Three o'clock in the afternoon, Aoki Research Institute.
Zhao Chen looked up at the research institute in front of him that was built in the style of a Slowpoke. Even the outer walls were painted pink. From a distance, it looked like a huge Slowpoke lying on the grass.
The Aoki Research Institute is located on the outskirts of Jiangzhou City, covering an area of seven kilometers. There is a well-equipped ecological park behind the institute, with wooden railings used to delineate the boundaries.
The door of the research institute is the mouth of Slowpoke. Because he had contacted him on the phone before, Zhao Chen rushed over in a car. He knocked on the door. Soon, there was a woman wearing a white coat and thick glasses.
Came over and opened the door.
"Hello, I'm Zhao Chen who you contacted on the phone this morning. I'm here to apply for the position of research assistant!" Zhao Chen introduced simply.
"Okay, welcome to the Aoki Research Institute. My name is Luo Shan, and I am Dr. Aoki's assistant." The woman smiled and led Zhao Chen into the room, and then asked: "Have you brought your breeder trainer's ID?
"
"Bring it!" Zhao Chen nodded, took out his ID from his backpack and handed it to the other party.
Luo Shan took it and took a look at it, then returned the certificate to Zhao Chen.
"The monthly salary Aoki Research Institute can give you is about 4,000 yuan. In addition, the institute will take care of your dinner. If you are willing, you can sign an agreement with us." Luo Shan introduced.
"So simple?" Zhao Chen was stunned. He thought he needed to go through an interview and other processes.
Luo Shan saw what he was thinking at a glance, and explained helplessly: "There are fewer people looking for jobs recently, and college graduates don't like this job at all. Speaking of which... you are only sixteen years old and are in your third year of high school.
Bar?"
"Yes." Zhao Chen nodded. He knew more or less what Luo Shan said. Trainer is a high-paying and popular position, so why would he be interested in the 4k salary.
"I got the certificate of junior breeder and trainer in my third year of high school... You are very good!" Luo Shan adjusted her black-rimmed glasses and said as if sighing.
"So-so." Zhao Chen showed an embarrassed smile. Obtaining these two certificates as a senior in high school was just like getting a CET-4 certificate in high school in his previous life.
Afterwards, Luo Shan took Zhao Chen to familiarize himself with the environment in the research institute and introduced him to what he needed to do every day, which was nothing more than feeding the elves, organizing report materials, cleaning experimental equipment, etc.
But what puzzled Zhao Chen was that Dr. Aoki was not in the research institute today.
Seeing this, Luo Shan explained: "Dr. Aoki went to the city to hold a seminar today and should not be back until later."
Zhao Chen nodded. Although the Aoki Research Institute is large, there are relatively few people here. After walking around for a long time, he only saw a dozen people in total. Except for a few cooking aunts and sweeping aunties, there were not many people.
Personal.
After getting familiar with the environment, Zhao Chen left the research institute, and Luo Shan asked him to come back to work tomorrow.
Zhao Chen had no objection to this.
After this part-time job was finalized, he has since become a person with a monthly income of over 10,000 yuan.
Junior trainers and junior breeders will receive monthly subsidies, plus the salary here, the total is twelve thousand.
The money is used to raise the two elves Naughty Panda and Huhu, which is enough for the time being.
In addition to these, Zhao Chen still has some money in his bank card, but he does not plan to use the money now. He promised Zhao Jin before that he would leave it to her to buy a starter elf next year.
After leaving Aoki Research Institute, Zhao Chen went to the Trainers Association.
The fifth floor of the association, Ecological Park.
The keeper naturally knew Zhao Chen, and he greeted with a smile: "You are finally back. During the days when you were away, that ugly fish would come out of the water and look at the gate every day!"
"That's it..." Zhao Chen moved slightly in his heart, pushed open the glass door and walked in. Sure enough, as the breeder said, the ugly fish was floating on the water and looking this way.
When it saw Zhao Chen coming back, it immediately turned around and swam in the water pretending not to see it. It wasn't until Zhao Chen called it that it came out of the water again.
The ugly fish didn't want Zhao Chen to see it waiting for him to come back.
However, its little thoughts have been seen through by Zhao Chen...
"Long time no see!" Zhao Chen greeted, raising his hand to release the naughty panda and Hu Hu.
The ugly fish once again saw these two friends who did not dislike its ugly appearance, and happily puffed up bubbles in the water.
The reason why the ugly fish reacts like this is because it becomes very sensitive inside after being abandoned once.
It was afraid that Zhao Chen would abandon it again, so it could only pretend not to care about him.
In response, Zhao Chen shook his head secretly in his heart. Elves, like humans, are creatures with feelings and independent thoughts.
They will be happy, disappointed, sad, and desperate.
Thinking of this, Zhao Chen couldn't help but think of what Yang Guang said to him in Binhai City.
He gave up everything he had in order to save an elf.
Zhao Chen himself couldn't achieve that kind of spirit.
He is not the Virgin, but an ordinary high school student among all living beings. Everything he does now and in the future will be done on the premise of protecting his family and his own elves from harm.
…
After sitting on the grass in the ecological park for half an hour, Zhao Chen began to say goodbye to the ugly fish and agreed to come back to play with it tomorrow.
After that, he left the Trainers Association directly and took a taxi back home.
After dinner, Zhao Chen accompanied the naughty panda to the small park downstairs for a night run.
Seeing the little guy panting from exhaustion, Zhao Chen felt a little distressed. He wanted to remove the steel ring from the naughty panda's foot, but he refused.
Zhao Chen was secretly moved by this and decided to buy more food for it in the future to compensate it.
This little guy has been eating potato chips, lollipops, chocolates, and drinking milk, juice, and fat house water every day lately, besides visiting the ghost and animal area of Station B.
The elf's physique is different from that of humans. Even if it eats like this, Zhao Chen doesn't see it getting fat.
This makes Zhao Jin envious. In order to maintain her figure, she rarely eats high-calorie foods such as potato chips and chocolate.
However, Zhao Chen is not worried about this. He has a physique that girls envy and does not gain weight. No matter what he eats, he never gains weight and his weight has always been maintained at around 65kg.
…
Early the next morning, the National Day holiday ended.
Zhao Chen returned to school again with the naughty panda and Huhu.
Sure enough, as Deng Jian said, a college league will be held after the start of school.
Fortunately, the college league will be held in a week. Today, the school has brought together five participants in the college league to let them get to know each other in these seven days.
The college league is divided into two parts, the first part is the individual competition, and the second part is the five-person team competition.
Each time you win an individual match, you will get one point, and the points you get in a five-person team match will increase based on the number of elves left by the winning team.
In the Jiangcheng High School gymnasium, Zhao Chen looked at the other three people. He knew those people, and they were the top few in the previous school test.
Except for Zhao Chen and Deng Jian, the other three are:
Zhang Bin with Dark Crow, Shi Lei with Monkey Monster, and Lin Qingzhu with Bulbasaur.
