I opened a restaurant in the Pokémon world.

Heath left openly, using the same excuse as always: to exercise. Meanwhile, Officer Jenny was still sulking in her room and didn't notice Heath's departure.

Heath knew that Adams lived in the villa district of Evergreen City, after all, Heath had thoroughly studied the Evergreen City map in order to find the best place in Evergreen City to set up a stall.

The villa area is located near the Officer Jenny's dormitory area. The real estate developer advertised it as providing "comprehensive security," since being close to Officer Jenny's dormitory meant that if anything happened, the Officer Jennys could come immediately.

However, Heath was not in a hurry. He led Zoroya into the Evergreen City gym openly, greeted Coach Hawley with a smile, changed his clothes in the locker room, and then stepped onto the treadmill to begin his workout.

……

"Are you sure your illusion will work?" Heath asked, peering out from the Adams villa at the private security guards patrolling ahead.

"Of course it works! Unless someone insists on hugging you, no one can see through my illusion!" Soroya snorted proudly, and Heath finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Soraya's illusion magic is incredibly powerful, to the point that even Heath was somewhat surprised. However, Soraya also mentioned that the illusion magic in the gym can only last for an hour and a half at most, so Heath needs to hurry.

Soon, Heath and Zoroah were enveloped in illusions, and Heath, in the form of Little Rada, slipped into Adams' house. Heath quickly found the door that had not been closed in the garden.

"Wow, this place is so luxurious." Soroya looked around in surprise. Everything here made her feel that Heath's place was like a slum.

"Or do you think getting on the rich list is easy? Quick, smell it, does it smell of blood?" Heath rolled his eyes. Getting on the rich list in Evergreen City isn't that easy.

"Hmph, I know, really, why are you rushing me?" Zoroya snorted, then twitched his nose and led Heath to the door of a closed room.

The door wasn't locked, and Heath slipped inside easily, where he saw the little dragon.

However, compared to the little dragon I saw this morning, the little dragon now looks much worse. It is covered in wounds, and its skin is bright red, as if it has been scalded by boiling water.

Heath frowned. Adams' son had clearly not treated his injuries properly; it was downright abuse.

Just as Heath was about to rescue the little dragon, the door was pushed open, and a boy with a gloomy face walked in.

Heath quieted down and silently turned on the video recording function on her phone.

Chapter 55 The Cruel Adams!

Heath watched the scene unfold quietly. If he could capture evidence of the Adams family's crimes, then even if Adams was a wealthy man in Evergreen City, he wouldn't be able to escape unscathed.

To prevent Sororia from getting too agitated or angry and ruining things, Heath specifically reminded Sororia to keep quiet and not speak, so as to avoid being discovered.

Adams' son walked in. Heath didn't remember the man's name. After all, the Adams family seemed to be quite mysterious. Most of the time, only Adams would come out, and his son rarely appeared in the public eye.

However, what made Heath frown was that Adams was holding a leather whip in his hand, the kind used for punishment. Just by looking at the fine lines on the whip, Heath could imagine what kind of torture the little dragon would suffer.

"How cruel! How could they treat a little dragon like that!" Zoroia said through gritted teeth, perched on Heath's head. Heath couldn't help but reach out and comfort her.

If he doesn't appease them, Heath suspects that Zorroia will pluck out a lot of his hair, at which point Heath will probably become stronger and be able to take down Arceus with a single punch.

"Little Fire Dragon, you're really good at dodging! You managed to hide for so long!" Little Adams grinned wickedly, his whip slamming into the ground with a sharp crack.

"..." The little dragon lowered its head, ignoring the little Adams standing in front of it, and showed no reaction.

Heath sighed. In order to record evidence of the crime, Heath could only watch as the little dragon was tortured. Heath decided to intervene and rescue the little dragon when the torture was almost over.

"Little Fire Dragon!" Little Adams suddenly raised the whip in his hand, and Heath closed his eyes in pain.

"Please torture me~" Just when Heath thought he would hear the little dragon's screams, he opened his eyes in confusion.

Little Adams eagerly placed the whip in front of the little dragon, then excitedly turned his back to the dragon, lifted his clothes, and revealed his back.

"?" Heath slowly typed out a question mark. When he typed the question mark, it didn't mean that Heath thought there was something wrong with him, but rather that he thought there was something wrong with others.

