Thump~

In the cooking class, Ibuki Tamao broke the eggs in his hand into a stainless steel basin, and then skillfully separated the egg white and yolk parts.

After the egg white part was completely separated into another stainless steel basin, Ibuki Tamao picked up an egg again and repeated the previous operation.

It wasn't until five eggs were poured into the basin that Ibuki Tamao stopped what he was doing. He held a stainless steel basin filled with egg yolks and egg whites in both hands. He looked at Kobayashi Reiko with a flat face and asked:

"Xiaolin-san, do you want to stir the egg yolk or the egg white?"

"Then I'll choose egg white..."

Xiaolin Lingzi replied with a smile. She was about to reach out and take the stainless steel basin in front of her. At this moment, a current seemed to pass through her mind, causing her movements to freeze. She immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Wait a minute, is Ibuki-san really just asking me whether I want to stir the egg yolks or the egg whites, or do you want to reveal some information to me through this question?"

Considering that she is the most marginalized person in this group, and considering that the three people in front of her have an unusually complicated relationship, Kobayashi Reiko, who has always been delicate and thoughtful, couldn't believe that this was just an ordinary question, and began to try to interpret it.

The underlying message contained in Ibuki Tamao's words.

"First of all, we can analyze it from the two words egg yolk and egg white. The yolk is the innermost part of the entire egg. It might as well mean that it is a habit of closing one's heart and preferring to play with others.

Utsunomiya-san walks alone."

"The egg white, as the part surrounding the egg yolk, represents Ibuki-san who is tolerant of everything and will not easily show off his anger at the mistakes made by others."

"With this meaning, Ibuki-san was asking me to choose whether to stir egg yolks or egg whites, but in fact, she was using this question to force me to be involved in the love battle between her and Utsunomiya-san.

Stand in line in advance.”

"I really didn't expect that such a seemingly simple sentence from Ibuki-kun could have such a huge amount of information hidden behind it."

After clarifying the series of logic behind this sentence, Kobayashi Reiko was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat. At the same time, she was secretly glad that she did not fall into the trap of the other party's words.

"Ibuki-san, I suddenly feel that this kind of job of mixing egg liquid is not suitable for a clumsy person like me. I'd better let you do it. I will help you choose a suitable mold later."

Retracting her right hand to touch the edge of the basin, Kobayashi Lingzi hurriedly waved her hand and said with a smile.

"Come on, give me the yolk part."

At this time, Utsunomiya Miu took the initiative to take over the task of stirring the egg liquid, and made a begging gesture to Ibuki Tamao with her smooth white hands.

However, Ibuki Tamao did not take out the stainless steel basin immediately. Instead, he hesitated for a moment, then turned to Kiritani Tetsuya and asked:

"Kiritani-san, are you interested in the job of stirring egg liquid?"

"Since Utsunomiya-san has taken the initiative to take over this job, I should be responsible for other things."

Faced with Ibuki Tamao's question, Kiritani Tetsuya refused with a smile.

Ibuki Tamao, who was holding two stainless steel basins, saw that the two people in the group were not very interested in the task of stirring egg liquid, so he had to hand the basin with egg yolks in his hand to Utsunomiya Miu, who had been begging for a long time.

It is the part responsible for stirring the egg whites.

Naturally, all these details were seen by Kobayashi Reiko who was standing in the corner and observing secretly, which made her even more certain that the relationship between the two most beautiful girls in the school was not harmonious.

So under this simple division of labor, the four people began to make the cake in an orderly manner.

It's just a division of labor, but in the early stage, Miu Utsunomiya and Tamao Ibuki were basically the ones doing the work.

Among the two people, Ibuki Tamao seemed to have experience in making cakes. The whole operation process was very smooth. After adding an appropriate amount of sugar to the egg whites, he picked up the egg beater on hand and made a zigzag shape on the mixture in the basin.

Stir.

After a while, the egg white that was originally almost watery gradually became fluffy, like a freshly baked egg white.

In comparison, Utsunomiya Miu's progress in processing the yolk part was much slower.

"Utsunomiya-kun, why do I think you added too much milk?"

Seeing that Utsunomiya Miu was still adding milk to the egg yolks, Tetsuya Kiritani, who was responsible for checking the mixing work of the two, reminded him tactfully.

"Oh? Kiritani-san, are you accusing me?"

At this time, Utsunomiya Miu, who had just finished pouring a bottle of carton-style packaged milk, winked her eyebrows and looked at Kiritani Tetsuya who was standing next to her and said.

"No, I just think it would be better to add an appropriate amount of milk and cooking oil to it at the same time."

Tetsuya Kiritani expressed his opinions based on the content of the production tutorial.

"But I've already added so much milk first. If I add cooking oil now, I'm afraid it will be too much."

Utsunomiya Miu's slender and white hands shook the milk carton that she had poured out.

"It seems that Utsunomiya-san is completely unwilling to adopt my opinion, so let's let others evaluate it and see whose approach is more reasonable?"

Kiritani Tetsuya saw that he could not convince Utsunomiya Miu, so he could only give up angrily and called over to Kobayashi Reiko who was standing in the corner almost the whole time.

"Kobayashi-san, tell me who is more reasonable in what Utsunomiya-san and I just said?"

"Well, I think..."

Kobayashi Reiko, who was called over by Kiritani Tetsuya, had obviously heard the conversation between the two and was about to express her opinion. However, when the words reached her mouth, she suddenly choked in her throat, and a premonition emerged in her heart.

out.

"No, according to Ibuki-san's method of asking Lingzi before, the two of them at this moment don't really want to ask how to make the cake delicious. Lingzi feels that there is a deeper meaning in it."

Thinking of this, Xiaolin Lingzi's brain began to spin rapidly again.

In her opinion, Kiritani Tetsuya's last sentence should have compared himself to a basin with egg yolks, and compared Utsunomiya Miu and Ibuki Tamao to milk and cooking oil respectively, and then cleverly added an appropriate amount of milk to the egg yolks.

and cooking oil to show that I don’t want to reject any girl’s ideas.

What Utsunomiya Miu said later was a ruthless counterattack against Kiritani Tetsuya's view of love. The word "first" specifically mentioned the issue of order, as if he was specifically emphasizing that he was the one who came first.

If Tamao Ibuki is added, Kiritani Tetsuya's body may be overwhelmed.

"To sum up, Kiritani-san is pretending to be asking Reiko for my opinion on egg yolk mixing, but secretly he is asking himself which view of love he supports more. No matter which answer I give now, it will easily offend one of the parties.

.”

"Sure enough, I should be more careful in this kind of Shura field of love."

After thinking through the underlying meaning of the conversation just now, Kobayashi Lingzi's body that had just moved forward immediately retreated back, and abruptly stopped what she was about to say a second ago.

"Kiritani-san, let me go and get some suitable molds for you first. If I get there late, it will be too late."

After saying this, Kobayashi Reiko left the cooking table in the blink of an eye, leaving only Kiritani Tetsuya and Utsunomiya Miu standing there with doubts on their faces.

"Utsunomiya-san, don't you think the classmates in your class are a little weird?"

"I think she must have been frightened by the bad rumors about Kiritani-san. After all, not every girl has the courage like me to have a long conversation with Kiritani-san casually."

Utsunomiya Miu did not forget to tease when adding low-gluten flour to the egg yolks.

"I just thought you were complimenting me."
