Chapter 216: The Peculiar Shinomiya Kojiro
The second batch of dumplings was snatched up within a minute by those impatient graduates. Every person who tasted the Three-Egg Dumpling displayed a face full of happiness. However, there was one exception – Shinomiya Kojiro.
Facing the other graduates scrambling for the dumplings, he showed no intention of trying them. Instead, he sat alone behind the kitchen counter, supporting his chin with one hand, gazing sharply toward the din...

Chapter 215: I Have Special Noodle Kneading Skills
Although he was kneading the dough, Hachiman didn't use a drop of water. Instead, he chose to use eggs as a binding agent.
Witnessing him swiftly crack eggs into the mixing bowl, Hachiman soon added over a dozen eggs. Then, rolling up his sleeves, he began to draw circles in the flour pile with both hands.
Starting from a small center portion, his hands circled wider and wider, gradually incorporating the surrounding flou...

After about an hour of travel, the car came to a slow stop.
Stepping out of the car and looking at the majestic skyscraper in front of him, Hachiman raised an eyebrow.
"You must be Hikigaya-kun, as mentioned by Chief Nakiri."
At that moment, a hearty voice echoed, and Hachiman turned to see a tall man in a suit standing at the hotel entrance.
With a robust physique that even the suit couldn't conceal, his closely-cropped...

During the break after lunch, Hachiman entered Shizuka's office.
Since it was lunchtime, most of the teachers had gone to have their meals, leaving Shizuka alone, enjoying her takeout ramen.
As she noticed someone approaching, Shizuka, who was eating her noodles, lifted her head.
Seeing Hachiman, a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

Indeed, as Senzaemon mentioned, if he were to open a restaurant, having a reserve of talent was indispensable. The best cradle for cultivating chefs in Japan was undoubtedly Totsuki Academy.
Leaving aside the graduates, there were numerous outstanding students among the current attendees. The Elite Ten aside, eve...
