I Refuse To Become Scumbag In Tokyo
Today Should Be My Lucky Day


Shishio entered the kitchen then looked around, wondering if he could see the other tenants, but it seemed like nothing.


Shishio then walks towards the boys refrigerator located opposite the kitchen. It was a plain white refrigerator with double doors. From the looks of it alone, it seemed like the refrigerator was still new and there was no strange smell at all after it was opened. He knew that it was cleaned frequently, but he felt that it was normal because this place was where people stored their food and ingredients, so it needed to be cleaned regularly.


Shishio put some ingredients in his compartment in the fridge and left some on the kitchen counter as he was about to cook his dinner.


Shishio has received "Mastery of Japanese Cooking" so he will cook Japanese food for his dinner. He took rice, thinly sliced beef, onions, carrots, potatoes, peas, dashi, mirin, soy sauce, sake, and sugar. The thing he was going to cook today was a very simple dish known as nikujaga.


It is said that a person can be a good wife or will not be determined by how delicious their nikujaga is cooked.


If her marriage is good, does she have to qualify as a wife as well?


Shishio does not think that she will become a wife or that she will become a husband of the household in the future, but he hopes his wife is good at cooking so he can enjoy a warm meal every time he comes back from home.


Washing clean the ingredients, he started cutting the ingredients to cook faster and could absorb the seasoning better.


In fact, Shishio knows that Japanese food is very simple.


Unlike the food of some countries that are loaded with spices as a spice, Japanese cuisine is very simple and there are only five main spices namely soy sauce, dashi, sake, salt, and sugar.


With those five spices, he could easily cook any Japanese food.


Well, there's also MSG that can give umami flavor to her food, but she won't use it for her dinner because it's unhealthy. Although there would be no problem with consuming a small amount of MSG, after mastering the "Mastery of Japanese Cooking" she felt disgust for the artificial seasoning so she did not use it, but he has to admit that MSG is a great invention because, with just a little bit, anything can be delicious.


It could be said that Japanese food is very simple, but because it is simple it is also difficult.


The key to Japanese food is to retain the original flavor of the ingredients as much as possible, and that's also the reason why food in the Kansai region is quite light.


If someone is not familiar with the taste of Kansai region food, then they will think that the food is tasteless, but in fact, it feels very soft and full of complexity.


However, enough of his explanation was because after he cut the ingredients, he put everything in the pot, according to the instinct given by "The Mastery of Japanese Cooking". He felt with this ability, there was a voice telling him how to make his nikujaga even more delicious than before.


After finishing with the nikujaga, he immediately washed the rice and cooked it in the rice cooker. After his physical ability doubled, his food intake also increased so that the amount of food he cooked was quite a lot.


Shishio was waiting for the meal to finish and when he knew that it was time, he opened the lid of the pot where he cooked the nikujaga, however...


"......"


Shishio was stunned after he saw a golden light emerge from his nikujaga.


"What?"


Shishio wiped his eyes and the golden light disappeared. He raised his eyebrows and wondered if it was an illusion, yet ...


'The smell is delicious ...'


The smell of nikujaga is very soft, but tasty and permeates the entire kitchen.


Shishio can smell the beef, potatoes, carrots, onions, seasonings of his vegetables, and somehow, somehow, he suddenly felt that he was standing on a beautiful farm where he was raising livestock and growing various vegetables.


Shishio wonders why he suddenly feels that he has become a player in the game "H*rvest M**n".


"Let me taste it."


Shishio then took a small bowl to do a taste check by putting a little nikujaga in the small bowl.


*dings!*


However, when Shishio was about to take the small bowl he had prepared earlier, a small hand stretched out from under the other side of the kitchen table, towards his small bowl.


Shishio wanted to stop that hand, but...


"Wait...!"


"ah! Hot, hot!"


Shishio knows that nikujaga is very hot and he wants to stop the person who stole his nikujaga, but it is too late.


Shishio looked at the girl who jumped out from under the kitchen table. He was wearing a high school uniform affiliated with Suimei Art University. She has short brown hair and breasts that exceed the standards of female High School students.


Seeing this girl, Shishio somehow knew who this girl was.


"Hot, hot! But wow, so good! Hot, hot! How did you make it, Kouhai-kun?"


Seeing the girl in front of him shouting and screaming, she simply stuffed the nikujaga in the small bowl into her little mouth and looked at him as if she had found a treasure.


"Hello, my name is Misaki Kamiigusa, third grade student! Kouhai-kun, I've just met, Chihiro-nee before and I've heard about you from her, um, it's delicious!"



"..."


Seeing Misaki, Shishio realizes that this place is full of troublesome people, but at least, this girl is more pleasing to the eye than Shirosaki Shizuru whom he met before.


"Hello, Kamiigusa-senpai, I'm Shishio Oga. I just moved from Sakurasou, so please take care of me, and may I ask, Kamiigusa-senpai?" Shishio knew that he had to be polite to the upperclassman, even though he felt no need to do so.


"What's wrong? Um, I've eaten all the nikujaga, may I ask you more, Kouhai-kun?"


Nikujaga is located in the pot and although Misaki is a very hyperactive girl and looks rather stupid, she is not stupid and she knows if she directly takes the nikujaga from the pot then her hand will burn.


"Please don't call me Kouhai-kun. My name is Shishio Oga and I have a lot of nikujaga so I can share it with you, but before that, can you wash your hands?" Shishio was afraid that this girl would have stomach pains after eating using her hands.


"..."


"Oh, Kouhai-kun."


"It's Shishio Oga."


Shishio felt a little tired, but he corrected his mistake.


Misaki did not care, her face was full of excitement, and she quickly said, "Let's get married!"


"...."


Shishio wanted to say something but...




"......"
