People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Reimu and Marisa both twitched at the corners of their mouths, clearly thinking of something they didn't want to remember. Lucifer sighed and said, "Can't you guys control the talents in your Gensokyo?"

"Uh..."

"It's beyond our control."

Bai Yu frowned as he watched the group chatting. Yagokoro Eirin asked with some concern, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Or is something wrong?"

"No... I just seem to have forgotten something. You guys eat first, it's nothing serious."

"Oh...."

Bai Yu was thinking quietly, crossing his legs, placing his hands on his knees with his fingers interlaced, his head slightly lowered, and tapping lightly with his right index finger in a rhythmic manner. He leaned back in the chair in a slightly slumped posture, exuding an indescribable laziness and tranquility.

Yukari Yakumo and the others watched silently, suddenly feeling a bit hungry. It was no joke that such a handsome man was pleasing to the eye. However, they also felt a little smug, thinking that such a handsome man was theirs.

After a long silence, Bai Yu finally smiled slightly and said gently, "It's her..."

Chapter 250 Energetic Girl Kitagawa Kaimu, Goodnight and Sweet Dreams (Please Subscribe~)

Bai Yu's actions startled Lucifer and the others. Ichihara Yuko leaned over and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Did you forget something?"

Bai Yu shook his head and said, "It's nothing serious. Someone added me as a friend around noon, but I was called away by Manager Kawamura to chat before I could even check it, so I didn't notice it."

"Manager Kawamura... Oh! You're the owner of that sushi restaurant. I thought it was something serious. But who was that person who added you?"

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure. I only saw a female and then I didn't see anything else, so I don't know who she is."

"Woman?"

Clearly, this woman is someone that Yagokoro Eirin and the others are very concerned about. They wonder if she's some little vixen from outside trying to seduce their man. If she's a good person, fine, but if she has any bad intentions, they'll beat her to death.

Bai Yu took out his phone and glanced at it. Sure enough, it was a friend request from an unknown number. After looking at it for a couple of seconds, Bai Yu smiled and shook his head, saying, "Oh, it's her..."

"Who?!"

Good grief, this is someone we know? Bai Yu was stunned for a moment before saying helplessly, "It's that cosplaying girl from the other day. Asuna and the others must have given her my contact information."

Hearing this, Lucifer and the others nodded. Bai Yu glanced at the friend request and chuckled, saying, "A friend request that's like a long essay... that's really something..."

Despite saying that, Bai Yu didn't seem to care at all. After realizing who it was, Bai Yu clicked "agree" and replied with a message: "Sorry, I was busy today and didn't see the message."

After sending the message, there was no reply from the other end of the phone. Bai Yu didn't pay any attention to it, assuming that the person had already taken a shower and gone to bed by now.

Seeing Bai Yu put down his phone, Kobayashi Rindou asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, he just didn't reply to messages. He's probably asleep. Gentian, don't you still have experiments to do? Go back and wash up and go to sleep after you finish eating."

"Oh!"

On the other side, Kitagawa Kaimu was indeed not asleep; she was taking a shower, but she was still concerned about whether Shiraha had taken the time to see her friend request.

"Does it mean that only people who have been to the store can be added as friends?"

"No, that can't be... Hmm... I don't know..."

When Kitagawa Kaimu came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, her hair was tied up and she was wrapped in a towel. Taking a shower had already improved her mood, not to mention that she was in a good mood to begin with.

"Hmm... let's see if there are any events going on recently."

Just as Kitagawa Kaimu was about to check her phone for any events, she saw an unread message and paused for a moment after glancing at it.

Kitagawa Kaimu even doubted if she had seen it wrong. Shiraha had actually accepted her friend request, which made her extremely excited.

"Yeah! I knew Manager Shiraha wouldn't be that kind of person! Is it because he's too busy?"

"Hai Meng, you're really quite dense, spending the whole day thinking nonsense... Reply to the message! Reply to the message!"

After a brief moment of joy, Kitagawa Kaimu immediately picked up her phone to reply to the message. She wrote one sentence, but it didn't feel right. She wrote another, but it still didn't feel right. She kept writing and deleting, deleting and writing, agonizing over it for twenty minutes.

"Hey! Hai Meng! You're such an idiot! What are you worrying about? Just write whatever you want to say!"

"No, no, that would make it seem like I'm throwing a tantrum at Shop Manager Bai Yu!"

"No, no, Manager Baiyu is already very busy, it's perfectly normal that he didn't see the message. Writing it like this is just being unreasonable!"

"No, no, no, that would make me just like those girls outside with impure thoughts!"

"Ugh! This is so annoying! How am I supposed to write this...?"

After a long while, Kitagawa Kaimu sighed and quietly wrote: "It's okay, it was a bit presumptuous of me to suddenly add you as a friend, Shiraha-sensei."

