Pokemon: Pick up Eevee at the start

At one o'clock in the afternoon, in Xia Chen's temporary dormitory.

After the "housewarming banquet", the three chatted on the sofa, while the elves played and frolicked in the house.

Xianbu and Xiaoduolong are more outgoing, and they soon get into trouble with the Nemo elves they just met.

As I said before the meal, Nemo really brought all six of her elves here for dinner.

Fortunately, the dormitory that Kravel lent out was relatively large, otherwise it wouldn't be able to accommodate more than a dozen elves playing together in the living room.

Nemo is not a trainer specializing in certain attributes.

In addition to Babu Tubo, who is electric and fighting, her spirits also include the three magic masked cats of Partia, the steel-type dragworm, the maneyan werewolf in day form, and the soil that Xia Chen has only seen in this world. The evolution form of the dragon brother is Earth Dragon Festival, and Nian Meilong.

The six elves add up to eight attributes, which is a veritable multi-attribute trainer.

Xia Chen, whose mental strength has become more and more acute, can almost judge the strength of an elf by its breath.

As the leader of the Orange Academy and even the youth trainers in the entire Partia region, Nemo's strength is undoubtedly strong.

It is roughly estimated that the strongest Magic Mask Meow has the strength of an elite three-star.

In other words, if they were included in this Donghuang Youth Competition, they would basically be at the level of random killings.

Of course, this is just talking on paper. After all, Xia Chen also defeated several opponents who seemed to be several chips stronger than him in the competition.

Xia Chen felt more and more that it was the right choice to travel more. The internal qualifying competition of Shangjing University was almost no challenge for him now, unless Hu Yang was ranked.

But the same opponent will get tired of playing too much. New regions mean new adventures, new opponents, and new elves.

Thinking of this, Xia Chen suddenly looked forward to the challenge to the gang bosses of the Tianxing team for no reason.

…………

"Speaking of which, the [treasure hunt] for this semester will probably start next week. The [treasures] you found last semester were Earth King and Liangjilong. Does Mingyi have any goals this time?"

Nimo seemed to have a kind of emotion towards Mingyi that surpassed the feeling of caring for the younger generation, so she asked with concern.

"Yes, I want to start trying to challenge the gym."

Mingyi poked her chin with her finger, thinking slightly.

"As for the treasure."

She glanced somewhere, paused slightly, "I also have a goal, but I can't tell you this."

"Fine."

Nemo didn't dig into her carefree temper, she turned around and put her hands on Xia Chen's shoulder, "What about you, Xia Chen?"

Xia Chen took off Nemo's arm calmly, and replied, "Me? I'm not a student of your Orange Academy."

Nemo asked patiently, "It doesn't matter. Don't you have anything you want to gain when you travel?"

Xia Chen asked without thinking: "Isn't the growth and experience of traveling itself the biggest gain?"

"Well"

Nemo nodded frequently with brilliant eyes, "So that's the case. If you are asked this question by the principal in the future, you can use this answer!"

Xia Chen was speechless. It turned out that this guy kept asking why.

The three of them were chatting, and there was another call coming from Rotom on the phone.

Fairy Queen again?

Xia Chen took out his mobile phone to look, only to find that the number in the note was Kravel, he was slightly surprised, there was news of Suo Cailing so soon?

After answering the phone, Xia Chen greeted, "Hello, principal."

What came from the other end of the phone was Clavier's questioning voice, "I heard that you rode my motorcycle lizard on campus this morning?"

Xia Chen had no choice but to say, "...that's what happened."

Although he didn't know the school rules on the subjective level, but on the objective level he did go racing.

"My motorcycle lizard is a bit skinny, please take care of it."

Xia Chen originally thought that the headmaster would ask questions and even take back the motorcycle lizard, but he changed the subject and apologized for the motorcycle lizard.

"Well, thank you for your concern."

Although he knew that this was the principal's way of winning people's hearts, Xia Chen felt much more at ease.

"What's more, I heard from Nemo that you also participated in the action of [Eliminating Stars]. Regardless of success or failure, I would like to express my gratitude to you first. Ms. Yeci, the director of the school, is also very concerned about this matter. When necessary, she will will help you."

Yeci?

Xia Chen raised his eyebrows. He did his homework before coming to Padia, and Ye Ci is the current Padia champion.

"Okay, then thank you, Champion Ye Ci."

"The last thing, Suo Cailing's news has a clue."

Clavell knew how to whet the appetite, and Xia Chen said the last thing he cared about most.

"Well, I'm listening, please tell me."

"Several students have seen the traces of Suo Cailing in Yongguang City, but it is Suo Cailing in foot form, running very fast, and they have no intention of subduing Suo Cailing, so they just ignore it."

"I see, thanks for the clue."

