I opened a restaurant in the Pokémon world.

Chapter 707 The Mouse and the Cat Sit Together

The method for making dry pot shrimp is not complicated. The only troublesome part is probably removing the shrimp veins by deveining them. When Heath first processed shrimp, he found that the shrimp veins were particularly difficult to remove, which frustrated him a lot. However, after making them more often, Heath learned how to remove the shrimp veins. Later on, Heath could remove the shrimp veins quickly and cleanly, and he could even devein shrimp without looking at the knife. However, this is not a good habit. Even the most experienced chefs sometimes accidentally cut their hands, so it is still necessary to concentrate when cooking.

"Heath? It really is you!" A familiar voice called out. Heath paused for a moment, then looked up and saw Ms. Lori staring at him with surprise and delight. Beside Ms. Lori were four other people—three men and one woman. Heath didn't recognize them, but he recognized Lori. Moreover, Heath noticed that Ms. Lori wasn't wearing her usual clothes today, but rather a uniform. Heath immediately figured out what Ms. Lori had come for.

"Good afternoon, Ms. Lori. Would you like something to eat?" Seeing an acquaintance is always a pleasant surprise, and Heath himself was quite delighted. However, after glancing at Ms. Sabrina, who had suddenly become serious, Heath felt that Ms. Sabrina was probably the most nervous person in the restaurant right now. After all, Ms. Sabrina was a member of Team Rocket, and she and Ms. Lori, an Alliance Investigator, were natural adversaries.

What's more, Ms. Lori brought her teammates with her this time, a total of five Alliance Investigators, which instantly quieted the restaurant down considerably. This wasn't because Hiss's restaurant was full of outlaws, but because Alliance Investigators often had rather special identities. It was like in my previous life, if you saw a police officer in a police uniform come in while you were eating, you would subconsciously feel a bit nervous.

"Haha, I really didn't expect you to be in Fallen Leaf City. Ever since you left Evergreen City, I've been so bored." Ms. Lori walked over happily. As she passed Miss Sabrina, Lori glanced at her but didn't say anything. Instead, she walked over enthusiastically and looked at Heath happily. Heath was a little amused and exasperated. Ms. Lori was still Ms. Lori. Her personality was truly unique.

Then four other Alliance investigators walked in. Heath had never seen these investigators before, which was normal, since there were quite a few Alliance investigators, not just these few.

"I'm still traveling in Kanto right now, but I've acquired some very interesting things during this time: a secret seasoning from the Padia region. I guarantee it will make you, Ms. Lori, very satisfied." Heath was also very happy because he had already seen a large black creature emerge from behind Ms. Lori—it was Gengar. Heath then skillfully played a game of rock-paper-scissors with Gengar.

Seeing Lori's Gengar playing rock-paper-scissors with Hiss, the expressions of Lori's teammates behind her were a bit strange. They had heard from their Pokémon that Lori's Gengar especially liked playing rock-paper-scissors, and even the kind with penalties. At first, they were wondering why Lori's Gengar suddenly liked playing rock-paper-scissors, but now they seemed to know the reason.

"...You lost again, Gengar. This time it's... Hmm, I need to go back and check my notebook..." Heath looked at Gengar triumphantly. Gengar was too easy to predict. This time it threw scissors, and Heath won with rock. However, Heath hadn't played rock-paper-scissors with Lori's Gengar in a long time, so Heath didn't actually have the notebook that recorded his wins and losses with Gengar.

Gengar sulked and shrank back, its face clearly showing its displeasure. Lori watched with a smile, not blaming Heath. She knew that her Gengar also wanted to play rock-paper-scissors with Heath. The two little guys seemed to be locked in a battle of wills, which was both funny and exasperating.

"Don't try to sell me any winning strategies this time~" Ms. Lori smiled playfully. Heath touched his nose sheepishly. Ms. Lori was clearly a woman in her thirties, but she was very well-maintained, so she still looked very charming. You would think she was only in her twenties.

