Pinnacle of the Stars

Chapter 45 45. The World of the Researcher
"Hey!"

Lu Qiu stuck the shovel into the ground, pulled at the neckline and let out a long breath.

Behind him, Kong Mu held a tile knife, and while trimming the surrounding soil, he also placed the tiles purchased in advance on top of it.

At this time, the two were working in a large pit with a diameter of five meters and a height of about one person. Looking up, several small saw crocodiles were encouraging them with expectant eyes.

"I said Mr. Kongmu." Lu Qiu wiped the dirt on his face with the back of his hand, and said helplessly, "Even if you want to build a pool in the yard, you don't necessarily need us to do it yourself."

Hearing this, Kong Mu turned his head and looked at him slowly, "Do you have rock-type Pokémon?"

"No."

"Then be honest and finish this with me first." While talking, Kong Mu kept moving his hands, "Otherwise, there will always be such a big hole in the yard, and it will look ugly."

"What I mean is, we can go to the town to hire an engineering team. We don't need an engineering team. We can solve this problem with two wrists, right?" Lu Qiu pointed in the direction outside and gestured.

"Recently, I bought all kinds of raw materials for you to practice, and the cost is too high." Kong Mu's hands were covered with tiles, and he sighed, "I'm not like other doctors. I have Pokémon fostered by trainers to help , if we don't do it, don't you want your Xiangwei Cat to do it?"

Outside the pit, the mentioned Xiangwei meow shook his ears, pushed away the little saw crocodiles and took two steps forward, quietly listening to the two idiots talking about him.

Lu Qiu stopped talking. After resting for a while, he picked up the shovel and continued to vigorously repair the pit under his feet.

In this way, the big project that lasted for three days was finally barely completed in the evening of today amidst the encouragement of the two.

Sitting down on the steps in front of the research institute, Lu Qiu, who had taken a shower, received the milk handed over by Kong Mu, and poured it into his mouth in big gulps.

Under Xiang Weimao's push and gesture, he also specially reserved a little bit for the other party.

The Momoo fresh milk produced by the big milk tank was specially ordered from the small town by Kongmu after he came to the research institute on the grounds that he was still growing.

Seeing the little saw crocodile and his own carp king playing around in the pool, Lu Qiu smiled while holding the empty bottle, then turned his head and said to Kong Mu who was sitting next to him: "Mr. The power of the Kamengs, as well as the previous few times, in terms of efficiency alone, it should be faster, right?"

Kong Mu shook his head, "If you do it yourself, sometimes you can better understand the mood of Pokémon. I originally wanted to say this, but it turns out that you don't mean to complain at all."

As he said that, he shrugged and smiled, "Fortunately, I still wanted to tell you what the teacher taught me. Sometimes, seeing you holding a book and concentrating on it, I wonder if you are a young man after all. .”

Lu Qiu held his chin in a daze, and didn't answer for a while.

On the first day after Ah Yu left, Kongmu brought him books that were stacked at least two meters high. In addition to the observation notes drawn by the former himself when he was young, there are more books that are not even seen on the market. Celebrity works that can't be seen.

Among them, the name Damu Xuecheng took up half of them.

It is said to be a work, but under the luxuriously framed book cover, it is all casual venting when the interest comes, and sometimes there is not even a punctuation mark in the middle.

Therefore, when Lu Qiu was flipping through these books, most of the time, he was speculating on the emotions they had when they wrote that line of text.

such as:

'The more powerful the Pokémon is, the more it can mobilize the power of this world. Mountains, rivers, earth, lava, meteors, and humans who can break through the mysteries can guide Pokémon to learn the corresponding skills and moves. '

Surrounding the sentence on the title page, after dismantling and recording his own theory in the whole book, Dr. Zilan wrote at the end 'I successfully taught the round land shark to use the powerful move of the Dragon Meteor. Different, all colleagues are welcome to come to discuss and discuss such arrogant words.

In a word, Lu Qiu yearned for that doctor whom he had never met before.

