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

"Lin Yi, what's wrong with you?"

Ruan Yaoyao gave him a concerned look. He was sitting there normally, but for some reason he suddenly started shaking all over.

"......fine."

Lin Yi answered softly while rubbing his arms vigorously, his face full of suspicion.

What was going on? Why did I suddenly feel a bone-chilling chill? Could it be that this chill came from my father-in-law's murderous intent?

As for why Lin Yi was so eager to leave Qinghai City immediately, the reason was actually very simple - just now, he saw the message that Ruan Yaoyao sent to Ruan Tianli.

Just looking at the previous words that are easy to misunderstand, it is really hard not to let people imagine too much, or even create an inexplicable huge pressure.

Although Ruan Yaoyao gave an explanation later, Ruan Tianli never responded from beginning to end.

This made Lin Yi think of a possibility: Maybe when Ruan Tianli saw the first few words, he was so excited that he accidentally crushed the phone, causing him to not see the explanation at all.

Of course, this was just Lin Yi's personal guess. However, even so, he still thought it was wise to go out and avoid the limelight at this moment.

After all, if Ruan Tianli really misunderstood these words, given his temper, he would definitely go to Lin Yi's house to settle the score, and might even tear him to pieces (no kidding)!

Calculating the time, the plane will be landing soon.

Before Lin Yi left, he asked Ye Feng if he was interested in the Little Phoenix King Cup. Ye Feng replied that he was, but he planned to follow the path recommended by the school and would not go with Lin Yi.

The final destination of this flight is Liaoyang City, which is famous for brewing fine wine, and the Grass-type Gym that Lin Yi wants to challenge is located here.

When the plane landed steadily on the runway, accompanied by the broadcast in the cabin, the two stepped out of the cabin door and officially set foot on this unfamiliar land.

As soon as I walked out of the airport, a biting cold wind blew in my face.

After all, the climate in Qinghai City is quite different from that here, but fortunately they had prepared in advance and brought enough cold winter clothes, so they were not affected too much.

"Let's check in at the hotel first, then go to the Pokémon Center to check the status of the Pokémon, take a short rest and then find a restaurant to eat."

Lin Yi, dragging his suitcase, suggested to Ruan Yaoyao beside him.

Ruan Yaoyao naturally had no objection to this.

"Okay," she responded softly.

Challenging a gym is by no means as simple as it is portrayed in games and anime, and people can't just go and challenge whenever they want.

In fact, this requires advance reservations online, and only 20 places are available each day. After two attempts, they finally managed to get a chance.

Fortunately, currently only events such as the Little Phoenix Cup require participants to obtain badges by challenging gyms, so the number of participants is relatively small.

However, once the winter and summer vacations arrive, various large-scale competitions will be prepared one after another, and the number of people who need to challenge the gym will increase significantly.

Not only that, but before challenging a gym, one must go to the local government department to sign a special certification document.

Only with this certificate can you make an online reservation to challenge the gym.

In short, the whole process is far more complicated and tedious than the ideal settings in anime games, but it is more in line with reality.

After all, it is impossible for gym leaders to stay in the gym 24 hours a day, all year round, to accept challenges at any time, right? Not everyone is as energetic as Lu Wusong!

(Lu Wusong: Don’t cue me, thank you.)

The two people's certificates were obtained with the help of Lin Guochang's behind-the-scenes operation (bushi), and the appointment time is tomorrow.

In fact, as long as you take this certificate to the Pokémon Center, you can check in for free, with food and accommodation included.

As for why I didn't choose to stay at the Pokémon Center, it's not because the environment there is bad, but because there is 1. The sound insulation is not good. 2. There is no baby sterilizer (not a typo).

Those who understand will understand, and those who don't understand can do nothing about it. After all, if I explain it in detail, this chapter will not pass the review.

The two arrived at the hotel according to the plan they had made in advance, and after completing the check-in procedures, they went to their respective rooms to place their luggage.

Then, they went to the Pokémon Center together and deposited Pokémon such as Litten that were preparing to participate in the battle tomorrow there for a comprehensive inspection.

When Litten asked Lin Yi to leave his phone with him to keep him company, the two ignored him and walked straight out of the Pokémon Center.

Afterwards, they casually walked into a restaurant, but then something unexpected happened.

"The thing is, the biggest feature of our restaurant is the battle. If you want to sit down and enjoy the food, you must defeat our staff."

The waiter, dressed in a suit and tie, had a professional smile on his face and his eyes fell on the young couple in front of him.

There is a simple fighting field in the center of the restaurant, surrounded by customers who are eating and watching the fierce duel on the field with interest.

Coincidentally, at this moment, the contest between a teenager and a restaurant employee in the stands has also been decided.

Although the Iron-faced Ninja he sent out had increased its speed to the limit, unfortunately he was still defeated by Bulbasaur's quick-reacting vine whip.

"In my opinion, you two might as well try the two-player mode. If you win, you can enjoy a 20% discount!" the waiter continued to suggest.

"..."

Looking at the aggrieved boy holding the rain-winged moth that had lost its ability to fight, and then looking at the guests who were pointing fingers and talking about the boy, Lin Yi and Ruan Yaoyao exchanged glances, turned around in tacit understanding, and left without looking back.

I just wanted to have a simple meal, who would have thought that this would happen? I didn't come here to be a monkey and be played with by others!

It would be fine if the fight was just a formality, but the staff member actually used his real skills and beat the boy mercilessly in front of so many people. He was simply ruthlessly rubbing his face on the ground! Does he have no face?

How can a restaurant like this be able to operate on such a large scale, and there is a rule that if you can't win, you can't eat. I really don't know how they got into this bad habit!

The boy sighed regretfully and stroked the unconscious Rain-wing Moth.

"The highest difficulty level battle is really hard to win. It seems that I won't be able to get the Rem Bride Limited Edition Black Silk Leg Ring Collector's Edition figure as a reward."

Lin Yi stopped.

"Lin Yi, what's wrong?"

Ruan Yaoyao looked at Lin Yi, who was standing there, not knowing what he was thinking, and asked in confusion.

Lin Yi silently took out the Poké Ball and said seriously, "I suddenly feel that the design concept of this restaurant is great. You can not only watch the battles here, but also enjoy the food. And while dining, you can also practice your trainer command ability, killing three birds with one stone."

"But..." Ruan Yaoyao hesitated.

"Alas"

Lin Yi waved his hand and said, "We will all participate in the Little Phoenix King Cup later anyway, so it's not a bad thing to get in touch with others' attention here first."

"but……"

"It's a good opportunity for us to play doubles against each other to improve our fighting chemistry."

"that……"

"Look at the results of this match. The staff here are all top-notch! I declare this to be the best restaurant in Liaoyang City!"

"..."

Ruan Yaoyao took a look at the fickle Lin Yi's face and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Then why don’t you put down Zeraora’s Poké Ball and Z-Band first!
