Chapter 343: The Unscrupulous Chef Exposed
When they heard that the porridge was poisonous, the Nakajima couple's faces changed immediately.
Because of Miyano Shiho's medicine, they temporarily regained some consciousness. Thinking of the foul smell of the porridge like rotten meat just now, they suddenly became suspicious.
Nakajima Daisuke asked sharply, "Watanabe, is what this boy said true? Did you poison the porridge?"
At this time, Nakajima Daisuke had changed his previous depressed look and actually looked quite imposing.
Watanabe showed a little panic, but immediately calmed down.
He chuckled and said calmly, "How is this possible? Mr. Nakajima, we have known each other for so long, don't you still trust me? And you trust a passerby who is staying overnight?"
Daisuke Nakajima thought about it and felt that what Watanabe said made some sense.
Indeed, one is a chef who has worked in his own home for nearly a year, and the other is just a guest passing by and staying overnight. Is it necessary to say who to trust?
But he still had some questions: "So what's going on with this porridge? It doesn't taste like this normally."
Watanabe said calmly, "Maybe it's because of the hot weather, some of the ingredients have gone bad. Don't worry, Mr. Nakajima. I'll make another one right away."
Nakajima Daisuke nodded slightly, his expression softened: "Hurry up!"
"Yes!" Watanabe bowed slightly, looked at Yuya with a sneer, and left with the food cart.
Youya watched all this quietly without saying anything.
Furukawa Ryu also realized that something was wrong at this time. Looking at the strange atmosphere, he didn't dare to say anything more. He glanced at the seafood porridge in front of him and pushed it away.
"Hey, Kamiya..." Furukawa Ryu waved at Youye.
Yuya looked at him.
Furukawa Ryu lowered his voice: "What the hell is going on?"
Before Youya could answer, Nakajima Daisuke said with a rather grim expression, "My dear guest, I am kindly letting you stay overnight. Why are you slandering my chef?"
Yuya shrugged his shoulders: "Didn't Mr. Watanabe say he was going to make porridge again? Mr. Nakajima will know whether I am slandering you or not."
Nakajima Daisuke's eyes were dazed for a moment and he frowned slightly. He felt something was wrong with his body, but he didn't have time to think about it. What he cared more about now was to drink the porridge as soon as possible.
Looking towards the kitchen with anticipation.
Yuuka Nakajima next to her opened her mouth, then glanced secretly at her husband, but in the end said nothing.
Miyano Shiho had been observing Nakajima Daisuke's condition. She leaned over to Yuya's ear and whispered, "The toxin is more serious than I thought. My medicine didn't have the expected effect, but it worked better than I expected to reduce the nausea caused by the mushroom taste."
Yuya patted her hands and said, "It's okay, this is enough."
Noticing his phone vibrate, Youya glanced at the message and replied briefly.
Time passed slowly, and with the sound of wheels rubbing against the ground, Watanabe came back pushing the food cart.
Watanabe said confidently: "Mr. Nakajima, I have cooked the porridge again. This time I paid special attention to the ingredients, and I guarantee there will be no problems."
"Got it, bring the porridge up quickly!" Nakajima Daisuke said impatiently.
Watanabe looked at Yuya provocatively and served a bowl of porridge to each of the Nakajima couple.
Nakajima Daisuke was already getting impatient and picked up the bowl impatiently, but suddenly he stopped drinking the porridge.
Watanabe was stunned and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Nakajima Daisuke took a tentative bite, his face suddenly changed, and he spit out the porridge.
"Watanabe!" Nakajima Daisuke was visibly angry, his entire face flushed red, "Don't you want to do this anymore?"
Watanabe was startled: "Mr. Nakajima, could it be that this porridge..."
"Try it yourself!"
Watanabe's face looked extremely ugly. He smelled the porridge in the bowl, but didn't notice anything wrong at all. And just as he said, the ingredients used to cook the porridge were specially selected and there was no possibility that they would go bad.
why?
Watanabe suddenly looked at Yuya who was at ease, and asked with a grim expression: "It's you! What did you do to my porridge?"
Youye spread his hands: "Don't wrongly accuse a good person. From beginning to end, I have never touched seafood porridge and have never been to the kitchen. How can I make anything?"
"Mr. Watanabe, as a chef, do you test the quality of dishes only by smell? Shouldn't you taste it yourself?"
Watanabe's face twitched. Can I taste it?
The porridge had gone wrong twice in a row, and Yuya's words were indeed reasonable. Nakajima Daisuke finally realized that something was wrong, and asked Watanabe with a gloomy face: "Why don't you try it?"
A drop of cold sweat fell on Watanabe's forehead, and he subconsciously took a step back: "I'm a chef, I don't need to taste whether the food is good or not..."
"That's not right, Mr. Watanabe," Yuya said, supporting his chin with one hand. "I've watched a lot of food shows on TV, and the chefs in those shows have to taste the dishes themselves. How can you do that? Excuse me, what level of chef are you?"
"I, I, I..." Watanabe kept saying "I" for a long time but couldn't utter a word.
Nakajima Daisuke's face was extremely dark. He suddenly picked up the bowl, walked to Watanabe, and stuffed the bowl in front of him: "Give me drink!"
Watanabe was caught off guard and the bowl of porridge was almost poked into his mouth. He shouted in panic, "No!" and quickly waved his hands around the restaurant, knocking the bowl away.
Such performance undoubtedly confirmed that there was indeed something wrong with the seafood porridge. Otherwise, as the person who cooked the porridge himself, how could he not dare to drink it and look so afraid of it?
Nakajima Daisuke looked at the broken bowl on the ground, his whole body shaking with anger: "You actually, really poisoned the porridge?!"
Watanabe came back to his senses and stammered in defense: "It's not me, I didn't, he wronged a good person!"
Yuya sneered, fumbled in his pocket for a while, took out something and threw it on the table: "Mr. Watanabe, do you recognize this?"
Watanabe looked at it in confusion, and his expression suddenly changed: "How do you have this?"
Yuya smiled and said, "I was hungry last night and wanted to go to the kitchen to find something to eat, and I found this thing. Mr. Nakajima, can you take a look?"
Nakajima Daisuke was puzzled. What was so good about a mushroom? But he still walked over, picked up the mushroom, looked at it, and smelled it.
You could tell there was something wrong as soon as you smelled it. The beautiful mushrooms, which looked bright red and colorful, actually had a rotten smell.
"What is this!" Nakajima Daisuke quickly threw away the mushroom, and suddenly realized, "This smell is exactly the same as the stinky smell in the seafood porridge!"
Watanabe's face turned pale. What happened? Why did it become like this? I had been taking it for a year without any problems. Why did it become like this?
What on earth did this kid do?
Watanabe carefully recalled Yuya's actions after he appeared, and suddenly realized that it was the bottle of transparent drink!
"What did you give them to drink?!" Watanabe asked loudly.
Nakajima Daisuke was stunned and remembered the transparent drink. Considering Watanabe's previous experience, could it be that this boy had poisoned himself as well?
