Chapter 27: Hot Pot and Mountaineers
"Trainer trainer! I want to eat that! Zoroya excitedly pointed to a piece of beef, and said excitedly, Hiss reluctantly picked up the chopsticks, sandwiched a slice of beef, dipped it in the oil saucer, and stuffed it into Zoroya's mouth.
"And this!" Zoroa pointed to another oyster mushroom, and Hiss picked it up, and then stuffed it into Zoroa's mouth, this Zoroa was still an omnivorous Pokémon, and Hiss thought that Zoroa was only interested in meat.
"Trainer, you're saying this mushroom is weird." Zoroya pointed to the oyster mushrooms in the hot pot as he ate, muttering in his mouth.
"What's wrong?" Hiss looked at Zoroa puzzled, could it be that this mushroom is poisonous? But this thing Hiss eats a lot, and it's completely non-toxic.
"You see, it's long and hard, but after a while in this hot thing, it becomes soft and has no energy." Zoroa licked his lips and spoke with interest.
Hiss's expression became wrong, there was nothing wrong with what he said, but why did it seem to be a problem when he thought about it?
"And you see, on its slender body, it has a big head." Zoroa had a playful smile on his face, the corners of Hiss's mouth twitched, and he gave Zoroya a brain crash angrily, this guy is really enough, obviously he is just eating a hot pot, how can he still drive a car?
Fortunately, only Zoroa, a guy with a head full of yellow waste, cares about these things, and the green onion duck and the little fire dragon obviously didn't understand Zoroa's words.
Then Hiss had to pick up another pair of chopsticks and clip a piece of tofu to the green onion duck, only the little fire dragon was more troublesome for Hiss, he wanted to eat a roast chicken leg, the little fire dragon was more interested in the roasted chicken thigh, and had little interest in the others.
"This hot pot is tiring to eat, so I won't eat it next time." Hiss shook his head helplessly, if Pokémon can't use chopsticks, then eating hot pot becomes a physical job, for Hiss, he has to put down the ingredients, and he has to pick up and feed his Pokémon, which can be described as exhausting.
But fortunately, Zoroa and the green onion duck didn't have a big appetite, so after feeding for a while, Hiss finished feeding, which also gave Hiss time to eat by himself.
"Huh? There is one here. Restaurant? Just as Hiss picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks, he heard the sound of someone talking, and Hiss didn't have time to complain, so he put down his chopsticks and wiped his hands and stood up.
Being a chef is like that, you never know when a guest will come to your door, and sometimes you have to eat and rest, but the guest comes.
If there is a restaurant, Heath can also post a notice of business hours, but the current food truck can't be so particular, so it can only be settled.
Immediately after that, Hiss saw a bearded man with a backpack and a beard standing in front of Hiss's dining car, looking curiously at Hiss's dining car.
As soon as he saw this man, Hiss thought of the mountaineering man in the game, who was too similar, and the shape was exactly the same, especially the thick beard, which could be described as very expressive.
"Hello, I'm the owner of the dining car, do you plan to eat something?" Heath looked at the guest in front of him with a smile, the road to the champion has finally come, but he doesn't know what this guest does.
However, Heath has little interest in what the guests are doing when they come to the Road to the Championship, and he is more concerned about whether the guests want something to eat.
"Hey, it's too cold today, any hot meals?" The uncle in front of him rubbed his hands, sighed hotly, and then asked with a smile.
"Naturally, there is this, and braised pork rice is a hot meal." Hiss nodded immediately, basically all the food he had here was hot, but in this bad weather outside, it would probably not be long before a hot meal would get cold.
"How much?" The uncle did not rush to buy, but asked.
"Twenty Union Coins." Hiss said a figure that he had thought of a long time ago, Hiss originally only charged sixteen yuan for braised pork rice, and four yuan was an additional amount, after all, it would take a while to get from Evergreen City to the road to the championship.
"No problem, bring me one." The uncle quickly paid for it, and Heath began to busily make this braised pork rice.
"Young man, you're still open when it's so cold?" This uncle is obviously a good talker, and after deciding what to buy, he starts chatting with Hiss.
And Hiss is not surprised, in fact, as long as he has been a chef for a long time, then all kinds of guests will be encountered, and some guests are not very talkative, except for ordering a dish and saying the name of the dish, the rest of the time is without speaking.
Some guests are like the uncle in front of them, they are very good at talking, and they can chat quickly with strangers, and of course there are other guests of all kinds, such as busy people who keep calling as soon as they come in, and urban women who take advantage of their meals to touch up their makeup.
"Well, I thought about coming to the Road of Champions to see if business would be any better here, but I didn't expect to entertain two guests from yesterday to today." Heath said with a smile, he is also a good talker.
"Hey, you're not at the right time at this point, the road to the championship will only be lively when the quartz league is held, and now you can meet a trainer who comes to exercise in about four or five days." Uncle stood on the edge of Hiss's food truck and put his hand on the counter, and it was warm in the food truck.
Heath smiled awkwardly, he had thought that there should be a lot of people on the road to the championship before, but now that he thinks about it, it is true that there will not be a few people coming, after all, if you exercise, you can also exercise in other places.
"Uncle, you're also a trainer, aren't you?" Hiss spread the sliced braised pork on top of the rice, put the boiled cabbage, and poured the sauce on it, and a good and delicious braised pork rice was ready.
"I'm not a trainer, I fantasized about it when I was younger, but then I realized that being a trainer was too expensive, so I switched careers to become a mountaineer." The uncle smiled heartily, and it could be seen that the uncle was in a very good mood today.
Hiss was stunned for a moment, he was really a mountaineer, and he didn't know what kind of character GF was referring to when he designed the mountaineer.
"When it snows, the road is slippery, you'd better not drive, wait until the weather clears and the road is dry before walking, you can follow this road to the alliance headquarters in the Quartz Plateau, and you can also go to Evergreen City." The uncle introduced him very enthusiastically, and Hiss nodded gratefully, and he still wanted to thank others for their kindness.
