Limited Skills That Can Be Spoken Off the Cuff

Chapter 23 Limited Skills That Can Be Spoken Off the Cuff

"These are all very helpful. The charm of Pokémon certainly extends beyond just trainers!"

Abi grabbed Zhu Suihan's arm, her eyes shining.

"Come to my Cypress Gym, let's work together to make it bigger and stronger, and create a glorious Bug-type!"

Zhu Suihan glanced at Abi calmly and said, "I have no education; I'm illiterate."

Abi: ?

"I've never been to school, and all the documents I have were only recently obtained."

Abi: ?!

"Who would believe that? You can come up with so many ideas, and you're telling me you're illiterate?"

Zhu Suihan nodded: "Yes, is there a problem?"

Abi took a deep breath, and her blood pressure continued to rise.

"When you refuse me, please use a reason that isn't so perfunctory."

"I'm not kidding you, my admission certificate is still being processed, but it should be ready soon."

For some inexplicable reason, Ah Bi asked, "Where are you going to study?"

"It seems to be Joy Academy. If I'm not mistaken, that should be it."

Abi's curiosity was piqued: "You're going to be a nurse, a Pokémon doctor?"

"I'm interested in breeding more Pokémon, and I also want to see more of them."

Zhu Suihan smiled and said, "I was afraid you wouldn't know, so I told you that I was born about a week and a half ago."

Ah Bi was both amused and exasperated: "You grew like this in just over a week?!"

"Okay, I'm not teasing you anymore, but what I just told you was the truth, it's just that it was a bit shocking, so much so that it sounded like a joke."

Zhu Suihan said, "I don't have any prejudice against insect-type creatures, but I don't particularly like them either."

"To be more precise, I love Pokémon, so I want to go to different places to see different Pokémon in person, regardless of their type."

"With my partners."

"Waaah."

The dragon automatically launched the ball, its head pressing tightly against Zhu Suihan's cheek.

Join Longlong to see the world and make new friends!

let's go!

Ah Bi laughed: "I see. Even though you're illiterate, you still have your own dreams, right?"

Zhu Suihan couldn't help but laugh: "There's no need to keep bringing up the issue of illiteracy, since we won't be illiterate anymore soon."

"It's alright, because you're still illiterate."

Abi said, "We should all strive towards our dreams. Or rather, when you become famous, Suihan, you should come back and give my events a thumbs up!"

Zhu Suihan responded: "Is it possible, and I mean possible, that after your event becomes a huge hit, I'll be the one shamelessly trying to ride on your coattails?"

Abi said confidently, "No, I believe you."

Zhu Suihan tossed the heavy ball in his hand: "Coincidentally, I believe you too."

In the cold of winter, my good brother is still here!

Abi blushed and almost wanted to drag Zhu Suihan into becoming sworn brothers on the spot.

"You must be starving after all this work. I'll treat you to the dojo's specialty dishes!"

Zhu Suihan pondered for a moment, somewhat hesitant.

To put it bluntly, the dojo's specialty dish is just the canteen of the cypress bark dojo.

After the meal—

"Waaaaah, Suihan, how can you eat so much?"

Abi was on the verge of tears, feeling that the treasure trove inside the gym, which was used to provide special training for Pokémon, was now in jeopardy.

No!

Abi clenched his fists, his eyes seemingly burning with fire.

Come on, let's take a risk!

Just imagine, a Snorlax stormed into the Azalea Gym and wreaked havoc in the kitchen!

But that's not right either. If Snorlax barges in and you can't produce a record of Snorlax being caught, you'll definitely have to add a "lack of management skills" evaluation to your assessment.

Zhu Suihan asked curiously, "You're the dojo master, you can't be short of funding, can you?"

Ah Bi looked miserable: "The funding is definitely not a problem, but it's strange that the meal expenses suddenly jumped up. The alliance will definitely ask me all sorts of questions and make me write reports again."

Zhu Suihan patted Abi on the shoulder: "Is that so? Don't worry, I've already found a reason for you."

"Just say your reason is the same as Kaji's Gym: you both served the same person."

"You're not the first gym leader I've emptied out; the League will understand your predicament."

Abi: ? ? ?

So it turns out you're a repeat offender!

Well, with Grandpa Liu by my side, Abi immediately felt much better.

"Oh, by the way, Suihan, this is for you."

Abi handed two spray bottles to Zhu Suihan: "The black one is an insect repellent spray, and the white one is an insect attractant spray. You should know how to use them."

Zhu Suihan shook his head: "Insect repellent? What are its ingredients?"

"It's just a smell that some Bug-type Pokémon don't really like, but it's harmless to both humans and Pokémon."

Abi said, "If you're going to Joy Academy and your only companion is Lapras, you'll probably have to take the normal route. These two cans of spray will help you."

Zhu Suihan nodded and thanked him, "I'm afraid it won't be enough, would you like two more cans?"

Abi rolled her eyes: "Come on, this is a special version made by the curator. I personally prepared the recipe, and only a little bit is needed to achieve excellent results."

"Thank you, but I don't think I have anything on me to give you."

Zhu Suihan pondered for a moment, then placed his hand on Abi's body.

"Then I'll let you share a little of my luck."

Abi: ?

He felt that he had more questions and doubts today than in the previous month.