"Ahem... Ms. Lori, what would you like to eat?" Heath poured the chopped ingredients into the large pot and began to stir-fry. A rich aroma wafted out. Heath's dry pot was made with a special sauce he had specially prepared. The advantage of this was that the taste was excellent and the ingredients were easy to absorb the flavor. The most important thing about the ingredients in the dry pot was that they needed to be flavorful. If they weren't, the taste would be worse.

Fortunately, dry pot shrimp doesn't have this problem, because dry pot shrimp usually requires deveining the shrimp, so the shrimp is easy to flavor and there is no problem with it not being flavorful. However, if it is a larger piece, such as ribs, then you need to make cuts to help it absorb the flavor.

"Hmm... what is this?" Ms. Lori asked curiously, looking at what Heath had made in his hand.

Heath quickly explained to Lori, and then Heath saw Ms. Lori talking with her companions for a while before turning around.

“Heath, some of my colleagues like to eat squid, some like to eat beef, I like to eat shrimp, and she likes to eat pork. I was wondering if it would be possible to mix the ingredients we want to eat together?” Lori was clearly eager to eat this, but she was also a little hesitant because her teammates all had different food preferences.

“Ah… that’s certainly possible. There are two ways to solve this. The first is that I’ll make it separately for you. The second is that if you don’t mind, I can make a mixed dry pot for you.” Heath explained, and after getting her colleague’s consent, Lori chose the mixed dry pot, and Heath had no objections.

Instead, after preparing the dry pot shrimp he had on hand, he had Zoroark serve it to Miss Naz, while Heath began preparing the assorted dry pot that Ms. Lori and the others planned to eat.

Assorted dry pot is actually a mixed stew. It looks simple, but there are some things to pay attention to. The key lies in the ingredients. Squid has a strong flavor, and if it is not handled properly, it will cause the flavors to mix. In addition, there are different cooking times for different ingredients, so it is a bit difficult to cook.

Chapter 708 Have you ever seen a Pikachu with three high stats?

Histo, chin in hand, looked at the scene before him and couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing. Miss Sabrina was currently surrounded by a group of Alliance investigators. Well, that's not quite the right word, since strictly speaking, it was because Histo's dining car was full, so Ms. Lori and the others had to sit there as well, and they just happened to be sitting next to Miss Sabrina. Histo couldn't help but laugh at Miss Sabrina's expression; she looked like a student who had just discovered her homeroom teacher sitting right next to her while eating lunch.

“Miss Sabrina is really…” Heath shook his head. However, Miss Sabrina’s mental fortitude is quite strong. After all, she is a person who can become a League Gym Leader. If she didn’t have a strong mental fortitude, she wouldn’t be like this. Although Ms. Lori and the others also saw Miss Sabrina, they greeted her and then did not do anything else.

Heath had originally planned to continue watching the play, but then more guests came in, so he had to temporarily put aside his idea of ​​watching the play and continue to entertain the guests in front of him.

"Ah, it's Professor Sakuragi. What brings you here?" Heath was somewhat surprised. Had Professor Sakuragi been coming to his place too often lately? Heath even felt that Professor Sakuragi was almost treating his place as his regular dining spot. However, this time Professor Sakuragi came alone, without bringing Go and his child.

"I was busy with research at noon, and when I remembered to eat, I just thought of you." Professor Sakuragi laughed heartily. He was a very talkative person, but he had some dark circles under his eyes. I wondered if Professor Sakuragi had been staying up late again recently. However, Pokémon professors often stayed up all night to do research, so it was quite normal for Professor Sakuragi to stay up late.

"Would Professor Sakuragi like something to eat?" Heath wiped his hands. He planned to try making the Kanto silverfish after he had made what Professor Sakuragi wanted to eat. He wanted to see if he could make a dish that could complete the special achievement of the city of Kureha, and maybe he could even give it to Professor Sakuragi to try.

"Ahem... Um, do you have any lamb kidneys here?" Dr. Sakuragi looked around a little embarrassedly, then quietly leaned over and asked Heath. Heath was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously nodded. Heath did indeed have lamb kidneys. Heath had his own ideas about these offal, and lamb kidneys were a well-known dish in his previous life. Generally speaking, the grilled kidneys at barbecue stalls mostly refer to lamb kidneys.

