Chapter 1860: The Swift-Blade Goddess Chef

~7 min read 1,397 words

The girl had a petite figure, yet she carried a knife case on her back; everyone who came today was a chef, an expert, and they were all too familiar with this type of knife case.

Inside were all kinds of carving tools, the full set weighing at least fifty or sixty jin, yet this girl walked with a light step as if she were carrying an empty box.

Her workstation was number twenty-eight; she handed her entry card to the staff, arrived at her workstation, and set down her knives.

This was the time for preparation work, but she scanned left and right, then said fiercely: "What are you looking at? Never seen a female chef before?"

The girl looked fierce, but she didn't scare anyone at all!

It wasn't that there were no women in the chef industry, but it was still a profession with more men than women.

In a place with many men, seeing a pretty young girl, everyone would involuntarily take a few extra looks, which was a very normal thing, but because they were fiercely rebuked by the young girl, some people lost face.

Someone said with ill intent: "Seen one, seen a female chef, but never seen one as good-looking as you. Little beauty, do you have a boyfriend? Do you think your big brother will do?"

Once someone started it, others joined in the heckling.

"Beauty, consider me too, I really know how to cherish people..."

"Look at big brother, big brother is over here!"

Some even whistled.

This was just for the sake of running their mouths; if the girl ignored them, saying a few words would be the end of it.

But the person at the workstation next to the girl reached out his claws with ill intent...

"Ah!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

After one miserable scream, several more followed in succession.

The man held his hand before his eyes, staring at it in disbelief, and in an instant, miserable screams came one after another.

His hand was covered in blood, but he didn't know how it happened.

"Send him to the hospital, hurry and send him to the hospital."

"Someone come here."

The Security Guard hurried over and took the man away; after a flurry of activity, the competition area finally returned to normal.

The way people looked at that girl just now was different too.

"It was her who cut him."

"Did you see her make a move?"

"No, but I saw Old Liu reach his hand over..."

"What does that prove? With so many people staring, no one saw what happened; be careful, if you guess wildly, she might sue you for defamation..."

The person who said they saw it grew anxious: "Does she even need defamation? You guys haven't seen just how fast she is when she makes a move."

The chef surnamed Liu from just now didn't actually go to the hospital, because the bleeding stopped before he could even get there.

Once it stopped bleeding, he discovered that a peach blossom had been carved into his palm, carved on in an instant.

The movement was so fast that the people around didn't even see the girl make a move before it was finished.

This incident was quickly passed to the judge's area, and everyone was in an uproar.

"Heavens, is this knife skill too fast? It's like something written in a wuxia novel." In reality, no one had ever seen this kind of skill, and they couldn't help but be full of curiosity about the girl.

Zichen first asked Li Dashao: "Big brother, have you heard of this person? How come I've never heard of her?"

The girl was a new face, and one could be certain that she had definitely never participated in a competition like this before.

With skill like this, if she had participated in a competition, she would have become famous in one battle; there was no reason he wouldn't know!

Li Dashao shook his head: "I haven't heard of her either."

Zichen was puzzled: "Could it be self-taught?"

A natural talent?

Everyone was discussing that girl; no one had ever heard of such a person!

They were all veterans in the chef industry; logically, there shouldn't be any strange experts they didn't know about!

But not a single person had heard of this girl's skill.

She became the focus of the entire venue; before the competition had even started, she was already the focus.

The contestant at number twenty-seven had suffered a loss and naturally refused to let it go; he wanted to call the police to have the girl arrested and charge her with intentional injury.

The girl wasn't afraid in the slightest; go ahead and charge her; once the police arrived, it wasn't certain who would be taken away.

The police arrived.

They arrived very quickly.

After arriving, they asked about the sequence of events and then gave the man surnamed Liu a lecture.

"You, a grown man, reaching out with a lecherous hand, and you have the nerve to call the police? You've lost all shame, haven't you?"

"She doesn't count as intentional injury, it doesn't even count as self-defense; we suspect you carved the peach blossom on your own hand to frame her. You say she cut you and carved a pattern in less than a second—who would believe that?"

"Do you take us police for fools, thinking whatever you say goes? I'm telling you, this is a waste of public resources; now, tell us about your lecherous hand..."

This man tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice; he had a mouth full of excuses but couldn't explain himself.

After all, under the eyes of the public, no one had truly seen how the girl made her move; her knife case hadn't even been opened.

Just when everyone thought this person would have to suffer in silence like Yaba eating coptis, no one expected the girl to admit it herself.

"That's right, the peach blossom on his claw was carved by me. Who told him to be dishonest and harbor evil intentions? This is the price."

Police:...

The one surnamed Liu perked up: "Officer, look, she admitted it! She admitted it herself! Hurry and take her away, she's guilty of intentional injury..."

"Shut up."

The police said to the girl: "If you demonstrate it for us, I'll believe you."

Girl: "No need to demonstrate; I wouldn't lie about something like this."

Although she was the one who did it, the girl was only criticized and educated, and was not taken away.

The reason is simple: although the palm was injured, it was only a scratch, it would not leave a scar, it did not even count as a minor injury, and it did not meet the conditions for detention!

This little interlude ended, and the competition officially began.

The first round was to let everyone complete four dishes on their own within the allotted time; they could make whatever they were best at.

The girl opened her knife case, and everyone gasped!

Good heavens.

In the large knife case, there was only one kitchen knife.

Before the knife case was opened, everyone had assumed there might be many treasures inside, but it turned out there was only one, and it was an old-fashioned kitchen knife that looked particularly heavy.

When Gu Zhihao saw this knife, his expression began to turn very grave!

Zichen noticed his master's change and asked him, "Master, are you alright? Is your heart uncomfortable?"

"It's not that; this person has a significant background."

"Master, do you know her?"

"I know. Don't speak now, just watch."

In the young girl's hands, the heavy kitchen knife instantly became incredibly agile, as if it had been imbued with a soul.

Various vegetables and fruits were carved into all sorts of shapes under the knife, as thin as cicada wings and vivid to the point of realism.

The girl used a winter melon to carve an Old Star of Longevity, which was so lifelike it seemed as if it could come alive at any moment.

Everyone knew that knife carving was the most time-consuming, but the girl finished her four dishes very quickly; she completed them all in less than half the time.