There is also Kongmu's alumnus, researcher Zhenghui who once refused to accept the title of doctor, wrote in his pen:
"The necessity of the Pokémon storage system is far greater than that of the trainer itself. Unrestricted loss of control will only bring more disasters. Six is ​​the optimal option after calculation. '

This person wrote down and perfected the rationality of the point of view in the book, including a series of applications that need to be made when the limit is exceeded, etc. Even Dr. Pokémon needs to hold a large number of Pokémon for research. It is necessary to divide the scope of authority for it'.

From Zhenghui's works, Lu Qiu read a bit of pain, and thinking about it made him feel depressed all day long.

After roughly reading all the works in his hand, Lu Qiu found something in common among these researchers.

- A strong desire for something.

"Lu Qiu, your understanding and learning ability are far superior to mine at the same age. To be honest, I don't have much to teach you."

Looking at the young man who raised his chin and looked at the pool in a daze, Kong Mu said softly, "But as an older senior, you are still ahead of me in terms of experience and avoiding detours."

Lu Qiu blinked, "Yes, Mr. Kongmu, you are a genius."

"I'm not showing off to you." Kong Mu shook his head and said: "It's not a good thing that the growth path is smooth sailing. Once such a person encounters obstacles on the road ahead, he will inevitably have crooked thoughts."

"And precisely because you are a genius, the consequences of having a crooked idea are even more terrifying. Lu Qiu, you are such a genius."

Lu Qiu looked at him suspiciously, a little incomprehensible.

"Don't underestimate me, no matter what, we have been together day and night for almost two months." Kong Mu looked at him and said, "That's why I want to teach you, research must be down-to-earth, step by step."

"Mr. Kongmu, I don't quite understand." Lu Qiu asked directly without pretending to be stupid.

"For example this." As he said that, Kong Mu took off an oval pendant from under the skirt of his chest, and waved it in front of Lu Qiu to show it to him.

"What is this?" Lu Qiu asked doubtfully, holding the pendant in his hand.

"The failed product of the experiment is a souvenir." Kongmu squinted and smiled, "Every time I encounter a bottleneck, it will remind me not to go astray."

Hearing what he said, Lu Qiu looked at the pendant even more curiously.

'The material should be glass, is it a similar synthetic product, it looks harder. '

The inside of the pendant is a hollow structure, and through the setting sun at this moment, you can see a drop of liquid shaking around with the pendant inside.

Pink, crystal clear.

It seems that you can smell the faint fragrance it emits through the glass.

"Mr. Kongmu, what is the function of this drop of liquid inside?" Lu Qiu stroked the pendant with his thumb, turned his head and asked, "Is it some kind of potion used by Pokémon? Judging by the color, it should be mixed with a small dose of magic powder." Sister Lip's saliva."

Kong Mu smiled but did not answer.

"It's a little too early for you to talk about these things."

Hearing this, Lu Qiu nodded slowly.

'Is the knowledge involved too deep? '

"After all, you're still a child."

".?"

Lu Qiu was taken aback, and a question mark slowly appeared on his head, "I'm going to be 13 soon."

"When I'm 23, I'll teach you how to do this."

With that said, Kong Mu reached out and took back the pendant in Lu Qiu's hand.

"It's going to snow here, just in time, I need you to go to Kanto." While hanging the pendant back around his neck, he said, "Just stay there for a while. Continue to fight with my Pokémon here. , there is no way to make your Xiangwei Meow and Carp King grow up."

Lu Qiu nodded, "What does Mr. Kongmu need me to do?"

"Remember that I told you before that I assisted in making the Pokémon Illustrated Book." Kong Mu pointed out, "Regarding the research on the evolutionary relationship between Pichu and Pikachu, I have recently published relevant information After sorting it out, you help me take it to Guandu and give it to Dr. Oki, and send him a sample for me by the way."

"sample?"

"The one you proposed to me at the beginning, Pikachu carrying an electric ball may allow future generations to learn a sample of the 'volt attack' move." Kong Mu explained: "A few days ago, my assistant gave birth to an egg, and after it agreed , when you go, help me hand over the eggs to Dr. Oki."

"I understand."

Lu Qiu nodded.

With a heart-shaped tail, he knew that Pikachu was a female.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back to eat." After finishing speaking, Kong Mu stood up and stretched his waist, looked at the pool built by himself in front of him and said proudly:

"These days, they are building houses and pools, so they're saving money for your boat ticket."

Lu Qiu: "."
