I opened a restaurant in the Pokémon world.

Curious, Heath took out a cleaver and cut it open to take a look. Inside was tender red meat, but no bones. The meat felt somewhat firm to the touch, giving the impression that there were bones inside, which gave Heath some strange thoughts.

Ready-made boneless chicken feet?

In his previous life, Heath loved eating chicken feet. After coming to this world, Heath also took out chicken feet and cooked them. The taste was still good, as always. However, looking at the legs of these mineral worms, Heath had some unique thoughts. He wondered if the legs of these mineral worms could be made into something similar to chicken feet.

Thinking of this, Heath decided to give it a try. He first took out three rock worm legs, cooked them, and then mixed them with other seasonings and put them into Dialuka's seasoning jar. When he took them out again, the legs had turned a little white. Curious, Heath took one out and took a bite. The shell of the leg was very hard, like biting into a crab shell, but it was easy to chew. Then it tasted like lemon chicken feet, sour, a little spicy, and a little sweet that you couldn't taste unless you tasted it carefully. The taste was great.

“Let’s do it this way.” Heath quickly decided how to prepare the rock worm’s legs. He deftly processed the legs in his hands. There were many legs, but fortunately they were all relatively small, making them very easy to process. Heath felt that these things couldn’t be treated as a formal dish. In Heath’s opinion, these things could only be eaten as snacks. After all, he could stuff four or five into his mouth in one bite. If he wasn’t afraid of poking his mouth or tongue, Heath could even eat ten at once, since they were so small.

The good thing is that it tastes pretty good. Heath quickly finished preparing all the legs of these rock worms and then served them to Giratina. Only then did Heath return to his kitchen. He opened the food encyclopedia in his hand, intending to check the exchange price of the rock worms.

【Ore rock insect】

Arthropods

[Rarity Level: Four Stars]

3,200 customer satisfaction points can be exchanged for one Mineral Creature.

[These rare insects, with an extremely low chance of being discovered, often live among rocks and minerals. They possess excellent camouflage, blending seamlessly into their surroundings. Due to their powerful mobility and escape abilities, even if you spot a rock beetle immediately, you might not be able to reach it in time, allowing it to escape deep into the rocks. They have very hard teeth, and catching them carries the risk of injury. Moreover, the pain from a rock beetle's bite is extremely intense, and its flesh is very tough. Only after removing all its legs can you savor the unparalleled delicacy inside.]

"Unparalleled delicacy?" Heath swallowed hard. He was tempted to try it, but this customer's satisfaction requirements were quite high. This was only a four-star food requirement. Heath wondered what the price would be if higher-star foods appeared later.

"It tastes good." Giratina finished eating all the rock bug food that Hiss had prepared. Then, Giratina slowly took out money to pay the bill and suddenly disappeared in front of Hiss. Before Hiss could find out where Giratina was, he felt a kick in his butt. Hiss's mouth twitched involuntarily.

Why does this scene seem so familiar?

Sure enough, when Hiss got up from the ground, he was back in the real world, and all his Pokémon were fast asleep in their Poké Balls.

You have completed the special mission and can now redeem your reward.

Immediately afterwards, a form popped up, and Heath picked it up curiously and took a look.

First up are the Purple Crab Lava Eel and the Mineral Worm, which cost 2, 4, and 6 points respectively. However, Heath isn't particularly interested in exchanging these items, since he can also exchange for these rare ingredients based on customer satisfaction. The events in Green Ridge City and the recent events at the Dark Grey City Science Museum have earned Heath a lot of customer satisfaction, so Heath plans to wait until he has nothing else to exchange before taking these items out.

[Sensitivity Potion: Increases the dexterity of your hands - 20 points]

Heath gasped. He'd only managed to accumulate fifty shop points from this mission, and that was after using two lava eels. Each bottle cost twenty points...

However, considering the powerful effects of the sensitivity potion, Heath gritted his teeth and exchanged for a bottle.

As a chef, talent is sometimes very important. Although he is reluctant to admit it, Heath also believes that talent is quite important for a chef, and the sensitivity potion can help Heath climb to the pinnacle of culinary skills.

[Inspiration Potion: Enhance your thinking skills and make it easier to generate wonderful inspirations - Thirty Points]

Heath's eyes were drawn to this bottle. Heath had never obtained this potion before, but looking at its name and effects, he gritted his teeth and bought one.

In an instant, all the points Heath had painstakingly accumulated throughout the night vanished.

