It all starts with helping Pokémon

Chapter 173 Gurusha Who Fell Headfirst into a Snowdrift

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and the treasure hunting activities were not held every night. Although Hoshino and his team had some accidents, in order to carry out the activities normally, ten people continued to participate in the end.

They went through another round of treasure hunting within three days, and the last six went to the next round. As long as they completed another round, they could meet other treasure hunters and start the final round of treasure hunting competition.

Of course, even the fairy queen couldn't find the details of the last round, and Hoshino didn't know where to go and what to look for.

However, luck will not always be good, but it will not always be bad. During the second round of treasure hunting, no accidents happened, but after walking around the entire ruins, only two treasure chests were found.

Sure enough, without the protection and management of powerful guys like the Snow Demon Girl, these guys are very timid and dare not gather too many.

But these two treasure chests, Suo Cailing, gave quite a lot of gold coins. Suo Cailing's gold-plating progress has reached 88.8%, and 12 more gold coins can directly reach 90%, so Hoshino simply didn't wait.

The start of the next round of treasure hunting will be tomorrow night, so he really doesn't want to wait. It's the same as bargaining at night and night. It's so close at the end that it's easy to arouse people's urgency. I feel like I can't wait to fill it up soon.

So he took advantage of his free time today and walked towards the halfway up the Shuangmo Mountain. The Shuangmo Mountain Gymnasium is also a ski resort, which is considered a tourist attraction, and it is also the closest place to him...

"It's so cold..."

Halfway up the mountain, Hoshino hugged Xin Yemao tightly and shivered. Although the sun was shining now, the temperature was still around minus 10°C.

At this time, the Motor Lizard was unwilling to come out, but he just came over and walked around to withdraw all the deposits. Besides, the procedures have been contacted and processed in advance with the other party, just go and sign.

It is not a holiday now, and there are not many tourists coming to Shuangmo Mountain to ski, but the gymnasium is also built here, which means that there will be challengers coming.

Gym trainer Gu Luxia of Shuangmoshan, it is said that he used to be the world's second-ranked professional snowboarder, but retired due to an accidental serious injury, and finally returned here to work as a gym trainer.

Obviously, he is an ice major and is also a professional skier, but when he saw the other party's outfit a few days ago, he was even more afraid of the cold than him, which was outrageous, so Hoshino said that the other party had a personality.

"I can't stand it, I can't stand it..."

He shivered again, and then ran towards the Pokémon Bank in the distance. He was still wearing too little clothes. He didn't expect to go to Frost Mountain for the winter at first, and he didn't buy winter clothes.

After running into the bank, the heating is provided here, and the body is instantly warmed up. It doesn't matter if Xinye is hugged by him, as long as there is sunlight, it can carry out photosynthesis, and it is not afraid of the cold at all...

"Welcome! What kind of business do you want to handle? We can..."

"It was agreed yesterday, the one who withdraws the money."

"Mr. Hoshino, right? Please show your trainer certificate or ID card. We need to verify your identity first."

"Ah."

The amount of money withdrawn this time is too large, and all of them are converted into equivalent coins, so these are necessary procedures. In this era of universal mobile payment, it is more troublesome to withdraw so much cash at one time, but it will be no problem if the procedures are done well. up.

When he followed the bank staff to verify his identity and withdraw the money, Xinye Miao stayed in the lobby and waited temporarily. This was also to prevent someone from using Pokémon to steal money.

"Ji-Wah-Wah~"

Suo Cailing is looking forward to it more and more. He is already fantasizing about what will happen after he is the first to complete the goal. Hoshino told him about the evolution of the Qixi statuette. In fact, he is not clear about what it will evolve into, but he is sure. handsome!
Xin Ye Miao jumped onto the chair, then lay down and waited. Geng Gui sat next to it, and the Pope dolphin ran out. It didn't like to blow on the heater.

As time passed, Suo Cailing couldn't keep his composure, so he began to stroll around the bank, habitually looking for coins dropped by anyone, after all, this is a bank.

"Gengar?"

Seeing it running around, Geng Gui immediately followed, because he was afraid that it would accidentally do something bad in this kind of place.

So the two of them started wandering around in the bank lobby, but the place was cleaned every day, and it was impossible for them to pick up coins, so they were simply passing the time and visiting here.

But at the corner on the side of the entrance of the bank, Geng Gui found something interesting and ran over with Suo Cailing.

This is a body surface that reflects the red metallic luster. It looks like a robot that appeared in Locust Man. Its legs are like skis, and then it kicks and sits in the corner.

"Wow?"