"You're welcome, just call me if you have anything to do, and I wish you a pleasant trip in the Padia area."

After hanging up the phone, Xia Chen was lost in thought.

Brewing City?

…………

Although he got the clue from Suo Cailing, Xia Chen didn't leave for Yongguang City immediately.

Because of the enthusiasm for coins, Suo Cailing will inhabit places with many people.

Niangguang City is the second largest city in the Padia region, and it is also the city with the most advanced technology and the largest commercial circulation.

There is no special change. Basically, Suo Cailing will not leave this treasured place of Fengshui. There is no difference between going a few days earlier and a few days later. It is better to spend a few days to prepare well.

Suo Cailing is small in size and fast, because his characteristic is [escape], especially when he is running.

At that time, it will drill into the manhole covers that can be seen everywhere on the roadside, where will it go to find it?

So Xia Chen felt that he still had to make a subjugation plan. If he could outsmart him, it would be great.

Therefore, in the next few days, Xia Chen stayed in the dormitory and prepared Suo Cailing's subjugation plan, as well as preparations for the stardust battle.

Coupled with daily training, occasional battles with Nemo, and other trivial chores, the time came to March 6th, the day when the Orange Academy [treasure hunt] activity started.

On this day, thousands of students will set off from the school to go on adventures in various parts of Padia, looking for their own treasures.

Of course, this activity is not mandatory. There are still some students who choose to stay in the college to continue studying cultural courses, but it is still a minority.

Mingyi and Nemo are naturally two of the majority.

Mingyi will start her gym challenge journey from Yongguang City, "happens" to go with Xia Chen, while Nemo is going west alone, Xia Chen guesses that she is going to challenge Pina.

The three bid farewell at the square in front of the school, and parted ways.

The distance between Zhuotai City and Yongguang City is not too far, only two to three hundred kilometers.

So Xia Chen and Ming Yi did not directly take a plane or a train, but set off on a motorcycle lizard.

It has been more than half a year since I came to the Padia area. Of course, Mingyi also tamed a motorcycle lizard as a tool spirit when he entered the country.

The Motor Lizard is much easier to use than a motorcycle. Not only can it ride on rough and steep roads, but it can also interact with riders when they are bored.

Of course, it is not all advantages. The biggest disadvantage of the motorcycle lizard is the high "fuel consumption". It needs to consume half a box of energy cubes for 100 kilometers, and it is really unaffordable for non-trainers.

…………

The terrain in the southeastern coastal area of ​​Padia is mostly plains and hills, and the road is smooth.

So even when they are not in a hurry, but stop and go, Xia Chen and Mingyi are also "the city of speech at the morning, and the city that never sleeps at dusk".

There is something very strange about the world of elves. It is obvious that you were walking in the deserted and overgrown wilderness a while ago, and in the next second, you can see a bustling city full of high-rise buildings.

This sense of contrast is particularly strong in Yongguang City.

In Padia’s early spring, the night falls very early, before five o’clock, the sky is already dark, but the direction of Yongguang City is completely opposite.

With blue and white as the main tone, mixed with neon lights reflecting on the sky, before the sky is completely dimmed, it constitutes a future scene full of technological style.

This is the richest and most technologically advanced city in the Padia region, Niangguang City.

Xia Chen, who was walking on the streets of Yongguang City, could obviously find that this place was different from the Miare City he had been to, which had a similar city style. The cultural atmosphere here was stronger.

It is strange to say that this feature should be possessed by Miare City, which is the capital of Carlos, but it is Niangguang City that makes people feel more friendly.

The careful Xia Chen soon discovered the reason, which was the city promotional posters and videos that can be seen everywhere on the streets and alleys, even on the LED screens on high-rise buildings.

The content is very simple, and the whole process is a cute and beautiful girl's cuteness.

"Are the judges ready?"

On the big screen at the entrance of the bustling street, a cute girl wearing loose clothes, pink-blue hair, and two little magnetites that looked like hair accessories suddenly appeared on her head.

"The eye-catching grid catches your eyes, who is telling the story? It's me!"

"Good morning, afternoon and evening, hello Ciao~"

With the girl's movements, the little magnetite on top of her head also jumped, and the bangs tied in a bow on her forehead swayed lively, looking very cute.

The content behind the video is the lovely Miss Qishu introducing things related to Niangguang City.

With her energetic voice and cute but unaffected cute movements, the boring content is very easy to accept.

At least Xia Chen, who stopped for a while, had a general understanding of the general characteristics of Niangguang City and the attractions available to visit after watching the video.

…………

"Miss Qishu is very cute. No wonder Niangguang City hired her as the city's image ambassador. Her lively and lovely style goes well with the city."

Ming Yi, who watched the video together, said with emotion.

