Pokémon: Gyarados Evolution

Shenhe Town is the smallest in the entire Sinnoh region.

It is similar to Pallet Town. It also has a famous research institute. In addition, the existence of the relics that bear the traces of time makes the whole town pay special attention to security issues and is very strict.

Jon came here with Zhulan. Because he was brought here by Zhulan himself, when he entered Shenhe Town, he was not strictly interrogated by the guards like others, but was allowed to pass smoothly.

Mi Lei stood at the edge of the grassland, raised her head slightly, and took a deep breath. The fresh air instantly filled her chest, making her face involuntarily show a satisfied expression. Then she said with a comfortable face:

"The air here is really fresh, without the smell of car exhaust and noise in big cities."

Jon stood quietly aside, his eyes also fell on the picturesque scene in front of him. Occasionally, there were a few breezes blowing, causing the grass leaves to sway gently. He couldn't help but sigh softly:

"I find that every time I go to a new place, I can't help but imagine settling down there."

Da Yue heard Jon's words, smiled faintly, and responded jokingly: "You think it's beautiful. You can't just come here casually and stay if you want. After all, every place has its own rules."

After all, Shenhe Town rarely has outsiders stepping into this land on weekdays.

Most of the people living here have taken root here for generations, and have lived and multiplied in this town for generations. Outsiders have become rare guests for them.

As he spoke, Da Yue cast his eyes on Zhu Lan's back not far away, and after a slight pause, he continued: "I'll take you to Zhu Lan's home first, so that everyone can find a place to rest first."

After Zhu Lan entered the town, she did not walk towards her home. She hurriedly walked towards the northwest, where there was a history research institute.

In that history research institute, there was a highly respected Dr. Mustard Orchid.

Moreover, she had a special identity, that is, Zhu Lan's grandmother.

Slowly reaching out her hand, gently pushed open the slightly heavy door of the institute, and with a slight "creaking" sound, the door was slowly opened.

In the research institute, several young people were busy in front of the instruments with full concentration. Some of them were carefully adjusting the parameters of the instruments, while others were concentrating on staring at the computer screen and analyzing important data.

After hearing the sound of the door opening, they all cast their eyes over.

"It's Miss Zhulan who is back!"

One of the young men shouted in surprise first, and then several other young people also smiled, hurriedly put down their work, and greeted her enthusiastically.

At this moment, a beautiful boy with green hair, with a slightly lazy pace, also walked over from inside.

As he walked, he yawned loudly, his sleepy eyes telling of his previous fatigue. Then he looked at Zhulan, "Zhulan, I can leave now."

Zhulan just nodded gently, with a faint expression, and replied softly: "Yeah."

"Li Zi, is grandma in the institute now?"

Zhulan first politely spoke to the beautiful boy with green hair, and then turned her eyes to a short-haired woman beside her.

The woman called Li Zi heard Zhulan's question and immediately responded: "The doctor just attended an academic conference and is now in the backyard."

"Okay."

After Zhulan got a definite answer, she responded briefly, and then walked quickly towards the backyard.

The scale of this institute is actually very large. After walking through the front hall, you can see a huge courtyard in the back.

The courtyard is a different world, containing a variety of natural environments.

Grassland, mountains, a forest, a clear pool, etc.

Most of the Pokémon living in this courtyard are owned by the researchers working here.

In addition, there are some wild Pokémon taken in by Dr. Mustard Orchid. Zhulan often chooses to live here when she doesn't have a companion around her.

Zhulan walked to the familiar Pokémon with a smile from the heart, greeted them one by one, touched the head of one, patted the body of another, just like meeting old friends who haven't seen each other for a long time.

At this time, an old man with beautiful chestnut hair slowly walked out.

The old man looked very energetic,She was wearing a clean and tidy white coat, and she looked particularly dignified.

She had a kind smile on her face, which contained endless love and care.

Dr. Mustard Orchid

"Zhulan, you are finally back?" The old man spoke first.

"Grandma."

Zhulan heard the voice and hurried to the direction of Dr. Mustard Orchid. When she came closer, she bent slightly and nodded respectfully.

Dr. Mustard Orchid looked at her graceful granddaughter in front of her, and her smile became even stronger. She smiled and said, "Come in, tell grandma how long you can stay this time?"

In fact, if it weren't for Zhulan's super talent on the road of Pokémon trainer, Dr. Mustard Orchid would probably be reluctant to let her leave the research field anyway.

After all, Zhulan has a talent in research. If she has been focusing on this, she will surely achieve considerable success in academic research.

But there is no way. The inheritance of the Temple Clan needs capable people to take on the important task, and Zhulan happens to be the most suitable candidate, so the doctor let her go on the road of trainer.

"I don't know, grandma. Recently, the Galaxy team has been acting frequently, always making some disturbing noises. It feels like they are planning something big. So I plan to stay at home for a while, so that I can always pay attention to the movements."

Zhulan frowned slightly, with a trace of worry on her face.

"That's good."

Dr. Mustard heard that, and smiled even more. The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes seemed to be full of relief. She then asked, "I heard that the boy Dai Yue also came together?"

"Grandma, not only Dai Yue, but also two friends came together." Zhulan answered truthfully.

"It's rare to find someone you can call a friend."

Dr. Mustard Orchid slightly widened her eyes, her eyes full of curiosity. She knew that her granddaughter was a bit cold and always kept a certain distance from others. Those who could be recognized as friends by her must be unique.

Thinking of this, Dr. Mustard Orchid became more and more curious, wondering what kind of two people could catch Zhulan's eye, and she wished she could meet them right away.
