Chapter 37 may be subject to civilized monkey watching.

"Tell me honestly, were you hiding something here waiting for me?"

Zhu Suihan cupped Chenglong's face in her hands, her eyes fixed on him with a death stare.

“Wuwu!”

No, Longlong just wanted to give the trainer a ride!

However, her shifty eyes betrayed Chenglong's true thoughts; she genuinely wanted Zhu Suihan to experience her growth.

Using a wilder approach is quite intuitive, isn't it?

If Lapras was just growing and didn't train much when it was at the Kaji Gym...

During the time he spent with Zhu Suihan, his nutritional intake was consistently high, and both his physical body and attribute energy were being trained and strengthened.

From a fitness perspective, if a person who is too thin wants to build muscle, they need to start by gaining weight.

Although some people use this as an excuse to overeat.

Chenglong has officially transitioned from the stage of gaining muscle to the stage of building muscle, and his training volume is also increasing in tandem. Although his progress in strength is not exactly rapid, it is definitely impressive.

Four or five small changes a day is definitely not a problem.

Then, Zhu Suihan was very honored to become the first witness. The only drawback was that she became a wet and seductive figure, with her white hair clinging tightly to her clothes and skin.

"A speedboat's engine might overheat if it runs at full speed all the time, so it's impossible for it to run at full power continuously during use, but the Chenglong won't."

This journey was driven purely by biological energy!

Zhu Suihan tossed her hair and glanced at the walking grass that casually walked past her feet.

These small details actually illustrate that there are frequent signs of human activity in this area, so wild Pokémon are not afraid of people.

It's not far from Goldenrod City, or rather, this area can be seen as a starting village for trainers traveling out of town.

"Pop first, let's go to the Pokémon Center in Goldenrod City to help you recover first."

"Waaah."

Lapras scored a goal. Although the high-speed run was exhilarating, she knew that her current condition was not suitable for wandering around with her trainer.

"Manjin City, by the way, where was that restaurant again?"

I must say that the restaurant was really good, but my first priority was to go to the Pokémon Center and ask.

Along the way, they also encountered some strange newbie NPCs, who were just starting out on a trip and were looking for a lucky audience member to practice their combat skills.

Zhu Suihan said that he had just returned from the wilderness and his partner was not in good condition. The newcomers did not have that strange, obsessive storyline of fighting against each other.

In short, everyone was quite friendly, and there was even an older sister who kept staring at Zhu Suihan's face and asked if he needed any emergency medicine.

You're too kind.

Upon arriving at the Pokémon Center, Zhu Suihan handed Lapras's Poké Ball to Nurse Joy, only to be almost mistaken for some strange villainous special ball.

"I've never seen a Poké Ball like this before, or rather, there aren't many young people these days who would still choose to make their own Poké Balls."

Miss Joey smiled slightly: "It seems you and your partner have a good relationship."

"Of course."

Zhu Suihan nodded: "Thank you for your help, Miss Nurse Joy. By the way, I'd like to borrow the equipment in the Pokémon Center. We'll pay for it together later."

"No need, it's free this time."

Miss Joey's smile grew even warmer: "Junior."

Zhu Suihan:?

"Are you... a teacher?"

"No, that's not it. It's just that the news has spread, and everyone is curious about your identity, that you could get Uncle Liu to help you."

Miss Joy explained, "Generally speaking, besides students who are enrolled through the regular admission process, there are also those who pay large sponsorship fees to enroll temporarily."

"But among them, you are one of the few who directly used the back door, and the person who spoke up for you was 'Uncle Liu of Winter'."

It's alright. Although it's unlikely that he'll become Uncle Liu in summer, becoming Autumn shouldn't be a problem.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Joey Hua, this is my name. From now on, you'll be my junior."

Joey shook hands with Zhu Suihan: "What will happen after you go to the academy? Don't be afraid."

"There are very few boys here, and even fewer who come in like this. It's bound to attract attention, but no one will do anything strange. Just keep a normal attitude."

In short, it's about observing monkeys in a civilized manner, right?

I have the illusion that I've entered a girls' academy. I hope a few brothers can come and form a team to play together, otherwise this "girls' academy dungeon" might be a bit too difficult.

Zhu Suihan asked, "Sister Hua, will there be any placement test or anything like that when I enroll? I don't really know much about your courses."

"Yes, and you might be the only candidate."

Joey nodded: "Because you're a transfer student, and the kind whose previous academic background isn't even known, we'll definitely do a background check so the college can assign you a grade and class."

Fine, illiterate people still have to take exams.

Zhu Suihan nodded his thanks. It seemed that even without a certified trainer title from the Pokémon League, he wouldn't have to pay to use the Pokémon Center anymore.

The familiar healing sound rang out, which in reality meant the end of the treatment. Besides Zhu Suihan, several other trainers stood up.

"Lucky~"

Chansey pushed out a small cart, which was neatly filled with Poké Balls, except for one with an off-color design that wasn't very friendly to people with OCD.

Once the number of Pokémon that need treatment increases, the Pokémon will no longer be allowed to leave their Poké Balls and sit in the car.

Zhu Suihan took his Beiming Ball, and the dragon inside shook restlessly for a moment, wanting to get out now.

"Don't even think about it, just stay inside and rest."

Zhu Suihan slung the Poké Ball over her waist and then glanced at the trainers beside her.

