I opened a restaurant in the Pokémon world.

The Pokémon world is not only home to medical staff who treat Pokémon, but also to medical staff who treat ordinary people. However, Dawn is special because she wants to apply for a medical position at the Pokémon Center, which is an extremely difficult task.

After all, the treatment work at Pokémon Centers has basically been monopolized by the Nurse Joy family. In every region and league, the Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny families have established themselves there. It is quite difficult for someone who is not from the Nurse Joy family to join a Pokémon Center.

The Nurse Joy family not only has strict requirements for their own members, but also for others who want to become Pokémon medical professionals. As some have joked, if medical students live in the hell of the college entrance exam every day, then Pokémon medical students are already living in hell.

Therefore, there is a saying in the Pokémon world: "If you persuade someone to study medicine, you will be struck by lightning; if you persuade someone to study Pokémon medicine, you will be torn to pieces." This shows how difficult it is for someone who is not from the Joy family to become a Pokémon healer.

Heath remembered that the girl in front of her was already in her fifth year of study, but she still hadn't succeeded in joining the Pokémon Center and wearing the uniform she dreamed of.

"This is... my own summary, but drinking some tea can't hurt, can it?" Heath scratched his head. Popularizing traditional Chinese medicine in the Pokémon world was an incredibly difficult task, especially since the world didn't have the medicinal herbs that were commonly seen before.

Otherwise, Heath felt that becoming a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner or collaborating with the Joy family on research and development would be a great idea. If successful, wouldn't he achieve financial freedom and become a legend?

However, Heath only thought about it. After all, he had never read any of the classic Chinese medicine books or basic books like the Compendium of Materia Medica. The reason he could remember that Job's tears tea could remove dampness was because he had drunk it before.

"Hmm...now that you mention it, it does make sense. Then give me a cup of barley tea and a jianbing (Chinese crepe), no egg, and please add sausage." Xiao Guang nodded in sudden realization, which made Heath want to laugh.

"Xiao Guang, speaking of which, how many years have you been taking the Baoyi qualification exam?" Hiss said to Xiao Guang while making jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes).

"It's been six years already. The teachers at the medical certification exam all know me now. It's so hard for me." Xiao Guang sighed, hugging his books with a bitter expression.

"Didn't you pass the exam last year? What question did you get wrong?" Heath chopped the sausage into small cubes and put them into the pancake, then drizzled some ketchup on top. Xiao Guang really liked ketchup.

Xiao Guang reached out to take her backpack, but after touching it, she hesitated for a moment and then didn't take it.

"I was going to show you my notes, but it's the humid season now, so I won't take them. Anyway, it's just a short answer question. It says that a Snorlax is lying on the beach, then it gets bitten by Arbok, then bitten by Zubat, then sprayed with poison powder by Venusaur, and stung several times by Beedrill. At the same time, Nidoqueen and Nidoking are under its butt..." Looking at Dawn's endless chatter, Heath felt a chill run down his spine.

What makes Snorlax so special that it gets to receive such a generous gift? Why didn't the question setter mention that all the toxic Pokémon in the entire series were given to Snorlax?

When Heath heard the final question was about how to treat this mixed poison damage, he thought the person who asked the question must have something wrong with their head. Putting aside how a Snorlax could survive so many attacks, just finding so many Poison-type Pokémon on a beach was already quite difficult.

Heath packed the cooked pancakes into a bag and handed it to Xiaoguang along with a cup of barley tea.

"...Good luck!" Heath looked at the miserable Dawn, and all the words in his heart could only be condensed into this one sentence. Pokémon medical care is really not something anyone can do. Thinking about it, Nurse Joy really has it tough.

The Joy family has very strict assessments of its members. Every Miss Joy who passes the assessment is trustworthy, which explains why the Alliance has no objection to the Joy family's control of medical resources.

The Joey and Jenny families are the constants, while the alliances come and go. This is the reality of every alliance. No matter what region the alliance is in, the Joey and Jenny families will always be the cornerstone of those places.

