As the afternoon passed quietly, Xiaogang also completed his "mission". He walked out of the flower shop with an exceptionally firm figure.

In his hand, there was a shining Poké Ball, reflecting the surrounding greenery and emitting a mysterious glow.

Xiaozhi was a little curious. He walked up and asked, "Xiaogang, have you captured a new partner?"

Xiaogang nodded gently, with a gentle smile on his face. He carefully released the Lotus Leaf Boy. The Pokémon with the green lotus leaf on its head was more lively and lovely in the sun.

He said, "Yes, this child has a unique personality. I am worried that if it is alone, it may be treated unfairly. Therefore, I decided to capture it and make it my partner to grow together on our journey."

Xiaogang then told the origin of the Lotus Leaf Boy in detail.

The reaction of this Lotus Leaf Boy is always one step slower than others, which makes its kind a little repulsive to it. If it is left alone, there is a chance that it will be ruthlessly bullied at some point in the future.

At that time, Xiaogang heard it and felt pain in his heart. He could not sit idly by, so he lent a helping hand and gave Lotus Leaf Boy a new home with his Poké Ball.

As the sun set, the afterglow sprinkled on Xiaozhi, Xiaogang and Xiaoyao. They carried the lightness of the journey and moved forward with firm steps.

"Kanarz City, a prosperous city located in the western part of the Hoenn region, is famous for its perfect blend of nature and science. It is like a shining pearl, embedded in the embrace of greenery."

"It is adjacent to the majestic Meteor Falls in the north, as if the spiritual energy between heaven and earth converges here; it is connected to the Orange Forest in the south, an oasis of life, with four seasons like spring, birds singing and flowers blooming; the Ka-Green Tunnel in the east is like a mysterious passage through time and space, closely connecting Kanarz City with the outside world."

"In this vibrant city, the most famous is Devon Company, where scientific research leads the trend of the entire Hoenn region. And next to Devon Company is the Kanarz Gym, a hall that symbolizes glory and power. The owner of the gym has become the existence that countless trainers look up to with his outstanding wisdom and powerful strength."

At this moment, Xiaogang holds a map in his hand, and the detailed lines and markings on it depict their future path.

He whispered, "Who wrote these slogans? He is a strange man who can write so many."

Xiaoyao came forward, tiptoed again, and quietly observed every detail on the map.

She heard Xiaogang's sigh and couldn't help but get closer again, scanning the map, looking for the answer.

Soon, she revealed the answer, with a hint of surprise in her voice: "This seems to be a book published by the Kanaz College Journalism Society, which likes to pile up gorgeous words."

"Kanaz College Journalism Society? What is that place?" Xiaozhi was curious after hearing Xiaoyao's voice. He wanted to know more about these unknown things.

Xiaoyao smiled and explained, "There is a famous college in Kanaz City, called Kanaz College. It is the pride of this city and has cultivated countless outstanding talents. In this college, there is a club called the Journalism Club."

"This travel guide to the Hoenn region is a publication of the Journalism Club. My family and I bought it when we moved here. The content inside is very detailed and very helpful for us to understand this area."

"Eh? So there is such a club in the school?"

Xiaozhi tilted his head slightly and caught some new revelations in the abyss of contemplation.

He had been wandering between the green fields and the rivers and lakes in Pallet Town since he was a child. He knew very little about the life in the college. His daily life was illuminated by the sun and blown by the breeze, full of carefree laughter.

He didn't know much about the school. It was only after Li Qingfeng's explanation that he knew some general information about the college.

When the three words "Journalism" came into his ears, Li Qingfeng's face changed slightly, as if he was shrouded by an invisible emotion, and his brows were unconsciously knitted together.

A complex light flashed in his eyes, as if he was recalling some unpleasant past events.

Xiaozhi keenly captured Li Qingfeng's emotional fluctuations, and couldn't help but feel a little confused and worried. He asked softly with concern: "Brother Qingfeng, what's wrong with you? Your expression looks a little wrong."

Li Qingfeng shook his head gently, trying to shake off the haze in his heart, his voice was a little tired: "It's okay, it's just that where I am, there are some people studying journalism. In order to pursue higher traffic and attention, they will use some exaggerated or even false headlines to attract the attention of others."

He knows the power of news and knows thatIt can guide public opinion and shape public views, but some people use this power to distort facts and create false news for short-term traffic and attention. This behavior makes him feel deeply worried.

These people are good at using the power of words to weave gorgeous illusions, and use exaggeration, hype, and even fabrication to integrate prejudice and bias into news reports.

They are in control and unpredictable, as if they are magicians who distort and rewrite the truth, and what they finally present to the public is the residual information based on lies.

Some journalism students do not hesitate to abandon their conscience and moral bottom line and drown the truth behind the facts in a false smokescreen. For short-term exposure and superficial success, they perform a series of scams and illusions on the stage of news.

Today, in this prosperous Pokémon world, Li Qingfeng wanders in the online world, and he can't help but see some trainers defending Team Rocket on the online platform.

These trainers believe that Team Rocket's behavior can be whitewashed, or at least understood as having some reasonable motives.

Their words were like a sharp sword, cutting through people's original perception of Team Rocket, and making Qingfeng Li marvel at the diversity and complexity of this world.

To be honest, in this Utopian world of Pokémon full of miracles, Qingfeng Li originally thought that those complex phenomena such as buying water army, whitewashing, and public opinion pressure that only appeared in movies and TV series would never appear in the corner of this world.

What he never expected was that these things beyond his cognition actually emerged quietly in this world.

This made Qingfeng Li sigh that the complexity of the world was far beyond his imagination.

However, these did not cause much trouble.

Most of them were sensible people and were not misled by public opinion.