"Generally, I don't feel as cute as you."

Xia Chen commented lightly, then turned around and continued walking forward, without seeming to miss it at all.

"Eh, really?"

Ming Yi followed closely behind, although he said so, but his eyes were full of smiles.

Girls often don't care much about the truth of what they say, all they want is an attitude.

Xia Chen, who is well versed in this truth, said affirmatively, "Of course, strange trees are not my type."

However, when he said these words, he flashed Qishu's video twice in his mind.

Qishu is so cute, especially her shark teeth, hehehe.

It's decided, Niangguang Gym, I'm challenged!

Even though he thinks so, Xia Chen is definitely not in a hurry to challenge the gym directly when he is new here.

Strolling in the unique and gorgeous night scene of Yongguang City, Xia Chen and Ming Yi went to a well-received local elf restaurant for dinner following the guidance of the mobile phone Rotom.

Traveling is nothing more than a few things, such as scenery, food, and encounters.

The elf restaurant is naturally not a restaurant that uses elves as ingredients, but a restaurant that specializes in customizing food for elves that meets their physical needs.

Most of them will be customized according to the attributes of elves, and some high-end elf restaurants will even be subdivided into individual elves.

Xia Chen's elves are special, so he ordered according to their respective attributes.

The location of this restaurant is great, on the upper floor of the Yaoguang Tower, the tallest building in the city.

Through the glass curtain wall next to you, you can easily enjoy the panoramic view of Yongguang City.

The food is beautiful and delicious, and the dishes here are really good. Everyone was very satisfied with the first meal when they came to Niangguang City.

It was also rare for Xia Chen to simply enjoy this dinner as a diner rather than as a cook.

But the good mood didn't last long. Halfway through the meal, the noise from not far away attracted the attention of other people in the restaurant.

Xia Chen, who has keen hearing, was able to see the whole content of the noise.

…………

"Sir, the meal you paid is really not enough. You see, the amount you and your mastiff godfather spent was 2,386 elf coins, and we only received 2,000 banknotes."

The man dressed like a restaurant manager said politely.

The one who was arguing with him was a tall young man with long yellow-gray hair who was carrying a mountaineering backpack.

Maybe it was due to resentment in his heart, but his emotions were more agitated.

He repeated loudly: "I gave you two thousand and four for nothing, of which two thousand are banknotes and four hundred are coins, which are placed in your automatic payment machine!"

Perhaps in order to reflect the advanced technology of Yongguang City, this restaurant does not use the common manual or elf payment method, but has a special robot responsible for ordering, serving and paying.

Xia Chen, who eavesdropped on the gossip, shook his head secretly, wouldn't it be so troublesome to make an online payment?

Hey, this seems to be a good direction to start a business, so I stole that treasure from my previous life and named it Miaomiao Pay.

No way, this kind of software requires a huge number of users and relationships with banks and alliances, and it is troublesome and difficult to handle, so forget it

Xia Chen was thinking wildly, the quarrel over there was still going on.

The manager said softly: "We have checked that machine and there is no damage, so it is unlikely to exist."

The man with the backpack interrupted loudly, "So you think I escaped the order, right? I don't lack the four hundred elf coins. I can take out 40,000 or 400,000 now. I just want justice!"

Xia Chen secretly complained, good guy, this scene is almost like six children eating jelly.

"But the truth is, we really didn't receive the four hundred coins"

Xia Chen was taken aback by the manager's words, and he suddenly thought of something.

The missing coin. Ask for fortune?

After thinking for a while, Xia Chen said to Mingyi who was feeding the earth king in front of him: "Mingyi, Xianbu, eat first, I'll go over, Xanadu, Zoroak, come with me."

Although he didn't know why Xia Chen wanted to go there, Ming Yi still nodded, "I understand, you can go."

"Sana~"

"cable"

Xanadu and Zoroak stood up and followed Xia Chen in the noisy direction.

…………

"Sir, our restaurant is not short of the four hundred yuan, we just want to ask you to cooperate."

"I said, I have something urgent, I don't have this time to be investigated by you for nothing!"

Both of them are civilized people, and they haven't reached the stage of doing it yet, but anyone can feel that the smell of gunpowder in the air is getting stronger and stronger.

At this critical moment, a third person got involved.

"Excuse me, I'm the one who eats there."

Xia Chen pointed to the direction of his table and introduced himself.

The manager apologized and said immediately: "Sir, I'm sorry to disturb you and your elf's meal, we promise to solve this problem as soon as possible."

Xia Chen shook his head, "I didn't mean that, I'm just interested in this kind of strange thing, if you don't mind, how about I help?"

He pointed to Xanadu and Zoroark behind him, "As you can see, I am a trainer with fairly good strength, and the power of the elves may help a little."

