It was specifically emphasized that only Megumi Tadokoro could do it, and Lynch was not allowed to interfere and could only play a supporting role.
After being subjected to a wave of derivative pressure from the other party, Tadokoro Megumi immediately felt unwell and entered that fear mode again. This gave Lin Qi a headache. Couldn't this girl be a little braver?
Tadokoro Megumi's carefully constructed psychological defenses crumbled instantly, and she started thinking about all sorts of random things again.
While the other person was being suppressed and lost in thought, Shinomiya Kojiro had already completed all the preparations and spoke coldly when he saw this.
"Mr. Lynch, it seems you're doomed to lose, and I see absolutely no potential in this dragging me down."
Lin Qi smiled at this, and then put his hand on the other person's head.
"I told you not to overthink it, just bring out your best."
"Don't treat this as a competition, but as a challenge to yourself."
After Lin Qi put his hand on the other person's head, he helped calm her down. At this moment, the girl calmed down and began to think about the recipe, while Lin Qi remained silent throughout the entire process.
Once he had made up his mind, he immediately came to tell Lin Qi his idea and asked if it was okay.
Lin Qi smiled after hearing this.
"Your question is unnecessary. Of course it can't be done easily. I'll take care of all of these things. You just need to focus on these."
Chapter 366 Why Don't You Join Me? Conditions: Leave!
"Qi Jun, is it really possible?"
"Won't this put a lot of work on you?"
Tadokoro was completely stunned after hearing this, knowing that this would put a lot of work on the other party.
“Why not? What’s a lot of work for you is nothing to me. This will save a lot of time, and you’ll be able to make more adjustments.”
"Then I'm sorry to trouble you."
After they finished speaking, the two began.
Lin Qi was the first to pick up a carrot, not even bothering to peel it, just using a kitchen knife. With a few swings, the peel came off completely, and then, with a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, he swung the knife, a flash of cold light, and instantly chopped it as requested.
The knife skills he displayed left the onlookers in astonishment, as four of them had never seen Lin Qi use his knife before.
"It's moving too fast, we can't see it at all."
Megumi Tadokoro was also stunned by Lynch's behavior. Could this really be something a human being could do?
Stop staring blankly and hurry up.
After hearing this, Tadokoro Megumi immediately got to work, while 07 was assisting her. In fact, he was drawing Lin Qi's attention with one hand while he was chopping vegetables and mixing sauce with the other. He tossed the vegetables into the air, then picked up the knife again and swung it around, causing the stones to fall down neatly. His other hand was constantly adding various sauces to make the sauce.
"Hiss... Isn't this a bit too outrageous?"
These 537 professional chefs said it was outrageous after seeing your description of the procedure, and what's more, they all looked relaxed.
Dojima Gin was moved after witnessing this scene.
"The head chef now is Tadokoro, and Mr. Lynch is just assisting. So he has toned it down a lot."
"Yes, yes, Qi Jun is the most amazing chef I've ever seen, bar none."
At this moment, the other one also broke free of the rope and spoke with a smile. These people finally understood why the other had become a specially appointed lecturer, the kind that no one could touch, and there was even a special rule that the Ten Heroes or the Commander-in-Chief were not qualified to move him.
The cooking time for dishes that would normally take a long time was reduced by half.
After finishing his own auxiliary work, Lin Qi walked to the side and entered "watching the show" mode.
These people watched as the other party simply left. The battlefield was somewhat speechless, but considering that the other party had genuinely finished their task and had nothing else to do, their departure was understandable.
"Lin Qijun, how did you develop such amazing knife skills? It's incredible."
Someone came over and asked with a curious look on their face.
"I haven't practiced much. It's just that my hand speed is relatively fast. To put it bluntly, it's just a natural physical advantage. As long as you have enough strength and speed, and your vision is accurate, that's enough."
It has to be said that this answer is simple and blunt, but it seems to be the truth.
But that level of precision—they saw with their own eyes that every single vegetable was exactly the same length and thickness—must have required a lot of practice. But they never expected that Lin Qi was just a cheat code.
When the dishes were served, the two began to taste them, and Lin Qi himself took a portion and ate it.
As expected, the other party didn't have any passion for cooking; it was just so-so, very average. It gave the impression that they had been stagnant for a long time.
When Tadokoro Megumi's dishes were served, they were quite pleasant to eat, but there was no surprise in sight, given the difference in skill level.
As these people were making their comments, a coin mysteriously fell to the ground.
When Shinomiya Kojiro saw the owner of the coin, he looked incredulous.
"Chef Dojima, are you kidding me?"
"This is no joke, this is my sincere vote."
"Kojiro, after I ate your food, I realized that you haven't improved in a long time, have you?"
