Trainer? I'm just an ordinary hot spring owner.

Summary:

Jiang Cheng traveled to the Pokémon world and unexpectedly inherited a legacy from his parents - a hot spring resort.

However, an unexpected brain game called Pokémon Healing Center completely changed Jiang Cheng's life.

There are three million elves in the sky. When I see you, I have to lower my eyebrows and flutter my hair. I learned martial arts by rubbing my back. I learned the Flowing Water Rock Breaking Fist. There is also the cute and adorable poster girl, Ergui

------

In the Alola region, there is a rumor

If you have never fought against the boss of the hot springs, your island pilgrimage will be meaningless.

Countless trainers flocked to come and have a look at it.

Jiang Cheng: "Come on, anyone can come. Before you challenge me, get a card first."

"Oh no, boss! The challenger was talking to the super-strong master who was giving him a bath, and when he asked him if he had eaten, he got rubbed unconscious!!"

Volume One

Chapter 1: A family must be in good order

It was a sunny day with a gentle breeze.

The glass windows were half open, and the blue curtains were swaying left and right. The gentle breeze flowed into the room along with the sunlight, bringing a hint of earthy smell.

Around him were a group of students wearing large school uniforms, with energetic and greasy faces. Some were chatting and laughing in groups of three or four, some were napping on the tables, and some were concentrating on writing test papers.

The wooden desk has been through a lot and feels a bit rough, but the edges have been rounded off.

Jiang Cheng sat in his seat in a daze. The reason for his daze was simple: he had traveled through time.

Why do you know that you have traveled through time, not that you have been reborn?

It's simple. The textbook in front of me writes about history, and there is a picture of a huge fossil pterosaur on the cover.

When Jiang Cheng saw it for the first time, he thought he was dreaming. After all, he was organizing information related to Quetzalcoatlus before, so it was reasonable to dream about this. As for why he dreamed about Pokémon while studying Quetzalcoatlus, aren't dreams themselves abstract?

After repeatedly using the awakening process on himself and getting the same result all the time, Jiang Cheng could only rule out all impossibilities and believe the most outrageous answer - that he had traveled through time.

After coming to this conclusion, the second thought in Jiang Cheng’s mind was, why him?

I am just an ordinary biologist. I don’t have the decisiveness and strategizing skills like those time travelers. The only thing I can do is to refute the marketing accounts of water monkeys on the Internet. I was just writing a paper to be published in SCI before. Why did I become the one who traveled through time?

This problem only lasted for less than a moment before Jiang Cheng put it behind his mind. After all, compared to these problems, the most important thing was to figure out his current situation as soon as possible.

To his relief, he seemed to have traveled to the world of Pokémon.

It's not a world where an orphan whose parents have died and an orphan whose entire family has died fight against a mentally ill ancestor and an alien woman. It's not a world where the protagonist whose mother has died turns into a giant naked man and prepares to destroy the world. It's not a world where the athletic orphan protagonist accidentally eats his finger and the white-haired eyepatch-wearing Shock Wave teacher brings young boys and girls to pay tribute to a thousand-year-old monster. It's really great.

Otherwise, he will be the next one to fight Sukuna.

As an authentic child-oriented IP, the Pokémon world can be said to be quite safe. Even if you are a Pokémon, you can live a peaceful life. Not to mention, you can establish connections with various Pokémon and even become their trainer and live with them day and night. This is simply amazing, isn’t it?

The bell for class interrupted Jiang Cheng's wandering thoughts. The students returned to their seats. Some of them were still talking in groups of three or four. But all the noise stopped when the teacher entered the classroom.

And now, there are two pieces of news, one good and one bad, in front of Jiang Cheng.

Good news, this class is math class.

Don't get me wrong, even in the Pokémon world, science is the same as the Tucker team. Mathematics as a basic subject is naturally indispensable. I have been engaged in science and engineering before, so I have some confidence in my mathematical level.

The bad news is that I don’t know the remaining subjects at all.

There is also some news that is neither good nor bad, that is, the original owner of this body seems to have poor grades, and a poor student's presence in the classroom is naturally very weak. As long as I don't make a big noise, the teacher will basically ignore me.

This is my own experience as a student. I just don’t know if the teachers in the Pokémon world will follow this logic. I hope so.

Click.

Jiang Cheng heard the sound of rodents eating. He turned his head and was disappointed to find that it was not the Pokémon he expected, but his desk mate who was secretly eating a bag of scallion-flavored potato chips.

She was staring at the teacher on the podium. When she saw that the teacher was not paying attention to her, she quickly stuffed the potato chips into her mouth, buried her head in her arm, and chewed them secretly for a few times, looking like a Japanese soldier stealing a landmine.