"Huh? You really do have that? Could you please make me some grilled lamb kidneys? I haven't had them in ages." Professor Sakuragi's eyes lit up, and he asked in a low voice. Heath could understand why Professor Sakuragi was so quiet. After all, if it were Heath himself, he would have spoken in a low voice too. In the world of Pokémon, people still believe in the principle of "you are what you eat," and the most obvious example is eating kidneys. So some shy men are embarrassed to order kidneys, afraid that others will suspect they have kidney deficiency.

The Pokémon world also has traditional Chinese medicine, but there are even Chinese medicines here that are specifically for Pokémon. They are more potent and cheaper, but the downside is that they are quite bitter. If you eat too much of them, it can lower the Pokémon's affinity for its trainer. Heath can understand this, since he had taken some Chinese medicine when he was a child. The taste of those Chinese medicines was indeed very unique. That's where the saying "good medicine tastes bitter" comes from.

"Okay, are you planning to make them into skewers to take away, or...?" Heath asked Dr. Sakuragi. He wasn't doubting Dr. Sakuragi's kidneys; Heath knew that some people didn't actually have kidneys and ate kidneys simply because they liked the unique texture of them. So Heath's expression was very calm, without any strange look, which made Dr. Sakuragi feel a little better.

"Um... could you please have some rice or something? I was thinking of having lunch." Dr. Sakuragi scratched his head and continued speaking in a low voice. Heath nodded to show that he understood, and then asked Dr. Sakuragi to sit down and wait, while Heath began to prepare what Dr. Sakuragi wanted to eat.

Grilling lamb kidneys is not difficult at all. After all, the way to cook lamb kidneys is just so-so. Make a few cuts to make them easier to absorb the flavor, and then apply seasonings. The simplest way is to sprinkle some cumin, barbecue powder, and chili powder, which is enough. However, before grilling, Heath rinsed the lamb kidneys with his own homemade mint lemon water. The advantage of this is that it can remove as much of the odor as possible, and the grilled lamb kidneys will taste better.

As for rice, Heath naturally prepared that too. However, Heath also prepared some vegetables. As for meat, Heath felt that lamb kidneys would be enough, and other meats were not really necessary. But vegetables were needed, so Heath stir-fried a small portion of greens and made a side of smashed cucumber, placing them around the edge of the rice. After the kidneys were grilled, Heath took them out, put them in the lunchbox, and closed the lid. That's how a lunchbox where you couldn't see the contents at all was made.

"Professor Sakuragi, your lunchbox." Heath called out with a smile. Professor Sakuragi's face turned a little red, but when he saw the lunchbox with its contents hidden, he was stunned for a moment, and then his smile became even more natural.

"Thank you, Mr. Heath." Dr. Sakuragi breathed a sigh of relief. He had just been worried about what would happen if someone saw them, since kidneys are such an easy ingredient to identify.

Fortunately, Heath had already come up with a solution for him: using an opaque lunchbox. The advantage was that it would prevent Professor Sakuragi from dying. Heath also received the money for the meal from Professor Sakuragi. As for the reward, it was a fairly standard candy. Heath found that he mostly gave all kinds of candy when entertaining guests. Fortunately, the Pokémon didn't have any problems eating these candies and wouldn't get diabetes. Otherwise, Heath would have to control their sugar intake.

Diabetes and even high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar exist in the Pokémon world. The most outrageous case involved several Pokémon with these conditions, including a Pikachu that was almost as fat as a Snorlax...

Chapter 709 Rumors

When Hiss first saw such a fat Pikachu on TV, he was stunned. At first glance, Hiss thought he saw a Snorlax, since Snorlax's weight and size were roughly the same. But later Hiss realized that it wasn't a Snorlax, but a Pikachu. However, that Pikachu was really too fat. Its trainer was someone who doted on his Pokémon, always providing it with unlimited food. In addition, the trainer didn't like battling, so Pikachu just ate and slept all day long, and eventually became like that, even endangering its life.

