New Years Eve in Pokémon World

Chapter 5 The real material of silk scarves

During the Chinese New Year, the most popular fruit may not be the sugar orange, but it is absolutely impossible not to have the sugar orange.

In the monitoring room, everyone stood up and stared at the carton of oranges with serious expressions.

"This is...yellow blue orange fruit!"

Blue orange fruit, also known as orange orange fruit, looks like a big blue orange. If eaten by wild Pokémon, it can relieve physical strength and injuries. Although it cannot relieve much, it is still very important at critical moments.

Although they had never seen this small orange fruit in the carton, the pitted skin was exactly the same as the blue orange fruit.

"It's amazing. There are also orange-yellow blue tangerines." Dr. Omu's expression was no less than that of an ordinary person who had eaten yellow watermelon for the first time. He stared at a carton of sugar tangerines as if he had seen something strange.

Mi Keli's face came close to the screen, and he nodded in surprise, "I don't know what it tastes like... There are so many in this box, can you leave one for us to taste after the test?"

Dr. Omu glanced at him and said nothing.

Youshu and Xiaoyao also squatted down and stared at the fruit curiously. Xiaoyao couldn't help blurting out, "It's an orange orange fruit!"

Matsuno was slightly amused, just thinking it was a child saying repeated words.

The owner Qianli became nervous and quickly corrected his daughter: "What nonsense are you talking about? This is called sugar orange!"

Then he squatted down very thoughtfully, picked up a sugar orange, and handed it to Matsuno directly. Matsuno didn't think much, peeled off the skin of the sugar orange, broke the pulp into two halves, gave one half to Yushu, and the other half to Matsuno. He picked up Xiaoyao, and then he held the orange peel and looked around for the trash can.

Dr. Odamaki and Master Qianli looked at each other with concern.

This blue tangerine fruit called sugar orange can actually be peeled and eaten!Fortunately, they were smart enough to let Matsuno eat one in advance, otherwise the secret would have been exposed.

In the Pokémon world, tree fruits are divided into hard-skinned fruits and soft-skinned fruits. The skins of hard-skinned fruits cannot be eaten, but all soft-skinned fruits can be eaten. Obviously, blue-orange fruits are the soft fruits that can be eaten by all.

Youshu carefully took a bite. After biting through the orange peel, the juice poured directly into his mouth. The pure sweetness without any trace of odor made the whole brain feel happy.

...It's not sour at all. Is there such a fruit in the world? !

The fruits here have not gone through complicated breeding and hybridization, and the sweetness is still sour. It is not like Blue Star, which has spent many years of crossbreeding, grafting, and cultivating super sweet fruits.

Anyway, after taking a bite, Yushu just wanted to sing about conquest.

Xiaoyao was the same, with her mouth bulging and her eyes staring, staring at the orange segment in her hand with a look of disbelief on her face. Then she quickly squatted down and took out a new orange from the cardboard box, with an addictive expression on her face.

It's over, one of Sugar Juice was poisoned.

Across the screen, Dr. Omu and Mikri held hands behind their backs, feeling uncomfortable watching the two children eating happily but not being able to eat themselves.

"Looking at them like this, it's definitely not hard to eat."

"you're right."

"..."

The two were silent, and finally swallowed in unison.

……

In the surveillance footage, the Qianli Pavilion owner's house seemed happy and happy, but when Xiaoyao picked up the second sugar orange, Matsuno quickly stopped him.

"Wait! Don't eat it yet!"

Matsuno's voice frightened Youshu, and Xiaoyao almost stuffed the second orange into her mouth. Youshu became anxious and took the orange out of her mouth.

Xiaoyao bit the air, almost biting her own finger, and then stared at Youshu with a blank look on her face.

Youshu, who grabbed the orange, did not turn around to look at Xiaoyao who was about to get angry, but looked at Matsuno nervously, not sure why he called for a stop temporarily.

Doesn’t it mean we can’t eat more of this fruit?Or will you be poisoned if you eat two or more of this fruit?

However, Matsuno also had a shocked expression, "I mean if you eat too much fruit before a meal, you will not be able to eat it... Yushu, you can't steal other people's fruits."

Youshu: "..."

That's it?

Matsuno squatted down with an expression of disapproval, peeled another sugar orange and handed it to Xiaoyao, "If you eat too many oranges, you won't be able to eat dumplings for a while... By the way, Uncle Qianli, why don't you have any at home?" Isn’t it a little too early to have New Year’s Eve dinner at noon?”

Xiaoyao swallowed a whole sugar orange in her mouth with difficulty. Just when she was about to ask what delicious dumplings were, Matsuno changed the subject.

Very good, I learned some new information. The banquet to celebrate the festival is eaten at night. This is what the Elf Alliance has thought about. In their side, most of the festivals are celebrated in the evening.

But what is a "dumpling"?

Although Matsuno just said it casually, his tone seemed to be very sure that there was such a thing as "dumplings" in their family, which meant that "dumplings" were most likely a traditional food during the Spring Festival.

That's the end of it.

Dr. Odamaki and Master Qianli had no idea. They looked at each other and then looked at Mitsuko at the same time.

Mitsuko: "..."

Mitsuko sweat dropped immediately.

"Because I heard you were coming, I made preparations in advance, haha." Although the clothes on her back were already wet, Mitsuko remained calm and smiled very gracefully.

Mitsuko, who is not socially anxious and even enjoys making friends, experienced for the first time what it feels like to be socially anxious.

"And it just so happened that everyone got together and worked together." Mitsuko added, and then tried her best to put on the most sincere smile.

Matsuno was stunned. His intuition told him that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it. However, he still very much agreed to Mitsuko's invitation to work. He rolled up his sleeves on the spot and said, "I can help make dumplings."

This is what Mitsuko was waiting for!

“That’s so grateful!”

Matsuno was a little flattered. As an orphan, he was quite a pleaser. He waved his hands quickly and said, "You're welcome. I'd be very grateful if you invited me over." As he said that, he walked towards the kitchen.

This is a standard Western-style kitchen, so clean and tidy that it doesn’t look like it has been used. This kind of imitation kitchen makes Matsuno a little uncomfortable who is used to cooking in a small and full kitchen in a rental house. .

But since he had agreed, he had no choice but to keep going. Matsuno found flour with the help of Mitsuko and started kneading the dough. Mitsuko looked at it and saw that the previous steps were no different from making bread.

The owner Qianli came in from the kitchen, winked at his wife, and motioned her to go to the living room.Mitsuko nodded, and as soon as she went out, she found that the large box of sugar oranges was missing more than half.

A staff member of the Elf Alliance lurked outside the window. After seeing Mitsuko, he quickly waved her out.

It wasn't until the two of them walked some distance away from the house to make sure Matsuno wouldn't notice anything unusual that the staff revealed the reason for his visit.

"Ms. Mitsuko, we hope to get that silk scarf, please be considerate..."

Well, as expected, she couldn't keep that silk scarf.

Mitsuko showed a pained expression, "After you finish studying it, can you return it to me?"

The staff of the Elf Alliance showed hesitation, "I'm sorry, ma'am, we can't guarantee..."

Although it was a pity, Mitsuko still cooperated very well and took out the silk scarf.

"Okay, okay, then after you study it, you must tell me what material this scarf is made of."

Several researchers have determined this issue after discussion, but did not analyze it in depth.

"I can tell you now." So the staff here feel that it doesn't matter if they reveal a little bit.

"It's the silk spun by some kind of caterpillar."

Mitsuko: "..."
