I opened a restaurant in the Pokémon world.

Chapter 1024 The Mask of Weeping Joy

"You sure know how to surprise me, kid? How did you know about this place?" Just as Heath was about to go in and take a look, he heard a familiar voice, which made Heath shudder and almost drop his phone. After all, hearing someone talking in this dark cave was really terrifying, especially since the voice came suddenly from behind him, making it even more unbearable. Heath subconsciously turned around and saw a huge black shadow. However, after seeing the shadow, Heath actually breathed a sigh of relief.

"Giratina? What are you doing here?" It was Giratina who spoke. Heath was a little confused. He hadn't sensed Giratina's arrival when he was outside, so when did Giratina get here? Heath had no idea. But now that he knew it was Giratina speaking behind him, he breathed a sigh of relief. At least it wasn't some strange thing behind him. However, Heath was still a little curious as to why Giratina would appear in this place.

Although this is the Reverse World, Giratina's territory, Giratina is the master of the entire Reverse World, which means that it can go wherever it wants in this world. So theoretically, Giratina shouldn't come to stay on a small island on purpose. However, considering that he entered using the Reverse World Badge, Seath calmed down. He guessed that Giratina sensed some energy fluctuation and came to find him.

“This is my territory, why wouldn’t I be here? But speaking of which… oh, I see.” Giratina glanced at Seath, somewhat puzzled as to why Seath knew about this place, since it was his secret base. However, upon seeing the treasure map in Seath’s hand, Giratina understood. It was that damned guy again. But considering Seath’s immense power, Giratina couldn’t say anything. Moreover, after looking at Seath, Giratina felt that giving that thing to Seath probably wouldn’t be letting the treasure go to waste.

Giratina's expression turned sour at the thought of his prized possessions being given away.

Heath was somewhat bewildered. He didn't know what Giratina was thinking. He was just trying to figure out how to find the treasure. According to the treasure map, the treasure was in this cave, but Heath wasn't sure exactly where. He decided to dig around and see what happened, thinking it was very likely underground.

“Don’t even think about digging it yourself. I’ll get it for you. These things here… let me see. This is the one I can give you.” Giratina waved his hand, and a mask floated out of the ground and landed in Heath’s hand. Giratina’s face showed a pained expression. He really didn’t want to part with his collection, but there was nothing he could do. Heath had the treasure map, and if he didn’t give it to him, it would probably all be dug up. He might as well give one item to settle things.

"...This treasure map..." Heath finally understood. He looked at Giratina with a strange expression. To be honest, Heath really didn't expect that the treasure map in his hand would be like this. It was truly unexpected. Heath originally thought that this treasure map contained some unique treasure or secret, but he didn't expect that this treasure map pointed to the place where Giratina hid his things. No wonder Giratina came here. If it hadn't come, it probably would have taken everything with it.

Heath was somewhat amused and exasperated. This treasure map was indeed real, but now Heath was increasingly certain of his previous idea.

【The Mask of Weeping Joy: Wearing this mask allows you to infuse your emotions into your dishes, creating even more amazing cuisine. However, because this mask is extremely expensive, it can only be used once a day, and only one dish can be made at a time.】

Heath also saw the information about the mask in his hand, which left him somewhat bewildered. He really hadn't expected to be able to obtain something like this. Moreover, this thing did indeed greatly enhance his cooking skills. It could even be said that Heath had stopped being human at this moment, at least he was going further and further down the path of becoming a non-human chef.

What does it mean to infuse emotions into dishes? Heath was curious, but he also knew that this wasn't an effect that traditional cuisine could achieve. After all, Heath himself was a chef, and he knew all too well what cooking was like. It was a very ordinary type of cooking, ordinary seasoning, and the taste was, at best, just average, completely within people's comprehension. But this mask was different. Using this mask, Heath possessed unique abilities. It could be said that if Heath was a chef in an urban drama before, he had now begun to embark on the path of a fantasy chef.

“This is a bit strange…” Heath scratched his head, puzzled. Was this thing good? Of course it was, but Heath couldn’t figure out what it was for, which left him somewhat bewildered.

"You don't really think the food made for the gods would be so ordinary, do you?" Giratina gave Heath a deep look, and before Heath could react, she kicked him out of the Inverted World and back to her food cart. If Heath hadn't been holding the mask in her hand, she would have thought she was hallucinating.