Meanwhile, the Charmander on the other side stared blankly at its trainer. It had imagined how powerful its trainer could be, even if the trainer was a bit weak. Charmander was sure it could protect its trainer.

but……

But looking at the little Adams in front of him, who kept asking him to inflict pain, Charmander closed his eyes in grief and indignation. What kind of trainers are these!

"Little dragon~ whip me quickly~ you can use your claws if you want~" Looking at Little Adams who kept begging the little dragon to whip him, Heath really couldn't control his emotions.

"Holy crap..." Although Heath quickly reacted and covered his mouth after getting away, Adams still heard it.

"Who?" Little Adams immediately straightened his face and looked around warily, but the surroundings were very quiet and there was nothing unusual.

After checking around, Little Adams didn't pay much attention, thinking he might have misheard, and then ran back to the little dragon.

Looking at the indignant Charmander, Heath shook his head. No wonder Charmander wanted to run away; it turned out it was because it had been tortured by this freakish trainer.

"I take back what I said earlier, please increase the intensity!" Soroya looked at Little Adams excitedly, wishing she could rush up and whip the guy a few times.

Hiss gave his Pokémon a strange look. He figured he'd have to keep Zoroark away from whips and such in the future, otherwise who knew what Zoroark might do?

After realizing that things weren't quite as he had imagined, Heath sighed, put his phone away, and gave up the idea of ​​continuing to record in that place.

Heath originally thought he was recording evidence of Adams' crimes, but he never expected that he would end up recording a sex scandal involving Adams' family.

Rescuing abused Pokémon is Hiss's duty, but correcting other people's unique XP is not Hiss's job.

Heath could only silently wish Charmander happiness with its trainer before leaving Mr. Adams' house with Zoroah.

"I'm finding it quite fun following you, Trainer. Look, we've even met such a unique person today," Zoroya said excitedly on Hiss's head.

"Whatever happens, as long as it's not torturing the little dragon... As for Adams' hobby... let his father worry about it." Heath shook his head. If old Adams knew that his son's hobby was so unique, who knows what he would do.

In that case, Heath thinks that Daigo is probably the kind of person who makes his father's life easier, since Daigo's hobby is just digging for rocks all over the world.

Heath strolled slowly toward the gym. He needed to get Zorya to cancel the illusion before returning to his dorm to rest.

Just thinking about Sister Feng's fury gave Heath a headache. He didn't know how to explain to Sister Feng that Little Adams wasn't actually torturing the little dragon.

But Heath knew he couldn't tell Sister Feng that he had gone to Little Adams' house to spy on him; otherwise, Sister Feng would turn against him out of loyalty.

"Never mind, if Sister Feng wants to know, she'll find out in the future anyway." Heath shook her head and then left the villa area.

……

When Heath returned to the dormitory, everything seemed normal. Jun Shafeng was still holed up in her room, not coming out, and no one knew what she was doing.

Heath didn't care, after all, he already knew the whole story about Charmander: a trainer with unique hobbies and a Pokémon that didn't like those hobbies.

Jun Shafeng's current worries will likely turn into surprise and disbelief once she understands the whole story.

"Oh right, I still need to go to the furniture store tomorrow to buy some tables and chairs..." Heath scratched his head. Now that they had the mobile dining cart, it would be quite troublesome without tables and chairs.

After all, you can't expect customers to stand while they eat; that's not good for them and it also affects Heath's business.

"I want to take a bath, Trainer~" Just as Hiss was wondering whether to flip through the flyer, he heard a soft and cute loli voice.

Chapter 56 The Reason for the Nightmare

Heath turned his head blankly and saw a little girl with animal ears staring at him expectantly, her hand clutching his sleeve.

Farfetch'd was hugging a green onion and chuckling to himself. Heath could see Farfetch'd's shoulders shaking with laughter, a discovery that left Heath speechless.

“The bathroom is over there, Zoroya.” Heath looked helplessly at the little girl in front of him. He didn’t need to look to know who this girl was. After all, who else but Zoroya could do this?

"I want you to wash me." Soroya stubbornly clung to Heath's clothes, refusing to let go, leaving Heath with no choice but to agree.

However, to avoid any trouble, Hiss restored Zoroah to his normal form before carrying him into the bathroom to give him a bath.

"Trainer, are you sure you don't want me to turn into that form for you?" Zoroya lay comfortably on the edge of the water basin, the warm water making him feel like he was melting.

