Chapter 391 Qualified(1/2)
Okara walked behind Menqi and Buhasa to prepare a kitchen for all the candidates who took this hunter exam.
After everyone failed to try sushi for the first time, they were a little depressed because the taste of the food really varies from person to person. Obviously, they are not the best at making cooking.
When he saw several candidates, he was even angry and was using the kitchen knife in his hand to vent his breath at several fish that had just been hunted. For them, cooking was better than having a good fight.
From their endless curses, it was obvious that everyone seemed to have complaints about Men Qi's passing standards. But there was no way, who made the examiner of the second round of assessment stand a food hunter! So even if he had any complaints, he could not offend her at this critical moment.
Okabaya shook his head. These people were not calm in their minds and were still blindly losing their temper from the perspective of things. Even if they made ‘sushi’ again, they would probably be criticized by Men Qi.
He was slow and did not rush to make his own sushi dish. Instead, he walked to the sushi that Menqi had eliminated and was thrown into the trash can. Looking at these failed works that were almost eliminated after just taking a small bite, Okabashi's eyes flashed, and he stretched out his hand and gently picked up one.
The sushi that the candidates had made but were thrown away was put in front of their noses.
"What a strong jealous smell." Okabaya's nose twitched gently, his expression changed, and some disgusted it and found a place to put it alone.
Immediately afterwards, he reached out his hand again, took out a good-looking sushi from it, and sniffed it carefully. This time it was too much of the mustard sauce, and there was a pungent momentum.
Okara selected more than a dozen sushi works for comparison.
The reason why most of the sushi was eliminated directly was that the candidates were too fooled. Not to mention the incisions, even the thorns of the fillets were not removed. As for the sushi that was made in a decent manner and was thrown away after being bitten in a small bite, it was because of some lack of ingredients and was simply not well-known in terms of taste. If it were him, he would have defined the sushi of these people as "uneatable"!
Because everyone thinks that the ingredients are similar to the appearance and can pass the test, so they lack some thoughts! Usually, ordinary people think that these sushi are just food, just to fill their stomachs.
For food hunters with special existence like Menqi, they should consider the word "food" very important, rather than excessive taste requirements. In other words, the main reason for all candidates to come to the bottom of the matter is that everyone does not respect "food hunters"!
That's right, it's respect!
The more special a profession is, the easier it is to be misinterpreted.
This is the reality that Okara, the forensic doctor, knows the most!
It is because all candidates think of food hunters with a certain degree of contempt and disdain.
Therefore, the young and energetic Men Qi has a mentality of being angry with everyone. Ohba changed his thinking and thought about it, regardless of taste or whether it meets the requirements. The most important thing is whether you are interested or not!
When everyone didn't notice this, if the sushi he made was thoughtful, it would become a speculation in Menqi's eyes to respect food hunters against the backdrop of others.
Thinking of this, Okabaya returned to the kitchen utensils he assigned.
He used the kitchen knife in his hand to scrape off the scales, then shave off the fish bones in the delicious meat. Finally, he used his best scalpel technique to slice a piece of fish meat at a diagonal angle. In terms of grasping the knife technique, Okayama was very careful because he remembered that sashimi looked simple, but was actually very picky and fine. When cutting, the texture of the knife and the fish meat should be at a 90-degree angle. The cut fish fillets are short in shape, which is conducive to chewing and have a good taste.
He has observed that the sushi made by other candidates were cut off completely randomly. Because they were cut with a knife along the texture of the fish, the cut tendons were too long and the taste was not good. When mixed between the rice grains, it would cause a taste that was difficult to swallow and chew.
Next is the grip of the rice and the combination of seasonings.
Speaking of which, this is the first time Okabata has made sushi, but he has eaten it in Japan thousands of times, so it should be better than many candidates on the basis. Although he doesn't know the ratio of seasoning, he can use the stupidest method, that is, after making it, he keeps trying it with his own mouth.
As long as it gets closer to the taste and taste of sushi in his mind, it should be almost done!
When Okabata spent about two or three times the time for the others and calmly made three pieces of sushi, he carefully put the plate on it, then breathed a sigh of relief, and took it to Menqi to taste it.
