Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off.

"I'd like to ask if you know anything about this?"

As Blair raised his head slightly, a glint of light flashed across his glasses.

His mouth opened, but he suddenly looked at Apollo, who was sitting quietly drinking tea next to Natsuno: "And who is this?"

Apollo didn't reply. Natsuno smiled and said, "He's my bodyguard, and he keeps his mouth shut."

"You can treat him like he's mute. Speak freely, what kind of secret research is it?"

Apollo remained motionless, as if his world consisted only of the cup of tea in his hand.

Xia Bo gestured to Guang Ning with his eyes, and the latter understood and went into a room.

Half a minute later, he placed a bottle of unknown liquid on the table and then brought over a small glass trough filled with water.

Bob carefully searched through the pile of fossils on the ground and picked up a palm-sized piece of fossilized bone.

Place it directly into the water tank to confirm that the fossil is submerged in the water.

"You must have seen the various ancient fossil skeletons in the Dark Grey Museum, right?"

"Have you ever wondered why they are all individual, complete skeletons, instead of being embedded in stones?"

Xia Ye's eyes lit up as he looked at the bottle of unknown reagent that Xia Bo was holding in his hand.

Is this some kind of cutting-edge technology unique to the Pokémon world? Let's wait and see!

Blair poured one-tenth of the reagent directly into the sink and corrected it again.

Natsuno suddenly took a deep breath and smelled the fragrance of tree fruit.

I leaned over the sink, peering over it with my nose, instinctively wanting to sniff it directly.

Then she suddenly stopped, pulled her nose back out of the sink, as if she had remembered something bad.

I stretched out my hand and waved it above the sink, blowing air into my nose and smelling it a few times.

My nose twitched slightly; it was indeed the scent of some kind of tree fruit.

Without even asking Uncle Xia, the water tank began to stir as the reagent was added.

Numerous tiny bubbles began to rise from the surface of the fossil, and the water gradually darkened in color.

Five minutes later, the commotion gradually subsided, and the water in the sink turned a muddy color.

Having already put on rubber gloves, Blair reached in and scooped out several pieces of broken bone, placing them on the table.

Both Natsuno and Apollo, who had never met him before, had their eyes light up: they didn't understand, but they were deeply shocked.

Xia Ye took the gloves Xia Bo handed him, put them on, and fished them out of the slightly murky water tank.

The stone has disappeared. Occasionally, you can touch some small fragments, but when you take them out, they are just small pieces of bone.

Natsuno made an "O" shape with his mouth and gave Blair a thumbs up.

Pokémon's cutting-edge technology is amazing! Give us more!

Xia Bo took a sip of the now-cold tea: "I discovered this reagent by accident a few years ago, and its effects are surprisingly good."

Natsuno thought about how the reagent smelled like tree fruit and couldn't help but speculate.

Although we don't know the specifics, we can already sense how unexpected it was from the ingredients alone.

Xia Bo was unaware of Xia Ye's thoughts, and looked at the latter with a questioning gaze.

"This reagent is not expensive to produce; it is a mixture of several common reagents and some tree juice."

"So, does it meet your requirements?"

Xia Ye nodded first, and Xia Bo was so excited that he stood up.

But Xia Ye started shaking his head again, unable to figure it out for Xia Bo, and just stood there dumbfounded.

Xia Ye quickly grasped Xia Bo's hand: "Don't worry, you'll definitely be an important member in the fossil resurrection technology!"

Then you can feel Blaine's hand gripping tighter and tighter, he's very excited.

Xia Ye struggled to pull his hand away and then put it behind his back, relaxing it repeatedly.

I was still amazed at how strong and physically robust the people in this world were.

"The basic requirements have been met. As long as the bone can be completely removed, we can find a way to extract the genes."

Xia Bo was grinning from ear to ear and nodded repeatedly.

Natsuno, however, was thinking about something else entirely.

Although Sakaki absolutely refused to let Natsuno see the fossil first, he guessed it was probably still the Dream Eyelash Fossil.

Hair is different from bone; what if it gets dissolved by the reagent?

Or what if the reagent destroys the gene structure inside?

Although destroying the fossils directly is also a way to prevent Giovanni from achieving his ambitions.

But given that old man's cautious nature, how could he allow Natsuno to use the reagent directly on the dreamlike fossil?

With that in mind, Natsuno voiced his thoughts.

