Pokémon: All About the Breeding House

Chapter 464 Thank you for appearing in my life

See you next time.

Fang Yan looked at Dan Di, Ma Shide, and the others in front of him and spoke.

"Next time we meet, we must have a match."

Dan Di extended his fist.

Fang Yan looked at Dan Di, smiled, and bumped fists with him. "Next time, for sure."

Miss Gothic floated out from the backyard, carrying several Grancidia flowers and their seeds, as well as seeds of common flowers and some Grancidia tea. She packed these things up and handed them to Honey Leaf.

"Thank you, Miss Goth."

Honey Leaf reached out and took it, thanking her.

"Mistress Honey Leaf, you just need to find some relatively fertile soil, plant the seeds of the Grancidia flower, and then water them once at six o'clock in the morning and once at six o'clock in the evening. As for the seeds of ordinary flowers, just follow your own habits."

Fang Yan told Mi Ye about the things to pay attention to when taking care of the Grancidia flowers, and then looked at Ma Shide: "Master Ma, I will send the tea to you as soon as it is ready."

"No rush, no rush, let's go back now. Remember to come visit the Galar region next time you have time."

Masde waved his hand.

Fang Yan nodded, "Okay."

Leon and Sonia rode on Charizard, while Mash and Honeybee rode on Corviknight. The two Pokémon took off at the same time. Fang Yan stood at the entrance of the breeding house and waved goodbye to the group.

"Goodbye, Grandpa Mastedt, Aunt Miye, Uncle Dante, and Sister Sonia. Come visit again next time."

Shana, like a little master, said goodbye warmly.

Zhi Shi followed closely behind.

After seeing Dan Di and the others off, Fang Yan stretched and yawned, "This first martial arts tournament is finally over—I'm so tired!"

.

Fang Yan felt like he was completely burned out.

It was so much more comfortable slacking off at the breeding center; all I did all day was eat and sleep.

Wusong stood aside, listening to Fang Yan's complaints. He hesitated, then looked at Xirona beside Fang Yan and chose to swallow his words.

So dealing with just this much is already exhausting?

Wusong silently said something to himself.

Then he looked at Fang Yan: "Then I'll go over and explain the rest of the things first."

Fang Yan nodded, and Wu Song nimbly jumped onto the bronze bell and left the breeding house.

"Uncle, uncle, will the first place winner get a trophy?"

Shana lifted her bun and looked straight at Fang Yan. Fang Yan reached out and pinched her little cheek. "Of course, we're going to go and receive the trophy now."

Mayor Qiyi scheduled the awards ceremony after lunch, since the competition had been going on until midday and everyone was hungry. He decided to let them go out for lunch and then come back for the awards ceremony. He also arranged with the shops near the venue to offer a 50% discount on lunch today.

"Great! Can we let little Shana and little Tomoyo go to receive the award?"

Shana grinned, and Fang Yan noticed that she was missing another tooth.

"Hmm—you'll have to ask Dali about that, after all, it was Dali who worked so hard to win the championship."

Upon hearing this, Shana grabbed Tomoyo's hand and ran to Dali. She looked up at Dali and told him her thoughts.

Dali smiled and gave a thumbs up.

"Cough."

no problem.

"Hehe, thank you, Sister Dali! Sister Dali is the best!"

Shana hugged Dali's leg, climbed up his leg, and then sat on Dali's neck.

Dali happily let Shana sit on his shoulders, and then picked up Tomoyo as well, letting her sit on his bent arm.

easy.

"You actually prepared a trophy? Someone who didn't even prepare prize money in the first place actually prepared a trophy?"

Cynthia looked at Fang Yan curiously and voiced her doubts.

"What are you talking about? Do I look like the kind of person who doesn't prepare anything?"

Fang Yan was somewhat displeased and questioned Cynthia.

Cynthia and Garchomp exchanged a glance and then nodded in unison.

"Hey, you guys are prejudiced!"

Fang Yan accused Cynthia and Garchomp, and seeing how high-sounding his words were, Cynthia began to wonder if she really had too much prejudice against Fang Yan.

Just as she was about to apologize to Fang Yan, Latias's clear voice rang in her mind: "Don't be fooled by him. He only thought of making the trophy after the first day of the competition. He hid in the bathroom at night to discuss the plan with Gengar, and then rushed to finish the trophy yesterday and delivered it."

Cynthia: ————

Cynthia listened to the accusations in dialect and smiled sweetly.

"Tell me, how long did you hide in the bathroom and discuss with Gengar before coming up with this trophy?"

"Three little ones—no, this was decided long ago."

Cynthia nodded. "I see. It seems I wronged you."

"You've not only wronged me, you've even wronged Gengar as well."

The Garchomp, watching Fang Yan and Gengar's very expressive faces, couldn't help but rub its scythe together.