[You entertained Dawn, and you received "Pokémon Basic Pharmacology"]

Heath looked at the thick book in the cabinet, which could kill someone, and closed the cabinet door with a heavy expression. He felt that he would never open the book in his life and then try to torture himself.

"...I was so stupid, why did I have to read this kind of book?" Looking at the thick, daunting book on Pokémon basic pharmacology in his hand, Heath regretted it.

The humid weather and the lingering fog made Heath's business very poor today. So, out of sheer boredom, Heath couldn't resist opening the cabinet and taking out the book.

After looking at it for a while, Heath regretted it. It was full of all sorts of medical terms and words. Heath knew all the words, but when they were put together, he didn't know what they meant.

Heath decisively locked the book back in the cupboard. He vowed that he would rather teach Onion Duck a few more dishes than try to read this book again. This book was only suitable for the doctor.

[You have triggered a special mission: give away 30 cups of Job's tears tea to people in need for free. You will receive a random puzzle piece as a reward.]

Heath was stunned for a moment. It really was like sitting in a car and a mission just fell from the sky. How could a mission be triggered while sitting still?

Although Heath was a little reluctant to give it away for free, considering the mission rewards, she decided to go for it. Although the rewards from the cheat system were sometimes a bit strange, most of the time the cheat system was very reliable.

Thirty cups of Job's tears tea wasn't difficult, especially since it was a free gift. Heath grabbed Officer Jenny, who was patrolling on a motorcycle, and handed out all thirty cups of Job's tears tea.

You have obtained a random puzzle piece.

A puzzle piece also appeared in Heath's pocket. Heath took out a puzzle piece, which was white, and then there was nothing else.

"This task is quite simple, but what's the use of this reward?" Heath stared blankly at the white puzzle piece in his hand. Was this supposed to be a Gardevoir in a wedding dress for him?

Completely baffled, Heath could only put the item away for now, hoping it might come in handy later when he had more puzzle pieces.

Chapter 88 Officer Sassoon

"It's almost midnight, and there are really few customers." Heath glanced at his old, beat-up phone and sighed. He clearly wanted to make some money, but he didn't expect there to be so few customers today.

However, this is a common occurrence during the humid season, especially in foggy weather. Going out means getting a lot of dew on your head, essentially getting a free hair wash, so relatively few people are willing to leave their offices or homes.

Moreover, Heath felt that although his dishes tasted good, they weren't good enough to make customers addicted and want to come back to eat them every day.

In reality, if Heath could really do that, Officer Jenny would probably bring people to thoroughly investigate Heath's food truck immediately to see if Heath had added any prohibited items. This is similar to how some restaurant owners in my previous life would add dangerous things to their food to make customers addicted.

"Hey, Big Green Duck, speaking of which, aren't you quite skilled with a knife?" Heath asked, glancing at Big Green Duck who was still practicing flipping the wok.

"Onion?" Farfetch'd tilted its head in confusion, looking at Heath, then nodded with a confident expression.

"Congcong said his knife skills are extremely strong." Soroya rolled over in his chair, lying down with the book in his arms and reading.

Heath smiled with satisfaction. He liked this kind of confident Pokémon. With that thought, Heath opened the cabinet and took out the Mist Sword, the Peerless Blade of Heaven and Earth, which he had won in the lottery.

"Try this knife and see how it is." Heath handed the Three-Day Knife to Farfetch'd. Farfetch'd took it, stroked the blade with interest, and then held it in his hand. However, Farfetch'd held it a little strangely, making the knife look rather unusable.

"Wrong, wrong, you have to hold it like this." Heath took the Three-Day Sword and then struck a pose like holding a katana in a game. Farfetch'd suddenly realized what was going on, took it, and picked up the sword again in Heath's pose.

Heath nodded in satisfaction. Farfetch'd seemed to have pretty good arm strength now, as it could even lift the Three-Day Blade. However, the Three-Day Blade was too long, and it seemed that the League did not allow Pokémon to use these weapons in regular battles.

"It's a pity that those techniques can't be used in this world, otherwise I could have Najuden." Heath sighed regretfully, then put away his katana. This thing was useless against Farfetch'd; Farfetch'd was better off holding its green onion.

