After thinking about it, Yushan Kazuto tidied up the refrigerator a little, placed the chocolate at the deepest part, and covered it with other ingredients.
Although the weather is cold now, Yushan's house has floor heating, and the temperature in the room is basically maintained at around 25 degrees. This temperature is enough to soften the chocolate, so it is better to store it in the refrigerator.
The reason why he hid the chocolate was mainly because he was worried that it would be seen by Tsuchima and cause misunderstanding. The chocolate given by Yukinoshita Yukino was easy to explain, but the chocolate given to him by Yuuki Asuna was a little difficult to explain.
"Scumbag senior?" Doma Mai suddenly poked her head into the kitchen.
"Huh? What are you doing?" Yushan Heren was startled and quickly closed the refrigerator door.
"What are we having for dinner?" Tsuchima asked calmly.
The chocolates she made were in the refrigerator, and she didn't want to be discovered by Yushan Kazuto.
It was hidden very well, so there was no need to worry. However, since Yushan and others opened the refrigerator door and looked at it for so long, Tsuchima Mei couldn't help but become worried.
"Just eat something. I bought a piece of beef brisket the day before yesterday and haven't finished it yet. How about some beef stewed with potatoes?" Yushan Heren said with a wink.
"It needs to be stewed softer!" Domama responded immediately.
Yushan Kazuto nodded with a smile, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Tsuchiya Mai retract her head.
Doma Mai was standing at the kitchen door, hovering, glancing at Yushan Kazuto from time to time. Only after she noticed that Yushan Kazuto had indeed started cooking did she feel relieved.
[The scumbag senior was thinking about doing
What dish? 】
Back in the living room, Tsuchiya couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
[That should be the case, but does it take so long to think about beef stew with potatoes? ]
Tsuchiya blinked slightly.
After dinner, Yushan Kazuto returned to the room, while Doma Mai walked into the kitchen and began to check carefully.
[There's nothing wrong with the chocolate, the scumbag senior probably didn't notice. ]
Seeing that the place where she hid the chocolate had not been moved by Yushan and others, Domama Mai breathed a sigh of relief, took out her mobile phone and checked the memo she had made.
[There are only two types of chocolate left. Let's finish them all at once tonight. I hope I won't fail again. ]
According to Doma's original plan, everything should have been completed yesterday, but Doma was learning to make chocolate for the first time, so she was not yet proficient and failed many times.
Even though she worked overtime last night, Tsuchiya Mai still couldn't finish it. There were only two more complicated chocolates left, so she could only make them tonight.
Tsuchima washed her hands and rubbed her little face gently, her eyes determined.
After making chocolate so many times, Doma Mai has become very familiar with it. Although Doma Mai's talent in cooking is a little lacking, it can be improved through repeated training.
After putting the chocolate into a special kitchen container for melting in water, Doma Mai started to get busy.
Chapter 978: Tujianma's unexpected discovery
"Dried roses, dried roses."
Doma was anxiously searching in front of the refrigerator.
Originally, she wanted to make rose-shaped chocolates, but when she bought the chocolate molds that day, she did not buy the rose-shaped mold.
In addition, rose-shaped chocolates are difficult to remove from the mold, so what Doma Mai wants to make now is just chocolate with rose petals added.
But there were freeze-dried rose petals in the refrigerator, but when I looked for them now, I couldn't find some of them.
"it's here!"
Doma Mai finally found the rose petals, took them out with some joy, picked out a few roses with smaller petals but more complete shapes, put them into the chocolate, and began to stir it.
Only after all the chocolate was poured into the mold did Doma Mai put away the dried roses and put them in the refrigerator.
Suddenly, a small box deep inside caught Tsuchiya's attention.
Tsuchiya blinked slightly, wondering why the small box was hidden in such a deep place. She reached out and took out the small box, only to find another small box hidden next to it.
【What's this? 】
Tsuchiya blinked softly.
The two small boxes look very different in appearance, one is a typical handmade work, and the other is a perfect craft, but Tsuchima has a vague feeling that the contents of the two small boxes may be the same thing.