"Did Kyoko and the others recommend you to their friend list?"

"Yes, it's Yuuki-senpai and the others. We talked a lot about things at the shop at noon."

"Now you should believe that I'm not a bad person, right?"

When Kitagawa Kaimu saw the message, she was stunned for a moment before blushing and quickly sending a message saying, "No, no, actually, I believed you as soon as you mentioned Yuuki-senpai's name, Shiraha-sensei!"

"Just kidding. A girl should be careful when she's out alone, especially if she's sick. It's normal to be more vigilant."

When Kitagawa Kaimu saw the message, she breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "Very understanding..."

Before Kitagawa Kaimu could even send a message, she saw that Shiraha had sent another message: "You mean senior? Are you their junior?"

"Yes, I'm very close to Yuuki-senpai and the others."

"Hmm, no wonder you reacted so strongly when you heard their names."

"Yes, yes, yes! By the way! My name is Kitagawa Kaimu! Nice to meet you, Manager Shiraha!"

After glancing at the shop, Bai Yu nodded and replied with "Nice to meet you." Bai Yu and Kitagawa Kaimu were having a pleasant chat.

Perhaps because of the recommendation from Yuuki Asuna and the others, Kitagawa Kaimu wasn't too cautious. Coupled with her lively personality and Shiraha's gentle nature, the last bit of her restraint quickly disappeared.

Basically, it was Kitagawa Kaimu who started the conversation, either about anime or food, and Shiraha was very cooperative. Before we knew it, it was past eleven o'clock.

Seeing that Kitagawa Kaimu was still talking nonstop, Bai Yu typed a message with a bit of helplessness: "You have school tomorrow, so go get some rest, or you won't be able to concentrate in class."

Just as Kitagawa Kaimu was about to say it was still early, she saw another message from Shiraha: "Girls should take better care of themselves. Staying up late is bad for your health and your face, so it's better to rest early."

"Girls should treat themselves better... He really is a very considerate man..."

Kitagawa Kaimu hadn't felt this kind of care in a long time, and her heart warmed. She silently typed, "I understand, goodnight, Manager Shiraha. I'll come to the store when I have time! Remember the friend's price!"

"I remember, I won't forget, you're always welcome."

Good night, sweet dreams...

Chapter 251 Kitagawa Kaimu, who stayed up all night, wants to drink hot spring water (Please subscribe~)

Kitagawa Kaimu looked at her phone, feeling a warm feeling in her heart for some reason. After a long while, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, changed into her pajamas, dried her hair, and returned to her room.

I originally wanted to bring my computer to continue watching anime, but I remembered what Bai Yu said, so I didn't. Lying in bed, Kitagawa Kaimu tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

After a long while, she turned on the desk lamp, turned to the side, and silently looked at her chat history with Bai Yu on her phone. As she looked, Kitagawa Kaimu realized that it seemed to be her talking the whole time, with Bai Yu just going along with it.

Thinking of this, Kitagawa Kaimu couldn't help but smile. Being considerate is never outdated, especially for a girl like Kitagawa Kaimu.

Goodnight...sweet dreams...

Kitagawa Kaimu breathed a sigh of relief when she reached the end and said, "How could I possibly sleep... Oh right! I should check out Shiraha's updates! It'll be a good opportunity to see what Shiraha is like in real life!"

Thinking this way, Kitagawa Kaimu really did watch it. Kitagawa Kaimu was originally a very optimistic and energetic girl, and when she saw Shiraha's update, Kitagawa Kaimu also showed a lot of emotion.

Sometimes she would exclaim in surprise, sometimes she would laugh uncontrollably, and sometimes she would exclaim that she had learned something. Thanks to Shiraha, Kitagawa Kaimu successfully got many shops and products to buy.

For example, there's that beauty store, or the beauty salon I recommended before, both of which are quite affordable. There are also some very simple recipes and easy ways to prepare delicious food.

Shiraha's updates are numerous, and Kitagawa Kaimu only read a small portion of them. This is mainly because she frequently exits to check the map location and visitor flow, and the results show that it is indeed a niche market, which makes Kitagawa Kaimu even more interested.

"Ah...it's time to sleep too...."

"Huh? Huh?! How is it already 3 a.m.! Go to sleep!"

Kitagawa Kaimu simply tosses her phone aside to charge and falls asleep immediately. With a good appetite and high-quality sleep, this is one of Kitagawa Kaimu's little secrets to being full of energy every day.

Just as Kitagawa Kaimu fell asleep, Shiraha, Lucifer, and Ichihara Yuuko were watching a documentary. Yes, a documentary.

Kobayashi Rindou had already been sent back to sleep by Lucifer. As a guinea pig, she should be prepared to be one. Kobayashi Rindou was a night owl and originally wanted to come over and take a look, but Yakumo Yukari made Kobayashi Rindou choose between throwing Rindou into the gap to teleport to the room or having Cheng carry her up.

