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

Professor Shang Hefeng had just returned from the toilet in a hurry. When he pushed the door of the conference room warehouse, he saw Lin Yi appearing in the warehouse with a large plate of mouth-watering unknown objects steadily in his hands.

At that time, Zhao Quanyi and four others, who were concentrating on checking all kinds of equipment in the warehouse, put down their work, gathered together, talking and laughing.

Everyone was chewing some delicious-looking snack, with a look of satisfaction on their faces.

"Oh? Professor Shang, would you like some?"

Lin Yi had sharp eyes and spotted Professor Shang Hefeng at a glance. He immediately handed over the plate with a smile on his face. His enthusiasm was as if the plate contained rare treasures.

“I don’t eat sweets…”

Professor Shang Hefeng opened his mouth subconsciously, just as he was about to politely refuse, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lin Yi:

"It's okay. I made salty ones too."

The tone was firm, as if he had expected Shang Hefeng to say this.

"..."

Professor Shang Hefeng was slightly stunned. Looking at Lin Yi's expectant eyes, he knew in his heart that he could not refuse this time.

Helplessly, he reached out and picked up a piece, then put it in his mouth and tasted it with a little hesitation.

Riolu, who had been observing nervously from the side, saw that Professor Shang Hefeng just nodded slightly. He didn't have his clothes exploded like the uncle chef, nor did he glow all over. He breathed a sigh of relief and his tense little body relaxed.

"good,"

Professor Shang Hefeng nodded slightly and gave this brief but meaningful evaluation.

Then, he suddenly changed the subject and asked a question: "Do you know what the characteristics of Xiduolan are?"

Lin Yi was about to answer, but Zhao Quanyi took the lead and said with some certainty:

"Professor, Lin Yi is just a high school student with limited knowledge. How could he possibly know about the mythical beast Xiduolan? This kind of professional question is too difficult for him."

"No, he knows."

There was a strange light flashing in Professor Shang Hefeng's cloudy eyes at this moment. His gaze was like a torch, staring straight at Lin Yi, as if he wanted to see through him.

Under the confused and puzzled gazes of the crowd, Shang Hefeng slowly took out a slightly wrinkled piece of paper from his pocket.

Everyone looked closely and found that it was... a test paper?

"Professor, isn't this the test paper you gave when you were teaching at Qinghai No. 1 Middle School?"

Kuang Zan had excellent eyesight and recognized it at a glance, and couldn't help but blurt it out.

Zizi also took a closer look. When she saw the eye-catching score on the test paper, she was stunned for a moment and subconsciously read out loud:

"Full score?"

Yanan's eyes widened and he exclaimed:

"Even experienced researchers like us would find it difficult to get full marks on such a professional test paper. Whose test paper is this?"

Professor Shang Hefeng said nothing, but just quietly cast his gaze at Lin Yi. Everyone's eyes followed him as if attracted by a magnet, focusing on Lin Yi.

The corners of Lin Yi's mouth twitched slightly.

Why does this professor carry a test paper with him? I don't understand. I don't understand it at all.

Lin Yi coughed lightly, trying to break the awkward deadlock. He forced a bitter smile, which showed a bit of helplessness and embarrassment. He said:

"Professor, this happened so long ago, how come you still have this paper?"

Shang Hefeng's mouth corners slightly raised, forming an imperceptible arc, his eyes were calm but revealing deep meaning, and he slowly spoke:

"Knowledge does not lose its value as time passes. Lin Yi, I have been paying attention to you. Your talent in Pokémon research should not be buried."

"Professor, please stop torturing me."

Lin Yi scratched his head. He didn't expect that the boomerang that had been flying for such a long time would actually hit him.

Um, but it seems like only a few months have passed, which is not that long.

"I don't."

Shang Hefeng was concentrating on pointing at a blank on the test paper.

"This requires you to write three Pokémon that have the ability to attract fire. You wrote Ninetales, Arcanine, and Theodore. Why did you write this?"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at Lin Yi again.

Yeah, why?

Sildenafil is not an ordinary Pokémon known to most people. How could Lin Yi, a high school student, write this answer?

Also, how did he know so much about Xi Duolan? The reason behind this is really puzzling.

“I just think it looks good written this way.”

Lin Yi blinked and gave an unexpected answer.

"nice?"

Professor Shang Hefeng looked confused, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

"Well, two words, three words, four words arranged like this, I feel like it looks good when written."

Lin Yi explained seriously, and he didn't look like he was lying.

Shang Hefeng was speechless. After a moment's pause, he continued to ask, "Then how do you know Xi Duolan's characteristics?"

Lin Yi's expression froze, and he paused before saying, "I have a friend..."

When everyone heard this, they all had an expression of "Do you think we should believe it?" on their faces, and they were all wondering in their hearts: This excuse is too perfunctory.

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't want to say more, everyone tacitly decided not to ask any more questions about this matter.

Yanan leaned over curiously, eyes sparkling, and asked:

"Lin Yi, how did you get full marks? Everyone knows how difficult this paper is."

Lin Yi touched his nose and said a little embarrassedly:

"In fact, I just watch more, remember more, and think more. Pokémon is so amazing that I got hooked. However, compared with you professional researchers, I am still far behind."

"It's not far away. Yanan only scored 98 points in the exam." Zhao Quanyi joked with a smile.

When Yanan heard this, she glared at him and said unhappily:

"92 points of garbage, shut up!"

Zhao Quanyi's face froze, the smile on his face instantly froze, he curled his lips and said no more.

……

The sea breeze was blowing, making people's clothes flutter.

As soon as Lin Yi stepped onto the shaking deck, he heard Ruan Yaoyao yelling angrily:

"Go away!"

Looking up, I saw a large group of long-winged gulls hovering above the deck like a dark cloud, with cunning light flashing in their mung bean-like eyes. They stared at the bag of French fries next to Ruan Yaoyao and Mi Yu with eager eyes. Their sharp claws gleamed coldly in the sunlight, and it was obvious that they would not give up until they got the food.

Mi Yu's Ditto and Buzzbat, as well as Ruan Yaoyao's Scyther and Heartscale, quickly entered combat status.

In order to protect the trainer's food, they tried their best and rushed left and right.

However, there were so many long-winged gulls that they came in wave after wave like a tide.

For a moment, the deck was in chaos and feathers were flying.

Accompanied by the triumphant cries of the long-winged gulls, they finally broke through the defense line, picked up the French fries and flew away.

Only Ruan Yaoyao and Mi Yu were left, with disheveled hair and untidy clothes, holding a feather that they had torn from some long-winged gull in their hands, their faces full of regret.

The four Pokémon also surrounded the two women, panting, with their heads hung, looking very embarrassed.