"Master Abi, Master!"

An apprentice rushed over: "Your phone number is here! It's a call from the Rocket Group. They're inviting you to a collaborative development project!"

Abi was taken aback: "Rocket Group? We've never really dealt with them before. Oh well, I'll go over there first. Suihan, you can wander around as you like."

?

Wow, it works so well?

Zhu Suihan looked at Chenglong: "The rocket group's research project, it can't be the one we talked about with Ma Zhishi last time, can it?"

"Waaah."

Chenglong nodded seriously. Although she didn't understand, that didn't stop her from trying to make Zhu Suihan think she did.

Zhu Suihan rested her hand on her chin: "It seems like we won't have to worry about what to give as gifts anymore."

Special limited-edition gift - Blessing of Luck.

Abi ran over excitedly: "Suihan, I won! I won!"

You passed the imperial examination, right?

Zhu Suihan turned to Chenglong decisively: "The Freeze Ray will wake him up."

"Ugh!"

The icy blue light struck the ground beside Abi, instantly bringing the hot-blooded trainer to his senses.

Zhu Suihan patted Chenglong's neck with satisfaction.

"Alright, now you can tell me what you won, the lottery?"

Abi swallowed hard. "I'm going to Tokiwa City in a few days. One of my former mentors was involved in some kind of project and suddenly thought of me, inviting me to join him in the research."

"Oh, then there's no way it can escape."

Zhu Suihan nodded: "Your project has something to do with me; to be precise, I sold it."

"Bug and Flying-type lure modules will definitely be a great help to you. Good luck."

Abi: ?

"Wait, how did you know it had those two attributes? Oh, you're saying you sold this?!"

That's even more outrageous.

"You won't believe me when I tell you, but that's something from my time, okay?"

Zhu Suihan remained unfazed: "I'm telling you the truth. Just think, he's less than a week old. Haven't you thought about anything yet?"

Abi, who had spent some time wandering around various ruins with the ultimate goal of becoming a Pokémon professor, suddenly shuddered and looked at Zhu Suihan with a face full of horror.

He said that Mr. Steel's attitude towards Zhu Suihan was so strange!

Is this a living antique unearthed from a historical site?!

Zhu Suihan comforted him, "Calm down, calm down. It's okay for you to know about this. Anyway, more people will find out in the future."

Are the living antiques in the ruins strange?

No problem, Zhu Suihan will give you a "list of villains and mysterious figures" in no time.

Putting everything else aside, Mr. Chairman of the Hoenn League, you wouldn't want others to know that the leader of Team Aqua is the director of your TV station, would you?

Compared to those guys who want to destroy the world at the drop of a hat, and the exploration team in Metropolis, what's a living antique who just wants to travel and cuddle with Pokémon?

"How should I put it? You can think of those things as a kind of knowledge from my time."

Zhu Suihan tapped his head: "I have amnesia. I can't remember many things. I can only recall some fragments occasionally, and then I sell them for money."

"As long as there is civilization, it will always cost money, no matter what era it is."

Abi was genuinely curious now: "A living antique! I've heard that the Alliance has some ancient secrets stored up, but this is the first time I've ever seen a living person like this."

"It's okay, you might even see a living ancient Pokémon in the future."

Putting everything else aside, there are all sorts of creatures like Ammonite, Kabutops, and Relicanth, it just depends on whether the main characters or some lucky guy will run into them.

"An identity is just an identity, which is why I want to make some money."

Zhu Suihan said helplessly, "After all, it's better to be able to do things independently in this kind of situation."

Abi expressed his approval, then seemed a little embarrassed.

"Suihan, could you show me that decoy module or something, or explain how the tool works?"

"I'm worried that if I go there and I'm the type with the lowest level of education, I might embarrass the teacher who invited me."

Zhu Suihan laughed: "Don't worry, you're definitely not the most illiterate one."

As the "top performer," Ma Zhishi would definitely be present to accompany him on such scientific research activities; after all, he was an expert in the Department of Electrical Engineering.

Um.

Zhu Suihan suddenly put away the dragon mount and walked out: "I'm going out for a bit. I almost forgot something. I'll be back later."

Abi gave a blank "oh" and then became excited about participating in the seminar.

I need to take leave!

I really don't want to go to this class for even a second longer!

Zhu Suihan's movement speed gradually increased as she headed towards Rocket Group's convenience store.

He said that he felt a strange feeling when Ma Xueshi was mentioned.

His money!

"Boss, has my order arrived yet?"

"We're here, we're here! Don't worry, sir, I'll go get it for you right now."

After quickly settling the customer's bill, the convenience store manager ran to the back office. This was an order from his boss's boss's boss, so he absolutely had to treat this person like a king!

The things Masze gave us were really impressive; there were ten large mechanical cases in total, each about the size of three air conditioner outdoor units.

In addition, there was another small and exquisite box, which should contain the smart communication device that Ma Zhishi mentioned.

Abbreviated as mobile phone.

Sweep the materials and evolution stones into the incense burner, and Zhu Suihan opens the small box, feeling the joy of owning his first mobile phone.

The box has a large bright red "R" on it, but the phone itself has no markings; it's a very standard, plain black that doesn't reflect light even in sunlight, indicating high-quality materials.