Information about potato chips also popped up in Jiang Cheng's mind: Scallion Flavored Potato Chips, whose full name is Scallion Duck Scallion Flavored Potato Chips, are a hot-selling flavor in the potato chip market. Previously, the onions of Scallion Duck were eaten in large quantities, causing the Scallion Duck to not lay eggs because it could not find any onions, and it almost became extinct. Later, after conservation breeding, the population recovered again. Naturally, while humans were increasing the production of onions, they also synthesized a similar flavor through modern industry.

It smells so good...it makes me a little hungry.

Zhao Yu noticed Jiang Cheng's gaze, turned his head to look at Jiang Cheng, hesitated for a while, took out a few pieces from the bag, and quietly handed them to Jiang Cheng.

"Eat carefully, don't let the Bull Demon King find out."

The math teacher's surname is Gao, which has nothing to do with cows. The reason why he is called Bull Demon King is mainly because he has a Kentaro in his hand. In addition, he is the class teacher, and because of his long-standing power, everyone gave him this nickname.

"rest assured"

Jiang Cheng was not polite at all, he was indeed hungry. He took the potato chips, and while watching the teacher turn around to write on the blackboard, he stuffed the chips into his mouth, then held the book upright to cover his chewing mouth. The potato chips tasted like delicacies from land and sea.

drop--

Jiang Cheng was startled. Why did the potato chips make such a noise when they were chewing? He looked around and found that no one heard the strange electronic sound. He immediately realized that the time traveler had received a benefit.

Although he did research in school in his previous life, he also had to cooperate with the integrated media department to do some popular science work. This part of the work requires frequent watching of short videos. Naturally, Jiang Cheng also surfed the video a lot, especially in 2024. Isn't it common sense that time travelers have golden fingers?

What is your cheat code? System, simulator?

Tongzi, system? System elder brother? System father? System grandpa? System ancestor? .......

However, no matter how Jiang Cheng called out, the golden finger did not respond. Jiang Cheng did not dare to continue investigating. After all, he was still in class, and it would be bad if he was caught slacking off by the teacher.

Finally, the bell rang for the end of get out of class, but Teacher Gao looked at Jiang Cheng and said, "get out of class is over. Jiang Cheng, come with me."

Zhao Yu instantly became nervous: "Brother, I told you to be careful when eating, so don't give me away when you go there."

"Don't worry, we have nothing to do with each other." Jiang Cheng made an OK gesture. We are such good friends, you definitely won't want to let me be punished alone, right?

...

"sit"

Following Teacher Gao all the way to the office, Teacher Gao pulled out a chair and placed it next to the desk. Jiang Cheng sat down obediently without saying a word. Never confess before the teacher asks you about specific matters.

"I asked you to come here this time..." Teacher Gao looked at the well-behaved student in front of him, his eyes revealing pity, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, something happened in your family, Jiang Cheng..."

"Ah?" Jiang Cheng was stunned. Something happened at home? Could it be what he thought?

"Something happened at home....what do you mean teacher?"

"It's just... uh..." Lao Gao tapped the table with his thumb, sighed, and said as if he had made up his mind: "Your parents who were abroad died in an accident."

"what??"

"From what I understand, the two of them were killed by the tsunami when they were on their way to the Hoenn region... The rescue workers at the scene only managed to recover the bodies of the two people."

"You have the right to know about this matter. There is another matter...that requires you to decide." Lao Gao took out two documents and placed them in front of Jiang Cheng.

"Your parents have inherited a hot spring center in the Alola region. If you inherit it, you may have to end your studies or transfer to the Alola region. What do you think?"

No, this is too sudden, isn't it? Isn't the Pokémon world safe? How did both parents suddenly die? And what about inheritance? Is it really okay for you to let a 14-year-old child decide like this?

Oh, in the Pokémon world, ten-year-old kids are running around the world, so that’s okay.

Chapter 2: The first employee: Sister Fa!

“This is my parents’ legacy?”

Standing on a remote street in the quiet city of Malie, Jiang Cheng was a little dumbfounded looking at the dilapidated wooden buildings in front of him.

Jiuwu Mountain is famous for its wine.

No, you two old people, you run a hot spring center in such a mess, how can you still go out to travel? How can you still have the heart to travel? At your age, how can you travel?

When facing the teacher at school, Jiang Cheng only hesitated for a moment before deciding to inherit the inheritance and come to Alola. After all, the opportunity to work twenty years less was right in front of him, so who could refuse?

If it weren't for this accident, I might still be a student in school. Of course, there's nothing wrong with being a student, but being the young master of Wenquan will give me a wider world to work with.

I never expected that after taking a plane across more than 10,000 kilometers from the sea to Alola, and standing in front of my parents' so-called legacy, I would see this kind of scene.

No, buddy?

Holding on to the last bit of fantasy, Jiang Cheng opened the door lock. After walking inside, his heart finally settled down.