He is not sure whether he can pass it. But one thing is certain, that is, if someone really passes this exam, it will definitely be himself! The sushi he made is basically close to the level of his production in those takeaway restaurants in Japan. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was the last work that was selected after trying the taste over and over again.
Men Qi fell on the sofa tired and lazy, sending away the candidates who were carrying plates to her. She looked in a bad mood. Because compared to Buhashu's casualness, Men Qi's requirements are simply too strict for everyone!
Many candidates kept trying, were rejected, and left indignantly.
She was already a little impatient. If someone sent her another junk food that had not grown up, she would plan to terminate the exam! If no one passed the exam, don't blame yourself for being merciless. When Men Qi thought of this, there was a smile on her face that was beyond my mind, and her partner Buhashu seemed to notice it.
Being together for many years, Buhasai can't understand Men Qi's personality very well.
Her pursuit of food is almost harsh, so so much sushi delivered is not in her sight.
"Men Qi, should we appropriately relax our pass requirements? If this continues, if no one passes the second round of the exam, it seems difficult for us as the examiners to end." Buhasai couldn't help but persuade.
Men Qi glanced at him and said lightly: "Bhasai. We are here to be examiners. We are not here to tease these guys. As long as they can make dishes that I am satisfied with, I will naturally pass. But I think it is meaningless to continue the exam! Although it is an ostensibly to make dishes, it is actually a test of their observation skills, good at discovering, and serious attitude towards doing things. Only by having these qualities can you truly become a qualified hunter."
"But if the people from the review committee ask," Buhasai looked at Men Qi in embarrassment, he always listened to her.
Men Qi smiled and said, "Of course I will explain to them, don't worry."
Just as the two of them were talking, a calm voice sounded gently in their ears: "I think if no candidates pass the exam really successfully, the content of the exam should be re-formulated. Otherwise, if the candidates for this Hunter Exam are bye, many candidates will have opinions about the Hunter Guild."
Hearing the sudden interruption, Men Qi subconsciously held her expression, turned her head coldly, and looked at the eventful guy with her eyes.
When she raised her head and saw a figure covered in a black robe, her originally stiff and rigid expression suddenly softened a lot, and her eyes looked at the man standing in front of her with a little shy look.
Because this man is nothing else, he is Okara whom she has praised before.
Buhasus looked at Men Qi blushing strangely.
"Well, um. I almost forgot about you. Although I think we can become friends, as the chief examiner of this exam, I still can't deliberately let you pass." Men Qi said nervously and at a loss.
She likes the unique feeling of this man, and she can't help but feel the urge to look at him a few more when she sees his face.
Hearing her words, Buhas was so surprised that he couldn't stop talking.
Okata nodded. He was very calm and had never thought about letting Menqi release water and letting him pass the second round of the exam. He handed the carefully prepared sushi he had made to Menqi and Buhasai, and said slowly: "I made three copies, and you both can try it. If you think there is any problem, you can tell me directly that if you have enough time, I will improve it."
"Oh, it's you." Buhasai looked at Okata and suddenly remembered that when he asked each candidate to make a roasted whole pig, what he remembered the most was the roasted pig that the man sent him, which was particularly appetizing.
Now that he heard that he invited him to taste sushi, Buhas looked at the very small plate in his hand, which was very small.
"Is this what you made?" Men Qi took the plate and saw that it was neatly arranged inside, each knife edge was meticulous, and the sushi that looked very delicious, and looked at him in surprise. As an excellent food hunter, at first glance, he could tell the difference between this plate and the sushi that others had brought before.
Careful, exquisite, first-class knife skills, fresh and juicy fish fillets, impeccable in shape and color, which is exactly the same as the sushi cuisine she had eaten in the Oriental Island country.
Ogata nodded, Guanmen Qi's expression, feeling that the sushi he made should have a chance.
Menqi picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of sushi made by Okara, dipped it in the saucepan, and handed it to the looking-out Buhasai.
Buhashi bent down, swallowed the sushi held on the chopsticks in one bite, and began to chew it on his own. It seemed that it was not as whole as roasted whole pigs, but tasted various tastes carefully.
Men Qi also picked up a piece and put it in her mouth.
"It tastes delicious, it tastes really good!" Buhashi pursed his lips and gave Okata a thumbs up.
