I run an orphanage in the Pokémon world.

"It can't be this adoption center..." Teng Shu scratched his head. He planned to check it out next time he went to Changqing City. If it really was this kind of scheme, he would ask the Officer Jenny Alliance if there were any corresponding penalties for this method.

Otherwise, the phenomenon of abandonment may continue to increase in the future.

After all, these free Pokémon are expensive, so it's normal to abandon them when you're angry.

Chapter 209 Wearing a Bear and Dumplings

Holding the flyer in his hand, Teng Shu returned to the welfare home. He greeted Tong Ou Xiong, who was standing guard attentively nearby. Tong Ou Xiong waved happily to Teng Shu and then continued to stand guard with a serious expression and sharp eyes. He looked like the kind of security guard that residents could trust.

"Big Black, aren't you cold like this?" Teng Shu asked the teddy bear with concern.

The teddy bear is dressed as a Konoha Jonin today. It seems to really like this outfit, as it's still wearing its mask and is cosplaying as Kakashi.

However, although such clothes look very cool, they actually have some problems with warmth. With the recent cold wave, the temperature today has dropped to the point where you can see the warm breath you exhale when you breathe.

The teddy bear immediately shook its head, then happily gestured. Teng Shu didn't understand, but could sense the teddy bear's joy and excitement.

Just as Teng Shu was pondering whether or not to buy Tongou Bear a down jacket, he was suddenly blinded by a bright light. Teng Shu was a little confused. He noticed that the bright light was coming from Tongou Bear. This was the light of evolution!

"It evolved? Doll Bear? Huh?" Teng Shu looked at the scene before him with some confusion. Doll Bear had actually evolved?

But what was going on? Teng Shu couldn't quite figure it out.

Before Tengshu could figure it out, the light of evolution dissipated, and then a bear dressed as a human appeared in front of him. The bear was still wearing Kakashi's clothes, but because it had grown much larger, the clothes were torn, revealing the bear's fur. But what caught Tengshu's attention even more was the bear's skin.

The dense scars are still distributed on the bear's body, like some unique armor, but they have faded a lot, giving the bear a more unique feel now.

It's just like...

It's like some kind of Frankenstein's monster.

"Roar..." The bear scurried away in a panic, its eyes filled with deep fear and inferiority. Teng Shu saw this and felt a pang of pain in his heart.

Although Tengshu thought that wearing the bear costume was actually quite cool, it was clear that for the bear costume itself, it would rather not have such scars on its body, as these scars would bring it shame.

"Big Black, let's go." Teng Shu called out. The bear was stunned for a moment, but when it saw Teng Shu's determined eyes, the panic in its eyes slowly faded, and it chose to follow Teng Shu to the infirmary.

Teng Shu stuffed the bear-themed suit into the medical pod.

[Moderate skin erosion and scarring, healing time: three hours]

Seeing the notification pop up, Teng Shu felt a little relieved. The skin erosion on the Tongou Bear was previously incurable. Teng Shu had tried, but there was no way to cure it. Now, however, it was possible.

It's estimated that the child bear evolved into a cloth bear and baptized its body with the light of evolution, which made this healing method feasible.

"Big Black, you stay here quietly, and you won't have these scars when you come out." Teng Shu patted the outer shell of the medical pod reassuringly. The bear nodded obediently, then lay down inside somewhat nervously. Teng Shu wanted to laugh a little; the bear was still a bit nervous.

However, Teng Shu really didn't expect that the bear would evolve so suddenly. After all, the evolution of the abandoned monkey took a long time, and it also experienced the attack of black flames, which made the abandoned monkey see through life and death and thus complete its evolution.

However, the evolution of the bear seemed a bit too sudden.

After settling the bear in his protective suit, Teng Shu left the infirmary. He needed to go to the kitchen to cook. On the way, he ran into Grandpa Xingzhen, who was cleaning the house very diligently.

Just as Teng Shu was about to have a chat with the old man, three heads peeked out from the wall.

"Uncle Tengshu!" Xiao Lan's voice was a little loud and easy to hear. Then Xiao Lan climbed over and was lifted up by an invisible force and gently placed on the grass.

"Good morning, Xiao Lan." Teng Shu greeted her with a smile. The three little girls had finally come today. Teng Shu had been wondering what the three sisters had been up to and why they hadn't come for most of the day.