The furniture inside has obviously been idle for a long time, with a rustic and weathered texture and covered with dust, so that the sunlight shining into the room can easily create the Dali Garden effect.

Covering my nose, I entered the hot spring area at the back. The hot spring area was divided into an outdoor area and a personal area, which was a large outdoor pool and a number of small single-room pools. The water was all sent from the hot spring below. However, the outdoor pool was very old, so there were a lot of dead branches and leaves floating on the water, and it was overgrown with weeds, and there were also many insect-type Pokémon in it.

If we want to reopen the business, we have to spend a lot of money on renovation.

So the question is, where does the money come from?

Before they passed away, the two old men left him some living expenses for that month. When the people from the Heritage Statistics Bureau counted the inheritance, they left him this piece of real estate. The rest of the cash was used to pay taxes. Now, Jiang Cheng only has 4200 yuan left in his pocket.

It's not easy to survive with this money, let alone run a hot spring parlor. And how long will it take to make a profit? Jiang Chengdu didn't have time to think about one thing because of his joy. Other places are fine, but this is the resort of Alola! There is a volcano next to it, and hot springs are everywhere. What's the difference between opening a hot spring parlor here and doing a coal mining business in Shanxi?

Thinking about the prices in this world, Jiang Cheng felt that the future was bleak.

He held the two small boxes and placed them on the table in the hot spring. After thinking for a while, he put another small box, put some small items of the original owner in it, and burned a stick of incense.

"You two, this is it. Look, your family is now complete. I am not being modest. I really can't run your hot spring center. I don't have the ability to do that, right?"

"I'm using your child's body now. I will definitely pay tribute to you and your little brother and fulfill my obligations. However, you two old people are also decent people. You know that in this world, even in the Pokémon world, it is not easy to survive without money. Let this hot spring hotel accompany you. I will use the money from the hot spring hotel to find a Feng Shui treasure land for your family, with beautiful mountains and clear waters. How nice it is to lie there, isn't it?"

"So, my idea is..."

[Detected that the host has obtained industry: Hot Spring Hall]

[You have unlocked the Pokémon Happy Healing Center (Level 1). Do you want to bind it? Yes/No]

"Old man, I may have spoken a little too loudly just now, please wait a moment."

Jiang Cheng closed his eyes and began to search for the source of the sound. Unlike before, this time he hardly had to spend any effort and saw a simple interface, with blue sky, green grass, and a building that was exactly the same as the shabby hot spring resort that Jiang Cheng inherited.

Jiang Cheng tried to touch the building, and soon a page popped up, [Do you want to bind? Yes/No]

Yes!

【Binding successful, welcome】

As the prompt sounded, Jiang Cheng's eyes suddenly went dark and a melodious music began to sound in his mind. The picture reappeared, still with the blue sky and green grass. The difference was that there were many more Pokémon on the grass. Growlithe was chasing Tootsie, a Walking Grass popped its head out, and Owl showed most of its head in the lower left corner. In the sky, a Dragonite was flying by.

"No, why did they suddenly start playing CG?"

A row of wooden signs slowly enters from the left side of the screen, with a few large characters made up of wooden boards on them: Pokémon Happy Healing Center.

"What an old-fashioned logo! Is this some kind of traditional business game?"

Jiang Cheng complained while waiting for the animation to end. He really didn't dare to skip, for fear that after skipping, some information would be missing and his life would be skipped as well.

Fortunately, he didn't have to wait too long, and the interface returned to what Jiang Cheng had seen before. This time, Jiang Cheng tried to touch the hut and had a completely different option: [Welcome to the Pokémon Happiness Healing Center, Director]

[Pokémon Happiness Healing Center is a place for healing and rest for Pokémon, dedicated to making every Pokémon who comes here healthy and happy]

[You will take over the management of the healing center and work hard to become a healing master in the eyes of Pokémon! ]

[The healing center is still a bit messy now, let’s clean it up]

[Mission: Clean up the healing hall]

[Reward: Decoration Acceleration Coupon x1]

At this moment, Jiang Cheng noticed a cartoon broom icon appeared in the lower right corner of the screen. He dragged the broom onto the building, and a rustling sound rang in his ears. The place swept by the broom could not be said to be completely new compared to before, but it was more or less a clear difference.

From the outside, it is obvious that the feeling of dilapidation is much less.

Clicking to enter, the door opened, but Jiang Cheng's pupils suddenly shrank.

Because there were three urns on the bar table inside the door, and a censer of incense was burning in front of them!

"No way......"

Jiang Cheng suddenly realized something and immediately exited consciousness, opened his eyes, ran out, opened the door and came to the courtyard, looking back at the hot spring hall. At this moment, the hot spring hall was exactly like the healing hall in his consciousness, without any sense of dirtiness or dilapidation.