Finally, Nurse Joy performed a series of surgeries to save Pikachu's life, and then began to strictly supervise Pikachu's exercise and weight loss, which can be described as a real-life version of "swimming and fitness training." After losing weight, Pikachu returned to normal and its body became slightly more normal. It has not had similar problems since.

Then the league used this example to remind trainers who spoil their Pokémon too much that even if they love their Pokémon very much, they still need to control their diet. It would be best if their Pokémon also had some hobbies or interests. Battles are the best option, as they make it easier to control weight and provide a lot of exercise, so that the Pokémon won't have any weight problems.

After seeing that news, Heath felt that, in some ways, raising Pokémon is like having a child and trying to raise it to be successful. They are basically the same. Children also need to control their weight, and Pokémon are quite intelligent in some ways, smarter than ordinary pets. Psychic Pokémon can even be communicated with like humans.

Miss Sabrina left quickly, without saying goodbye to Ms. Lori and the others. However, Lori and the others didn't mind. After all, the League staff in the Kanto region were generally familiar with Sabrina's personality: proud, aloof, and taciturn—in short, an ice queen. So, her attitude wouldn't arouse any suspicion. If Miss Sabrina suddenly became warm and caring, perhaps Ms. Lori and the others would go over and inquire about her.

"Ms. Lori, speaking of which, have you heard about that rumor circulating in Fallen Leaf City lately?" While Ms. Lori came to pay the bill, Heath asked her curiously. Heath didn't intend to ask Ms. Lori about anything else or what mission she was on, because he knew she definitely wouldn't tell him. But this was something he could ask about.

"Hmm? You mean that Poké Ball ghost story?" Ms. Lori paused for a moment, then thought for a second, and smiled at Heath as she spoke. Heath nodded quickly; that was exactly what she was talking about. He was just curious whether Ms. Lori knew about it. However, strictly speaking, if Ms. Lori was involved in this matter, it would be quite troublesome, because it would prove that the matter was beyond Officer Jenny's jurisdiction, which was not a good thing.

"Yeah, a lot of customers have been affected today, and business at my restaurant has been bad." Heath shrugged. He didn't usually pay attention to ghost stories or the like. In Heath's opinion, the people in this world believed a lot about ghosts and gods, which puzzled him a bit. After all, this world had Pokémon and legendary Pokémon. Rather than believing in ghosts and gods, it was better to believe in legendary Pokémon.

However, Heath later discovered that people's belief in ghosts and gods and the creation of these ghost stories were probably just a way of "having nothing better to do, so why not find some fun for themselves"—in other words, a kind of alternative novel and story collection. Heath didn't pay much attention to it, but Heath had never really seen anything like this Poké Ball ghost story, which had escalated to this extent, so Heath himself was a bit dumbfounded.

However, it seems there is no problem. After all, Heath knew about rumors before, especially some that sounded outrageous. When more people spread them, there will always be people who believe them, even if the rumors sound ridiculous. For example, the Water Monkey incident in his previous life affected many places at its worst, causing widespread panic.

Therefore, it's not surprising that Konoha City has become like this.

Moreover, Heath never dared to overestimate the intelligence of some people. In his previous life, it was already the 21st century, but there were still people who believed that the earth was flat, that the photos taken by astronauts in outer space were fake, and that drinking disinfectant could kill viruses in the body. They were the epitome of anti-intellectualism.

“I know that, but you should ask your sister Feng about this. Officer Feng and the others are already investigating, and it seems they'll have results soon.” Ms. Lori shrugged like Heath, then looked at Heath with a playful expression. At the same time, Gengar appeared behind Ms. Lori, placing its hands on Ms. Lori's shoulders and looking at Heath with a wicked grin.

"And compared to those obviously fabricated rumors, I think it's better to suspect that there are ghost Pokémon playing pranks than to believe that Poké Balls eat people. Besides, if there really are ghosts, why not just catch a ghost Pokémon, train it properly, and then attack a ghost with full force? Heath, you haven't forgotten that ghosts are extremely effective against ghost-type Pokémon, have you?" Ms. Lori looked at Heath with a half-smile. Heath touched his nose, and realized that was true.