Doma Mai looked at the kitchen door vigilantly, and after making sure that Yushan and the others were not outside, she opened the two small boxes slightly.
Even though the small box had been put in the refrigerator for a while, after opening it, one could still smell a rich chocolate aroma. Domama's guess was correct, the two small boxes were filled with chocolate.
Tsuchiya Mai suddenly curled her lips, with an unhappy expression.
I had originally planned to be the first person to give chocolate to Yushan and others, but I didn't expect that I had already been overtaken by two people.
She could roughly guess who gave the chocolates in the craft box. It should be that Yukinoshita Yukino gave them to him when Yuyama Kazuto was sending her downstairs.
However, Doma Mai was not sure who gave the handmade box to Yushan Kazuto.
[Sanae? I don't think Sanae would make this kind of handmade wooden box. ]
[Rikka? Rikka shouldn't have time to make chocolates. She's been studying every day during this period.]
[Could it be Ginko? Based on Ginko's personality, it shouldn't be her? And even if Ginko gave chocolate to the scumbag senior, it would be in the style of shogi. ]
[Who gave this box of chocolates to the scumbag senior? ]
Tsuchiya couldn't guess for sure, she only knew that she had been beaten to it.
It was still barely acceptable that Yukinoshita Yukino got there first, after all, Yukinoshita Yukino was going back to Chiba today and it was impossible for her to come to Tokyo on Monday.
But there was someone who acted faster than her, which made Tsuchima feel very unhappy.
[The damn scumbag senior said he met Orange Alex. Could it be that he was secretly meeting someone? ]
Doma Mai put the chocolate back to its original place and put the dried roses in it, restoring it to its original appearance.
Although she was very unhappy, she had no reason to go to Yushan to settle the score, so she could only sulk alone.
[Now that you're back, you won't sneak out again at night, right? ]
Tsuchima Mai blinked slightly, Yushan Kazuto had a criminal record.
Although Yushan Kazuto came back quickly that time and gave a suitable reason, Doma Mai still remembered it.
[No, we can't let that scumbag senior slip away tonight! ]
Tsuchiya snorted softly.
Regardless of whether Yushan Heren planned to go out quietly tonight, she didn't want Yushan Heren to go out.
[But, the matter of Orange Alex seems to have some substance. ]
Doma Mai fell into deep thought. If Hayama Kazuto had not met Tachibana Alex, how did he know his name?
What she didn't know was that as early as in the supermarket, Yushan Kazuto had already looked up all the information about Tachibana Alex.
After Hui-chan controlled the supermarket's camera and scanned Tachibana Alex's face, all the information was transmitted to Yushan Kazuto's ears through the Bluetooth headset.
Tsuchima Mai didn't know that this time when Hayama Kazuto came back, he not only went to see Yuuki Asuna, but also to see Tachibana Alex. Therefore, Hayama Kazuto's words seemed so true.
[Hmph, never mind that. Anyway, just don’t let the scumbag senior go out tonight. ]
Doma Mai puffed her cheeks slightly, and suddenly remembered that she seemed to be still making chocolate, so she hurried back to the tray of chocolate.
The chocolate had cooled down naturally, so Doma picked up the tray and put it into the refrigerator.
Rose chocolate is the last type of chocolate she prepared. Once the rose chocolate has cooled down and been successfully demoulded, it’s done!
Doma Mai blinked slightly and lay down on the sofa. Although she might not be the first person to give chocolate to Yushan Kazuto, she could still strive to be the most thoughtful person.
Thinking of this, Tsuchima couldn't help but curse in her heart.
【Scumbag senior.】
Although I knew it was impossible for Yushan Kazuto to receive only one piece of chocolate, it was a bit exaggerated that he had received two before Valentine's Day even arrived.
[On Monday night, I want to see how many chocolates the scumbag senior can receive. ]
Tujian buried his heart.
……
"Senior Yushan, thank you very much for your help. The information you gave me is very useful!"