"After you successfully won the medal, you haven't made any further progress."
At this moment, Shinomiya Kojiro seemed to have been touched on a sore spot. He took a few steps back and then spoke with an angry expression.
What do you know about this kind of thing?
In a fit of anger, the other party lashed out at him, portraying him as nothing more than a pitiful head chef hired by Totsuki.
Dojima Gin didn't care at all, after all, he was well aware of the other party's situation, or rather, that he was the irritable type who couldn't improve as a chef.
"You'll know once you eat it."
At this moment, Gin Dojima placed the dish that Megumi Tadokoro had prepared in front of her. He then indicated that she should eat it.
Upon hearing this, Shinomiya Kojiro looked at the food in front of him, puzzled. However, seeing the other person's gaze, he still chose to eat. After dying, he entered a state of recollection and couldn't help but cry.
Then he proactively dropped a coin down.
At this point, they discovered the problem and pointed out the materials used by the other party one by one.
When these people understood the other party's intentions, it has to be said that very few chefs are as meticulous as this.
Hinako Inui broke her own hand, found a coin and tossed it in, making it a tie at 3.
Seeing that the score was now tied, Lin Qi took his men away, since there was no point in them staying any longer.
The two walked in tandem.
At this point, Megumi Tadokoro called Lynch to a halt.
"Um, Lin Qijun, thank you very much."
The other person then bowed and thanked them.
Lin Qi smiled and spoke after seeing the other person's appearance.
"It's not simply a matter of me wanting to do it."
After saying that, he immediately looked regretful.
"Actually, I regret it quite a bit. I actually wanted you to be expelled from school."
Megumi Tadokoro: ? ? ?
Upon hearing this, Tadokoro Megumi had countless question marks on her head, somewhat confused, so Lin Qi continued to explain.
"Think about it, if you get expelled from school, then I can take the opportunity to take you away."
Lin Qi looked regretful at this moment. To be honest, he felt that he should have abandoned his principles, but instead he picked them up again.
Tadokoro Megumi looked at Lin Qi's regretful face, somewhat puzzled.
"Lin Qijun, you also own a restaurant?"
After all, if they want to take you away, they should want you to work for them.
"I don't own a restaurant."
Tadokoro Megumi was even more confused after hearing this.
"I know what you're thinking. Let me put it this way: I've always wanted to find a cook to take care of, preferably a pretty young girl, but most of them aren't suitable. You seem like a good fit. After all, you're quite suitable to be a bride, so how about I bring together a cook and a bride at the same time? That's my idea."
"You know, there are four people living in the house now, and none of them are suitable to be a cook."
"As for myself, I may be very capable, but I don't like cooking, so I've been looking for someone to cook for me. How about you consider working with me after graduation?"
After hearing this, Tadokoro Megumi blushed, feeling that there might be something wrong with her understanding. But what he meant by wanting to abduct her to his house to be a cook and then a bride was like having two jobs in a row. And a bride? He must be joking.
"Lin Qijun, don't joke around with brides and stuff like that."
"You're such an amazing person. I'm just an ordinary person."
"It depends on what you think. You can consider it when you graduate."
"Anyway, you'll get excellent treatment here. To put it bluntly, you can name your salary, and I'll give it to you as long as you ask. I'll even give you things of equal value to Totsuki."
Lin Qi decisively issued recruitment conditions, after all, as long as he could bring the person with him, it wouldn't be a problem to win him over.
When Tadokoro heard the conditions, she was completely dumbfounded and seriously suspected that the other party was joking with her, but when she saw the other party's serious expression, she fell silent.
Chapter 367 They even steal food, don't they have any shame?
"Lin Qijun, thank you very much for recruiting me. I will consider it in the future."
Tadokoro Megumi did not refuse; she could tell the other party was going to smile, but she spoke seriously.
"Okay, okay, anyway, this promise is always valid."
Tadokoro Megumi breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and then looked at Lin Qi and spoke in a serious tone.
"Lin Qijun, thank you so much this time. I really don't know how to repay you."
Tadokoro Megumi knew very well that if Lynch didn't help her, she would be expelled from school, so she really owed him a huge favor. Not to mention that he had helped her start the food battle and borne the stakes. She had no right to gamble with him in her own situation.
Upon hearing this, Lin Qi revealed a sly smile, as if his prey had taken the bait.
"You want to repay me, right?"
"Uh-huh."
Tadokoro Megumi had no idea that the person in front of her was a big bad wolf, so she nodded innocently.
"Then you'd better listen to me and close your eyes."
Tadokoro Megumi was a little confused after hearing this, but trusting the big bad wolf who had just saved her from dire straits, she closed her eyes. Then, she realized something was wrong, mainly because she found that her mouth was gagged.