It's safe to say that if Kayako, Sadako, or Chu Renmei dared to come to the Pokémon world, they probably wouldn't even be able to cause trouble. They would be killed in no time by a passing ghost trainer, and might even be studied by Pokémon professors like Professor Sakuragi and Professor Oak to see how these people mastered Pokémon-like powers.

They have absolutely no dignity left.

After seeing off the cheerful Ms. Lori, Heath's food truck quieted down. The lunch rush had passed, and there weren't many customers. Heath even wondered if any customers would come in the afternoon. This rumor in Kuye City had really blown up quite a bit. He wondered when Sister Feng and the others would be able to come up with a result from their investigation. Once the investigation was complete, Heath felt that his food truck business should be able to return to normal.

"Well, since there aren't many customers right now, I'll just finish dealing with this Guandu Silver Fish first." Heath rubbed his hands together, intending to collect the mission reward today.

How high is Chapter 710?

Heath rubbed his hands together. He remembered that the last time he made Kanto whitebait, the problem he encountered was that the Kanto whitebait had a bitter taste. Heath later discovered that this bitterness was caused by the Kanto whitebait's internal organs. However, the problem was that the internal organs seemed to be a rather important part of the Kanto whitebait. Removing the internal organs would indeed prevent the Kanto whitebait from becoming bitter, but that would make the taste of the Kanto whitebait itself less satisfactory. The solution that Heath had thought of was to fry the Kanto whitebait's internal organs in oil and then use that oil to pan-fry the Kanto whitebait. The taste was much better than removing the internal organs, but it still didn't complete the reward.

This proves that the Kanto silverfish that Heath made was not the best way to prepare Kanto silverfish, so it did not receive the cheat code certification and complete this special achievement.

So Heath felt the key was actually in the handling of the internal organs. If they were removed, the flavor of the Kanto anchovies would lose its essence, and it would lose its most essential flavor. However, the problem was that if they weren't removed, the bitterness of the Kanto anchovies itself couldn't be masked. Although the method Heath had thought of was useful, it was still unsatisfactory.

This time, Heath planned to try crushing the innards of the Kanto whitebait and smearing them on the whitebait to achieve a marinating effect. However, given the small amount of innards, it was impossible to completely coat all the whitebait. Therefore, Heath also planned to add some egg liquid. After hesitating for a moment, Heath took out twenty Kanto whitebait, carefully removed their innards, crushed them, mixed in a certain amount of egg liquid, and then smeared them on the whitebait. He even coated them with breadcrumbs to prevent the innards from falling off during frying.

With Dialga's seasoning jar, Heath's marinating process was much faster, making it much easier for him. He quickly made a serving of Kanto anchovies, but after one bite, he couldn't help but spit it out. The Kanto anchovies were incredibly bitter, yet after the bitterness came a unique Kanto anchovy aroma. This left Heath somewhat amused and exasperated. It seemed that the entrails were coated on the surface, causing the first bite to be bitter. Was this Kanto anchovy even edible?

This reminded Heath of bitter melon, which is similar, except that bitter melon is inherently bitter, especially when boiled. The bitterness is so intense that just thinking about it makes one shudder. However, as bitter melons grow larger, their bitterness disappears. But people deliberately choose to eat bitter melons when they are bitter, and some older people also like to eat stir-fried bitter melon, saying that it has a unique flavor after the bitterness subsides. So there are quite a few lovers of bitter melon.

The problem is that bitter melon and Guandu anchovies are different. People like to eat bitter melon because they believe that its components are beneficial to the body. But what about Guandu anchovies? It's impossible for Heath to go to an testing agency to analyze them just to make a dish and see if the bitterness has any health benefits, right? That would be too absurd.