However, Heath immediately remembered what Giratina had said earlier. He looked at the strange mask in his hand, scratched his head, and combined it with the special mission he had triggered earlier, the offering of divine food to the gods, Heath roughly knew what was going on.

"Indeed, I still have a long way to go before I can create food to welcome the gods." Heath shook his head. He roughly understood what Giratina meant and the significance of the item given to him by the treasure map. However, Heath was increasingly curious about the item's purpose. Could infusing emotions into the dishes make them taste better? Wouldn't that just turn them into seasonings?

"It seems I really can make the taste of happiness and the taste of sadness in the future." Heath rubbed his hands together. As long as it can improve his cooking skills, Heath doesn't mind. On the contrary, he is looking forward to whether there will be other tools in the future.

Chapter 1025 Pokémon Beyond Dreams

Heath was cooking, making a vegetable salad as usual. This time, however, he wore the mask he had received from Giratina. He wanted to try incorporating emotions into the mask and see what kind of food he could create. Since the vegetable salad was an appetizer, he could also use the system's rating to determine how the added emotions would affect the food. Heath was quite looking forward to it. However, after putting on the mask, Heath didn't feel anything unusual while cooking. He cooked as diligently as usual. After finishing the vegetable salad, Heath suddenly felt a bit tired.

Just like after tossing the wok for over an hour, the intense fatigue made Heath involuntarily stop. He felt a little better after taking off the mask, and Heath roughly understood why the mask could only be used once a day. However, Heath was more concerned about what the prop was actually used for. He wanted to see if adding emotion to the vegetable salad would make a difference.

You made a simple vegetable salad.

At this moment, the system's evaluation came out. Heath was stunned for a moment. To be honest, he was a little disappointed. After all, Heath had thought that adding emotions would make him make good food, but he did not expect that it would still be ordinary food. This would not meet the requirements of the divine meal offered to the gods. This made Heath a little confused. Could it be that the addition of emotions cannot be used as a seasoning?

Thinking of this, Heath picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of the vegetable salad, and chewed it. It still tasted like vegetables and salad dressing, but as she ate, Heath found that her previous agitation seemed to have eased a bit, and she began to want to eat the dish seriously. Heath was stunned for a moment. Could this be the power of added emotions? Was it because she had been serious about cooking that she had this feeling of wanting to eat seriously?

Heath wasn't quite sure, so he simply took the vegetable salad out and let May and Farfetch'd try it. The result was the same; May and Farfetch'd both had a feeling of wanting to eat seriously, but this feeling was very faint, as if it flashed through their minds. Hearing this, Heath had some new insights into cooking based on these emotions.

Heath had initially thought that cooking with emotions would make people taste some indescribable flavors while eating, but she didn't expect it to evoke similar emotions in the diners. This was quite peculiar and served as a supplementary function. Heath decided to try adding happy and joyful emotions next time to see if it could make the guests enjoy their meal even more.

After studying his new item, Heath felt much more relaxed. He happily went to enjoy his vacation on the deserted island with his Pokémon and his disciple. When it was late at night and everyone was tired, Heath activated the Anywhere Door. With the light from the Anywhere Door, Heath watched as the forest outside the window turned into a highway, and the outline of a city appeared in the distance. Although it was already 10:30 p.m., Fuchsia City was still brightly lit.

"Tsk tsk, coming from a deserted island to a bustling city all of a sudden, I'm really not used to it." Heath clicked his tongue, but he wasn't in a hurry to go to Fuchsia City. It was still late at night, and Officer Jenny had all gone off duty. Although the Officer Jenny on duty was still there, the Officer Jenny in the Civil Affairs Department was definitely already resting. So Heath decided to sleep outside for the night. Besides, Fuchsia City was quite a famous place.

Besides the Poison-type Gym Leader, the most impressive thing about Fuchsia City is its Safari Zone, which houses some Pokémon rarely seen elsewhere. The gameplay there is also very famous, with people often saving up money to go in and try to catch a rare Pokémon. Some people even act as guides. Sheath even saw a training school in the Fuchsia City Safari Zone, which supposedly allows students to quickly understand and master the gameplay and Pokémon distribution of the Safari Zone.

Fuchsia City is arguably the most unique city in the Kanto region, and it also has the most trainers, mainly due to the existence of the Safari Zone.

Heath yawned, then drove the food cart aside and went back to sleep.

