Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

In Principal Feng's office, the busy sound of the phone echoed in the silence. His hair had turned gray, revealing the traces of time.

He looked through the window at the teaching buildings outside that had experienced the baptism of the strange beast incident, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions. After a long silence, he let out a heavy sigh, as if he was helpless about this sudden change.

Qinghai City's performance in the alien beast incident was indeed remarkable, with almost no casualties, which earned it strong support from the alliance.

With the assistance of the alliance, all industries in Qinghai City quickly recovered, and in some ways even became more prosperous than before. This disaster should have brought destruction, but it unexpectedly stimulated the vitality of the city, giving Qinghai City a new lease of life.

However, Principal Feng's brow was furrowed because of the absence of several key students and teachers he had been looking forward to. He had promised to attract them to join at a high price, but now, these promising stars have chosen to leave one after another.

The absence of three transfer students and two top students made Principal Feng feel unprecedented pressure.

Qi Sunsun, a highly paid professional trainer, also mysteriously disappeared, and the new professor Shang Hefeng transferred to another place for some untenable reasons. These changes made Principal Feng confused and frustrated, and he didn't understand why this happened.

Monk Yishan's departure made Principal Feng feel even more puzzled. The words he left behind, "the mission has been accomplished", were puzzling.

Nanako Matsushima left because her family was worried about the safety of Qinghai City and called her back to the country.

Ye Feng's refusal to go to school was even more direct. He simply replied, "Principal, please let me know. I will be admitted." This left Principal Feng speechless.

Principal Feng tried to contact Lin Yi to find out what was going on, but Lin Yi's response was an irritable "Get lost", which made Principal Feng feel even more depressed and almost triggered his high blood pressure.

Everyone knows the relationship between Ruan Yaoyao and Lin Yi, and Lin Yi's absence almost means that Ruan Yaoyao will not appear either.

Principal Feng's face was filled with worry, and his eyes fell on the documents on his desk again. He originally thought that with these three strong players and the two trump cards of Lin Yi and Ye Feng, the school would have a chance to reach the top 16 in this year's Little Phoenix King Cup.

But now, the absence of these five people has made the school's prospects bleak, and it will be difficult for the remaining students to make a breakthrough in the preliminaries.

Principal Feng felt heavy-hearted, but he knew that as the principal, he had to find a solution to the problem and he needed to rethink his strategy.

Principal Feng paced back and forth in his office, thinking about countermeasures.

He knew that the performance of No.32 Middle School in recent years was not ideal, and this year's Xiao Feng Wang Cup was an opportunity to turn things around. If a student could enter the top 16 or even the top , then the reputation of No. Middle School and future teaching resources would be guaranteed.

On the contrary, if it fails, No. 1 Middle School may lose its current status and be surpassed by other schools, which will be a disastrous result.

After careful consideration, Principal Feng decided to humble himself and ask Lin Guochang for help.

Lin Guochang is Lin Yi's father, maybe he can persuade Lin Yi to return to school and continue to participate in the competition training. Principal Feng picked up the phone and dialed the number left by Lin Guochang.

Meanwhile, at the Qinghai City Gym's training ground, Lin Guochang is facing his own challenges as he attempts to combine Pokémon's Mega Evolution with powerful Z-Moves to explore the potential of the two.

Although Lin Guochang was able to easily maintain the status of five Mega Evolved Pokémon, he found that when he tried to use Z-Moves at the same time, his mental energy would quickly be exhausted, causing the attempt to fail. This made Lin Guochang feel an unprecedented challenge, but he was not discouraged.

"Forget it, forget it. I won't dwell on it." Lin Guochang muttered to himself as he gave up his current attempt. He stood up, brushed off the dust on his body, and shifted his attention to the Thorn Dragon King in the corner.

This new Pokémon has not yet fully integrated into the team, and during training has shown signs of not following commands and even being hostile to other Pokémon.

Lin Guochang thought to himself that he needed to quickly coordinate with his command of the Thorn Dragon and other Pokémon. He realized that this would take time and patience, and he couldn't rush for success.

Lin Guochang suddenly had an idea. He planned to take An Qing out for a trip during the upcoming long vacation. This would not only relax his mood, but also allow Thorn Dragon King to integrate into the team more quickly in a relaxed environment and enhance his closeness with them.

