Ditto doesn't move

What I lack is a house, a big house?

No, no.

Have you ever heard of the modern legends about so-called "invincible people"?

As long as the most basic survival needs are met and one lets go of attachments, the ancient proverb "He who has no desires is invincible" will be proven true. By shedding the shackles of the three mountains of housing, cars, and marriage, one can gain a completely free life.

This is precisely how modern people, through the trials of life, confront their desires, identify the source of their suffering, and find the true path to happiness.

The smallest unit of strength is to carry out one's own will, and so is happiness.

But different worlds have different paths.

Therefore, Xia Ming's dream of a happy life is certainly not like that of Pokémon, who live a life of hardship, eating tree fruits when hungry and drinking spring water when thirsty.

Having Pokémon is great, but that doesn't mean giving up food, games, music, and funny online friends.

Xia Ming, a modern man, possesses such terrifying greed!

Thus, it is quite clear that a place to live is merely one of the prerequisites for being considered human.

As the man pedaling the bicycle thought of this, he suddenly felt his mind and body become clear. In terms of martial arts, he had already entered the realm of tranquility and clarity, as if the God of War had completed a sublimation of his realm before the final battle.

Fight the right battle! Fight for a happy future! Fight for economic freedom! Fight for spiritual fulfillment!

Fight for your own pride, for the encounters and meetings, for the expectations and trust, whether they understand or not!

War! War! War!

Today, the Benevolent Dark Emperor will fight his first battle!

Walking confidently into the police headquarters, Xia Ming, the martial god, completed the handover and clocking in in one go. He then grabbed the trainee girl and a few Jun Sha girls who were left unattended and headed for the nearest barbecue restaurant.

Even after sitting in a private booth in the store's main hall, the trainee girl was still a little confused and scratched her head:

"Senior, didn't we agree that we'd treat? By the way, where's Riolu?"

"I sent it to the doctor's house." Xia Mingwu picked up a piece of watermelon that the shopkeeper had served first and chuckled. "You want to treat me to a meal, probably because you think the reward you offer is not worth the training insights I give, but that's not anything of value."

It's just something a Pokémon enthusiast who couldn't get their hands on compiled in their imagination. The fact that it has any practical effect is just a pleasant surprise. Even if you wrote a novel about it, it's unlikely anyone would read it.

The girls exchanged glances and inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

Such a straightforward conversation is definitely in line with the style of a senior colleague.

"So I invited you here to get your opinions and suggestions. I have other important business to attend to."

Haha, is this to comfort us and tell us not to worry too much about the value of training experiences?

suki~

As the saying goes, one-sided giving and shameless demands will only plant a time bomb; give and take is the normal way for people in society to communicate.

The girls, who were already a little embarrassed, finally felt relieved and even somewhat relieved.

Although they can't be of much help in training, when it comes to other miscellaneous matters, who would dare to speak so arrogantly to us seasoned frontline personnel?

Seniors, we will definitely not let you down!!!

Bring it up quickly!

The competitive crab, who works at the barbecue restaurant, carried a plate in each hand, bringing over chopped vegetables and meat. The staff standing next to him immediately smiled and helped him grill the meat.

The sizzling sound, along with the aroma of grilled meat, immediately wafted over.

Xia Ming glanced at the menu on the wall without making it obvious, and after confirming that the prices were not too high and were within his acceptable range, he invited the others to start grilling and eating first, and at the same time told them the purpose of his trip.

"Do you know where I can find a cheap and comfortable house for rent? It doesn't need to be too big, even a single room will do."

"Oh right, senior, you're new to Alola, right?"

The trainee clapped her hands in surprise, and then saw her relatives and sisters eating heartily without any restraint, so she quickly picked up her chopsticks.

As night approached, the atmosphere at the barbecue restaurant became lively and bustling with the increasing number of people. The noisy chatter, accompanied by the sound of meat juices bubbling in the oil, made people unconsciously let their guard down, just like at a street food stall.

Taking a bite of grilled meat wrapped in lettuce, feeling the fresh heat and wonderful taste, with a hint of sweetness from the lettuce to cut through the richness, is truly refreshing.

Barbecue, forever the best.

"We have as many rental apartments as you want, but the key point is that they're cheap!"

Although they look alike, just like Pokémon, different Kimi have different personalities.

There are energetic ones, calm ones, shy ones, and buddy-like ones. In addition to Junsa, who doesn't care much about other people's opinions, they also dye their hair different colors and wear different styles of accessories according to their own preferences.

They still look like a group of twin sisters laughing together, but after a little contact, you can tell each one apart by their different personalities.

Junsa, who made the teasing remark, has a rather outgoing personality, and for this reason, she even added a fiery red highlight to her forehead:

"I heard that the branch manager originally planned to give you an extremely rare miniature dragon, but you only asked for a few pieces of fruit and asked for a day's wages in advance..."

"That's right, I've heard about it too."

"It seems the branch secretary slammed his fist on the table several times in frustration in his office, scaring the tourists who came to do business into thinking they had made a big mistake."

Once the conversation started, the girls began chattering and laughing.

How could being teased about embarrassing things affect Xia Ming's state of mind? Compared to his buddies' late-night talks in the dormitory, this level of torture was far too mild.

"After all, I was penniless before I received my salary."

