Chapter 13 - Chapter 13: Start with washing dishes

Satou looked up. It was the class monitor.

Izayoi Tsuki walked to Satou's desk and asked, "Satou, are you going to work part-time today? If you are, you can come with me."

"Sure."

Satou said. Anyway, he had nothing to do tonight, and earning some money was good.

"Ah, class monitor, are you also going to work part-time today?"

Kaga Aoi asked in surprise.

If she remembered correctly, Izayoi Tsuki's family was very rich, yet she still went to work part-time.

Seemingly sensing Kaga Aoi's confusion, Izayoi Tsuki said, "My ideal is to become an excellent chef in the future, so I train myself."

"Alright, then let's go together."

Satou nodded, then turned to Kaga Aoi and said, "Sorry, Kaga Aoi, I can't go back together after school today."

"It's okay, Satou, you go be busy."

Although Kaga Aoi was a little disappointed, she still smiled understandingly.

After the three of them walked to the school gate, Kaga Aoi waved to Satou and said, "Then, Satou, I'll come to call you to school together tomorrow."

"Okay."

Satou waved back and smiled.

Satou and Izayoi Tsuki walked side by side on the road outside the school gate. Students passing by cast surprised glances.

Izayoi Tsuki was a well-known beauty at Jin Yu Middle School, and now she was walking side by side with a boy, which couldn't help but surprise people.

"Isn't that Izayoi? Why is she walking with a boy?"

"Who is that boy? Do you know?"

"I heard he's Izayoi's classmate. It seems he made a great dish in class today and was invited by Mr. Mita of Kagurazaka-ya."

"No way? That amazing?"

Listening to the faint discussions coming from his ears, Satou remained very calm, but Izayoi Tsuki's face flushed slightly.

"You don't have to pay attention to them."

Satou said.

"Mm."

Izayoi Tsuki nodded, and casually asked, "Satou, I heard you and Kaga Aoi grew up together since childhood?"

"Yes. She and I have been in the same class since kindergarten."

Satou couldn't help but smile knowingly as he thought of that cute, round-faced girl.

"That's truly enviable."

Izayoi Tsuki sighed.

Then, the two took the train and arrived at Kagurazaka-ya.

Although Kagurazaka-ya was located in a bustling urban area, the environment was very quiet and secluded, with many trees planted around it.

The interior decoration was also very elegant. At first glance, it didn't look like a restaurant, but more like a Coffee shop.

It was Satou's first time in such a high-end restaurant, and he couldn't help but look around more.

The waiters inside clearly recognized Izayoi Tsuki. Upon seeing the two, they immediately came forward and said, "Izayoi, are you here to work part-time again?"

Izayoi Tsuki nodded.

The waiter's gaze then turned to Satou and asked, "Is this your classmate?"

"Yes, he was invited by Mr. Mita to intern here."

Izayoi Tsuki said.

The waiter's eyes immediately showed a hint of respect towards Satou.

To be invited for an internship at such a young age, his future prospects were absolutely limitless!

"Oh? Satou, you really came!"

A joyful voice rang out. Mr. Mita walked out of the restaurant lounge, and his eyes lit up when he saw Satou!

"So you plan to work part-time here tonight?"

"Yes."

Satou nodded.

"Alright, I'll pay you your salary after the store closes."

Mr. Mita said.

"Thank you."

Satou quickly thanked him.

"Heh heh, no need."

Mr. Mita smiled and waved his hand.

Afterward, Satou followed Izayoi Tsuki into the kitchen.

The kitchen was very spacious, unlike the dirty back kitchens of typical restaurants; it was very clean and bright.

Inside, several chefs were already busy.

"Yo, Izayoi, are you here for your internship today too?"

A beautiful female chef with wine-red hair, dressed in a spotless white chef's coat, and a fiery figure, greeted Izayoi Tsuki.

"Sister Sakai."

Izayoi Tsuki obediently called out.

Ms. Sakai nodded, then cast her gaze upon Satou, her eyes lighting up. She said with interest, "Is this handsome young man your boyfriend, Izayoi?"

Izayoi Tsuki's usually cool face also showed two blushes, and she softly explained, "No, he is my classmate, and starting today, he is also a trainee chef here."

Hearing this, several people who were busy in the kitchen stopped what they were doing and looked over in surprise.

"Oh, Izayoi, are there other students as outstanding as you in your class?"

A tall, middle-aged man with golden curly hair asked in surprise.

"Yes, Alpha, Satou is very capable."

Izayoi Tsuki nodded and said.

"Oh? More capable than Izayoi? Why haven't I heard of it before?"

Another stocky middle-aged man, with a turban wrapped around his head, dressed as a traditional Japanese chef, asked in astonishment.

They had thought Izayoi Tsuki was already the most outstanding student in their class, but they didn't expect there to be another.

"No matter how capable, he's just a student with no experience. From now on, you'll be responsible for washing dishes."

Alpha said with obvious disdain.

As a senior chef with twenty years of experience, he naturally held a kind of contempt for these novices who came out of school for internships.

Many chefs around looked at Satou with a hint of disdain as well.

"Alpha, don't say that. Isn't the little brother quite handsome?"

Ms. Sakai stroked Satou's cheek and blew a breath on his face.

Feeling her warm, fragrant breath and the surging waves on her chest, Satou couldn't help but swallow.

But Satou quickly composed himself.

Compared to her, he still preferred the Tsundere type.

"Little brother, don't dislike those tasks. I also started that way."

Ms. Sakai patted Satou's shoulder and said.

Satou nodded. In formal restaurants, especially high-end ones, newcomers generally could only do odd jobs. It was very difficult to become a head chef and make a dish independently.

Satou remembered that after the Autumn Election, the Far Moon prodigies who went for restaurant internships also started with odd jobs like washing dishes and mopping floors.

One must know that those were the top students from Japan's number one culinary school, and among them were many spoiled rich second-generation heirs.

Even Erina Nakiri was assigned to wash dishes. Of course, Tsundere definitely didn't obey the arrangement. In just three days, she completely took over the other party's kitchen.

At this moment, Mr. Mita walked in from outside the door and said, "Satou, what dishes are you good at? I'll prepare to write them on the menu later."
