Chapter 447: The Ghost Market in Deep Gray City
Heath returned to his dining car in silence. He couldn't help but take a look at the set of tables and chairs. Nidoran had been hiding in that position before, but what he thought was a problem of abandonment turned out to be a matter of life and death. This made Heath completely unprepared, and it all happened. Nidoran, who had been so fierce before, took a sharp turn for the worse after hypnosis, and died in the hands of Pokémon Killer Pokémon Fever.
"But why did that guy throw Nidoran to me? Did he think I could help send Nidoran to the hospital?" Heath was a little confused. Generally speaking, there are two places with the most abandoned Pokémon. One is natural areas such as forests, and the other is the Pokémon Center. The Pokémon League actually has some measures of its own, or means of protection, for these things.
However, after the Alliance implemented the [Medical Assistance for Abandoned Pokémon] for a period of time, it abandoned this bill. Because of the introduction of this bill, more abandoned Pokémon appeared at the door of the Pokémon Center, which made Miss Joy overwhelmed, and the Alliance's finances were completely unable to bear it. The Alliance had many places to spend money, so this policy was cancelled.
But it was the first time Heath saw someone abandon a Pokémon in a dining car.
"Trainer, you seem to be in a bad mood." Zoroark walked in front of Heath and looked at him with concern.
"It's okay." Heath scratched his head. There was no surveillance in his dining car, and there were a lot of people in the afternoon. Heath didn't know how to find the trainer of Nidoran. If he could find him, Heath would definitely give him a hard punch to let him know what an iron fist is.
Thinking of this, Heath took out his magical conch, but after using it, Heath did not have the lucky trigger probability. He still didn't know who abandoned Nidoran, but Heath also knew that even if he could find these people who abandoned Pokémon every day, Heath could not do anything to them. The Alliance's method for these people can only be persuasion and moral condemnation, but is abandoning Pokémon illegal? Of course it is not illegal.
Just like it was not illegal to abandon your pet in the previous life, the treatment of Pokémon in this world is similar. All the Alliance can do is try to ensure the safety of abandoned Pokémon and provide some basic release.
"It's so hard to get over it." Heath sighed. He didn't plan to continue to dwell on it, but it was obviously not something he could completely ignore so quickly. Heath knew that he would definitely not be in a good mood today, so after Heath drove the food truck back, he chose to go out and talk to Sister Feng to relieve his depressed mood.
Heath already knew from Jun Shajing where Sister Feng and the others lived, so he found Sister Feng very quickly. However, Heath was stunned when he entered because Jun Shajing was typing attentively, apparently writing a report.
"Heath, Feng is writing a report now, you sit here first." Sister Ling came out wiping her wet hair, then poured Heath a glass of lemonade with a smile. As for Jun Shaling, Heath didn't see her, but from the sound of water in the bathroom, Heath knew where Jun Shaling was.
Heath was a little embarrassed. If it was Sister Feng, Heath would not care at all. After all, Heath was responsible for hygiene and other things in the past. But when it came to Jun Shaling, Heath was really embarrassed.
So Heath still found an excuse to slip away, but because of this incident, Heath's mood calmed down a little. He walked in the Deep Gray City at night. The city was still quite lively at night, but only in some commercial areas or barbecue places. The residential areas were very quiet.
"Huh..." Heath took a deep breath, and before he knew it, he walked to the Pokémon Center again, and then walked in as if possessed.
The Pokémon Center was still very popular at night. Miss Junsha, who was on duty at the Pokémon Center, observed every visitor seriously and nodded at Heath when she saw him.
The Alliance has put a lot of effort into the security of the Pokémon Center. After all, this place is prone to problems. Although the Joy family has a wide network of contacts and is loved by all Pokémon trainers, there are always some people who are full of malice towards Miss Joy's Pokémon. It is said that many dark organizations have tried to attack the Pokémon Center and snatch Miss Joy's healing Pokémon such as Happiny and Chandler.
The Alliance's investigators did destroy some similar bases, and found some tortured Happins inside. These guys were captured by the Dark Organization to provide treatment services to their own members, and the methods used were very cruel. The Joey family got angry for the first time, and then the Alliance also got angry. Then the Dark Organization was uprooted, and all the cadres were sent to Yongshu Island, and the leader of the Dark Organization was sentenced to death.
So the Alliance later improved the security level of the Pokémon Center, but even so, there were some idiots who were unafraid of tigers and tried to attack the Pokémon Center.
But that didn't happen today. Heath quietly watched as anxious trainers came in and entrusted their injured Pokémon to Heath. Some seriously injured Pokémon were sent young girl who couldn't bear the pressure and cried with her face covered.
The Pokémon Center has witnessed countless tragedies, as well as countless joys and gratitude. Looking at these living beings, Heath's mood became much calmer, and his mood slowly calmed down. Although there are inevitably people who abandon Pokémon in this world, there are still more people who treat Pokémon as family.
Heath walked out of the Pokémon Center and planned to go see the ghost market in Pitch Gray City.
There is also a ghost market in Deep Gray City, but unlike the ghost market in Pallet Town, the ghost market here is more mysterious. It is concentrated on a small road with dim street lights, stall owners, and customers selecting goods. Looking at the bustling crowd, Heath felt a little headache.
"So many people?" Heath smacked his lips. He didn't want to go in anymore.
"Hurry up, hurry up, I heard that there are rock worms for sale today!" However, the words of a passerby interrupted Heath's idea of turning around and leaving. Heath sighed resignedly. He still had to pay attention to the rock worms. Although Heath felt that he might not be able to afford them, he had to take a look anyway. Otherwise, if he left like this, Heath would not be able to sleep at night.