"Good morning, Uncle Tengshu." Xiaohuang also crawled over. She was dressed more warmly today, but Tengshu noticed that Xiaohuang was wearing a Poké Ball on her waist. And it wasn't an ordinary Poké Ball, but a deluxe Poké Ball.

Tengshu was somewhat surprised. Could it be that Xiaohuang also had its own Pokémon?

"Good morning, Uncle Tengshu." Xiaohong was the last to come in. She walked very steadily, and her gait and posture gave off the air of a well-bred young lady.

Teng Shu was used to Xiao Hong's behavior, so he smiled and said good morning to her.

"What do you want to eat today?" Teng Shu smiled and pinched Xiao Lan's cheek. It was chubby and soft, and felt quite nice to the touch.

"Eat...dumplings..." Xiao Lan mumbled incoherently.

Teng Shu was stunned for a moment. Dumplings?

The Pokémon world naturally has dumplings, but the way dumplings are eaten in the Kanto region is a bit hard for Tengshu to accept. This is because people in the Kanto region like to eat dumplings as a dish. They even eat dumplings with rice, and the dipping sauces they use are usually sweet and sour sauce or ketchup, which is quite magical.

However, considering today's weather, Teng Shu thought that eating dumplings would be a good idea. Eating dumplings in winter is a tradition, and it is said that because dumplings look somewhat like ears, eating dumplings can prevent your ears from freezing off in winter.

Of course, nowadays it's practically impossible for someone to lose their ears in winter, unless they live in a place with particularly harsh weather and then deliberately do something reckless.

For example, someone might get drunk in the dead of winter, get lost, and end up sleeping in the wild.

"Okay, then let's have dumplings today." Teng Shu smiled and patted Xiao Lan's head.

"Uncle Tengshu, I want to eat dumplings with cheese filling." Xiao Huang made a small request. Tengshu was silent for a moment, then his face twisted in pain.

The attendant who had just entered through the main gate had a sympathetic look on his face.

Having cared for the three sisters for so long, they naturally knew how unique Little Yellow was, and how particular her tastes were...

strange.

"Cheese filling?" Teng Shu was speechless. He thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out how cheese and dumplings were related.

"Yes! This is the cheese!" Xiao Huang brought out a bag containing some cheese. It looked rather ordinary, but Teng Shu noticed the golden patterns on it.

They don't look very cheap.

Chapter 210 Teng Shu: I Made a Decision Against My Ancestors

Teng Shu looked solemn.

He made a difficult decision, one that went against the wishes of his ancestors.

Make dumplings with cheese filling.

God knows how heavy-hearted Tengshu was when she made the dumplings, but in order to prevent the cheese from leaking out of the dumplings and ruining the whole pot of soup, Tengshu still put in some effort to ensure the integrity of the dumplings and prevent the dumpling soup from turning into a cheese flavor.

However, to avoid the possibility of flavors mixing, Tengshu chose to cook the cheese dumplings in this pot separately, while cooking the other dumplings separately. This way, the potential problem of flavors mixing could be avoided.

"Sigh, cheese filling, sigh, dumplings." Teng Shu looked at the dumplings in front of him with a hint of pity in his eyes. What was the difference between these and a pot of dumplings filled with strawberry jam?

Teng Shu silently scooped the dumpling out and put it in a bowl.

"Want to try some?" A strange thought came to Teng Shu's mind. After all, as a chef, it's normal to taste the dishes he makes. Of course, he wouldn't taste every dish. He would only taste a dish when making a new one, in order to accurately control the flavor.

But looking at the cheese-filled dumplings in front of him, Tengshu still didn't have the courage to eat them, so he simply took them out and gave them to Xiaohuang.

As soon as Tengshu stepped outside, he saw Locke, who was sitting in a chair looking utterly dejected. Beside him was Xiaolan, who had a notebook in her hand and was bombarding Locke with questions, leaving him completely bewildered.

"!" Locke saw Tengshu and looked at him expectantly. Tengshu smiled and called out, "Dinner's ready!" Only then did Xiaolan let go of Locke and obediently sit in the chair, staring blankly at Tengshu. Xiaohong helped Xiaolan smooth her hair.

