Chapter 594 (1/2)
The two people were a man and a girl. They looked quite young and they were either overseas students or tourists. Taking advantage of the neighboring people’s ignorance of Chinese, the two people talked with eloquence.
“Speaking of domestic culinary skills, do you see the LED at the entrance of that hotel, Xiaojing?” Judging from his tone, the man sounded both gossiping and concerned.
“Yeah, I know. You are talking about the exchange of culinary skills, specifically, the exchange meeting of culinary skills between chefs from China and Japan, right?” The girl called Xiaojing was the source of the female voice just now. She didn’t even try to conceal the discontent in her tone at all.
“Right on. I don’t know on which aspects they are competing, but obviously, our knife skills aren’t as good as theirs. How can we possibly make sashimi as well as the Japanese?” The man said with a tone of anxiety.
“I agree with you. It’s known by all that Chinese cuisines are well-known for its taste and heat control rather than the knife skills.” Xiaojing complained.
“Exactly. Why do they utilize their strong points to attack other’s weak points? They’ll definitely be badly beaten if they don’t make best use of the advantages and bypass the disadvantages.” The man continued saying.
“Not necessarily. At least, we are really not bad on other aspects.” Xiaojing contradicted him slightly.
“Well, you are right. There should be no problem with the taste.” The man approved Xiaojing’s words.
The conversation between the two people was interrupted by the new dishes served. Then, yz didn’t listen to them anymore. He diverted his attention to the dishes in front of him.
After he tasted a slice of raw horse meat carefully, yz set down the chopsticks gently.
“Wu Jun, you go to ask the lovers randomly about their following schedule.” yz said that naturally and straightforwardly.
“Gee?” Wu Jun looked at yz with puzzlement. To ask the strangers randomly about their following schedule?
What exactly for?
“I count on you, veteran.” yz didn’t intend to explain to him. He just said primly.
“Yeah, you are right. I’m just a veteran with plenty of experiences. Since you say so, I will definitely show you and prove my experiences.” Wu Jun rolled up his sleeves and headed for the lovers with full of spirits.
Yz didn’t actually focus his attention on Wu Jun, but instead, on the first-class roasted salmon in front of him. He tasted the whole fish carefully for a while from the fish skin to the fish meat.
“Is this the horse oil? Interesting. It has some offensive smell.” yz looked at the raw horse oil in front of him and revealed an interested expression.
The horse oil ordered by yz was the raw horse oil cut into very thin slices. They were arranged loosely into a shape of a flower. Anyway, it looked beautiful.
However, yz still smelled an offensive smell of the horse, yet within the scope of tolerance.
Served along with the horse oil, there was another plate, where some soy sauce was poured. Yz picked up one slice of the horse oil with the chopsticks and dipped it in the soy sauce and then started to eat.
“Well, the taste is a little strange, but it almost doesn’t have any special feeling. It is neither fresh and sweet nor greasy. It tastes like the oil and meanwhile not like the oil.” While chewing, yz analyzed the taste of the horse oil.
Yz hadn’t eaten a few more slices of the raw horse oil before Wu Jun returned in triumph.
“Hey, Straight Face. You are way too far. You eat up the roasted salmon when I go to inquire about some information for you? I have never expected that you are such a kind of person. I’m too disappointed.” Wu Jun looked at the empty plate in front of yz and said that without thinking.
“What’ s the conclusion?” yz had been quite used to neglecting Wu Jun’s complaint and got straight to the point.
“They are the overseas students to Osaka from China and they come to Tokyo for tour. They have visited Meiji Shrine today and tomorrow they prepare to go to Nijubashi and Kokyo and the day after tomorrow, Tsukiji Market. After that, they are scheduled to go to the scenery spots like Kaminarimon, Senso-ji Temple and Tokyo Sky Tree. All of the scenery spots are quite popular.” Wu Jun answered him subconsciously.
“Um. Isn’t Tsukiji Market the largest fish market?” yz selected a familiar place from them and asked.
“Yes, indeed. Tsukiji Market is right at No. 1, 5th Unit Wudingmu, Tsukiji, Central District, Tokyo Metropolis. It’s a well-known market even in Japan nationwide. Besides, it has long been reported to be dismantled, but it hasn’t yet. A lot of people go travelling there.” Wu Jun slightly introduced the Tsukiji Market.
“Um. I originally intended to go there for a look.” yz’s hobby was to wander in the vegetable market. He also did the same in Chengdu.
He usually went to the nearest place to buy radishes. For the vegetables, however, it wasn’t necessarily so. Yz would undoubtedly go for a visit wherever there was a large and famous vegetable market.
“What? What do you prepare to do, Straight Face?” Naturally, Wu Jun also heard that. That was why he asked yz such a question.
