Chapter 310: Lazy Zhenxin Town
After getting Jun Shameng's permission, Heath happily drove his food truck out to find a location for today's business. Generally speaking, the best location for a stall in a small town is near a gym, but there is no gym in Pallet Town, so Heath had to choose another route.
Heath finally chose a simple Pokémon Center. Unlike the one in the game, there is a Pokémon Center in the real world's Pallet Town, and even a Miss Joy. Heath did not go in to see it, but Miss Joy saw Heath when she came out to take out the trash.
Surprised Miss Joy also chatted with Heath for a few words, and Heath also chatted with Miss Joy with a smile and got a lot of information.
For example, no one has moved into Pallet Town for a long time, and the last person who moved in was a girl named Chihong.
"Girl?" Heath was completely stunned. He really didn't expect that Chihong was actually a girl. But if it was a girl, then it proved that this world should not be the world of the game. After all, the world of the game would not be like this at all, and it would not even be the world in the anime special. The Chihong in that world was a boy, a powerful and taciturn boy.
"Yes, a girl. Although she looks a bit boyish, she is actually a girl." Miss Joy was eating the pancakes made by Heath and said with a smile.
There are not many patients or Pokémon in Miss Joy's Pokémon Center. Most of the trainers in Pallet Town are elderly, and except for the monthly physical examinations, no one comes here at other times.
The young trainers have already embarked on the journey with their Pokémon . They often choose to go to Viridian City to treat their Pokémon. There are very few outside trainers, and most of the time they come to see Professor Oak, so Miss Joy is very free.
Joey always felt like he came to Pallet Town to retire. Even though he was still very young, it was no wonder that many people in the family said that Pallet Town was a peaceful town.
"I heard from Xiaozhi before that a neighbor moved in near their house, but I didn't expect it to be a girl." Heath smiled. It might be a coincidence of names, but this is normal. Heath encountered such a situation when he was doing business in the Quartz Alliance before.
At that time, a middle-aged uncle came to buy braised chicken with rice. When buying the braised chicken with rice, Heath found out that the uncle was also called Xiaozhi. It can only be said that the phenomenon of duplicate names in the Pokémon world is quite serious. After all, the names given by people in this place are really too monotonous.
"Ash, Ash is a very good kid. I think he will become an excellent trainer." After eating a pancake, Joy and Heath became more familiar with each other. Miss Joy's Pokémon Center is where Heath plans to use as his main base in Pallet Town in the future, so he still needs to build a good relationship.
"I think so too." Heath nodded with a smile. Satoshi's growth was like a complete story, from being young and naive to becoming stronger and stronger. Unfortunately, there seemed to be some problems with the time span in the anime. Satoshi traveled to so many regions and participated in so many events, but his age did not change at all. This made Heath doubt whether Satoshi was the same as Conan.
After all, Conan has spent a long time, but he is still an elementary school student. It seems that a year will never end, which is really amazing.
"Ms. Joy, do you know what special ingredients there are in Pallet Town?" Heath did not forget his mission and asked curiously.
We arrived too late today, and the vegetable market in Pallet Town has already closed. This small place is different from Evergreen City. Even now, the vegetable market in Evergreen City is still open, but it is not the same in Pallet Town. This place seems to close after a certain time. Heath noticed when he drove in just now that the business hours marked on some stores in Pallet Town are very short.
There was a restaurant that was open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., while a small store selling daily necessities was open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and then closed, which made Heath laugh and cry.
I have to say that the pace of life in Pallet Town is very slow. Heath used to think that the pace of life in Evergreen City was already very slow, but after coming to Pallet Town, he found that the pace of life in this place is even slower, so slow that it is a little unbelievable.
"Eh? A special ingredient? That must be our Pallet Town mushrooms~" Miss Joy was stunned for a moment, then said with confidence. Heath nodded. Fortunately it was mushrooms, not the Super Pallet Town Rookies, otherwise Heath would have doubted what his golden finger was trying to do.
"Can I buy it?" Heath was a little nervous. The specialty food of Evergreen City is the Evergreen Fruit. It is said that one can gain the power of Evergreen after eating it, but it is difficult to find. The specialty stone of the Quartz Alliance is edible quartz, which is easy to buy, but the method of making it is almost lost.
Heath was very worried that the same situation would happen in Pallet Town.
"Of course you can. It's summer now, so you can buy it easily. But you can only buy it at the ghost market at night. If you are interested, you can go to the vegetable market after 11 o'clock in the evening." Miss Joy said with a smile, and Heath blinked.
He wondered if he had heard it wrongly. What did he hear? Ghost Market?
Although the name sounds impressive, it is actually just a night market, so Heath still plans to go to that ghost market at night to buy the ingredients he needs.
After saying goodbye to Miss Joy who was going back to the Pokémon Center to read, Heath returned to his food truck. Because Pallet Town was too small, Heath did not ask Farfetch'n'Fish to make crab roe soup dumplings today.
"The sun in Pallet Town is a bit strong...Snorlax!" Heath looked at the sunshine outside the food truck. Hot weather was a good thing, at least for Heath. Heath planned to launch shaved ice and should be able to make some money.
"Eh? Brother Heath?" A familiar voice came. Heath looked up and saw Xiaozhi, who was not wearing the hat yet, standing in front of Heath's food truck with a shocked look on his face. Heath smiled. He was still thinking about whether he should go look for Xiaozhi, but he didn't expect to meet him so soon.
"Good afternoon, Xiaozhi, would you like something to eat?" Heath asked with a smile, and the surprise on Xiaozhi's face turned into joy.
