Elf: Seriously? You only get a cheat code when you're about to die?

Chapter 140 He got caught eating alone!

Anjie took out another Poké Ball and tried to put Infernape into it, but still failed.

The fact that it can't be put into a Poké Ball means that this Infernape already has an owner!

Left with no other choice, Anjie took off his own clothes, wrapped the Infernape in them, and then picked it up.

Before rushing to the Pokémon Center, Angie called the fire department to report the fire at the amusement park, but the fire department told him that there were fires all over the city.

Helpless, he had no choice but to take Infernape to the Pokémon Center first, since the fire at the amusement park had already been extinguished.

As Anja and Diancie headed towards the Pokémon Center with Infernape, they indeed saw flames flashing all around Azoth City, with the sounds of police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances blaring.

Could all of this be the work of Infernape? Anjie couldn't help but glance at the unconscious Infernape in his arms.

No! If it was just a fire, why would police cars be dispatched?

Unable to figure it out, Anjie had no choice but to put the matter out of her mind.

Unbeknownst to Anjie, the training grounds were completely exposed because of the Infernape, and someone immediately called the police.

The police in the capital city of Azot were extremely efficient; in almost no time, the entire arena was surrounded by police.

The people in the arena fought desperately with the police to avoid being arrested.

Upon receiving the news, Ji Meiya immediately led her people to the scene.

The thugs thought they could leave safely once they had captured the princess as a hostage, but little did they know that the princess was also a powerful trainer. She commanded an Alola Ninetales and a Shiny Gardevoir, and quickly defeated the thugs.

Soon all the people at the animal training farm were captured.

Of course, the princess and her companions were able to capture all the villains so easily thanks to the earlier rampage by Infernape, which injured most of the strong trainers in the training ground.

When Anja and Diancie arrived at the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy immediately came to greet them, looking at the Infernape in Anja's arms in shock.

"Could this... be that Infernape that caused such a ruckus in the city?"

The scene of Infernape causing havoc in the city had already been filmed and uploaded to the internet.

Anjie replied, "I don't know either. I encountered it in the amusement park. It burned the amusement park down. Diancie defeated it, and then it passed out."

Miss Joey said, "Let's treat it first!"

Anja nodded and placed Infernape on the cart that Chansey had brought.

Watching Nurse Joy and Chansey escort Infernape into the emergency room, Anja and Diancie breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go sit over there and wait," Ange said to Tianxi.

Tianxi nodded: "Okay."

The person and their Pokémon walked to the table in the Pokémon Center lobby and sat down.

But as soon as they sat down, Tianxi's stomach started growling.

Anjie asked with a smile, "Are you hungry?"

Tianxi nodded shyly.

Crafting sacred diamonds is extremely physically demanding, and since they hadn't had dinner yet, Diancie was naturally hungry.

Suddenly, Anjie had a brilliant idea and said to Tianxi, "You wait here."

With that, Anjie got up and ran away.

After waiting for a while, Tianxi saw Anjie return, carrying two large bowls. When Anjie placed the bowls in front of it, it realized that they were two large bowls of ramen.

The ramen, served with vibrant green vegetables and topped with two perfectly shaped poached eggs, looks incredibly appetizing.

Anja sat down opposite Diancie again, and said with a smile, "I made this in the kitchen at the Pokémon Center, so please make do with it."

He only used the fire from the Elf Center kitchen; the other pots, bowls, ingredients, and seasonings were all from his own system inventory.

Steam rose from the ramen, and the aroma wafted to her nose, causing Diancie to swallow unconsciously.

Anjax across from them was already slurping its food, and Diancie, seeing this, also picked up her chopsticks and started eating. The two of them, one human and one Pokémon, were eating rather ravenously, as if they were having a feast.

They quickly finished the large bowl of ramen, and Anjie was still not satisfied, even drinking the soup.

"That's great!" Anjie said after wiping his mouth.

Diancie gracefully wiped her mouth, and after finishing, she put down the tissue and said, "Delicious."

Suddenly, Anjie had a brilliant idea and said, "What do you think about us opening a ramen shop?"

"Open a ramen shop?" Tianxi asked, puzzled.

Anjie excitedly said, "That's right, it'll be located at Munchlax's house. It'll be open in the morning selling breakfast, and from the afternoon to the evening selling ramen."

Now there are four of them: Munchlax is in charge of the Diancie Dining Hall, he and Lizard sell breakfast at Munchlax's House, and Gengar is always idle. It either helps out at the Diancie Dining Hall or helps out at Munchlax's House, so it generally has nothing to do.

If this continues, wouldn't all the cooking skills it has learned be wasted?

Since that's the case, why not let Gengar run the ramen shop during the evenings and nights at Munchlax's house!

