Chapter 18: Rock-Paper-Scissors: From Novice to Master
After the battle, the golden-haired beautiful girl took the little girl away, and Heath had no intention of going up to ask them. After all, the scene yesterday did not look like something a normal person could do.
Unless when the little girl appeared yesterday, a purple potato spirit just happened to snap his fingers and turned the little girl into ashes, otherwise that scene could only have been done by a Pokémon.
Then Heath watched several more battles on the battlefield, which helped him gain some battle experience. Although most of them were just fights between noobs, there were still some exciting battles.
What attracted Heath's attention most was the battle between two young trainers, Charizard versus Blastoise. As a result, Charizard defeated Blastoise by reversed its attributes and won the battle. Heath looked at the Charizard trainer curiously.
It’s just an unfamiliar face on the street, and he’s probably not an important character in the plot.
"This really is a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers." Heath stretched, thanked the security guard for his care, and then pushed his stall cart out of the arena.
It was almost time to get off work, and Heath planned to set up a stall as usual to earn the last money of the day, and then go back to the dormitory to rest.
Although Heath has already thought about his future path, if he wants to go to other cities, he still has to save some money. What's more, Heath really feels a little reluctant to say goodbye to Sister Feng.
"Heath, an egg... Hmm? Have you launched any new dishes? Do you have any more of this braised pork?" It was a pleasant voice, and Heath knew who was coming without even looking up.
" Ms. , of course there is. Would you like one?" Heath looked at the woman in front of him with a smile. The other party was a woman who looked very elegant and beautiful.
But Heath felt that Ms. Lori should be in her forties, but it was impossible to tell just by looking at her appearance. Ms. Lori looked like a young and beautiful girl of 23 years old.
Heath once tried to ask Ms. Lori her age, and then received a death stare. Ms. Lori's beautiful eyes made Heath start to sweat even on a hot day. Then Ms. Lori said a famous saying.
"Hey, I'm always 18 years old~" This sentence sounded familiar to Heath. He remembered that there was an old lady who was thousands of years old who was also like this...
Well, since time travel has happened, Heath thought it would be better for him not to say anything.
Otherwise, who knows what that young and beautiful girl who is always eighteen years old will do.
"Of course I do. My daughter finally came home today, and I'm very happy. So please give me two more to take away." Ms. Lori smiled happily. She looked very beautiful when she smiled. Her eyes were like a starry sky , so captivating.
However, Heath had no opinion about Ms. Lori. He knew very well that this very beautiful Ms. Lori was a strong person.
Ms. Lori, the strongest investigator in the Quartz League, once defeated a Pokémon hunter team of dozens of people with her six Pokémon. From that day on, Ms. Lori became famous in the Kanto region.
Many people believe that the fact that Evergreen City has the lowest crime rate in the entire Kanto region is closely related to the fact that Ms. Lori settled here, although Heath thinks it is because of Sakaki.
"Okay, wait a moment." Heath nodded. Heath had heard from Ms. Loli's daughter that she was a very powerful electric-type Pokémon expert. She was in her twenties and seemed to be planning to challenge Ma Zhishi and become the leader of an electric-type gym.
However, Heath is not very optimistic about Ms. Loli's daughter. Didn't he see that after Xiaozhi and Red embarked on their journey in the later period, the leader of the Electric Gym was still Ma Zhishi?
Although he was not optimistic, Heath did not say anything more, so he smiled and prepared the braised pork rice that Ms. Lori needed, and then handed it to her along with two packaging boxes. Ms. Lori did not stretch out her hand, but a purple-black hand stretched out from behind her and took the box.
Heath took the money from this hand as if nothing had happened, and then played a game of rock-paper-scissors with it, and defeated this hand again.
"Ghost!" Then a Gengar came out from behind Ms. Loli angrily, with an indignant look on its face.
"Don't blame me." Heath shrugged. There was a Gengar behind Ms. Loli, and this Gengar particularly liked to play the game of rock-paper-scissors with him.
Although Gengar often loses, this does not prevent Gengar from challenging Heath every time he sees him.
"Including this time, the score between you and me, Gengar, is one hundred and twenty-seven to three hundred and forty-five." Heath took out a small notebook and wrote down the numbers with a smile.
Gengar floated out with a look of dissatisfaction, intending to play rock-paper-scissors with Heath again, but before it floated out, it noticed Ms. Loli's "kind" smile.
Gengar shrank back, mumbling, looking as aggrieved as a 40-kilogram fat man.
"Heath, you're so silly. Can't you just give Gengar some ground? Last time when this guy was on a mission, he complained to me that he always lost to you." Ms. Loli pinched her eyebrows helplessly.
Ms. Loli now regrets very much. She regrets why she agreed to let Heath and Gengar play rock-paper-scissors. Now Gengar is secretly studying the winning method of rock-paper-scissors every day.
Well, there’s a “Beginner’s Guide to Rock, Paper, Scissors”, and there’s also a “Advanced Guide to Rock, Paper, Scissors” and “Rock, Paper, Scissors: How to Become a Master”, all handwritten little books.
But just for these three small notebooks, Gengar paid out a full three thousand Alliance Coins, and he did it willingly.
This made Ms. Loli very dissatisfied, but seeing Gengar's "I made a profit" expression, Ms. Loli didn't know what to say.
And no matter how Ms. Lori looked at it, she felt that the handwriting on the three Rock-Paper-Scissors guides and the handwriting of Heath could not be said to be very similar, but could only be said to be exactly the same.
"Hehe, I just swung it casually... But this technique of winning unintentionally is something I saw in a book called "Rock, Paper, Scissors: The Master's Secret." Heath said seriously, and Gengar instantly appeared from behind Ms. Loli.
A pair of big eyes looked at Heath with longing.
Ms. Lori took a deep breath, this little profiteer!
If she didn't know that Gengar was deceived willingly and that Seath made compensation later, Ms. Loli swore that she would thoroughly search Seath to find out how much he had fleeced from her Gengar!
