Pokémon: From Magikarp

Qinhuang City, a famous historical and cultural city in China, has been the capital of many dynasties from ancient times to the present, leaving behind a splendid culture and rich historical relics.

I'm in Qinhuang, just got off the plane.

Lin Shi walked out of the airport and looked around.

"Here here."

Su Qimeng raised her slender white arms and waved.

"I'm flattered that Miss Su came to pick me up in person."

"Stop talking nonsense." Su Qimeng rolled her eyes.

"Come on, my parents are waiting for you to have dinner together."

"Uncle and aunt are here too..."

……

Su Qimeng and Lin Shi walked into the exquisite and elegant hotel private room.

"Xiao Shi, you are finally here. Your uncle Su and I have been looking forward to your coming."

Luo Wenjun looked at Lin Shi who walked in, smiled slightly, and greeted Lin Shi affectionately.

"I've been missing you for a long time, too. I was worried that coming too early would cause trouble for you, otherwise I would have come a long time ago."

Lin Shi said with a smile, looking around the private room. In addition to Su Qimeng's parents, there were two young people who looked young sitting next to them.

Lin Shi had never seen these two people before.

"Ha ha……"

"You are still so good at talking."

The man sitting next to Luo Wenjun laughed loudly. This man was naturally Su Qimeng's father, the famous Pokémon archaeologist in Shenzhou - Su Yu.

"Come on, you two must be tired after traveling all the way. Come and sit down."

"okay."

Lin Shi smiled and pulled out a chair for Su Qimeng, then sat next to her naturally.

"Oh, by the way, who are these two?"

Lin Shi looked at the two young people, a man and a woman, and asked Su Qimeng.

"They are my father's students and assistants, Senior Sister Huang Qi and Senior Brother Shen Huaiming. They are now helping my parents with the archaeological work at the ruins."

Su Qimeng introduced the two people to Lin Shi. Lin Shi looked at him carefully. Shen Huaiming was a boy who looked very gentle, but he seemed to be severely nearsighted and wore a pair of black-framed glasses with thick bottle bottoms.

Huang Qi is a short girl with dark skin. It seems that the wind and sun of field archaeology have had a significant impact on her appearance. However, she cannot be said to be ugly, but she can only be said to be unattractive.

Both parties nodded as a greeting.

"I heard from your Aunt Luo that you performed very well in the college entrance examination, winning all ten games."

While eating, the group of people started chatting animatedly. Su Yu had watched Lin Shi grow up since he was a child, so he was naturally very happy about Lin Shi's achievements.

"I heard from Qi Meng that you have decided to go to Northern University?"

"Ah."

Lin Shi nodded. He had already signed the enrollment agreement and it was too late to regret now.

"Yes, the North is one of the top six universities, and it's close to home, so it's a good choice."

Su Yu nodded, supporting Lin Shi's choice.

"That's perfect. Before school starts, come with us to the secret ruins and broaden your horizons."

"Oh? Is this Lin Shi going to enter the ruins too?"

As soon as Su Yu finished speaking, before Lin Shi could say anything, Shen Huaiming asked in surprise.

"What's wrong with this?"

Lin Shi raised his eyebrows, looked at Shen Huaiming and asked.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Shen Huaiming realized that there was something wrong with his words, and hurriedly tried to explain.

"I mean, the environment in the Qinhuang Secret Realm is harsh, and the level of the elves is not low. Lin Shi, a high school student, may be in danger..."

"I have watched Lin Shi grow up since he was a child. I know his character and qualities. There is absolutely no problem for him to join our archaeological team. Moreover, as a trainer, he may be stronger than me. If I can go, why can't he go?"

"Xiao Shen, you should take care of your own affairs first."

Su Yu said in a deep voice, with a somewhat unhappy tone, which surprised Lin Shi. In his impression, Su Yu has always been a very easy-going and approachable person.

But he seems a bit harsh on his students.

"Uh-huh."

Shen Huaiming nodded and said nothing more.

"Xiao Shi, you just came to Qinhuang today and have never been to the northwest before. You and Qi Meng should spend the next two days here."

When facing Lin, Su Yu suddenly changed his tone, then he looked at Huang Qi and gave instructions.

"Xiao Huang, please take them around for the next two days. I'll give you a day off."

"okay."

Huang Qi immediately nodded and agreed. Who wouldn't want a free vacation?

"Sorry to trouble you, Senior Sister Huang." Lin Shi cupped his hands.

The few of them finished their meal quickly as they talked. Su Yu and Luo Wenjun still had to work, so after giving a few instructions, they took Shen Huaiming back to the research institute, leaving only Lin Shi, Su Qimeng and Huang Qi.

After separating from Su Yu and the others, Huang Qi stretched and seemed much more natural. It seemed that she was still a little restrained in front of the teacher.

"Qimeng, Lin Shi, where do you want to go first?"

"Let's go around. I've heard that there are many famous places in Qinhuang. I haven't really visited them in such a long time. Let's take this opportunity to have a good look."

Su Qimeng responded.

"OK, then follow me."

Huang Qi nodded and led the team confidently.

"Oh, by the way, Lin Shi, don't mind what Senior Brother Shen said just now. He didn't mean to target you."

Huang Qi suddenly remembered something and turned around and said to Lin Shi.

"Brother Shen is a little unhappy because he can't enter the ruins for archaeological excavation next time, so he showed such a big reaction."

"Oh?" Lin Shi was a little surprised and asked.

"Why didn't Uncle Su let him go?"

Huang Qi thought about it and shook his head.

"Originally, the list of people entering the secret realm had already been finalized, and Senior Brother Shen's name was naturally on it. But for some reason, Teacher Su took the initiative to remove his name from the list some time ago and asked him to stay in the research institute."

"I heard that Senior Brother Shen had an argument with the teacher because of this matter, which made the teacher very unhappy."

Lin Shi touched his chin. Is this a teacher-student conflict? He felt that this matter was a bit strange.

"Why are there so many people from the Security Bureau here? Did something happen?"

While walking on the road, Su Qimeng noticed that she often saw police cars passing by, or security personnel patrolling the roadside with elves, and they all looked very serious.

"Ah, about this, don't worry, it's not the case." Huang Qi shook his head and explained to the two of them.

"This is related to the Qinhuang Secret Realm that we are about to explore. The Qinhuang Secret Realm is a secret realm that has just passed its hidden period. The space channels have not yet completely stabilized, and new space channels often appear suddenly."

"The Qinhuang Secret Realm is not far from the central area of ​​Qinhuang City, which causes some elves to appear directly in crowded places through the passage. When they arrive in a new environment, they are often restless and will go crazy and cause damage without any scruples."

Huang Qi looked at the security guards passing by on the roadside and continued.

"There have been several cases of wild secret realm elves injuring people recently, so the city has added more people to patrol everywhere, so that when an emergency occurs, they can arrive at the scene as soon as possible and take appropriate measures."

After hearing Huang Qi's words, Lin Shi and Su Qimeng both nodded. This kind of secret realm that has just passed its secret period is relatively dangerous because the space is extremely unstable, which means that space channels may appear anywhere, and this situation may last for a long time.

I hope it won't disturb their trip...
