Although those dishes couldn't compare to those in restaurants, you could tell they were made with care.
"Hmm, Sakurajima Mai has a good idea!" Jingu I also praised, looking at the dishes on the table.
"This proves that Jingu-sensei, your decision to make Mai Sakurajima was correct!" At this moment, Shizuka Marikawa said to Jingu-sensei.
Shizuka Marikawa's words sound like she's trying to flatter him!
"No, you're making me feel embarrassed." Jingu Yi replied helplessly after hearing Shizuka Marikawa's words, which sounded like flattery.
"Hehe, but Professor Jingu Yi, you don't look embarrassed at all!" At this moment, a figure walked into the reception room and spoke to Jingu Yi.
It's Shiraki Meiko; she's started arguing with Jingu Ichi again.
This is a case of forgetting past mistakes.
Looks like you haven't had enough of the training yet! Jingu Yi stroked his chin and then began to examine Shiraki Meiko in front of him.
"..." Upon noticing Jingu's gaze, Shiraki Meiko couldn't help but shiver.
What mischief is this guy up to now?! Shiraki Meiko frowned slightly, thinking to herself.
But for some reason, she found herself feeling a little hopeful.
She was hoping that Shen Gongyi would do something bad to her.

Many people were already in the reception room, such as Saeko Busujima and Saya Takagi, and they were all seated.
They didn't start eating, seemingly waiting for everyone to arrive.
It's quite impressive that this small team could maintain such order in the apocalypse.
Perhaps because none of the people present had ever experienced hunger, they were able to maintain order during the meal.
If there were a food shortage, perhaps this scene wouldn't have occurred.
"Huh!? Is everyone waiting for me?!" Jingu Yi jokingly remarked as he approached the dining table.
"Waiting for you?! Are you kidding me?! We're waiting for Ms. Shizuka Marikawa, and also for Meiko Shiraki." Saya Takagi retorted to Ichi Jingu.
Saya Takagi said that on purpose.
At this moment, Takagi Saya was still angry with Jingu Ichi.
Just now, Jingu Itsuki did that to her in the pool (referring to the time he attacked her weaknesses in the pool), and she still harbors some resentment towards Jingu Itsuki.
That's why I said those things on purpose.
"Sigh~ I'm so sad. So she wasn't waiting for me after all!" Upon hearing Takagi Saya's words, Jingu Ichi also showed a disappointed expression.
After saying that, Jingu Yi sighed and leaned on Shizuka Marikawa's shoulder.
Shizuka Marikawa has very well-maintained skin; leaning against her smooth shoulders feels incredibly comfortable.
Not only is it comfortable, but you can also smell the fragrance of Shizuka Marikawa.
Hmm~ It tastes like a fruit wine that's been brewing for a long time; I want to open it and taste it.
Then, Jingu Yi couldn't help but reveal an expression of ecstasy.
"No way, is he taking advantage of me so blatantly?!" Seeing Jingu Yi so openly taking advantage of Shizuka Marikawa, Saya Takagi frowned slightly, her expression becoming very displeased.
Seeing Jingu Ichi's actions, Shiraki Meiko, who was standing to the side, was also surprised.
However, the others seemed quite calm, as if they were used to it.
"Alright, alright, don't be sad. Actually, everyone is waiting for you. After all, you are Li De'er, the leader of this team." Seeing Jingu Yi so sad, Ju Chuan Shizuka comforted him.
"Ah!! Really!?" Upon hearing Shizuka Marikawa's words, Jingu Yi immediately perked up and excitedly confirmed with Shizuka Marikawa.
“Yes, really.” Shizuka Marikawa nodded in agreement.
"No, Shizuka Marikawa-sensei, there's a limit to comforting people, isn't there?! What nonsense are you spouting?" Saya Takagi complained to Shizuka Marikawa.
Although Jingu Yi is the leader of this team, he hasn't reached the point where everyone trusts him. The team members probably won't skip dinner because of Jingu Yi.
The reason we didn't start eating was simply because not everyone had arrived, not because we were waiting for Shen Gongyi.
"Alright, now that everyone's here, let's start having dinner," Mai Sakurajima said.
“Yes, yes! Let’s eat first. We can talk about other things after we finish eating!” Takagi Saya nodded in agreement.
"Let's eat!" Jingu Yi was the first to pick up his chopsticks and start eating. There was a plate of fried chicken in front of him, and he picked up a piece of fried chicken and put it in his mouth.
It tastes no different from regular fried chicken.
However, since this fried chicken was made by Mai Sakurajima, it deserves extra points.