Without a shred of remorse, Xia Ming, the Martial God, easily defeated the challenger who tried to snatch a piece of fine pork belly from under his chopsticks.

"So the problem isn't the house, it's money and immigration status."

The loser pouted: "Put down that piece of pork belly! I can lend you some of my savings!"

Ha, they're all so shrewd. They probably already had a plan when I mentioned wanting to rent a cheap place. Only the clueless intern was completely oblivious.

The God of War sneered.

Ha, I, Xia Ming, am not the kind of person who treats people to meals just to borrow money!

“I have an idea, and I wonder if you all would like to hear it?” he said loudly.

P.S.: I wasn't entirely satisfied with the initial draft of this chapter, so I revised it.

Book 1 The Happy Little Ditto: Chapter 32 The Idea King Arrives

Caw! If it's Xia Ming, the Martial God, he must possess astonishing wisdom!

Junsha and her friends sat around Xia Ming, grilling meat and drinking beer together while casting expectant glances at him.

"What do you guys think of the job of picking up corpses?" Xia Ming took the lettuce and grilled meat package from the trainee girl with interest: "Don't those novice trainers often overestimate themselves and provoke powerful trainers and wild Pokémon?"

"When they encounter a powerful opponent and cannot defeat them despite their best efforts, won't they suddenly faint and lose consciousness?"

"I kindly dragged them back to the Pokémon Center, so it's reasonable for me to take half of the money I had on me."

Damn! (Alorain)

The smiles of the Junsha ladies froze for a moment without prior agreement.

Tell me, isn't this a groundbreaking wisdom?

"Well..." Jun Sha, with her red-streaked bangs, chuckled and said, "Although I'm doing a good deed, it always feels like I'm taking advantage of your kindness."

Damn it, why are you taking my money when I'm playing games?! I saved it up little by little by playing matches!

"The key point is that there are actually quite a few trainers in Alola. Besides, why would your vision go black after losing a battle? Most trainers still take their Pokémon to the Pokémon Center for treatment."

The somewhat timid and reserved Jun Sha raised her hand and asked.

Tch, doesn't it cause your vision to go black?

But that's okay, I have plenty of other ideas!!!

Hey ~

Xia Ming's eyes gleamed, and he extended his index finger, pointing upwards beside his head:

"Since the previous idea didn't work, I have a new one."

"I see you all work hard patrolling all day. Why don't we just train a large number of flying Pokémon specifically to patrol the Alola region? That way, the officers on duty can be deployed immediately if anything happens."

"I am not very talented, but I do have a little bit of experience in large-scale training."

"Then why don't we just install surveillance cameras in various locations?"

Blanch!

This time it was Xia Ming's turn to be stunned. I was speechless about this question, and even felt that it was quite correct.

"Senior, we are now using a combination of surveillance and patrols."

The trainee girl lowered her voice to remind him, but it seemed to be to comfort Xia Ming:

"However, the monitoring is also a bit troublesome because it can be easily destroyed by wild Pokémon. Your idea is still very good."

But there was one more thing she didn't say: the key issue is that Pokémon can't make relatively accurate judgments about disputes and conflicts like humans can.

There is a high probability that it will turn into "sounding the alarm whenever there is a dispute", and if even minor skirmishes by wild Pokémon require the staff on duty to be dispatched, it will actually waste police resources.

No, why is it so hard to make quick money?

Even Xia Ming was slightly frustrated at this moment:

"In that case, we have no choice but to activate the backup concealment plan."

Oh, again?

Can't you just honestly borrow some money from us for an emergency? Talk to the branch manager properly and you can even get an advance of a month's money, right? If that doesn't work, don't you still have alliance points? Exchange some rare resources or items from the vault, resell them, and we'll pretend we didn't see it.

The women exchanged glances and communicated using their family's secret method of eye contact.

Confirmed

【Yes】

[This senior...is extremely lacking in common sense!]

It smells even better now!

That makes sense...

"Looks like I'll have to sell my soul..." Xia Ming muttered to himself.

Eh? ? ?

Junsha was greatly alarmed.

Is he going to become an idol?

No, that kind of thing, that kind of thing... it seems kind of exciting.

"I'll be doing some creative activities like copying and pasting."

As Xia Ming spoke, his eyes regained their brilliance, as if he had suddenly realized something.

That's right, so why should I do it myself?

Numerous precedents have shown that gold prospectors sometimes earn less than those who provide the tools.

Those online self-help gurus or mentors who teach others how to do this and that are the real millionaires!

As an idea genius, even if I can't handle things myself, I can sell all sorts of plans to others!

Putting everything else aside, just considering Rotom's groundbreaking mobile app, search engine, and short video website, making money from them would be no problem at all.

Wow, everyone! I've actually experienced the joy of a reborn historical fiction story in the Pokémon world!

No, if you think about it carefully, these ideas don't even need to be sold.

The technical problems that hinder the protagonist of a reincarnation story can be solved very easily in the Pokémon world...

"By the way, the bureau also has a network connection, and that Pokémon in charge of communication technology, right?"

"That one? Which one?"

Tiao Ran Jun Sha was puzzled for a moment, then realized what she meant and said with a sudden realization, "You mean Polygon or Rotom?"

Yes, this is it, this is exactly what I wanted!

3D Dragon, if it's this guy, he might be able to help me become the new world's kamiya!
