I opened a restaurant in the Pokémon world.

Heath opened the pressure cooker with a puzzled look on his face and found that there was a radish and pork rib soup cooking inside. It even looked like it was done. Heath was stunned.

"Oh... does the pot come with a side of radish and pork rib soup?" Heath looked at the radish and pork rib soup in front of her with a bit of a wry smile. She then picked up a spoon and scooped a small spoonful into her small bowl. Heath slowly took a sip. The soup tasted pretty good, but Heath didn't quite understand why this radish and pork rib soup seemed to have a lot of pepper or sesame oil in it, making it a bit numbing.

The radish was cooked until very soft, and the rich meaty aroma of the ribs filled the air with every bite. Heath nodded, agreeing that the cooking was alright, but still a bit lacking.

"Well, let's just have this as a midnight snack. Snorlax will probably love it." Heath yawned. He usually doesn't eat dinner unless it's barbecue, and giving this pot of soup to Snorlax is a good choice.

Chapter 254 Sororia's Late Night

Heath happily went to bed. With the edible quartz from the Indigo League finished, the Indigo League business was considered complete. Heath planned to open for business for one day tomorrow and then start preparing to go to Pallet Town to continue his travels.

However, before heading to Pallet Town, Heath had some things to do, namely finishing up his business with the Indigo League. But actually, Heath didn't have much to do. His only regret was leaving behind the guests he had met there: Mr. Asson, Old Lady Jenny, the old man whose tastes changed with every turn of his head, and Karenia.

When Heath thought of Karenia, his expression became somewhat strange. This little girl was very clever. Heath always felt that the deaths of the two victims were related to Karenia, but Heath had no evidence. In fact, Officer Jenny couldn't find any evidence either. Everything was done flawlessly, and the things those scumbag parents did were also extremely hateful.

But Officer Jenny needs to find out the truth. Although all the evidence points to an accidental fire caused by aging circuitry, Officer Jenny still feels that something is not right.

"Time to sleep, Zoroya." Hiss yawned. Zoroya was playing a game with great excitement. Hiss glanced at it curiously. The game was called "Elden's Soul II," and just looking at it made Hiss want to complain.

"No, I only have time to play games at night." Soloa looked at Heath with a pitiful expression, trying to increase her gaming time.

"Then I'll deduct your salary." Heath glared at Zoroya. This little guy loved to sleep in whenever he stayed up late. Heath felt like he was getting a lot of experience waking Zoroya up every time. Heath thought he could probably write a game called "Wake Up Zoroya," where Zoroya would have over a hundred ways to avoid getting up, and the player's job would be to wake Zoroya up.

Zorua followed Heath to the bedroom, looking aggrieved. Farfetch'd was already asleep in its little bed. Farfetch'd's biological clock was very similar to Heath's. As for Charmeleon, Charmeleon liked to sleep at the foot of Heath's bed, and Heath didn't mind. After all, that way, Heath's feet would be warm. Charmeleon was quite good at sensing temperature.

After turning off the lights, Heath quickly fell asleep. A while later, a figure stealthily jumped off the bed, the sound waking Charmeleon. It opened its eyes and saw Zorua furtively tiptoeing, slowly opening the bedroom door, and then sneaking out. A smile flashed in Charmeleon's eyes. It shook its head, stretched comfortably, and then fell soundly asleep. It had to get up early to exercise tomorrow.

"Seriously, it's such a nice night, wouldn't it be a waste not to play games?" Zoroya skillfully turned on the TV and the power strip, then expertly plugged in the USB drive for his Bluetooth headphones, put on the headphones, and began his enjoyable evening gaming journey.

Zorua had done a test. The big guy slept very soundly at night. From 11 p.m. to 2:30 a.m., the big guy would snore, and then from 2:30 a.m. until he woke up in the morning, the big guy's snoring would stop. Heath, on the other hand, would sleep until he naturally woke up. So Zorua planned to play around with it today...

Just once!

Zorua glanced at the time; it was 10:30 PM. Zorua planned to play until midnight and then go to bed on time to avoid being dragged out of bed by his trainer the next day.

