I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo

Chapter 97 - Chop Suey

After the matter with the policeman ended, the four of them went back without trouble, and Shiro-san also didn't cause trouble again, after all, even though Shiro-san was a pervert, masochist, and loved being abused, his EQ was quite good and he also had some common sense.

Even though no one wanted to admit it, Shiro-san was better than Shiina in terms of common sense.??

"I'll change my clothes first." Shishio looked at Shiina and asked, "After we eat dinner, I'll show you a man's body."

"Um." Shiina nodded gently.

Ritsu, who knew the matter between Shishio and Shiina, wasn't that surprised, but Shiro-san, who was on the side, was startled by the topic of the talk between Shishio and Shiina.

"Oga-kun, are you an exhibitionist?" Shiro-san asked with a surprised expression since he didn't expect Shishio to have such a fetish.

"........." Shishio and Ritsu.

Shishio understood slightly Mayumi's feeling and knew that it didn't feel good when a pervert called you a pervert, which made him feel slightly regret saving Shiro-san from the police.

"Shishio, are you an exhibitionist?" Shiina asked innocently.

".........."

---

The misunderstanding was solved, and after changing his clothes, Shishio went to the kitchen to prepare his dinner, and today's menu was chop suey.

Chop suey is a dish in American Chinese cuisine and other forms of overseas Chinese cuisine, consisting of meat and eggs, cooked quickly with vegetables such as bean sprouts, cabbage, and celery and bound in a starch-thickened sauce.

There was a lot of debate about where was the origin of this dish, but Shishio didn't care much about that and what was important was that this dish was delicious.

The ingredients were pretty much simple and that was a lot of veggies and meat. There was a lot of meat that could be used in this dish such as beef, pork, seafood, and chicken, but this time, he was using chicken meat, especially the thigh part since it was the most delicious part.

Some people might disagree with Shishio's opinion, but that was the truth since the thigh part of the chicken was more flavorful than any other parts since it had a lot of fat on it.

Well, some people said that the breast part of the chicken was the best, but this meat wasn't suitable for this dish since it was lean meat and it didn't have a lot of fat so when it was cooked, the meat would be dry and a little tough, but of course, it was also good for a diet since it didn't have much fat and it was also the reason why a lot of people loved this part of the chicken.

The thigh part and the breast part, a lot of people debated and it even caused a war on the culinary world, but under Shishio's hands, the chicken meat became so beautiful and it had become a piece of art.

Yes, Shishio had become the Michelangelo in the world of cuisine!

Shiina, Ritsu, and Shiro-san watched, appreciating, and drooled upon the cooking process in front of them. Even though the food wasn't ready yet, the intent of the food that was about to be cooked by Shishio was projected in their eyes, it might be vague, but slowly, it was about to take a form.

When someone has mastered a certain ability, skill, or craftsmanship, they can project their intent on the people's eyes. For example, when a master painter drew a mountain, even though there were only a few lines that were drawn, the people who saw those few lines, could see that the master painter was drawing a mountain.

It was the same as what Shishio did now, even though what he did was only preparation, everyone could see the projection of the chop suey and it caused their stomach to rumble.

After cutting the meat into bite sizes and marinating it with various seasonings and cornflour.

Shishio continued with the veggies from asparagus, carrot, shiitake mushrooms, bean sprouts, and baby corn, and while he did the veggies preparation, he also cooked the rice, miso soup, and a salad for the dinner.

"Stay back for a bit," Shishio suddenly said since the three of them were a little too close.

Hearing Shishio's voice, they nodded and moved slightly back, but their eyes kept watching, waiting for the food to be ready.

Shishio then without hesitation, put all the things that he had prepared before one by one on the skillet. If possible, he wanted to get a wok since it was easier to cook by using it, unfortunately, there was no such thing here.

The sound of sizzling of the ingredients was heard and the delicious aroma wafted through the entire room, which caused them to feel unbearable.

"Ah! I want to eat too!"

Suddenly a voice interrupted, but it couldn't shake Shishio's concentration, but Shiina, Ritsu, and Shiro-san turned their heads and saw both Chihiro and Misaki who had returned home.

"Hey, you've cooked? I want to eat too, Shishio," Chihiro said without hesitation.

"Yes, wait a moment," Shishio said then started to flip the chop suey on the skillet.

*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*

The chop suey flipped in the air then landed on the skillet again perfectly, and it was done several times.

Everyone was amazed, but Shiina opened her eyes wide since she could see a "golden ratio" happening in the flipping process, creating perfect rotation.

Then after a few minutes, the cooking process ended, and Shishio put the finished chop suey on the plate and for a moment, everyone could see the food in front of them were shining brightly.

'What?!'

They quickly wiped their eyes and the light disappeared, which made them wonder what that light was.

When the cooking process ended, Shishio moved very fast and there were six plates of dinners.

Everyone looked at Shishio who then also joined them and he said, "Well, let's eat."

Hearing those words, everyone didn't hesitate and started to eat then suddenly they saw that there were a lot of meteorites in the sky which caused them to be in shock, but before they could run away, they were bombarded with pleasure on their tongues!

"Ahhnnn!!!!"

Everyone moaned, their faces flushed, and stuck in place for a moment before they continued to eat.

Shishio, who ate, felt that his food was very delicious, but at the same time, he knew that this dish was made with a white grade ingredient and he was wondering what would happen if he cooked something by using better ingredients?

According to the system, there were seven grades that were separated by several colors, and those colors were: white, yellow, green, purple, black, red, and golden.

Shishio wasn't sure whether those top ingredients existed in this world, but if he got something like "Gardening Mastery", "Farming Mastery", or "Animal Husbandry Mastery", then it might be possible to cultivate those ingredients.

Shiro-san looked at Shishio and was wondering how someone could be so good at cooking.

'Is this a prodigy?'

It was the only explanation that Shiro-san could find at this moment, after all, he often heard that it required 10 years for someone to become a skilled sushi chef, but Shishio was only 15 years old, and at the same time, he knew that it was only a time before this young man would become the best chef in the whole world.

Misaki patted her stomach and her expression was full of satisfaction. She looked at Shishio and said, "Shishio-kun, let's get married."

"I refuse," Shishio said without hesitation.

"Then you can't get married and be my chef!" Misaki said while hugging Shishio's arm.

"I refuse," Shishio said and pushed Misaki away since this girl was too troublesome, but it seemed that Misaki became even eager, especially when she saw his disgusted expression. He looked at Misaki and wondered whether Misaki was affected by Shiro-san.

Ritsu raised her eyebrow and her eyes turned sharp, but she didn't notice it and wondered why she felt uncomfortable.

Chihiro wanted to stop them, but someone was faster.

"Shishio..." Shiina pulled Shishio's other arm and looked at him.

Shiro-san didn't say anything, only looked at the scene in front of them with an interest, and he was also very happy that he was being ignored at this moment.

"Well, we can do it here now," Shishio said.

"What are you going to do, Shishio-kun?" Misaki asked while looking at Shiina who was pulling Shishio's hand with interest.

"I'm going to show her a man's body," Shishio said simply.

"..........."

"WHAT?!" 2x

Chihiro and Misaki shouted at the same time and thought that Shishio might be affected by Shiro-san by a certain extent.

'Ah, this is so great!'

Shiro-san thought as if he could read their minds.
