On Friday morning, the sun was exceptionally gentle, shining through the window onto the desks. Students walked into the classroom with their backpacks and their respective Pokemon. Although their faces showed a hint of early morning drowsiness, their eyes sparkled with anticipation.
After all, it was almost the weekend again.
Ever since Xiao Mei underwent Mega Evolution, Chen Kai had enjoyed another two weeks of leisure.
During this period, the entire Zi Ning Town was peaceful and tranquil.
However, the outside world had already erupted due to Mega Evolution. Zhao Mingzhu continuously and extensively acquired mega evolution stones and keystones, which triggered a conflict of interest with a certain group in Western Europe.
The result was that a Western European media outlet suddenly revealed that mega evolution stones could allow some Pokemon to evolve again, along with a video of Charizard evolving into a black form. This news caused an uproar among Charizard trainers across the entire Blue Star.
They all wanted to know the method for Charizard's evolution.
At this point, another media outlet revealed: a stone enabled Charizard to successfully evolve.
Seeing that the other party had directly broken the news, Zhao Mingzhu no longer hid it. With the approval of her superiors, she directly uploaded videos of Pokemon like Ampharos, Pidgeot, and Venusaur evolving to the Dragon Kingdom's Alliance website, defining it as Mega Evolution. Subsequently, she also uploaded the general principles, though all required payment.
Afterward, many people who had sold their mega evolution stones and keystones were filled with regret.
Many also privately began to acquire mega evolution stones at high prices, making it difficult for Zhao Mingzhu and other official agencies to collect new mega evolution stones.
Fortunately, they had already collected many mega evolution stones. Currently, only 8 types of stones and their corresponding Pokemon have been identified, and there are still many stones whose corresponding evolutionary targets are unknown. Zhao Mingzhu is already incredibly busy.
Zhao Mingzhu was promoted to Director of Da City Research Institute for her contributions to researching mega evolution stones!
It was a rocket-like promotion.
At the same time, Chen Kai also received a bonus of 100,000 yuan, on the condition that none of his contributions would be recorded.
Chen Kai was completely indifferent to this; he was already very happy with the 100,000 yuan.
Adding to his occasional sales of berries, he had already saved over 400,000 yuan in his pocket.
A few months ago, he couldn't have imagined having so much money. Now, every day he would grin foolishly whenever he thought about his savings.
His deskmate, Su Yuexi, once thought Chen Kai had lost his mind.
“Kai Ge, where are you planning to go for the October holiday?” During class break, Huang Mao, Huang Tianxiang, leaned over and asked.
“I haven't made any arrangements yet,” Chen Kai thought for a moment and said.
“Then how about we go to Zigong for a trip together?” Huang Mao suggested.
Chen Kai was a bit confused: “Zigong? Why suddenly think of going there?”
Huang Mao said longingly: “There are many Rock-type Pokemon there! And it’s possible to encounter fossils!
If you unearth a fossil, there’s a chance to revive ancient Pokemon!”
“We won't be that lucky to find a fossil, will we?” Chen Kai was somewhat uninterested; after all, he knew someone named Dong Gang who had dug for a year without finding anything.
Huang Mao said with a smile: “Hey, just consider it as Wang Yi and I treating you to a trip.”
Recently, through sparring with Chen Kai's Pokemon, Huang Mao's Dwebble and Wang Yi's Wooloo had both reached Normal Class (Level 20).
Training with Teacher Xu couldn't improve them this quickly, so both of them were very grateful to Chen Kai.
“How many days will we go for?” Chen Kai asked.
Huang Mao said: “Zigong is close, so we'll just go for three or four days, not long.”
Chen Kai thought about it. This year's October 1st holiday happened to coincide with the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, making it a total of eight days. Spending four days to travel would be good: “Alright, then I'll respectfully accept. By the way, can we bring one more person?”
“Who?” Huang Mao asked, somewhat surprised.
Chen Kai directly stated: “It’s my deskmate, Su Yuexi. She’s helped me a lot, so I should think of a way to return the favor. I can pay for myself.”
Huang Mao was a bit surprised. He glanced at Su Yuexi, who was chatting with Dipplin. He wondered if Kai Ge and Su Yuexi were that close. However, he didn't think much of it and directly said:
“No problem at all, it’s just a small travel expense, nothing much. It’ll be good for Wang Yi to have another companion.”
Chen Kai smiled and said, “Then thank you very much.”
Originally, he and Su Yuexi were simply classmates, but recently, the fruit trees he transplanted from Area Zero had somewhat withered, possibly due to unfamiliar soil and water or some other reason.
Big Boss was almost frantic, having tried many methods to no avail.
Until one day at school, Su Yuexi heard Chen Kai comforting Dipplin. She offered to help take a look. Last weekend, she went to Chen Kai's house, mixed and made a type of fertilizer, and after fertilizing the fruit trees, they regained their vitality within two days.
Chen Kai turned to her and said, “Su Yuexi, National Day is coming soon. Do you have any plans?”
“I haven't made any arrangements yet,” Su Yuexi thought for a moment and said.
Chen Kai repeated everything Huang Mao had just said.
Su Yuexi was not good with words, so she could only agree to go to Zigong for a few days during the National Day holiday.
Seeing Su Yuexi agree, Chen Kai suddenly remembered: “Also, are you free to come to my house for dinner tonight? Dipplin and the others are very grateful to you, and they’ve specially prepared some food.”
Big Boss also poked his head out:
“Mii!” (You must come!)
“Okay… okay.” Su Yuexi weakly agreed.
When school was dismissed in the afternoon, Chen Kai and Dipplin said again:
“Remember to come!”
“Mii!” (I’ll remember!)
Su Yuexi, holding Oddish, nodded helplessly.
She really couldn't refuse others.
Chen Kai rode on Miraidon's back, returning stylishly to his home on Zining Mountain slope.
Chen Dafu was very efficient, and with the existence of Fighting-type Pokemon in this world, brick-moving efficiency was much faster. In just a few weeks, their house had already been expanded.
The newly expanded rooms were mainly the living room and kitchen. Now that the ceiling height had increased, even Exeggutor could enter the living room.
With the increase in family members, Chen Ma requested that the kitchen also be made larger than before, to satisfy the large appetites of Miraidon and Second Boss.
The remaining two rooms were converted into spacious and bright study rooms, Chen Kai's bedroom, and Miraidon's exclusive bedroom.
Now Chen Kai's room was no longer just a bed and a table. The room had a tall bookshelf filled with various books, and sunlight streamed through the window onto the pages, making one feel as if they could smell the scent of knowledge.
And Miraidon also had its own exclusive room, even more luxurious than Chen Kai's room, containing a computer, a mobile phone, ultra-fast internet, and a large display stand with several crystal balls—Iron Bundle also secretly moved into this room.
Chen Ma doted on Miraidon a lot, and besides, the money for this room came from Miraidon itself. It went to Area Zero to pick berries, earning no less than Chen Kai.
The other room became a comfortable guest room, with soft bedding and exquisite decorations, providing a cozy resting place for visiting guests.
Last time, because of Yelena, they realized there was no guest room at home, so they specially prepared such a room.
However, Chen Kai's family didn't really want Yelena to come again.
But as soon as Chen Kai arrived at his doorstep, both he and Miraidon were stunned.
A white-haired girl with a Dewott was standing at his doorstep again.
It was Yelena.
