I opened a restaurant in the Pokémon world.

"The only things in this world that are impossible to look directly at are the sun and death." Heath took a deep breath and then shook his head. No matter what, Ms. Lori was gone. He just wondered if those who hurt Ms. Lori had been executed. Only then could Ms. Lori's soul be comforted.

Chapter 1060 The Sixth Sense!

Historia stroked his chin, looking thoughtfully at the handsome guy and Gym Leader Ajuga. The two were chatting, which was quite unexpected, but upon closer inspection, it wasn't strange at all. After all, Ajuga was currently the Gym Leader of Fuchsia City in the Kanto League, and was considered one of the strongest in the Fuchsia area. So, it was perfectly normal in the Pokémon League that even an Interpol agent like the handsome guy might need Ajuga's assistance in some situations, and it wasn't surprising at all.

The Pokémon League has certain strict requirements for its Gym Leaders. One of these requirements is that in special circumstances, they must cooperate with Interpol, the League's investigation team, and Officer Jenny to carry out operations, such as apprehending criminal organizations or investigating poaching groups. These tasks fall within the Gym Leader's responsibilities, so it's not unusual. Of course, smaller towns like Pallet Town may not have Gym Leaders, but they can still enjoy similar services because Gym Leaders have a sphere of influence. In Pallet Town, Giovanni often handles the affairs of the Gym Leaders.

However, since Professor Oak is in Pallet Town, there aren't many things that Giovanni needs to deal with. Although Professor Oak is getting old, he is still enough to make Pallet Town a place that many criminals avoid. Moreover, as a small town, Pallet Town doesn't really have anything particularly attractive, although occasionally some criminal gangs will wander over and cause trouble.

"Gym Leader Aju, I'll have to trouble you this time." The handsome man smiled sincerely. After all, the other party was one of his own, so his attitude was very good. Moreover, in Fuchsia City, having a Gym Leader's cooperation would make his operation much smoother.

"Don't worry, I'll cooperate fully." A-Ju said with a smile. When he saw the handsome guy sitting across from him, his face darkened, but when the other guy spoke, he felt much more at ease. The other guy didn't say anything about needing his cooperation in the investigation. Instead, he told him about some tasks assigned by the League. Interpol had been monitoring a poaching gang that roamed various League regions. These guys specialized in poaching shiny Pokémon and selling them on the black market for a high price. At the worst time, they even killed a shiny Gyarados and a shiny Machamp.

Their behavior was extremely egregious and their attitude was incredibly arrogant. Enraged, the League dispatched a large number of personnel to search for this group. Now, the League has solid intelligence that these guys have fled to Fuchsia City in the Kanto League, and their target is the star Pokémon of the Safari Zone, a Shiny Dewprik.

This shiny sea lion arrived in the hunting grounds at some unknown time and settled in a lake connected to the sea. It was a very attractive sea lion with a beautiful voice, but it never became anyone's Pokémon. It always skillfully dodged Poké Balls, and even when given lots of candy, the sea lion wouldn't fall for it. So, over time, people got used to not catching the shiny sea lion, but instead feeding it Pokémon food and listening to it sing.

This time, the gang's target was the exotic spotted sea lion.

Although the exact location is known, the lake in the hunting grounds is very large and has an inlet to the sea, making it difficult to defend it completely. Moreover, there's no reason to defend against thieves for a thousand days straight. The Alliance cannot support such a huge expenditure. If we have to defend against thieves every day, the manpower costs and other costs incurred in deploying the defenses will be enormous in just one month.

Moreover, if the other party knew they weren't causing trouble, the alliance couldn't keep dragging it out indefinitely, could it? Delaying for a month or two might be manageable, but what if it dragged on for half a year? If the other party realized something was wrong and left to commit crimes elsewhere, the alliance couldn't possibly continue to guard this place, could it? Therefore, the alliance's idea was to strike at the heart of the matter. After spending a considerable amount of time, the alliance finally tracked down those guys, and tonight was the time to launch the operation and close the net.