Don't you two know what kind of reputation you have among the people and Pokémon you know?

"Looks like I should apologize to you and Gengar."

"Hehe, actually it's not necessary. How should I put it, if you really want to apologize, it's not that I can't—"

"When did you hide in the bathroom to discuss it that day?"

"After you fall asleep—"

Before he could finish speaking in dialect, Gengar covered his mouth.

dialect:!

Finish!

She tricked me!

Cynthia took a deep breath and said calmly, "Since you enjoy doing other things while I'm asleep, then from today onwards you can go back to your own room to sleep."

dialect:!!!

Yameru!

"Cynthia, no!"

The dialect describes someone crying bitterly.

Cynthia ignored Fang Yan's attempts to persuade her to stay, and simply reached out to brush her blonde hair behind her ear. "Garuda, let's go, Shana, Tomoyo, let's go to the venue to receive our awards."

"Okay~"

"Um.

""

Watching Cynthia's departing figure, Fang Yan and Gengar exchanged a glance, then Fang Yan said, "Miss Gothia~"

Miss Gothic brushed past her.

"—Miss Skirt~"

"Laji~"

Bye-bye, Uncle Dialect~

"—Latias, my little red airplane, my little airplane sister, I know you won't abandon me."

There was no response for a long time.

dialect:----

Finally, Fang Yan turned to look at Jiuwei.

"Nine----"

"call out?"

Why did you put me at the very end?

The nine-tailed fox's eyes were icy cold as it stared intently at Fang Yan.

Dialect: — Cold sweat pours down my face.

Can anyone tell me how to break this deadlock?

Nine-Tailed Fox walked to Fang Yan's side, then raised its tail and mercilessly lashed out.

hiss----

After finishing with Fang Yan's cigarette, Nine-Tailed Fox used its telekinesis to lift Fang Yan into the air, allowing him to sit steadily on its back before taking its first steps toward Shuangye Town.

"Wuhu, time to collect the trophy!"

Latias's voice rang out.

Fang Yan turned her head and stared at Latias, who had deliberately exposed himself. "Why didn't you answer me when I called you?"

"Huh? Did you call me? I didn't hear you. My hearing hasn't been working too well lately—"

Latias asked in surprise.

dialect:----

On their way to the venue in Futaba Town, when it was time to receive the award, Fang Yan had Shana and Tomoyo stand with him in the champion's position. Shana and Tomoyo held the fist-shaped trophy together and took a picture with big smiles.

Looking at the trophies Shana and Tomoyo were holding, and then at the five million that had returned to his pocket, Fang Yan was overjoyed.

I never expected that winning the championship would also bring me a prize, and the amount was the same one I had donated.

What's this called! What's mine will always be mine!

Shiba won the second-place prize money and, with a wave of his hand, prepared to treat Ah Si, Teng Shu, and Lian Wu to a nice meal.

Our contestant, Ah Li, was so moved by the third-place prize money that he shed tears.

Great! After days of anxiety, I finally passed the dojo assessment and even received a substantial bonus. Now I can treat myself to a nice meal! Woohoo!

After saying goodbye to everyone, Fang Yan led Cynthia and the others on a leisurely stroll around Twinleaf Town. Normally, since Cynthia doesn't disguise herself, showing her face would easily cause traffic congestion, so they haven't had a proper chance to explore Twinleaf Town during the tournament. Today, Cynthia dressed up specially just to enjoy Twinleaf Town.

Fang Yan looked at Cynthia walking beside him, wearing a black baseball cap and a Garchomp mask, and realized that no one around them recognized her.

Is the disguise really that good?

Fang Yan was filled with immense doubt.

He had been wondering why no one could recognize Kojiro and the others in their disguises, but after seeing Cynthia's disguise today, he realized that most people in the world are face-blind.

Seeing that no one recognized Cynthia, Fang Yan stopped thinking about these things and simply took Cynthia's hand, wandering among the various merchants.

Mrs. Fujino and Mr. Fujino have long since gone off to enjoy their time alone, and Shana and Tomoyo have also taken a bunch of cute kids off to freeload, so only Fang Yan and Cynthia remain.

"Hey shopkeeper, would you like to buy this lady a bouquet of flowers?"

A little girl ran over, holding a bunch of wildflowers growing by the roadside in her arms. Although they were different varieties, they were all beautiful.

"All included."

Fang Yan was very generous, buying them all with a wave of his hand. Then, under Cynthia's expectant gaze, he gave the flowers to Garchomp, Gothic, Skirt, Ninetales, Mighty, and Latias.

Feeling Cynthia's murderous glare behind him, Fang Yan naturally turned around and walked towards Cynthia. "You know what? You deserve the most beautiful flower in the world."

"Oh?"

Cynthia tilted her head and squinted.

"Want to know what it is?"

Cynthia remained silent, simply staring intently at Fang Yan.