"Oh! Jingu-sensei is sneaking a bite!" Takagi Saya exclaimed when she saw Jingu-sensei starting to taste the food.
After saying that, Takagi Saya also began to taste the dishes on the table.
As Saya Takagi began to eat, the atmosphere at the table was also enlivened, and everyone else began to enjoy the dishes as well.
……
"Burp~" After finishing the meal, Takagi Saya patted her slightly protruding belly and then showed a satisfied expression.
"This dish is just so-so," Saya Takagi commented as she patted her stomach.
Mai Sakurajima's cooking is indeed excellent, but Saya Takashiro is a wealthy young lady whose daily meals are prepared by top chefs, so her tastes are a bit discerning.
Coupled with her pride as a rich young lady, she described Sakurajima Mai's cooking as "so-so".
"Hehe, this is barely acceptable. Then don't eat it next time!" Jingu I said to Takagi Saya.
"Next time, I'll only let you eat instant noodles and bread." Then, Jingu Yi added.
"Ah!? No way!" Upon hearing Jingu Ichi's words, Takagi Saya immediately obeyed.
You have to understand, being able to eat delicious food on the second day of the apocalypse is already very good, and she has no complaints.
"Bang!" Just then, a noise came from outside.
The sound was a bit far away, as if it came from a distance.
"Huh!? What's that noise?!" Saya Takagi was also puzzled after hearing the cheers.
"It sounded like gunshots, but it was a bit far away," Miyamoto Rei replied.
Because her father was a policeman, she was sensitive to gunshots and immediately recognized that the sound was a gunshot.
Jingu looked in the direction of the gunshot; it was coming from a bridge not far away.
That bridge also appeared in [The Academy Chronicles].
Someone fired a shot?! Miyamoto Rei was the first to walk out of the hotel.
"Shall we go check it out?! Consider it an after-dinner entertainment." At this moment, Jingu Yi suggested.
"Okay, okay!" Shizuka Marikawa nodded in agreement instinctively.
Shizuka Marikawa's gossipy soul is burning brightly.
"Okay! Let's go out and take a look." Jinguichi pulled Shizuka Marikawa away from the reception room.
The reason why Jingu Yi dared to go out and look was because the hotel was relatively safe, and the gunshots were quite far away from them and posed no threat.
The reason Miyamoto Rei ran away was probably because her father was a police officer. After hearing the gunshot, she immediately went to check the situation. Was the officer who fired the shot her father or his colleague?
After Jingu and Shizuka left the reception room, the others also left one after another.
Perhaps because they had spent the whole day at the pool, they were all relaxed and seemed to have forgotten that they were still in the apocalypse.
"No way, we've only been at the hotel for a short time! Have you already forgotten that you're in the apocalypse?!" Seeing the relaxed crowd, Takagi Saya couldn't help but complain.
After saying that, Takagi Saya followed in their footsteps.
While I may want to vent, I still want to enjoy the spectacle.
……
On the second floor of this upscale hotel, there is an open-air balcony. From this balcony, you can see the scenery outside. The bridge is not far from the hotel, and Shen Gongyi and his party can clearly see the view on the bridge from the open-air balcony.
At this time, a large number of people and zombies gathered on the bridge.
He was running, and the zombies were chasing him. He wanted them to chase him, but he couldn't escape.
The people who went up that bridge were probably trying to cross to another city, but the other end of the bridge was blocked by roadblocks.
Clearly, the people on the other side of the bridge don't want anyone to cross!
Behind the roadblocks followed a policeman in work clothes, his face covered in dirt.
Some police officers were using loudspeakers to maintain order on the bridge.
"Don't shoot, please save me and my child!" At this moment, a middle-aged woman standing among the crowd and zombies held her child and cried out to the police officer.
The child in the middle-aged woman's arms was motionless, as if it had died. And the middle-aged woman's child's skin had become much darker.
The child had a bite mark on his body, clearly indicating that he had been bitten by a zombie and was beyond saving.
The middle-aged woman was crying uncontrollably, all alone and helpless; she looked very pitiful.
One of the officers, seeing how pitiful the middle-aged woman was, couldn't bear it and stopped firing.
But at that moment, the child in the middle-aged woman's arms twitched a few times, then suddenly lunged forward and bit the woman's neck.
Red liquid gushed out, and the middle-aged woman screamed before collapsing to the ground.
However, after a short while, the middle-aged woman who had been lying on the ground actually stood up again. However, she looked lifeless, with only the whites of her eyes showing, and her posture became very strange.
Clearly, the middle-aged woman had turned into a zombie.
The middle-aged woman, now a zombie, slowly walked towards where the uncle was, probably attracted by the presence of a living person.