You entertained the handsome guy; you've gained Interpol's sixth sense.

"?" Heath was somewhat taken aback. Goodness, what's this thing that's given me feels strange? But this did surprise Heath. He touched his pocket and didn't feel anything, which proved that the thing shouldn't be a physical entity.

[Interpol's Sixth Sense: You will possess a wondrous sixth sense, sometimes allowing you to foresee strange things (after reaching 100 premonitions, your sixth sense will upgrade to precognition)]

Heath was stunned. Good heavens, this time he was given such a strange thing? However, this sixth sense was quite peculiar. Heath knew about this thing. It was basically the ability to sense some strange things, such as suddenly having a premonition that something bad was about to happen. That was the sixth sense. Or in some detective TV series and movies, when the protagonist is investigating a case, he will suddenly feel that someone is suspicious or that there is something suspicious about a certain place. That can also be considered a kind of sixth sense.

What surprised Heath the most was that this sixth sense could be upgraded, and even upgraded to the ability to foresee the future. However, it required quite a few attempts, a hundred times, and he didn't know how easy it would be to achieve.

Just as Heath was pondering, he suddenly paused, and then a strange feeling welled up inside him. He subconsciously glanced at the lounge, where the door was closed, but Heath knew that his Pokémon were there. He had just felt a sense of unease, as if something bad was trying to harm his Pokémon.

"Sixth sense... triggered so quickly?" Heath was somewhat surprised. This sixth sense did come into play quite quickly, and it clearly pointed out that it was related to his Pokémon. However, the only drawback was that he didn't know the specifics of what it was, but it was definitely related to his Pokémon.

Heath stroked his chin. Although Heath often said that his food truck was unsafe, it was actually quite strong in some ways. Apart from legendary Pokémon and Mew, no one else could get in. Heath even had Cynthia's Garchomp test it, but it couldn't break through the food truck's defenses and was even injured by its own force.

As long as the Pokémon are in the food truck, Sheath isn't too worried about anything going wrong, unless it's a legendary Pokémon that's bad for her Pokémon.

Chapter 1061 Officer Jenny's Vacation Time

The handsome guy and Aju left quickly, still whispering to each other. If you didn't know better, you'd think they were one of those mysterious people near the train station claiming to have something good, followed by bewildered teenagers. Heath clicked his tongue when he saw this. Aju and the handsome guy had given him some strange things, but what pleased Heath the most was the reward he received. Sixth Sense, a passive skill, was so great—easy, simple, and useful. Moreover, it could be upgraded to a move like Foresight in the future. He just didn't know if this Foresight was the kind of Foresight he was thinking of, or the Foresight move from Pokémon.

While the Foresight ability in Pokémon is useful, it's nowhere near as powerful as the Foresight that Hiss wants. The Foresight Hiss desires can directly predict future events, which is an incredible ability. However, the cheat system doesn't provide any explanation for this Foresight, so Hiss himself isn't entirely clear on its type. But overall, it's more than enough for his needs, and Hiss is quite reassured.

"Hello~ A serving of Heath's Little Brother's pure milk~" Heath was stunned for a moment. Goodness, did he have this in his food cart? But when he looked up, he knew what was going on. Heath's eyes widened in surprise. To be honest, he really didn't expect to see the person in front of him in this place.

"Sister Ling? What brings you here?" Heath was somewhat delighted, because standing in front of him was none other than Officer Sally, the veteran driver. Heath had only seen Officer Sally before in Maple Leaf City, and he never expected to run into her here. This was quite a surprise to Heath.

"Of course I came to see you! Little Brother Heath almost forgot about his big sister, and I was so sad~" Looking at Officer Sally's appearance, Heath was a little amused, but he also felt that this was the Officer Sally he knew, and his heart felt much lighter. After all, if Officer Sally suddenly became serious, Heath felt that would be a very scary thing.

