Among grass carp, those from West Lake are generally considered the finest. The environment not only nurtures the people of a particular region, but the ingredients also undergo some wonderful changes depending on the geographical location.
The most classic example is the proverb "Oranges grown south of the Huai River are sweet oranges, while those grown north of the Huai River are bitter oranges," a story that almost every Chinese person knows.
However, there is no West Lake in the world of Pokémon. Fortunately, among the ingredients purchased by the head chef were a few fish that looked quite good, so Heath decided to use them to make a dish of West Lake Vinegar Fish.
"Charmander, help me boil this pot of water." Heath quickly processed the fish in his hands, speaking to Charmander as he did so.
The little dragon nodded, then spat out a mouthful of sparks, igniting a fire and starting to boil water.
Farfetch'd watched curiously from beside Heath. It noticed that Heath's knife skills were somewhat inferior to its own, which puzzled Farfetch'd. Why didn't Heath let it cut the fish?
"While knife skills are important, knife technique is equally important." Heath noticed Farfetch'd's confusion and explained, while simultaneously slashing with his knife at an angle, leaving Farfetch'd stunned.
While preparing the West Lake Fish in Vinegar Sauce, Heath explained some tips on the placement and route of the knife to the scallion duck, but this did not affect Heath's cooking speed.
Once Heath brought out the West Lake Fish in Vinegar Sauce and poured on the sauce, a delicious-smelling dish of West Lake Fish in Vinegar Sauce was ready.
"Hmm, it'll be another hour before Sister Feng and the others get back." Heath glanced at her phone, then took out the West Lake Fish in Vinegar Sauce and placed it in front of Officer Jenny along with a bowl of rice.
"What is this?" Officer Sassoon looked at the food in front of her with some surprise; she had never seen food like this before.
"West Lake Vinegar Fish is sour, but since you like sour food, this West Lake Vinegar Fish is a bit more sour," Heath explained calmly.
Curious, Junsa picked up her chopsticks, then tore off a piece of fish, stuffed it into her mouth along with the sauce, chewed it thoroughly, and nodded in satisfaction.
"It tastes good, but I don't have any money for you... Never mind, let me tell you something. Tonight, if you go out from here and walk a little towards 11 o'clock, you'll see a really nice view." Officer Jenny said with a smile. Heath paused for a moment, but then nodded.
Normally, you don't have to pay to entertain Miss Officer Jenny, unless she sets up a stall, in which case you'll be charged. The cafeteria provides a meal allowance.
Heath didn't have the habit of watching others eat, so he went back to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for the Officer Jennys to eat when they returned in the afternoon. Some ingredients needed to be processed in advance, such as the fish from earlier.
If the fish had been kept in clean water beforehand to remove impurities, it would have tasted even better.
[You entertained Officer Jenny (the ghost), and you received a self-created special move.]
Heath paused for a moment, then stood up in astonishment. Officer Jenny was nowhere to be seen in the cafeteria; there was only a plate of fish bones and an empty bowl.
"A ghost?" Heath looked in surprise in the direction where Officer Jenny was sitting. Thinking about it carefully, although he had seen Officer Jenny three times, each time she seemed to only appear in front of him. As soon as other people came, she would leave.
Heath's expression was somewhat complicated. Why had Officer Jenny become a ghost? And why was she still in this world?
Chapter 93 Independent Innovation Techniques
"A ghost?" Heath looked at the empty restaurant. There was no sign of Officer Jenny at all. If it were before, Heath would have thought that Officer Jenny had hidden herself again, but now Heath knew that Officer Jenny had simply disappeared.
Goodness, she actually performed the Vanishing act on Heath's face. But thinking about it carefully, Heath realized that although she had seen Officer Jenny a few times, she had never actually touched her, and the other party was usually in places where the sun did not shine.
Heath planned to ask Officer Jenny later if there was a Miss Jenny named Jenny who lived in Evergreen City. Heath suspected that the Jenny who lived there had died in Evergreen City.
Then, with mixed feelings, Heath took out a small disc from his pocket. It was a very small disc, similar to a move learning machine, except that it was blank.
[A uniquely designed move-learning device, an extremely rare item. Its use imprints a move onto a Pokémon (provided the learning is logical and reasonable). It has a chance to be obtained only when entertaining very rare guests.]
Heath was stunned by the extremely long annotation. He really didn't expect that he would have such a lucky break. According to this thing, isn't this just a self-created technique?
But what did "reasonable" mean at the end? Heath was a little confused.
The moment Heath got hold of this move, he thought of Dragon Ball, which he watched as a child. In it, Goku made his friends behind bars, in trees, and on Earth raise their hands to give him the Spirit Bomb, which was indeed very cool and powerful.
[Spirit Bomb recording failed; it does not comply with the basic rules of this world.]
Heath's lips twitched. If he could really record the Spirit Bomb, Heath felt that he could probably take Farfetch'd to kick Lance's butt and make him move the throne of the King of the Hill. If he didn't move it, he would fly up and release the Spirit Bomb.
"Does it conform to the basic rules of the world?" Heath stroked his chin. If that's the case...
[The Frozen World can be entered. Would you like to enter it?]