"But the harvest seems to be pretty good." Heath was in fairly good spirits at the moment. After drinking two bottles of potion, Heath did not immediately feel any sense of great skill. Heath did not care. He checked the time and then drove the food truck towards the vegetable market in Dark Grey City. Heath planned to buy the ingredients he needed. It was almost time to start business for today.

Heath only planned to work until noon today. After lunch, he planned to close up shop. He needed to adjust his biological clock, otherwise, it wouldn't be good to have his day and night reversed.

Chapter 470 Noodle Soup

"Where did you just go?" Just as Heath was about to wake up his Pokémon and take them to wash up, he saw Mew. Mew was hovering curiously on the sofa in the living room, looking at him with a look of doubt and inquiry in its big eyes.

"Huh? When did you arrive?" Heath was somewhat surprised. Could it be that Mew could sense the existence of the Distortion World? However, Psychic-type Pokémon often have some unique features, such as their astonishing ability to predict the future. Skilled Psychic Pokémon can even master this move to an unparalleled degree, which is quite terrifying.

"I just played this game four times recently." Mew's tail swayed, and it pointed to the TV behind it, which showed the completion screen of a Musou-style game. Heath glanced at it; it seemed that Mew had realized it had suddenly appeared in the dining car.

Hiss scratched his head, but it seemed that he wasn't forbidden from talking to other Pokémon about the Reverse World. Although he couldn't talk to other humans, it should be fine to talk to Mew, right?

"I went to a strange place. It was all gray and gloomy, and I don't know why." However, Heath decided to keep quiet. Mew's curiosity was just too strong. Who knows if Mew would want to go to the Reverse World if it found out? But unless a Pokémon is Ghost-type, there's only one way to get to the Reverse World. Of course, unless you know Giratina, then maybe Giratina can take you in.

Mew swished its tail indifferently, then followed Seath to the bathroom to begin its daily grooming routine. Seath also woke up his Pokémon. After a quick wash, Seath drove his food truck to the market in Pewter City. Today, Seath planned to introduce a Rockbug. After all, Seath had already checked and found that his Pewter City achievement quest was incomplete. He guessed that serving Giratina in the Distortion World didn't count as an option to complete the quest, so Seath needed to serve guests again in Pewter City to complete this unique achievement.

After buying the ingredients she needed for the day, Heath carried her bags back to the dining car. Today, Heath planned to make a rather unique breakfast: rice noodle soup. This is a very local specialty breakfast. Heath had tried it once during her travels in her previous life, and the taste was quite good. Heath herself liked it quite a bit. Moreover, rice noodle soup can be filled with a lot of ingredients to enhance its flavor and texture, so overall it's quite refreshing to eat.

It can also be paired with some local specialties from the Minnan region for an even better taste, but Heath didn't make any this time, since just rice noodle soup would suffice.

A serving of rice noodle soup doesn't take long, but preparing the ingredients is a bit troublesome. After all, this is Shenhui City, not the Minnan region of her previous life, so there are no special ingredients. Heath has to make it herself. However, when Heath went to eat rice noodle soup with her friends before, she learned how to make it out of curiosity about a chef. So it's not too difficult to make it now. By the time Heath's food cart arrived at the daily business location, Heath had already finished making the rice noodle soup.

"Trainer, is this porridge?" Zoroark asked Hiss curiously. Hiss's lips twitched. Although the noodle soup did look somewhat like porridge, the ingredients and preparation process were still different.

“No, this is… anyway, it’s breakfast.” Heath swallowed the noodle paste in his mouth, then licked his lips. After hesitating for a moment, he still didn’t explain the real name of this thing to Zoroark. After all, if Zoroark asked why it was called noodle paste, Heath would have to find a way to explain, which would be too troublesome. It was better to just give a perfunctory answer.

"Oh." Zoroark pursed its lips, but it didn't press the matter further and continued eating its breakfast. Mew, on the other hand, was eating while chatting with Zoroark. Seeing the two little guys chatting happily, Heath's expression became a bit strange. Heath knew Mew, a Psychic-type Pokémon, while Zoroark was a Dark-type. He didn't know what Mew was thinking. Of all its Pokémon, Zoroark seemed to be the one it was closest to, besides Charmeleon.

Thinking of Charmeleon, Heath couldn't help but turn his head to look. Charmeleon was eating its breakfast there, but even so, Charmeleon had some iron blocks strapped to its arms. Charmeleon had bought them with its own wages, and Heath had made them for it.

