Chapter 100: A cute and charming villain
Looking at the confused Musashi, Heath quickly began to change the subject. He sincerely felt that the current Musashi looked better, but as for the Musashi behind, Heath was really curious about how the other's hair was styled into that shape.
"Ms. Musashi, may I ask what you would like to eat?" Heath looked at Musashi and asked with a smile. The last time he entertained Musashi was a few months ago.
"Of course it's the same as usual . I'll report back to the company first and come back to eat later~" Musashi looked greedy. Heath nodded in understanding and watched Musashi leave on his bicycle.
Musashi's usual behavior is actually eating dumplings. This may have something to do with the question Musashi asked him when Heath first entertained him that day.
"Boss, is there any food that I can eat and go home?" This is what Musashi asked at the time. Heath was still a young boy at that time and he never thought that Musashi would actually ask him this question.
"Well...we have a saying over there that you have to eat dumplings when you go home." This was Heath's answer, and from that day on, Musashi would often order dumplings from Heath.
Heath had never asked about Musashi's life experience, and although he knew this pair of cute and charming villains in his previous life, Heath did not remember the life experiences of Musashi and Kojiro. He only remembered that Kojiro seemed to be a rich man, while Musashi was rather miserable.
But this did not prevent Heath from entertaining his guests.
Dumplings are one of the staple foods in Chinese cuisine. Of course, some areas also eat dumplings as a dish, but Heath thinks that dumplings are a staple food in themselves. Sometimes when you are hungry at night but are too lazy to cook, you can just boil the frozen dumplings and eat them.
They also give you a strong sense of fullness. Basically, if you eat dumplings as a main meal, you won’t feel hungry afterwards. Of course, that’s a different story if you’re a big eater.
But in the world of Pokémon, dumplings are a dish, usually made into fried dumplings. Although Seath also likes fried dumplings, he still prefers boiled dumplings, so when Seath made dumplings for Musashi, he made them in the same way as boiled dumplings.
Heath made a very ordinary leek and pork filling. After wrapping it quickly, he put it aside. Heath would put it in the pot only when Musashi arrived, but the water could be boiled in advance.
Soon, Heath saw Musashi. Heath put the dumplings into boiling hot water and stirred them constantly with a spoon to prevent the dumplings from sticking together. It would be troublesome if they stuck together, and the taste would also be affected.
"Ms. Musashi, how long do you plan to stay in Evergreen City this time?" Heath asked Musashi. Musashi often went out and rarely stayed in Evergreen City.
"I don't know. It depends on how the company arranges it..." Musashi yawned lazily and lay on the edge of the Heath dining car.
"Ms. Musashi is often on business trips, and I seldom see you." Heath covered the pot, then turned around and began to prepare a dipping sauce for Musashi to eat dumplings.
However, after Musashi formed a team with Kojiro and Meowth, and then met the Pokémon master who was destined to wear a hat and never grow up, Heath felt that Musashi now had a clear direction. After all, Musashi had been following Satoshi all the way to various regions.
Even though Team Rocket was destroyed, I don’t know why the trio was so persistent in following Xiaozhi. This is simply true love.
"I don't want to go on a business trip either. To be honest, I wanted to be a nurse before. I even studied at the Jellyfish Nursing School!" Musashi rested his chin on one hand, looking at the white dumplings in Heath's pot, his eyes a little dull .
Heath put the prepared dipping sauce into a small box, then opened the lid of the pot and continued to cook the dumplings. He had heard Musashi talk about this many times.
Musashi doesn't seem to mind others knowing about her past, and she laughs about the embarrassing things she experienced while studying at Chanel's Nursing School, such as how every time Chanel sang to comfort an injured Pokémon, Musashi would be hypnotized by Chanel.
It is for this reason that Musashi did not become a Pokémon nurse, but instead came to Team Rocket, which is when he settled down.
"Ms. Musashi, these are your dumplings. We have to go back to the south during this period. Miss Musashi, please go home quickly, otherwise your family will be in trouble." Heath smiled and put the dumplings in a box and handed it to Musashi.
Musashi held the box in her hand and looked at the white dumplings in front of her. There was some inexplicable sadness and nostalgia in her eyes.
"Sure enough, I must eat the dumplings you made, Heath, when I come back. I feel that my life is complete only then~" Musashi paid the bill with a smile, then rode away happily on his bike.
[You entertained Musashi, and you obtained the snow that could fill your stomach in your memory]
Heath was stunned for a moment. After entertaining Musashi, he actually gave him something he had never heard of? This surprised Heath a little. He thought he might give him candy or something else, but he didn't expect that he would give him snow.
Heath touched his pocket and found that he didn't have the prop. Heath opened the cabinet and took a look, but still didn't have it. After Heath opened the refrigerator, he saw the reward item.
A bottle of snow was crashed into a large glass bottle. It was full but looked no different from ordinary snow.
[The snow that can fill your stomach in memory: it can be used to make any kind of dish and perfectly reproduce the best taste. You won’t feel full after eating it (when you are hungry, a dish made of snow is also a comfort)]
Heath stared blankly at the bottle in front of him. He always felt that this bottle of snow might have some connection with Musashi, but Heath couldn't tell what the connection was.
"A perfect replica of the best taste? If it's as I thought, that's amazing." Heath looked at the bottle in front of him. The bottle was not very big, and he didn't know how many times the snow in it could be used.
There are some dishes that cannot be tasted at their best, such as China's Goubuli steamed buns. It is rumored that Goubuli steamed buns are so delicious that they can conquer Cixi's picky taste buds, but what did the best Goubuli steamed buns taste like in the past?
Until now, no one has the answer to this question, but now Heath finds that he seems to have an opportunity, a chance to try it, taste the flavor, and perhaps be able to reproduce these lost dishes.
"It's really... a little sad, but also very amazing thing." Heath closed the refrigerator door. He didn't plan to use this thing for the time being. He would try it when he was ready.
