"… squatting on me? Reporter?"
His eyes widened.
"Some are reporters, and some should be from management companies. Anyway, the number of people will only be more, not less." Ulala took out her cell phone and showed the pictures she had taken to Kashiwagi.
A quick look at the heads of people wearing various uniforms showed that there were indeed as many as she said.
"You have to be careful not to be deceived by the agency, and don't talk nonsense in front of reporters."
Although Ulala looks quite young, she seems to be very experienced in this area.
"Thank you... You are such a good person. You came back specially to remind me."
Kashiwagi also looked at her with new eyes. Not only did she not bear grudges or be stubborn after losing a game, she also praised her opponent sincerely and provided him with such important information.
Ulala blushed when she heard this, "I, I just don't want you to go astray in this regard!"
She turned and ran away.
But just when Kashiwagi thought she had really left, she suddenly poked her head out from behind the door and warned him seriously, "Don't ever agree to any conditions from any agency!"
"it is good."
Seeing Kashiwagi nod, Ulala retracted her head.
This time she really left.
"This little girl is unexpectedly cute." Kashiwagi couldn't help but smile at the big-mouthed kid, "Don't you think so?"
"嘁哚~"
Big Mouth Wa thought he was talking about Ulala's strength, recalled the story of the fish leaping over the dragon gate, and nodded in a condescending manner.
Having just achieved the result, Big Mouth Baby’s self-confidence inevitably swelled a little.
Nothing to do.
Kashiwagi opened his phone and checked the Pokéblog. He followed many bloggers and officials of the Gorgeous Contest, and sure enough, the big data pushed the video of his competition to him.
The number of likes surprised him.
"Two hundred thousand likes?" Kashiwagi clicked on the comment section and saw that the first comment was from Mikoli, and it was pinned to the top.
Mikoli: "Very interesting dance. Although he is weak to fire, he uses spinning techniques to mitigate the problem of fire. His control over electromagnetic floating is also superb. The connection between the moves is very smooth, which is quite good. And this big mouth baby is well cultivated, with a hazy feeling of a girl! Looking forward to this coordination trainer to participate in the Mikoli Cup!"
Mikoli Cup.
It is a special Pokémon Grand Contest organized by him, where performers will be found all over the world. The Water Column Medal won by the winner can be used in grand celebrations in any region, so it will gather coordinated trainers from all over the world.
It was here that Xiaoguang defeated Xiaoyao with the "home advantage" and won the medal.
No wonder so many people are stuck outside.
Opening the Pokémon communication, Lukia had already sent nearly fifty messages. Even though Kashiwagi hadn't replied to any of them, she was still as enthusiastic as ever.
Kashiwagi: "Sorry, I just opened the communication."
Lucia: "It's okay, it's okay. I'd like to thank you for not irritating you with my noise, and congratulations~!"
Lucia: "You won the ribbon in your debut battle, you are really awesome!"
She sent five or six gifs of the bluebird spewing smoke on the Chinese Valentine's Day.
Kashiwagi: "Thank you for the compliment. It's also because you taught me well before. Master has shown me the way~"
Lucia: "Huh? Am I your teacher? Hahaha! I see! 」
Kashiwagi smiled silently. Although he said it in a joking tone, strictly speaking, Rukia was indeed his teacher.
Chapter 256 Special Funds
Evening sunset.
Baimu rubbed his sore eyes, closed the blog and stopped reading the comments, looking at the desktop with a bit of melancholy.
Not long ago, Shan Min, who was far away in Orei, sent a congratulatory message.
Even though I told him early on that I decided to participate in the gorgeous competition, he was still staying up late at night to read blogs and watch live broadcasts, and even called him. This guy is really free.
When Kashiwagi was complaining like this, he said, "How can a little brother of the Rainbow team not watch the boss's game?"
He also said that almost all members of the Rainbow Team watched it, and some even watched it together in groups, which was as lively as a holiday.
That sounds shameful enough.
Baimu subconsciously developed an urge to never return to Huangtie Town.
However, in addition to congratulating, Shan Min called to bring good news of his own. Next month he will officially take office as county magistrate... No, he will officially take office as mayor of Huangtie Town.
During the month of someone's happy journey, he conscientiously completed one task after another in rebuilding and developing Huangtie Town, and was unanimously recognized by the rescue organization.
"After I take office, it will be easier to deal with your operational funding issues."
Shan Min chuckled.
Kashiwagi was a little worried. "Can the operation funds be approved? Are you planning to abuse your power for personal gain?"
