Chapter 228 No. 078 [Gourmet]

Chapter 228 No. 078 [Gourmet]

There is no doubt that the difficulty of this "Gourmet" challenge game has exploded at this moment.

Even the few people who were tortured by hunger and almost lost their minds forced themselves to calm down at this time, then analyzed the situation carefully, and finally came to a conclusion.

"This game challenge is a trap!"

"Why are there only so many pieces of meat? Moreover, each one has been carefully fried, and you can't see the texture at all. They all look the same. Even if other ingredients are used to pretend to be meat, you can't tell. Are you cheating?"

Old Wang's pig face was furious, and he glared and said, "I can't possibly violate the supermarket's rules. If you don't believe me, go ahead and complain, but I can't refund the shopping vouchers you've already paid for."

When the man heard this, he knew he had said the wrong thing.

They have experienced many challenge projects in the supermarket. Although they lost more than they won and almost redeemed all the accumulated cards, one thing is certain.

Cheating is not allowed in any of the challenge games here.

Otherwise, the supermarket administrator will take action to eliminate the cheating staff.

There is no doubt about this.

"Idiot, it's because the other party didn't cheat and used the same nine kinds of meat ingredients that they deliberately made them look the same to confuse people. You can't even see that. You've really regressed badly. Just get out of the supermarket and practice for fifty cycles before coming back." Another person who recalled the past cursed.

It can be seen that he is the leader among these people.

The one who was scolded had a gloomy expression, but he lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything more.

"Come here, let's discuss a countermeasure!" The few people gathered together and whispered, "This pig head can't cheat, there is no doubt about that, and there is no need to say more about it, but it is certain that it is very difficult to distinguish different parts of meat ingredients by taste, especially this cooking method almost destroys the original taste of the ingredients. Unless you are a true gourmet, it is almost impossible to completely mark all nine ingredients."

"What should I do?"

"It's simple. First of all, among the nine ingredients, the taste of No. 3 pig ears and No. 8 pig trotter tendons must be different from the others. No matter how they are cooked, the gelatinous properties of these two kinds of meat cannot be changed. Therefore, we can easily distinguish No. 3 and No. 8. The remaining seven kinds need to be carefully considered. So when eating, don't swallow it in one gulp. Cut it open to check the texture. For example, the texture of No. 7 plum blossom meat is similar to plum blossom, so it has this name. In short, the four of us must occupy the most likely combination. As long as one of the four succeeds, it won't be a loss. Do you understand?"

“This tactic should be the optimal solution.”

"So, distinguish the texture of the meat and ventilate it when choosing."

"understood!"

Several people quickly came up with a strategy.

Because there is only one winner, it is obvious that the side with more people has the absolute advantage.

Even if it was trial and error, the opponent was four times as strong as Luo Xi.

Lin Qiqi saw the problem and wanted to remind Luo Xi, but she soon realized that if even she could see it, how could Luo Xi not see it?

Moreover, she had already determined that Pig-headed Old Wang designed this challenge in order to give the thing to Luo Xi without leaving any trace.

Therefore, Luo Xi must have other ways to distinguish the ingredients.

Why do you say it is another way?
Because if you only rely on the taste of the meat to distinguish, only top gourmets can do it.

What's more, it was only a small piece of meat the size of a fingernail.

Anyway, if I let her eat it, I guess she would swallow it without even tasting it.

Looking at Luo Xi again, his expression was still calm. This time Lin Qiqi felt more relieved. However, although she was relieved, she was still curious about how Luo Xi would distinguish the nine different parts of meat.

“Begin tasting!”

Old Wang laid out nine plates in a row and made a "please" gesture.

"But remember, each person can only taste one piece of meat from each plate. If you eat more, you will be disqualified immediately and the fine will be doubled." Old Wang also said the ugly words in advance.

Several people gathered around.

Each person picked up a small toothpick.

Used to eat meat chunks.

Since everyone got a piece, there was no need to fight over it, so everyone took one. Luo Xi smelled it, then put it in his mouth, chewing it slowly.

The four people next to them borrowed a knife, cut it carefully and observed the texture.

Even though he was extremely hungry, he still endured it in order to win.

Luo Xi had no intention of cutting it, so he tasted it the fastest. He picked up the meat in the second plate, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.

"good to eat!"

Then came the third and fourth plate.

He really behaved like a gourmet, completely immersed in the deliciousness of meat and feeling the unique aroma and taste.

Lin Qiqi drooled at the sight of this.

On the ninth plate, Luo Xi stuffed the last small piece of meat into his mouth, chewed it, and then savoured it with a look of aftertaste on his face.

“The cooking is superb, amazing.”

Old Wang didn't say anything, but he was very happy with the praise.

Next, Luo Xi did not put the label on immediately, but waited for the other people to put the digital labels on together. This is also a requirement within the rules, because it can prevent others from "maliciously following suit."

Those four people cut every little piece of meat, carefully studied the texture, recorded it, and compared it.

Just like doing an experiment.

