Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

Lin Yi walked out of the Trainer's Association silently, with a helpless expression and the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

"Although I'm mentally prepared, this price is too outrageous, isn't it?"

Lin Yi muttered to himself, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.

The mega stones stored in the Magic City Trainer Association branch were already scarce, and what was worse was that most of them were not what he urgently needed.

He finally found a Lucario mega stone, but when he looked at the price tag, the series of numbers made him gasp.

One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, one hundred thousand, one million, ten million...

His eyes jumped between the numbers. The more he looked, the colder his heart became. He soon gave up the idea of ​​continuing counting.

“Great, can’t afford it!”

Such a high price is simply an astronomical figure. With his current financial resources, it is nothing short of a pipe dream to want to buy this mega stone.

"Looking at it this way, it seems even more outrageous that the Imperial University is."

Lin Yi muttered to himself as he logged into the official website of the University of Science and Technology of China with skill.

He has always been impressed by the welfare system of the Imperial University. Students can use school points to exchange for various precious materials, including mega stones.

Although the required points are incredibly high, and even if an average student finishes their studies and graduates, they may not even have enough points to accumulate half of that, at least the possibility exists.

Only a wealthy Imperial University could have the guts to give out rare treasures like mega stones as student rewards.

However, Lin Yi does not intend to go the route of accumulating points. To him, time is the most precious asset, and spending a lot of time accumulating points is really not worth it.

"It's just that the Demon City has restrictions on me now. After I challenge the gym, I can go to the Trainer Association branches in other cities to accept missions."

Thinking of this, Lin Yi immediately logged into the official website of the Magic City Gym, clicking his fingers quickly, preparing to make an appointment for the challenge.

However, the three eye-catching words "Closed" on the webpage instantly stunned him.

"No buddy? It's been a week and it's not open yet?"

Lin Yi stared at the screen in disbelief, his face full of confusion.

He recalled that when Lin Guochang was the head of the gym, he would take a maximum of two days off a month, and the rest of the time he operated normally.

This is not because Lin Guochang loves his work so much, it is a rigid rule of the alliance, and other gyms also strictly follow this schedule.

But what happened to the Magic City Gym? It was closed for a week straight.

If this matter were reported to the alliance, according to regulations, the hall might be ordered to close permanently, and the current owner might be forced to give up the position of the Eight Great Halls.

Lin Yi was completely puzzled. What on earth had happened to make the gym behave so abnormally?

"That's it for now, let's eat first."

Lin Yi took a deep breath, temporarily putting aside the confusion and worries in his heart, raised his hand to check the time, and unknowingly it was already lunch time.

He raised his hand to stop a taxi, told his destination, and then leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest.

The car shuttled through the bustling streets of the Magic City, and the noise outside the window gradually faded.

Not long after, the taxi stopped steadily at the gate of a community very close to Shanghai University.

Lin Yi paid the fare, opened the door and walked out.

The community is quiet and shady with green trees, and you can occasionally hear the chirping of birds.

Lin Yi walked into a residential building with familiarity and came to the door of a rather simple house.

He took the key out of his pocket and gently inserted it into the keyhole. With a "click", the door slowly opened.

"Ah, Lin Yi, welcome back."

A clear and sweet voice came from inside the house.

I saw a black-haired girl carrying a plate of steaming food. After hearing the noise, she trotted out of the kitchen like a happy deer with a sweet smile on her face. That smile was like the warm spring sun, which instantly dispelled the haze in Lin Yi's heart.

"Ah, please cook, Mi Yu."

Lin Yi walked into the house and said with a grateful look on his face.

After running around for a whole morning, it feels so warm to be able to have a hot meal when you are tired.

Although it would be better if he could cook for himself, it’s not that Mi Yu’s food is not delicious, but Lin Yi is more accustomed to cooking for himself.

"No trouble."

Mi Yu shook his head gently, placed the plate carefully on the table, then quickly walked to Lin Yi, squatted down and changed his shoes with skillful and natural movements, then helped him take off his coat and hung it on the hanger.

Thinking back to the day when he first arrived in the Magic City, he originally planned to challenge the gym as soon as he arrived in the Magic City and leave after the challenge.

But who could have thought that the gym was closed.

His plans were disrupted and he did not book a hotel in advance, so what happened next was simply a "nightmare of finding a hotel."

He went to all the nearby hotels, but all he got was that they were fully booked.

After all, this is the Magic City, with a huge flow of people, whether it is students coming here to study or dreamers coming here to work hard. It is extremely difficult for him to find an empty room without making a reservation in advance.

Lin Yi even wanted to spend the night in an Internet cafe, but even the Internet cafe was crowded.

As for the Pokémon Center, it was also overcrowded and there was no place for him at all.

Just when he was full of anxiety and at a loss, he accidentally met Mi Yu who was training Pokémon in the park.

Lin Yi explained his predicament to her. After listening to her, Mi Yu said enthusiastically without any hesitation:

"If you don't mind, come live at my house."

Just like that, Lin Yi followed Mi Yu here.

Mi Yu rented this house nearby in order to study at the Magic University. Usually she lives here alone, and Lin Yi has been living here these days.

"You don't have to come here every day to cook. You must be busy with your studies at Demon University, right?"

Lin Yi looked at Mi Yu who was busy in the kitchen without stopping for a moment, and a warm feeling surged in his heart, mixed with a trace of guilt. Finally, he couldn't help but speak.

After all, a single man and a single woman were living in the same room, so he had specifically informed Yaoyao before moving into Mi Yu's house.

But what surprised him was that Yaoyao, who was always jealous in the past, actually agreed with him moving into Mi Yu's house this time. This abnormal attitude really confused him and filled him with doubts.

"I don't come every day, but I want to eat at home these few days."

After greeting Lin Yi, Mi Yu walked back into the kitchen, gently stirring the soup in the pot, lowered her head slightly, and answered softly, as if she was hiding something.

Her hair fell as she lowered her head, covering her slightly red cheeks.

[Oh, Lin Yi is back!]

Just then, a cheerful voice came from the kitchen.

I saw Jirachi flying out from the kitchen, holding a plate of cut fruit salad steadily in its chubby little hands. The crystal juice sparkled with an attractive luster under the sunlight.

Jirachi was holding a salad and excitedly circling around Lin Yi, like a small satellite circling a planet.

Lin Yi looked at the lovely Jirachi with a doting smile on his face. He reached out and gently held Jirachi in his arms, smiling gently:

[What's wrong? Jirachi, so happy?]

"Hey, Mi Yu taught me how to cook today, even though it was just salad."

Jirachi scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly, his little face full of pride and his eyes shining, as if he was telling of an extremely great achievement.