"Sigh." Heath sighed. He regretted telling Charizard that he had seen people train by strapping themselves with iron weights or sandbags, and even saying that removing the weights and sandbags would dramatically increase their speed. That was simply...

However, Heath did consider Charmeleon's feelings. After Charmeleon made the request, Heath called Mr. Fujiyama to ask if the method would work. Mr. Fujiyama was stunned for a few seconds on the phone before gently telling Heath that it would be better to buy lighter iron blocks, as this would be better for the Pokémon's joints.

In reality, this kind of exercise method is not very advisable. If it were, then the national team athletes of my previous life would have used it long ago. It's like how if a person who is overweight wants to lose weight, it's best to start by controlling their diet and intake. If a person who is overweight tries to lose weight by running, it will be very bad for their knees because the weight is too great and the joints will bear a lot of pressure.

Therefore, sometimes losing weight is not something you can do blindly or haphazardly, but requires scientific methods.

Fortunately, the iron blocks on Charmeleon's body were not heavy and did not affect its joints.

Snorlax, on the other hand, seems carefree and lives a happy life. Heath thinks Snorlax is probably the epitome of lying down. This guy's favorite thing to do every day is to sleep and eat. Heath can't understand why Snorlax can sleep so much.

"Snorlax, do you want to go to the amusement park?" Hiss asked Snorlax. He had promised Snorlax that he would take it to play, but it seemed that he hadn't been able to do so recently.

"Buzz?" Snorlax turned its head in confusion, holding a large pot of noodle soup in its hand, with some of it stuck to its mouth.

Chapter 471 Sister Feng's Thoughts

Pewter City naturally has an amusement park. Because of the existence of Pokémon, amusement parks in this world are designed to be accessible to Pokémon. However, after looking at the amusement park information, Heath discovered that Snorlax seemed unable to ride it. After all, given Snorlax's size and weight, it couldn't ride most of the amusement park rides, which left Heath speechless.

But thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. Some amusement park rides in my previous life also had height and weight requirements. If you exceeded a certain standard, you couldn't ride. This was to ensure the safety of tourists. Actually, there's nothing to say about it. After all, amusement parks are places for fun, not places for cremation.

"There must be some Pokémon amusement park that doesn't cater to heavy Pokémon, right?" Hiss fell into deep thought. He opened his phone and searched, and he actually found an amusement park that caters to Pokémon, with facilities that even heavy Pokémon like Snorlax could enjoy. However, looking at the location, Hiss felt that this goal was probably a bit far away, because the amusement park was actually in Vermilion City.

The location of Kurenai City is quite far, separated by several cities. Even if Heath takes the highway, it will take several days to get there. However, Kurenai City is also very famous. It is known as the most prosperous city in the Kanto region, which is actually quite true, since Kurenai City is a port city with a large number of cargo ships and cruise ships coming and going every day.

"As expected of Fallen Leaf City." Heath scratched his head. Fallen Leaf City is like the Metropolis of the Indigo League. Basically, the headquarters of all kinds of large companies and enterprises are located in Fallen Leaf City. It is also one of the two most expensive areas in the Indigo League. The other area is the Indigo League headquarters that Heath had visited before.

Heath scratched his head. After Phantom City closed for business, Heath actually planned to go to Lavender Town. After all, according to Maple, he seemed to have a house there that he could inherit, and his parents seemed to be researching something. Heath planned to go and take a look. Also, he had an old customer in Lavender Town. So Heath planned to skip Cerulean City and go to Lavender Town first. As for Vermilion City, Heath felt that he could arrange it as his next destination. Cerulean City would have to wait for now.

After telling Snorlax that he would take him to the amusement park in Vermilion City, Snorlax became much happier. Hiss chuckled and patted Snorlax's belly before leaving the lounge to begin preparing for the day's business.

"Heath, what did you do last night?" Feng Jie came up shortly after Heath opened for business. She looked at Heath with a puzzled expression. This morning, she had planned to check if Heath had woken up, but to her surprise, Heath's food cart was no longer in the parking lot.

Curious, I checked the security footage and discovered that Heath's food truck had been rescued the previous night and hadn't returned all night.

"Good morning, Sister Feng. I tried entertaining some guests last night, but it didn't go very well." Heath said with a smile to Sister Feng. Heath had already thought of this excuse. Anyway, Heath had never entertained guests after midnight before. Now that he said he was trying to expand his business, Sister Feng probably wouldn't say anything.

