January 3rd is a day of despair for most students and social animals.
Of course Xia Chen, who has temporarily got rid of the worries of going to school, is not among them, but today also has a special meaning for him.
That is, today is the day he sets off for the Carlos region.
After buying the ticket, carrying his luggage, and taking the three most important Poké Balls to him, Xia Chen embarked on a journey to a foreign country.
Compared to the Kanto area that Xia Chen had visited, the Kalos area is further away from Donghuang.
After a full ten hours of flight time, Xia Chen set foot on this familiar but unfamiliar land.
Hmm... I've been here in the game, so it's barely familiar, right?
Due to the time difference, the departure time was around 10 am and it was just 1 pm when we arrived in Carlos.
The starting city that Xia Chen chose was the same as Xiaozhi, which was located in the center of the Carlos region, the capital of this region and the most prosperous city of Miare.
What's more, he also came to see Dr. Buratano.
But Xia Chen was not going to receive the Elf Illustrated Book and the Three Yus, but to deliver a letter to Dr. Omu.
This was what Dr. Omu mailed from Zhenxin Town to Zhijiang after he knew that he was coming to the Carlos area.
Xia Chen didn't understand why Dr. Omu would do such a thing of taking off his pants and farting...
Wouldn't it be better to mail it directly to the Buratano Institute in Miare?
Why bother with this?
No, we need to look into it more carefully, why do we need to write a letter?
Today’s online world is so developed, wouldn’t it be enough to just send it via email?
In short, with some unclear confusion, Xia Chen got into a taxi heading to the Bratano Institute in the center of Miare.
…………
As one of the largest international cities in the elf world, Miare City is much larger than what is shown in the game.
The taxi drove for nearly an hour before Xia Chen saw the city's most famous coordinate building, the Prism Tower, through the car window.
"Lalu..."
Lalu pulled open the car window with her silky white hands and looked at the high-tech tower in the distance that was more than two hundred meters high and shining brightly in the sun. Under her short blue hair, her small mouth was wide open.
Ibrahimovic looked out the car window with a nostalgic look at the familiar street scene that was receding, with a slightly thoughtful look in his eyes.
At this point in time, the leader of Miare Gym should still be Citron’s father, right? (This book sets the age of sixteen before debuting, so the magic was changed)
I don’t know how the Flames are currently infiltrating the Kalos region?
But there are still two or three years before that incident happens. At least Xia Chen doesn't have to worry too much about safety issues in the Kalos area during this period...right?
Ibrahimovic had some doubts in his heart.
She didn't know whether it was the onset of her sixth sense caused by her prediction of danger, or whether she was worrying unfoundedly, or whether she had missed a certain point in her memory.
"What's wrong, Eevee, aren't you happy about traveling?"
Feeling something strange about Eevee in his arms, Xia Chen rubbed the soft flesh under the down on her neck.
That was Ibrahimovic's most sensitive place, and Xia Chen tried to use this method to ease her mood.
As for the reason for Ibrahimovic's anomaly being acclimatized...Xia Chen has never considered this issue.
If Ibrahimovic's physique is not acclimatized, he should be in the hospital soon.
"Buyi~"
After half a year of getting along, Ibrahimovic has perfected Xia Chen's "cloth-rolling technique".
The most sensitive area was massaged with the most comfortable technique. Ibrahimovic narrowed his eyes in comfort, and the trace of anxiety of unknown origin in his heart disappeared.
Forget it, if it’s rare to travel, don’t think about it affecting your good mood just because you don’t know whether there are risks.
As soon as he relaxed, sleepiness came naturally, and he yawned. Ibrahimovic curled up and arched into Xia Chen's arms.
…………
Seeing the Prism Tower means that you are not far from the Bratano Institute in the city center.
After about ten minutes of driving, the taxi stopped in front of a group of white buildings with a very research style.
"Guest, I wish you a pleasant trip to the Carlos area."
The well-dressed taxi driver said goodbye to Xia Chen like this.
Xia Chen responded with a smile, "Thank you."
It is said that Miare is a very elegant city both inside and out. Judging from these details, it is true.
Stepping onto the cobblestone path, Xia Chen rang the doorbell of the institute.
Not waiting for two minutes, the sound of footsteps could be heard from behind the iron fence, but the person who opened the door was not a person, but a large fiery red fox that stood upright and was similar in height to Xia Chen.
The final form of the three fire masters in the Kalos region, the demon fire red fox.
"Oh hoo?"
Demon Fire Red Fox, who was also a security guard, looked at Xia Chen and the two pendants on his body, then raised the torch in his hand and stared at the flames intently.
After about half a minute, it opened its eyes and nodded solemnly.
Without seeing it move, the door slowly opened.
"Oh hoo." The demon fire red fox calmly greeted Xia Chen to follow, then turned around and led the way.
Ibrahimovic looked at the back of the demon fire red fox, thoughtfully.
Legend has it that the Demon Fire Red Fox can see through what will happen in the future if he concentrates on the burning flame at the front of the wooden stick.
So, it just predicted that Xia Chen would meet Dr. Buratano, so it let itself in without asking?
Are the elves in the institute already so strong?
…………
Perhaps because it was built in the center of Miare, where land is scarce, the Bratano Research Institute is much smaller than the Nandu Research Institute that Xia Chen went to, but there are also many elves living in it.
On the side of the path, the flowers and leaves that are almost integrated into the flowers are sunbathing comfortably. From time to time, they wave their flower stalks to drive away the pink butterflies that are stationed on their flowers and want to suck honey.
On the grass nearby, the naughty panda and the croaking frog were wrestling with each other using their pure physical strength, but were interrupted by the Digger rabbit that happened to emerge from the soil under their feet.
The two elves, who were staggering and almost falling, looked at each other and decided to turn enemies into friends and teach this guy a lesson together who couldn't understand the situation.
In the garden farther away, Lady Huajie, Dolymia, Aromatherapy, Fatty Ni...many of the characteristic elves of the Kalos region live harmoniously here.
Xia Chen touched his chin and suddenly felt that becoming a doctor with both fame and fortune would be a good idea, as he could also live the life he dreamed of.
However, when he entered the institute and saw Dr. Buratano running between different instruments so busy that he could barely leave the ground, he gave up the idea.
Sure enough, the life of a salted fish gym leader is more suitable for me...
Seeing the demon fire red fox ushering the guests in, the tall and thin Dr. Buratano put down what he was doing.
"Ah, you are Xia Chen who discovered the second evolutionary path of Menas, right? Because the experiment just now was very urgent, and I couldn't do it without it, I asked the demon fire red fox to wait at the door."
Dr. Buratano is a middle-aged man with a handsome appearance and an easy-going temperament. Although he is a bit slovenly due to long-term experiments and has a stubble on his chin, he still shows a charm that makes people like him.
He is indeed the legendary "Dr. Public Lover".
Ibrahimovic on Xia Chen's shoulder was more concerned about another thing. Did the Demon Fire Red Fox know that Xia Chen and he were coming?
Then who were you fooling by just pretending to "predict the future"?
Ibuki glanced at the demon-fire red fox beside him. It was the first time he saw someone who could pretend better than me!