However, this is one possible solution. Heath thought that perhaps when he encountered some very unique ingredients in the future, he could try to exploit this method to see if he could find a loophole in the cheat code and complete this special achievement task in an alternative way. However, Heath felt that the possibility was not very high. After all, if it were really that simple, it wouldn't be so troublesome.

"Wait, identification?" Heath paused for a moment, then took out his magnifying glass and shone it on the silverfish. Heath wanted to see what he would see with the food identification device; it was hard to say what useful information he might find.

[Kanto silverfish, non-toxic and edible, is a very rare marine fish. Because of its extremely small size, it is difficult to catch. It often attaches itself to larger marine creatures or Pokémon to achieve a delicate symbiotic relationship. Its internal organs have an indescribable bitter taste, so it requires a high level of experience from the chef.]

Heath's lips twitched. Good grief, he'd read a whole paragraph, but it was practically useless. Heath knew the fish's innards had a bitter taste, but what he wanted to know was how to remove that bitterness, not for his system to come and remind him that the bitterness was in the innards and required a high level of experience from the chef. Of course, Heath knew it required a high level of experience.

Heath felt fortunate that his cheat ability couldn't speak, otherwise, when he asked the other party how tall it was, the other party might have replied that it was several stories high.

"Hmm? Maybe I can ask the market vendor. There must be someone there who has processed a lot of Kanto anchovies." Heath thought of the information he had gathered at the market in Kureha City, which included information about Kanto anchovies. Perhaps the market vendor knew how to process them. Thinking of this, Heath became much calmer. He decided to rest a little earlier today. Anyway, Kureha City was in a state of panic because of that strange urban legend, so resting early wouldn't hurt.

As Hiss had expected, there were indeed very few customers today. It was clear that this strange rumor about Kurenai City had affected many people. Hiss was somewhat amused and exasperated, but at least he could close up shop earlier. As for tomorrow, the problem should be solved. Sister Feng was very capable, and with such a significant impact, the Alliance wouldn't stand idly by. Hiss thought he might see related news tonight.

"Zoroark, close the door." Heath stretched, knowing no guests would be coming in anyway.

"Okay." Zoroark nodded and walked over. Just as he was about to close the door, Zoroark noticed something crouching by the door. Zoroark glanced at it subconsciously and saw a Poké Ball sitting quietly on the ground, which seemed to have suddenly moved.

"Hey? Trainer, there's a Poké Ball at our door." Zoroark quickly sent a telepathic message to Seath. Seath was stunned for a moment after hearing it, then hurried over to take a look. He then saw a Poké Ball lying quietly on the ground in front of his food cart. However, as Seath arrived, the Poké Ball moved slightly.

Chapter 711 The Fisherman

Hiss stared in surprise at the Poké Ball before him. He had just read the legend about the Poké Ball, and he hadn't expected to see it here so soon. At first, Hiss wondered if it was a prank or if someone had simply brought a Galar Mudskipper over. However, after careful observation, Hiss realized that this was not a Galar Mudskipper. Although Galar Mudskippers have a Poké Ball-shaped trap, it is still easily recognizable upon closer inspection, especially since this was a prime location in Vermilion City.

Moreover, the teeth in the center of the Mudfish Galar form Poké Ball are like steel, so it's actually quite easy to distinguish. However, Heath didn't see anything unusual on this Poké Ball.

However, immediately afterward, Heath noticed that the Poké Ball moved, and then a hand reached out from inside. It was indeed a hand; Heath could see it clearly. It was a pair of pale white hands, which looked like human hands. Heath even noticed that there was blood flowing from these hands, with red blood slowly dripping down from the pale hands, which looked rather frightening.

Hiss was stunned. He had just been wondering if a hand would stick out of the Poké Ball, and had even imagined the details of the hand. He didn't expect that the hand would actually stick out the next second. Hiss wasn't scared. He even walked over and picked up the Poké Ball to take a look. It was indeed a Poké Ball. It was very light, as if it didn't contain anything. And as Hiss picked up the Poké Ball, the hands paused for a moment.

"A Ghost Pokémon? Gengar?" Hiss pulled out his food identifier. Although he didn't know what it was, he figured it must be a Ghost Pokémon because it could transform into whatever he feared.