The word "resist" prompted Kobayashi Rindou to decisively run upstairs by herself. Even if Yakumo Cheng is young, she is still a youkai. Kobayashi Rindou is only a few dozen kilograms, so carrying her would be too easy. However, that would be too embarrassing!

Orange is too young; it's unrealistic for her to actually carry Kobayashi Rindou on her back. So, the only option is to lift her up and walk around—yes, lift her up and walk around...

It was embarrassing to even think about. As for the gap, she had never seen it before and thought it was quite interesting. However, the moment Yakumo Yukari opened the gap, she saw eyes that seemed to be staring at her, and she immediately chickened out.

She, who usually thinks about how to deep-fry or braise those little ghosts while watching horror movies, actually cowered at these eyes. That's right, any girl would feel panicked being stared at by a bunch of unknown beings in a pitch-black space.

The documentaries Bai Yu and the others were watching were the kind of documentaries about traveling around the world; they were looking at travel tips and information about various local features.

"Oh! White Feather! White Feather!"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"You can actually drink hot spring water?! And it can even beautify your skin?! No way! I'm going to drink from every single pool!"

Seeing Yuko Ichihara's surprised expression, Bai Yu smiled and shook his head, saying gently, "I don't know if it's true that it's good for beauty and health, but you'll probably get a headache if you drink the whole thing."

"Huh?! Why?"

Eirin Yagokoro asked with some doubt, "Isn't it normal for the locals to drink it?"

Bai Yu said gently, "You said yourself that they are locals. They are used to drinking hot spring water. They only need a cup to drink water for free, so they will definitely drink it often and naturally get used to it."

"But won't they get headaches?"

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Let me put it this way, imagine that Yonglin, one day you lose your memory, like a newborn baby, unfamiliar with everything, but you happen to be in a very, very, very desolate place."

"Oh...and then?"

"Then you suddenly get hungry, and at that moment a villager brings you a dry, chewy flatbread that's like cowhide, and tells you it's the best food in the world, and the food that everyone eats."

Eirin Yagokoro paused for a moment before realizing what was happening and said, "I see. They've always thought this was normal water and that it tasted good, so they didn't have such a strong reaction, right?"

"Yes, the hot spring water tastes rather strange, and it's quite hot. It comes from an iron tap, so there might be some rust or something. While it's not particularly harmful, the strange taste combined with a hint of iron, plus the fact that it's hot water, makes the taste even stronger. It's normal for people who haven't tried it before to get a headache."

Eirin Yagokoro and the others nodded in understanding. Lucifer asked in confusion, "Eh? How did you know?"

“I passed through that city and saw hot spring water while rushing to catch a flight, so I tried it, but I regretted it a little.”

Yukari Yakumo asked in confusion, "Huh? Where's the cup?"

"I didn't take the cup with me because I had nowhere to put it. It would feel strange to carry a cup around, so I left it by the pond. I guess a homeless person will take it."

The group nodded in agreement. Yuko Ichihara thought for a moment and said, "No matter what, I still want to give it a try. Maybe it really can beautify the skin. I've read that hot springs can beautify the skin."

Yukari Yakumo rolled her eyes and said, "That's soaking! Not drinking!"

"Using it topically or internally won't work for me! Maybe it'll be more effective! Speaking of which... I've never been to a hot spring here before..."

"Huh? I've never been to a hot spring before!"

"What do you have to be proud of...?"

Chapter 252 The Women's Trip, and the Strange Hoshiguma Yuugi (Please Subscribe~)

Lucifer's inexplicable pride surprised Yagokoro Eirin and the others. Goodness, what's there to be proud of? Lucifer was also taken aback before clearing his throat and saying, "No, I just wanted to give it a try."

"Oh! Eh? There must be hot springs at the place we're traveling to this time."

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Yes, there are, but just soaking in hot springs would be a bit boring."

"So?"

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "I'll just say it like this..."

"Hmm!" xn

Lucifer and the others looked on with anticipation. They hadn't been to as many places as Bai Yu, and compared to Bai Yu, their lives were quite impoverished.

Bai Yu said gently, "When you get off the plane, you'll see small towns with houses that look like works of art, and the melting snow and ice will give the grass and cliffs a fresh scent."

"The waves lapped against the beach, which was covered with stones that had been washed over for countless years, and various small seashells. The sea shimmered in the sunset, and cattle and sheep strolled leisurely on the grassland. Looking at the glacial lagoon, every breath was exceptionally clean and fresh."

"As night falls, in the bustling town, listening to the locals' songs, walking along the lively streets, you'll find local charm everywhere. Every shop offers delicious food that interests you. After a satisfying meal, you can take advantage of the night to walk into the mountains."