……

"Yawn... I'm so sleepy..." Zoroa lifted his drooping eyelids and glanced at the time on the Fifth Princess's screen. Hmm, very good, it's already 3:30 in the morning.

Zorua flicked its tail. Zorua had originally agreed to play until midnight, but after midnight, it thought, "I'll play until 12:30 and then go to sleep!" So it played until 12:30, then decided to play until 1:30 a.m., and it has been playing like this ever since.

Zorua reluctantly turned off the game console and TV, putting everything back in its place. She knew she needed to sleep, otherwise she would be punished by her trainer again tomorrow morning. But three hours of sleep should be enough, right? It should be, right?

Just as Zoroya turned around, intending to sneak back to his bedroom, the light suddenly flickered. Zoroya stared blankly at the light bulb above his head; it was still off as usual, so why did it flicker just now?

Zoroah felt a little confused. He continued walking and then noticed that the light had come on again. Zoroah stared blankly at the light switch. There was no one there, and no trainer had come out. The light flashed briefly and then quickly went out again, leaving Zoroah bewildered.

"That's strange." Soraya didn't pay much attention to it, but as he walked, he suddenly noticed that he heard the sound of a door opening behind him.

Soraya turned around blankly, and then saw the toilet door slowly open. It was pitch black inside. Soraya had good night vision, and she could see that there was no one in the toilet, but a strange sense of fear had already gripped her. She swallowed hard and remembered the horror game she had started playing at one o'clock in the morning.

'Phew...it was all an illusion...Big Guy is still here, and I'm still a Pokémon!' Zoroia cheered herself up. Then she glanced in the direction where Big Guy was sleeping. Seeing the familiar Big Guy, Zoroia breathed a sigh of relief and turned her head away.

But Zoroia paused for a moment. She quickly turned her head to look at the toilet. In that instant, Zoroia seemed to see a dark figure standing there out of the corner of her eye. This made Zoroia think of the horror game she had just played.

"An illusion...it's all an illusion!" Zoroya swallowed hard. To make sure he wasn't seeing things, Zoroya slowly walked towards the open toilet door. But after a few steps, Zoroya stopped. What if it really was...?

Zorua shook his head violently, then immediately turned around, intending to run back to the bedroom, crawl into his trainer's warm bed, and hug his trainer's legs.

But in that instant when he turned his head, Zoroya was horrified to find that the black figure was approaching again; it had come out of the toilet!

Soraya panicked completely. She rushed to the bedroom door and jumped up to open it, but the next second, she found the dark figure crouching beside her...

Chapter 255 Unruly Children and Unruly Parents

Heath glared at Zoroya, annoyed. This little rascal had secretly gotten up to play video games at night! This made Heath very angry. If it weren't for his stomachache waking him up, Heath wouldn't have noticed when Zoroya had sneaked out of the bedroom.

Moreover, having a stomachache at night that wakes you from a sweet dream is incredibly frustrating, and Heath isn't in a good mood right now.

"What are you yelling about? Didn't you see that you woke up Snorlax?" Hiss looked at Zoroa with a stern face. Snorlax sat up with a blank look on its face and stared blankly for a long time. Its squinty eyes made it impossible to tell whether it was awake or not. Hiss could only assume that Snorlax was awake.

However, Snorlax was confused for a moment before continuing to sleep. Hiss thought Snorlax's sleep quality was really good.

"I...I was just scared while playing a horror game..." Zoroia's face turned red. When she first noticed the dark figure next to her, Zoroia's entire Pokémon was in trouble. She screamed in terror, and then she saw the light come on, and Heath was squatting next to her with a dark face, watching her open the door.

Soroya's face turned red instantly, as if he were about to die.

Heath almost laughed. Actually, he was the one who caused the flashing lights and the opening of the bathroom door. His purpose was very simple.

[You've triggered a temporary quest: Kids who stay up all night are probably ruined; a good beating will fix it!]

