Looking at the small shop that had just been repaired but hadn't started business yet, Instructor Suzuki pulled out a hundred-mon coin, a mischievous smile on his face.
"Here."
Looking at his expression, Hoshino Sora silently reached behind his back, then, as if by magic, produced a bottle of Ramune soda, taking the hundred yen from Instructor Suzuki's hand.
"Eh, how did you do that? You conjured a bottle of soda out of thin air!"
"I've studied a little magic."
"Is that something magic can do? Tsk..."
He opened the cap and drank the soda, finishing the entire bottle in four or five gulps. Placing the bottle on the table nearby, Instructor Suzuki looked at Hoshino Sora again.
"Do you want another bottle?"
Looking at the'so thirsty' Instructor Suzuki, Hoshino Sora took out another bottle of Ramune soda, his eyes calm. However, this time the other party refused him: "No need."
"Um, I remember your name is Hoshino Sora, right? The First Seat of the Elite Ten?"
"That's right, what about it?"
Their gazes met, with a sense of confrontation.
"It's a pleasure to meet you again. I am Instructor Suzuki."
Squinting, Suzuki reached out to Hoshino Sora. Hoshino Sora, seeing this, clapped his hands to remove the dust and shook his hand. Then a great force came, but it did not move him in the slightest.
"Still... Eh, tsk, good taste."
He had originally intended to pull Hoshino Sora over and overwhelm him with his aura, but no matter how hard he tried, the guy in front of him remained motionless. His strength was somewhat frightening.
"My taste has always been good."
"Anyway, good luck. I believe you will definitely pass, Hoshino Sora."
Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Suzuki released his hand, put on his hat, and left. His eyes held an unyielding coldness. He had come to demonstrate, but unexpectedly, he was instead suppressed by the other party. How embarrassing.
While Hoshino Sora and Suzuki were talking, Tadokoro Megumi and the others had also bought ingredients for dinner from the nearby Commercial Street. Seeing the situation on site, they were also full of confusion.
"What happened? Did you have a conflict with that new teacher?"
After Suzuki had walked far away, the group came forward. Looking at Suzuki's gradually receding back, Hisako Arato asked with some concern.
"Who knows? I only met him today. Anyway, let's try to open tonight. We shouldn't be too far behind the others."
Shrugging, Hoshino Sora looked at the other stalls. On the first day, everyone was buying ingredients and conducting cooking research. Only a few shops were open, and business was exceptionally booming.
Among them, the most popular was the traditional snack shop opened by Hojo Miyoko. Because it was traditional, as long as there were no major mistakes, there would definitely be an audience.
"Hmm, but I really didn't expect you to be able to repair the shop in just one afternoon, Hoshino-kun is amazing! Love you~"
Looking at the brand-new shop in front of her, Alice Nakiri excitedly pounced on Hoshino Sora, then stamped kisses on his face. It truly was a miracle!
Everyone knew this was the result of Hoshino Sora's efforts. Because he possessed Gourmet Cells, many places that would require tools for ordinary people to handle, he could solve with just his hands, so the progress was very fast.
"Alright, alright, let's go back first. Everyone has been busy all day and hasn't eaten. Tonight, each of us will make one dish, and then we'll set up a table."
"Okay~"
"Agreed."
Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, the girls all raised their hands in agreement. Then, the group returned to the small house together. Soon, a rich aroma wafted from the secluded corner, attracting tourists from afar.
"Did you smell that? It smells so good!"
Smelling the aroma lingering in the air, the tourists who were playing beach volleyball suddenly stopped. The high-flying volleyball also fell to the ground because no one caught it. Everyone looked at each other, curious about the source of the aroma.
"I heard that there are Far Moon students here taking their final exams. This aroma should be coming from their shops. After all, it's a famous culinary school, so their skills must be excellent!"
"Damn it! My stomach suddenly got hungry when I smelled this! I can't, I can't, I can't play volleyball for another second! Eat, eat, eat! Ah! Which shop is this aroma coming from?!"
Their gazes wandered around, searching for the source of the delicious food, but complex aromas wafted in the air. Although one aroma was particularly prominent, they didn't know where it was coming from.
"Just buy a little something from each shop and taste them one by one, you idiot."
"You're the idiot! If we eat from every shop, we'll be full long before we find it! And if we don't eat the food from the last shop, won't we lose out big time!"
"What did you say!"
"Alright, stop arguing. The smell seems to be coming from over there. Let's go check it out."
Kiyoko Shimizu stood between Shoyo Hinata and Tobio Kageyama, who were about to argue. At the same time, the strong men of the volleyball club appeared behind them, firmly locking their arms.