This is not boastful, the elite trainer is already a strength that most ordinary people can't achieve in their lifetime.

Because just piling up resources is an extremely costly matter.

The manager nodded and said, "You must have heard it over there just now. According to what this gentleman said, the 400 yuan coins suddenly disappeared, but this gentleman happened to turn his back to the monitor when he paid. We can't argue now."

Xia Chen nodded in understanding, and added: "And this kind of thing has never happened in your restaurant before, and you are sure that the restaurant robot is not malfunctioning?"

The manager nodded helplessly in agreement.

"Is there a possibility that the customer gave the money, and the machine did only receive two thousand banknotes, but the four coins were stolen during the transaction?"

The manager frowned, puzzled and said: "But the trading time is very short, who has the ability to succeed without anyone noticing it?"

Xia Chen smiled slightly: "Elf, you only need simple hypnosis or the use of energy to deceive a human and a robot, it's easy, right?"

The backpacker also calmed down and joined the discussion, "I did feel a trance at the time, but I didn't have an elf around me during that time, except my mastiff godfather."

"As long as it's small enough to hide its body, and then the elf is interested in coins."

Facing the approving gazes of the two, Xia Chen paused slightly, and finally said the final deduction, "For example, Suo Cailing."

Seeing the two men's pensive expressions, Xia Chen understood that they probably believed in his own deduction.

"You should know that Suo Cailing likes to steal coins and is very flexible. If he stays here all the time, I'm afraid your business will be difficult to do. Just in time, I want to tame a Suo Cailing. How about we cooperate?"

Without thinking too long, the manager nodded in agreement with Xia Chen's proposal.

…………

Since the manager of the restaurant believed Xia Chen's deduction, the backpacker was also cleared of suspicion.

After all, it is really unrealistic for people who can spend in such high-end restaurants to escape orders for 400 yuan.

In contrast, Suo Cailing stole the four coins is obviously more reasonable and more likely.

Because he was in a hurry, he didn't participate in Suo Cailing's capture operation, but left in advance.

"Thank you for helping me out. My name is Paipa, and I'm a student of Orange College. How about adding a contact information, so we can contact you later?"

The backpacker, or so Paipa said before leaving.

Xia Chen did not refuse his kindness, and left behind his Bogaman.

Interestingly, he also has a mobile phone called Rotom, which is not yet on the market.

This made Xia Chen suspect that when Kravel gave him the mobile phone Rotom, he bragged about its credibility.

Of course, it is more likely that this guy named Paipa is not simple.

In short, after exchanging contact information, Paipa left in a hurry with his mastiff godfather.

And Xia Chen was able to start a plan to catch the coin thief with the restaurant manager.

"Suo Cailing usually puts it into its own treasure chest after stealing coins, and its most precious treasure chest will definitely be hidden in its habitat, so it should go back to put coins at this moment, or come over to continue stealing coins on the way."

The manager nodded in agreement with Xia Chen's analysis.

Although he didn't understand Suo Cailing's habits, since the guest's goal was to subdue Suo Cailing, he must have made no mistakes in his analysis, so he just nodded and it was over.

Xia Chen continued: "So, before Suo Cailing rushes back, we have plenty of time to prepare. The plan is very simple. I will pay the bill with many coins in a while, and wait for Suo Cailing to come forward, and then open the magic space. It can't escape."

The manager suddenly nodded, phishing law enforcement, simple but practical.

that is

"I heard that high-level moves such as Magic Space can only be learned by elves above gymnasium level. Where can I find them at this moment?"

The manager is a little worried, the gym-level elves are completely rare.

Rao is that his own restaurant has to receive hundreds of elves every day, and he can't see a few of them in a month.

Xia Chen smiled slightly, and took Shanaiduo who was standing behind him.

"My Xanadu will."

The manager of the restaurant was dumbfounded. This young man, who looked less than twenty years old, actually already had the strength of a gymnasium?

Xia Chen shrugged and did not answer.

…………

Of course, Xanadu does not have a gymnasium level, but this does not conflict with her magic space.

I know how to meditate, I can master super powers, what else can't be done by my elves?

Xanadu has mastered the move of magic space for a long time, but it is not suitable for his team, so he has not practiced much.

It is perfect to capture this kind of guy who is fast and has the characteristics of escaping.

Xia Chen didn't know how fast that Suo Cailing was, anyway, as long as it was faster than Xianbu and Niannianbao, it was enough.

Although it is a bit shameful to play more and less, everything is for research.

Back at the dining table, Xanadu and Xia Chen each released their mental power and began to monitor the entire restaurant.

Not long after, a small figure full of ghostly atmosphere appeared in the corner of the restaurant.

Xia Chen and Shanaido looked at each other and nodded slightly.

Here comes the fish.
