บท 3: Chapter 3: How Does this Work?
Heath had speculated about what his first Pokémon might be. Growlithe? Or one of the starter Pokémon? These seemed like good choices to Heath, but Farfetch'd had never crossed his mind.
Pushing his small cart, Heath walked contentedly towards his residence, happily humming a tune. With a cheat, the future looked promising.
"Hey~ Isn't this little Heath? Are you done for the day?" A fragrant breeze wafted over, followed by a soft touch embracing Heath from behind, causing him to stiffen.
"Sister Jana, aren't you working today?" Heath didn't need to look to know who was behind him.
"Hehe, of course not. I have the day off today~" A teasing voice accompanied by a very pretty woman circled around to Heath's front, pinching his cheeks with a smile.
Heath gasped in pain. Every Officer Jenny had a lot of strength, and Heath felt like he was facing an 85-kg boxing champion.
"Little Heath is back? I want to eat!" Another Officer Jenny, dressed in casual clothes, came out, looking at Heath happily.
"I want egg fried rice!" More and more Officer Jennies gathered around Heath.
Heath scratched his head. After being transmigrated, his biggest misfortune was becoming an orphan with parents who left a mountain of debt. His greatest luck was meeting this group of Officer Jennies.
"All right, don't tease our little Heath anymore. Heath, welcome back." A mature and steady voice spoke, causing all the Officer Jennies to instantly stand straight, their posture very standard.
"Sister Maple!" Heath happily looked at the woman walking over. She was also an Officer Jenny, but she looked more mature.
In his previous life, Heath couldn't tell the difference between Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy. To him, they all looked the same. But now, Heath could easily distinguish these Officer Jennies.
After all, Heath had been living with them for four years, growing from a 13-year-old kid to a 17-year-old teenager.
Seeing the Officer Jennies around him, eagerly looking at him with hunger, Heath couldn't bear to see them go hungry. That was something a chef could never refuse.
So, Heath quickly went to the kitchen of the Officer Jennies' gathering place and started preparing dinner for them.
Many residents lived in Viridian City, so there were many Officer Jennies here. Heath was the only boy among these girls. In a harem anime, this would have been a great setup.
Unfortunately, this was the Pokémon world. Besides their majestic Growlithe and Arcanine, these Officer Jennies had incredible physical strength. Heath had seen their sparring sessions, which made him gulp.
Luckily, Heath had conquered these strong-willed women in other ways.
"Sure enough, Heath's cooking is the best~" In the small dining room, each Officer Jenny, who looked almost identical, happily ate Heath's food, their faces full of bliss.
"So, have you paid off your parents' debt now?" Maple, who adopted Heath, smiled at him and asked seriously.
"Yes, I paid it off and bought a Poké Ball," Heath said, scratching his head shyly. Maple was like a sister to him, not a biological sister, but even closer.
"Oh? Are you planning to become a Pokémon Trainer? Or will you follow my advice and join our police force?" Maple's eyes lit up, and she asked Heath with a delighted expression.
Heath stuffed a spoonful of fried rice into his mouth, chewed, and thought that today's fried rice turned out well. The leek Farfetch'd gave him had enhanced the flavor.
After hesitating for a moment, Heath shared that he had caught a Farfetch'd, surprising Maple. She then seriously explained the peculiarities of Farfetch'd to him.
Although Farfetch'd was a protected Pokémon, its delicious meat and the fact that it carried seasoning made it a target for many Pokémon hunters. If Heath traveled with Farfetch'd, he might encounter some malicious people.
Heath nodded. He had considered this. Without the system, he might have chosen a different path, but with his system, things were different.
However, Heath was puzzled. Why hadn't the text box appeared? He had gotten rewards after serving Farfetch'd before.
After dinner, Heath followed Maple back to the dormitory. He enthusiastically cleaned the dorm and even tidied up the neighboring dorm, but still didn't see the text box.
Heath felt confused. Farfetch'd had indeed been modified, no doubt about it. But what were the conditions for the text box to appear? Heath didn't understand yet.
Following Maple's instructions, Heath released Farfetch'd that evening and groomed its feathers to strengthen their bond. Farfetch'd acted normally around Maple, seemingly aware that women in this uniform wouldn't harm it.
Maple watched Farfetch'd with amazement. It was rare to see such a protected animal, and she reported this to the League. The League sent someone late at night to register Farfetch'd with Heath.
Farfetch'd, being a rare protected Pokémon, was registered upon being caught, and the League would keep an eye on its condition.
After a busy evening, Heath naturally woke up at five in the morning.
He quietly dressed, grabbed his things, and left the dormitory, pushing his cart towards the city.
Running a breakfast stall had made Heath accustomed to waking up at five. Only by getting up this early could he buy cheap ingredients. Fortunately, he had enough ingredients left for today.
"Good morning, little Heath. Up early as always, I see." A mature man's voice called out, and Heath recognized it immediately.
"Mr. Giovanni, you're up early too. Would you like something to eat?" Heath turned to see Giovanni, dressed in a black suit, and smiled as he asked.
Yes, this was Giovanni of Viridian City, the Gym Leader and head of the dark organization Team Rocket, who was also one of Heath's customers.
