Chapter 18 Chapter Four

During the lunch break the next day, I went to "Louis".Because, I really can't wait until the evening to go. As soon as I stepped into the store, Mr. Okimoto happened to come out from the door leading to the back court, and said to me with a hearty smile as usual: "Are you here to buy chocolate today, or to find the chef?" "I'm here to see Mr. Changfeng, and I'll buy chocolates next time." "Unfortunately, the chef was on a business trip yesterday, and he won't be back until a few days later." "Is the pastry chef also on a business trip?"

"Go and confirm the fruit, because to conceive a new product, you must first contact the farmer." "When are you coming back?" "About three days later! I also need to stop by the farmers who provide milk and eggs." So the day he came back happened to be the day when the new ice cream product suspected of plagiarism was launched. I really regret not coming to him earlier, if I had come yesterday, I might have met him again. "Is there something urgent?" "Yes, can you tell me how to contact me?" "Sorry, this is just..." Although I know him, I am not an employee of "Louis" after all, so it is impossible to tell me. "I don't mean to be treacherous, I take the liberty to ask one thing."

"What's up?" "Has Mr. Changfeng ever mentioned the design of new products with other masters?" "He has always dealt with it with full authority and never cheated on others." "Aren't you going to ask Okimoto-san for assistance?" "No, although it is said that he was hired by someone, but 'Louis' can be said to have been facilitated by Changfeng. What's wrong?" "It's okay, thank you Luo!" I went to the park and found a secluded place to call Mr. Kuga, explaining that I hadn't been able to meet Chef Nagamine as I wished, and that I couldn't meet until the new ice cream sale day.

"Then there is no other way," Mr. Kuga seemed regretful: "It seems that I can only give up the idea of ​​launching 'Moonman' and look forward to the next new work. Although I feel sorry for the master who made this work, I can only say luck it's not good!" Bad luck... Is it appropriate to put a period on such a word?I know I'm not in a position to say that, but I shouldn't give up lightly. I asked Mr. Kuga: "Can you give me a little more time?" "what?" "If it's possible, maybe I can meet Chef Changfeng before the new product launch date, but I don't have time to take care of the work in the store. Can you help find someone to replace it?"

"I understand. Then please ask for leave as soon as possible. I will find a way to find someone to take over the shift. I should be able to find a work-study student who can take over the shift for three days! So don't worry, just do as you want!" "thanks." "Everything is troublesome for you." After I hung up the phone, I went back to Fuyingtang.I told myself that I would be on vacation for three days from today, and I hurriedly prepared to leave work. Seeing Mina's surprised face, I told her that the reason for the vacation was to clarify some misunderstandings between Mr. Miyoshi and Chef Nagamine.

That being the case, there is no way!Mina sighed: "I really want to take a vacation early!" "I think after this matter is dealt with, I can take your leave. I will tell Mr. Jiuhe." "Wow! Thanks! I will work harder." I left Fuyingtang and went to the bookstore.From a corner of the West Point-related books area, I began to look for books that reported on Chef "Louis" Changfeng.As long as there are relevant reports, regardless of whether the publication time is old or not, I will buy them without hesitation. Then confirm one by one on the return tram.As soon as I got home, I went online and searched for reports about "Louis".

Although there are many related reports, except for personal blogs, most of them are excerpts from magazines or interviews on the Internet.After collecting data to a certain extent, print out the parts that need to be read carefully, and then investigate further. I want to know where the orchard "Louis" buys from?Generally, the name of the orchard will be mentioned in the interview report introducing desserts. Even if no contact information such as phone number or address is published, you can find out where it is located and the type of fruit grown. As long as you know these, you can use the name of the orchard to find the location.

Some farms grow rare fruits. Based on the store’s requirements, the content of the report is somewhat reserved, and all relevant information will not be disclosed. It should be said that there are more parts that are not disclosed.But as long as you catch a few relevant clues, you can find out the whereabouts of Chef Changfeng by making direct inquiries. Then it's down to luck.Call the other party to ask whether Chef Changfeng is present, has been here a few hours ago, or whether he is scheduled to visit in the future, etc., as long as you find one clue, you can grasp the whereabouts of Chef Changfeng.If you still can't find it, you can only accept your fate and choose to give up.

After making the list, I glanced at the clock on the cabinet. After five o'clock in the afternoon, maybe there is still time.I started calling the names on the list one by one.
