Chapter 38: A teacher for a day, a father for life
The three of them were heading towards the Sakuragi Research Institute. The distance was not very close and they still had to walk for dozens of minutes.
Being idle and bored, Xiaozhi couldn't help but take out the illustrated book again with itchy hands.
"By the way, I am already at level 2R. How can I upgrade to level 10R?" he asked.
Shout loudly, "I can beat ten Rockets!"
It's obviously much higher quality than "I can play two Rockets".
"Didi. 10R trainer requirements: Conquer 12 Pokémon and obtain 8 badges."
The illustration replied.
"8..."
Xiaozhi frowned. Now he only has 3 badges, and the journey is very long, but he has already conquered 7 Pokémon. It seems that he should be able to achieve it faster this time.
Maybe you can get an extra new Pokémon by going to Sakuragi Research Laboratory.
As we all know, the research institute is for free-ticket Pokémon.
Then the three of them curiously adjusted the illustration interface to unlock achievements, and it still showed that 3 achievements had been unlocked.
[Road to the Movie King], [Food Chain], and [Longevity Bond].
The top one is [Pokémon King]. According to its meaning, it is estimated that after unlocking all the achievements below, he can become the so-called "Pokémon King".
Damn it, he obviously wants to become a Pokémon Master!
However, it may be because Xiaozhi's level has been upgraded to the 2R level, but this time there are several new achievement prompts below.
"[Renaissance] Achievement: Obtain a fossil Pokémon."
"[Egg-Laying Rooster] Achievement: Obtain a Pokémon egg and hatch it successfully."
"[The Great Onmyoji] Achievements: Conquered a monster (specified gender: female), subdued a Gardevoir (specified gender: male)..."
There are a few Pokémon at the back that Ash has never heard of, and they look like riddles.
"It's all very troublesome..." Xiaogang's eyes were deeply wrinkled.
Xiaoxia also came up and took a closer look. Although the illustrated book gave several achievement information, there were almost none that could be completed in a short time.
"It seems that this is the only last one."
She dragged the screen to the end, and Xiaozhi took a closer look.
"[Once a teacher, always a father (Level 1)]: Teach a newcomer how to catch Pokémon correctly."
"Teaching a newbie how to catch Pokémon?"
Xiaozhi thought for a moment, a few weeks ago he was still a newcomer who didn't know anything.
But now he is a man with 7 Pokémon. Although once the non-combat conquerors are eliminated, it seems that only Toolbird and Bulbasaur are left.
No matter what, he understands.
"I've decided, I'll go to Sakuragi Research Institute and see if there's anything I can teach newbies. I want to be a father for the rest of my life!"
Xiaozhi waved his finger and led Xiaogang and Xiaoxia in that direction.
...
...
Sakuragi Research Institute is located in a fringe area of Kuye City, where housing prices are neither high nor low.
Directly in front of this place is a chic small villa, which serves as the main building of the institute and is used for daily office operations and communication with outsiders.
Behind the villa is a large man-made green park, which is used for the Pokémon in the research institute to rest and live.
Although the area is not comparable to the backyard of the Damu Research Institute in Zhenxin Town. After all, the latter is located in the countryside and the housing prices are not high, but the area is still very vast, and it will not feel crowded even if it contains hundreds of Pokémon.
The door was not closed, so the three of them walked in without thinking and entered a room similar to a public living room.
They have already said hello in advance.
At this moment, three people are sitting in this hall, all wearing academic white coats and looking like scholars.
The leader is a middle-aged uncle with brown hair and a Chinese character face, but he looks very kind and friendly. He is the person they are handing over this time, the director of the Sakuragi Research Institute.
Dr. Sakuragi.
It is said that he was half of Dr. Ohmu's student in his early years, and his academic research was highly recognized by Dr. Ohki.
In autumn, Dr. Oki and Masahiro set up a rack in the backyard to eat plump crabs from the Kanto region.
In the summer, Dr. Oki and Dr. Sakuragi often eat lobsters from the Fang Yuan area in the backyard.
After all, they are all caught with red shells.
We are also old friends.
"Finally, you are here. Let me introduce you. These are my two assistants, Pokémon graduate students, Jurai, and Renji. I am Dr. Sakuragi. I can be regarded as Teacher Ohgi's fan and half-disciple."
Dr. Sakuragi smiled and extended his palm.
