Death's Dimensional Journey

Of course, it wasn't just Ichigo who felt strange now, but also Ran Lan, who came out of the kitchen after hearing the movement.

"Lan Lan, is there a guest here?" Looking at Lan Lan who came out of the kitchen, Ichigo asked the next moment.

"...No way? My restaurant hasn't opened yet, how could there be customers coming?" Lan Lan then shook her head slightly and replied to Ichigo.

"Anyway, I'll open the door first to see what's going on." Indeed, as Lan Lan said, generally no customer will come to a restaurant that is not yet open, unless he is special about the dishes made by the restaurant. linger.However, no matter who is knocking on the front door of the restaurant right now, it is better to go open the door first to confirm the situation.Therefore, the next moment, after saying such a sentence to Lan Lan, Ichigo put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand and stood up.

……

After a moment.

When he came to the front door of the restaurant, the next second, after opening the door, Ichigo saw a burly middle-aged uncle wearing a plaid shirt appeared in his sight.

The hair, eyebrows and beard are golden, and the complexion is a healthy wheatish shade.Looking at the middle-aged uncle in front of him, Ichigo didn't speak for a while.

At this moment, Ichigo can recognize that this middle-aged uncle is the current president of IGO: Yilong!

"Why, this is a restaurant, isn't it? Don't you invite me, a guest, to sit in?" Standing in front of Ichigo, the casually dressed and ordinary Yilong didn't mention his identity as the IGO president. , he just asked Ichigo with a smile on his face.

However, even if Yilong did not deliberately mention his identity as the president of IGO, based on the status and prestige of the organization in the human world, the president of IGO must basically be known to everyone.For example, Lan Lan, when she saw Yilong standing outside the restaurant, she was stunned for a moment, and then she said in surprise, "...You, shouldn't you be the president of IGO?"

"...Haha, it's the old man who is right." Yilong smiled heartily when Lan Lan's voice fell.

"...As the president of IGO, what are you doing here?" Since I just went to the Eighth Courtyard under the jurisdiction of IGO to pick up rainbow fruits with Ichigo yesterday, Yilong, who is the president of IGO, is here today, so, Lan Lan, who had reason to think that Yilong was definitely here to hold him accountable, immediately asked with some vigilance.

"What? As a diner, do I have to give a reason to come to the restaurant?" However, what surprised Lan Lan was that Yilong didn't even mention the rainbow fruit. It's just that he said such words while laughing.

"Lanlan, let him in." For a while, Lanlan didn't know what to do because of Yilong's attitude.It was at this time that Lan Lan didn't know how to entertain the IGO president, and Ichigo said, "Since the restaurant has opened, there is no reason to refuse diners who come to the door on purpose."

Saying that, Ichigo no longer continued to stand at the front door to block Ichiryu from the outside.The next moment, Ichigo, who walked into the restaurant, took a booklet from the counter and handed it to Yilong who walked into the restaurant: "This is the menu."

"Oh, thank you." Taking the menu from the handguard and thanking him, Yilong casually chose a seat by the window and sat down, then bent his arms against the dining table and began to look at the items in his hand. menu.

……

After a few minutes.

After carefully flipping through the menu in his hand, Yilong finally ordered four dishes and one soup.However, after Yilong finished ordering, Ichigo suddenly stopped Lan Lan who wanted to cook in the kitchen, and then looked at Yilong with a half-smiling smile: "Is it just four dishes and one soup? I don't plan to try it. See the newly added dishes in our restaurant?"

"Oh? New dishes?" Hearing that Ichigo said there were new dishes, Yilong immediately said "oh" with interest, "What is it? Let's hear it."

"Dessert made from rainbow fruit." Ichigo then replied to Ichiryu with his usual expression.

"...Rainbow fruit? That's a rare ingredient, do you still have stock in your store?" Hearing that Ichigo took the initiative to mention the rainbow fruit, Yilong said after a moment of silence.

"I don't have it in stock, but I can pick it up anytime. It's a pity that I missed yesterday, and the taste of the rainbow fruit should have been greatly reduced." Standing next to Ichiryu sitting at the dining table, Ichigo then said truthfully, "Because The rainbow fruit was just ripe yesterday and it was exactly [-]% delicious, so that was the perfect time to pick the rainbow fruit.”

"It seems that you have a good grasp of when the rainbow fruit ripens." After listening to Ichigo's explanation, he smiled slightly, and then Yilong touched his chin and said, "No wonder you chose to enter the first place yesterday. Eight courtyards pick rainbow fruits."

"Well, I only picked two of them. Presumably, as the president of IGO, you shouldn't be so fussy about it, right?" He intended to lead the topic directly to the rainbow fruit, so Ichigo didn't evade any further. Meaning, said bluntly.

"Of course, good ingredients should be shared by everyone in order to highlight their deliciousness." As for Yilong, he obviously didn't want to blame Ichigo now, and then he just said such words, "Actually, this time, I'm not here for the rainbow fruit, so you don't need to take precautions against me."

Saying that, Yilong showed his signature hearty smile towards Yihu and Lanlan again.

"Then, let's talk about it, what are you here for this time?" Since Yilong didn't come for the rainbow fruit, Ichigo stopped talking about the rainbow fruit.The next second, Ichigo said straight to the point, "This restaurant in Lanlan is usually closed, so I think you're not here purely for dining, right?" ..

