinking for a long time, said softly, "Impossible, Zdrada is not so easy to conquer."

Yuko Ichihara waved her hand and said, "This problem is very simple, just like you didn't expect Shiraha to be able to resolve the trial so easily at the beginning."

Marina thought for a moment and said, "Hmm, that makes sense, but what are we supposed to do now? Just sit here like an idiot? I doubt there are many people who would do something like that!"

Lucifer sighed and said softly, "I thought it would be quick if it was just Medici and Zdrada, but now there's a trial as well. I personally think we can go out for dinner now."

Yuko Ichihara nodded and said, "That's a good idea. What do you want to eat?"

"I don't know, but since it's just Marina and the few of us, how about we go for hot pot? Marina, what do you think?"

Marina thought for a moment and said, "Hot pot?"

"Yes, forget about drinking vodka at a hot pot restaurant, but beer is fine. After all, drinking vodka with hot pot just feels weird."

Marina nodded and said, "That sounds good, but... is there anything to eat right now? I'm starving, I haven't eaten anything at all."

Yuuko Ichihara asked in confusion, "Don't you guys eat when you're out arresting people?"

"I don't know if they ate or not, but I do know I didn't eat. However, I drank a case of vodka. Does that count as eating?"

Gurefia paused for a moment and said, "Drank a case of vodka on an empty stomach... Is vodka sold by the case?"

"I don't know, but that's roughly the idea. Is there anything to eat?"

Lucifer cleared his throat and said, "Marina, before we begin, there's something I need to tell you."

"what?"

"Marina, it would be best if you stayed, but if you stay, you'll have to sign a contract with Bai Yu, either a master-servant contract or something like that. You should know very well who the master is, right?"

Marina paused for a moment, then fell silent before finally saying softly, "All of you are..."

Justice waved his hand and said, "Everyone except me has signed a contract with Bai Yu. If you're asking why I didn't sign one... do you think I would do anything dangerous?"

Marina rubbed her hair and said, "Okay, okay, since he's the boss's man anyway, let's just treat it as another form of joining the company... So now... Boss, is there anything else you want to say?"

Lucifer nodded and said, "Very good, then there's no problem. Marina, you really are very reliable. Here are two choices for you."

"What choice? All I want right now is to find something to eat!"

"Don't rush, this is what I'm talking about. My first option is for me to teach you how to use the refrigerator, and my second option is that I'm in a good mood, so I'm planning to bake some pancakes. Want to try some?"

Marina and the others were stunned and stared at Lucifer in disbelief. This arrogant, henpecked queen could actually cook? And she could even make desserts?!

Lucifer saw through their thoughts and said arrogantly, "Of course! You weren't here back then! It was just me and Cerberus in the shop!"

Gurefia asked in confusion, "Lucifer, did you learn this from Bai Yu?"

"Yes! And it was a great success! But let me make it clear first, I can only make desserts."

Marina thought for a moment and said, "Suddenly something feels off. Boss... no... boss, you actually learned to make desserts with your lover and seem to be quite successful. To be honest, I'm quite interested, but I'm more interested in refrigerators because I don't want to wait any longer, and I don't think there's anything to learn about refrigerators..."

A few minutes later...

Marina, while eating a sandwich and sipping juice, said, "Boss, to be honest, you should have told me about this refrigerator sooner. If only this refrigerator were a man! I think I'm in love..."

Justice laughed and said, "The refrigerator can't fall in love with you, but you can fall in love with the owner of the refrigerator."

"Hmm? Lord Baiyu? Never mind, I'm not really interested in dating. By the way, boss, where are we going later?"

"Let's eat, then go to WGO. By the way, Justice, you seem to be very busy?"

"That's right... because I have to meet up with Mengmeng. I don't know what Mengmeng is up to. She's such a headache."

Marina asked in confusion, "Hmm? Lord Justice, who is Mengmeng? Your daughter?"

Justice blushed slightly, a rare occurrence for him, and said with a smile, "No, no, no, I don't have a daughter, although that girl looks a lot like me... Lucy, when are you going to set off? Isn't it a bit early now?"

"So I'm going to make a pancake. Who wants it? Let me make this clear: you can't just eat my food whenever you want. Seize the opportunity!"

Marina mumbled, "Boss, if you want to make more, just make them all. Why are you asking?"

"Marina, you don't know, this is Lucy's tsundere."

"I'm not being arrogant!"

Chapter Twenty-Three: The Pitiful Trial, Lucifer Unleashing His Magic (Please Subscribe~)

Everyone now knew about Lucifer's cooking skills. They had thought it would be terrible, but it turned out to be surprisingly delicious. In fact, his chocolate crepes were even better than Sachi's. Lucifer had a firm grasp on the aspect of understanding.