"Trainer, you seem to have a lot of weird stuff." After returning to the dining car, Zoroya looked at Hiss curiously and said this.

“Well, my hobby is collecting all sorts of weird and wonderful things.” Heath nodded, and then he saw that Zorua had taken the Dream Microphone out of the cabinet at some point.

Seeing that Zorua was about to use it, Heath rushed forward and took back the Dream Microphone, then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Isn't this a microphone? Why won't you let me use it?" Soroya looked at Heath with a pitiful expression.

"Because this thing is rather dangerous." Heath put the Dream Microphone in the cabinet and set a fingerprint lock, otherwise Zoroya would take it again next time.

Seeing Zoroya's aggrieved look, Heath ruffled her hair, then took out his phone and glanced at it; it was already midnight.

Normally, Heath would have already started receiving guests by this time, and the guests enjoyed eating at Heath's restaurant. However, the problem was that the damn thick fog showed no sign of dissipating, and Heath figured that business at noon today probably wouldn't be very good.

"You actually set up a stall secretly? You're really bold." A somewhat familiar voice came from the voice. Heath looked up in confusion and saw Officer Jenny, whom he had met just yesterday, standing in front of him with a smile.

"Are you an inspector?" Heath asked, remembering what Sister Feng had said yesterday.

"Hey, you figured out my identity. But I'm warning you, don't tell anyone I'm here." Officer Jenny paused for a moment, then said with a serious expression.

Heath nodded. He certainly wouldn't tell anyone else; he chose to text Sister Feng to let her know.

"Do you have a street vendor permit?" Officer Jenny asked Heath seriously. Heath reluctantly took out his permit from the food cart. Officer Jenny glanced at it and then nodded in satisfaction.

"Your name is Heath? Well, we're quite destined to meet. Let me introduce myself, my name is Officer Jenny." Officer Jenny said with a smile. Heath looked at the very familiar Officer Jenny and obediently called her "Sister Jenny."

"Heath, what kind of things do you usually sell here? Do you have any contraband?" Officer Sass asked Heath with a smile and a teasing look. Heath squinted at Officer Sass, feeling that this woman was simply a devil. Wasn't she trying to set him up?

"Sister Qian, you've misunderstood me. How could I possibly sell contraband? Everything I sell here is legitimate and legal," Heath said helplessly. He didn't want to be accused of selling contraband, knowing that would likely result in the confiscation of his illegal tools, such as his food cart.

"Haha, of course I know... Well, someone's here, see you next time." Officer Sassoon laughed heartily, then waved to Heath and left with a smile.

Almost immediately after Officer Jenny left, a customer came over and ordered a plate of fried rice from Heath. As Heath made the fried rice, he was amazed at how strong Officer Jenny was. He hadn't even seen anyone, yet she had already sensed someone approaching.

Being an inspector is definitely not an easy job, otherwise the Officer Jennys wouldn't affectionately call him a tattletale; his superb perception is truly enviable.

After entertaining the guest, Heath found himself with a long stretch of free time. To kill the boredom, he decided to study for his theory test in the dining car, as the test was scheduled for tomorrow.

"But if I pass the first part of the test, doesn't that mean I'll be facing the second part right away? Taking the second part of the test in this humid weather is really exciting." Heath glanced at the thick fog outside the car. At this moment, Evergreen City was like a water town shrouded in mist. Apart from the occasional calls of birds and Pokémon, you could hardly hear any other sounds.

Heath took a deep breath, feeling a slight dampness in his mouth. The cold mist hitting his face made him more alert.

"Alright, I'm motivated now, let's study!"

Chapter 89 Arcade

Heath thought he was a person with perseverance. There's a saying that goes, "Where there's a will, there's a way." At first, Heath also felt that he could definitely study well. But soon, Heath put down his book and lay down on the table.

"Ah... indeed there are some things in this world that you just can't do no matter how hard you push them, like advanced mathematics..." Heath yawned boredly; he always felt sleepy when there were no guests.

