Pokémon: From Magikarp

"Lin Shi, Lin Shi..."

Meng Wan waved to Lin Shi excitedly.

As soon as he came out of the battlefield, Lin Shi saw Su Qimeng, Meng Ge and Meng Wan walking towards him together.

"Well done, I was right about you!"

Meng Wan was the first to run over, patted his shoulder, and said to Lin Shi with sparkling eyes.

"Haha, thank you very much for your encouragement."

Lin Shi gave a fake smile and cupped his hands.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner today."

"You can have this!"

Lin Shi's eyes lit up. It would be great to get it for free.

"Of course, let's go, you can choose any place." Meng Wan patted her chest and said generously.

Then she turned her head.

"Sister, Qimeng, let's go together."

Then a group of people walked out of the venue noisily...

At the same time, on the other side of the venue.

"How's the situation with Roentgen cats?"

Hearing Jin Yao's words, Fang Qi sighed.

"His life is not in danger, but...forcibly activating that kind of power may..."

Fang Qi's face darkened a little as he continued.

“It may leave sequelae…”

Jin Yao also sighed. When he saw Fang Qi using this trick on the court, he knew that no matter winning or losing, Fang Qi would be the one who suffered the biggest loss in the end. But he also knew Fang Qi's personality, and he would not be himself if he didn't use it.

"I probably won't be able to play in the final match against Roentgen Cat."

"I'm going to give it a good rest."

Fang Qi continued speaking, then he hesitated and finally spoke.

"Boss Jin, what do you think about Lin Shi?"

"Lin Shi?"

Jin Yao took a deep breath. Lin Shi's strength far exceeded his expectations. If the honey-collecting snake used the same trick it used on the stage again, he would have no good way to deal with it.

"No matter what, I will fight him well."

Jin Yao said seriously.

……

The fierce battle made Lin Shi a little tired. Fortunately, he did not have to fight the next day, so he came out of the house near noon.

"Hey, are you awake?"

Su Qimeng was sitting on the sofa, crossing her legs and watching TV. Like Lin Shi, she had no competition today.

Next to her, a Pokémon that looked like a girl in a white dress was also sitting on the sofa, with its legs crossed like its trainer, and looking up at Lin Shi.

This Pokémon is naturally Kirlia. Compared to the shy Ralts, it is now more ladylike and elegant.

"This is called conserving one's energy..." Lin Shi said with a yawn.

Su Qimeng rolled her eyes and continued.

"But I still want to congratulate you first. Congratulations on becoming famous."

"What do you mean?"

Lin Shi walked out of the kitchen with a cup of milk in his mouth.

"Here."

Su Qimeng raised her chin slightly and motioned Lin Shi to look at the TV, where the Baishan City TV station was broadcasting a news item.

Lin Shi took a look and saw an exaggerated huge poster on the screen. He and Jin Yao occupied each side of the poster, and there was a line of large and flamboyant characters written below - Baishan City's Strongest High School Student!

"Forehead……"

Lin Shi couldn't bear to watch it. Is this an awkward move?

"Now you are considered a celebrity in Baishan City. How do you feel?"

Su Qimeng lay on the sofa and teased Lin Shi.

"Haha, not very good."

"Oh, by the way, the final battle site is chosen to be the Battle Hall in the center of Baishan City, and I heard that the mayor will be there in person, so do your best."

Su Qimeng blinked quickly and mischievously.

Lin Shi spread his hands helplessly, sat down, touched Kirlia's head, and then asked.

"Where are my parents? Why can't I see them?"

"Uncle and aunt went out after dinner. I guess now is the right time for everyone to talk about your glorious deeds."

Lin Shi held his forehead with his hand. This was indeed something his parents could do.

"By the way, what are your plans for the holiday?"

During the chat, Su Qimeng suddenly turned to look at Lin Shi and asked.

Lin Shi was stunned and thought carefully. To be honest, he actually had a lot of things to do.

First of all, the baby bear is about to evolve, but it has not yet broken through level 29. However, considering the baby bear's talent, this is obviously very abnormal, so he has to find a way to solve the problem of it being stuck at a certain level.

Furthermore, he wanted to ask Qiu Ning if he could select a quasi-god elf after the holiday began. This would give him a few more months of training time and also allow him to develop a tacit understanding between the elf and the trainer.

In addition, he has asked Zhang Zhengyin for the qualification to explore the secret realm of Mojiang City. If he has time, he would like to go in and explore to see if he can find any trace of the wealth-suing spirit.

In addition, he could not forget the little blacksmith who discovered the brownstone mine. Although he had asked the local construction workers to keep an eye on him, there had been no news for such a long time. He wanted to find time to go and see it in person.

Of course, he also wanted to take advantage of the holiday to visit nature reserves in other cities to see new elves and the conditions of elves in different regions...

Um, this...

As he thought about it, his brows furrowed tightly. He realized that these things did not seem like something that could be accomplished in a vacation.

We still need to proceed step by step and resolve the important issues first.

"Miss Su, is there anything I can help you with?" Lin Shi moved his face closer to Su Qimeng and asked with a smile.

He already had a plan to deal with the issues of the baby bear and the quasi-god elf first, but he could still ask Su Qimeng what was going on first.

"Ah."

Su Qimeng didn't act pretentiously and nodded readily.

"I plan to help my parents' archaeological team during the holidays."

"Well... you should have heard about the new elven ruins that appeared in Qinhuang City. It seems that there have been new discoveries there. My mother and the others want me to participate in the archaeological work."

"Clap clap..."

Lin Shi clapped his hands in admiration.

"As expected of Professor Su and Professor Luo's daughter, her holiday life is unimaginable to ordinary people."

"Don't interrupt." Su Qimeng rolled her eyes and continued.

"I remember that you have always been very interested in these archaeological excavations, right? So my mother and the others are planning to give you a spot. Let me ask you if you want to go with us?"

"And..." Su Qimeng paused and continued.

"And if you perform well, you may even be eligible to capture an elf in the ruins."

"If I remember correctly, there should be some pretty good ghost-type elves living in that ruins. They are quite suitable for you."

"hiss."

Lin Shi took a deep breath and realized that every word this little girl said hit the nail on the head.

Indeed, he had always wanted to take a look at the ruins, and also planned to capture a ghost-type Pokémon during the holidays.

As for why he hadn't looked for Suo Cailing, it was very simple. He wanted a ghost-type Pokémon to protect himself, but if Suo Cailing didn't evolve, it was unclear who would protect whom in a fight...

Therefore, when he only has the right to capture one elf, he still wants to give priority to choosing an elf with sufficient combat power.

"Hmm... that sounds hard to refuse. When exactly do you want to leave? I have some things I need to take care of."

Lin Shi touched his chin and said after thinking.

"Hmm..." Su Qimeng thought for a moment.

"Probably mid-July. We still have things to prepare."

"Is that so?"

Lin Shi thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this matter would be of great benefit to him, so he nodded readily and said:

"It's settled then. Thank you, Miss Su, for helping me through the back door!"

Soft rice, or the fragrance of beautiful women!

Su Qimeng glanced at Lin Shi and shook her head helplessly.
