Chapter 571: Strange Wish
This is what Heath concluded from Lalu Las. In Heath's opinion, spirits like Lalu Las who stay in this world mostly do so because they have some obsessions or wishes that cannot be fulfilled. However, Heath is not sure whether every soul is like this.
"Last wish? I don't know. After I woke up, I didn't seem to have many memories and emotions. The only feeling was that I was very hungry... Maybe having a full meal is my last wish?" The man touched his stomach with a wry smile. Heath took a look at his stomach. It was very empty. A normal person, even a thin person, would have a flat belly, but this man's belly was sunken, which looked a little creepy.
This is not an ordinary depression. It seems as if the belly there is directly attached to the spine. It looks extremely horrible and scary, as if there is no such thing as intestines or stomach there.
"Then try this rice and see if it suits your taste." Heath handed the prepared lettuce and minced meat fried rice to the man in front of him. Heath didn't know how the other party should eat it. Anyway, Jun Shaqi couldn't eat it. However, Jun Shaqi's ghost was more special, and Heath didn't know whether the rules among ghosts were universal.
After all, Heath’s understanding and knowledge of these ghosts is still not very deep now. Perhaps when Heath comes into contact with more ghosts in the future, he will be able to understand more about this creature.
The man picked up the spoon hesitantly, but then the spoon passed through his hand. Heath's mouth twitched. Oh my god, then how should this man eat?
Heath was a little embarrassed because he didn't have any tableware to entertain ghost guests.
"Sorry, sorry, I forgot for a moment." The man scratched his head with a smile, then he reached out and scooped up the rice with his hand. But in Heath's view, the rice was still on the plate, but the man did scoop out some rice and stuffed it into his mouth.
The man was suddenly stunned. Heath looked at him. The other party just kept chewing, and his eyes changed from not expecting at the beginning to surprise and astonishment now. This made Heath have some guesses. Could it be that his idea was right, and this man might indeed not be full for some reason, and now he could make him full?
"Delicious!" Sure enough, the next second the man raised his head and looked at Heath with surprise. The fanaticism in the other's eyes made Heath take a step back. It was as if the man wanted to eat Heath.
[You entertained Ono (ghost), and you obtained a root card *1]
Heath was stunned for a moment. The other party's name seemed to be Xiaoye, which was not very strange. What Heath was more concerned about was the reward given this time. He actually gave a card? Why did he give a card?
Heath took out a card from his pocket in confusion. There was only a small pattern similar to plant roots on it, and nothing else.
[Root Card: A card with a root pattern, maybe it has some use? ]
Heath's mouth twitched. Oh my god, this is the Riddler, right? He started with a sentence that seemed to be said but not said at the same time. Heath couldn't understand what this sentence was trying to express.
However, Heath still put this thing away. The things given to him by the system are often useful most of the time. Of course, there are occasional situations where they are useless, such as the GS Ball that Heath got before. Until now, Heath still can't figure out what the purpose of that Poké Ball is. This makes Heath very confused. He remembers that the ball seems to be used to catch some Pokémon, but Heath can't remember what Pokémon it is.
"Boss, the rice you cooked is really delicious." While Heath was thinking about things, Mr. Ono had unknowingly finished the fried rice that Heath brought to him. He was now sitting there with a contented look on his face, stroking his stomach.
Heath glanced at Mr. Ono. His belly now looked a little bigger. If Mr. Ono's belly was sticking to his back before, now there was a small distance between his belly and his back. Although it was not very obvious, it was visible.
"Would you like to eat something else?" Heath asked Mr. Ono in front of him. The other party seemed to be a little better than before.
But just when Ono was about to speak, Heath noticed that Mr. Ono's body suddenly began to glow, and as Mr. Ono's body glowed, Mr. Ono's body slowly returned to normal. The hungry and skinny appearance disappeared, and instead a very ordinary man appeared.
"Ah ... I seem to... know my wish." Mr. Ono looked down at his body. He seemed to have remembered something. Heath was shocked. He had never expected that Mr. Ono would have eaten a meal and then fulfilled his wish? This wish was too outrageous, wasn't it?
Could it be that some people’s only wish is to be able to eat their fill?
"Thank you, boss. I don't have anything to give you... I'm really sorry." Mr. Ono looked at Heath apologetically. Heath scratched his head. He didn't care so much about the meal money. After all, Mr. Ono was a ghost. But now Heath was more curious about what Mr. Ono's wish was. Why did Mr. Ono seem to be liberated just because he just gave him a meal?
"Actually, I just remembered it. I died of gastrointestinal cancer, and I had never eaten anything properly before I died, so my wish is just to have a meal." Mr. Ono smiled embarrassedly. Heath couldn't help but take a look at Ralts outside. If the wishes of humans and Pokémon can be so outrageous, then what would Ralts' wish be?
Heath thought of his own achievement mission. Could it be that Lalulas's wish was to make the four scums who tortured her pay the price?
Or will Heath only know what Laltulas's remaining wish is after Heath completes Laltulas' achievement?
Heath felt that this was very possible. After all, Lalu Las's situation was very special, and Mr. Ono's wish was so outrageous, so Lalu Las's outrageousness was not surprising at all.
