No. 1 judge.

Naoto Kawaguchi was stunned when he heard Takano Koyo's judgment.

Blue Fantasy is a Michelin-starred restaurant. Even if it is only one star, it is still a Michelin-starred restaurant. The other party’s blue chicken soup ramen is a special signature.

But did Takano Koyo actually score only 7 points?

Although his heart was filled with surprise, Kawaguchi Naoto responded calmly on the surface, "Okay."

Koyo Takano didn't know that he had given the blue fantasy chicken soup ramen a relatively low score, so he continued to taste the No. 3 chicken soup ramen.

‘The chicken soup is light and has insufficient umami flavor. Although it does not have a fishy smell, it still does not reflect the umami flavor of the chicken soup.’ Koyang Takano secretly commented on the No. 3 chicken soup ramen in his heart.

He chewed the ramen again, "The ramen is of good quality, and the chewing strength and toughness are above the level. Generally speaking, it is a little better than No. 2, but there is a big gap with No. 1."

Koyo Takano thought secretly before making a judgment decision, "Naoto-kun, No. 3 chicken soup ramen, I will give you 7.2 points."

Naoto Kawaguchi nodded and responded, "Okay, I've recorded it."

"Then please help Naoto-kun prepare No. 4 chicken soup ramen. Please, Naoto-kun." Takano Koyo responded politely.

"You're welcome, this is my job." Naoto Kawaguchi responded while preparing the No. 4 chicken soup ramen.

Takano Koyo tasted it in the same way, and secretly gave an evaluation in his heart.

‘There is a problem with the taste of the chicken soup. It is not the pure chicken soup taste, it seems... chicken essence?’ Koyang Takano made a judgment in his heart.

Koyo Takano's taste is very sensitive. He ran over to watch the lively chicken soup ramen competition, but in fact he also had the intention of being a judge.

‘Which store is it that actually uses chicken essence?’ Koyo Takano secretly despised it. If you want to fool people with such tricks, it would be too naive.

‘Is it the store in Xia Kingdom?’ Koyang Takano made a secret judgment, ‘There are rumors online that Xia Kingdom likes to use chicken essence in cooking. I guess they are also this time!’

‘Since you have used chicken essence, don’t blame me for being strict!’ Koyang Takano sneered in his heart.

"Natoto-jun, No. 4 chicken soup ramen, 2 points, it should use chicken essence as seasoning to increase the flavor of chicken soup. This is a professional deception." Koyo Takano said a few more words.

Naoto Kawaguchi recorded the situation, and he affirmed, "Okay, Xiaoyangjun, I have recorded the information."

"Then please trouble Naoto-kun, I want to try the last chicken soup ramen." Takano Koyo explained.

"Okay." Naoto Kawaguchi responded, and then prepared No. 5 chicken soup ramen.

Koyo Takano tasted the last chicken soup ramen. When the ramen mixed with chicken soup was in the mouth, he was stunned.

‘This chicken soup... actually has the feeling of No. 1. Could it be that Naoto Kwan made a mistake?’ Koyo Takano thought secretly, but he did not question it immediately, but continued to taste it.

‘The chicken soup has a strong taste, but no greasy feeling, the umami taste is authentic, and the Jedi is the taste of the chicken soup itself. This kind of craft... Could it be the Sorado from Sensoji Temple, or the 60-year-old Hideo Kojima?’ Koyo Takano silently judged.

Although Koyo Takano did not have a biased judgment, and his ratings were based on taste and taste, he was still guessing which restaurant each chicken soup was cooked.

‘The chicken soup ramen number one and number five is definitely Kotoki and Kojima Hideo!’ Koyo Takano made a judgment in his heart.

"Natoto, I want to try No. 1 chicken soup ramen again." Takano Koyo gave a reminder.

"No problem, please wait." Naoto Kawaguchi prepared a No. 1 chicken soup ramen for Takano Koyo, and then handed it to Takano Koyo.

After Takano Koyo took it, he couldn't wait to feed it into his mouth and then tasted it carefully.

‘Sure enough, the chicken soup was right now. The chicken soup No. 1 tasted the best, it was richer and more fresher than No. 5. The key was to have a vibrant feeling. This chicken soup contained a taste that made people feel energetic!’ Koyang Takano reevaluated the taste of the chicken soup No. 1 ramen.

"Natoto, I want to taste the flavor of No. 5 chicken soup ramen again." Takano Koyo issued another reminder, "Sorry, Naoto, please trouble you."

Naoto Kawaguchi responded, "It doesn't matter. In fact, Xiaoyang Jun tasted it repeatedly, but he performed very rigorously!"

Koyo Takano tasted No. 5 chicken soup ramen again. ‘There is a difference between No. 5 chicken soup ramen and No. 1 chicken soup ramen, especially in terms of chicken soup, the gap is too obvious. Although the chicken soup of No. 5 chicken soup ramen is still rich and fresh, it does not have the kind of vitality that makes people feel.’

"Natoto, I want to modify the score, change the No. 1 Chicken Soup Ramen to 9.9 points, No. 5 Chicken Soup Ramen to 8.5 points, and the other scores remain unchanged." Takano Koyo said his own judgment.

Naoto Kawaguchi repeated it and asked, "So, Xiaoyangjun, your vote will be voted for No. 1 chicken soup ramen, right?"

"Yes!" Naoto Kawaguchi responded affirmatively.

"I must remind you, Xiao Yangjun, after you make a judgment, you will undergo a lie test. Are you sure to vote for No. 1 Chicken Soup Ramen?" Naoto Kawaguchi issued a reminder according to the regulations.

Koyo Takano responded with affirmative response, "I'm sure! I think the No. 1 Chicken Soup Ramen tastes the best. I sincerely vote for No. 1 Chicken Soup Ramen!"

"Okay, I have recorded it. Xiaoyangjun, you can now take off your eye mask and go to the lie detection stage to wait for the test. Please pay special attention and do not communicate the judgment results with other members of the judging team." Naoto Kawaguchi reminded.

"No problem." Takano Koyo responded.

In less than ten minutes, it was Koyo Takano's turn to sit in a temporary confined room. In the confined room, in addition to the staff using the lie detector, there was also the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, the FBI, and the official staff of Xia Guo, and the general staff.

The tester repeated the lie detection rules for Koyo Takano, "Mr. Xiaoyang, you only need to answer yes, or no, and no other answers for each of our questions. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Takano Koyo responded.

"Okay, now you can start setting up the benchmark, you can only answer yes, or not." The lie detector started asking, "Is your name Koyo Takano, right?"

"Yes." Takano Koyo answered affirmatively.

"You are 23 years old, are you right?" the lie detector asked again.

"Yes." Koyo Takano still answered affirmatively.

"You're a male, are you?" The lie detective asked the obvious questions again, thus establishing the corresponding baseline.

"Yes." Takano Koyo responded patiently.

"You're married, right?" The lie detector has collected the baselines for affirmative answers, and now starts to establish the baselines for negative answers.

"No." Takano Koyo's negative response.