……

"Dr. Fuji, your research direction aligns with our current main focus, but we didn't expect you to have gone into such depth." Looking at the Pokémon lying in the culture tank, the base manager beside him revealed an excited expression. Sure enough, it was a very normal decision for the organization to involve Dr. Fuji in their work. Dr. Fuji truly deserves his reputation as a professional doctor in Pokémon genetics. Look at this Pokémon, how beautiful it is.

Although it is still in its early stages, the energy it unconsciously emanates has already proven that this Pokémon is extraordinary. It may be a pure Psychic Pokémon, and it may even be a very powerful Pokémon. After all, the energy it is emanating now is already so amazing, it is hard to imagine how terrifying the energy will be later.

"Hmm." Dr. Fuji nodded heavily, unsure whether what he was doing was right or wrong. But when he thought about his hard work and looked at the Team Rocket members around him, he knew he couldn't leave for the time being. So he simply stayed and worked diligently, at least to bring his work to fruition. The thought of stepping into the realm of the gods made Dr. Fuji tremble with excitement.

Although this is a forbidden zone, and the league has repeatedly warned against touching this area, and this geneticist has been warned countless times, he still couldn't resist stepping into this field. He wanted to see how God created life, and now he has succeeded.

"Since you are born from Mew's genes, you can definitely surpass Mew. In that case, your name will be Mewtwo in the future." Dr. Fuji looked at the Pokémon that was still in its embryonic stage, his eyes filled with deep emotions. This was the culmination of his life's work. Even though he had to cooperate with a dark organization like Team Rocket, Dr. Fuji still wanted Mewtwo to appear in this world and enjoy the life that a Pokémon should have.

Chapter 1026 Hunting Area Operation Permit

Heath drove his food truck to the entrance of Officer Jenny's Tower in Fuchsia City. The Officer Jenny's Tower here looked similar to the one in Goldenrod City, which made Heath ponder. Generally speaking, the size of an Officer Jenny's Tower in a city depends on the number of Officer Jennys. If there are many Officer Jennys, then the Officer Jenny's Tower will naturally be large, and if there are not many Officer Jennys, then it will be small. For example, the Officer Jenny's Tower in Cinnabar Town is very small, and the same is true for Pallet Town and Lavender Town. However, it was somewhat surprising that the Officer Jenny's Tower here was about the same size as the one in Goldenrod City. But considering that this was Fuchsia City, Heath became calm.

After all, Fuchsia City is most famous for its Safari Zone, which attracts many Pokémon Trainers. With more people, the possibility of trouble increases, so it's not surprising that there are many Officer Jennys in this area. Moreover, Heath had previously investigated and found that Fuchsia City has had quite a few incidents, such as theft and lost Pokémon. Therefore, there are many Officer Jennys in Fuchsia City.

Thinking about this, Heath couldn't help but admire Ajuga, the Gym Leader of Fuchsia City. If Sabrina was a member of Team Rocket, then Ajuga, the Gym Leader of Fuchsia City, might also be a member of Team Rocket. To be able to work for Team Rocket under the noses of so many Officer Jennys, it has to be said that Ajuga is truly a talent. Ordinary people really couldn't do something like that.

"Wakana, let's go. You'll need to familiarize yourself with how to handle your affairs at Officer Jenny's Building from now on." Hiss led May downstairs. Officer Jenny's Building is arguably the place every League citizen visits most frequently. Trainer cards need to be processed here, canceled here, and replaced here. Basically, all League affairs can be handled at Officer Jenny's Building, unless it involves matters like Gym Leaders, Elite Four, or Champions, which are handled by the League headquarters. Most of the daily affairs are handled by Officer Jenny.

"Okay, Master." Xiaoyao obediently followed Heath downstairs. However, as soon as Heath arrived at the entrance of the Officer Jenny Building, he saw a notice board at the entrance. But it wasn't a policy notice or anything; it was an advertisement. This surprised Heath. How could they put up an advertisement at the entrance of the Officer Jenny Building? That was quite remarkable.

A renowned Guanju opera troupe from the Kanto region will be performing in Asahi City for three days starting today. Everyone is welcome to come and watch!

The words were very simple, but Heath was somewhat surprised. It turned out that the opera troupe from Guanxi had arrived, which was quite unusual.

This world has some similarities to his previous life, and Guan Opera is one of the things that left a deep impression on Heath. After all, Guan Opera is the same as Peking Opera in his previous life. Heath was a little curious at first, but once they went on stage and started singing, he knew exactly what Guan Opera was. Moreover, Guan Opera is quite famous in the entire Kanto region and is an intangible cultural heritage of the Kanto Alliance. However, like Peking Opera in his previous life, Guan Opera is a type of opera with relatively few viewers. Most of the viewers are older people, while young people who are not old are rarely interested in Guan Opera.