"But there is another problem, and this problem is very important."

"Will this reagent damage the hair? Although the number of hair fossils is very small, there must be some, right?"

At first, Xia Bo was worried that Xia Ye would ask some super difficult question, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the question.

"Don't worry, it's perfectly fine. We've tested it on hair before, and it won't cause any damage."

"Although I didn't know the significance of preserving hair before, I understand now with your theory."

Natsuno beamed with joy upon hearing this, praising him in his heart once again, while Apollo beside him couldn't suppress his laughter either.

"Is this stuff easy to make? If it's not too much trouble, just tell me the recipe. I'm too lazy to carry a whole bucket back."

As Xia Ye spoke, he took out his phone, and Uncle Xia also took out his phone.

The two added each other as friends and exchanged contact information. Xia Bo sent the recipe to Xia Ye's account.

Natsuno was very pleased to see that a solution had been found for the problem.

“Mr. Blair, you can go to the Devon Group’s Kanto regional headquarters to find Daigo in a few days.”

"Just say it was my idea; the fossil resurrection technology would be a great loss without your involvement!"

Xia Bo and Xia Ye shook hands again, with the former turning directly to look at his disciple.

"Let's not wait a couple more days, I can't sit still any longer, let's go now!"

"Guangning, pack what we need. We're heading to Dark Grey in a bit!"

Guangning, with a troubled expression, carefully advised, "Teacher, if you go to Dark Gray to do research, what will happen to the Crimson Lotus Dojo?"

Xia Ye suddenly realized: Oh right, Uncle Xia also has a side job as the head of the Crimson Lotus Dojo.

Why is he here at the research institute so early in the morning? Doesn't he have the dojo to manage? He's even more free than Giovanni?

Blair waved his hand repeatedly: "Anyway, it's unlikely that any challengers will come to Crimson Lotus Island for ten days or half a month."

“In the past, many people would challenge the Viridian Gym as the seventh, and then come over from Pallet Town to challenge the Cinnabar Gym as the last one.”

"It's fine if they go for a month or two. Just have the apprentices below be strict and make things difficult for the challengers."

"If there are really some outstanding players, I can just come back again when I have some free time."

Natsuno thought to himself, "Wow! No wonder he's so free, he can even voluntarily increase the difficulty of the challenge."

Playing like this, aren't you afraid of making people depressed?

Realizing it had nothing to do with him, Natsuno smiled and said goodbye to Xia Bo, then returned to the Evergreen Dojo with Apollo.

Before we even landed, we saw a long line below the dojo, which originated from the research lab in the backyard.

Dr. Fuji was maintaining order with several dojo students.

Upon seeing Natsuno land, the former's expression lit up, and he quickly walked over.

"Natsuno, you're back? Did you get results?"

Chapter 77 New Problems Arise

"Can we start resurrecting fossils now?"

Dr. Fuji's eyes were brimming with excitement as he gripped Natsuno's shoulders tightly.

Xia Ye struggled to break free and nodded repeatedly: "I have an idea. I've already sent them to Dewen to start."

Seeing the long line in the backyard, starting from the entrance of the research lab and stretching all the way outside the dojo.

Some people saw Natsuno and started taking out their phones to confirm his face.

After comparing them repeatedly, it let out a surprised cry and ran up to find Natsuno.

Seeing that things were not going well, Natsuno quickly pulled Fuji into the research lab.

Looking out the window at the long line, I couldn't help but ask a question.

"By the way, wasn't the dojo closed? Could this be your doing, Professor?"

Fuji smiled and pointed, and Natsuno then noticed the corridor outside the laboratory.

There are two tables set up here, and several people in white coats are registering and collecting data.

People in line stepped forward to release their Pokémon, which were then handed over to staff to have parts such as hair collected.

The collected samples will be packaged and sent to the laboratory for preservation, awaiting use as samples for gene sequencing.

Afterwards, those who have collected the information can go outside, where people will distribute energy cubes.

Fuji raised an eyebrow at Natsuno: "So, you wanted to collect genetic data, didn't you?"

"Let's just have everyone send their Pokémon over, and give each sample a level 20 Energy Cube."

"Everyone from the neighborhood has come. It saves us time and effort, and we don't have to go out into the wild. Isn't that great?"

Fuji suddenly realized something, and his expression turned distressed.

"By the way, one machine can only test 3 samples at a time, and it takes half an hour to test one sample."