Hiss quickly shook his head. Although Kyurem's frozen world was awesome, Hiss didn't plan to let his Pokémon learn it. As for legendary Pokémon, he would have to entertain more of them in the future, and who knows if he could get a TM for them.
Moreover, the fact that this move is an innovative device indicates that it is an extremely rare item makes Heath feel that it is indeed a waste to use it like this.
"So what kind of move should I use?" Histo stroked his chin, lost in thought, then he remembered the Heaven and Earth Unparalleled Blade he had acquired before...
[Can I record this sword-sheathing iaido slash? Do you want to record it?]
"It's fate!" Heath slammed his fist in his hand, then clicked "agree." Immediately afterward, Heath felt the atmosphere around him suddenly become strange, as if an immense power was watching him. The next second, this feeling disappeared.
The move learning machine in Heath's hand had changed its appearance.
【Sheathed Iai Slash, a fighting move. After use, the user is in a sheathed state. Countering an enemy's attack just before it hits will avoid damage and deal damage to the enemy, increasing Attack Rank by one level (Farfetch'd)】
"I freaking... I actually succeeded!" Heath looked at the move in his hand with a mix of laughter and tears. This thing was a fighting move, which was pretty awesome, and it looked very powerful.
Moreover, it was exclusive to Farfetch'd. With that in mind, Heath gave the TM to Farfetch'd, and Farfetch'd immediately mastered this strange move.
"In a little while... Charmander, Farfetch'd, you two have a battle, let's try out our new moves." Heath glanced at her phone; it would be about ten minutes before Officer Jenny and the others returned to their dorms.
Heath planned to test how well Farfetch'd had learned his moves.
Charmander and Farfetch'd were a little confused, but they still followed Heath out to the open space outside the restaurant.
"Farfetch'd, sheathe your sword." Heath commanded Farfetch'd, who immediately took the green onion from its hand and placed it at its waist.
"Charmander, use Ember on Farfetch'd! Farfetch'd, use your next move just before Ember hits you!" Heath quickly commanded. Charmander then unleashed a burst of flame, but Farfetch'd withdrew its leek beforehand. Fortunately, Farfetch'd had Magic Protection and was unharmed.
Heath frowned. It seemed this move really was Iaijutsu; it was short and required mastering the timing of its use.
Then, Heath commanded Farfetch'd and Charmander to battle. On the fourth attempt, they finally succeeded. Farfetch'd used a Slash to fly forward, creating a trail of green shadows. Farfetch'd's momentum then intensified.
Heath stroked his chin. The use of this move was quite unique. Like Guardian, if used properly, it could withstand the damage from the move and even counterattack the enemy. It could be considered an enhanced version of Guardian, but it required a high degree of skill in timing its use.
"Take your time with the training." Heath took Farfetch'd back to the kitchen. His ambition wasn't to become a trainer. Teaching Farfetch'd the Sheath and Iaijutsu was just a sudden idea. Maybe he could create new moves in the future, but let's talk about Dragon Rising.
Well, the dream of playing Monster Hunter in the Pokémon world has been fulfilled, but it's a pity that I can't use it for myself. Heath thinks it's quite a shame.
After Heath had been busy in the kitchen for a while, the Officer Jennys came in. They looked a little tired today; after all, having to be mindful of their words and actions all day was quite annoying.
Heath awkwardly brought out the dishes. He didn't know how to explain that when he saw Officer Jenny, he had assumed she was the Inspector, but it turned out to be a ghost.
"Hey Ling, do you know anything about the list of Officer Jenny from Changqing City over the years?" Heath asked softly while serving Officer Jenny's food.
“Hmm? There are some, I’ve read the documents from Evergreen City.” Officer Jenny looked at Heath with a puzzled expression, not understanding why Heath would ask this question.
"Is... the name of Miss Officer Jenny who sacrificed her life on it?" Heath asked again, sounding a little nervous.
“No, there has never been a casualty in Evergreen City since its founding.” Officer Jenny shook her head. Heath breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed it wasn’t from Evergreen City.
So why did Officer Jenny come to Evergreen City? Heath was a little confused, but he thought it might be because ghosts could roam around.
Chapter 94 Gifts and WiFi
After dinner, Heath returned to the dormitory. Feng was already lying on the sofa watching TV. When Heath saw Feng's posture, he couldn't help but cover his face.
Every time Jun Shafeng is in her room, she becomes a completely different person. The serious and imposing Jun Shafeng during the day is gone. Now, there is a Jun Shafeng who yawns and scratches her legs from time to time, and her uniform is casually thrown on a chair to the side.
If other Officer Jennys saw this, they would probably be shocked, since Officer Jenny is usually a very serious person in public, the kind that exudes a strong sense of pressure.
Arcanine lay peacefully beside the sofa, while Officer Jenny rested her feet on Arcanine's fluffy body. Heath was a little envious; using Arcanine as a footrest was a feeling you had to experience to know—it was simply the best enjoyment.
Especially in winter, the body temperature of the Gyrocopter is relatively high, and putting your feet on it is like putting your feet on a hot water heater, which is gentle and comfortable and makes you feel sleepy.
