Chapter 705: Suddenly Something Strange Happened
Lugia left, and Ho-Oh also left. Heath got his reward, two candies. The effect was stronger, but for Heath it was better than nothing. He kept the candies and did not use them for the time being. Instead, he continued to entertain today's guests. However, for some reason, today's guests seemed to have decreased a lot all of a sudden. It was not until lunchtime that Heath's dining car became a little more lively.
"Hello, boss. We're here to have dinner." Two familiar voices. Heath looked up and recognized the two girls. They were the two girls he had seen before, except that the girl who looked tortured by illness yesterday seemed to be much more energetic today. If anything , it was like a person who had stayed up late for several days suddenly fell into a good sleep.
The thick dark circles under her eyes were gone and her mental state was better. I don't know if she had seen a doctor and received treatment, but Heath was quite happy to see it. After all, if a customer died in his restaurant, even if it was not caused by Heath, it would have an impact on Heath's business activities. What's more, Heath didn't want the girl to die like this. Fortunately, her health has improved.
"Welcome, would you like to eat something?" Although it was dinner time, there were not many customers in Heath's dining car at the moment, which made Heath a little curious. Although he had only been in Dead Leaf City for a while, Heath still had some understanding of Dead Leaf City. In Heath's opinion, Dead Leaf City was a place with good feng shui, and business was particularly good. Sometimes he could meet people from other areas, and Heath's restaurant was crowded at dinner time, but he did not expect that there were fewer people today.
"Well, just the same as yesterday~" the girl immediately stated her request. Heath nodded after hearing it. He remembered that the two girls liked to eat Western food, which was not difficult to make. Heath planned to cook it himself. After all, there were too few customers now, so Heath didn't need to let Farfetch'n Fetch to handle it.
The two girls sat together, and then they began to chatter about something. There were few people in the dining car at that time, and the two girls sat relatively close to Heath. Heath had good hearing, so he heard the conversation between the two girls. Heath swore that he was definitely not a person who liked to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, but the two girls ' voices were really loud.
"Hey, Nana, do you know? Since last night, a ghost story has been circulating in Vermilion City. It's super scary. It's said that someone accidentally encountered it and now they are missing!" The girl who was talking was very lively. Heath remembered that her name was Meiling, a very common name, even very popular. There are many girls with this name in the Pokémon world, just like the common name Zhang Wei. All the guests Heath received had this name.
"I know. You're talking about the Poké Ball legend, right?" It seemed that the physical problem had been solved, so Nana became gossipy. She immediately answered her good friend's words, and at the same time, she also showed that she was actually a person who paid close attention to social trends. When Heath heard this, he was also stunned. A legend? There are also legends in the Pokémon world? But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem to be a problem. After all, there were some strange rumors in the previous life, just like there are often various legends in some schools.
There were rumors about human models running around in the classroom late at night, a piano that could play itself, etc. The most widespread rumor was that the school was built on a mass grave or a cemetery.
"Yes, that's it. No one dared to come out to work today. And I told you, a female student disappeared because of this..." Meiling became more and more excited as she spoke. Heath checked his phone curiously and saw this strange Poké Ball story.
The earliest rumor was seen by Heath in the Vermilion City forum. Heath looked at the strange post and summarized it. It roughly said that the protagonist discovered that there was something wrong with his Poké Ball a few days ago. The empty Poké Ball he bought would suddenly . The protagonist said that he had clearly placed it on the desk outside before he went to bed, but after waking up, it appeared under his desk. However, the problem is that he lives alone at home without opening the windows, so theoretically this is impossible.
"This post is quite long, and it's a narrative in nature. It's quite true?" Heath smacked his lips. This post was published more than a week ago. The poster has been telling his own stories, and it has attracted more and more attention. However, Heath, who has experienced the information society, doesn't quite believe it. After all, Heath has seen many such late-night story sessions in his previous life.
The most obvious one was a post in a forum in the previous life, and then a joke like "Brother, our family is rich" was circulated, which was quickly and widely spread, thus triggering a series of events. Everyone felt sorry for the considerate and well-behaved sister. As a result, the poster came out and said that this was actually a story, not a real thing. So Heath felt that some information in this world should not be listened to blindly, and needs to be carefully checked and analyzed before deciding whether it is true or not.
After all, in the Internet age, the cost of spreading rumors is simply too low.
However, this post is very interesting. After listening to the poster's narration, Heath felt like he was watching a movie. The Poké Ball was under the desk at the beginning, and later appeared directly at the door of the bedroom. It was as if the Poké Ball was slowly looking for its owner. It really looked a bit weird.
Then the poster was looking for help, and the post attracted some attention. Some people didn't believe it and suggested using a camera. The poster actually did it, and everyone saw that the Poké Ball rolled down by itself, and then rolled directly to the bedroom door, and even jumped up, opened the bedroom door, and rolled in.
It's the type that makes people feel uneasy just by watching it, but Heath doesn't care at all, as it's not like the video can't be faked.
Heath saw the back, and the Poké Ball finally appeared directly on the protagonist's bed, lying quietly on it. The owner said that he was afraid to sleep at night now, and there were strange sounds coming from the Poké Ball, like sawing wood, or a hoarse woman singing...
