Chapter 2032 - Who Do You Think Is Going To Win?
With the pa.s.sing of time, the preliminary round on Block B ended, and right now, Erina and Haru were on the other venue to watch the preliminary round on Block A.
"What do you think of the partic.i.p.ants on Block A?" Erina asked. Unlike Block B, where there was Hisako and Alice, there was also Ik.u.mi Mito, who was her follower on the school and unlike the original plot, Erina didn"t scold Mito after she lost to Yukihira since Erina knew that Yukihira had a close relationship with Haru and Yukihira"s father was one of the best chefs in the world, Jouichirou Yukihira.
Erina felt that it wouldn"t be weird if Yukihira won. As for A-grade or B-grade food, she didn"t really care much, especially when the knot on her heart had been solved by Haru.
"Well, I can guess that Kurokiba, Hayama, and Yukihira, will pa.s.s the next stage," Haru said simply.
Erina nodded and didn"t feel that surprised by Haru"s words. She knew both Kurokiba and Yukihira, but even though she didn"t know much about Hayama, she still knew that guy was good at using spice and curry.
With curry as a theme for this preliminary round, if Hayama couldn"t pa.s.s, then he would tarnish the name of Shiomi Seminar.
Shiomi Seminar was one of the clubs at the Tootsuki Academy that did deep research on spice.
If Hayama"s curry dish, who was the member of this Shiomi Seminar, couldn"t move the judges, then it was better to dissolve the club, right?
This was why Haru also understood that Hayama couldn"t lose no matter what, and Hayama also had the ability.
Combined with will and skill, Hayama had a chance to become the champion of this Autumn Election.
Still, Hayama was lucky that the compet.i.tors" ability was quite similar to each other.
If Haru decided to enter this Autumn Election, then it would be a simple ma.s.sacre, and he would be the winner of this election easily.
"Haru, you have only told me three of them." Erina acted like a baby, sitting on Haru"s lap, asking him who would pa.s.s the next stage beside the three of them.
"Try to guess," Haru said with a smile before he put his chin on her shoulder, sniffing her elegant fragrance that intoxicated him.
"Hmm...." Erina blushed lightly and slapped his thigh. Still, she looked in the direction of the venue and said, "It"s Ik.u.mi, right?"
Haru looked in the direction of Mito Ik.u.mi and had to admit that this girl was quite wild, but his thought was broken when his waist was twisted by Erina. "Ouch! Ouch! It hurts, Erina!"
"Hmph!" Erina snorted and thought that this guy had always thought something bad. Luckily, she could monopolize him today so she could forgive him easily. "It"s not Ik.u.mi?" Ik.u.mi was, after all, her follower, and she also knew about Ik.u.mi"s ability, but when she saw Haru"s expression, she knew that it shouldn"t be Ik.u.mi, which surprised her a lot.
"No, she isn"t the one." Haru shook his head and had to admit that the girls" level on this venue was quite high, especially Ik.u.mi Mito and Ryouko Sakaki, but he knew that it wasn"t the time to think about a messy thing. "If I have to say, then it is that guy with a mohawk, braid-like hairstyle?"
"What?"
Erina was dumbfounded and looked in the direction where Haru told her before she saw a huge guy with a punk-like style, which made her raised her eyebrow. She thought for a moment and said, "Is he Subaru Mimasaka?" Her memory was good, so even though she didn"t know much about Mimasaka, she still knew about his name. As for the rest, she didn"t know much, but it was normal since she had never particularly shown interest in one of the students or something since her goal was bigger than that. In her eyes, if there was a talented student, then it was all good since that way, the name of Tootsuki could be better, and she could also help Haru since she knew that he was about to enter the hotel industry.
"That should be his name if I remember well," Haru said. Erina gave Haru all the partic.i.p.ant forms for the Autumn Election, so it was normal for him to know about Mimasaka.
"What"s so special about him?" Erina asked. She didn"t have a doubt about Haru"s words since she knew how amazing she was. Still, when she thought about the opponents that Alice and Hisako might face, she felt a bit worried about them, but then she shook her head and decided to believe them.
"It should be a copy," Haru said.
"Copy?" Erina raised her eyebrows and didn"t see anything special about it.
"Don"t underestimate him. Have you ever heard a sentence?"
"What sentence?"
"Observe, copy, and improve." Haru looked at Erina and said, "Didn"t you also learn from someone when you studied cooking in the first place?"
"............"
Erina was in a daze and thought that Mimasaka might be more dangerous than she had thought.
Still, Mimasaka had a bad stalking hobby, but of course, that only worked on someone like Souma or other normal students. As for someone like Erina, it wouldn"t be weird if Mimasaka was killed before Mimasaka was able to stalk Erina since Erina had a lot of bodyguards.
Then as expected, with the end of the preliminary round on Block A, the four partic.i.p.ants that were chosen were Hayama, Kurokiba, Yukihira, and Mimasaka, which made Erina look at Haru with a dumbfounded expression and amazement, thinking that her lover was too amazing, right?
---
"Mooo.... where are Haru and Erina?!" Alice was annoyed.
"Calm down, Alice-sama," Hisako said with a sigh, feeling tired when she stood next to Alice.
After the end of the preliminary round, Alice and Hisako waited at venue B for Haru and Erina since they knew that Haru and Erina were watching them. They also wanted to meet them after the end of the election, but they didn"t expect that Haru and Erina would be nowhere to be seen. When they were waiting for a while, they saw two people that became the center of attention directly.
"Alice! Hisako!"
Hisako and Alice looked in Haru"s direction, but not only the two of them but some of the students who hadn"t left also looked in his direction.
"Hisako, let"s talk," Erina suddenly said.
"Huh?" Hisako couldn"t react, and she was brought by Erina somewhere, leaving both Alice and Haru alone.
Haru and Alice looked at each other, and Alice looked away in a blush.
"Alice."
As his voice fell, the leaves fluttered because of the wind, and the orange sky seemed to be brighter for some reason.
"Wh - What?" Alice was wondering whether this guy would confess to her.
"Do you want to learn under me?" Haru asked.
"...What?"
Alice had thought that she would be confessed, but she didn"t expect that it would be like this.