However, after taking a quick look, Heath took Xiaoyao inside. If Heath were traveling, he might actually be interested in Guan Opera. But Heath was there to set up a stall and do business, so naturally he wasn't very interested in Guan Opera. Besides, he had seen it before, and although Guan Opera in this world was similar to Peking Opera, the programs were completely different. It could be said that apart from the singing style being similar to Peking Opera, everything else was different, so Heath naturally wasn't interested.

"Master, what is Guanju?" Heath couldn't help but rub his face after hearing this. It was his mistake to forget that there was a curious child next to him. So Heath explained it to Xiaoyao and then completed the process of obtaining his stall permit in Fuchsia City.

However, the street vending permits in Fuchsia City are different from those in other cities. The area for street vending in Fuchsia City is not very large, and street vending is not allowed within a certain range near the hunting area. Heath had no objection to this. Although he knew that the hunting area was definitely the place with the best business in Fuchsia City, since the Alliance did not allow street vending there, he could not break the law.

“Little Heath, if you want to set up a stall in the hunting area, you’d better go to the Alliance’s office and apply for a hunting area operating permit.” Officer Jenny, who was handling the permits, knew Heath, or rather, almost all of Officer Jenny knew Heath, because Heath was the first person outside of the group to receive the Officer Jenny surname, so everyone was very interested in this young man.

"Okay, thank you, Sister Dangdang." Heath replied with a smile. Heath took these Officer Jennys very seriously, since they were all older than him. Heath had never met any younger Officer Jennys and didn't know if they were still training in their families.

After receiving his certificate, Heath left. He wasn't interested in applying for a hunting area operating permit. Although doing business within a hunting area would certainly be very profitable, Heath felt it was fine not to. On the other hand, Heath had also researched hunting area operating permits and found that the application fee was quite high. In other words, if he wanted to break even, the selling price would naturally need to be increased, which made Heath think of tourist attractions.

Heath once traveled to a city in China. There was a park inside the city's second ring road, a fairly famous one. However, the shops less than 50 meters from the park sold water at normal prices, while the park shops less than 50 meters from the park entrance charged five yuan for a bottle of Coke.

The reason they're so expensive is because you have to pay a fee to open a shop in the park. If you sell the same things as outside, you won't make much money. So, the same principle applies to parks and scenic spots: things are cheaper outside and more expensive inside. The hunting area is similar. Heath even saw someone complaining online that a bowl of beef rice in the hunting area cost 35 yuan, and there wasn't much beef at all.

But when Heath saw the amount required for a hunting area operating permit, he felt that the figure was actually quite reasonable.

“Let’s go, let’s take a detour.” Heath yawned, intending to drive around the area.

Chapter 1027 Philosophical Questions about Life

Upon entering Fuchsia City, Heath noticed its differences from other Pokémon League cities. First, Fuchsia City was crowded. While a large population isn't unusual—Saffron City has even more—what was unusual was that most of the people here were Pokémon Trainers with Poké Balls. If the idea that "eye contact between Trainers signals a battle" were true, Fuchsia City would probably be in chaos by now. Of course, Pokémon battles are generally not allowed in cities, as they can cause damage to buildings and other problems. Unauthorized battles would also violate the Pokémon League Trainer Battle Regulations, resulting in Officer Jenny politely inviting you for tea and a meal.

Therefore, Pokémon trainers in the world don't actually have so much free time that they start battling as soon as their eyes meet; that would be too silly.

Although Heath knew that everyone in the Pokémon world was a trainer, it had to be said that there were just too many trainers in Fuchsia City, and many of them wore a badge box. This meant that these young trainers were there to collect gym badges and strive for the Kanto League, not just people who were just playing around.

"So many trainers," May exclaimed, while Hiss seemed thoughtful. After all, having many trainers was a good thing. Hiss instantly thought of some absolutely wildly popular business ideas, such as launching a "Trainer and Pokémon" combo meal, providing food and drinks for the trainers' Pokémon to attract customers, and so on. However, looking at the other shops on the street, Hiss realized that there were quite a few smart people in this world, and at least others had thought of the ideas he had.