[Dreamlike Pokémon are non-toxic and inedible. Ghost Pokémon don't have a fixed body. Can you fry air?]

The two uses a day were used up just like that, but Hiss didn't care. He was just a little surprised that the Pokémon in the Poké Ball was Misdreavus. After all, Hiss had thought of Gengar or Haunter, since these Pokémon all had a penchant for playing pranks. But thinking about it carefully, Misdreavus also had a penchant for playing pranks, so it didn't seem strange that it turned out like this.

"Eek..." Accompanied by a struggling sound, the Poké Ball in Hiss's hand trembled, but it did not break free from Hiss's grasp. The Misdreavus seemed to realize that it could not break free, so it simply popped out of the Poké Ball and made a quick getaway. It was so fast that Hiss hadn't even had time to react before the creature had disappeared. Hiss couldn't help but shake his head.

Misdreavus is a Ghost Pokémon, and most Ghost Pokémon enjoy playing pranks. These little guys will use pranks to get things they like from living people. Professor Oak once researched that they seem to obtain a kind of soul energy, which allows them to become stronger and also eat their fill. So most Ghost Pokémon are a bunch of mischievous little rascals, but they don't intentionally hurt people. After scaring people, they will leave laughing and letting people know that it was a Ghost Pokémon who was behind the mischief.

However, some dangerous ghost Pokémon have appeared in the history of the League. Some ghost Pokémon have even killed many people. There was a rumor that there was a mansion in the forest of the Hoenn region, which was originally thought to be the Hoenn region by Heath. A very large Gengar lived in that mansion. It is said that the Gengar killed the owner of the mansion. However, these are all legends. Heath has never been to that place.

"I thought it was that weird ghost story coming my way again. What a disappointment." Heath shook his head, looking at the damaged Poké Ball in his hand, and threw it into the trash can. Then, Heath drove his food truck to the Vermilion City market. Heath planned to see if the old man who had told him about Kanto Silverfish in Vermilion City was still there. If he was, Heath could ask the old man about how to cook Kanto Silverfish, which would be quite convenient.

Soon, Heath found the old man, and under Heath's questioning, the old man gave him some information.

“How would I know how to make small silver fish? That stuff is in our Kuye Village, ah, back then it wasn’t a city, just a small fishing village. Only old Vanjo knew how to make it. Now that old guy runs his own fishing tackle shop. You can find him at this location.” The old man spoke to Heath very enthusiastically. Heath nodded knowingly. It seemed that even though he had been a fisherman, this old man didn’t know how to make Guandu silver fish. But that was normal. Fortunately, this man had given him some information so that Heath could find the corresponding location.

Heath hurriedly drove over, but when he arrived at the location indicated on the paper, he found that the fishing tackle shop was already closed. Heath looked around but couldn't find any personal information left behind, so he had no choice but to leave. He thought he might have to come back at 1 p.m. the next day, but when he checked the time, it was only 5:30 p.m. Normally, a fishing tackle shop wouldn't close that early.

"Could he be a fisherman?" Heath pondered. He thought it was very likely. After all, he was the owner of the fishing tackle shop and used to be a fisherman in Kuye Village. So, the possibility of him being a fisherman was quite high. As everyone knows, it is very difficult to find a fisherman. You have to spend a lot of time running around, and you may not be able to find him even if you search Kuye City. This is because fishermen always like to find some fishing hotspots that they consider to be fishing paradises.

"Probably not? After all, they still have to open their shop..." Heath sighed. It seemed that he would have to make a wasted trip today. Thinking of this, Heath opened his phone again to check the messages, but he still didn't see any valuable information about Kuye City. This made Heath a little strange. Hadn't Sister Feng and the others investigated this matter yet?

Although there are ghosts in the Pokémon world, including human ghosts, Heath knows that most ghosts don't actually have any special abilities, and many people can't even see them. Evil spirits like Kayako don't even exist.

Chapter 712 The Sequel to the Ghost Story