Xiaozhi didn't dare to be negligent and quickly extended his palm to shake hands.
"My name is Xiaozhi, and I am currently practicing with my Pikachu to become a Pokémon Master."
"I'm Xiaogang, the trainer of Nibi Gym."
"I am Xiaoxia, the trainer of Hualan Gym."
Everyone said hello, and Jurai, a gentle woman with long blue hair next to them, and Renji, a male science major with glasses and messy yellow hair, also came up to them out of curiosity.
According to Dr. Ohki, the person who came this time was the best trainer in their village, but now he looks like a novice trainer.
You must know that Dr. Oki is an amazing person.
"Haha, Teacher Omu has been praising you to me. I wonder how long Xiaozhi has been a trainer?" Sakuragi asked tentatively.
"Three weeks..."
Xiaozhi answered subconsciously, but quickly added: "It's the third anniversary. Today is the third anniversary, haha."
He suddenly realized that he now represented the face of Zhenxin Town. Xiaozhi quickly opened his eyes and said dirty words to improve his work experience.
In the interview, I added up my 3,579 years of work experience. This is not a lie, it is all for the purpose of getting a job.
After all, ability is the most important thing!
Dr. Sakuragi did not doubt that he was there. After all, Dr. Omu would not lie to him, and then he smiled slowly and said:
"It's been three years, he looks very young..."
Is it true that everyone in New Town became trainers three years in advance?
Or will this boy grow up?
I really want to see if he will still look this young in 20 years...
...
After a while of pleasantries, everyone finally got to the main topic.
"As I mentioned on the phone before, there seems to be a certain wild Pokémon that cannot be seen through that has been living in our research institute. It likes to cause trouble every day, but it's okay. It's not a big problem."
Dr. Sakuragi scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly:
"Maybe it's just lonely and wants to attract people's attention. I quite like this feeling."
"It's just that our Sakuragi Research Institute will be officially opened to the outside world recently. This is a port city with noisy crowds. It doesn't matter to us. After all, we are used to it, but those guests who come may not like this environment. Once these people
It will be troublesome if you are offended."
"Furthermore, we have the most outrageous news media in Kuye City. Once they smell something strange here, pick up rumors and magnify small things infinitely, then the problem will be huge..."
After all, food still needs to be eaten, life still needs to go on, and the institute cannot close down because of such a trivial matter.
Hearing this, Xiaozhi and the three of them nodded cautiously. They had only been here for less than a day, and they had already deeply realized the horror of the news media in Kuye City.
"So our mission is to find this Pokémon? I understand."
Xiaozhi's expression lifted, and another interpretation was that he was asked to subdue this troublemaker.
Very profitable.
"Then I'll leave it to you... The three of us have something to go out for later, so I'll leave it all to you, Xiaozhi-san." Sakuragi showed a helpless smile and patted Xiaozhi on the shoulder.
.
They are researchers, and their combat capabilities are not high, so they can only entrust outsiders in an awkward manner.
"Of course I won't bother you in vain. If you can really solve this supernatural incident, I will give you three tickets for the St. Ann's cruise ship that will sail the day after tomorrow." Dr. Sakuragi added before leaving.
After hearing this, the three people's eyes lit up, they were waiting for your words!
...
...
Soon Dr. Sakuragi and the other three left, leaving only Xiaozhi and three others in the Sakuragi Research Institute at Nuovo University.
They are formulating strategies on how to lure out the troublesome Pokémon.
"If a newbie can appear at this time, I can subdue the troublemakers and become a father for the rest of my life..."
Xiaozhi suddenly sighed.
Not only did he say this sentence, he only saw a voice coming from the door.
"Hey, hey, is Xiaochun here? I came to play with you!"
His voice sounds a bit childish, and he shouldn't be very old.
When the visitor walked into the door, the three of them took a closer look. They saw that this person was a boy with short black hair, with a few small curls. His dark complexion was even as dark as Xiaogang's. When they saw the three of them, their expressions changed.
He looked confused, looking at his age he should be about the same age as Xiaozhi.
"You are...?"
"Let me ask first, are you a trainer?" Xiaozhi asked first.
"Well, I won't be able to receive the Pokémon until one year later..." he replied subconsciously.
Hearing this, Xiaozhi's eyes became brighter than ever before, his tone deepened, and he shouted:
"It's up to you, I'll teach you how to cook!"
