"Yawn~~~"

The boring Shangjo held the naughty bullet and watched the news on the webpage boringly.

At this time, Nanqi had been walking for a long time, but Dr. Zhenghui still showed no signs of stopping.

It's the first time I know that a man can be so powerful on the phone than a woman.....

And just as the article was complaining

Jingle bell bell bell ~

The default ringtone came out of a bunch of devices.

"Dr. Zhenghui, I have your phone ....." Kamijo screamed, but the discussion in the inner lab showed no signs of being hindered.

Scratching the hedgehog's head, Shangjo, who was a little embarrassed, first found the mobile phone that was still making a sound in a pile of inexplicable parts and instruments, and planned to take it to Zhenghui first......

Well?

Picking up the upper bar of the phone, I couldn't help but stop the action when I saw the name displayed on the screen.

Crystal?

looked at Zhenghui, who was still in it and didn't care about it, and Shangjo took the mobile phone in his hand and directly clicked the answer button.

"Moses Moses~" Kamijo greeted with a smile.

"Hello, Dr. Zhenghui, I'm .....?" The crystal on the other side unexpectedly felt that something was wrong: "Hello...... Pls are you ......"

"Hehe, it's Mr. Uejo. Seeing that the crystal had already reflected, Kamijo stopped teasing her.

"Sorry, I accidentally made the wrong call......"

"No, no, no, Mr. Kamijo is on Dr. Masaki's side right now. Seeing that Crystal had a tendency to hang up the phone directly, Kamijo hurriedly explained and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Crystal?" Call Dr. Masaki, but he may not have much time to spare. ”

"......Actually" hesitated slightly, but the crystal on the phone still explained to the previous article, "I wanted to call Dr. Zhenghui to inform him that he might arrive sooner." I was tracking a rare goldfish king, but it went better than expected. In addition, the backpack has already been filled, and going down will reduce the capture efficiency, so I plan to teleport this batch of Pokéballs back to Dr. Zhenghui first. So ......"

"I see. Kamijo nodded, and then asked, "Crystal, where are you now?" Dr. Masaki is busy right now, Mr. Kamijo will pick you up." ”

“…… Okay, I'm ...... now," and with a little hesitation, the crystal still told the conspicuous subject of the address where the article was located.

"Well, wait, I'll be right away. Kamijo promised as he remembered the way he came, making sure that it wasn't very far, and was ready to go straight to the crystal.

Write your whereabouts on a piece of paper in your hand, and then press Zhenghui's mobile phone in a conspicuous place. Finally, he glanced at Dr. Masaki, who was still unable to extricate himself from the phone discussion, and Kamijo walked out of the door with Hitomi.

。。。。。。。。。

It didn't take long for Kamijo, who was heading down the main road, to find a crystal resting on the side of the road.

Unlike the image of being capable and quick in her previous impression, Kamijo couldn't help but be stunned when she looked at the crystal with a small bag in front of her - even a few Pokémon on the side were holding large and small bags like her, and from these bags you could see from the outside...... Inside are all shrunken Pokéball balls.

"It's worthy of a professional ......," Kamijo sighed, and only greeted Crystal after getting closer: "Crystal!

！

Looking at the sky, the crystal that thought that Kamijo would come by the fire-breathing dragon was startled by the sudden greeting. When he turned around, he found that it was Shangjo, so he happily carried the bag and greeted him: "Shangjo-san, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"Hmm, has it been a long time?" Kamijo said with a smile as he took the bag in Crystal's hand and said, "That's right, after all, you've caught up with Mr. Kamijo's progress." ”

"It's just been going well lately. Crystal said embarrassedly, wiped his sweat and helped his Pokémon get some Pokéball balls, and followed up with the top article waiting for him: "What about you, why did you suddenly appear on Dr. Zhenghui's side?"

"Hmm...... This may be a bit difficult to explain. Kamijo awkwardly scratched the hedgehog's head with his right hand and directly changed the topic:

"It's crystal, you're ......," Kamijo gestured to the bag in his hand—referring to the large number of Pokéballs inside, of course. "Isn't the rookie trainer's Pokéball automatically teleported back?"

"There are only a limited number of special Pokéballs available for rookie trainers, so I usually use regular Pokéballs to catch them. Crystal explained. "And it takes a lot of time to recharge before it can be used a second time when it is automatically returned, and it will be replaced with a regular Pokéball when it is in the research institute. The situation on my side is naturally ......"

"I see. Kamijo nodded, and couldn't help but sigh that although Crystal hadn't been with Dr. Oki for a long time, he had obviously been able to get in touch with a lot of "insiders". But thinking about it this way, Xiao Huang, who is going to study with Dr. Damu, is obviously very worth looking forward to in the future.

"Speaking of which, why are there so many Pokémon Balls? There are so many varieties of Pokémon in Kanto lately?"

"Some of the Pokémon that were passed down to Dr. Ohki have changed a little bit from the previous decades, and it is said that it is because of the relationship between the Pokémon that circulate in each region. That's why Dr. Ohki said that it's best to capture any special individual you might encounter and use it for research. Crystal took out a Pokéball and pointed to the label on it and said, "Of course, these individuals will leave at most one in the end, and the others will be released at the capture site after the collection is completed." ”

"I see...... Kamijo nodded, knowing in his heart that Dr. Ohki would naturally be more thoughtful than he was. "But Crystal, don't you get tired with these? Mr. Kamijo remembers that this road will pass through Hualan City, why don't you pass back the Pokémon Center where the Pokémon Ball is?"