Suo Cailing tilted his head. As ghost-type Pokémon, they can feel life energy, but this thing in front of him obviously has no life energy, which means it is not a living body, but it gives them a very strange feeling. a feeling of.

"Gengar..."

Geng Gui didn't know, so he was curious, so he brought it over to have a look. However, a bank staff member found them here, so he came over and introduced them kindly.

"It's not real. It's just a decorative cyber-style messenger bird. It's very handsome. It's obviously not damaged. I don't know who shouldn't throw it away. They picked it up before and put it here."

"Jiuuuuuuuuu..."

Suo Cailing understood, and nodded. It turned out that it was just an ornament like a statue.

But this thing is really handsome, and I don't know if my body will reflect the metal light like this after I evolve.

It and Geng Gui looked at it curiously for a while, then left, leaving this cyber-style decoration similar to the messenger bird here.

It's just that when they turned and left, the eyes of this unidentified metal messenger bird, which had completely dimmed, suddenly lit up, and the pupils flickered like a dot pattern, and then disappeared instantly...

After a while, Hoshino and the bank staff came out from behind pushing a bag full of coins. All their belongings were here. This is the weight they gained after working hard for so long!
"I'm also a step up knight!"

Hoshino dragged the bags vigorously, but these were much heavier than he imagined, and there was more than one bag, so it was impossible to carry it down.

He had no other choice, he could only find a hotel in Shuangmo Mountain to stay for one night, and then rush back before the treasure hunt started tomorrow night.

Although he doesn't have any money now, he is the acting student council president of the college, so it is enough to brush his face, and the principal will reimburse the rest.

With the help of the motorcycle lizard, he finally brought these bags full of coins to a nearby hotel, then hid in the room, threw them into the Suo Cailing small vault, and plated them with gold.

With so many coins, it will take at least half a day to absorb them all, so they can only stay in this hotel first, and dare not go out at all, it is too cold.

"Ji-Wah-Wah~"

Suo Cailing jumped into the small vault and began to plate gold slowly, and time slowly began to pass...

In a blink of an eye, the sky has gradually dimmed. Standing by the window, I can still see the moon appearing. There is no abnormal weather tonight, and the scenery of the Shuangmo Mountain is good.

After such a long time of gold-plating, Suo Cailing's gold-plating progress has reached 97.3%, and there are still a lot of coins left, which should be enough.

"Come on, sleep should be enough."

Hoshino also slowly began to look forward to it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sleep at all, because he wanted to see with his own eyes the moment when Suo Cailing evolved into Sai Fuhao.

As for Xin Ye Miao and the others, they have already rested now, and they are the only ones staying up late tonight.

Suo Cailing didn't feel sleepy. Now its body has completely turned into gold, and a steady stream of power began to emerge in its body. It was only a little short, and it seemed to be about to grab something.

Hoshino just waited like this, he didn't even bother to check his mobile phone, and looked at the scenery outside the window from time to time, but from here he looked in the direction of Shuangmo Mountain gymnasium, but there was a figure walking out suddenly.

The other party still wrapped himself tightly, but he was holding a ski in his hand, and deliberately came out when no one was around.

"Huh? What is this doing?"

Hoshino naturally recognized that it was Gu Luxia, but he didn't expect that the other party would run out at night. Didn't it mean that after retiring from serious injuries, he stopped skiing?But this is clearly still skiing secretly...

He became inexplicably interested, so he left the hotel and walked outside. As soon as he stepped out of the hotel door, he shivered instantly and almost retreated.

"Damn, it's really cold..."

After rubbing his hands, he quietly followed behind Gu Luxia who was heading towards the ski resort, wanting to see how the professional player was doing.

Coming to the skis, Guruxia didn't notice that he was being followed. He pushed the scarf, then put the skis on the ground and started to prepare.

"Ok?"

Hoshino hid behind a street lamp not far away, and then watched Gu Luxia get ready and rushed down, so he immediately followed, wondering how professional players would show off their skills, and secretly learned.

When he came to the edge, he was stunned, because there was no such thing as a superb show below, only Gulu Xia who fell into the snow, like an onion upside down.

"Is this a professional player..."

For a moment, Hoshino felt that the information he read on the Internet was fabricated by others. Even if a professional player retires, he wouldn't be inferior to a novice, right?It's not like this for a pure novice to go skiing.

But he immediately retreated and hid, because Gurusha crawled out from the snow, then picked up the fallen skis, and walked back with a blank expression, as if he was used to it, and then repeated it.

"..."

Seeing the other party rushing down and falling into the snow again, Hoshino frowned slightly, feeling that this matter might not be what he thought...