Looking at the message sent by Ebina Nana, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but blink. It's been a week since he sent the message, and it's only started being used now?
"How is it? How difficult is the question?"
After thinking about it, Hayama Kazuto asked, maybe Ebina Nana is busy with her studies?
He didn't know that the internet connection at Ebina Nana's house was so bad that it took him several days to download all the information.
"It's a little difficult, but I'll try my best." Ebina Nana replied.
"That's good. If you have any questions, you can ask me. Of course, I can't guarantee an immediate reply." Yushan Heren smiled and said.
"I'm so sorry." Nana Ebina replied with a blushing face.
"Excuse me, but did you input it by voice?" Yushan Kazuto asked.
Stuttering when sending a message? Maybe it's voice-to-text conversion?
"No, I typed it myself and my hands were shaking a little," explained Nana Ebina.
"Uh..." Yushan Kazuto fell into deep thought.
Her hands shake even when she types. How shy is this junior school girl Ebina?
"I think if there's something you don't understand, you should just search it online. I guess the time you spend preparing yourself mentally before sending the message is enough to search for the answer online." Yushan Kazuto replied.
Is Chapter 979 that good?
"success!"
Looking at the successful rose chocolate, Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but shout excitedly!
For each type of chocolate, Doma wanted to use a different shape. The previous chocolate had already picked out all the other shapes, so the rose chocolate could only be made into the shape of a peach.
But as Yushan Kazuto said, the stem of the peach is too easy to break. He had never been successful in removing the peach from the mold before.
It was a little tight when it was being demoulded, and Doma thought it was going to break, but unexpectedly, it was successful in the end!
Carefully wrap the peach-shaped chocolate with tin foil and put it back in the refrigerator, then demould the remaining rose chocolates one by one.
Some of these chocolates were successful, some were not, but for Tsuchima, success or failure no longer mattered much.
The friendship chocolates that had been accumulated were enough to give away. Doma Mai herself didn't have many friends. Although she was popular in school, the only three people who could be considered her real friends were Sanae Touma, Rikka Takanashi, and Demi Hatashi.
The other person she wanted to give friendship chocolates to was Asuna Yuuki, but she didn't know where Asuna Yuuki lived. She had hinted about it in SAO before, but Asuna Yuuki didn't tell her, so she naturally had no way to give chocolates to her.
As for Shirasaki Hana, she is still in Tama, and it is impossible for Doma Yui to send the chocolate to Tama.
The successful chocolate got a nice tin foil outfit, while the unsuccessful chocolate could only be put into a large bowl with many compartments.
There were already many compartments in the bowl occupied with failed chocolates.
After serving, Doma took out a diamond-shaped chocolate that was broken into two halves and put it in her mouth.
The fresh scent of roses and the rich aroma of chocolate were intertwined together, like an elegant love poem, and Tsuchiya couldn't help but be intoxicated while eating it.
[Do you want to give some to the scumbag senior to try? ]
An idea suddenly popped up in Tsuchiya's mind, but she immediately gave up the idea.
[The scumbag senior secretly received two chocolates. I won’t give you any of Komari’s chocolates! ]
As she walked out of the kitchen, Doma Mai felt tired. She had gone to bed late yesterday and got up especially early today.
Although Doma Mai managed to catch up on some sleep after Yushan and others went out, she didn't sleep for long.
After all, in front of Sanae Touma and Rikka Takanashi, Doma Yui still has to disguise herself a little.
Although, Sanae Touma has already known the true identity of Yui Doma, Rikka Takanashi doesn't know it!
Domama shook her head, and after she became a little more sober, she walked towards the room.
Once the tiredness came over her, there was no way to stop it, but Tsuchima Mai still forced herself to suppress the sleepiness, tidied her clothes and went into the bathroom.
……
In the room, Yushan Kazuto was still checking the data that Hui-chan had sorted out today, but the door had been pushed open, and Doma walked in, rubbing his sleepy eyes, holding NervGear.