"Originally, I was going to do the same, but it is said that there was a problem with the water pipe at the gym, and something was accidentally cut during the repair, which caused the Pokémon Center to lose power, and it may take at least three days to repair. Crystal said helplessly. "Although there is a backup power supply and Pokémon, there is no way to maintain a high-power operation such as transmitting Pokéball balls. ”

"Hmm....." Kamijo couldn't help but stagnate.

There is a follow-up to the Hualan Theater, but it shouldn't be a big problem if it's just normal construction...... Speaking of which, the Pokémon Center has a power outage, and I don't know what happened to everyone. Well, at least Laplis's mood might not be too good......

"Kamijo-san, what's wrong?" Crystal asked keenly as she looked at Kamijo, who had slowed down.

"No, nothing. Kamijo replied casually, but what he wanted was to go back to Hualan City early - on the one hand, the partners were still repairing, so they should go back to confirm the situation first, and on the other hand, Dr. Zhenghui's research institute did not have other rooms, so it was better to leave early than to make Crystal embarrassed by the time.

"Speaking of which, Crystal, how did you get here? Mr. Kamijo is ......."

With a plan in mind, Kamijo, who had been exchanging experiences with Crystal along the way, soon returned to the institute with her.

----------------- Dividing Line-----------------

led the crystal into the research institute, but helplessly, Dr. Zhenghui continued to discuss with Dr. Ohki.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Uejo. Kamijo motioned for Mercury to sit down in the reception room on the side, and he quietly walked into the study room inside.

As far as the eye could see, only Zhenghui, who was standing in front of the videophone, was holding the microphone and talking to Dr. Ohki about the technical terms that he didn't understand at all, and he couldn't tell that the two of them had been talking for more than two hours.

"Hmm......" When I looked closely, Dr. Ohki was actually sitting on the other side of the screen.

Silently, Kamijo walked around behind Dr. Masaki and waved his hand at Dr. Oki on the other side.

Apparently stunned by Dr. Ohki, Kamijo quietly exited the lab again.

"Dr. Zhenghui should be out soon. Kamijo said to Crystal, then sat down next to her, leaving a spot directly across from her.

Sure enough, after a while, Zhenghui, who was obviously still a little unsatisfied, walked out of the research room.

"Dr. Zhenghui, Crystal, she's here!"

Before Masaki could devote himself to the study again, Kamijo loudly drew his attention to this side.

"Ah, water, crystals?" Zhenghui was obviously stunned, and then looked over with Uejo's movements, and only slowly reacted when he saw the little girl bowing behind Uejo: "Oh, you're here." Dr. Oki had already said hello before, and the guest room above had been cleaned. Oh yes, there's also the teleportation room over there, so you'll have to contact ..... before teleporting, so let's wait and go together. ”

Zhenghui was incoherent, as if he was going to tell Crystal everything at once.

"Alright, alright, there's no hurry. Shangjo, who couldn't look at it, pushed Zhenghui to sit on the seat: "Is there anything else you are in a hurry to study?"

"That's not true, because ....., because who's that? South...... In short, there is no problem in terms of ideas and theories, but the main thing is about the sample of the Pokémon population......"

"Hey, hey~ Since there's no problem here, let's deal with the problem on the crystal side first. Kamijo said as he guided Masaki, and from time to time he gestured to the crystal behind him with his eyes.

In this way, very quickly, several people passed a large number of Pokéball balls to the Oki Research Institute. Then, according to the content of the chat when he came, he asked Crystal to deliver the samples collected along the way, and Zhenghui also handed over the key to the guest room to Crystal and brought it to the door of the guest room together. In the process of confirming the guest room, Kamijo also talked with Zhenghui intentionally or unintentionally, interspersed with questions that were revealed during the crystal exchange and got answers from Zhenghui......

When everything was taken care of, Kamijo finally let Masaaki go back to the research institute, and he was tired enough to take a nap in the reception room with Crystal.

。。。。。。

"I always feel like ..... Kamijo-san is in a hurry. Crystal said cautiously.

"Hmm..... is it really obvious?" Kamijo smiled bitterly: "But Mr. Kamijo is indeed about to leave." ”

"Huh, so anxious?" Crystal looked at Kamijo in surprise.

"yes, that's not a coincidence. Kamijo smiled and tried to touch Crystal's head, but he forcibly withdrew his hand. opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't explain anything: "Crystal has worked hard these days, let's rest here first." ”

"...... yes. Crystal looked at Shangjo, and nodded after a while, and also did not mean to ask.

“.…..”“. …..”

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.

Although Kamijo has always lamented that his mental age is a little too big, when facing a crystal that is much younger than himself, he can't help but see her as the same age...... Or people on the same level look at it.

For example, until Kamijo returned the crystal to the guest room again, until the crystal closed the door and disappeared from his sight, Kamijo did not see any weakness of the crystal.

Probably such a person is suitable, making a hero-like move like saving the world with Shuijun.

Kamijo thought so, but couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "What do you think, how big is the crystal now." ”

And as if he had heard a big joke, Kamijo's steps were a lot easier, and the situation that he had planned to leave directly turned into a straight walk to the kitchen, and muttered to himself.

"Let's take care of it one last time, I hope it won't be disliked. ”