"Little Yellow, your cheese dumplings... anyone want some? I made some more?" Teng Shu handed Little Yellow's bowl over, then looked at Little Blue and Little Red and asked. Both girls shook their heads, while Locke stared at Little Yellow in shock. What had he just heard? Cheese dumplings?

heresy!

Pure heresy!

Apologize to the dumplings!

"Dean, isn't there any rice?" Locke asked curiously, looking at the meat dumplings in the bowl. Teng Shu glanced at Locke silently, then shook his head decisively.

Although Teng Shu didn't intend to deprive others of their preference for eating dumplings with rice, it didn't mean he would support it. Besides, he hadn't prepared any rice that morning, and eating rice so early in the morning felt rather strange.

Locke smacked his lips. Without rice, the dumplings were half as delicious. But Locke still ate the dumplings obediently. After all, Tengshu's dumplings were quite good. With the dipping sauce, they had a unique flavor. It was just that the lack of rice made Locke feel a little uneasy. If it weren't for the fact that it was too late to order takeout, Locke would have asked someone to send rice over.

Tengshu casually prepared breakfast for the Pokémon, which was also dumplings. However, to make it easier for the Pokémon to digest, Tengshu soaked the dumplings in dumpling soup, making them somewhat like wontons.

However, Tengshu didn't mind. The Pokémon were quite happy with their food, and that was enough for him.

After finishing breakfast and washing the dishes, Teng Shu also brought breakfast to the bear wearing the clothes and sent the excited bear out. Then he left his orphanage. Today he was going to take his driver's license test and try to pass the first part. Once he passed the first part, the second part would be no problem for Teng Shu, an experienced driver.

"I didn't expect that after Dahei's skin disease was cured, it would give people a strange feeling." Teng Shu pondered as he rode his bicycle.

The bear had erosive scars on its body due to an illness. The scars faded a bit after evolution, but the bear was still very concerned about them. So, Tengshu took it to the medical pod. The treatment cured it, but some minor problems remained.

For example, the bear wearing the clothes was very uncomfortable. After it came out, even though the vine showed it a mirror, the bear still reached out its paws to stroke its body, as if those ugly scars were still there.

The second issue is the color of the bear's fur.

Perhaps due to the new skin, the colors of those new skins are somewhat different and much lighter, which results in many darker 'stripes' on the bear's body. However, this problem should be resolved after the bear lives there for a while longer.

"So now the problem in the orphanage is Baby Dragon Mingyue." Teng Shu said thoughtfully. Baby Dragon's disability has not been cured yet, and Baby Dragon does not seem to be evolving for the time being.

Dragon-type Pokémon are generally quite strong after reaching their Ultimate Form, but relatively speaking, they are usually weaker before reaching their Ultimate Form. Some Dragon-type Pokémon also require a lot of resources and a long period of growth to reach their full potential.

It's very difficult for Baby Dragon to evolve, and there's been no movement at all. Teng Shu doesn't know when Baby Dragon will evolve. Every day, he takes the Magic Conch and asks if there are any easier ways to deal with Baby Dragon's missing limb, but so far, the Magic Conch hasn't been triggered.

Indeed, randomness isn't always a good thing.

Pure randomness can lead to some really outrageous things, so most games are pseudo-random, otherwise it would be easy to have absurd situations where a game doesn't trigger a single random event.

Riding his bicycle, Teng Shu arrived at the driving test center in Changqing City and went inside to begin his theory test for the day.

However, thanks to Teng Shu's diligent study during this period, he found the exam content to be quite simple, and he was able to answer most of the questions. After the exam, he waited for a while and then saw his score for Subject 1.

"You passed? Not bad." Teng Shu smiled. Now that he had passed the first subject, he would take the second subject and try to drive home today.

With this in mind, Teng Shu applied for the next driving test, and this time he passed it very easily, although some bizarre things happened on the road.

For example, the ground might suddenly shake and a mechanical ground squirrel might emerge, or you might suddenly encounter a Pokémon riding a surfer on the road. Fortunately, Tengshu is very experienced and handles these crises properly.

I passed the driving test (Part 2).

In the world of Pokémon, there are only these two tests, and Tengshu successfully obtained his driver's license before noon.

"Mr. Tengshu, are you taking an exam too?" a gentle voice asked.