Fang Yan felt a chill run from his heels to the top of his head. He swallowed hard, shifting his attention away from the scythe against his neck. He looked at Cynthia, grinned, and said, "How about this, I'll perform a magic trick for you. I'll conjure up the most beautiful flower in the world for you."

Cynthia was curious, so she gestured to Garchomp, and Garchomp then retracted the scythe from Fang Yan's shoulder.

"Look, I have nothing in my hands right now, right? I'll count to three, and the most beautiful flower in the world will appear in my hands."

"three.

""

'

""

Cynthia held her breath and concentrated intently.

"one.

""

Fang Yan grasped Cynthia's hand, while his other hand remained empty.

"?"

Fang Yan raised his hand, which was holding Cynthia's, and said, "Look, the most beautiful flower in the world is right here."

Miss Gothic behind: ————

It chose to close its eyes.

Miss Skirt, sitting on the back of the nine-tailed fox, covered her mouth and couldn't stop laughing.

Cynthia took a deep breath, then smiled at Fang Yan: "Although you're right, you still can't escape—"

"Clang clang~"

Fang Yan suddenly stretched out his other hand, and an extremely beautiful Gracenta flower appeared before Cynthia's eyes.

"How was it? Were you startled? Isn't it beautiful? This is the most beautiful Grancidia flower in the breeding house."

Fang Yan grinned.

Cynthia looked at the golden Gracenta flower before her with tender eyes.

"I picked it on purpose. It's the only golden flower in the whole backyard, just like your hair, charming and beautiful."

""

He spoke in a dialect.

Cynthia pretended not to have seen what she had just witnessed: a chubby little hand reached out from the shadows behind Fang Yan and placed a flower in Fang Yan's hand.

"Thanks."

Cynthia took the Gramcidia flower and held it to her nose. Even through the mask, the Gramcidia flower's unique fragrance could still be smelled through it.

Do you know what the Gracenta flower symbolizes?

Fang Yan asked.

Cynthia paused for a moment, "What is it? Gratitude?"

Fang Yan nodded, then reached out to smooth the hair on her face and said softly, "That's right, I'm grateful that you appeared in my life."

Cynthia looked at Fang Yan, her beautiful eyes slowly widening and filling with tears, followed by her ears turning bright red.

"————Thank you————"

Cynthia lowered her head. "Me too—me too—"

After speaking, Cynthia held the Grancidia flower and walked forward with her head down.

Fang Yan was somewhat shocked to see Cynthia looking a little helpless.

It seems that cheesy pickup lines still have a way of winning over people in this world!

Garchomp watched from behind, gritting its teeth.

Gengar, meanwhile, kept comforting it, trying to win it over with all sorts of delicious treats and food.

Fang Yan caught up with Cynthia, and the two strolled around until they encountered Shiba and his two companions who had just come out of a noodle shop.

"Looks like you guys really like this ramen?"

Fang Yan watched them walk out of the noodle shop and spoke.

Apart from that one evening when they were invited to the breeding house for dinner, they ate at this noodle shop the entire time for the past few days.

"It's delicious, we all like it."

Shiba nodded, still wanting more.

"Right? We still have plenty of food in Futaba Town. If you're not in a hurry, you can stay and play for a few more days."

"No, we're getting ready to go back."

Shiba shook his head and refused. He looked at Fang Yan and said, "When is the next martial arts tournament? Remember to invite me."

Upon hearing Shiba's question, Fang Yan thought for a moment and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be once a year, or maybe once every three years. After all, organizing this kind of competition is really tiring."

Shiba nodded. It was indeed difficult to organize such a high-level competition, mainly because it was hard to find strong participants.

"Then remember to invite me next time you hold one."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely invite you. But let me make it clear beforehand, there are no appearance fees for the competitions I host."

"Need not."

Shiba shook his head, indicating that he did not need an appearance fee. "If you need me to perform in an exhibition match next time, you can contact me for free, but you must hold a martial arts tournament."

Fang Yan looked at Shiba in front of him and realized that he was indeed a man who loved fighting.

It's a deal.

Fang Yan extended his fist and bumped it with Shiba's.

He quite liked Shiba; after all, men who were fighters weren't complicated and were the easiest to understand.

After saying goodbye to Shiba and the others, Aya also came over to say goodbye.

"Master, I'm going back to the Galar region to continue my training. I'll definitely be stronger when we meet again."

"come on."

Watching Aya's departing figure, Cynthia said, "She's quite competitive."

Fang Yan nodded, "Same as me."

Surprisingly, Cynthia didn't refute this time; instead, she wholeheartedly agreed.

The two walked to the beach and found Mayor Qiyi and Officer Jenny there, maintaining order in the area. Wusong was also there.

Fang Yan and Cynthia walked up to Mayor Qi Yi and Officer Jenny, who were resting, and greeted them.