[Kids who stay up late are mostly ruined; a good beating will fix it: By frightening or threatening Zoroya, you will be forced to develop a habit of sleeping well every day and not staying up late, and you will receive a special reward.]

Yes, when Heath woke up with a stomachache at night, she found that she had triggered a mission. When she secretly opened the bedroom door and saw Zoroya having a great time, Heath had already figured out her tactics. Threatening with force was a bad idea, but intimidation was a better approach. After all, Heath had watched quite a few horror movies. As long as she disguised herself well enough, Zoroya could be trained to be a good kid.

"Huh? What do you mean, turn off the lights? I didn't know. I just came out." To make the performance more convincing, Heath pretended to be clueless, and it worked quite well. Zoroark let out a groan and burrowed into the bedroom. It seemed that Zoroark wouldn't dare to stay up late playing games for a while. Actually, Heath didn't have any problem with Zoroark staying up late or not. After all, Pokémon's bodies are different from humans'. Heath remembered that Mr. Kod could go for six months without sleeping or resting, and his body was still in great shape. It can be said that the constitution of humans and Pokémon is just different.

In a fit of extreme rage, Superpower could kill a tiger with a single slide tackle, while Heath, in a fit of extreme rage, could probably give a tiger a good meal with a single slide tackle. That's the difference.

However, if it were to be faced with the muscular tiger, Heath felt that he could still subdue it with a single Super Ball in a state of extreme rage.

[You've concluded that most kids who stay up all night are ruined and a good beating will fix them! You've obtained the blame machine from the irresponsible parents.]

Heath paused for a moment, wondering what this strange gadget was. Heath pulled the unexpectedly extra thing out of his pocket, a tiny megaphone that looked very small.

[The Parent's Blame Game (Destroyable after one use): After use, any item or concept can be designated as the target of parents' blaming. "My child's poor academic performance is always due to playing on their phone! All games and anime should be taken down!"]

Heath was stunned for a moment. In a sense, this thing really was a divine artifact, or even an absolute divine artifact. After all, its uses were so terrifying that it could even designate a concept as the target of accusation, which was extremely powerful. If used well, it could be very effective.

"But this thing is actually quite interesting. Who knows when it might come in handy in the future? After all, what's more terrifying than bratty kids is bratty parents." Heath yawned, then put the megaphone away, and went to the bathroom clutching his stomach. He was going to sleep after he finished using the bathroom!

……

The next morning, Heath yawned and got out of bed. He felt he hadn't slept well the night before because he had to get up to use the bathroom due to a stomachache. It has to be said that when you're sleeping soundly, only a stomachache can force you to get out of your warm bed.

"Zoroa, time to get up." Heath yawned, and Farfetch'd yawned too, then climbed out of his little bed.

"Sleepy..." Zorua closed his eyes wearily, the aftereffects of staying up all night last night were showing.

"If you don't get up, I'll have to leave you here all by yourself." Heath said with a chuckle. Sure enough, upon hearing Heath's words, Zoroark jumped out of bed. Zoroark still remembered what happened that night; it had really scared the Pokémon!

Seeing that Zoroah had become much more alert, Heath stroked his chin and fell into deep thought. He was considering whether he should intensify Zoroah's fear in the future, so that Zoroah wouldn't be able to stay in bed in the morning. However, he needed to change the way he scared him, otherwise it would be easy for Zoroah to see through his act.

With this in mind, Heath led Zorua and Farfetch'd out of the bedroom and into the living room, where Charmeleon was working out its back muscles. Heath gasped; Charmeleon's muscles were becoming increasingly defined, signifying its immense physical strength.

"Charmeleon, call Snorlax, it's time for us to brush our teeth." Heath led Zoroark into the bathroom and saw Mew brushing its teeth. Mew's expression was very calm when it saw Heath. It even glanced at him and then continued brushing its teeth, which surprised Heath. What happened to this little guy's strong sense of vigilance? How did it calm down so quickly?

However, Heath ignored Dream and started her daily routine of washing up. Sheath still needed to buy some ingredients and replenish some seasonings. Sheath was going to Pallet Town, which was definitely smaller than the Indigo League, so she needed to prepare many things in advance. Heath yawned and mentally planned what she needed to buy.