It's become incredibly competitive. As Heath walked along, he saw that the trainer and Pokémon meals were becoming increasingly diverse, with things like "unique Pokémon meals carefully prepared by master breeders" appearing everywhere. This made Heath somewhat amused and exasperated. It could be said that Fuchsia City is a city that has prospered because of its trainers. Heath also saw the hunting area, which was very lively, with stalls and shops everywhere. However, the most abundant items were still all kinds of Pokémon. Heath even saw a Primarina leap out of the water.

Full of energy and vitality—that's Heath's strongest feeling.

“If Crimson Lotus Town is a senile old man, then Scarlet City is a vibrant young man.” Heath shook his head; the contrast with Crimson Lotus Town was too stark.

Red Lotus Town is shrouded in a somber atmosphere. Everyone is pondering their future, wondering which city to choose. Some are reluctant to leave their homeland and are trying their best to preserve it, while others choose to stay in Red Lotus Town rather than leave for the time being. The nearby volcano is like a countdown, constantly reminding the people here that Red Lotus Town will eventually become a wasteland, everything will be lost, and people will eventually have to leave their homes.

So although there are still quite a few people in Honglian Town, there is a sense of gloom and despondency. People have no confidence or hope in this land, and this land can no longer respond to people's prayers.

"Master, if people will eventually die, then what is the meaning of life?" Just as Heath was looking around to find a place to set up a stall, he heard Xiaoyao's question. After hearing Xiaoyao's question, Heath couldn't help but glance at her. Seeing her blank look, Heath's lips twitched.

"Congratulations, Xiaoyao, you've begun to ponder the ultimate questions of life." Heath was somewhat at a loss for words, after all, this was a question that had puzzled countless philosophers even in his previous life.

Everyone dies eventually; it's unavoidable. Even the wealthiest people in their past lives, who received millions of dollars worth of life-extending injections every month, still had to die eventually. You could say there was a lot of unfairness in their past lives, but death is the only fair thing. Everyone has to die; the only difference is whether they die sooner or later.

Even emperors like Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han died, as did ordinary beggars. Death is fair to everyone; regardless of your status, you must all embrace death.

But this raises a question: since everyone dies eventually, what is the meaning of life?

No matter what you do, a hundred years from now you'll just be a handful of dust, let alone a thousand or ten thousand years from now. Even if the world's technology develops to a great extent, it will have nothing to do with the dead. From the moment a person dies, life is nothingness. All memories and all the beauty of the future are irrelevant to them. This is why countless people fear death.

“It is precisely because we will all die that we should cherish this beautiful world even more,” Heath said with a smile. He remembered that there were many theories and even papers on this topic in his previous life, but Heath had not read them much. After all, he was not a philosopher; he was a cook.

Seeing Xiaoyao's thoughtful expression, Heath smiled. Young people are prone to having strange and wonderful questions. Heath himself had been trapped in fear for a long time. He was afraid of death, afraid that after losing consciousness, everything in this world would be irrelevant to him. But after realizing that death is something everyone has to go through, Heath came to terms with it. Ultimately, it is up to the person involved to get through this.

"Haruka, would you like to eat Blizzard ice cream from Fuchsia City?" Heath asked with a smile. Haruka immediately snapped out of her reverie about life and happily raised her hand to indicate that she wanted to eat it. Heath almost laughed; children are really easy to coax.

“There’s a shop over there, go buy one and bring it up.” Heath stopped the food cart, and outside was a bustling Blizzard ice cream shop.

Blizzard Ice Cream is a chain store that originated in Fuchsia City. They specialize in ice cream and their ice cream tastes very good. They also frequently introduce new products and their prices are affordable. As a result, they quickly opened branches in various cities in the Kanto League. The Blizzard Ice Cream logo is a Blizzard King, specifically a Shiny Blizzard King.

The weather in Asakusa City was a bit muggy today, but it didn't affect Heath much. He only asked Haruka to go downstairs to buy ice cream to distract her, and it turned out to be very effective.

"Huh?" Heath paused for a moment, looking curiously at the old man walking past. The man was very old; age spots, white hair, wrinkles, and loose skin all proved his age. But what surprised Heath was that he had a badge box on his waist.

Chapter 1028 Familiar Translation Style

"An old horse in its stall still aspires to gallop a thousand miles." Hiss stared at the old man in disbelief. To be honest, since transmigrating to the world of Pokémon, Hiss had met quite a few trainers. He had even met Ash, the future Pokémon Master, and Lance. Cynthia had even become his girlfriend. But to be honest, Hiss had never met a trainer this old. And what was more important was that this trainer was collecting Gym Badges and would most likely challenge the Kanto League. That was quite remarkable.