"It's best not to, thank you." Heath refused expressionlessly, then casually rubbed the shower gel onto Zoroa's head.

I have to say, giving Zoroa a bath is quite fun. Zoroa is just like a cat, fluffy and easy to touch, and the blue fur on its head looks very beautiful.

"I can do that~" Zoroa instantly transformed back into the little girl she was just now, except this little girl...

Heath rolled his eyes. Good grief, what has this guy learned?!

Although the little girl wasn't exposed, seeing his hand pass through her face made the scene, which was originally somewhat beautiful, suddenly become eerie.

After being persuaded by Heath, Zorua finally gave up on continuing to take human form and obediently stayed in the basin of water.

Heath also dragged Farfetch'd in. Although Farfetch'd was very unwilling, under Heath's threatening gaze, it obediently crawled into the bathroom and accepted Heath's torment.

"Zoroa, does your clan have any traditions?" Heath asked curiously as she applied bath gel to the Farfetch'd.

“Yes, but I only heard it from Zoroark. She said we came from another continent, a continent with a very, very tall mountain. Legend has it that the God of Creation created that region, and our race was born there,” Zoroark said while taking a bath.

Hiss paused for a moment. Could this be referring to the Sinnoh region? Hiss remembered seeing the latest work before he transmigrated, which mentioned the predecessor of the Sinnoh region, the Green Region. The Zorua there was different, and its attributes were also somewhat different.

"And then?" Heath asked curiously. It was a pity that he had transmigrated before he could play, otherwise he might have been able to learn more information.

"And so we've lived until now, but the number of our people is dwindling." Zoroya huffed and puffed as he picked up a spoon and added a spoonful of hot water to his own bowl.

Heath looked at Zoroark, who was particularly enthusiastic about taking hot baths, and then at Farfetch'd, who was very resistant to hot water, and shook his head. These Pokémon really do have very different hobbies.

After giving his Pokémon a bath, Heath crawled into bed and slowly drifted off to sleep.

However, Heath did not sleep well that night. Perhaps the impact of Little Adams was too great for him. In his dreams, there was always a Little Adams posing and making faces in front of him, wanting him to whip him.

Heath tried desperately to wake up, but to no avail. Then, Sadako, who had a face resembling Little Adams, crawled out of the television and made him whip her. Kayako, who also had a face resembling Little Adams, stood in front of his bed and made him whip her as well.

"This nightmare was absolutely awful." The next morning, Heath painfully crawled out of bed, realizing for the first time how miserable his dreams could be.

Then Heath suddenly noticed a text box in front of him.

You entertained Darkrai, and you received the Nightmare Crystal.

With a strange expression, Heath took out a small black crystal from his pocket. It wasn't very big.

[Nightmare Elixir: Placed under your pillow, it can cause nightmares that you can't wake up from.]

"Good heavens, good heavens! I was wondering why I was having nightmares. Turns out Darkrai was passing by last night?" Heath looked at the crystal in his hand with a strange expression.

Heath really hadn't expected to encounter a legendary Pokémon. Although Darkrai, the Nightmare God, didn't seem to be the only one, it was at least among the legendary Pokémon.

"What a pity, it would have been better if it were a Dark Hole Learning Machine." Heath clicked his tongue. Although having nightmares was a bit unpleasant, the crystal in his hand was still quite fun.

A nightmare that cannot be woken up means that the person having the nightmare cannot wake up and can only wake up naturally.

Heath put the powerful crystal away. It might be useful in the future, or it might just be like the brain-enlarging drug, forever sealed away.

Heath stretched and then woke up the sleeping Zoroa and Farfetch'd. They then washed up together and prepared for the day's business.

"Onion~" After washing up, Farfetch'd stood in front of Heath, flapping its wings as if it were saying something.

"Congcong said he wanted to eat something else for breakfast; he had a nightmare yesterday and wasn't feeling well," Zoroya translated, yawning.

Heath's lips twitched. It seemed that he wasn't the only one dragged into the nightmare by Darkrai, which annoyed Heath. However, this was the only nightmare Heath had experienced in the past four years, and catching Darkrai wouldn't be so easy.

Heath shook his head, then thought for a moment. He also felt very hungry, probably because of the nightmare.

"A filling breakfast... so it must be noodles, right? There are noodles in this world, so what should I make?" Heath looked at his food cart and fell into deep thought. After hesitating for a moment, Heath thought of the breakfast he would make this time.