"Sister Feng, what if someone sees you like this?" Heath sighed and put away her uniform and other belongings, throwing them into the washing machine.
Having known Officer Sally for four years, Heath had come to know this older sister who took care of her quite well. In Heath's eyes, Officer Sally was a woman who was very serious about her work but very casual about her life. Ever since she taught Heath how to do laundry, Heath had basically been the one doing those things.
"No one else can see it. Our Officer Jenny's dorm is very private." Officer Jenny yawned nonchalantly, then picked up the remote and changed the TV program.
Heath shook his head helplessly. It was that same phrase again. Every time, Jun Shafeng would use it to brush him off. Heath was already used to it. If Jun Shafeng suddenly became serious and earnest, it could only mean that the inspector was about to come and check.
After putting the clothes in the washing machine and starting the wash, Heath wiped his hands and prepared to go back to his room to tidy up his things. Then he noticed a bag hanging on the doorknob of his bedroom door.
Heath walked over with a puzzled look, opened the bag and took a look. Inside was a gift box of moderate size with a bow on it. The blue and white color scheme was quite nice.
Heath glanced back at Feng Jie, but Officer Feng didn't do anything and was still watching TV.
"Sister Feng, did you buy this for me?" Hiss opened the gift box, inside was a mobile phone. Hiss remembered that this was the latest smartphone launched by the Shiruf Company, priced at more than 5,000 Alliance Coins, which was no small amount.
Keep in mind that in Changqing City, Jun Shafeng's monthly salary is only 5,100 yuan.
"Well, weren't you planning to embark on a journey? I figured your phone was getting so old, so I got you a new one." Officer Jenny scratched her stomach nonchalantly, making Heath somewhat amused and exasperated.
However, he was still very touched. Jun Shafeng was a rather frugal person. She wore the same few sets of clothes over and over again, and the same went for her shoes. Most of the time, she wore her uniform when she went out. Jun Shafeng's phone hadn't been changed in a long time; it was still a model from several years ago.
"Thank you, Sister Feng." Heath said earnestly. He decided to give Sister Feng a gift as well. Jun Shafeng waved her hand with a look of disgust.
Heath took his phone into his bedroom and removed his SIM card.
"It's a dual SIM dual standby? But I'm currently using 3D Dragon Communication, so I don't need this dual SIM." Heath scratched his head.
The Pokémon world also has telecommunications companies, but compared to the three giants of the previous life, the Kanto League only has two giants. One of them is the Porygon Telecom that Heath uses now. The package is cheap, but the downside is that the signal is not very good. Sometimes you have to hold the phone up to get a signal.
Or when making a phone call, you might encounter something like the "hello, hello" message from a mobile phone.
However, Heath thought this was probably because his plan was the cheapest one. As for the other one, it was the more expensive but better-serviced Meow Meow Communications, whose founder was a meow...
That's impossible, of course. The reason Miaomiao Communications is called that is because the founder of Miaomiao Communications thought the gold coin on Miaomiao's head was very auspicious, so he chose Miaomiao as the name of the company.
After getting a new phone, the first thing Hiss did was turn on Wi-Fi and set it up. In the Pokémon world, a full Wi-Fi signal means Magneton, while a small Magneton means the signal is not very good, and a three-in-one Magneton means the signal is average. Hiss didn't quite understand why the phone's designers used a small Magneton to represent this.
"Farfetch'd, you know, according to legend, when a lot of Magnemite gather together, they evolve into a very unique and powerful Pokémon." Heath recalled an episode of an anime he had watched before, where a large group of Magnemite gathered together.
Some say that a new evolutionary form is about to appear, but Hiss neither confirms nor denies it. In any case, no one knows until the official confirmation.
"A leek?" Farfetch'd looked at Heath in confusion. It was working on its arm strength, while Charmander had been forced to rest by Heath. Today, Charmander's bandages had cracked a bit, and Heath was worried that Charmander's wounds would reopen.
If it breaks down, Heath thinks he'll be cursed to death by Miss Joyce.
"But those are just rumors, just like how Feebas evolves into Milotic." Heath shrugged.
In the game, Feebas can evolve by carrying Beautiful Scales and increasing its Beauty stat, but how to evolve in reality is still a problem. Because of this, there are very few Feebas trainers, and even fewer Milotic trainers.
All Hiss knew was that Mikkuri, the Coordinator of the Hoenn region, was a man who possessed Milotic.
Heath glanced out the window. He remembered that Officer Jenny had told him that the meal fee she gave him had a very nice view, and the location was in the direction of 11 o'clock outside the cafeteria. Heath had never been there before.
Heath remembered that the location should be the Evergreen City reservoir, from which domestic water and other supplies were allocated. Heath had never been there, but now he was becoming interested.
"Let's go out and see the night view tonight." Heath called his Pokémon. Staying in the dorm every day was quite boring, and Heath planned to go see what the amazing view Officer Jenny had mentioned was all about.
"I want to read a novel~ Trainer, why don't you go by yourself~" Zoroar wagged its tail and looked at Hiss expectantly, then Hiss grabbed it by the neck and dragged it out.