"What are you talking about! Do you think I'm the kind of person that Ergin is? Just tell me whether you want it or not!"
"Serious funding is definitely needed..."
"If you want to, stop talking nonsense. Chatting with you is really annoying! I'm busy all day and can't sleep well, but I'm still worried about your financial situation. Is this how you repay me?"
"I'm just afraid that you'll go down the path of crime..."
"Ha, if I were to commit a crime now, it would only be murder. I'd rush to Hoenn and chop you to death with a single blow!"
The two of them were joking around.
Although it is not clear under what name Shan Min will send the money in the end, it is still very touching that he has always been concerned about his own financial situation.
However, he also mentioned that one should never be deceived by any agency, no matter how high the price they offer.
With the previous experience of Lucia in mind, how could Kashiwagi jump into this trap?
Shan Min and Ulala were really overthinking it.
After hanging up the phone, Kashiwagi continued to browse the blog until now, and then he left the venue of the gorgeous competition with the staff who came to close the venue.
As soon as I went out, I found reporters lying in ambush.
Fortunately, he was wearing a hat and was close to several staff members next to him, so he was not caught.
To be honest, the most gratifying thing is that the privacy in the Pokémon world is sufficient, so that his identity and mobile phone number are not exposed. In his previous life, he would not have the opportunity to play with his mobile phone for so long, and his number would have been blown up long ago.
At this moment, not only has the mobile phone number not been exposed, but the hotel I am staying in is also not crowded.
“It’s been a busy day.”
Kashiwagi sighed, threw himself on the bed and stayed there like a corpse for a while, then blindly opened the Poké Ball to release all the Pokémon, lazily not wanting to move.
"lucky?"
Chansey moved closer to the bed, and it keenly noticed that the trainer's condition was different from usual.
"I don't want to cook, so you cook for us, Jellyfish." Kashiwagi turned his head and said lazily to Jellyfish.
The room we booked has its own kitchen, but there is no open flame and we use an induction cooker.
"lucky!"
The pink little egg agreed very understandingly. It learned to cook just to share the pressure with Kashiwagi, but in most cases it could only help out.
Now that it has the opportunity to show its ability, it naturally won't let it go.
The single-headed dragon jumped onto the bed, and very naturally laid its head on the trainer's back, grabbing his other hand.
"It's so heavy... Why doesn't he bite the one that's closer instead of the one that's closer?" Kashiwagi let out a sigh of helplessness, and then saw the Galar Sun Coral fall in front of him.
A pair of red eyes lit up and looked at him.
Kashiwagi: “…What?”
"Throat~"
"You're speaking in such a hoarse voice, I can't understand you." He said he didn't understand, but he actually guessed it. It was saying that there was no training all day, and it wouldn't play overtime at night to make up for the daytime.
This guy is just like an office worker.
Seeing this, Galar Sun Coral was too lazy to talk too much with Kashiwagi, the "black-hearted boss", and simply turned off the microphone.
Anyway, he will definitely tell me when the time comes to fight or train.
Seeing that it ignored him, Kashiwagi gave up arguing with it and continued to fall into a state of nothingness facing the quilt, trying to imagine himself as a stone.
A poor stone being weighed down by a single-headed dragon.
By the time he came to his senses, Jellyfish's dinner was ready and Big Mouth Wa came over to call him to eat.
"Well, I didn't expect to be able to go back to a life where food and clothing are provided for me."
Kashiwagi's middle finger gently touched the single-headed dragon's upper fangs, and the latter immediately understood and opened its mouth, raised its head, jumped over his body and jumped under the bed.
"Nah!"
"The vitality feature is good."
He pulled a handful of the hair that looked like the horn of a single-headed dragon. The white color that he had dyed it with was gradually fading away. It would probably be completely gone in less than a week.
Re-dyeing... Actually there is no need for that. The original purpose of dyeing the white hair is to make it easier to distinguish.
Now, even if a hundred single-headed dragons come to him, he can easily recognize which one is his hand-biting little dragon.
Come to the dining table.
The dishes are richer than expected.
Obviously, Jellyfish put a lot of thought into making sure he had a good meal.
"Thank you~"
Kashiwagi stroked the pink little egg's furry head and ate it with relish.
You know what, although Jellyfish doesn't have the memory of watching the chef every night like him, he has learned about 60% of the cooking skills. If you look closely, you can see a hazy light on the dishes.
Most people might think that it was made with fluorescent agent, but Kashiwagi knew that it was a sign that the luminous cuisine had reached a basic level.
