Pokémon: Thunder Shatters the Darkness

early morning.

Yang Xiao, who had just finished taking a shower, wiped the water stains on his hair with a towel, picked up the hair dryer beside him, and blew it on his wet apprentice Xiong.

The latter was sitting at the table with a look of enjoyment on his face.

bang bang bang-

A knock at the door attracted their attention.

"Please come in."

Swah——

After swiping the door open, Jigglypuff, holding the magnetic card, waved excitedly at Yang Xiao, then gently patted the cart in front of it.

On top are various pastries and kettles.

"auspicious!"

"Morning for you too."

Yang Xiao looked at it with a smile and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Yuanyuan."

Not hard.

Jigglypuff's face was filled with excitement.

The Chappa Egg Hotel chain will provide each guest with a special waiter as standard.

That is, these Jigglypuff eggs.

This kind of work doesn't tire them out at all.

If the customer's Pokémon suffers some minor injuries, Chansey can use its own moves to help it recover its strength to a certain extent.

Although it costs a little more to stay here than in a normal hotel, overall, it is a good value for money option for trainers who come out to explore.

Pushing the cart to the door, Jilidan pointed at the cakes and looked up at Yang Xiao: "Jili?"

"Thank you."

Yang Xiao took the cart and said with a smile, "Miss Yuanyuan is indeed an excellent Jiggerjack."

"Gee...Gee!"

Jigglypuff covered her cheek, feeling a little shy.

The bear apprentice looked at his trainer in silence.

You're exuding charm everywhere, right?

"Stay and have breakfast with us."

After placing the cakes on the table, Yang Xiao opened the lid of the kettle, sniffed it, and then continued to say to the Jiggly Egg:

"My apprentice bear and I can't finish all these."

There is steaming milk tea in the kettle.

"auspicious……"

Jigglypuff was a little hesitant, and looked tentatively at the pastries with his little eyes.

This does not meet the standards of an excellent employee!

but…

If you just eat a few pieces, it should be fine, right?

Looking at Jilidan with a conflicted look on his face, Yang Xiao's lips curled up.

As if he had guessed what the other person was thinking at the moment, he said directly: "No problem, just give it a taste."

Yeah...that's right!

Jigglypuff thought about it and a bright smile appeared on his face.

The whole breakfast atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

Apprentice Bear took a bite of pastry, and Jilly Egg took a bite of pastry.

The former drank milk tea, and the latter just picked up the cup and took a sip.

You can see it.

Even if it chooses to "degenerate" temporarily, it always remembers its identity as an "employee".

Yang Xiao has no interest in pastries.

After simply tasting two pieces, Yang Xiao returned to the bedroom in the guest room, took out his cell phone and sat on the bed.

After scanning the daily news as usual, he began to search for the route to the Cultivation Palace.

Soon.

Yang Xiao put down his phone, thinking about something.

The location of the Cultivation Palace in the Northern Province is somewhat unique.

It is not built in the city, nor on any land, but is located on the "Beihai", one of the four seas of China, adjacent to this province and city.

There is only one way to get there.

That is to go through the sea bridge that was specially built for this purpose at a huge cost by the Northern Province.

No wonder it’s said to be difficult to get in.

He is really willing to spend money.

The cultivation palace in the Northern Province covers nearly five miles of sea surface. It is three stories high and contains dozens of simulated ecological areas for different environments.

On land, this kind of architecture is not surprising.

But when placed on the sea, it is hard not to make people sigh.

In the breeding palace, you can see a complete and large population of Pokémon, and even three forms of quasi-god Pokémon with their own ecosystem.

Looking at the time, Yang Xiao made up his mind.

Go early and come back early.

Dialing the phone number sent by Huo Jun, Yang Xiao silently waited for the call to be connected.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is unavailable..."

Yang Xiao slowly moved the phone away from his ear.

He looked at the screen of his phone quietly, somewhat silent.

Dial again.

"Sorry……"

After hanging up the phone, Yang Xiao took a deep breath.

Suddenly he laughed out loud.

If you enter the game with your own body, you will win half the battle.

Eat eight popsicles in a row just for this April Fools' joke?

OK OK.

Huo Jun, it turns out that you are the best in the battle class.

at this time.

Yang Xiao's cell phone suddenly buzzed.

His eyes moved down and landed on the number on the screen that should have been an empty number.

A guess came into his mind.

Could it be...

"Hey?"

A cold voice came from the phone: "Who is this?"

Yang Xiao was silent for a moment, then said, "Hello, I am Mr. Huo's student, and he gave me your mobile phone number."

"Oh……"

There was a pause on the phone, and then he said, "Is your name Yang Xiao?"

"it's me."

"Well, then I understand."

The person on the phone continued: "Huo Jun told me... Sorry, I was just about to answer the call when you hung up."

"Yes……"

Yang Xiao pursed his lips: "Mainly because I didn't expect there would be such an abstract phone ringtone."

There was silence on the other side of the phone for a moment.

She didn't expect that someone would say it so directly.

half an hour.

"Cough cough."

He cleared his throat twice on the phone and pretended to be calm, "Please tell me your location. The Cultivation Palace does not allow private cars to enter. I will send a car to pick you up."

"Okay, I'm staying at the Happy Egg Hotel in Nanguan District now. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, it's not hard. It's estimated to arrive at the store in 20 minutes... This is what we should do."

Done.

The person on the other end of the phone hung up as if running away.

Yang Xiao pinched his nose and laughed.

I was the same. I should have thought of it first, but I was fooled by the ringtone.

Is it because life has been too comfortable recently?

Leave the bedroom.

Looking at the two Pokémon who were full and leaning on the table with a satisfied look on their faces.

Yang Xiao put on his clothes and carried his backpack: "Let's go, Disciple Bear."

Apprentice Bear jumped off the seat with difficulty.

Jilidan stared at Yang Xiao, and seemed to be gesturing something with his hands.

“No check-out.”

Passing by Jilidan, Yang Xiao straightened his hat and said, "See you tonight!"

"auspicious!"

Jigglypuff also waved goodbye to him.

After eating, it’s time to clean the house.

Taking the elevator to the first floor, Yang Xiao and his disciple Xiong sat directly on the sofa in the corner, waiting for the cultivation palace to send a car over.

Maybe it’s because it’s early morning.

There were quite a few people checking in and out on the first floor.

"Hey, look at him, is he that internet celebrity?"

"Which one?"

"The one who participated in a competition in Henghai City and was photographed giving a speech at school afterwards!"

Listening to the faint sounds around him, Yang Xiao pretended not to hear them. He picked up his bear disciple, who was so full that he could hardly climb onto the sofa, and placed him on his lap.

"Can you eat too much cakes?"

Yang Xiao tapped his disciple Xiong's nose and said in a disdainful manner, "You don't look like a legend at all now."

Apprentice Bear smacked his lips, still wanting more.

Never mind, the most important thing is to have enough food and drink.
