【...】
A series of exclamation marks represented everyone's shock. Of course, they were not shocked that Daye dared to challenge Shirona, but they were shocked that Shirona actually agreed to let Daye challenge her.
You should know that it was two days ago that Daye was completely defeated by Shirona.
The last time I closed it was three days ago, and the time before that was...
In just one month, he has challenged her no less than eight times, but Shirona hasn't killed him yet. It's simply unbelievable.
[Monkey Brother: Hehe, I don’t know why she agreed so quickly. Usually, I ask her for a long time before she agrees. Maybe she was moved by my spirit. Don’t you have any suggestions?]
The other museum owners were all silent.
If we could give you advice we wouldn't be in this group!
And if you use Infernape to challenge Garchomp, who will die if you don't?
At this time, outside Wutong Gym.
A chubby Jigglypuff was floating in the air, holding its breath.
Its pink body sways gently in the wind like an inflated balloon.
This Jigglypuff moves very cautiously and always manages to find the blind spots of the camera and avoid them.
If you look carefully below Jigglypuff, you can see a black figure holding it.
This person is Bilan.
Chapter 29 Applying
As soon as he landed, Xiao Lan found himself on a plain.
She opened her eyes wide and looked around.
"Eh? I'm not in the wrong place. Wasn't this a gym just now? How did it become a golf course?"
Looking around, there are endless grasslands and mountains in the distance. This area is at least thousands of acres in size.
The last time I saw such a large place was in Professor Oak's backyard.
But Professor Oak's backyard is used for research. What use is there for Lu Yuan, a gym leader, to have such a large backyard?
Is he really too rich?
Other than that, Xiao Lan couldn't think of any other reason.
Walking in the backyard of the gym, the types of Pokémon that can be seen are very rare.
Apart from the nocturnal walking grasses and the iron-shelled pupae hanging on the trees waiting to evolve, the largest number are scorpions.
It seems that there are only these few elves in the entire backyard.
It’s really hard to imagine how this gym can survive with just these few Pokémon.
It’s not that Xiaolan looks down on them, but at least there is a Gem Starfish in the Cerulean Gym that is barely strong enough!
Oh, there’s also a Scorpio King, so it’s okay.
Xiaolan stopped and half-crouched to try not to be noticed.
"Phew... That was close. Looks like it didn't notice me. Next I have to be quiet, quiet..."
Xiao Lan muttered silently in her heart, not even daring to breathe.
"Do you need help?"
At this moment, a sudden voice came from behind Xiao Lan.
"Need not."
Xiao Lan blurted out subconsciously, while waving her hand to refuse.
"......etc."
Xiao Lan suddenly felt something strange in her heart, as if she had sensed something was wrong.
Who was speaking just now?
She slowly turned her head and looked carefully in the direction where the voice came from. Just as she was about to see who it was, her eyes were flashed by a strong light.
The moment she opened her eyes, she was met with the terrifying face that was illuminated by the flashlight, looking extremely pale.
"Ghost!"
Xiao Lan screamed in fear and almost collapsed to the ground.
Hearing Xiao Lan's screams, Lu Yuan quickly turned off the flashlight, and the surroundings suddenly fell into darkness again.
"Oh, kids nowadays are so rude." Lu Yuan sighed helplessly.
Xiaolan came back to his senses from the fright, and when he saw that the person coming was Lu Yuan, he breathed a sigh of relief and took out his hand that was subconsciously reaching for the Poké Ball.
But then he started to complain about the other person: "Really, it's scary to appear behind someone without making a sound!"
?
"This seems to be my home, Miss Thief."
"I wonder if I'll get a banner if I hand you over to Miss Junsha."
After saying that, Lu Yuan picked up his phone and pretended to make a call.
To be honest, if there wasn't a heat sensing system installed in the backyard of the gym, no one would have noticed that Xiaolan had sneaked in.
This is all thanks to my cousin who reminded me to strengthen the gym's security system.
"No, no, no."
Xiao Lan quickly stepped forward to stop him.
"I, I... I'm actually here to apply for a job. Yes, I'm here to apply for a job."
Lu Yuan:......
You sneaked into my house in the middle of the night, and then you told me that you were here to apply for a job. Do you think I'm easy to fool?
Since you treat me as a fool, don't blame me for giving you...
"Signed."
Just when Xiao Lan thought she was finished, she heard Lu Yuan suddenly change the subject.
"I'll go get the contract."
?
Xiao Lan was stunned and stood there at a loss as to what to do.
...Huh? You agree now?
Even Jin wouldn't believe that lame excuse just now...
In fact, Lu Yuan had already planned to recruit people.
The gym is so large that even with the help of Jigglypuff it still can't handle it. What's more, always bothering Xiaoxue to be the referee is not a long-term solution.
Normally, a regular gym would need at least one front desk person to receive guests, one referee, and one back-office person to handle miscellaneous chores.
Xiao Lan's appearance just happens to fill these vacancies. Oh, and with her ability, she can also serve as a security guard.
"If there is no problem, just sign it." Lu Yuan handed over the contract that he had prepared long ago.
To be honest, the development of the matter was completely beyond Xiaolan's expectations.
She has no intention of staying in this gym at all!
Autumn bean sack!
One, two, three, four, five... lots of zeros.
I never dreamed of so much money.
It’s still better to work four days and rest three days!
I'm a little moved, what should I do?
Lu Yuan felt a little nervous as he watched Xiao Lan hesitate to start writing.
"Any questions?"
"No, nothing." After hesitating for a long time, Xiao Lan picked up the pen and signed her name on the contract.
At the same time, two voices in my heart began to argue.
One of the voices angrily accused: "Bilan, Bilan, you actually sold yourself for such a small amount of money. I am really ashamed of you."
Another voice snorted disdainfully: "Humph, it's all for the money, there's nothing to be ashamed of? And I'll only do it for a month, and I'll stop after a month."
Two different voices kept echoing.
In the end, Xiao Lan was willing to give in to the money. He would take the money and run away after working for a month. Yes, just one month.
What was his original purpose? Xiao Lan couldn't remember it for a moment.
She frowned and tried hard to recall... Oh, yes! It was stealing skills!
As long as we figure out Lu Yuan's dirty tricks and then resell them, we will definitely make a considerable income.
Well, now that I have become an employee of this gym, not only can I observe Lu Yuan's every move closely and learn his skills from him, but I can also get a salary naturally. It's the best of both worlds!
Xiao Lan was so happy that she almost jumped up, the joy on her face was beyond words.
On the other side, Lu Yuan was also in a good mood. He chuckled as he looked at the signed contract in his hand.
"Then you will officially report tomorrow. Have a good rest tonight."
Lu Yuan raised his head and instructed Xiao Lan with a smile.
The gym will start operating tomorrow. Lu Yuan believes that with his current fame, there will be a constant stream of people coming to challenge him, and it may even be packed.
Hehe, be low-key, be low-key, don’t be too proud.
......
Chapter 30: Popular, but not popular
Sometimes, being too low-key is not a good thing, like now.
Half a day has passed since the gym opened in the morning, and there is not even a hair at the door!
What exactly is going on?
Is it because I didn't promote it enough?
That shouldn’t be the case. There is obviously a lot of discussion about me online.
Could it be because the gym is too remote?
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xiao Lan, who was dragged by him to receive customers early in the morning.
"Xiao Lan, what do you think about this?"
After hearing Lu Yuan's question, Xiao Lan recalled the battle with Lu Yuan a few days ago.
"...Uh, is there a possibility that the problem lies with you?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