Fortunately, Officer Jenny was still very serious. After all, Heath's food truck was quite lively at the moment, so she quickly regained her composure, ordered a plate of egg fried rice, and then sat down to wait for Heath's cooking.

Heath glanced at Officer Jenny. Although she seemed normal and didn't do anything strange, Heath felt something was off about her. Heath had often followed Maple and the others, so she knew Officer Jenny's routines very well. Generally, Officer Jenny had holidays, but not many, and it was best for them to stay in the city during their holidays so they could provide immediate support if anything happened. So, Heath had never seen anyone like Officer Jenny travel from Vermilion City to Fuchsia City.

This made Heath somewhat worried that something might have happened to Officer Jenny.

If Zoroark hadn't also been able to see Officer Jenny, Heath would have suspected that Officer Jenny was already dead and that what he was seeing was her soul. But thankfully, Officer Jenny is still alive.

"Egg fried rice... It's late, but it's here." Heath shook his head. These days, it feels like you're not quite right for yourself if you don't make egg fried rice. It's a very strange feeling. But strictly speaking, egg fried rice is indeed a very simple and common type of fried rice. It's easy to make and uses simple ingredients. There's no difficulty. As long as your cooking skills aren't disastrous, you shouldn't have any problem making this kind of egg fried rice.

However, there are actually two ways to make fried rice with eggs. The first one is the simplest: just heat oil in a pan, pour in the eggs, stir them, and then add rice and salt to stir-fry and serve. The second one is a little more complicated. Simply put, you coat the rice with the egg mixture before frying. This way, you can't see the eggs in the fried rice, but you can still taste the flavor of eggs. The textures are quite different. If Heath had to say it, it probably has nothing to do with eggs. The rice and oil are the most important ingredients, and the eggs are just a supporting role.

Leftover rice is fine, as is rice with low moisture content. As for oil, lard is the best choice.

Although many people talk about lard, with some citing scientific evidence that it's unhealthy, it's undeniable that fried rice cooked with lard tastes significantly different from fried rice cooked with vegetable oil. Fried rice cooked with lard is much more fragrant and delicious. Some restaurants even collect the leftover oil from cooking and store it separately, adding a little to their dishes later to enhance the aroma and flavor—a truly ingenious method. However, this practice is often not well-received by their customers.

Take the term "wok hei" (wok aroma) for example. Many people think it's outrageous and definitely a marketing ploy by restaurants. But wok hei is indeed present, and people who eat there regularly can tell the difference. It's a feeling that's hard to describe.

There's an unspoken understanding in the catering industry about "recycled oil." Oil that has been used for cooking is called recycled oil, and cooking with recycled oil makes dishes taste better. Although Heath himself wasn't quite sure why, it's said to be due to some kind of chemical reaction.

"Tsk tsk, I should have studied harder back then, otherwise I wouldn't be able to explain anything now." Heath shook his head, then casually scooped the fried rice out of the pot and had Zoroark serve it to Officer Jenny.

Aya eats very ordinary fried rice, so Heath cooks it quickly. He had actually considered making Emperor Fried Rice, but considering that Aya didn't like it, he gave up on the idea.

Aya remained seated until the afternoon when fewer customers arrived. Only then did she slowly approach him, and Heath quickly stood up straight. He could tell that Officer Sala had something very serious to say to him, and it was best to be serious at this time, otherwise Officer Sala would let others personally experience what it meant to be the third-ranked fighter in Unrestricted Combat.

“Heath.” Officer Jenny’s expression was relaxed, showing no sign that anything important had happened.

However, Heath's expression became even more serious; such moments usually indicate something big is about to happen.

"I saved up half a year's vacation time to get these few days, so hurry up and take me to have some fun~" Officer Sally said with a smile. Heath was stunned for a moment. Goodness, he thought she was going to talk about something heavy, but he didn't expect her to say this.

Chapter 1062 How to deal with poison dart frogs?