It has a feeling of five villages fighting with headbands, like Unova Champion Alder, who hangs a Poké Ball around his neck like Sha Wujing, while the others are also showing off their unique skills.

The idea of ​​wearing Poké Balls around one's waist is mainly influenced by the image of Red from back in the day. Before the Pokémon Transfer Machine was released, Red's image of having a waist full of Poké Balls left a deep impression.

The same goes for badges. Ash likes to pin his badges inside his clothes, just like how people in suits used to always hang a pen on the inside of their clothes.

Normally, badges and ribbon medals for the Grand Prix can be stored in special boxes.

There's only one problem with this behavior: a single badge is fine, but if you hang eight badges on it, doesn't it feel heavy?

Zhu Suihan had already imagined Xiaozhi's answer.

This is proof of our growth, right, Pikachu!

"Never mind, I'll just hang up for a bit."

Zhu Suihan walked to the rest area, opened his notebook, and began reading, while also observing the operation of the Pokémon Center.

In short, if it's a very common injury, or a case of exhaustion, Miss Joey won't intervene; medical equipment can solve the problem.

I must give a shout-out to the Pokémon Center's medical technology, which enables unmanned medical care for minor injuries and illnesses.

Miss Joey would only leave the counter to treat more serious injuries.

However, since trainers are the type who travel all over the world, Nurse Joy and her friends need to have a lot of Pokémon knowledge.

Aside from anything else, you can see Pokémon from many other regions at Pokémon Centers in these major cities, and Nurse Joy in Kanto can even encounter Pokémon from Galar.

For example, if the Frozen Head of the Ice Goose gets destroyed in a battle, and the local environment happens to be under a red alert for high temperatures.

What's really tough is that the face of the ice-cure goose is extremely sensitive to heat.

In situations like this, conventional medical methods are definitely ineffective.

What should I do?

Of course, you put it in the refrigerator. (Scratch that)

They'll definitely use the Pokémon Center's equipment to cool and de-heat the Pokémon first, and then make a frozen head for the Goose.

In case of an emergency in the wild, it's not impossible to have the Ice Goose replenish its attribute energy and activate a snowy weather effect, or simply unleash a freezing wind on yourself.

However, judging by the timeline, Leon, that scissor-handed guy with the cape, should have started his journey by now.

Mugentana, however, is still quite handsome in Zhu Suihan's eyes.

There is a kind of beauty in the "bone dragon" summoned by a necromancer.

However, big cities are indeed busy; you're constantly on the go.

There must be more than one Pokémon Center in Goldenrod City, otherwise even if Nurse Joy drew its legs off, it might not be enough to meet the trainers' needs.

Zhu Suihan left the computer on for a while to review what she had learned in the past few days. Her original study plan was disrupted after Chenglong's rapid rise, so she had to replan.

After lunchtime, more trainers appeared, representing a wider range of ages, and many older men in uniforms brought their partners for treatment.

Some of them run sales or deliver packages, and they bring along Flying-type Pokémon like Pidgeotto.

There were also construction workers carrying top-tier trainers like Geodude and Machop. Zhu Suihan even noticed that one of Machop's hands was red and swollen, which made the trainer extremely distressed.

"Hey, junior, come help me out!"

?

If you run a guild raid, do you just grab a priest or paladin off the street?

Zhu Suihan walked over: "Sister Hua, is something the matter?"

Joey said, "Help hold down this wrist. This kid seems to be on his first day at work and doesn't have much experience."

Oh, I see. So when it hurts, it's easy to move around and it's inconvenient to get treatment, right?

Zhu Suihan nodded: "Leave it to me."

The title "junior brother" had a significant effect; at least the construction workers didn't question Zhu Suihan's identity, and when he took out a dumpling from his pocket and placed it on Wanli's forehead, no one said anything.

"Chocolate Egg, cooperate with me."

Zhu Suihan: "Use singing."

"Lucky~~"

Beautiful musical notes surrounded Machop. The little guy, who was initially intimidated by the Sticky Ball and filled with panic, quickly fell asleep after hearing the comforting words from his trainer and with the effect of the Singing move.

"Okay, that's simple."

Zhu Suihan glanced at the injury on Wanli's hand and put the sticky ball away.

"He's asleep. You'll stay by his side during his treatment later, and it's best to hold his wrist with your other hand."

"Okay, okay."

The uncle grabbed Zhu Suihan's hand and waved it repeatedly, saying, "Thank you, thank you."

"Thank Sister Xie, she's the real doctor."

Joey and Chansey pushed the group of patients into the treatment room. The uncle glanced at Zhu Suihan, not blushing, but rather curious about the thing from before.

"Hey bro, what was that thing that was on top of Arm Wrestler's head just now?"

"Oh, that one."

Zhu Suihan remained unfazed: "That's a Soul-Suppressing Stone, which can help Pokémon concentrate and ignore pain."

Panic is also a form of mental concentration, right? It's like when a knife tip is close at hand, you subconsciously stare at the tip and focus your attention.

If the wrist strength is still affected by the injury, it's like being an excited kid yelling and shouting before bedtime; you definitely won't be able to fall asleep in bed.

Once the sticky pill is placed on his head, an elder's angry roar of "Are you going to sleep or not?" is enough to make him "calm down" a little.

At times like these, Chansey's singing can maximize its effect.