The more Ange thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, so he told Tianxi about the plan.

After listening, Tianxi nodded. "I think it's very feasible."

Anja said happily, "We'll talk to Gengar when we get home."

Just then, Anjie's phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was a video call from Munchlax. He then realized that he hadn't called home to let them know he was safe since it was so late.

After Anjie answered the call, he saw an image of Munchlax projected in front of him.

"Gang~ Gang~" Master, where are you? Why aren't you back yet?

In the video, the little Munchlax leans its head close to the screen, its face full of anxiety.

Anjie quickly replied, "Something came up and I forgot to call you. Tianxi and I are both fine, don't worry."

Upon hearing this, the little Snorlax's expression immediately relaxed, and then it asked:

"Gang~ Gang~" Where are you guys? When are you coming back? I'm waiting for you guys to train together!

Anjie glanced at the time and shook his head helplessly. "I don't know either. If it's too late, you guys can go to the training room to train first, and then go to sleep."

The little Snorlax shook its head upon hearing this.

"Gang~" I need to wait for my master.

After saying that, it hung up the phone immediately.

Anjie shook her head helplessly at her current situation.

Seeing this, Diancie couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. "Looks like your little apprentice is being disobedient!"

Anja immediately retorted, "No way! Munchlax is the most obedient!"

Anjie had just finished her call with Munchlax when the phone rang again. This time it was Himeya calling.

After the call was connected, Ji Meiya's voice came from the other end of the line.

"Your Highness, is that Flame Monkey with you?" Himeya asked.

"How did you know?" Anjie looked surprised.

"Someone took pictures of Diancie battling Infernape at the amusement park, and there are also photos of you running around in the street carrying Infernape," Himeya replied.

Anjie: ...

"What exactly happened?" Anjie asked, puzzled. "Why is Infernape so enraged that it's causing chaos in the royal city and setting fires everywhere?"

"Here's what happened..."

Ji Meiya has already investigated the matter thoroughly and told An Jie everything.

After hearing this, Anjie angrily slammed her fist on the table. "These people are despicable!"

Ji Meiya said, "Your Highness, rest assured, those people will receive their due punishment. However, I would like to ask you for a favor."

Anjie: "Go ahead."

Ji Meiya said, "I would like to ask Your Highness to temporarily take in the Flame Monkey. I will pick it up after I have finished dealing with my matters here."

Although the people at the animal training center were all arrested, their accomplices, including the person who brought the Infernape to the training center, are still at large.

Anjie nodded without hesitation and said, "Don't worry, leave Infernape to me. I'll take good care of it."

"Then I'll trouble you, Your Highness."

After hanging up the phone, Anjie sighed deeply, thinking about what had happened to Infernape.

"What's wrong?" Tianxi asked.

So Ange told Diancie about Infernape, and now it was just the two of them sighing together.

Nurse Joy and Chansey were busy for almost two hours before they came out. Angie quickly went up to them and asked, "Nurse Joy, how's Infernape?"

Miss Joey sighed and said, "The injury is too severe; I'm afraid it will require some time to recover. Fortunately, it's not life-threatening."

Anjie breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that there's no danger to my life. The injuries will eventually heal."

Miss Joy asked, "What does Your Highness intend to do with Infernape? Leave it at the Pokémon Center, or take it with you?"

Anjie replied, "I'd better take it with me. If it wakes up and goes berserk at the Pokémon Center, you won't be able to control it."

Miss Joy agreed, and nodded, saying, "I'll prescribe some medicine. Your Highness, please take it back and have it take it on time. Once it finishes the medicine, its injuries should be almost healed. If you have any problems, please call me anytime, or bring Infernape to the Pokémon Center."

Anjie nodded and said, "Okay."

After listening to Miss Joy's instructions on caring for Infernape's injuries, Ange and Diancie took the still unconscious Infernape back to their home on the Nebel Plateau.

When he and Diancie arrived home, they found Snorlax, Lizard, Gengar, Komamura, Brutus, Magearna, Metagross, and Volcanion all fast asleep on the sofa.

Bubo lay sprawled out, blowing snot bubbles from his nose, and holding his phone in his hand.

Angie and Tianxi exchanged a glance, then smiled silently.

After putting Infernape in the guest room, Anja and Diancie returned to the living room and then put Snorlax, Lizard, and Komaru back in their rooms one by one.

However, when Anjay picked up Gengar, Gengar groggily opened its eyes, and when it realized that it was Anjay who had returned, it showed surprise and delight.

Anjie quickly made a quiet gesture to it.

Gengar immediately covered its mouth, then, imitating Anjay, grinned, put its finger to its lips, and squinted at Anjay.

With Gengar's help, Ange also sent Bulbasaur, Metagross, Magearna, and Volcanion back to their room.

