Chapter 316: Rebellious Joey! And the Gift from Auntie!
"Don't be angry, Senior Sister. It's all my fault for not having a good impression of him..."
Xuxiang knew the abilities of his senior schoolmate, but he knew her weaknesses even better.
Although his combat talent is very good, his underestimation of the enemy and irritable personality are also obvious problems.
Especially when you get angry, it is very easy to be led by the other party.
But as long as she can keep her composure and fight the enemy seriously, even a powerful dean will have to be fully prepared to deal with her offensive.
"My Xorbat is still in good condition. Senior, please send out the backup Pokémon. As long as it can hold steady..."
"I know, I know—why are you as nagging as my mom?"
Taohua pretended to be impatient and slapped Xuxiang's hand away.
In fact, after seeing the concerned expression on her junior's face, most of her anger had dissipated.
However, the doubles mode in the tower only allows each tower owner to send out two Pokémon.
If she lost another Pokémon, Xu Xiang would have to face the two challengers alone.
"The second game won't be so easy..."
Momoka turned her gaze back to Shizuka.
"Since you want to target me, then - let me show you my trump card!"
"?"
Shizuka looked around, and finally tentatively pointed her right index finger at herself.
However, the other person's eyes were still fixed on him.
No! This tactic against Pipi was not commanded by her at all? !
"Since you are also a trainer who bears the name of Joey... come out - Happy Egg!"
Joey Taohua threw out her first Poké Ball with a serious face.
"Happy~"
Jilidan Pro appeared on the battlefield.
"what?"
Shizuka was really at a loss now.
She really didn't know that she had a relative among the tower masters before.
"what?"
Wang Yao looked in surprise at the straw hat on Shizuka's head that was used to conceal her identity.
Isn’t this disguise thorough enough?
It’s obvious that Meow Meow could disguise himself as a human child in front of Junsha by just wearing a hat!
"She's also Joey? Looks like the senior is going to be serious..."
Xuxiang swallowed his saliva. Shizuka's disguise was actually hidden enough, at least he didn't see it.
But the telepathy between them couldn't be hidden from Joey (wrong).
"You are... Aunt Liya's daughter, right?"
Shizuka tried hard to recall for a long time before she remembered that there really was such a 'rebellious Joey' in her family.
And the other person happens to be a few years older than me.
However, rather than being a Pokémon nurse, I prefer to be a trainer and command Pokémon to fight.
While studying at nursing school, she transferred to a competing school on her own despite her family's opposition. I heard that she was later admitted to a famous competing university abroad.
But because of this, I have a very bad relationship with my family and have not participated in family gatherings for several years.
As a result, Shizuka knew very little about it.
"You call that old woman aunt? Um... Masa-sister isn't married yet, and Misa-sister's daughter is still in school... So you are Saori-sister's daughter?"
Joey Momoka tilted her head and thought for a long time before she reversed the deduction from Shizuka's address.
"Wait, I remember that her two daughters have graduated from nursing school and become official nurses... Could it be that..."
Joey Taohua frowned, as if he thought he had remembered it wrongly.
"Yes...but I have already resigned from the Pokémon Center and am currently traveling to become a Pokémon Inspector."
Shizuka nodded awkwardly.
How come a good battle scene turned into a family reunion meeting...
And why is it that during the discussion, the other party turns out to be a generation older than me?
They look only two or three years apart.
"You quit your job too? And you're planning on becoming the Pokémon Inspector?!"
Joey Taohua's eyes shone like stars, as if she had found a soulmate in her life.
“Woohoo! That’s awesome!!”
Joey Taohua left his teammates behind and didn't care about the tower defense challenge anymore, he just skipped across the battlefield.
Then he pounced and hugged Shizuka.
"See~ I told you - giving up medicine and embracing martial arts is the only way out for our Joey family!"
Joey Momoka took out her cell phone at some point, raised her hand and took a photo with Shizuka while she looked at him with a confused expression.
Then I opened the Pokémon Circle and started editing the text.

"Ding dong~"
Shizuka, whose brain was at a standstill, suddenly heard a crisp notification sound from her pocket.
The Pokémon Circle group [Happy Family] has new message reminders.
"I'm talking to my niece Shizuka..."
"Well, should I call you niece?"
Joey Taohua put away his phone, straightened his back and said.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter, anyway..."
After she was sure that she was a full half a centimeter taller than Shizuka, she put her heels down, put her hands behind her back and continued speaking.
"…The road to becoming a Pokémon Inspector is full of difficulties and obstacles - but don't worry! As long as your aunt is here, no problem will be a problem!"
Joey Taohua raised her hand and patted Shizuka's shoulder, her words full of passion.
"Uh...actually I can do that."
Shizuka shrank her shoulders in embarrassment.
She had discussed her resignation with her family. Not only did her parents support her, but she also had her champion boyfriend by her side.
As long as she takes steady steps, becoming a Pokémon Inspector will not be a problem for Shizuka.
No matter what, I am definitely not a "fellow traveler" in the eyes of the other party.
"Hey - why are you being so polite to your aunt?"
How could Joey Taohua let go of this cute junior who had turned from evil to good?
"Take it, take it. These are what your aunt can't finish. Use them to nourish Jilidan's body."
As he spoke, the other party took out a handful of purple candies from his pocket and forced them into Shizuka's hands.
"what?"
Shizuka's hand froze in mid-air, not knowing whether she should put it down.
"Xuxiang! Xuxiang, you little brat, why don't you come here quickly!"
Joey Taohua touched his pocket, seemed to think the gift was too light, and turned around and shouted to his junior.
"Oh, okay... I'm here, Senior."
Xuxiang just thought that the senior sister had met her relatives for a rare occasion and was in a good mood, so she planned to take him to meet some people.
"Bring it here."
But when I ran up to it, I only saw a small hand stretched out in front of me.
"Ah? What do you want?"
Xuxiang stared blankly at the little hand in front of him.
[Senior’s hands are so small. He looks so cute despite his strong aura…]
Looking at the white little hands in front of him, somehow, this was the only thought left in his mind.
"You talk too much nonsense!"
Joey Taohua didn't care about that and reached out to take out another handful of purple candies from the other person's pocket.
"Come on, if it's not enough, I'll have plenty at my aunt's place~"
Joey Momoka smiled warmly, trying hard to act like an "elder" in front of Shizuka.
