Tuk tuk tuk! The knock on the door was not urgent, but sounded very calm and rhythmic. It was not a young man's knocking. However, regardless of whether he belonged to a young man or not, Li Qing didn't have much thought to open it. The business hours of Qingli Restaurant are clearly written on the outside, and now they are all closed, so people who don't have enough eyesight come over and knock on the door blindly. He knitting. Li Qing was about to ignore it and continue to go upstairs. "Cough cough!" Outside the restaurant door, a faint cough sounded. Immediately afterwards, an old but very powerful voice came: "Brother Li Qing, can we have a brief chat? Old man Nakiri Zuoxian gatekeeper. Li Qing narrowed her eyes, but smiled instead.
Nakiri Zuoxian Gatekeeper? The Demon King of Food, Supreme Commander of Tōtsuki? He didn't intend to open the door, but he stopped going upstairs, walked over, and said through the door: "Mr. Nakiri, this store is closed. If you have anything to say, please talk to me tomorrow." Nakiri, the Zuoxian gatekeeper, seemed to have not expected that Li Qing would not open the door even after he had declared his name. He is the king of food, well-known in the culinary circle of the whole world, but he was treated like this by a junior today? "...It's okay." After a long time, Nakiri Zuoxian gatekeeper came to his senses and coughed lightly, "Since you don't want to open the door, then talk through the door. "Please tell me." Li Qing smiled. 520 "Three months ago, at the opening ceremony, you asked the old man to withdraw from school. I am deeply sorry for this. At that time, I didn't ask carefully what the reason was, which caused the dissatisfaction of a genius like you." "In any case, the old man wants to express his apologies to you here." Nakiri Zuoxian gatekeeper said. Li Qing smiled, thinking to himself, he is not dissatisfied with Tōtsuki, but it's really not, it's nonsense, it's just that there are requirements for system activation, if you don't log out, you can't activate it. However, Nakiri Zuoxian Gatekeeper has a style of continuously climbing to the top for the Jade Age, and even willing to apologize to a junior like him. Li Qing had to admit that this old man had a certain charisma. "It's okay." Li Qing said. "Then, little brother Li Qing, can you go back to Tōtsuki again? As long as you agree, you can apply for admission tomorrow, and I will directly arrange the best teacher, the best course, and the best residence for you!" "Of course, you might think, Tōtsuki, I've even defeated the Elite Ten, so where else can I learn? What can I learn?" "If you really think so, little brother Li Qing, I can only say that you are wrong! Tōtsuki Culinary Academy has a long history and has been developed for so many years. Imagine." "As for the really good chefs, besides the Elite Ten, there are a lot of them. After entering Tōtsuki, I will introduce you, how about you can also compete with them?" Nakiri Zuoxian gatekeeper asked with a smile. Such a condition is already sincere enough, and it is even more sincere that these words come from the mouth of the Tōtsuki commander himself.
In this way, no one should refuse... "Sorry, I can't agree." Li broke the smile and fantasy on the face of Nakiri Zuoxian gatekeeper. "Why?!" Nakiri Zuoxian doorman was obviously taken aback, some couldn't understand. "Mr. Nakiri, don't get me wrong. I'm not dissatisfied with Tōtsuki, nor you, or someone in Tōtsuki. It's just pure, and my way of cooking lies in this." "In a competitive place, open a small restaurant and use exquisite cuisine to constantly conquer every diner who comes to challenge or come here for fame." "For me, this is the best way to cook. As for enrolling in Tōtsuki, it doesn't match my state of mind at all. A twisted melon is not sweet. If I force it, it may run counter to it. Are you right? ?" Li Qing talks nonsense, and says whatever comes to mind, summed up in six words: Fudge! Fudge hard! Nakiri Zuoxian gatekeeper was silent again for a long time, and then sighed faintly: "Since this is the case, the old man will not force you anymore, but!!" The old voice suddenly became cold and severe. Nakiri Zuoxian gatekeeper snorted coldly: "Opening a restaurant at the gate of Tōtsuki, my holy place of cooking, you kid has eaten the heart of a leopard! Don't think that you can continue to be rampant just by defeating a few students!" Li Qing raised her eyebrows, is this, from embarrassment to anger? Nakiri Zuoxian Gatekeeper continued to snort: "As I said just now, there are countless top dishes in my Tōtsuki! Elite Ten is just one of them, not to mention that you only defeated a few people and set up Elite Ten, even if you will Elite Ten defeated them all...... This year's end-of-term exam, unfortunately, I will tell you that there will be a few Tōtsuki graduates returning. At that time, I will specially issue a reward order for you. Let's wait and see! I hope your Qing Li Restaurant can continue to be strong here! I, Tōtsuki Gakuen, cannot be insulted!" Li Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, denying the idea that he thought Nakiri left the doorman became angry. It is probably not bad, this should be the old man acting. Nakiri Zuoxian Gatekeeper, although he has devoted his whole life to Tōtsuki Academy, is also very concerned about Tōtsuki's interests. However, in the later period, I saw my daughter with the "God's Tongue" go to collapse step by step, and now my granddaughter Erina has derived the origin of life tragedy "God's Tongue". The mentality of this 'Demon Eater' has long since changed. Of course, he will still value Tōtsuki's interests, but at the same time, he is eager to build the Jade Age, wanting to create a truly top-notch cook right away, before his granddaughter Erina completely collapses and embarks on exactly the same path as his daughter. before the road. Therefore, Li Qing felt that he probably guessed the significance of Nakiri Zuoxian Gatekeeper's performance. It's really not that he became angry from embarrassment, but on the contrary, it's better to say, it's the "cook's way" that he made out of nonsense before he complied with him! After Nakiri Zuoxian Gatekeeper confirmed that he really would not join Tōtsuki Gakuen, he changed his mind to not adding or adding, but I will still train you, build you, and this category. Since then... "Li Qing boy, you open a restaurant here, and you are destined to be in peace. This old man will give you one last chance, do you really not want to join my Tōtsuki Academy?" Nakiri Zuoxian Gatekeeper asked again in a deep voice. "Yes." Li Qing nodded with a chuckle. "good!" Nakiri Zuoxian gatekeeper stuffed a letter through the crack of the bottom door, saying, "Your declaration of war against me, Tōtsuki, I have accepted. Besides, Erina asked me to bring it to you. I don't know that you and Erina How did you know each other, but since it was Erina's request, the old man didn't read it, so you can accept it." Li Qing knelt down and took the letter suspiciously. After opening it, there was only a very brief sentence on the thin letter paper:
[At 3 o'clock in the morning, I will arrive at Qingli Restaurant, fulfill my decision, and be your girl stepping on grapes. Don't forget to open the door when the time comes. Nakiri Erina】 Li Qing raised her eyebrows, and spat angrily: "At 3 o'clock in the morning, this young lady will really give me some new tricks." Listening outside, Nakiri Zuoxianmen had almost left, and there was no sound at all, so he turned off the lights and went upstairs. When he reached Ji Zhining's gate, he hesitated. Damn! Wake up at 3:00 am.. Forget it! Li Qing passed by with great perseverance, and quickly returned to her bedroom, took a shower, took a shower, embraced the yuan and kept one, went to bed early and woke up early. All for a better wine! ps: Nakiri Zuoxian gatekeeper upt.