"Lucy, your cooking skills really surprised me. I thought you were going to make me a plate of something black and murky."

Justice ate the chocolate crepes made by Lucifer while complaining about Lucifer and eating with a surprised look on his face. Marina also ate while saying, "Boss, you are surprisingly virtuous."

Upon hearing this, Lucifer couldn't help but smile. If his tail were outside right now, it would probably be wagging. Lucifer loves hearing things like this.

After trying it for a while, Gurefia asked in confusion, "Lucifer, why haven't you been here very long? How did you develop such culinary skills? Is it because skill determines talent?"

Lucifer thought for a moment and said, "No, talent and comprehension only allow me to quickly know what to do. As for this taste, it should be due to what Bai Yu said to me."

Zhengyi smiled and said, "What did Bai Yu say to you? I'm really curious about what our man said."

Lucifer thought for a moment and said, "It roughly means... your mood while cooking directly determines..."

"Taste? Hey! That's fantastical? Really?"

Justice immediately voiced his criticism, and Marina and Gurefia nodded in agreement. Lucifer waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, you're overthinking it. Bai Yu also said that cooking is cooking and eating is just eating. Why make it so fantastical?"

"What Bai Yu means is that the mood when making a dish directly determines how much effort you put into it, and that's what makes it taste better."

Gurefia and the others nodded. Gurefia thought for a moment and said, "Mood? What do you mean?"

Lucifer thought for a moment and said, "Just like many mothers' cooking isn't very tasty, but it's a delicious meal that children cherish. When mothers cook for their children, they put a lot of effort into it. The more they look forward to it, the happier they are, and the more carefully they prepare it, the fewer mistakes they will make, and the better it will taste."

Gurefia thought for a moment and nodded. Lucifer said casually, "Actually, Gurefia, you can think about what kind of ideas you had when you made the dish."

"I...I'm not quite sure...I just feel that cooking is much more fun than when I was learning to cook before."

"That's good then. Take your time learning. You seem to really enjoy cooking. By the way, I suddenly had an idea. Zhengyi, do you think these nuts would taste even better if they were salt-roasted?"

Justice raised an eyebrow and said, "Huh? What is that? Salt-roasted nuts? Seriously? They're salty!"

“I know, but roasted nuts smell really good, and it seems like adding a little salt to sweet things makes them even sweeter? Is that true? I’ll give it a try. I’ll try it later. Gurefia, remember this for me. Justice is too unreliable.”

"it is good."

"Huh? I just realized, where's Yuuko? Where did she go?"

"She said she was going to find a pair of shoes...and here she is..."

As they were talking, they saw Yuko Ichihara running down the street with her face flushed and her shoes on. Lucifer nodded and said, "As expected of you, you can still run so fast even in high heels."

"That is!"

"Hey! Yuuko, why are you blushing?"

Upon hearing Zhengyi's words, Ichihara Yuko coughed lightly, picked up her chocolate crepe, and said with some surprise, "Wow! Lucy, you're more amazing than I thought."

"Of course! Wait... you didn't go peeping, did you...?"

"Pfft...cough cough cough!"

Lucifer glanced at it before saying irritably, "You really are... What's so curious about this! I'm speechless. You're lucky you weren't caught by Medici... What did you see?"

"Um... I saw that the judge seemed about to cry..."

Zhengyi paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "That girl must be touched."

"Huh?" x4

Yuuko Ichihara said doubtfully, "Moved? I think she's too scared to move..."

"Aren't you moved? She'd been single for so many years, and then the organization just sent her a husband... uh... a future husband. Aren't you moved? That girl is very sentimental, that's for sure." (Judgment: If only I could beat you...)

Lucifer rolled his eyes and said, "You're just taking advantage of the Judgment because she's a naive girl! She'll definitely fight you to the death today! Don't forget, she can use magic! Wait...wait..."

"What's wrong?" x4

Lucifer laughed and said, "Before, I was afraid that Zdrada and the others could sense where I was. Now that they've all come up and been dealt with, it means... I can use magic now! That's great!"

Glefia then felt a suffocating magical power coming from her. Lucifer grinned, and when he saw that Marina, Justice, and Yuuko Ichihara were all unharmed, his eyes twitched.

"Finally, I can release my magic! I was so suffocated..."

Lucifer was happily munching on his chocolate pancake when something suddenly occurred to him. After a moment of surprise, he said with a puzzled look, "Why do I feel like I've forgotten someone? I shouldn't be able to tell who Azazel is..."

Lucifer felt like she had forgotten someone, but she couldn't quite place them. After thinking for a long time, she said softly, "Never mind, I don't want to think about it anymore. It's almost time to leave. Speaking of which, where's Sonoko? Wasn't she supposed to come?"