"Aya, are you sure you're alright?" Heath looked at Officer Jenny humming a song, feeling a bit strange. It wasn't that Heath was paranoid, but Officer Jenny's behavior was indeed very puzzling, making one unable to help but overthink. It was like a very stingy relative who would skimp on food, suddenly becoming generous, treating people to meals and outings. Anyone would wonder if something was wrong with that relative, otherwise there would be no reason for them to act this way. And that was exactly the feeling Heath got from Officer Jenny.

"Of course I'm fine, don't overthink it. I really just came out to have some fun." Officer Sally shook her head, both amused and exasperated. Seeing Officer Sally's expression, Heath was at a loss. Although he felt that something was wrong with his sister Sally, he wasn't quite sure. For now, he could only leave it at that. Anyway, if there really was something wrong, Heath felt that Sally wouldn't be able to hide it. She was never someone who could keep her feelings to herself.

Officer Jenny left, humming a song as she went. It was clear that she was in a good mood. Seeing this, Heath could only assume that he was overthinking things, so he simply continued to serve his guests. Although there were fewer guests in the afternoon, since it wasn't lunchtime yet, people were still coming to eat one after another. Heath had already sold two servings of his dry pot bullfrog, and now he only needed one more to complete today's task.

"Uncle, is your dry-pot bullfrog delicious?" A boy walked in and asked Heath curiously. Zoroark, who was on the way, was originally going to greet him, but when the boy saw Zoroark, he looked like he had seen a ghost and ran to Heath like lightning. Heath was stunned, and Zoroark was also dumbfounded, staring blankly. Then he even pinched his own face. Heath thought that Zoroark was questioning his existence, wondering if he had accidentally pinched a particularly ugly face. Otherwise, there was no reason why this boy would look at her like he had seen a ghost.

"It tastes good, it should suit you quite well." Heath subconsciously glanced at the top of the boy's head. The boy's favorite flavor was exactly the essence of dry pot bullfrog, so there was no need to make any changes to satisfy him. Moreover, judging from his food preferences, this boy was a frog lover.

"That's great, please give me one." The boy paid immediately, but then he saw Zoroark and frantically pulled up a chair and sat down opposite Heath.

"..." Zoroark was dumbfounded. She had just confirmed that she was an impeccably beautiful girl today, and was thinking of going over to ask her and then leading her to a seat. She didn't expect that the other person would run away as soon as he saw her. To be honest, this made Zoroark a little upset. You see, the seat opposite the trainer wasn't off-limits, but very few people would sit there, unless it was during mealtimes when it was crowded. Of course, some customers liked to watch the trainer cook and would deliberately sit in that seat. But this boy was clearly afraid of her.

"..." Heath also wanted to laugh a little. This was really rare to see Zoroark suffer a setback. After all, it was usually impossible to see Zoroark suffer a setback. Zoroark was highly regarded among the guests who came to eat. After all, the face that Zoroark created was really top-notch, and people couldn't help but take another look.

However, Heath didn't pay much attention to it. Since the guests were coming, he could just cook for them. After he finished cooking, he would receive a gourmet guide for poison dart frogs. Heath was quite curious about how the gourmet guide would describe this ingredient. You see, since Heath got the gourmet guide, there are very few ingredients that can be included in the gourmet guide. It was rare to see one that could be included in the gourmet guide, so Heath was very interested.

Because he had prepared in advance, Heath quickly cooked the dry pot bullfrog and served it to the boy, along with a bowl of rice. Then, Heath went to clean up his pots and pans. There weren't many customers yet, so he could wash them carefully.

You have completed the mission and received a poison dart frog.

[Food Guide Updated]

Two notifications popped up, and then Heath heard the croaking of frogs coming from his cupboard. The croaking was strange, sounding like a child crying. It was rather eerie, especially at night, but Heath didn't care. He wasn't afraid of ghosts or anything like that; he could just have Zoroark handle it.

He first opened a food guide and looked at it, realizing that he still needed to have some understanding of his ingredients before cooking.