Teng Shu turned its head away.

The cold wind howled, ruffling the girl's long hair.

Chapter 211 Driver's License and Pink-Haired Girl

Teng Shu blinked.

He didn't know the woman.

The other person had pink hair and was very cute. She was smiling, and Tengshu could see her little tiger teeth.

If Teng Shu had seen such a unique girl, he would definitely remember her, since Teng Shu has a very good memory. Moreover, this girl is indeed very beautiful. Teng Shu would remember her if he had seen her before, but he has no recollection of her at all now.

"Who are you?" Teng Shu looked at the other person with some doubt, and then saw the girl happily run over, stand in front of Teng Shu, tilt her head and lean in, looking at Teng Shu with a smile.

"Mr. Teng Shu, don't you recognize me? You treated me like that before~" The girl's breath was sweet and fragrant, but Teng Shu was even more puzzled. The men around them cast envious glances, and many of them had thoughts of replacing her.

Teng Shu frowned slightly. The other person's mischievous look made Teng Shu think of something. After all, among the people he knew, only that one guy had this hobby.

“Zoro…” Tengshu tentatively asked, and then saw the girl’s surprised look. Only then did Tengshu confirm that this guy was Zoroark. However, for some reason, Zoroark, who usually exposed his tail every time he put on the Phantom, had a perfect disguise this time, without any abnormality.

"What are you doing here?" Knowing that the other party was Zoroark, Tengshu naturally didn't care. Zoroark was just a Pokémon, although in Tengshu's opinion, Zoroark was probably everyone's dream Pokémon.

After all, Zoroark can create illusions and transform into any form. Theoretically, for otaku, changing wives every day wouldn't be a problem. Moreover, the biggest difference between Zoroark and Shapeshifters is that Zoroark's illusions are very realistic, and Zoroark also possesses a certain level of intelligence.

"Of course, it's to get a driver's license." Zoroark pointed to the driver's license in Teng Shu's hand. Teng Shu's expression became a little strange. This was outrageous. Zoroark actually wanted to get a driver's license?

Teng Shu thought about the prototype of Zoroark: a large fox with feet, but claws, which might still be very attractive to Fury fans.

So Zoroark is planning to use its claws to press the accelerator and brake pedals? Will that work?

Just as he was thinking this, Teng Shu noticed a man hurrying out. When he saw Zoroark, his face darkened, and he rushed over, sweating profusely despite the cold weather.

“Miss Momoka! I’ll give you three thousand Alliance Coins, please go to another driving school!” the man said pitifully. Teng Shu looked at Zoroark with amusement. What had this guy done to force a driving school to this point, paying Zoroark to go elsewhere? This was truly amazing.

Zoroark was annoyed by Teng Shu's gaze. She stomped her foot and glared at the man with a hostile expression.

“Miss Momoka, it’s not that we don’t want to host you, it’s just that all the coaches are sick and in the hospital right now, there’s no one to help us.” The man said pitifully, but Zoroark remained silent.

Teng Shu thought back to when he was taking his driving test. The instructors were still explaining various issues to the students. So, after he left for a short while, all of them got sick.

So there is only one truth.

The coaches were all afraid of Zoroark and dared not take his orders.

"...I just saw Coach Daikin!" Zoroark said in an unfriendly tone, looking at Teng Shu who was struggling to hold back his laughter. Upon hearing Zoroark's words, the man's expression remained unchanged, and he blurted out, "Coach Daikin's wife is pregnant, and he's going to the hospital."

"So where's Coach Xiao Hei?" Zoroark asked, pointing to a man who had just come out of the driving school. When Coach Xiao Hei heard his name, he first looked up and glanced at him. But when he noticed Zoroark, his expression changed drastically.

"I...my wife gave birth! I need to go to the hospital!" Xiao Hei rushed out from Zoroark's side in a hurry, only to be grabbed by the collar by Zoroark.

"Your wife is a single person?" Zoroark asked with an unfriendly expression. Even if it were an idiot, it knew it had been fooled.

"Alright, stop making a fuss." Teng Shu said helplessly. If people don't want to do business with you, you can't force them to do business with you. You can't force people to buy or sell, and that includes the purchase. If a merchant is unwilling to provide services, then others can't say anything.