Jun Shafeng looked at Heath with a puzzled expression, but now that she heard that, it made sense that Heath had been sleeping earlier. After all, the best way to deal with staying up late is to rest beforehand and then stay up late after you've had enough rest, which would put less strain on your body.

"Sigh, make me something to eat. I went to the cafeteria this morning and found that it wasn't your breakfast, so I didn't have much of an appetite." Sister Feng sighed, then sat down opposite Heath. Zoroark smiled and poured Sister Feng a glass of lemonade. Sister Feng took a sip without suspicion. Luckily, Old Feng wasn't there, otherwise Heath was worried that Old Feng could smell Zoroark's scent.

"Is Sister Feng in a bad mood?" Heath asked while making beef noodles for Sister Feng. Heath knew Sister Feng quite well; she was someone who would eat on time no matter how busy she was. Sister Feng had once said that good health was the foundation of her work, and in order to fulfill her duties as Sister Feng, she paid great attention to the health of herself and her teammates.

However, there is one situation where Sister Feng also doesn't have time to eat properly, and that is when she is working.

It's not Officer Jenny's working hours right now, so if Officer Jenny isn't eating, Heath thinks the most likely reason is that she's not in a good mood. And Heath has already figured out the reason: yesterday's mining accident.

"Yeah, after living in Changqing City for so long, I always feel that safety and peace are such commonplace and ordinary things." Jun Shafeng took a sip of lemonade with a complicated expression, and then sighed.

Heath put the noodles into the pot, prepared the braised beef, and washed some mint.

“After all, that’s Changqing City.” Heath nodded. It’s not that Changqing City never has murders, but compared to other cities, such cases are really rare. Once one happens, it’s usually enough to be talked about on Changqing City TV for several days, with several programs like “Today’s Talk” airing.

“…I’ve applied for a transfer.” Jun Shafeng suddenly said this, and Heath, who was stirring noodles in the pot, was stunned. His hands stopped, and he turned to look at Sister Feng in surprise. If Jun Shafeng hadn’t said it so seriously, Heath would have thought it was an April Fool’s joke.

"Huh?" Heath looked at Officer Jenny with a blank expression.

“I’ve applied for a transfer. I think Changqing City is a place where older, more experienced people can retire. I want to help more people.” Jun Shafeng picked up her lemonade and drank it all in one gulp, speaking earnestly. Heath blinked; the news was somewhat sudden and surprising.

Heath knew that Feng Jie wasn't used to the peaceful daily life in Evergreen City. Feng Jie was particularly energetic and proactive, and she had once told Heath in the dormitory that she didn't want to retire here, but she had never actually done so.

"...So, do you agree?" Heath was a little nervous. Actually, he didn't want Feng to go to other cities. Evergreen City was so much better; it had the lowest crime rate, and the number of Officer Jenny's deaths was probably the lowest there. But other cities...

Heath was actually very scared. He was afraid that one day he would see two Officer Jennys in white uniforms come to his door, holding a piece of clothing and an urn.

Chapter 472 Steamed Pork with Rice Flour

“Agreed. Actually, our family has always thought that Evergreen City is a good place to retire. It's just that I happened to be assigned here before, and the other members of my family weren't interested in going, so they didn't come.” Sister Feng nodded. Heath opened his mouth, then fell silent. He didn't know what to say. Sister Feng still left Evergreen City. Heath took a deep breath and could only hope that Sister Feng could go to a relatively safer city, or that there was some way to protect herself. Officer Jenny was truly in the most dangerous city in the Pokémon League.

"Where did you go, Feng-jie?" Heath asked Jun Shafeng. Jun Shafeng fiddled with the cup in her hand; Zoroark had just poured her another glass of lemonade.

Heath's lemonade is very simple to make. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze out the juice, then add an appropriate amount of white sugar, and finally pour in cold water. Remember not to use hot water, as it will ruin the taste of the lemonade. If you want the best flavor, you can also put the blended lemonade in the refrigerator to chill it, which will also make it taste better.

However, you can add some honey, but Heath still prefers to add white sugar.

"Vermilion City. Captain Officer Jenny there is getting old and has been injured before, so she has to retire early. Now the family has arranged for me to go there to take over." When Maple mentioned her new post, her expression seemed much better. Heath was also stunned when she heard this. Vermilion City is a big city. Heath had been thinking of finding time to go to Vermilion City to take Snorlax to the Pokémon amusement park. He didn't expect that Maple would go there now.