Maybe it was because Buhasai's voice was too loud, which made many candidates who had no progress and were frowning and looked at it, and happened to see the sushi made by Men Qi and the others.
What? Does anyone want to pass!?
All the candidates gathered their eyes and looked at the familiar figure.
Black robe, top hat, a solemn aura.
The eyes were filled with various colors, including envy and jealousy, doubt and curiosity, and some people tried to see clearly what his sushi looked like!
"It was the doctor who exposed the disguise of the examiner. He seemed to be called Okara, right? Could he be qualified?"
"It's really him. I saw him not taking action just now."
"Damn it! Why is this happening? Isn't that examiner very picky? Someone will pass?"
Suddenly, the scene became noisy. As the person involved, everyone's comments rang out in Ogata's ears. Everyone's eyes were unbalanced. It seemed that everyone should be the same, because of the examiner's tricky taste, he could not pass the exam.
Menqi ate the whole sushi in Okabaya's sight. She tasted it carefully, and the process slowed down compared to Buhasai.
"It tastes good." Men Qi looked at Okata. This was indeed the sushi she had eaten the most attentively. And herself, she had a good impression of the people who cooked the dishes, so she added a lot of points.
Okabaya stared at her face for a while, and at this time he took out a meal from his pocket and handed it to her: "Wipe your mouth." No matter how serious or bad-tempered a girl is, she will show that she needs someone to take care of at some point.
Seeing that there were traces of sushi dipping on her mouth, it was obvious that Bhasai, who had the best relationship with her, would not care about it.
Upon hearing this, Men Qi was stunned and blushed. She took the paper handed over by Yu Fang and carefully wiped the corners of her mouth.
"Okay, you are qualified!" Suddenly, Men Qi blinked at him and said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Ogata nodded relaxedly, without showing too much fluctuation, and was not excited or happy. He just predicted that this girl should have a different comparison with a slightly authentic and slightly more authentic sushi.
It seems that some candidates heard the word "qualified" in Men Qi's mouth. They looked at Ohka incredibly. Are they really qualified? Did they hear it wrong?
At this time, a burly candidate stood up. He was a wrestler. He stared at Men Qi and said loudly: "Tell me, why is this kid qualified?"
Hearing his voice, Ogata turned around and someone came out to find fault as he expected, because the time came out.
Men Qi, the chief examiner, was so angry when he heard his question: "If you can make such delicious sushi, I will declare you qualified. It is the hunter exam now, and you must strictly implement the questions given by the examiner."
The burly man stared at Men Qi gritted his teeth and said without giving up: "Is the materials different or the methods different? You should tell us everyone, right? Otherwise, everyone will be busy all the time and you will be rejected?"
Men Qi snorted and said, "Just try the sushi Okara made, you will know what the difference is between what you made and what he made!"
Hearing this, he didn't believe that a sushi could taste so good.
So he walked straight to Menqi, grabbed the sushi made by Okara without hesitation, and stuffed it into his mouth.
"How is it?" He was asked not by others, but by a group of candidates waiting for answers. Everyone's thoughts were the same as him. How could such a simple dish be different from good or bad?
The man's expression was a little struggling. After he slowly swallowed it into his stomach, he replied ambiguously: "Let's just be sloppy."
What is the answer? All the candidates were a little dissatisfied, but only the man who tried it knew that the sushi he had just eaten in his mouth was indeed very delicious.
When Okara was tasting, he had already left quietly. He didn't intend to be the target of public criticism, so it was a good way to disappear for a while.
Leoli shook Okatsu's shoulders hard and stared at his face hard: "Okatsu! Tell me quickly, how to do it? The brat actually passed. Do you know that woman?"
No matter how he guessed, he couldn't guess the first qualified guy was Okara who took the hunter exam with them.
Others may not know, but Leoli is very clear that Okata's cooking skills are actually not very good.
The two lived together for more than three months, and he had eaten the meals that Ogata had cooked. It can only be said that they were average and should be half a pound of 80% against him.
But at present, he actually stood out in this link involving "cooking skills", which made Leoli add a lot of room for association, that is, Okata Tetsuda and the female examiner were old acquaintances.
Okabata smiled bitterly: "I just met the woman named Men Qi. As for how she was qualified, it has nothing to do with the materials and methods."