"Furniture... seems to need to be replenished. It's not good for Snorlax to always sleep on the floor, and it looks a bit too spacious." Heath spat out the toothpaste and added to himself, "Furniture can be bought now. Heath has made some money recently, so he can splurge a little."

Chapter 256 Fierce Sky Sitting

"I feel like I've forgotten something." Heath walked into the cockpit with a puzzled look, set the autopilot position for the day, and then stroked his chin, lost in thought.

After thinking for a while, Heath suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to look at the green meteor that looked like Rayquaza yesterday!

Thinking of this, Heath's expression became somewhat complicated. Heath had originally planned to use the ingredient identification device to check on Rayquaza yesterday, but he had forgotten about it after entertaining a few guests. For a moment, Heath felt a bit of a headache.

"Tsk, this is Rayquaza, which only flies over once every seventy-odd days. How could I forget?" Heath felt a deep sense of regret. The rewards for entertaining legendary Pokémon are usually quite good. If Heath had entertained Rayquaza, he felt he would have received some good things as well.

However, there's not much that can be done right now. Rayquaza is a Pokémon that flies in the ozone layer of the Indigo League region. If you miss this chance, who knows when you'll be able to see Rayquaza fly over the Indigo League again.

Moreover, compared to that problem, Heath felt there was another issue that deserved his attention, and that was the matter of dreams...

Thinking of this, Heath couldn't help but look back, and then saw Mew trying to open Heath's kimchi jar, but to no avail. Heath's kimchi jar was as solid as a rock, and no matter how much superpower Mew used to wrap the kimchi jar, it couldn't be opened, which made Heath feel quite relieved.

If Dream opens this kimchi jar, Heath thinks his kimchi might be ruined. It seems that the cheat code still takes good care of his kitchen. Although it's unclear why it doesn't take care of his lounge, taking care of the kitchen is enough.

If we compare Dream to a naughty child, then the lounge is like the living room at home, where Dream can do whatever it wants. But the kitchen is like Heath's bedroom. Dream's current behavior is like a naughty child coming home for the New Year, trying to open the cabinet full of figurines and models in Heath's bedroom. Heath is getting angry.

"But this little guy is quite self-disciplined, and he's getting bolder and bolder." Heath looked at Dream floating in the air playing with his kimchi jar with an indifferent expression, and felt a bit complicated.

Farfetch'd, that silly goose! Mew isn't even its partner, but Farfetch'd stubbornly stayed next to Mew and chatted enthusiastically with it. Whether Mew responded or not is unknown, since Mew's cry is different, and Mew is a powerful Pokémon that can use psychic powers to communicate with other Pokémon.

However, seeing Dream playing with her kimchi jar, Heath couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her. The cost of kimchi was not high, but the problem was that it was troublesome to make. Kimchi needed to be pickled for a long time to make it delicious, and now the kimchi jar was flying around in front of Dream.

Just as Heath was contemplating life, he noticed a green shooting star flying across the sky. Heath paused for a moment, then subconsciously took out his food identification device and glanced at the green shooting star.

Rayquaza is edible and non-toxic. Due to its prolonged flight, Rayquaza has very firm muscles and tender, delicious meat, suitable for any cooking method. However, Rayquaza's skin is rough and hard, and ordinary knives cannot cut through it. It is recommended to use a kitchen knife made from extraterrestrial meteorite.

Sure enough, the familiar words appeared on the food identification device again. However, Heath was not paying much attention to the words at the moment. Instead, he was curiously looking at the green meteor above his head. The next second, Heath was surprised to find that the green meteor paused for a moment and then fell rapidly at an astonishing speed, rushing down towards Heath. Heath swallowed hard. Was Rayquaza angry and planning to kill him?

Mew sensed something too. It warily raised its head and looked up at the sky above the food truck, where Rayquaza was approaching at an incredible speed. How far is the ozone layer from the ground? Heath didn't know the answer, since he had basically forgotten everything he learned after graduation. But Heath did know how long it took Rayquaza to fly down: two seconds.