"Trainer! Trainer!" Just as Hiss was starting to think about whether he should go back to the dorm early to get some rest, he saw Zoroya jumping over with a happy expression.

"What's wrong, Zorua?" Hiss leaned over the cabinet and asked Zorua.

"Trainer, what is that arcade mentioned in the novel?" Zoroa asked curiously.

After Zoroah asked, Heath noticed that Farfetch'd had stopped tossing the pan, showing that Farfetch'd was also very interested in the arcade. Only Charmander was still resting; it had just finished a full workout, and sweat was dripping from its body.

Hiss frowned. Zorro's question wasn't strange, since the Pokémon world naturally has arcades where you can pay to get game tokens, earn points, and redeem different prizes.

However, Heath doesn't really like that kind of approach, which is similar to pursuing a PhD. That kind of thing is like the pachinko game mentioned in the old anime, which exploited a loophole in the league and has been operating ever since.

Of course, there was another reason why Heath didn't like going to the arcade.

"An arcade...an arcade is a place with all sorts of games and machines. You just put in coins and you can play. You can even win prizes and stuff." Heath explained simply, and Zoroya's eyes widened instantly, looking at Heath with anticipation.

Heath's lips twitched, then he deliberately turned his head away, but the next moment Zoroia's head reappeared in Heath's field of vision. She stared at Heath with longing eyes, her tail wagging back and forth.

"...Alright, I'll take you to see it, but don't get your expectations too high." Heath glanced at Zoroya, sighed helplessly, and Farfetch'd cheered instantly, tossing the wok over and landing steadily.

"Let's go park the car." Heath went to the driver's seat to set up the autopilot function, and then got into his food cart and drove to the arcade.

The arcade in Evergreen City is quite interesting. It's located diagonally opposite Officer Jenny's Dormitory, making it the furthest place from the dormitory in the entire city. However, the service there is still very considerate.

Heath used the autopilot function to park the car within the parking lines. Parking is very cheap here, so there are usually a lot of cars around.

Despite the humid weather and dense fog, Heath noticed that there were still many cars parked here, indicating that the arcade was quite busy.

"Phew... I hope those guys aren't here." Heath stood at the entrance of the arcade and took a deep breath.

"Trainer, what's wrong?" Zoroya asked Hiss curiously. Farfetch'd and Charmander followed Hiss, but compared to Farfetch'd's enthusiasm, Charmander looked a little listless.

"It's nothing, I just don't really want to go in." Heath looked at the glass door in front of him and licked his lips.

Seeing Zoroya's bewildered expression, Heath reached out and pushed open the door.

As soon as Heath opened the door, he saw several dance machines in the center of the arcade. This wasn't unusual, since it's not strange for an arcade to have dance machines. But what Heath found truly ridiculous were the figures swaying and dancing on the dance floor.

One after another, monstrous creatures were writhing vigorously on top of each other, accompanied by sweet singing and beautiful music, their bulging muscles making Heath gasp.

These guys are really hardworking. They even dance here during the humid weather. And next to the monstrous strength are a group of iron-palm wrestlers who are not to be outdone. They are also twisting their bodies to their hearts' content, except that the iron-palm wrestlers look more like sumo wrestlers.

So when they danced, their flesh flew up and down like waves, making Heath's scalp tingle.

"...Can we go back?" Sororia covered its eyes in anguish, trying to erase these horrific images from its memory, but so far the effect seemed minimal.

"Since you're here, let me show you around." Heath closed the door, then amiably bypassed Machamp and Iron Fist Warrior who were having a dance-off, and led Farfetch'd, who looked at Machamp with a bewildered expression, and Charmander, who was envious of Machamp's muscles, to the counter.

Heath bought 100 Alliance Coins, but due to the event held by Hui Nantian, Heath ultimately received 200 game coins, which Heath was quite satisfied with.

"Trainer! What's that?!" After escaping the bizarre dance machine, Zoroya quickly regained its energy, which made Hiss a little envious. He had spent a long time deleting the video before he could watch it successfully the first time.