Chapter 1368 The goal, the meat of gems (below)

He didn't pretend to say that he really came only for the meal, Yilong didn't beat around the bush at all, and nodded his head very frankly: "That's right, I did come for another purpose. I'm ashamed, as a diner, the motive of this old man coming to the restaurant is not simply for the meal."

"However, I want to have a taste of this little girl's craftsmanship, which is absolutely true." Immediately afterwards, Yilong changed the conversation, "After all, this little girl can partner with you who are very skilled. , presumably her cooking skills must be extraordinary."

At this time, hearing Yilong complimented him on his extraordinary skills, Ichigo didn't show any complacent appearance because of it, and he still had a calm look.Right now, Ichigo understands that Yilong should have accepted his strength because he successfully entered the eighth area yesterday and picked up the rainbow fruit.

"Then, without further ado, this old man is going to get straight to the point." After that, he realized that he no longer needs to say some irrelevant words, and then Yilong said straight to the topic, "Actually, the old man is here this time. The main purpose is to invite you to join the IGO."

"...Want me to join the IGO?" To be honest, Ichigo had thought before that Yilong, who is the president of IGO, might come to ask for guilt. After all, he picked the rainbow fruit that IGO had worked so hard to cultivate.However, what Ichigo did not expect was that Yilong would make a special trip to invite him to join the IGO.So, Ichigo, who didn't expect things to develop to this point, was stunned for a moment, and then asked Yilong with a slight frown.

"Yes, IGO needs people like you to join." Yilong then nodded affirmatively towards Ichigo again, "If you join IGO, you can taste all kinds of ingredients artificially cultivated by IGO at any time. But correspondingly, you need to come forward and capture some wild ingredients for IGO at some point.”

"You mean we can benefit each other?" After listening to Yilong's words, Ichigo now understands very clearly the motive of Yilong wanting to join the IGO.The next moment, Ichigo said bluntly, "If that's the case, we can cooperate with each other. To be honest, I'm used to being alone for a long time, so I don't want to be restricted by joining a certain organization. free."

"Maybe you would say that IGO does not restrict my freedom." Immediately after that, before Yilong, who wanted to say something because he refused to join the IGO, said something, Ichigo changed the subject again, " However, even so, I will not choose to join the IGO. The most I can promise is to cooperate with your IGO. In the future, I can share some of the ingredients I capture with your IGO, but the corresponding, as long as it is owned by your IGO. The ingredients, no matter how advanced, have to be used by me."

"Of course, your IGOs ​​can tell me all the information about the target you want to capture at any time, and when I go to capture the ingredients, I will give some to your IGOs." At the end, Ichigo paused again. , added.

"It is clear that joining an IGO is a mutually beneficial choice, but have you rejected it?" He had been sitting quietly at the dining table as an audience member. After Ichihu had finished speaking, Yilong smiled and shook his head. He shook his head and said, "Well, since you don't want to join IGO, the old man won't force you. But at least, as you said, we can still establish a basic cooperative relationship."

"In that case, is there any good quality target ingredients next? Tell me the information about the ingredients, and I'll go catch them right away." Seeing that Yilong had agreed to cooperate, Ichigo didn't say anything more. He just smiled and said, "Correspondingly, after I capture the target ingredients, let me go to your IGO headquarters to see if I can pick some ingredients from your IGOs. To be honest, yesterday's rainbow fruit, the taste not bad."

Right now, for Ichigo, cooperation with IGO is beneficial and harmless.Because this way, with the detailed information provided by IGO, Ichigo can save himself the time to find the ingredients.In addition, Ichigo can also get artificially cultivated ingredients similar to rainbow fruits provided by IGO for free, so it can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

In the future, Ichigo will have to share some of the ingredients he caught with IGO, but it doesn't matter at all.Anyway, according to Ichigo's understanding of the anime "Captive of Food", most of the ingredients caught in this world can be cooked into food for dozens of people, so only Ichigo and Lan Lan can't finish it. Even if you give some to IGO, it's just a favor.

"Haha, are you ready to catch the ingredients so soon? It seems that you are still impatient." At the same time, seeing that Ichigo was already asking him for information about the target ingredients, Yilong immediately laughed. , "But this is exactly what I want. To be honest, IGO just has good quality ingredients that need to be caught recently. Originally, the old man planned to hand over the relevant tasks to the Four Heavenly Kings of Food to complete, but since you are willing to catch, then the old man is now Just tell you the information about the target ingredients.”

After speaking, Yilong immediately said the information related to the target ingredient: "The ingredient to be caught is called the meat of the gem, and it is hidden in the body of the Ligaru mammoth that uses the "Imperial Plateau" as a habitat. Supreme meat."

"...Gem meat?" Ichigo, who had a clear memory of this ingredient in his mind, heard the words "jewel meat" mentioned in Yilong's mouth, and then nodded his understanding, "Okay, I understand. Now, tell me the exact location of the habitat of the target Ligaru Mammoth."

……

After a few minutes.

It took about ten minutes, and Yilong has now provided all the information related to the Ligaru Mammoth to Ichigo.

"I already understand the general situation. However, you have disclosed to me all the detailed information related to the target ingredients. Aren't you afraid that I will swallow the meat of the gem?" After listening to Yilong's explanation about " Ichigo then asked Yilong with a half-smiling, half-smile. ..
