Chapter 444: Dinner Looking for Charcoal Grilled Orugu
"I'm back." Shen Yun pushed the door open and shouted as per local customs.
"Welcome back!" When Tidom heard Shen Yun's voice, he hurriedly ran out of the kitchen and greeted him with a smile.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting. I'll take you out for dinner now." Shen Yun said as he put down the portable testing equipment on his back.
"No, I've already prepared dinner." Tidom shook his head and smiled.
"Hmm?" Shen Yun heard this and looked up at Tidom.
At this time, Tidom, wearing a pink lace apron, was looking at him with a smile.
"Do you know how to use those kitchen utensils? Are you hurt?" Shen Yun asked with concern.
He hadn't taught Tidom how to use modern kitchen utensils, and if he wasn't careful he could get hurt.
"Of course, I learned how to use kitchen utensils from TV. Don't underestimate me." Tidom puffed up his cheeks and said unhappily.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have underestimated Tidom." Shen Yun looked at Tidom's angry expression and apologized with a smile.
"But why did Tidom suddenly think of cooking?" Shen Yun asked curiously.
"I can't always let Shen Jun take care of me." Tidom laughed, quickly came behind Shen Yun, pushed Shen Yun towards the restaurant, and said, "Okay, Shen Jun, go wash your hands, we can eat soon. My cooking skills are very good."
"Really? Then I'll have to look forward to it." Shen Yun teased.
"Hehe, I will never let you down!" Tidom chuckled and said in a naive way.
"By the way, you've been out for so long, is everything okay in the kitchen?" Shen Yun asked, glancing at the kitchen where the range hood was still running.
"Yabai! It's the soup I cooked!" Upon hearing this, Tidom also reacted and ran into the kitchen in a panic.
Looking at Tidom's flustered back, Shen Yun couldn't help laughing and said, "Be careful, don't get burned."
"Got it~" Tidom responded as he opened the lid of the pot, scooped a small spoonful of miso soup from the pot into the saucer to taste the saltiness.
Seeing how relaxed Tidom was, Shen Yun felt relieved and turned to walk towards the bathroom.
Although only two days have passed, this miko from thousands of years ago has completely adapted to modern life.
Tidom drank up the shallow layer of soup in the saucer, then nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Well, the taste is just right! It seems that my cooking skills have not regressed."
After saying that, Tidom picked up the two washed porcelain bowls with blue and white porcelain patterns that were placed aside, scooped up the tofu and seaweed miso soup from the pot, and poured it into the porcelain bowls.
"Oh, I almost forgot." Tidom grabbed a handful of chopped green onions and sprinkled them into two bowls of miso soup.
Snow-white tofu is soaked in the pale white soup, some seaweed is floating in the soup, and a few pieces of green chopped green onions are dotted on the surface of the soup, exuding an enticing aroma.
Tidom took two bowls of miso soup, left the kitchen, and placed them on the dining table.
At this time, Shen Yun also finished washing his hands and walked out of the bathroom.
Seeing Shen Yun coming out of the bathroom, Tidom also smiled and waved to Shen Yun, saying: "Mr. Shen, dinner is ready."
"Coming." Shen Yun also responded with a smile.
When we arrived at the restaurant, we saw several steaming dishes on the table in the middle of the table, which could accommodate seven or eight people without feeling crowded.
Shen Yun took a quick look and saw fried shrimp tempura, steamed egg custard, potato salad, pan-fried salmon, and tofu and kelp miso soup.
This is a typical Japanese dinner, with three dishes, one soup and a salad.
"There aren't many ingredients in the refrigerator, so this is all we can do," said Tidom.
"This is already very sumptuous." Shen Yun pulled out a chair, sat down, and said with a smile.
"I'll go get the rice." Tidom went back to the kitchen, scooped two bowls of rice from the rice cooker, and handed one to Shen Yun.
"Thank you." Shen Yun took it and thanked him.
Tidom sat opposite Shen Yun, put his hands together, held the chopsticks between his thumb and index finger, and said piously: "I'm starting."
Seeing Tidom's actions, Shen Yun silently retracted the chopsticks that had been extended and recited a sentence along with Tidom.
After reading it, Shen Yun picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fried shrimp tempura, and took a light bite.
The crispy and thin batter wraps the firm and chewy shrimp meat. Just one bite and the crispy, fragrant, crunchy, tender and chewy taste with distinct layers spreads on the tip of your tongue.
"Mr. Shen, how does it taste? This is the first time I cook this kind of food." Tidom looked at Shen Yun expectantly and asked.
"Well, it's delicious. Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, not greasy, and the cooking time is well controlled." Shen Yun praised.
"That's great." Tidom also breathed a sigh of relief, and then urged Shen Yun to taste other dishes.
Shen Yun also tasted them one by one, and these dishes also received Shen Yun's praise.
After finishing this simple dinner, Shen Yun took the initiative to clean up the dishes on the table.
Seeing Shen Yun taking the initiative to clean up the dishes, Tidom quickly stood up and advised: "Mr. Shen, just let me do it."
"You prepared dinner, so you shouldn't be asked to do trivial things like washing dishes." Shen Yun said with a smile.
"it does not matter."
"Then, together?" Shen Yun couldn't resist and asked tentatively.
"Okay." Tidom nodded happily.
Shen Yun smiled and cleaned up the kitchen with Tidom.
Tidom rolled up his sleeves energetically, revealing his white wrists, his skin as white as solidified jade.
Shen Yun first cleaned the grease on the bowls and plates with detergent, and then handed the cleaned bowls and plates to Tidom beside him.
Tidom took the plates, bowls and chopsticks handed to him by Shen Yun and began to wash them skillfully.
The drops of water hanging on the jade-like skin make the girl's skin look more tender and crystal clear.
"Mr. Shen, let's cook at home starting tomorrow." Tidom suggested while washing the dishes.
"Cook at home? Okay." Shen Yun agreed without asking any more questions.
"Tidom, do you want to go out for a walk later?" Shen Yun asked.
"walk?"
"Yeah. This area is very lively at night. It will be even more lively during the summer festival." Shen Yun said.
He is not too far from Odaiba Seaside Park in Tokyo.
"Okay." Tidom agreed readily.
After washing the dishes, Shen Yun took Tidom to the nearest Odaiba Seaside Park for a walk.
When they came back from their walk, it was only around eight o'clock.
Seeing that it was still early, Shen Yun pulled Tidom to play games.
Even though it’s still 1999, there are still a lot of games with great gameplay.
For example, Heroes of Might and Magic 3.
Under Shen Yun's deliberate guidance, Tidom also had a lot of fun.
Soon, it was ten o'clock in the evening. Shen Yun looked at the time and urged Tidom to go back and rest.
Tidom had no choice but to leave Shen Yun's room reluctantly and return to his own room to sleep.
Shen Yun took advantage of his free time to look up literature about giant beasts from all over the world.
Time passes slowly, and leisurely days go by one by one.
Shen Yun usually spends his mornings searching for documents from around the world and studying the extracted evil energy. Occasionally, he would take Tidom to the zoo, oceanarium and other places for a visit.
In the afternoon, Shen Yun usually spends time with Tidom watching movies or playing games.
In a blink of an eye, half a month had passed, but except for the doll Orugu that had appeared before, Orugu seemed to have never appeared, and there was no movement.
No matter how patient Shen Yun was, he couldn't wait any longer.
"No! We can't go on like this. We have to find some charcoal to burn Orugu. Please help me."