Poison dart frog

[35000 satisfaction points can be redeemed for one]

This is a type of frog with highly venomous secretions from its skin. The venom secreted on its skin can be fatal upon contact with blood; it is an exceptionally potent toxin. However, because its taste is so irresistibly delicious, it has become extremely rare in modern times. Every time it appears, it becomes a highly competitive auction. Because this frog's skin contains a potent toxin, the entire skin must be removed without allowing any blood to contaminate the meat before it can be safely consumed.

The brief hint made Heath stroke his chin. Just seeing the satisfaction rating of 35,000, he knew how ruthless this poison dart frog was. Even lava eels didn't have that high a rating. Fortunately, Heath had accumulated quite a few satisfaction ratings, so he could eat as much as he wanted if he really wanted to. Moreover, after opening the cabinet, Heath discovered that although the poison dart frog was expensive, it was also really big.

It's as big as three or four bullfrogs, truly a giant among frogs.

Heath even wondered if this creature might evolve into a Pokémon in the future? That doesn't seem impossible.

“It’s highly poisonous… We need to be careful when handling it, but the problem of not letting the poisonous blood contaminate the meat is a bit of a hassle…” Heath stroked his chin, then took out his phone to check if he could find a recipe for poison dart frogs.

Surprisingly, I actually found it; it was on a video website, and the number of views was astonishing.

Heath also clicked to watch it. The video wasn't very long, but the chef omitted a very important step: how to remove the skin from the poison dart frog. The camera cut to the poison dart frog, and the frog was now just smooth meat. So Heath still didn't know how to handle the skin.

It seems I'll have to ask someone else.

Chapter 1063 Qiu Yue

However, Heath didn't have high expectations to begin with. After all, such unique skills are generally not easily passed on to outsiders. Heath just wanted to try and see if he could get a chance to see it. Naturally, he didn't get to see it. Heath scratched his head. If he didn't know the specific skinning method, he would have to try it himself. Trying it himself didn't seem like a bad idea, but that would be a bit troublesome. He didn't know how many he would have to try. So, Heath tried sending a private message to the other party and asked about the method of making poison dart children.

After asking around, Heath also checked his phone to see if he could find the specific instructions there. However, to Heath's disappointment, he didn't find any instructions there. There were practically no instructions for dealing with poison dart children online. Heath even searched for a full twenty minutes without finding any methods for dealing with poison dart children. It seems that this thing has not been published online.

"If that's the case, then I'll have to try to go to the market tomorrow and ask, or now..." Just as Heath was pondering how to solve this problem, his phone received a message. He subconsciously clicked on it and saw that it was an in-app message from the video website. Heath instantly became much more serious. He was somewhat expectant, but also a little nervous about what he would see later. After clicking on it, Heath found that it was a reply from the video blogger.

Hello, if you would like to learn how to deal with poison dart children, please provide a tuition fee of 12,000 Alliance Coins, and I will send you the detailed process.

Hiss gave a very brief reply, and his lips twitched. Twelve thousand Alliance Coins wasn't a lot; Hiss could afford it. Besides, he did need a solution, so he directly asked for the other party's account. However, to his surprise, the other party said they needed to sign a contract offline, which Hiss agreed to. Coincidentally, the other party was actually in Shallow Red City, which saved Hiss a lot of time. After all, it was much more convenient for him if the other party wasn't in Shallow Red City; otherwise, it would have been quite troublesome.

A moment later, a person with long, dark blue hair walked in. When the person entered, Heath was stunned for a moment because he found that he couldn't tell whether the person was male or female. The person had a very androgynous appearance. The long hair made the person look somewhat like a woman, but the presence of an Adam's apple seemed to prove that the person was a man. Heath thought it should be a man. He had seen men with long hair before, but he had never seen a woman with an Adam's apple.

"Hello, are you Mr. Heath?" The other person spoke, but it was a woman's voice. This confused Heath again. He couldn't be sure if the other person was a man or a woman. It was so hard to understand. Heath was a little bewildered, but he still nodded. After all, the other person had asked, and it wouldn't be good if he didn't answer.