However, Heath remembered that the security situation in Konoha City was quite good. This was probably because it was the largest port city in the Kanto region, so the police force in Konoha City was very strong. But the most important thing was that the Kanto headquarters of Interpol was also located in Konoha City, which meant that Konoha City occasionally had a crime rate, but it was slightly better than other cities.

However, that place also has a characteristic: if nothing goes wrong, it's fine, but once something does happen, it's usually a big deal. So Heath was still a little nervous. But Heath also knew that once Officer Jenny made a decision, no one else's opinion mattered. Besides, the transfer had already been approved, and Officer Jenny was definitely going to Kuye City.

"Sister Feng, here's your beef noodles." Heath handed the beef noodles to Sister Feng, and then casually prepared some pickled scallions for her as a side dish.

While beef noodles taste great on their own, adding some pickled vegetables makes them even better and adds a richer flavor. Pickled vegetables usually enhance the overall taste.

Heath had no intention of trying to persuade Feng. Having spent four years with Feng, Heath knew very well what kind of person she was. Since persuasion was futile, Heath thought it would be better to wish Feng a safe journey.

"Your breakfasts are getting better and better. When you come to Kurenai City, you'll have to cook for me at Officer Jenny's headquarters. I'm counting on you to help me win over the people there." Officer Jenny took a bite of the beef noodles Heath made and nodded contentedly. She then smiled at Heath and said this. Heath nodded, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Using food to win over Officer Jennys in other regions was quite an idea, but thinking about it carefully, it didn't seem to make a problem. After all, the chefs in Officer Jenny's canteens were often not as good as Heath.

Heath's four years living in Evergreen City spoiled the appetites of the city's Officer Jenny residents.

After Sister Feng finished her noodles, she stood up to leave. Heath looked at Sister Feng's spirited appearance and couldn't help but smile. Sister Feng was so cool like this, with a unique personal charm. It seemed that as long as Sister Feng was in front of him, nothing was worth being afraid of.

"Sister Feng, have a safe trip. I'll come to Kuye City to find you when the time comes." Heath waved with a smile as he watched Sister Feng's figure disappear. Sister Feng nodded, then turned and left without any hesitation or girlish affectation. That's Sister Feng for you—a generous and open person.

After watching Sister Feng leave, Heath finally breathed a sigh of relief. He calmly looked at his food cart, which was still empty. However, as breakfast time approached, he figured there would be more guests.

Today, Heath plans to make a unique dish: steamed pork with rice flour. This dish doesn't exist in this world. However, Heath intends to launch it as a special set meal limited to the Three Kingdoms period to see if it can attract customers. Heath had considered whether to make steamed pork with rice flour or pork with tofu skin, but after thinking for a while, Heath decided to make steamed pork with rice flour. After all, steamed pork with rice flour is relatively easier to make and has a very unique taste.

Steamed pork with rice flour was a well-known home-style dish in my previous life. However, the technical requirements for this dish were somewhat high, though not extremely high. It was easier than making dishes like Wensi Tofu. The technical difficulty lay in making the rice flour for steamed pork. In my previous life, you could buy rice flour for steamed pork directly, and it was also sold in the market. However, the steamed pork made this way often tasted ordinary. Those steamed pork shops with particularly good business usually had their own unique recipes.

Heath took out the pork she had just bought that day from the refrigerator. Pork is generally used for making steamed pork with rice flour, and it is best to use pork with a good balance of fat and lean meat. You can also prepare some lean meat to meet the different needs of different customers. In addition, you will also need potatoes.

Cut the potatoes into chunks and the pork into slices. The slices shouldn't be too thin or too thick; ideally, they should be evenly sliced ​​with both lean and fat. This will result in a better texture and flavor for the steamed pork. However, the downside is that it might feel a bit greasy if you eat too much. That's when lean pork comes in handy.

Although lean meat isn't perfect in Heath's opinion, it does suit some discerning customers who, for various reasons, can't or refuse to eat fatty meat. In these cases, lean meat allows customers to enjoy the deliciousness of steamed pork with rice flour. However, compared to the texture of meat with alternating layers of fat and lean meat, lean meat lacks a unique flavor.

Heath felt that it was the unique flavor of fatty meat, and that lean meat could not produce that flavor at all. Only fatty meat could give guests that unique taste.