What can you do in two seconds? Heath wasn't quite sure. If you were to compare it to an anime, two seconds would be enough for cherry blossoms to fall ten centimeters. If you were to compare it to work, two seconds would be the time it takes for a worker to blink once while slacking off. And if you were to compare it to an online flash sale, two seconds would be enough for countless people to frantically tap their screens, trying to snag their desired product.

But within two seconds, Heath saw Rayquaza's face, which was filled with anger. Just as Heath suspected that Rayquaza was about to crash into the food cart, Rayquaza suddenly transformed into a green-haired mature woman the instant she approached the cart. She looked at Heath with hostility and stood in front of Heath's food cart.

Heath swallowed hard. This was the first divine beast to transform into human form without any hesitation in front of him, and it was a very beautiful mature woman with a great figure. Heath suspected that her thighs were attached to her chest.

This reminded Heath of a picture from her past life.

"You were just looking at me? Did you want to eat me?" Liekongzuo said in an unfriendly tone. Her voice was cold and had the feel of an ice queen. However, looking at Liekongzuo's OL outfit and her legs in black stockings, Heath thought that if someone had a peculiar taste, they would probably shout "Please step on me" and then devoutly kneel down in front of Liekongzuo.

"Ahem... I just saw a green shooting star and thought it might be something strange... so I took a look." Heath quickly found an excuse, while Mew flew out of the food cart, curiously examining Rayquaza.

Rayquaza's originally cold expression softened upon seeing the dream.

"That's me. Next time you see a green meteor, don't look at me with that weird thing of yours, or I won't mind giving you a Dragon God Dive." Rayquaza warned Heath with an unfriendly gaze. Heath's lips twitched. Goodness, could you take back those four words, Dragon God Dive? Heath wouldn't mind if you did.

"Ahem... I'm so sorry. To express my apology, is there anything you'd like to eat?" Heath coughed, then smiled and asked Rayquaza.

Chapter 257 Deoxys's Little Shop

This was Seath's main purpose. Watching the meteor shower was all a charade. The only thing Seath was interested in was hosting Rayquaza. And it has to be said that Rayquaza looked beautiful, with an impeccable human form, though perhaps a little too beautiful, and its physique was just too outrageous. Seath wondered what these legendary Pokémon used as a reference standard when they transformed into human form.

"Oh? I don't think you could make what I eat." Rayquaza scoffed. Unlike other divine beasts, Rayquaza ate something different. It ate stones, or more precisely, all kinds of meteorites. Some of these meteorites were soft, and some were hard. Rayquaza preferred the hard, black meteorites, which contained iron and had a crunchy, meteorite-like taste that Rayquaza really liked.

However, it might take a very long time to find even one of those meteorites, so Rayquaza had to place an order with Deoxys, who runs a courier service and delivers meteor showers in space, to buy some meteorites.

Deoxys is a good friend of Rayquaza. After all, Deoxys' business is very simple: selling various meteorites from space and occasionally causing meteor showers in certain areas. If a human purchases its service on the online marketplace, a beautiful meteor shower can be set off in a designated area at a designated time. However, because the price is too high, Deoxys' business has not developed very well.

For this reason, Deoxys complained to Rayquaza that if Rayquaza didn't frequently order meteorites from it, it would be very difficult for Deoxys to open a business.

However, Deoxys also mentioned that some idiots actually try to order dangerous Pokémon viruses from it, supposedly wanting to infect their Pokémon with the virus to boost their battle power. However, this is not allowed, and it should be noted that Deoxys does not have the ability to create such Pokémon viruses. However, it would not mind killing that idiot with a meteor.

Heath scratched his head. He did have some knowledge of Rayquaza, after all, Rayquaza was a very famous legendary Pokémon in the Ruby and Sapphire series, which was also one of Heath's favorite series. If nothing unexpected happened, Rayquaza should eat meteorites, and Heath admitted that he didn't actually have any meteorites.

But Heath actually had his own method, which was Hoopa's gold ring.