"Huh? You didn't know? Sonoko went straight to WGO."

"Huh? This girl is really something... Alright, let's set off then."

Lucifer and the others didn't consider the trial or what Zdrada was going through at all, and left without any sense of loyalty. They didn't want to know what they had gone through, so they just considered it touching.

Chapter Twenty-Four: Eri's Surprise – What a Small World! (Please Subscribe!)

Just as Lucifer and the others left, Ran Mouri finally arrived at Eri Kisaki's residence. Perhaps Eri Kisaki was too tired, because Ran knocked on the door for quite a while before Eri Kisaki opened it.

"Xiao Lan, you're here."

Ran Mouri nodded, looking at Eri Kisaki, who was still in her pajamas, and asked in confusion, "Mom, are you still asleep?"

"No, I woke up at seven, but I fell asleep again after looking at my phone for a while. Come on in."

Ran Mouri nodded and walked in before sighing and saying, "Mom, you're still so clean. Even after you've been away on a business trip for so long, the house is still so clean."

"I tidied it up when I got back yesterday, since I was waiting for takeout anyway."

Ran Mouri paused for a moment before saying with a dissatisfied look, "Mom, why are you eating takeout again? What did you eat?"

"Sushi."

"That's good, Mom. Why are you eating takeout again?"

Eri sighed and said, "When I got back yesterday, I found that there were no vegetables left, only yogurt and tomatoes. I didn't really want to go out to buy groceries, so I ordered takeout."

Ran sighed and said, "Mom, you should have said you were out of food earlier! Even if you had ordered takeout, I could have given you Bai Yu's contact information. Honestly!"

"Brother Baiyu? Is Xiaolan your friend? A third-grader? You should be careful about who you befriend."

Ran Mouri sighed and said, "Mom, you're here again. Don't worry, Bai Yu is a very nice guy!"

Eri Kisaki paused for a moment, then seemed to realize something. She felt like she had heard the name Shiroha somewhere before, but she was exhausted yesterday and had a deep sleep, so it would be strange if she could remember it. She couldn't even remember what the sushi she ate yesterday tasted like.

Fei Ying thought for a moment but still couldn't figure it out, so she shook her head and said, "Is he a third-year student?"

"No, Brother Baiyu owns a restaurant, Mom! The restaurant I'm taking you to today is Brother Baiyu's!"

"Huh? Is that so? For Ran to praise my cooking so much, it must be really amazing..."

Ran Mouri sighed and said, "Shiraha-nii is really good at cooking, no... not just cooking, Shiraha-nii is also very good at fighting, tennis, basketball and other sports. Recently, Sonoko told me that Shiraha-nii is also very good at musical instruments!"

Eri Kisaki was also taken aback for a moment and said with some surprise, "That's really impressive. You call me 'brother,' so you can't be that old, right?"

"Yeah, Shiraha looks like a college student, but he already owns a restaurant in Tokyo."

"He's really young and promising. Xiaolan, how did you meet him?"

Ran Mouri said with a smile, "Mom, you won't believe it, but Shiraha-nii was Sonoko's boyfriend... no, it seems like he's now her fiancé."

Eri Kisaki paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "That girl can find a boyfriend like that? Their personalities must be very compatible."

Ran Mouri thought about it seriously for a moment and said, "I feel like Sonoko hit the jackpot because their personalities are completely different. Although Shiraha-nii also likes to play around, he prefers quiet most of the time, loves reading, doesn't have any bad habits, and is very gentle and considerate!"

Eri Kisaki said with a smile, "Looking at it this way, Sonoko really hit the jackpot. And considering Sonoko's infatuated personality, Manager Shiraha must be quite handsome too."

"Yeah, he's tall and handsome, even more handsome than celebrities."

"Where did this girl find such a high-quality man? But a man like that probably doesn't lack girlfriends."

"That's right, Bai Yu has many girlfriends. By the way... Mom, let me tell you, Bai Yu's girlfriends are not only rare beauties, but they're also incredibly capable..."

Eri Kisaki paused for a moment and said, "I'm quite interested in that. Tell me about it."

"As far as I know, there are... the boss of the Royal Sakura Group, Shion Souin; the student council president of Hyakkaou Private School, who is also the head of the Hyakki clan, Kirari Momobami; three first-class executive officers and one special second-class executive officer from WGO; Rindou Kobayashi, the second seat of the Elite Ten; and many other people from various professions, including scientists and teachers."

Eri Kisaki was also stunned and said in disbelief, "Just how outstanding must this man be to make these women willing to share one lover! Thank goodness..."
