“I never use ingredients like shark fin in my cuisine. Shark fins only promote the cruel killing of sharks and offer no real benefits to our diet. The nutrition we gain from eating shark fin is less than eating a single egg,” Cindy Clarke said. “So, I would never choose to use such a precious yet unhelpful ingredient just for the sake of gimmicks.”
“Even if my dish today can’t fully recreate what’s described in the books and may have some flaws, I still stand by my choice,” Cindy said.
The audience heard Cindy’s words.
“Well said!”
“If there’s no demand, there’s no harm done. These words aren’t empty talk.”
“Cindy’s values are righteous!”
Cindy’s fans proudly said: “We definitely picked the right person to support!”
“Cindy’s so outstanding!”
“I don’t know how a portion of shark fin ended up in my food storage box. The person who destroyed the shark fin probably thought the other ingredients were unremarkable, and the shark fin seemed the most valuable and indispensable one,” Cindy analyzed calmly.
“So during the chaos when the previous contestants were all checking their ingredients, someone tampered with the shark fin,” Cindy said. “At that time, there were many people around, so even with cameras, it might not have been easy to capture the act.”
“Moreover, the person who ruined my ingredients probably had already prepared, observed the situation in the food storage room, and chose an angle that the camera couldn’t capture while sabotaging my ingredients. It’s possible,” Cindy said.
“Since that’s the case, what makes you think I did it? You have no evidence, and you want to accuse me of wrongdoing just based on your empty words?” Iris Doone retorted stubbornly.
But in reality, she had already exposed herself when she mentioned shark fin earlier.
Now, no matter what she said, in the hearts of everyone, they were all convinced that Iris Doone had indeed meddled with the ingredients.
From the audience’s seats, people accused: “How can someone like her still be allowed to participate in the Competition? She’s incapable, so she resorts to these underhanded tactics, and still doesn’t admit to it!”
“Her earlier words have already exposed her, so what’s the point of denying it now? She can only deceive herself.”
“Besides, if I wanted to sabotage you, why only destroy the shark fin? You have so many ingredients, why not just ruin them all or destroy the majority, so you can’t make anything at all?” Iris Doone said.
“Yeah, Iris’s got a point,” Blake Walker chimed in.
Cindy glanced at him sarcastically: “Iris seems to have a point, but in reality, she might have wanted to do that but she couldn’t.”
“It’s not that she wouldn’t, but she couldn’t,” Cindy said coldly.
Cindy walked over to her food storage box.
She opened a portable insulated box filled with ice cubes.
This was the fresh Yellow Croaker provided by the Competition organizers, kept in the water tanks to make it harder for contestants to catch.
So they were placed in this small insulated box with ice for preservation instead.
Each contestant’s food storage box had such an insulated box, filled with the cold, fresh ingredients they needed.
“The Yellow Croaker is kept in this kind of insulated box. My food storage box is far away from yours; wouldn’t it be too obvious if you ran all the way here just to open my insulated box?” Cindy asked coldly.
