Chapter 143: Chapter 121 Two Shadows in the Kitchen (Combined)
Haruka Yuzan walked over and glanced at the huge nylon bag, her curiosity piqued, "Is the charcoal that was ordered here?"
"Yeah!" Misaki Saki nodded vigorously, with her large eyes blinking as if she had done something good and was hoping for praise like a little kid,
"The charcoal is here, so we can have a good meal tonight!!!"
At the mention of food, Chiba Shimizu couldn't help but slurp her saliva, and the roast meat at her feet was even more unsightly, flowing right out.
Haruka Yuzan handed the plastic bag she was carrying to Chiba Shimizu standing next to her, now holding four big bags in total, two new additions to her arms. Though not particularly heavy, the accumulated bulk made the girl's slender figure look even more delicate and frail.
Of course, it was just the willowy waist and pale, long legs that elicited sympathy.
It was tough enough supporting the weight of two big light fixtures on a regular day, let alone adding four big bags to the load.
Seeing this, the young girl quickly slurped her saliva too and scurried over with her short legs, taking two of the plastic bags from the young lady's hands,
"Let me help you with some of that, Shimizu."
"Yeah, thanks." Chiba Shimizu nodded, not declining the offer.
"I always tell you to exercise more, now you're wilting, aren't you!"
Haruka Yuzan said with a laugh, then easily lifted the nylon bag, feeling the weight as he swung it in his hand.
But, given the customs of the Island Country, it should have been brought into the yard to begin with... After all, with the exorbitant labor costs, this kind of small task is supposed to be included in employee duties...
"That's not right, didn't you have them bring it inside? Why leave it right at the entrance?"
"Huh?" Hearing this, Misaki Saki raised her cute little face, appearing bullish,
"I thought they looked too tired, and figured it was such a trivial matter that I shouldn't bother them, I could handle it myself..."
Her childlike voice told of the girl's innocent kindness, touching to hear, comforting to the soul...
But,
Looking at the pair, Haruka Yuzan shook his head speechlessly,
"I always tell you to exercise more, but you're all so lazy. If I weren't home one day and something happened, I wouldn't know what the two of you would do!"
"Hey! Talk about roast meat first, it's worse than me!"
Confronted with the boy's lecture, Misaki Saki sold out roast meat mercilessly, reaching out to point at the plump feline body,
"Look at it, sleeping after eating, eating after sleeping, and basking in the sun when bored, living the life of my dreams every day."
"Meow?" Taken aback by the sudden betrayal, roast meat was clearly unprepared, its glossy bean eyes full of surprise, and the shocked expression on its fluffy face.
How can you be so decisive? After all, I am your senior...
"You're not much better than it." Haruka Yuzan retorted, then went into the kitchen to help with the food preparation,
"Rest a bit, and then come to help."
"Okay!"
The little girl lay there gazing at the ceiling, quietly recharging.
...
In the kitchen,
Chiba Shimizu had already taken out all the food they bought and was rinsing it.
Haruka Yuzan washed his hands as well, rolled up his sleeves, and got to work.
Japanese yakitori,
Having purchased many other ingredients, they only prepared one portion of chicken, which was the trickiest part to handle.
It was evident that Haruka Yuzan expertly and meticulously dissected various parts of the chicken: the breast, wings, heart, legs, sinew, and bones...
After disassembling, he placed each part in separate dishes.