"Sister Xiaoye, remember to clean up the trash left behind in time, so as not to attract the stinky mud and double-explosive gas again."

The dialect reminded him.

Don't worry.

Miss Officer Jenny yawned. "I gave the order a long time ago."

Fang Yan looked at the beaming Mayor Qi Yi and asked, "Mayor, how's the town's income these past few days?"

Mayor Qi Yi replied with a smile, "It's alright. The main reason is that the residents' income has increased. Apart from the part they voluntarily donated to build the venue, I estimate that every resident who set up a stall has made a lot of money. After all, tens of thousands of people have come here in the past few days."

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether we earn a lot or a little money these days. The most important thing is that our Shuangye Town is starting to be noticed by people from all over the region. This way, if we want to hold a large-scale event next time, more people will come to participate, and the residents will have a new source of income."

At this point, Mayor Qi Yi shook his head regretfully, "It's just a pity that Shuangye Town doesn't have the same beautiful scenery as Ling Town, otherwise we could have developed tourism."

"Unlike Sandstone Town, it doesn't have a Pokémon professor in charge."

Cynthia glanced at Fang Yan, who shook his head.

Even if he becomes a Pokémon Professor, it won't matter, because he's not from Twinleaf Town, and the breeding center isn't located in Twinleaf Town.

"Our Futaba Town is right by the sea, so we could develop fishing services, hold more large-scale fishing competitions or water marathons. And aren't there a lot of small islands around here? We could develop them and turn them into resorts, just like the Alola region."

He offered his suggestion in dialect.

"That's a good idea. We'll give it a try. We won't lose anything anyway. However, we probably can't develop the surrounding islands. The ownership of those islands is in the hands of the Alliance. We could probably lease them, but we can't contact anyone in the Alliance."

Mayor Qiyi spoke up in response.

"Gosatsu-san."

Fang Yan called out to Wu Song, who was turning to leave.

When Wusong heard Fang Yan call his name, he stiffened, hesitated for a moment, and then walked over resignedly.

When he walked over and heard Mayor Qiyi say that he couldn't contact the Alliance members, he already sensed something was wrong and turned to leave, but Fang Yan called him back.

"Can you do me a favor?"

Wusong looked at Cynthia and said, "Big Sister is the Champion, I'm just a Champion."

Cynthia immediately followed up on Gosho's words, "You know, I'm very busy with work."

Wu Song:? ? ?

you?

Busy with work?

Ah? ? ?

Upon hearing Cynthia's words, Wusong sighed wearily.

The boss said this because he didn't want to do it himself.

After all, this matter is really troublesome to handle and involves many procedures.

But what can I do? I'm just an employee, responsible to my boss.

"This matter is actually quite complicated, not as simple as you imagine."

Gosho explained, as the man most familiar with all sorts of affairs in the Sinnoh League, he knew all too well the intricacies involved.

"That's why I need your help."

Fang Yan said with a smile.

"It's not that I don't want to—"

"The tea leaves will be ready soon. Once they're processed, I'll give you a year's supply. I'll send them to you whenever you finish them."

"This is not tea—"

"Miss Goth has recently researched a herbal tea that can effectively improve eye fatigue, and also a herbal tea that can make hair smoother, improve scalp, and promote hair growth."

"In addition, the Queen Bee also brewed a sweet drink that can help you sleep."

"I can help—"

"What snacks do you want next time? I'll have the Pokémon at the breeding center deliver them to you that very night. Desserts are fine too, I guarantee they'll arrive the same day."

"Finally, I'll give you a small jar of each quality of sweet treat as a bonus."

"Hey, this is Wusong. I have something I'd like to discuss with you—"

Seeing Wusong walk aside and make a phone call, Fang Yan raised an eyebrow at Cynthia beside him.

It's as if to say: See, getting him to agree to work overtime is such an easy thing.

Cynthia: ————

Anyway, even if I don't have that thing, I can still make him work overtime.

Wu Song was actually prepared to agree when Fang Yan brought out the herbal tea that promotes hair growth, but Fang Yan kept adding more to the deal, so Wu Song had no choice but to deal with the matter on the spot.

There was no way around it; they gave us way too much.

Anyone who has eaten the food from the nursery knows, especially how sweet it is.

Even if you have money, you might not be able to buy it.

Wu Song: Today? You're asking me why I'm working overtime again today? I'm working overtime voluntarily today.

Wusong: Aoki? What does he have to compare with me? I get extra pay for working overtime, plus all sorts of delicious food and various kinds of tea.

Wu Song: More importantly, I'm not afraid of losing all my hair, unlike him who has a shiny forehead.

Wusong: Besides, I'm not afraid of ruining my health. The breeding center has a lot of things that can help me recover. How can he compare to me? Not only is his work ability inferior to mine, but his treatment is also not as good as mine. This time, I completely win.