"Okay, I'm Qiu Yue's Kitchen, the creator of Pili Video. Please sign the contract." The other party said with a smile. Heath took the contract and looked at it carefully. After confirming that there were no problems, he signed his name. This was his habit, a habit he was forced to develop. Heath didn't have this habit before, but he had no choice. He had almost been scammed before, so since that day, Heath had become cautious and always on guard against being scammed.

After signing, Heath also learned the gender of the person who signed the document; it was a man.

“Mr. Heath, now I will tell you the specific steps.” Qiu Yue said with a smile. The other party was a man, but Heath felt that the other party was like a woman, especially like a woman. The clothes were okay, rather neutral, but the voice and demeanor were just like a woman’s. However, Heath did not care too much. He had long since seen through the vanities of the world.

Before he time-traveled, Heath once saw a girl dressed in Lolita fashion on the street, only to find out upon closer inspection that she was a man.

"There's a poison dart child here. Could you please handle it on the spot?" Heath pulled out the poison dart child, and Qiu Yue was stunned when he saw it. He looked at Heath with some surprise, obviously not expecting to see a poison dart child here. These things are not easy to see in the entire Shallow Red City. However, having a real one would indeed make teaching more convenient, so Qiu Yue didn't say anything, but patiently handled it, and even slowed down the process.

However, a small incident occurred during this time. Qiu Yue noticed that Xiao Yao and Farfetch'd were watching curiously from the side, and his expression became somewhat troubled. Fortunately, Heath did not make things difficult for him, but directly made up for Farfetch'd and Xiao Yao's money, since he was not short of money anyway.

"Is this... Green Onion Duck also a chef?" Qiu Yue was a little confused, but after seeing the Green Onion Duck deliberately showing off its cooking skills, Qiu Yue finally realized that this Green Onion Duck was indeed a chef, and the kind with very good cooking skills.

However, after resolving this issue, Qiu Yue successfully completed her teaching duties, and Heath had learned how to deal with this poison arrow child.

"Then I'll be going now," Qiu Yue said with a smile, but was stopped by Heath.

"Chef Qiu Yue, aren't you planning to have a meal?" Heath asked with a smile. The main reason he kept Qiu Yue here was to see what she would give him as a treat. He was curious whether she would reward him with a recipe or something similar.

"Hmm? Okay." Qiu Yue paused for a moment, then smiled and sat down politely, ordering food as well.

Poison arrow child.

Qiu Yue chose the poison arrow child.

This left Hiss somewhat bewildered, as it was his first time making a poison dart doll, so the price was a question. However, Qiu Yue then gave him a full 83,000 Alliance Coins.

"This price is a bit low, but it's all the money I have with me today..." Qiu Yue looked a little embarrassed. He was both amused and exasperated. He remembered that Qiu Yue was a popular content creator on that video website. How come she only had so little money? But he didn't care. He nodded and accepted the money.

When he checked before, he found that the poison dart baby had sold for 80,000 at the last auction, which was not very high. The reason was that not many people eat frogs, so the price could not go up.

Chapter 1064: What Should We Uphold Between Tradition and What We Like?

It's like durian; although it's expensive, its taste is very particular, so not many people are willing to eat it. Therefore, although durian is expensive, it's not that high. Heath sees poison dart frogs as a similar case. They can only fetch a high price in Fuchsia City. Of course, if Heath were to auction them, he could get an even higher price. However, Heath isn't particularly interested in making money, so the price Qiu Yue offered is within Heath's acceptable range.

"As for the cooking method..." Heath glanced at the top of Qiu Yue's head. He needed to confirm Qiu Yue's preferred taste and requirements for food. However, upon seeing this, Heath's expression became strange. To be honest, he had rarely seen such a unique taste and food requirement. It could be said that among the many customers Heath had met, Qiu Yue was the type of chef that would make any chef's scalp tingle. After all, colleagues are often rivals, especially when the other party's cooking skills were not only good, but also had such a unique taste.