In reality, while everyone in the Pokémon world is a trainer, they come in different forms. There are trainers who collect gym badges and challenge leagues to become the strongest and win the championship, and there are trainers who travel around to see the sights, challenge gyms casually, and have no intention of competing for the championship. However, the most common type of trainer is actually someone who, after being a trainer for a while, returns to being an ordinary person. They still have to go to work, earn money, watch the Pokémon League, and cheer for their favorite players. These ordinary people make up the majority of the Pokémon world.

After all, not everyone can become a trainer, right? Crops need someone to take care of them, companies need employees, and the League needs staff. So most people who don't have enough talent or money to travel will return to ordinary life. However, they can still adopt some small Pokémon. Eevee is the most popular, since it's cute and eats little. Then there are some cat-shaped and dog-shaped Pokémon.

Trainers like Ash, who can become Pokémon Masters at the age of ten, are extremely rare. It's safe to say that there's no one like him before, and it's unclear whether anyone will ever be like him again. If a Pokémon anime that doesn't focus on Ash is released in the future, it's hard to say that an even more amazing Pokémon Master will emerge.

However, most trainers are young people. After all, traveling and raising Pokémon is a time-consuming activity, and battles also require a high level of skill from the trainers. Unless they lay a solid foundation when they are young, they can only achieve something when they are old, such as Elite Four member Genji and Elite Four member Kiku.

So, seeing an elderly man who should be enjoying his retirement at home running around collecting gym badges, you can imagine how shocked Heath was. Heath himself never imagined that one day he would see an old man collecting gym badges. It was really hard to say what to say. However, looking at the badge box, Heath knew that this old man was serious. He had already collected a full five gym badges.

Five Gym Badges are a number that even the average trainer might not be able to collect. Most trainers who lack talent or effort will fail at the fourth Gym because, according to the League's rules, once three badges have been collected, the Gym will begin to test the strength of the trainers, and those who are not strong enough will not be able to pass the test.

Of course, it's not that difficult. Heath thinks that players who have played Pokémon games in their previous lives only need to get used to it and it won't be hard to pass the fourth gym. The most difficult gyms in a regional league are often the last two, especially the last one. Trainers who can collect seven gym badges will directly battle the gym leader in the final battle. Therefore, there are some considerations for the order in which gyms are challenged. There are even reviews online about how to choose the last gym leader.

Heath had previously checked, and according to current information, the Water-type Gym in Cerulean City, which is Misty's Gym, is the most recommended final challenge. However, some people are very determined to challenge those high-difficulty Gyms, and some even said that they must personally witness the power of Giovanni, which made Heath somewhat amused and exasperated.

Hiss felt that Giovanni was probably not serious when facing most trainers, since Giovanni's Beedrill had never appeared, and he usually used Pokémon like Nidoking to deal with his challengers.

"Master! Here's an ice cream!" Just as Hiss was pondering a problem, he felt a cool breeze emanating from his side. He turned his head and saw a large ice cream. It was bought by May, and May had bought many. She gave one to each of Hiss's Pokémon, even giving one to his Ice-type Snorlax. However, Hiss was still very happy to see Snorlax. For Snorlax, being able to eat was a very happy thing.

"Thank you, May." Heath smiled. May was quite a good girl, knowing how to share with others. This was probably because children in the Pokémon world matured earlier. After all, ten-year-olds could be sent on solo trips by their families. Would that have been possible in her previous life? Impossible. On the contrary, it would have likely led to her family calling the police. Let alone traveling all over the country, even going to a friend's house without telling her parents and not coming home for one night would have worried them to death.

However, Heath hesitated a bit about where to set up the food truck this time. He didn't know where he should choose. Normally, the dojo would be a good choice, but Heath also knew that the dojo was very popular, so there would probably be a lot of people there. After hesitating for a while, Heath found a relatively good location next to the commercial area, which was also close to the school and residential area.

After parking the food truck, Heath finished eating the ice cream that Haruka had bought before preparing to open for business.

However, before Heath could open for business, he heard a knock on the door. Curious, Heath opened the door and found an Alakazam standing there.

"Oh, my old friend, have you missed old Kod since we last met?" Alakazam smiled and opened his arms. Heath was stunned for a moment, then looked at Kod with delight. He really didn't expect to meet Mr. Kod in Fuchsia City. After all, Kod had always worked in Viridian City. How did he suddenly end up here?