But because the meat pieces are too small and the cooking method is too bad, most of the textures are not visible. By doing this, they actually destroy the taste that could have been tasted.

"Then, make your choice." Old Wang saw that everyone had finished tasting, so he pointed to the nine plates that had only a few side dishes left and said, "Put the number of the ingredient you think it is and put it under the corresponding plate."

Several people, including Luo Xi, received nine numbered stickers of different colors.

Red, yellow, blue, green, and white. That way, it's impossible to confuse them.

The entire challenge game is designed perfectly in details.

So, several people started posting numbers at the same time.

One after another, Lin Qiqi looked carefully at the ones Luo Xi posted, trying to analyze the pattern.

“4、9、2、3、5、7、8、1、6”

"Luo Xi didn't hesitate at all when he put it on, which means he was very sure of the result, but did he really taste it?"

"That's impossible. No matter how smart your brain is, it can't control your sense of taste. Moreover, all nine ingredients are cooked in the same way and taste almost the same. The only difference is the extremely subtle texture of the meat. But because the pieces of meat are so small, it becomes very difficult to distinguish the taste carefully!"

Lin Qiqi could be sure that there was no connection or information transmission between Lao Wang and Luo Xi.

Because she was not the only one observing, the four memory-collectors were not blind either.

"So, how did Luo Xi tell them apart?"

Just when Lin Qiqi was puzzled, several people over there had already finished labeling.

"Well, I will announce the result. Of course, to ensure fairness, I have already written the correct number sequence on the back of the plate. Everyone, turn the plate over to find out who won, or who didn't win."

As soon as Old Wang finished speaking, someone hurriedly picked up the plate and turned it over.

九个盘子很快全部翻过来,上面写着的数字编号按照顺序为:4、9、2、3、5、7、8、1、6。

Exactly the same label as someone else's.

Luo Xi smiled.

The four people who recalled memories had ferocious expressions.

"It looks like the winner has been chosen. Congratulations, you have won the 'Gourmet' shopping challenge game. You will receive 2000 shopping vouchers and this precious numbered card, 078 [Gourmet]."

Old Wang looked like he was just going through the motions, reading out the instructions without any emotion, and one could even hear a tinge of reluctance and heartache.

That's right, the purpose of the challenge game is to consume the shopping coupons of the Memory Collectors and force them to constantly redeem them with their own cards.

So for Lao Wang, it would be best if no one wins.

After seeing Luo Xi get a thick stack of shopping coupons and that precious 078 [Gourmet], the four people who recalled the past could no longer hide their jealousy on their faces.

"Thank you. I'll come again next time." Luo Xi took a look at the card introduction of [Gourmet]. It said: Treat food like life. Food is life - in the eyes of gourmets, all living things are delicacies!

It's very simple, but for a card, the simpler the introduction, the more complex the card may be.

Luo Xi almost immediately understood the function of this numbered card.

"Can life be restored by eating? Moreover, it has an absolute advantage in the face of any living creature. There are many more interesting interpretations of this sentence!"

He put the cards away.

There is no doubt that this is an extremely important card that can play a huge role at critical moments.

"Next time, there won't be any cards as prizes." Old Wang said, and continued to chop the meat.

Luo Xi also pulled Lin Qiqi away. Although the Shiyi people were not allowed to fight with each other in the supermarket, they could always find some loopholes to exploit in this kind of thing.

Those four people who recalled memories were driven by jealousy and greed, and no one could guarantee what they would do.

So it was right to leave.

"Are we leaving just like this?" Lin Qiqi sent a message to Luo Xi.

She could see that Luo Xi and that pig-headed old Wang still had a lot to say and many questions to ask.

"There are dummies walking back and forth over there, spying secretly. Maybe this place has been targeted, so it's better to be careful." After Luo Xi finished speaking, Lin Qiqi understood.

From the beginning, there are indeed a lot more mannequin staff in the fresh food area.

If there is a problem with the dummy, then that is definitely not the time to communicate, even if she is there.

If you want to communicate, you can find other opportunities and there is no need to rush.

But she had one urgent question.

"Luo Xi, tell me, did you really distinguish the nine kinds of meat ingredients by tasting them?"

Lin Qiqi was very curious about this matter.

"What do you think?" Luo Xi asked back.

“Maybe top gourmets can”

"Yes, but I'm not a top gourmet. I can't even say I know how to eat!"

"Then how did you make sure, and finally choose the right one? Don't tell me you just guessed it." Lin Qiqi was shocked, but at the same time, her curiosity was also aroused to the highest point.

Luo Xi knew that if he didn't tell Lin Qiqi about this, she would keep asking him questions.

So I said, "Essentially, this is a very simple math problem that you must know."

"Math problem? Why didn't I see that?" Lin Qiqi recalled and shook her head. How did food tasting have to do with math problems?

"Then think carefully about the order of the numbers I marked. Just a reminder, nine numbers, separated by threes."

"Ah, that's 4, 9, 23, 5, 78, 1, 6." Lin Qiqi repeated it, then thought quickly, and soon her eyes lit up.