After waking up, Gengar couldn't fall back asleep. It sat in the living room with Angel and Diancie for a while, chatting. Then, with their three Pokémon hungry, Angel suggested:

"Want to grab a late-night snack?"

The ramen he ate that night was too easy to digest, and his stomach was now completely empty.

The proposal was unanimously approved by Gengar and Diancie.

Tianxi covered her mouth and chuckled, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to eat alone?"

"Geng~ Geng~"

Upon hearing this, Gengar couldn't help but laugh along with Diancie.

"Who told them to all be asleep?" Anjie blinked and asked.

Then, one person and two Pokémon went down to the third floor. Diancie and Gengar waited outside, while Ange went into the kitchen to get busy.

Soon, the sound of chopping vegetables and a rich aroma filled the kitchen.

Anjie wanted to have hot pot for a late-night snack. Luckily, he had some leftover hot pot base that he had prepared earlier, which was stored in the refrigerator. All he had to do was cook it and chop some vegetables.

"Ready? You two come in and help serve the dishes," Anjie's voice came from the kitchen.

Diancie and Gengar quickly went inside and brought out plates of chopped vegetables, including bok choy, tofu, kelp strips, bean sprouts, lotus root slices, potato slices, beef rolls, pork rolls, and so on.

Those bean sprouts were grown by An Jie herself using rolling beans.

The lotus root slices grew in the pond next to the vegetable garden. They are now ready to eat and are very delicious. The wild lotus root from the original Nibel Plateau is far superior to them.

Once everything was ready, the three Pokémon and one person sat around a table and started eating.

Anjie picked up a piece of cooked tofu and put it in her mouth, exclaiming, "Delicious!"

This tofu was made by Anjie's own family using rolled soybeans, and it tastes so much better than tofu made from soybeans bought from outside.

Thanks to the combined effects of the tillage skill and the grassy field, Anjie's first batch of rolling beans has fully matured, and the ones planted now are the second crop.

Just as Anjie and the others were enjoying their meal, Bubo, with his eyes closed and his nose twitching, came down from upstairs, feeling his way along the railing.

As soon as it got downstairs, the rich aroma in the air instantly woke it up from its daze. When it saw what Anjie and the others were doing, it stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

"Bu~Bu~" You guys are sneaking food!

As it spoke, it quickly climbed onto the chair, then looked at the table full of dishes and the fragrant hot pot, its mouth watering.

Anjie brought a bowl and chopsticks and placed them in front of it, saying, "I'll eat with you, but don't you dare tell on me tomorrow."

"Bu~Bu~" I went to sleep early that night and didn't know anything!

Bubo said in a serious tone, then picked up his chopsticks and put his favorite dishes into the pot. He liked to eat meat, so beef, pork, fish... he poured them all into the pot.

After finishing their meal, the three Pokémon sat outside for a while, and then Ange started thinking about opening a ramen shop. So he said to Gengar:

"Gengar, you've been learning cooking from me for a while now. Have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"

"Geng?"

Hearing this, Gengar was confused and gently shook its head.

So Anjie said, "I have an idea now, listen to it and see if it works."

"Gen~" Gengar nodded.

"Isn't it true that Munchlax and I only work at Munchlax's house in the mornings? Munchlax is free in the afternoons and evenings. I was thinking, how about you start running a ramen shop at Munchlax's house from the evenings onwards?"

Gengar was surprised that its master would entrust it with such an important task. It first stared wide-eyed in disbelief, then excitedly picked up Anja and flew up, carrying Anja and spinning around in the air.

"Geng~ Geng~~"

Its excited laughter echoed in the night sky.

Anjie hadn't expected Gengar to be so happy, so she let Gengar hug her. Soon she was spinning around so much she felt dizzy, so she could only say:

"Gengar, if you keep spinning like that, I'm going to get dizzy."

Gengar then put Anjay down and scratched the back of his head sheepishly.

"Are you that happy?" Anjie asked.

"Geng~~"

Gengar nodded, blushing.

Anjie chuckled and patted its round belly, saying, "Then you'll have to practice hard during this time. If your cooking skills aren't up to par, the customers won't be satisfied."

"Geng~"

Gengar clenched its fist, indicating that it would not let its master down.

"Bu~Bu~"

At this moment, Bubo excitedly circled around Gengar.

Anjie said speechlessly, "Gengar wants to open a ramen shop, what's so exciting about that?"

"Bu~Bu~" Because I want to eat ramen every day from now on!

Bu Bo put his hands on his hips in a serious manner.

"You! All you ever do is gluttonize!"

Anjie pulled the cloth close to her chest and rubbed it vigorously.

"Bu~Bu~Bu~"

Bubo burst into laughter when Anjie tickled his ticklish spot.