As for Lin Yi, Lin Guochang did not consider letting him join the trip. His child-rearing policy has always been to let him be free-range...

To put it bluntly, I just don't want to go out and have fun with a light bulb.

"Ding-ling-ling--"

Lin Guochang took out his cell phone in confusion. People who were close to him knew that he was in special training. Who would call him at this time?

Lin Guochang looked at the caller ID "Old Principal" and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Let's take a rest first."

Lin Yuanchang said to the Pokémon, answering the phone while preparing the energy cube to restore his strength.

"Hello? The old principal."

"Master Lin, how are you?"

"What's the matter with being the owner or not?" Lin Guochang leaned on the thick shell of the Blastoise and smiled reminiscingly.

"If you hadn't valued me in the past, I would have been living off my wife."

“…Master Lin is joking.

Principal Feng, who has been single for 70 years and still has not married, felt deeply hurt.

"By the way, what do you want from me?"

"Then I'll get straight to the point."

Principal Feng cleared his throat and stated his purpose.

"Didn't Lin Yi come to school recently? I want to ask if something happened to him. I called him this morning and his tone was a little bad."

"This morning?"

Lin Guochang remembered that after dinner yesterday, An Qing pulled him out of the house, saying that she wanted to help Yaoyao create opportunities. Combined with the noise he heard from the second floor when he went home for breakfast in the morning, he couldn't help but remain silent.

"Well, maybe it's because you disturbed his good deeds. It would be better if I didn't kill him with the Poké Ball."

Principal Feng: “???”

"Well, Lin Yi performed well in the alien beast invasion incident. After becoming an honorary trainer, doesn't he have a place in the recommended class?"

Lin Guochang coughed dryly and said.

"As long as he doesn't break the law, his admission quota will not be revoked, so he spends most of his time at home flirting with his childhood sweetheart."

Principal Feng was devastated once again.

"Master Lin doesn't seem to care about his child's premature love?"

"What's the big deal? I'm not that old-fashioned. I met my wife in middle school, and we started dating in high school. We got married right after we graduated from college."

"..."

Lin Guochang suddenly remembered something and said.

"No, I remember when Xiaoqing and I were dating, we were criticized a lot by you, the principal. The inspectors wrote so many letters that even the security guards at the door who invited parents to come know my dad."

Lin Guochang's tone was a little proud and boastful.

"Principal, you also said that premature love like ours is just a temporary impulse and will definitely break up in the future. Didn't expect that? Xiaoqing and I's child is about to take the college entrance examination."

Principal Feng: “…”

"I won't talk about the past. I hope that Master Lin can give Lin Yi some advice. At the very least, he has to take the exam, right? And there's also the Little Phoenix King Cup. I think Lin Yi's talents can be well displayed in the competition."

Hearing the words "Little Phoenix King Cup", Lin Guochang narrowed his eyes unconsciously. He probably knew the reason why Principal Feng made this call.

"Got it, old principal. I will talk to Lin Yi about this."

Lin Guochang had no one to agree to. It was the worst thing to make decisions about other people without their permission, even if they were his parents.

Principal Feng understood Lin Guochang's position and knew that saying anything more would be futile, so the two of them exchanged a few brief words and ended the call.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Guochang fell into deep thought. He took out a crumpled cigarette from his pocket and prepared to put it in his mouth.

This action seemed to trigger some kind of reaction from the Pokémon in the training ground. Their eyes were fixed on the cigarette in Lin Guochang's hand. Water streams began to condense on their bodies, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Lin Guochang was startled by the Pokémon's reactions. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he was obviously surprised by this sudden reaction.

He said to the Pokémon with some dissatisfaction, "Xiaoqing asked you to watch me quit smoking and you did it? I am your trainer, she is your trainer?"

The Blastoise seemed to be defending itself. It waved its big hand, indicating that it was also helpless. But in this house, who dared to disobey the orders of the mistress?

There was a hint of helplessness in its eyes, as if to say: "Since the trainer won't stop, we have no choice but to take action."

Suddenly, a loud noise and Lin Guochang’s scream were heard in the training ground: “Boom——”

"Fuck, are you serious? Don't use the high-pressure cannon, it could kill people! What the hell? I don't mean for you to use the Water Pledge!"
